I think Varov has the right of it. A key difference (albeit a subtle one, perhaps) is perhaps the difference between that which is emoted and that which is stated. For example, if AbsurdlyPowerfulMan had emoted ::recoils in disgust at the noxious odour from UnfortunateGuy's feet:: that would probably fall on the wrong side of things as the action states an absolute certainty. A more appropriate emote would be ::recoils in disgust:: without stating the reason and then continuing to state that the reason was the noxious odour from UnfortunateGuy's feet, thus giving poor ol' UG the chance to call out APM for being the lying liar that he is.

To call a character lying Godmoding is going too far, I feel...which is the impression I get from the previous statement. It also starts down the slippery slope which I'm sure many of us have seen before that results in more "sensitive" individuals crying "Godmode!" whenever anything they don't like happens regardless of whether it truly fits the definition or not.

Also, I request that when this gets officially written up we utilize AbsurdlyPowerfulMan and UnfortunateGuy for examples as they amuse me greatly.
