Well, Major did kind of just give us the reigns.
As for Ibuki and Remi, I would think they would be okay with it.
We would be able to set some ground rules that were not brought up in the first set of rules (OC regulation, etc.). Personally, I believe that OCs should come and go frequently in order to further the plot and give it more depth, but some people want to use OCs as Characters, which can be a grey area. In HM's case, he was a "boss", but was killed by John. The reason he's still around is because he was resurrected by DiZ. He's an OC, but he is important to the plot for all the other Characters. He's an ascended OC.
There's various other things we might need to set as well, such as getting people to put location tags, time tags, and more detailed posts.
Ther only reason I think Ibuki and Remi would disapprove would be for space's sake, but then again, Cucoo has an RP that has three seasons planned. He already posted them in the RP section for later.

Good point as well...
One rule could also be a limit as to how many GAME characters a person can have. Like 3-4 or so, and occasionally (like with the case of using OC's for a little bit just to further the plot at one point or another) could also add a character for a short time just to help the plot move along. That way things won't get out of hand with too many characters all over the place.

That's pretty much what we've been doing.:p
It's not written down in the rules, but it's sort of an unwritten rule.
I personally don't like to touch upon the whole OC issue. There's too many circumstances to consider. It's cool to have an OC every once in a while, maybe even as a "playable character", but they should not dominate over your video game Characters. At most, they should be about equal in terms of use.
To me, it's okay to try something new and break away from the old formula, but the one thing I do not mess with is the central idea, the main idea of the entire RP. It's those parameters that should always be followed.
I would say that this first season was more of an experiment, one where we tested out what worked and threw away what didn't. With the second season, we can put what works into writing and really get things moving without confusion, or grey areas.

Hello everyone
I'm busy being sick at the moment. As for the amount of characters, what about us that already kind of have a big number of characters. For me I think it would be very hard to organize the Organization if I didn't have control over them all.
As for OC, i think it's alright if they work in the area they are in. For the Organization we currently only know about half of the members. People like Another is a OC, but he is also hinted at exsisting in the KH universe. Xehanort is a anagram of No Heart of Another with a X added. We have already seen No heart in BBS so it's not impossible for Another to actually exist.

@Katrix
Well in the sequel we could still keep control of characters we used in this RP. That was just a rough idea of a rule.
@S121
I don't even plan on using an OC of sorts for this RP, because I got used to using game characters. I just don't want the sequel to be out of hand at times like this RP. I guess that's what the whole refurbishing of old rules, and adding new rules will definitely be helping with.

@Katrix
Welcome back!:p
Yea, there's that too. There will always be exceptions to the rule, such as that. I suppose you could say that the entire Organization would be considered an entity in itself, while the members are it's various parts. In the end, the main guy is Xehanort and Another. (I think Another is in the RP.) Now that I think about it, it could be hard to set rules on. It would have to be an exception.
I think the main reason we have extra Characters is because then we won't have to wait on one person. If a person is busy, then we can easily switch to the other storyline.
@SUSTIC
I have an OC too, but I rarely use him.
There's also the army of OCs in Prometheus Labs. That place is an OC factory.:p
