Immortality Type 4

Awesome, my recommendation went through.

If you need some help, I don't mind helping out in my free time.
 
Yes, if you consider it worth the effort, but if you assemble 5-10 staff members to help you out, that would obviously speed things up a lot.
 
A staff forum thread to organise the project would also be very useful of course.
 
Okay. Thank you very much for the help.
 
Having resurrective/reincarnating/retroactive immortality usually doubles up with parasitic immortality if it happens after death, and doubles up with regenerative immortality if the soul or body is destroyed, and possibly reliant immortality if it's bound by a system or verse mechanic. Someone will have to re-write the page the reflect what I said, which would make it easier to assign for characters. Althogh it really isn't necessary to get rid of Type 4 and can have 11 types.
 
I don't think we should remove it, it means a character can't die as long as the opponent is not stronger than the being who gives him immortality. But I amm late here
 
Even though I can't edit locked pages, I'd still like to chip in and edit a chunk or two.
 
Well, if we do not get enough staff members who are willing to help, it is possible that we will accept some experienced and trusted members such as yourself as well.

I think it was agreed type 4 is bordeline meaningless a while ago
Pretty sure Type 4 Immortality can only be used by deities (unless the deity grants the mortal protection.)
 
We're revising Type 4 Immortality right now, that stuff will be moved to Type 8.
 
^That's not always the case: A god or superior being could have granted immortality to the character, but aside from that is nothing else, you do not need to kill the god to kill the other one unless the god wants to revive it.

Okay, not gonna lie, this sounds like the most arrogant thing I've ever read, like honestly, I think you should ask a few more of the Admins to see if they agree with you instead of saying that they should change a defination to suit yourself.

Like, does anyone else read it as being really arrogant?
 
Well, we have already made another decision regarding what this revision should entail. Crzer07 will have to abide by it.
 
So will there be two variations of the new type 4, one for resurrection and the other for reincarnation?

As resurrection and reincarnation can be very different and dont necessarily require the other.

(Reincarnation could be considered Ressurestion in some cases but not all)

Too late, my point was already taken into consideration ƒÿø ;)

They'll just be falling under the same category.
 
The difference is that reincarnation would be non battle applicable as far as this goes I suppose.

True but another difference is,

Resurrection = I die, I come back

While Reincarnation = I die, someone else comes back
Yes but they're still the same consciousness, right? It's basically parasitic immortality, so it's fine to have under the same as resurrection, since it's the same consciousness, just different body.
 
Thats not always true some reincarnations you are a totally different person(mind included), also im just saying I think reincarnation should be a subcategory type 4 to resurrection.
 
I am not sure. I would appreciate input from the rest of the staff.

Also, this is still a thread in the staff only forum.
 
Never mind. I thought that this was the tier 4 project thread. My mistake.
 
Yeah, sorry about that. There is another type 4 thread that is staff only.
