The term may also be used by trolls, those misinformed, or as a bad faith identity. It can also refer to [[singlet]]s who are confusing experiences of being polykin with plurality without malicious intent. The term was originally used in this manner and may be considered a red flag in some communities, especially ones with a large kin and plural intersection.

Kin systems is an umbrella term for many different definitions, including;[1]

1. A system whose members are kinforms/forms headmates from their kintypes, or their kintypes gain autonomy and become system members.

2. A person who’s stuck between otherkin and plural. A person who could be considered kingenic, but is stuck between Kintypes that feel self-contained and autonomous, and a system. Similar to a median system, where you’re interconnected and less distinct than multiple systems (also called kincontinuum).

3. A person who became a system through having a kintype of a system (usually called being System-kin).[2]

4. An umbrella term for different people who feel like their otherkin-ness and pluralness are interconnected and related to each other.
