Premade Spells

This will be coming from me as both a member and a staff member simultaneously, but not an official staff answer to this for now so other members can give a response.

So I also play D&D and am familiar with the fact that they have premade spells, I also play a game called Interstitial and they have premade abilities too. To me, it feels limiting sometimes if you don't have a GM/DM who allows homebrewed spells or let you get super creative with a spell. Yes, sometimes it is easier to have premade spells, but at the same time I feel it could make some newer people think they can't create whatever spells they wanted afterwards and might make them feel stifled.

Even though we tell people they can forgo using stats and go statless, they still feel daunted by the 'rules' so I really personally don't see any difference happening with putting more work on staff by having them make, or even grade in the case of a contest, potential premade spells for people as there are a lot of magic types (14 total), and if the premade spells were to be made for pvp purposes, there are a few spell categories (4) and spell types (4 (5 for extra spells bought or C rank and up if we're to include slightly higher ones too)) as well. It would be quite expansive as it is many different spells total, and magic types like Summoning, Take Over, and Requip have additional abilities to them to top it off (1 - 2 abilities per). And if we want to give people options of premade, there would need to be a few spells of each category and type as well as for advanced spells as well. Total for a single round of spells, that would end up about 11 magics total (D rank to H rank) with the abilities and advanced spells.

Additionally, if we were to do a contest, that doesn't mean people are going to necessarily spread about the spell type list, which would result in staff more than likely having to make these spells as well regardless.

I also think it would be a nice feature too, and I see what you mean about editing premade spells, but I think it's just way too many spells to even 'premake' as one single spell of each category and type for each magic type would be 300 normal spells alone, if we were to add in advanced and make multiple premades, that would quite easily get way too big. In the long run, it honestly might be good, but we only have so many people on our staff to approve and/or make spells on top of our other duties as staff members of the site and as members as well. I'm just not sure it would be too feasible.

As it was stated that there would be way too many spells to do and/or grade at current for this idea, this is being rejected, locked, and moved.
