Neither do I, but the option to turn off spells will be there if you'd prefer a normal forum going experience.

i'm thinking a really small amount like 10 XP or something to make the post spinnable. something basically inconsequential and completely free if you got the kickback XP from having the spell cast on your own post in the first place, but adds a level of interaction in there.

Maybe it should just be spinnable all the time for accessibility's sake

What about a button on the spellbound post that rotates the entire page, making it legible.

Something to this effect

What about passive spells that you can cast on yourself to help protect yourself?

Some ideas:
Immunity for x time
Parry/deflect, spell will be deflected onto the enemy caster's next post
Double the amount of EXP earned when a spell is cast on you for x time

Two_Finger · Jul 24, 2016 at 2:50 AM

I like that deflect one

Spritanium · Jul 24, 2016 at 3:02 AM

Yeah the deflect and similar ideas are cool, they would just require the fundamentals of the spells plugin to be rethought

Once we have user/global spells in addition to post ones, that would probably be a good time to add stuff like that
