Then we simply disagree on the definition of "arbitrary." I think that anything based on individual judgement is arbitrary, and most of the site's rules are based on individual judgement rather than being objectively derived. Because they can't be objectively derived, there's no platonic ideal of "fictional character tiering."Andytrenom said:@Agnaa Arbitrary means something that isn't rooted in solid reasoning or fixed standards. Having a rule that other sites don't doesn't make that rule arbitrary, it just means the people in charge of the site have different ideas of what they want it to be than others.
@Yobo I don't believe that Masadaverse was completely unknown outside of vs debating communities when it was first created as a piece of art or added to the site. I don't think it was a VN created by a Japanese fan of vs debating, who shared it with his other Japanese fans of vs debating, until it got to western fans of vs debating who then added it to the site. That seems quite frankly impossible to me. It probably got spread through VN fans in general.
