I am not free, I am going to add rules for this vague term.

I mentioned KE calcs are terrible justification for tiering a while back. Mainly due to the fact that one can easily justify “reasonable” timeframes and obtain desired speeds. I even brought up an example, Luffy’s Bajrang Gun calc. How easily the calc could reach Tier 5 results. Lo and behold…..

@KingTempest Now me personally, I wouldn't let this slide, but that's just me...

Kinetic energy itself is already downplay because the original formula is just W = F*d which can be simplified to W = m*v^2 without the half.

Personally I don't think "the results are too high for my liking" is a good reason to be against KE calcs but that's how it is for some I suppose

That isn’t my reason for finding KE calcs as terrible justification and I’m not completely against KE calcs. I just think KE calcs should be used as supporting justification for a tier and not the sole reason. It’s especially terrible when scaling chains are brought in. Everyone goes up several sub tiers because they scale to a single feat millions of times above anything they’ve shown or have been stated capable of. Just to be clear, I’m not referring to One Piece alone. It happens far too often int he wiki.

Okay well funnily enough I think this leads into my own pet peeve here:
I think we use the term "outlier" way too liberally

Ironically I should be happy because One Piece is one of my all time favorite verses. Maybe I should start abusing the KE method.

I haven't kept up with verses and I noticed Dante suddenly been downgraded to 2-C... and Kratos is Low 1-C what the ****
- 7,905

It turns out that the 1-C evidence for DMC were fake

Both should be 2-C tbh.

Wait what? Since when was this carbuncle discussed?

I got a bit sillay
Low 1-C getting removed had nothing to do with that thread actually, I just downgraded it for separate reasons. Speaking of, apparently I am now receiving death threats from DMC supporters off-site, which I find really funny.

Well, I don't play the mobile game myself and the Chinese description doesn't seem to have been written by some foreigner powerscaler. I'd say they just poorly translated all that. It's a shame that no one called me up on that discussion.
Edit: On second thought, the certain part of the syntax sounds unorthodoxical and not something you'd see in formal language.
That's power scaling for you.

Don't get me wrong I get being salty or defensive about a verse that you're passionate about getting downgraded, mocked, criticized, etc while being made to feel "targeted" just for being a fan (I know the feeling all too well) while other verses seemly get more leeway due to bias.
That said it's still a hobby based on fiction, I'll never get people who get so mad about how a fictional character is rated here that they're willing to bully other users, resort to all manner of fallacies and even potentially commit a crime over it (E.g: Doxxing).
Nothing wrong with power scaling but I've noticed this pass year, it can bring out the worst traits in people.

I’ve seen enough to quit powerscaling. The most goddamn screwed up thing I’ve seen is so gruesome that I don’t think I can even share it here.
