It's actually the SvFL rule that stops outlandish feats.
I don't really see how those type of rules will actually prevent fanboy style arguments. If someone already thinks that something has happened in a comic, therefore the character can do it, then they won't accept that the feat is outlandish in any event.
All that happens is instead of logically debating the stupidity of such events, we (or some of us) end up saying 'The rules'-then they read them (5 pages of replies), then we have to discuss why they aren't logical character feats- thus returning to the default position of just using common sense.
Just adds a layer of aggravation. Go check the Wolverine vs Abomination thread for ultimate proof.

Repeating an opinion several times doesn't transmute it into fact.
Wanna tell me where the "fantasy" is then? If of course you're just adhering to whatever can be read in a comic. Kinda removes from it being fantasy. It's more like a parallel comic simulator.
It's like flight simulators. If I want that level of realism, I'll become a pilot. I don't play video games to get further into reality, I play them for escapism. If I wanna see who will morally cave in or who will grant mercy, as I said, I'll read a comic. Surely you all come here to enjoy freedom from the freedom, as it were.
How is this a fantasy forum if you're continually choking the bouts with ridiculous rules and adhering to comics which use rules that are irrelevant to this forum?

Yep.
Originally posted by Alpha CentauriYea, I agree this is for an escape, but a common ground must be made on these things.

Someone can come in and say the exact opposite, and have 100% loyalty to the rules of this forum.
