The RPC has a big problem with this and its general "meta". Be mundane, OR ELSE you get this thread in so many words.
As the liable target you're shotgunning, it's not that.
I just don't think that people should rollover on concepts and go "Well this is totally normal!" when you're talking about dimensional-hopping off-worlders. Lord knows I play a no-special-powers guy and I'm not trying to enforce some sort of meta limit, but playing someone from XI is tantamount to playing someone from any other dimension of fiction because they are all as equally-represented in XIV, which is to say they are not at all represented in XIV..
Well, its not purely you I just laughed at your saiyan shit. The RPC in general is super "anti-special" and I really do understand it, even I have my limits. Im not even a god-mode powergaming whatever, but damn man if you are a nail that sticks up the RPC as a whole loves to come down on it and jerk you to their average power level, which is a level that falls between functionally retarded to IQ of 110 at the most - on average.
That sounds vitriolic from my side, and it is, but its also shaded with truth.
