I feel as though you can hardly control power-gaming if there is no standardized RP. If you leave it up the players of course each one of them is going to be a king with twelves-and-a-half dragons, a legion of elite guards standing nearby at all times, and a Bentley he teleported from the future with his magic powers.
The best way to stop power-gaming of that sort is to simply ignore 'I summoned seven dragons to anally probe you to death, while the other five and a half dragons of mine watch 'The Simpsons' on a television I teleported from the future' and just go on like it didn't happen to your character. The only RP which can truly effect your character would be mutually agreed upon meetings, or any unplanned in-game actions.
Loopholes, however, cannot and should not be stopped. Unless you take the time to make a solid (and by solid I don't mean: Rule #69: No loopholes HURR HURR) set of rules of which they can't do any more than what is permitted, the bending and or maneuvering of character choices and/or manipulation is open to the imagination of whomever choses to do so.
I understand there is abuse from loopholes, but if it doesn't effect anybody other than that player, why shouldn't it be left alone? Especially if other players support the change from this loophole, and it can be advocated with enough reason it should pass.

The whitelisting process eliminates most of those players. And of all the stories I've seen so far none have been like that. Most people know how to write a good, simple story that makes them even with everyone. I havent seen any that say 'I have everything and I shoot you all with my magic insta kill bow'. Not to mention you can't even do this in game... /me killed everyone simply wouldn't work for real. Nobody takes that seriously.

.. /me would count for nothing, seeing as how actual 'power' is shown through the rapid clicking of your mouse.
EDIT - I just started that sentence with only /me and is said 'Android would count for nothing'.. The forums trolled me D;

I think of powergaming as being linked to immaturity, and for the most part, people seem to be fairly mature. But, guidlines do need to be set

Please explain wich part/parts of the thread makes you confused. We want to make everything as clear as possible but it's quite hard when all we get is:
"I'm confused" :herpderp:
Also, I feel like the talk of powergaming and such isn't really on topic. As of now, it really just clogs up the thread.
We will release a guide on it. But if you feel the need to discuss it you are free to make a new thread.
RE: Info - Revamped Applications - Spammuff - 01-05-2012
Because you all explain things in *pardon my french* FUCKING conundrums.
oh rpherewhereeveryfrickenwhere
What are we actually doing, what do we need to do and what are the bloody rules...
Thats all I want to know, don't give me a wall of text...
Something simple.
