Ok let me explain the difference between a hero and a villain. Thor faced adversity far more frequently than Thanos since he has his own monthly title for years. We haven't seen the same from Thanos over the long haul. We have seen Thanos doubt himself and face self doubt to come out on top before. I didn't cry foul or throw my hands up in dismay because until you face adversity you don't know what kind of man you are. I always have supreme faith in Thanos despite the differences in opinion of the writers and Thanos.
This is adversity for Thor and he will come out on top again and return to the status quo. I have faith in Thor. I always have as a character. My favorite Thor of all time was Reigning Thor when he lost his worthiness and had Loki believing him which is a stark contrast to typical Thor. Enjoy the differences and realize he will return. Never lose faith. Ever.
Thats a huge dodge to my question. You could put every bit of adversity and self doubt that Thanos has had in his entire career, and it would not be comparable to what happened to Thor in the past 3 years. And Thor has had to usher the death of all the gods when he ended Rangarok. He cut a path for Surtur to get to Sif. he doesn't need lectures on adversity.
Reverse the roles, would you really be so optimistic ?
Hey I'm still around, I just don't bother anymore for the most part lol
Here's the thing though, there's nothing wrong with their old feats. Feats don't have to be new to be valid and newer feats aren't actually MORE valid than older feats. The "current versions of characters" stipulation in the rules has been corrupted to mean as such by many, but that's not actually what that stipulation is talking about. What that stipulation has always meant, is that if "Thor" is listed as the thread participant then right now it means Jane Thor by default. It doesn't mean that in a thread featuring Odinson w/hammer is about "Odinson as he was portrayed for a year and a half before losing the hammer".
A "boost"? Nope, not in the slightest. It certainly gives him a more expansive library of feats, but not a higher quality of them. Do you really think that his Earth weight feat is more impressive than lifting the supposedly infinite weight of that book?
I'm tempted to actually explain in depth on what the problems plaguing KMC are(again lol), but honestly I don't think anyone cares anymore. It has less to do with Superfans directly though than it does a number of double standards that have become the accepted norm on the forum that stifle good debates right from the outset.

I will always believe in Thanos as you should in Thor. He will be fine in the end. Trust me. You're just rattled the status quo changed and rattled by the insecure Superman fans who are exaggerating this.
I might after I put the kids to bed, it's likely to be one of my long winded analysis and I can't devote that kind of attention to a post while they're destoying my house lol
@Darksaint (read your posts through people quotes)...
I understand Superman benching earth weight but I would not put that above Hulk nearly depleting In-betweener of his power via strength. Not even close honestly. Superman ft is highly impressive whereas Hulk ft is insane.
The whole unworthy thing is pretty much him consciously/subconsciously believing that all gods are not worthy of their supposed wardship(mortals?). He's basically limiting himself.
When Superman had a bad yr, they still repped him, even during those hard times. Thor have enough fts to back him against any Herald. You lost site bro.
Come to the Church of Rand. It's a safe haven of ever growing feats and character awesomeness that will never, ever disappoint you.
..just stay away from that series by the Canadian who has him babysitting some school girl kid, arguing with a nanny who calls him pampered, and running around a city getting snot blown on him by weird dragons out of Ghost Busters..
