I was just curious as to why BSC limits you to twice your height? I understand you don't want people being, like, 5,000ft tall but twice your height?
Szar is only five feet tall, for example. With Body Size Control, he can only grow up to 10 feet. Which works well enough, but I'm just wondering why you set that limit in to begin with? I don't think anyone would abuse the ability, but then again if you made it so it could make you bigger would it end up costing more?
Sorry, I'm raising more questions than I meant to.

I think its supposed to just beef you up, like make you look stronger and more menacing. Some of the characters, like master roshi, could go from scrawny to big and buff, and I think thats what it is.

If you gave specifications of what you wanted, the admins may be able to work with you on it. For instance, I wanted my Body size control to come out as different levels of my SSJ transformation (Base, Ascended, Ultra), and they allowed me to do that, despite the fact that it was slightly out of the normal bounds for the ability itself.

Because we don't want people being 5,000 ft tall.

So, I'm guessing stuff like what Karin said is alright, because it's combined with a Tier, which is assumed to increase the power of your techniques anyway, enabling you to skirt the boundaries of things like Body Size Control just a bit?

Well, I didn't mean in growing hugely tall. I'd *maybe* gain a few height, but it's mostly just my muscles bulking up to a retarded size. I just meant if he specified what he wanted, maybe they'd be willing to talk about it.
For example, it says Saiyans can use it for Oozaru, but a Oozaru isn't 10 feet tall.

How were boundaries skirted?

I think I must've misunderstood Karin's technique, but for example:
Say someone wanted to roleplay their Tier 1 as themselves turning into a giant reptile lizard. Let's say they were normally six foot six, and the giant lizard form was, say, eighteen feet. Almost three times the normal height. Would that be acceptable since tier 1 is assumed to augment abilities and techniques anyway?

No. Oosaru is the only exception.
If that changes, we'll let everyone know.

Sorry, I just meant that you were willing to work with me, so if he wanted something within reason you might consider it.

That was actually directed at Juno.

Ugh... Here is quick tip... Techniques are only your Base...
You can test the waters and see what you get and ASK an admin what needs to be judged or possible.
If it sounds resemble then yea... IF they say no.... Just pm then ask...
I can tell you with almost certainty that with body size and wind I Could Make 'SOinc****' Where The Nova's Hands increase to half his size and send a clap in ones direction lol
EDIT: If you have an idea and dont think it will work.. Hit up an Sm or admin
Reb: ya know
Reb: I think you're a fucking moron OOC
Reb: but I have to hand it to you
Reb: you've become a really great writer

Two more questions:
The first one is, if I RP using Body Size Control to just increase my muscle mass and make me taller, and I allowed to stay in that state? It won't make me any stronger CA wise, just an aesthetic change. I plan on having Szar think that he's transformed when he actually hasn't.
The second one is, with the saga nearing its conclusion, I will be going back to Hell. Am I allowed to do quests while I'm there, to try to make a little extra cash for when I come back to life?

BSC actually does affect stats, to a degree, if you read the description. You can just RP Szar looking different for the purposes of a fake transformation, if you'd prefer.
Yes, you can quest in Hell.
