Training and Increasing Tier suggestion

If you complete eight successful training threads, you should possibly get a rise to the next tier or skill upgrade. This will really make members work for what the powers they want and horn they're RP skills. Of course, for different tier's, we'd have to work this out.

I recently read you have to complete 8 training threads to go up a single tier. Does anybody realise how long, tedious and off putting that is? Just going from 2-2 to 2-2+ would be a nightmare and everyone that wants to grow stronger would just give up because it's too much effort. I can understand where you would get those people that just solo train and demand a tier rise, eventually spamming simple threads but at least give a chance to those that aren't doing that. The rest of the Training idea's I completely agree with.

for 3 tiers, you could be seeing 50+ threads JUST to get to a respectable point and even that isn't going to satisfy. I seriously don't like this idea because I recently got a 5-4 character, and is she going to ahve to train 8 threads to get to 5-4+? Another 8 to get to 5-3? That to me is just a piss take.

thus I suggest we stick with that sort of thing, but do it this way:


5 tier: 1 training thread to boost against any opponent
4 tier: 2 training thread to boost against any opponent
3 tier: 2 training thread to boost against similar or higher tier or alone
2 Tier: 3 training thread to boost against similar or higher tier or alone
1 tier: 3 training tier to boost against similar or higher tier or alone
0 tier: 5 Training thread to boost until 0-3, special conditions to get higher against similar tier


This would be subject to change, but I just find that 8 just to boost ever so slightly is tedious, off putting and plain annoying. like this, at least people will know they can increase themselves given they have easier to attain goals that get harder as they go along.

Also those at powerless level would shit themselves. getting that high would take them months of constant RP which is fine and all, but for a single character? and that long?

Wait so your telling me that 8 training threads for a +........ that is outragoues it would just be better to do tier rise at that rate unless of course your oh tier then I can see 8 training threads. I'm agreeing to this now that i see jumps won't be like 1-2 to 1-1. this gets my stamp of approval as well and aslso Chazoi you could always use Tier rise instead of this training thing remember that. more than on way to get a tier boost.

Ok then @ frost

I admit that may have been a stupid thing to write however iv'e only just realised that thread even existed. I wouldn't have if you hadn't pointed it out to me and that does remove the reason im annoyed at this.

thus ill have a read through that but, I didn't even know we had a thread with that information down. I was ALWAYS under the assumption it was plain training threads tbh.
