My apologies for not using the standard form. The following doesn't seem to fit in with it.
There was a recent discussion on speed doublers/triplers/overdrive, as well as confusion as to the top speeds of vessels of the Plumeria lineage as well as missiles. Specifically, there was no provision in the DRv3 standard for or against them on the wiki and some articles still possessed them -- even ones being currently submitted.
Eventually, the proof of their rejection from the setting had to come not from the wiki, but from the memories of some players and Wes' statement in the forum, six years ago: https://stararmy.com/roleplay-forum/index.php?threads/panopteles-class.7164/#post-116623
The Plumeria and Fuji have since had overboost removed by Wes, and the Turbo Aether Plasma Article has as well. Given that the lack of documentation caused this problem in the first place, however, I request the following sentence (or some better interpretation to be defined in this thread through discussion) be added under the "How fast can I go" section of the DRv3 wiki page:
"Means of exceeding these speeds (previously employed as overboost, speed doublers, and speed triplers) were removed from the setting as of January 1, 2011. Articles containing these aspects are obsolesced and should be corrected."
(Edit: Sorry for putting this in the wrong area, thanks for moving it.)
