New Ranking System

Sench · New Ranking System

The new ranking system gives us more realistic strength rankings by separating a character's title and actual combat strength. Now, all characters will start as E-rank Genin. Progressing through ranks will be similar to how it was in the past, but progressing through titles (genin, chuunin and jounin) will now be done only through exams and at the discretion of your village's Kage.
There are several ways to advance in rank:

Rank training.
It remained the same as it was with the previous ranking system, except now you don't gain a new title when you rank train and you can rank train twice.
Exams.
Chuunin and jounin exams are a common way to advance in rank, but note that they're focused around gaining a new title. A genin can only participate in chuunin exams, and a chuunin can only participate in jounin exams. A genin of E or D rank will advance one rank if he successfully passes the chuunin exams, but a genin of a C or higher rank will only gain a new title. A chuunin of C or B rank will advance one rank if he successfully passes the jounin exams, and a chuunin of E or D rank will advance two ranks if he successfully passes the jounin exams, but a chuunin of A or higher rank will only gain a new title.
Events.
RPG events held by the administration can earn you a rank advancement if you display good RP skill and use your character to the fullest.
Training.
That's right, you heard me. You can now advance your rank through simple training! If you are a character of E or D rank, you can advance a rank by simply reaching the maximum amount of jutsus for your rank and being at that rank for at least a month (real time). If you are a character of C, B or A rank, you can advance a rank by simply reaching the maximum amount of jutsus for your rank and being at that rank for at least two months (real time). Purchased auto-learned jutsus don't count, so if you are B rank, and bought 5 auto-learn jutsus, you must have 17 jutsus total (in addition to all basics) to advance in this manner.

Much like before, when you kill off a character of a certain rank, you are allowed to make a new one of two ranks below. Also, when you kill off a character of a certain title, you are allowed to make a new one of one title below.
