I say "OK, guys. You wanna improve those attributes? Fine, but you've gotta
gimmie a reason how you could suddenly become
tougher/stronger/faster/smarter overnight." (this is followed by a lot of
things like "I go to the gym every day!" "I buy some smart-Ds!" and
"Doesn't
walking on hot needles make you tougher? My guru said so!" aso. Those
arguments _never_ work.)

Or I just say, (the dreaded words) "No, you can't"

Or I say "Hey, you guys really did well this time, you can use your karma to
improve ONE of your attibutes one step if you like."

The only rule in our group is: ASK YOUR GM IF YOU CAN!

I usually dislike anyone improving their attributes over racial max. It's
also rather expensive. (14 points for a 7 anyone?)

That's how I stop 'Mikes'.

PS..Mike was a human with all attributes 6es+cyber mods. This was _before_ I
started enforcing the above rule...DS
