Dante vs. Dark Link

I am pretty sure though, that the moderators are not opposed us discussing wether or not a character is breaking the rules. According to the set rule about this forum, and looking at disallowed characters, Dante should not be allowed. Just saying that it should be against the rules. If it is not, then the moderators need to be WAY more clear on that rule and elaborate it a lot more. As it is written right now, though, this character is not allowed.

And yet Peach closed that "Lucifer vs." match so how does this back up on what you're saying?

Look, if you want rant like a silly nut at those who say the moderators allow the character, go argue with them and not us and quit filling this thread with your complaining. My eyes hurt enough as it is reading through what you're saying.

You're missing the point here. Dracula and Alucard were the same as before they came into the games. Before Castlevania existed, Dracuala was thought to be the king of vampires and Alucard is the slayer of vampires, and in Castlevania, guess what? Dracula is the king of vampires and Alucard is hunting vampires. The only similarity between game Dante and poem Dante is their friggin names. Game Dante is a crusader who's fighting Hell's demons with a scythe and poem Dante is some preacher or whatever he is and he doesn't fight. Game Dante wears armor and has a cross in his chest while poem Dante wears a robe and has nothing sewn into his body.

Unlike Diablo and the gods, Dante is a completely different character. Dante doesn't even fight in the poem.

So Poem Dante, according to you, is all variations of Dante? In that case, let's ban DMC Dante from the Versus forum. And let's ban Vergil and Cerberus too since they have relations to Dante's Inferno.

The story altering makes no difference, since the rule is not about the story. The rule is about the character, so what the character does is irrelevant. Where it originate is relevant, which is in the Dante's Inferno poem.

This is not about story altering. VG Dante is a completely different character from Poem Dante. The only similarities they have are their nationality, their love being Beatrice, and them going to Hell. Poem Dante does nothing but act like a scared *****.

Well too bad, Dante is allowed and you're not a mod. With your logic, Starkiller shouldn't even be allowed since he's involved with things that originated from the movies.

The only Alucard whose threads have been closed is the one from Hellsing.
