Spell Organization (CLOSED)

Username: Kaseki
Suggestion Idea Name: Magic consolidation
Suggestion Details: Take magics that have been created and either merge existing magics into one, or take existing magics and turn them into a magic that can be obtained automatically.
Other Information: Everyone bases their magic on something. You have your general elementals and your uniques. So let's take what we have already and make a Topic about them. Make them one large template of a collection.

Confused? Example:

Take every Fire magic on this site and make one Topic about it. Collect spells from them all, break it down to D-S rank and have a huge list on it. With this, new users can see ideas more clearly and can pick and choose things that are existing.

Why?

It makes obtaining a magic much easy on the user, while allowing the staff to approve much easier because it's on a magic that has already been approved.

But doesn't that make this baby our system?

Sure, but isn't at least worth a conversation about it?


EDIT:

It appears so that people wish this not because of an over population of the same spell, as well as people with unique spells. So here's an idea, if we take an already existing collection of spells, like... Flame Magic for example, and find about 30 or so characters with this magic, wouldn't consolidating that collection into one form with... 120 spells, make it easy for approval while still creating an interesting blend of magic? I mean, with 120 spells to choose from, or even just 50, you still have over ... I believe 200 combinations of spells. Keeping in mind that this is all D-Rank for a base. Good idea or no?

EDIT2:

CONCLUSION: By merging approved spells in any manner restricts creativity and dulls the overall outlook on characters as well as the site. Something that would be over simplistic is not something that this site will, or should ever adopt.

Thank you for your input.

This is an... Okay idea. ( Im Kari/Sara btw )

I have one big problem, one that i face personally. All of my magic, is unique and comes from my mind directly and i have worked very very hard on it. I'm not going to put any of my magic into a thread where people can copy from. Especially because i like to be unique. Its almost like copyright or plagiarism.

That's what we have the approved section for. And we're never going to support direct copying. It would make it easier for us and streamline spells, but it would really take the fun out of checking over magic apps for me if everything starts to not only look the same but is actually the exact same.

Directly copying spells. That's silly. The mods already throw a fit if they expect plagiarism, so I doubt this will happen.

Edit

Completely unnecessary since the accumulation of spells is in the Magic Section. If you want inspiration just go there. And copying stuff word for word is not allowed or wanted. This is a creative, free-forming rping site. Not a game where you just copy your equipment o-o

uh your edit seems like a not good idea. Restricting everyone to set pool of spells to choose from very much cramps the atmosphere and deters creativity.

While it won't take ungodly amounts of work it would still take way more work then it is worth.
