Well, I wouldn't personally count that as power playing. What do you mean, exactly?

Power play is controlling another's character. In this situation, it's the fact that the other member SAID they DID shoot the wolf. That's controlling the other member's character by saying they got shot, maybe they didn't. Or in the other situation, the fact that they DID mate with the other person's wolf without knowledge/permission.

In the same case, god-modding is where they're all knowing, invincible, etc... shown by the fact that they had the ability to randomly shoot laser beams out of their paw for no good reason.

Oh, I know what it means, I just didn't understand what context it was in. The shooting wolf was one... But I doubt the mating incident could have counted as power playing.

It still would have because the member who role played the female didn't give permission.

And her mate was mating with several other wolves too, when I was on holiday, because he thought I had quit. I noted him about my leaving for four days, and made my character go into a coma of sorts so that nothing could happen to her whilst I was gone.
It was in my sig, big red letters too.

Ah, I assumed you didn't give permission due to that post right there. It seemed like you didn't know about it until you came back. O.o

I didn't know. O.e But the other females WERE PLAYED BY DIFFERENT USERS. And those users, obviously, gave permission. But I didn't know about it, and apparently Nasme's mate was by her side all through her coma. As if. >.>

Oooh, but didn't actually mate with your character? Yeah, that's not power playing, but jeez, that's annoying. >.<

No, they didn't mate with MY character... >.> And yes, that is UBER annoying, especially when they lied about it. I asked why they did it, and their excuse was 'i thought u quit.' >.>
Even when I made myself perfectly clear that I was leaving for a few days.

BLARG!!! DX<

I created this awesome unique character, just to match another person's awesome unique character. We agreed to it, and were all set to start on the 1x1 RP... Then, somehow we start talking about religion. Presumably they're a very strong Christian, and decided not to go ahead with it because of my beliefs....>.>
