SCP Discussion Thread

 
Chat we are so dead 😔
 
I am pretty sure that the debate will not end well for both sides.
 
I'm trying to give you folks some hope, some of the biggest supporters haven't really made any counter arguments right now, like Sir Ovens and Saikou. Yes it looks bleak, but it can change.
I don’t think Saikou is cooking
 
One thing I am curious about is that don’t most of this “powerscaler” articles have only like 10-20 something upvotes? Can’t we just raise are standards so that any article that can profiled has an actual narrative and story? And isn’t just bottom of the barrel stuff?
 
What’s the point of deleting the verse tho
If they are too overpowered because they have knowledge of the wiki does that affect anyone
It supposely breaks the rules and standards of the wiki. Since anyone can come and write something half decent with the intention of tiershit in it apparently.
 
And why is that a problem
Because with that in mind anyone who wants to make a powerful character just so it can be included among the "most powerful" on this website can do it, and this type of thing is called "Battlewank Verse", whereas the verse is created only with the intention to be as much powerful as it can be to be put against other verses and win. SCP wasn't created with this objective but eventually became this unfortunely.

Still, this would be extremely difficult and would require much more attention from the supporters or even a whole new team of people just to filter the things, and even them someone can create a story focused on narrative but also put the things necessary to upgrade the verse in a hideous way. And even if they accepted the proposal to remove all 1-A tier and above SCPs they could even after that focus on upgrading the verse based on hax so their characters will still be unbeatable.

It would literally be the exact opposite of difficult. We would barley have to do anything sense there would be fair less people trying to “game” the system and anyone the some how got up to 100 upvotes with powerscaling slop would be extremely easy to point out and ban
