This is not about "creativity". If you want creativity, go to a roleplaying forum where you can express your desires to make things creative. This is a Wikia. The goal of a Wikia is to inform, not make things creative and flourish everything off with a sprig of mint. You can create your own website in which you can have all the pasta and tiramisu and other desserts that you want.

This is not about going mainstream. This is about credibility. This is also a suggestion. Your completely offensive gesture shows that you hang onto something so dearly that you do not want to change. The fact is that things do change and things must change -- that is a fact of life.

Why don't I/others call psychokinesis "chalkkinesis" or "spoonkinesis" or "papermachekinesis"? Because the fact is all of these things are psychokinesis, you are just giving them a name which they don't need. Like I stated before, instead it can be said: "I moved the paper with psychokinesis by moving the air around it." By saying you used aerokinesis it limits a lot of people as they think each "kinesis" is its own ability. This is a bad misconception and a bad way for people to learn.

Orginality and creativity do not matter when it comes to objectivity. In order to be credible you cannot throw kinesis on the end of a word and say that it is a new ability, which is what has been done. "Hemokinesis" is not an ability, and neither is "radiokinesis". These can be manifestations of psychokinesis, but they do not deserve their own words. Furthermore, they both can be very dangerous and there is no way of knowing without sophisticated means of testing if they are real. The majority of these terms seems to be a group of people coming together and thinking up any terms which they could add "kinesis" on to the end of them.

Fluff can mean different things for different people, but this is arguing semantics and off topic. For me, it means information made up or otherwise fake or not true.

"Talk about psi no matter how wild or out of place the ability or topic. Why the hell are we here kicking and banning and segregating and instigating who's a liar or not? If were here about the same damn thing then who cares, why is it that big a deal? How on Earth can you tell who is one and who is not? Stop trying to logicize everything and just enjoy dammit. What you make out of the information you recieve here, and anywhere on the internet is your's to decipher. But this is Psi Wikia dammit. Not CSI: Psi City, and i'm getting sick of it."

There comes a point to which you will understand that some things are way too exaggerated. Spinning a psiwheel, moving some water, I can believe. Flaring a psiball? I can believe that. Increasing radioactivity in an area? Making a room darker? No, I cannot believe that. Do not play the "I can do it, you can't tell me I can't" card, because that won't work. Some things are believeable, and some things are not. It's not logic, it's rational. You are taking offense to this and you shouldn't. This is not a game where you can let people use their imaginations to think they can do anything. You have to shut them down early and show them the truth. If you don't it leads to an entire site devoted to fluffkinesis where they say they can levitate buildings.
