A long time ago we had a thread where we discussed the topic of Time Travel and how VS threads involving it tend to turn out. The discussion focused mainly on people using the arguments "X will paradox Y" and how these arguments often don't take into consideration factors like X not knowing where he has to go paradox Y, if Y has protection or not, if it's in character for X to paradox.
Originally, the suggestion was to make a rule regarding this but I don't think that would be appropriate. Because the problems to me just seem like Users not making strong arguments in a debate rather than our current rules encouraging people to act in a certain way. In which case a better solution would be to simply add these limitations to the Time Travel so that these bad arguments are easier to spot for everyone.
With that needlessly long introduction out of the way, I request the following limitations to be added
-The time traveler may not have information about his opponent to find him the past and defeat him in a more vulnerable state
-The time traveler may have to fight people protecting his opponent in the past if he tries to hunt him down
If the problems no longer exist, then I'm sorry for bringing it up unnecessarily.
