Can you please explain the 3 time rule for me... any mod.

That's what I thought but is this seperated from different abilities like super speed or is it based upon output of power and versatility?

The best answer that I can offer is related with CIS and powersets. Is it possible for Thor to hold back and move slower than Wolverine on Average? Considering we know Thor hold backs a lot, it's feasible; can he really get nanosecond reactions? He might, given that he's quite powerful. In Thor's case, if he had nanosecond feats, it wouldn't be such a stretch for him to showcase high superspeed and yet not act in those levels through most of his career.
Another example: Take Super Skrull, he has done his "bubble into the brain/body" about two times, yet, given his powerset and his personality, it's entirely feasible for he to do so; it's a viable tactics in the forums too.
New powers unrelated with a characters powerset tends to fall outside those considerations and should be considered unusable more often than not. Most of these things are meant to be consensus, keep that in mind too, we're not setting how a character works in stone; instead we're discussing how we used them in this forum.

Are you SURE this is your final answer? If so, this will help on a debate that we had a couple of months back.

But its a bull rush feat that no one on the opposing team would be able to react to. By the way, the rules has changed. A feat has to happen at least 3 times for it to be used in a forum debate. A character doing something once isn't a usuable feat unless you think Wolverine can move 1200 mps since he did keep pace with a running speed demon.
the rules say nothing of the sort, unless digi was at the crack again.

It was a while back... you and darth was debating and you ask darth how many times Surfer has done this (forgot what it was) and Darth said "once". You then tell Darth something along the lines of a "one time showing"... him not using this ability again which could be a offset on his powers.
Then you said that you and Bada was talking about changing the rules a bit... something has to happen at least 3 times for it to be a common power of the character.
Do you remember this?

So that's exactly what I thought you meant.
Generally yes, a feat has to happen more than once for it to be accepted, IF it's outside of the character's established power level.
If it's within their ability already, it doesn't really matter.

So I was right this entire time.
This is what I was aying. I know you all hate when I am right but this is something that no one can prevent.
