in my honest opinion, if someone is unsure if something is legal or not, they should just ask.
if someone is unsure of someone else’s legality, they should just ask staff.
it saves a lot more time and resources in being a responsible person, rather than instating a forced “staff approved” system.
in my eyes, the proposed system isn’t the exact same thing that’s currently on the site. right now, nobody is forced to write tags for their characters. the tags from premade shops are a luxury available for our use if we want to, and i’d feel much more comfortable if this was kept at a “if we want to” level.
i understand where this concern is arising from. you don’t want stuff to get out of hand power-wise, and you want everybody to understand everyone else for plot convenience.
but honestly, it’s just unnecessary. i’ve never experience trouble plot-wise when roleplaying with a character that didn’t have a bio. and i have never thought little of someone for not having a bio.
when i’m in doubt about my characters (such as the use of a power), i just ask instead of implementing whatever i’ve thought up into my character.
maybe just remind people. remind them that, when in doubt, ask. easy.
