If things work the way I expect in-process, I'm going to be completely redoing the class system. Instead of having the usual linear class progression, I'm going to be working on class trees. It will consolidate all classes (including the rather unusual and confusing secondary classes) into the same system, and will allow basically unlimited goals and a lot more ways to customize your character.
No longer will you be locked into a single class... You will be free to work up multiple class lines, and within those classes choose the specific skill lines that you desire. The more points you put into one line, the further up you can go, and you'll eventually be capable of unlocking higher tiers of classes or specialties. Or, if you wish, you can be a jack-of-all-trades. It would be up to you.
This system will also allow for characters to physically have more abilities. I plan to gear it so new members can have quicker progression (by a bit), and so older or more active members can work up to some rather potent abilities.
All classes are going to be incorporated in some way. Also, with placing points into a base class ability or certain specific skill boxes, you will be granted titles that you can optionally use. You can use them to identify your character with a class for roleplaying.
Anyway, I thought that I would elaborate on the direction I plan to take DStorm in the near(ish) future. Feel free to post feedback.

Yay!!! New class system! From what you just posted, it sounds like a mix between Final Fantasy Tactics and the Guildwars attribute system. Good luck with it, and if you need any help, we're here for you!

CSPACE IS GOD
Proof That Darky is, in fact, evil:
Snowy: Lo'.

Snowy: It was for loser. Not for hello.
Darky: ...
Snowy: XD
Darky: Don't make me kill you.
Snowy: =O With what? =P
Darky: My bare hands.

Perhaps not as godly as you think he is... *points to sig*
But that's beside the point. I look forward to this new class system and the impact it will have on the gameplay. It's time for some change.

He is still a god, just a god who has a Windows computer.
In other news, Sorry I haven't been able to come on DS much lately, I have got a lot on my plate right now, with school taking up a lot of my time, especially the endless assessments, and what little of the time I have to spend on the computer goes into a novel I am writing, the Tanny's Getting Married contest, Darky's rpgs, the SKoA faction and my own absolutely brilliant rpg which I am planning.
It is just a few weeks till the end of term though, and I will be able to come on a lot more then.
I have trademarked the symbol: '™'. You fail at display names.
^ Thanks to Nazy for the... thingy ^
Things which you should look at:
SKoA - http://skoa.cspacezone.com/ , if you have any Age of Empires games.
The DS Garden Festival Minigame - Link , whether you play DStorm or not.
The Most Mysterious SSSS - Link For people who don't care about...things.
Like LEGO? Play Blockland!

E.T.A. for the new classes?
It will be a while. Compared to what we have now, it's a lot of content, but it will be worth it in the end.
Other updates to DStorm are going to come before I finish the classes though, so by no means should anyone hold out until the classes are done. I also plan to give GMs more of an outlet to do things, so more should be happening before the classes are finished.
