Should Memetic Tier be altered?

[Crabwhale]

So, our current definition of Memetic Tier goes like this: "The highest tier possible. Only applied to characters whose supposed omnipotence has given them popular meme status. Examples include Chuck Norris, Segata Sanshiro, Squirrel Girl, and TFS Popo. Just because a character is a meme, does't automatically count them as Memetic Tier. The meme has to be about how powerful they are."

Now, characters that have become Memetic without meeting the requirements of their specific memes being about their power are an accepted and common thing de facto. However, should we update the specifications of the tier to officially declare that: "yes, any character that is a meme can and should be placed at Memetic tier"?

no

any character that is putted at Memetic tier without meeting the criteria are fakes and thus are not truly Memetic.

I dont think so plus there are too many custom tiers made there are even ones such as Beyond Memetic, Super Memetic, and Omni Memetic

1. No not every meme is "Memetic Tier". The meme has to specifically be about how powerful and unbeatable they are, such as Chuck Norris.

2. Of course since this is Joke Battles people can claim tiers they want and make up their own tiers, but as for the "official" Tiering System that's how it works.

Ummmm, maybe, I'm pretty sure this is why Ocean Tier exists, its just that everyone forgot about it

 

[KingPin0422]

Ocean Tier is meant for "the deepest, most boundless of things".

I personally think that it is a weird tier in both name and definition, but meh.

Forgive my wording, as at the time of first writing this thread, I was on a tight schedule.

What I meant to say more-or-less was:since Memetic tier is already used de facto for all memes (or at least most of them, as you and MLPlover already said, outside of custom tiers), should we get rid of the restriction that says they need to memes specifically about their power? Not only is it less confusing, but it also works better with the current state of the wiki, in which any meme is given Memetic regardless.

 

[Ryukama]

No. The entire point of "Memetic" is for characters who are memes based off how powerful they are. It's a reference to the trope "Memetic Badass". Of course people can still make pages as they please but the actual Tiering System page stays the same.

Alright then. I suppose this should be closed then?

 

[Ryukama]

Sure. Thank you very much for being reasonable and understanding. Greatly appreciated.
