Had an idea. A universal contract that new rp'ers get by default. An rp mod who makes the thread will post "one" basic land animal and "one" basic flying animal (This will in no way count to the mods contracts or even be the mods contracts). The new RP'er chooses the one species that they want and posts signing the scroll. The contract will come with 5 basic elemental summoning animals and one basic animal that doesn't have any abilities and will be there just for those who do not have any elements mastered to summon the elemental summoning's. The signer will get the summoning animals automatically, just like in the anime, you can summon animals just by signing a contract. If they want more, then they have to submit more. It essentially makes new rp'ers easier to get a summoning animal which by now so many animals are taken, eventually it will be even harder to find one for the generations to come. It also means that less people will be submitting contracts and summoning animals as if they can get one for free, it makes it less of a need for people unless they want one of their own. This would cut down on submissions of contracts and contract jutsu over all and would be giving to the newer generations, making things just a bit easier and more accessible and really invites people more into the RP. Thus, the newer gen get's a summoning animal, jutsu submission is cut down just a little bit more even if it's by only 5-10% and everyone is more happy.

So basically you want to give others for free what we originally had to work hard for? Getting them approved and all.

Then also, are these summons going to be able to be used like all those who have Cannon Contracts? And if so, then you will have to allow all those who have custom contracts the same or else it would not be fair. There are millions of animals in the world. I can name one badass animal right now that isnt taken yet that I was going to make but decided to wait on it a bit.

Last time I checked everything had to be earned or learned on this site. What you are suggesting is to give stuff away for no real reason.

5 basic elemental summoning animals and one basic animal that doesn't have any abilities and will be there just for those who do not have any elements mastered to summon the elemental summoning's. The signer will get the summoning animals automatically, just like in the anime, you can summon animals just by signing a contract.

You're essentially giving newcomers jutsu that they don't even fully understand how to use as of yet because they have not gotten training. This will lead to even more arguing in battle than normal. Cut down on CJ submissions maybe, but you decrease the workload there and increase it on Sensei, who half already don't like checking nonessential battles in the first place.

Half the fun of NB is trying to obtain what others have gotten through hard work. To give it away is just........wrong. IMO.

That seems rather selfish imo, if you can do something nice that benefits everyone then it should be done. Saying that everyone should work for their summoning animal or it's not fair is rather flawed as people can sign contracts without needing to go through any trouble aka creating one.

No, as I said, they would have to master elements to get the elemental summonings. Example, the user cannot use the water summoning until they master the water element. However, they will get a basic summoning animal that has no abilities. I fail to see how it could lead to more arguing. It's simple, they get a basic summoning animal. No big deal. There isn't any reason why anyone would argue. It's the same as if someone had just signed a contract.

It's just a basic pre chosen animal. If they want a special summoning of their own, they still have to submit one.

or orochimaru

or for taods tehre j man naruto minato if you want an owal contract make a motoi bio if you wnat sharks make kisame ( and some otehr filler/game char that sued it) bats make that old guy from the six tails filler ( its also a custom contract) if you wnat slugs make tsunade not that hard.

and if you make a bio with a contract like j man you already get gamabunta gameken gamahiro its quite op that they get canon contracts auto by making those bios but thats how it works.

So when we first came to this site it was selfishness by the others that made us have to come up with our own ideas, CJ, CE, CEJ, animals? No. It an RP for a reason. If everything was handed to us then it wouldn't be fun. I'd take the same approach if I was I newcomer. The people that want to have things handed to them are the ones that aren't willing to work for it.

We were willing to work, and now we are just gonna GIVE it to them.

All I hear out of their mouths is complaining because "All of the good animals are taken." No, that just means that they have a limited knowledge of what animals/insects there are in the world and how dangerous they are and that they are too lazy to put in the effort to find out and then submit it to get approved.

Just wait. You're gonna give them these two summonings, then they are gonna complain about wanting more.

You are taking my posts wrong. I never said the hard work was selfish, I never said the rp is selfish in anyway. I said that if there is a way to help a group of people and you can do it then you should. Like a rich man who refuses to donate to a charity saying that he grew up tough and so should they. It would be a basic animal contract, nothing special about it, if they want anything more, they'd either have to submit jutsus for it and get it approved or submit a new contract for themselves.

Don't group the whole new gen together. I'm new and IMO I'd rather not have this happen. I would rather work for the contract, then I would feel like its mine or that it's special. Oraan your right most of my generation of Rpers bitch and complain. That's another reason I don't think we deserve it. They non stop complain about senseis and their bios not being approved and have no sense of patience what so ever. Oraan what your saying is true but not true of all new rpers.
@yard the idea is alright but like I said IMO I would rather work for something than getting is right off the bat and the new gen doesn't deserve it at all.

Point there lol. Tho, hate to see majority of bad people ruin it for the rest. This is just a small idea off the top of my head tho. :p

I like this idea, it will attract more people, so the new people don't get completely overwhelmed. This way they feel like they have done something and aren't discouraged by not getting training or whatever.

I think it sounds like a good idea although I don't plan on participating in the RP battle section.

Good luck to your idea Yard and thank you for thinking about the new guys. Stay awesome. ;3

I don't agree nor do i see any point in it. It would be the same as having everyone have elements auto just because... Or giving people CE's made by us or CJs made by us. No. It has no point what so ever.

The point of having your own summoning contract is to create and make something unique to yourself and your fighting style. Its not a simple tool. Its something you invest in to develop and give birth to your creative side. Its not a tool.

I guess the thing is that people look at summoning contracts and Cjs the same way: some random power to be held. But it isn't. Custom summons and Cjs are a way to make your ideas turn into a move that complements your own fightning style. Having other peoples cjs or summons made by others just because defies that principle and kills the objective of allowing custom things.

If our objective would be to make things for members to use (non cannon things that is) then what is the point of CJs, CFS, CE's, Custom Contracts, Etc etc etc? Then we'd create a random bunch of all of that, available to everyone and abolish the custom system all together.

Besides, at Jounin Rank you can submitt your contract. Tons of animals are still free. People just keep submitting cat variations (tiger, lions, cheetahs, etc etc), mythical summons or eagle/falcon variations which have all been done and are all taken. The problem isn't the lack of animals but the lack of imagination.

McKnockout for example submitted recently a very unique contract with many possibilities, same as lili or some member (sorry as i don't remember the name) who submitted hedgehogs. Its still possible to submit unique and cool animals. As long as that is possible, no need to implement something like this

But I thought we couldn't just submit any animal? I wanted to submit a Kappa a long time ago but someone said it has to be real. :/
