Can quirks have self-control numbers?

[Stripe]

Personally, I would not add them or allow them. But, one of the biggest reasons I wouldn't is because quirks are really just minor role-playing aids. They're fun little things that don't really have too much rules association. Like Mailanka said, they are meant purely for role playing. Use them or don't; not a real big deal.

I'm pretty strict on the whole "it's not a Disadvantage if it's not a disadvantage" thing. For quirks, however, I pay them little to no mind as a GM.

It's been my experience, though, that players role play quirks even better than Disadvantages! So, it's never once been an issue in my 15+ years of GURPS experience.

It's called giving an example. That's what Mailanka was doing. What you said changes nothing about his example, which I agree with.
