I want to make a special note in addition to Memory's posting on profiles.
In light of the addition of 3 new characters, I believe it is time to address this issue that I KNEW would need to be covered eventually.
**It is STRONGLY encouraged to use NEW characters in FFT. Using existing ones, personally, I strongly discourage because it shows lack of creativity and as well as it being restricting to base other characters off that character.
**Secondly....anyone making a new profile TRY to make a totally ORIGINAL character, not based/related to an old character.
I know this is difficult to do, and I don't mind them being based on old characters, but here's some categories that are closed off. Some people that have been w/ the site for a very long time are getting closer to having their toes stepped on. So if you feel like making a character related to the following categories you need to make a post to see if people in these categories will accept you. It's just getting too cluttered w/ people making similar profiles.
Squall (Done, it's been beaten to death. I'd prefer no one else related to him, looking like him, etc....)
Edea/Cloud Strife/Genova/etc.. This is another locked, no more people doing this. It's also filled by a couple other characters as well as a handful of others having references and major links to their characters to it.
Summons Trio was the first to tap into this, but any summons/GFs/aeons/espers be careful. These are meant to be summons to summoners...not playable characters. I don't mind so much the 1/2 breed characters, but still be careful when making them.
Loire Our first character here related to this was a daughter of Laguna. Since then Laguna has joined us and I see there has been major moves to that story as well as an issue here. This is locked up as well.
Rydia/Edge I myself have covered this topic very well from FFIV and want to lock it off completely. There is nothing more to be said of it.
ANY OTHER CHARACTER that wants me review an area to be monitored on new character profiles please send a private message to myself as Infinity or Airlia OR to Memory. We will review then find out who's profiles you will be coming close to and contact those individuals to have them also review your profile. If they clear it and we clear it then it will be posted.
I'm sorry this has to happen, but to protect the integrity of the site and older members it needs to be done. Kind of on a first come first serve basis. REMEMBER....profiles can always be altered later on down the road. SO if you can figure out a way to link your bio in w/o stepping on other people's feet then its ok!
Remember...your best bet is just to make an original character!
