In Shinobu Oshino's case it's because anyone who looks at her is overwhelmed by how beautiful she is, and comes to the decision to kill themselves.GyroNutz said:I don't see how passively making people kill themselves could be considered social influencing at all, and idk the context for Reinhard's feat.
"eventually" is all i needed. Literally every instance of social influencing is question is not only instant but makes people kill themselves or fundamentally reworks their brain like with Heavy Weather. It doesn't have to align, especially because no one in real life has ever had that level of charisma and influence over stable people who knew what was going on.Firephoenixearl said:@H13
Just cus humans are incapable of instantly doing it, doesn't mean fiction is too. Humans can produce the same effect eventually. Fiction is well..fiction. As long as they are doing the same thing, even if the resutls don't align perfectly it still counts. There are many things humans can't do that fiction can, this is just one of them.
I mean it in the sense thatYobo Blue said:How does it not work on so many levels? Proof of that? Thats also a non sequitur since its a very causality manip is a very different power under a different branch of science even assuming real world stuff matters
That means literally nothing tho?Hl3 or bust said:I mean it in the sense thatYobo Blue said:How does it not work on so many levels? Proof of that?

X uses causality manip and it links to the page A
Y uses causality manip and it links to the page B
I mean in that it has no validity to the current argument due to not being closely related in any manner you have explained.Hl3 or bust said:that's what i was talking about, so it does mean something. Not entirely sure why this specifically needed attention tho
That is not the issue of this. Social Influencing has other characteristics, it being thrown around doesn't make it ok to use mind manip resistance.Hl3 or bust said:I don't think that mind manip resistance should work, but the issue is that most of the instances of Social Influencing that we have are just mind manip.
Just to respond to this, "A human cannot do it" is a valid counterargument to the argument of "People with mind manip resistance shouldn't resist this since humans can do it."Firephoenixearl said:About the "eventually". As i said dude. "A human cannot do it" is not an argument in "fiction". A human cannot do literally 99% of what fiction does, doesn't invalidate them. A human not being able to instanly convince someone doesn't mean some outerversal god can't do it either.
You took that out of context. The "human" is used as a form of comparison of "why it is different". Not to place literal actual limitations on it because "humans cannot do it". Humanity is just an easy to grasp example of why SI =/= Mind hax.Agnaa said:Just to respond to this, "A human cannot do it" is a valid counterargument to the argument of "People with mind manip resistance shouldn't resist this since humans can do it."
"Supernatural means" sounds a little vague here. Is something like Weather Report considered supernatural since it's done through a stand?TriforcePower1 said:I mostly agree with what people said here. Resistance to mindhax doesn't grant resistance to Social Influencing, being strong willed enough is sufficient to resist the Social Influencing (it obviously depends on the feats Social Influencing has. If it convinced someone who's very strong willed, then in VS threads you need to have a stronger will than the guy who was affected), and it mustn't be supernatural in nature. Only other rule is that if it's not explicitly stated that the person with Social Influencing does it via non-supernatural means, it should be treated as mindhax instead.
The Causality said:Social Influencing is something irrelevant in a death-battle, people don't care about kindness, popularity charism ect..
If the application of SI make people around him abnormaly influenced by him, then it's Empathic Manipulation which is covered by Mind Resistance.
It's quite a few characters probably. I mentioned Shinobu Oshino's first key being able to do it through beauty, and Reinhard Heydrich being able to do something similar.Schnee One said:Is that white queen for your second example?
