[Suggestion] Bio Impound Strikes

[Sterling Malory Archer]

Okay, going to keep this short. My suggestion is that Mods can place Impound Strikes on Bios that require a test. The Impound strikes will be issued if the Bio is being misused too often. When Bio Impound Strikes pile up and reach a certain number, the user's bio will be pending while they must re-take the battle test or some kind of "punishment".

This is a just a suggestion.


Maybe like:

1 Impound Strike = Warning
3 Impound Strikes = 1 Week Ban
5 Impound Strikes = Re-take Battle Test

I like the idea, but how are mods going to keep track, there are quite a lot of bio's circulating at the moment that requires a battle test...
But yeah, it is a good idea, since some bio's are used in a way where you start thinking if it's really possible...

Could be a added note on the persons' Bio? They won't be dished out like free samples. So it shouldn't get out of control. I'm just suggesting that Mods should be able to do it.

I like the idea, but wouldnt a mod have to watch every fight with a special bio? I like the idea, just seems like to much hassle.

Most instances when bios are being misused, the fights would've been reported, so by that time the Mod would already be involved.

Mods won't need to watch every fight. It would just be Bio Test bios. and not all bios are being misused. Drizzy uses his Nagato bio really well.

So anyways, they wouldn't need to watch every fight.

Not a bad suggestion, but i see an obvious and looming flaw with this. Written rules can often be exploited simply using the wording of the rule itself. Most RP matches never end with a defined winner because most people can't accept defeat even in hopeless situations, if this rule were to come to pass it would just escalate the problem for deciding the winner.

While its a good idea in theory, in practice it would just become another necessary exploit in the system.

Agreed. It's kind of sad. But I don't think it would be an exploit in the system. Since the Mods are the only ones who can give Impound Strikes.

I just think the suggestion should be just patched up and be in action. So people with Bio Test Bios or planning to get one don't just get one and pass even if they don't understand the bio properly. It's really not hard to go research on a technique and watch how it was used in the anime/manga.

Very true, but this would become problematic for bios considered to be too OP for the RP system. Nagato bios for example are insanely powerful and matches involving them if this suggestion were to pass would be reported more often than not. Most people would consider effective use of bios like these as cheating simply because they're not on par with the person utilizing it.

But you touched on the bio tests system, maybe it could become more harsh on certain characters, so the problem doesn't exist in the first place.

In your example the person is not using the bio wrong so it wouldn't be a problem. If they were using the techniques wrong and showing that they don't understand the bio 100% then that would be a problem.

The Impound System is for people that misuse special bios. Misuse of special bios causes arguments. Arguments cause annoyance. and a whole chain of irritation is in cycle. So to stop the chain, you root it to the problem which was the misuse of the bio (In some cases), then a mod would look over the situation, then depending on the severity of the actions, a step can be made from there.

T_T I smell this idea came from a R€xii but meh the idea is good on paper but this will put more problems on a mods hands,then the so called misuser will try to rebel against it causing more problems.

I doubt it would put too much problems as issues like this don't arise often. But it does happen and it is uncool.

But it should motivate people applying for tests to actually research their bio they applying for and to use the techniques and abilities properly.

I had a feeling I knew where this idea was coming from.

I'm not particularly for the idea itself, because it's just lame tbh. You take an initial test for a bio and pass, you've obviously shown that you understand the abilities and how to use them. You use those abilities in battle, and using them too much means you will receive these "impound strikes". If someone's misusing the abilities, they shouldn't have been able to pass the test given for the use of these abilities.

I think it's really trying to render the test system useless. People make mistakes and some people see an alledged battle differently than to other people, they shouldn't be penalized because of a simple misunderstanding. Maybe we can ban someone from using kunai as well because they're holding it one way when they should have been holding it another way.

@Bold = You wouldn't receive "impound strikes" from that. If they are being used in a wrong manner, then you would.

@Underlined = Sometimes the mod checking the test overlooks something?

@BoldedItalics = That's fine, no punishment for that. But most people don't purposely do the same mistake more then 3 times.

Now, you said everything that I wanted to.... <3

I really don't see any kind of point in this. If someone is intentionally or not abusing a specific skill, he will be warned by default. If he or she completely ignores that warning, that person will be punished either way one way or another as that person is then simply breaking the RP rules. That doesn't only apply to test bio's, but any kind of ability.

I fail to see what use this system could have as it's pretty much stating the obvious, only in a much more annoying way as we need to keep track of such stuff.

 

[Lili-Chwan]

In my opinion, this doesn't necessary need a ban or even a warning. When a member is reported for misusing a bio (Sent through pm with a link to the bio and the thread in question), a RP mod will go there and evaluate the situation. He then can take action such as give the member a warning (through a post and editing the member's bio with a 1 point warning) or even give more than one warning, due to the gravity of the situation. ( 3 warnings and the bio is pending).

There could be something like infractions for people who report the member wrongly just for a personal vendetta or butt-hurt'ice.

Okey, It cool. just a suggestion. Closing the thread now.
