Don't post them without spoiler tags.

Why is this spite, exactly?

you guys are just describing two extremes.
We sure as shit ain't.
Getting hurt by Superman and the justice league ain't a low showing for anyone. Superboy Prime's fights against the Titans, the society and so on is far from a low extreme...
Here's a guy who legitimately had Thor and Quasar on the ropes several times and he's not even being considered.

When you said metas, I assumed you meant the Titans.

He has the durability to survive guardian kamikaze, monarch Armor ruptures and other such things so when metas and heralds hurt him it always seemed odd. How can superboy hurt superboy prime? Makes little sense. His complaining and fear of super speedsters can be a little misleading also.
Legionnaires have plenty of metas.
You always thought it was PIS? Thought his first showings were PIS did you?
Yeah, he was beating Ion. He was fighting a FRESH Ion in a fight that ended with lead-poisoning. Okay? And that was a fight.
A guardian kamikaze that clearly had a very different effect than intended. Do you think they planned on reforming his body even stronger? Better yet, do you think that's how a guardian/Prime fight would go?

you just brought up all his low showings.
Prime has low showings such as being hurt by superboy because he was suppose to be at first his arc nemesis, but then DC decided they actually would like to make him much more powerful than that.
also its the same reason he got beat by the teen titans the last time but thats about it.
now lets look at majority of his feats? wrecking down the teen titans as they were nothing, cutting superman like butter with heat vision.
completely dominating superman, owning the JSA, pimping half of DC universe.
owning martial manhunter.
b**** slapping black adam.
taking combined groups of high herald caliber and wrecking them.
flying thru anti monitors armor, destroying it, and throwing him into the space.
physically breaking out of the Phantome zone dimension which is an enhanced dimension for prisoners.
breaking time and reality with his punches, altering reality itself physically.
owning the JLA.
owning and killing green lanters.
making a GL ring scared of him.
killing a guardian.
breaking a wall made out of the combined willpower of 32 green lanterns.
i am sure i forgot some more crazy feats from prime, but i think i made myself clear why this guy belongs in the Trans level tier, and why the thing you are doing is simply called lowballing.

Easy. Here's what you all put out:
"Now, a spite thread is usually considered as a thread opened to intentionally be one-sided (because the poster may not like that character, or opened to goad another person into responding, etc.)."
Before you consider the progression of his posts, matching a tank character like Tutinex vs. SPB is at it's core, ridiculous. Now consider the progression. He started off with a Thor vs. Black Adam thread he made on 7/31/13. http://www.killermovies.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=582892&pagenumber=1
The voting was pretty even, causing him to bring up Tutinex's performance against Thor and then the U-Foes in a rage fit. He got extremely heated in that thread as a staunch BA fan because BA didn't get the landslide win he was hoping for. This lead him to create a BA vs. Tutinex thread today. http://www.killermovies.com/forums/f77/t583246.html
Clearly, if he couldn't get the landslide win for BA against Thor as he desired, he would get a win for BA in an indirect method. Unfortunately, things did not work out in his favor with a solid majority voting for Tutinax over BA. So later in the day, he made this thread, a pure spite thread. He transferred his frustration from the eariler BA battles toward Tutinex and created a ridiculously unbalanced match up out of pure butt hurt. NO ONE thinks that Tutinex and SBP are peers. His tantrum is a waste board space, and I would think this is what you all had in mind when you created the Spite rule.
He was shocked and appalled to find that most posters in that thread believed Tutinax would win.

Yeah sodam wasn't that impressive (in terms of being Ion) but even without the poisoning was on the business end of a beating. When it comes to the guardian my point was SBP durability. Anyone else would of just died, but he got shot across the multiverse. Same with the monarch with the amp from the guardian kamikaze.
The amp he got always made me question what kind of absorption his body was truly capable of (not being limited to solar amp) but that's just me drifting a little sorry.
Point is that his levels seem to drop to fit the needs of the story. His higher durability and strength seemingly ignored or watered down for what's needed for the sake of the story. Isn't that PIS? If I'm wrong on my definition then correct me 😄
Despite being a pre-crisis kryptonian I always felt he fell short of living upto that potential (without amp that is) while still being much more than most characters in the then current DC could deal with.
