Purpose: “Tear  Bombing” is a stretch of Voidal Tearing lore that lies in a similar spot to old Spiritspell, with a very large loophole that is only exploited to grief other builds where other similarly destructive lore requires PRO absolutely. Since it offers very little narratively and is more often than not used and intended to be used as a tool to grief nations by the players behind the characters, I think it should be removed. 

To be honest, the main issue with Voidal Tearing lore isn't the fact that, without PRO or RO consent, you can make tears smaller than 10 meters. It's the fact that, unlike every other method that allows you to "grief" a build or create a blight over a certain area, voidal tears and hollows are the only one that can't be undone by other magics such as Druidism or Shamanism.
 

Abyssal Necromancy, Naztherak, and even Witch Doctors have ways to create blights or corrupt land, yet they can all be fixed through rituals that require players and covens to work together. But the Void? Not anymore, ever since Squawk amended it for some reason

This was always the case (except for that one time on almaris

"Hey wanna see something cool?" As they then proceeded to cross their fingers over and whisper something about "domain expansion"

Given that tears require entire events to be dealt with and hollows are incapable of being fixed regardless of events (and usually require a sacrifice if you wanted to clean it to boot) yet does not need permission, yeah I'm happy with this. The hollow in the horde is only so small because that area was no longer owned and the structure was underground after baking for a long time and was unable to be handled as a tear

 

If it's basically set to destroy part of or a majority of a build why WOULDNT you ask for some permission before letting your super secret bomb nuke other people's hard work too? Allow for some interaction at least

The amendment came after the horde tear where druids attempted to "seal" the tear. At the time BH sealing just meant to basically encapsulate the tear within a bubble to prevent expansion and ST said no, likely because the tear was too old. But unfortunately the word seal may have gotten the wrong idea across that it mean druids were able to "close" them, which they weren't.

 

After a while of back and forth and nearly several people dying to said tear over an ST determination that was never even set down before, it was blown up and made into a hollow. Shortly after that amendments went through making it so druids are no longer even able to bubble the tears anymore.

TO BE CLEAR, this is my mandatory, legally required effort to amend this issue. There is more cooking that will make both ends of a tear more enjoyable
