Such drastic actions like character deaths and ragequits are not neccessary.
But EVERYBODY needs to nerf their characters to comply with the following:
- We are NOT gods. We do not know everything, we cannot DO everything.
- Technology has its limits, very clearly and well marked. Yes it can bring you back from near death with a suitable apparatus, but you're not going to get handwave level undoing an apocalypse unless everyone has agreed upon the existance of an installation capable of doing so.
- The same with magic as with technology. Even time travel is pushing it, making and destroying worlds is beyond. Even I was pushing more than I like earlier having Danu successfully defend her home. And again it has a price to use it.
- No more of this doomsday device/spell/natural disaster. It only annoys people, and since it gets instantly retconned anyway all you are accomplishing is making people mad at you.
Yeah, I have to admit I'm guilty of at least two things on this list... I don't really like using that whole "altering reality" thing if I can help it, and there is a toll being taken with what I've been doing... It's just that nobody knows it yet.
(that, and I don't quite know exactly where to put it/how to explain it)
