It is a 'change of the times' sort of thing. Autoing was an 'automatic hit' vs god-moding which was as Freelance said; "Undefeatable super character".
So it's really just a matter of where you came from, what your background is, and how long you've rped. I've used autoing for many, many years. I still consider 'god moding' as something as having a hyper-fantastical character.
This doesn't make these terms wrong. It just means well... You're old. Haha. So like Freelance I fall into the "I am old" camp. And just to edit on; these terms are super subjective. What may be 'godmoding' to one person is something else to another. Again, this isn't to say that one is right or the other is not. Just where you come from.
That term must have gone out of style by the time I was in Ayenee (I didn't have internet or a computer in the mid-90s). Â I just remember godmodding from when I got there. Â TBH, I didn't find good RP until I moved on to text-based WoD settings and then later when I discovered NWN.
