SALUTATIONS! 8D So I just joined after I forced persuaded my friend Strider to give me the link. I've read through the majority of the guides here and just have a couple of questions on some things that weren't entirely clear to me.

• As of now, are all custom kekkei genkai banned or merely the ones listed in the first post of the updated banned list?
  
  
• If we're making a Genin, are we automatically assigned to a squad or is it our prerogative to form one on our own?
  
  
• Once we choose a difficulty [say, easy] can we "up" the difficulty once we become more accustomed to the site or is it "stuck" at that level?
  
  
• As far as the grading system goes, what about solo-threads? Or one-shots? What I mean by this is one long continuous post [or several smaller ones] made by one person for the sake of storyline advancement, or training, or some kind of "flashback"? Am I making sense here? How would those be graded, if they would be at all?
  
  
• Lastly, could we leave our jutsu/KG/whatever else blank and come back to register for those at a later time or is it expected that we start off with something immediately?

I apologize if any of these were covered elsewhere. You guys have a lot of information to sort through so its entirely likely I missed something. @_@

[/b][/color] All custom kekkei genkai are banned, which means that you can't create any new ones that we don't have on our site. The banned list explains which ones we have on the site you can't go in to at the moment due to either they don't want them released yet, or if there's too many on the site already.

[2] You have to join a squad yourself- Go to the OOC of your chosen village (I believe most have one by now!) and try and get some activity going!

[3] You can! I think that once every 30 days you're allowed to change your difficulty. So- You could start off on the easy setting and then once you feel you're ready, you can PM an admin/lead mod [It's usually admin but I don't see why we can't do it, really, haha] and we'll permit you to use it. Of course- This means that you can't go down. If you decide to go to advanced, you can't change it back to easy or medium. The only way is up!

[4] Solo threads are graded the same as any other threads. 10 EXP is the maximum you can get for ANY post.

[5] If you start off without a touta/clan/blood limit, you're given 1000 EXP. You don't have to put this in to anything and you can get your character accepted without any jutsu added to your profile, and your EXP will be added to your sidebar (the counter that says EXP: (number here) beneath your icon, which will show how much EXP you can use to buy techniques in shops. With your acculmated EXP you can go to the jutsu shop forum and then go onwards to purchase techniques, if that makes sense.

So when you start off; If you want to start off with no techniques and have your EXP added to your sidebar to use later on, just state it somewhere in your profile.

Thanks for the help. ^_^; And once again, I'm sorry if this was redundant. I have a hard time retaining information when I read a lot. >_<
