Talk:God Modding

In my opinion, that's not really an example of God modding, it's an example of how far dueling has come in the last 7 years on Hollow. No where in the post does he specifically say that his attack hits, nor does he describe the effects or damage of his attack upon the opponent. What GawdofChaos wrote is just an example of (by today's standards) a poorly crafted, repetitive post, lacking any real originality or writing skill.

an example of God Modding would be:

Tiphareth makes no attempt at evasion as he is struck headlong by the opponent's blade, the enchanted edge meeting ebon flesh with mystic fury. The mage looks down upon the area of contact, a thin smile spreading across his lips while the sword is merely deflected from its point of impact by the wizards ensorcelled skin. "Your meager blade is no match for me, weakling." Holding out his hand, the magus chants a low utterance, the air growing still as energy builds within the powerful mage. A sudden burst is unleashed upon his unwitting foe, the scintillating beam racing outward to crash vehemently into his adversaries chest, surging through his enemies body with an ever-growing power of unimaginable magnitude. The mage's adversary falls to the ground in a debilitated state, clothing torn asunder by the arcane blast and his precious crimson vitae pouring freely from any number of lacerated wounds. Tiphareth stands confidently over his enemy's broken body, a deep laugh emerging with an air of superiority at the man's bloodied form beneath him. Tiphareth 01:06, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

I concur with what Tiph said. The post GoC made was simply showing a lacking writing skill, not really God-Modding. Putting the post of his up would be a more accurate depiction.
