Tyriont Wrote: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.Yeah, lying shouldn't be godmoding, but I think the character must have to have the intent to lie. For example, for the example given, if APM insults UG's feet stink, and APM expected them to stink when they don't, APM shouldn't explain it as a lie. In a way that is, first and foremost, a minor retcon that could've been avoided, and secondly, it makes APM's character perceived in a negative way they might not have intended for (a liar). An example of an 'appropriate' way to lie would be to have APM--in an effort to specifically slander UG-- spread negative rumors about UG's hygiene and claim his feet stink in public.
Also, I request that when this gets officially written up we utilize AbsurdlyPowerfulMan and UnfortunateGuy for examples as they amuse me greatly.
