TSO ability

Although I congratulate your job overhauling this page, I don't think TSO's bless weapon ability should qualify as a gift, as it grants no item and follows no kind of timeout system. Otherwise great job ! -- Fingolfin (talk) 02:18, 9 September 2015 (CEST)

Thank you sir! I figured we could use an actual article on gifts. As far as TSO goes, I tend to agree, but that's not my addition. You're seeing the page after a couple of intervening edits, and another editor added TSO, but you are likewise just as free to add/remove as you see fit. The idea of what is or is not a "gift" is clearly open to interpretation but I'm sure if it becomes an issue we can hash it out here. But again, thanks! :) --Buddy23Lee (talk) 07:25, 9 September 2015 (CEST)
I consider TSO's bless weapon as a powerful, one-time gift, which is why I included it here, just as I included Kikubaaqudgha's Necronomicon/weapon of pain choice (come to think of it, Lugonu's corrupt weapon ability would fall under the same heading, too). I guess the question is whether or not those count as gifts. Anybody else have any thoughts on the matter? --spudwalt (talk) 00:18, 10 September 2015 (CEST)
To clarify from the above, I have somewhere around negative zero concern as to whether or not we keep TSO listed, I just didn't think that it fit with the theme of bestowing 'something from nothing' (i.e. a new item) that I was originally kinda sorta going for. Personally, I think that in the absence of an agreed upon operational definition of "gift", what's going to be added or removed here will likely forever ebb and flow. So, unless that issue is tackled, it's probably not worth too much time debating, no? ;) --Buddy23Lee (talk) 07:24, 10 September 2015 (CEST)
