Heres a few guidelines to help with those who wish to learn a Jutsu and the only one avaliable is a DM.
Follow these simple guildelines and we will have you hurling fire and lightening in no time:
Step 1: The Wish List
When you ask to learn a jutsu have a few jutsus on a wish list you wish to learn. One thing better would be to post this wishlist on your characters bio so we(DMs) can look at it and know what it is you wish to learn and slowly push you down that path. I know personally nothing irritates me more then someone asking to learn a jutsu and then when I ask what they want to learn I get a "I dont know...". Well at that point "I dont know" if I want to take time to teach you when theres other players to attend too.
Step 2: The Request
The best way is to send a PM here on the forums to a DM and they arrange to meet you in game to teach you on a time you both can make it. If in game then use the DM Chat channel... begging in party isn't a good idea and often flooding Party with nonsense will attract the wrong kind of attention from DMs. Remeber be kind, rewin-... err... Request.
Step 3: ROLEPLAY
While a DM is teaching you keep in mind we are also evaluating your RP skills... if you roleplay learning a jutsu with "*tries again*" or "*handsigns again*"... 1) your not getting any rp tokens for good rp and 2) your liable not to be used as a rp pivot point later. ("rp pivot point"= is a player/character that has developed alot of story and rp plots around their character that DMs can use to build on to make personal or server rp events) Also if you roleplay very well and end up shy a few DC points of learning a jutsu its not unheard of for a DM to let you have the jutsu at that point after showing excelence in rp and attempt to learn a Jutsu.
Step 4: Don't Talk Back
Dont argue... if you end up 3 points of a DC shy learning a jutsu and a DM says you can finish it the next day agree and go on. Curse your dicebag not the DM. Nowhere does it say that your a "genius" and you will learn every jutsu in one session. Also see Step 3 if you have to rp again to finish learning a jutsu and earned a RP Token the previous time a second session is another chance to earn another RP Token for those who are good at RP.
Step 5: Limitations
This is the biggest one here on this post every player and DM are held to this rule.
1 jutsu a day...
2 Jutsu's a week...
Noone is Orochimaru, you will never know EVERY jutsu on the server.
DMs talk with other DMs informing them of how many jutsu's they have taught who, so don't try to pull a fast one on the staff you may not like the punishment. Also players are to uphold this rule. If we as DMs catch someone learning 3-4 jutsu's a week or 2 in a day they will lose one of the jutsu's they learned and be required to learn it again at a later date.
