So the highest justifiable level of Nigh Omnipotence then, rather than full-blown Omnipotence ? Since the concept is mostly defined by its boundlessness and "ain't gotta explain" logic dodge.

In the eyes of a Transfictional Author, yes, they are limited to Nigh Omnipotence within fiction.
From the point of view of a fictional character, it is full-blown Omnipotence since those fictional characters are unaware that they are limited by the logic limiting the Transfictional Author's mind, hence my use of the word "ultimately".

If their power can still grow, it mean it isn't maxed-out yet, which in turn confirm they weren't quite omnipotent yet (couldn't do thing they now can). A credible illusion of Omnipotence would be to be permanently unable to find anything you can't do.

"And yes, I just talked about the limits of Omnipotence because I define Omnipotence not as being all power, but as being maximally powerful, by which I mean being able to accomplish anything that is logically possible."

As I thought, the inherent meaning of omnipotence has officially been lost in this debate.

It is a personal definition, as clearly mentioned.

Something as cut and dry as the context behind that word isn't subject to interpretation. If you are unreasonably altering standard definition, then there is absolutely no need to debate as the centerpoint of the discussion has been rendered moot and there is no chance for resolution (unless you agree to disagree) because there lies a discrepancy of basic interpretation arising from contrasting definitions.

Anything can be interpreted, even the things you don't want people to. No definition is ever set in stone, every single one of them has kept evolving again and again over the course of human history.

Wai-What? Okay, I might need read through the chat to get some context. Hold on.

Definitions evolve over time; however, the heart of the context will almost always remain in the descriptivist's linguistic alterations. When you remove that, it is an entirely different word that didn't gradually evolve, but was forcefully changed in order to create a flagrant misrepresentation to oppose. There is a solid difference between interpretations evolving to accomodate cultural and political change and dismissing the basic principle of the definition.

oh sure, remove my reply

look, i know i'm not a mod so this really isn't any of my business but it makes no sense to keep this thread, or any thread on here going if the original topic of it derailed

like, you could make a new thread and argue about whether or not the definition of omnipotence is something subjective or objective there, i really don't care.

granted, the original topic of this specific thread is absolutely stupid

But of course that's none of my business. Carry on. 

*sips tea*

DYBAD Edit : Your post was deleted for trolling.

Slapson Edit: With all due respect, I was not trolling. Trolling would imply that I was purposely trying to be shocking to trigger someone. This was not my intention. In fact, the post you deleted was me only pointing out why this thread should be closed.

If you mean the part where I was pointing out that Matthew is a "shitty OC", then you should understand that this character is not exactly the pinnacle of even the most basic of good writing and character development, and that his creator is trying way too fucking hard to explain why Matthew isn't OP when he has the fucking quintessential OP power, even if he isn't aware of it. The Crying Child, in my honest personal opinion, is one of the worst OCs that have ever been posted on this site.

I'm not saying you have to be a god at writing. I make shitty characters all the time.

I'm saying that you shouldn't have to have giant walls of text to get your point accross that your character is "Muh pure omnipotent eldritch abomination who is also trans and did i mention that she's trans and nobody knows her gender even though i keep saying it ^^" and then make two seperate threads in a sad attempt to prove that your omnipotent character isn't OP at all.

That, and the fact (and this might just be due to the fact that omnipotence is a mess of paradoxes and contradictions) the entire concept of Matthew contradicts itself. A lot. You can see it for yourself on his character sheet.

But, once again, I'm not the author, I did not make this character, so this is none of my business and I'm just a jackass troll petty nuisance memelord who doesn't know any better. Carry on.
