| I voted no, mainly because it sounds like some people's hard work would get deleted. Though it doesn't matter much to me if it doesn't affect our avatar and items. I don't think I have done anything with the battle system at all, to be honest. I guess if deleting them is something really necessary then okay, I just hope it won't mean people wasted a lot of time on something for nothing.

| Wait, so we would lose all our stats?
I don't really like the idea then, It took me forever to get to where I am in stats >.>

| I JUST got my second level, so I'd much rather not lose that work. xD;
I mean, rolling for stats, buying weapons, killing monsters, tapping attack, repairing repairing repairing... @ _@; Yeah, I'd rather not.
BUT! If it brings about a new and improved battle system... I think I could cope. Go for it if ya gotta!

| If this sort of thing does go down, could we at least have a warning so that we can copy our character's bio for future use or something? Some of the people around here seem to put a lot of effort and writing into their character bios and I'd hate to see them lose that. (Check out the bio of Afanassii's character to know what I mean)

| I voted no, not because I've put a lot of effort into my character or anything, but on principal. The fact that this site was released to the public with an incomplete battle system in the first place aside, it's unprofessional to force an overhaul like that including character deletion without an initial disclaimer that there is a possibility of such a thing happening. Midoreans, as far as I know, are not Midorean Beta Testers, and have been under the impression that the work they put toward their characters is meaningful.
I don't mean to be overly harsh, but when you release a site publicly (advertising and all), while it is expected that the site will evolve, grow, and get better, which I'm sure this update you're planning will do, it is also expected that such changed will occur in the background. Once you've released your site to the public, it is no longer the responsibility of the users to give up their characters, but your responsibility to go the extra mile in doing those extra lines of code or conversion to move old characters to a new system. Would several hours of downtime be acceptable? Sure. But a complete deletion of the entire character base? Not in my opinion.

Actually, the battle system WAS complete and functioning properly when we opened(what do you think we were doing when we opened for beta testers?), the glitches I mentioned before were only recently discovered. (and the cause of the glitches occurred way after we went public)
The only way to fix the errors in the character sheets is to fix the cause, and even then the glitched character sheets cannot be fixed because they are corrupted. This, I know, does not call for a mass deletion BUT I was hoping in the meantime I would be able to add more specifications to character sheets(make race and tribe two separate characteristics etc.) and overhaul a few battle system related features, the first of which would require all users to re-create their character so that they would work with the new specifications.
From the very beginning, before we opened, I had always planned to do a mass deletion.
But since the battle system was functioning properly, I saw no need to. It wasn't until recently when I discovered the glitches that I re-considered the mass deletion.

|
| by the way, when will the characters be deleted?
because we can't battle unless it is changed, right?
