Our avatars are posting on a forum thread.

Go To

This is a thread where, as the title implies, our avatars (from our galleries) are posting in an in-universe forum thread. You can drop in any time with pretty much any character you want, whether from existing works or your own OCs. Though most of it is done through forum posts, some "in-person" interactions between characters is also fine.

Even if this is a more casual RP, there are still some rules and general RP etiquette to keep in mind for everyone to have a good time and feel comfortable:

  • NO GODMODDING. Godmodding is when you decide what happens to another player's character, and is generally frowned upon. In particular, avoid injuring and especially killing someone else's character; fighting is ok but let the other player decide if the hit connects. If your plot idea requires something to happen to a different player's character, you'll want to privately discuss this with them and if they're ok with that. This includes in-universe moderation.
  • Be nice and respect other players' boundaries. Your character being mean or a jerk is one thing, but if someone gets uncomfortable about your behavior towards their characters, knock it off. Also do not force others into your story arcs; in general it would be a good idea to ask the other person first if they are interested, and plan it together if they are.
  • If you have anything to say, ask about, ect. that is not part of the RP, you can put it under a spoiler tag [[spoiler: like this]]
  • While almost any character is welcome, please avoid playing any real-life person who's mainly associated with controversies, drama and problematic behavior. We don't need that here.
  • Have fun!

    Original post 

Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.

And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.

In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

[up][up]I know for a fact that the homeworld of the user with the handle "Gustone" got destroyed and blown into chunks, and judging from Urist (Urist or Uirst?)'s problem-solving approach, I wouldn't be surprised if their version of Earth has been blown into pieces too. I'll have to ask a physicist how many kT TNT it would need to blow up Earth, because that seems surprisingly common compared to, say, the Sun reaching the end of its lifespan on the main line and turning into a red giant.

And since the match of Kolhi probably won't be today - about that, how about tomorrow? Or the day after that? - ...

[up]Coming over! If there's news of an alien ship in the sky, that's probably me. Please don't shoot me down.

Ica has a huge supply of extra-durable titanium, which, with today's technology, is really hard to mass-produce. Think Mann Co would give him an ingot of Australium (and maybe some extra data on Australium ore processing) for a big-enough batch?

If it disagrees with experiment, it's wrong.

[up][up] Just one question Ica, are your “ramming fighters” still active? I do not want something bad happen while we’re away from our school…

Well to clarify its just the end result what actually happened is the same idiot who invented FTL travel conveniently forgot to restrict the area affected and hadn't figured out how to direct it before testing. Also at the time all i was in charge of was a single mineral extraction vessel.

[up]x5 Sorry, that name is just really hard to keep track of. I assume it doesn't have anything to do with the Shark Punching Center? [lol]

[up]x4 The ramming fighters don't fly anymore because their aerodynamics suck and they burn way more energy than they need. I've replaced them with a different fighter model, which you may be able to spot one with a telescope or with a good eye. Though they still won't be able to do real damage, just scare the Lunarians away - is that a bad thing?

[up]Oh. Sorry for jumping to conclusions that quickly, then.

This definitely isn’t the 41st Millennium. For one there’s no T’au, Necrons, Orks or even the Imperium of Man. Might as well stick around to see what’s going on. Sorry for not introducing ourselves. We are the Tyranid Hive Mind given sapience. Yes, “we”. It’s a hive mind, what did you expect?

Another collective intelligence. At least you’re somewhat relatable.

Want to hear a joke?

I’d rather not.

How do bees get to work?

They fly there?

No, they go on the buzz!

Ha ha. That was an excellent joke, really amazing.

Also, did any of us figure out why, exactly, we kept the Outsider’s Dyson Sphere? Because its mad ranting and raving was driving us crazy as a cockroach.

I don’t know. I would normally advise you to get rid of it, but that’s not really possible. So maybe keep it in a safe place out of the way of anything.

Uncertainty detected: Subject: “Kohli”. Uncertainty: Which of us is taking part. Answer: The birds can play, sure. Just count them as a single individual for all intents and purposes, because they’re not really able to play as is, so they’ll be inside that robot we were planning to use.

We had to take out some group of bastards that call themselves Ganglion that invaded our land. Rough fight, but they're out of here.

We didn't do it alone. We had help from Elma and her team.

We kicked ass and took names, but they couldn't stay. Said they have help out their own world, which is fair.

[up][up][up]Nomination? Bloodbath? What have you gotten yourself into!?

I'd definitely avoid something called a "Bloodbath" like a disease.

Why would you put yourself there in the first place is the bigger question.

[up]Either that or someone who really dislikes you.

Anyways, some fun facts about Australium:

1. It's combustible, and it can be used as rocket fuel.

2. Mann Co. plates some of their weapons with it.

Let me reiterate: Mann Co. plates weapons - firearms - with highly combustible material! ...Why???

I don't remember the Doomsday mission perfectly, but I know that it was one of Gray Mann's plots to steal an Australium cache for his life extender. Was the Australium actually used as fuel or was it just placed in the rocket for no good reason?

If it disagrees with experiment, it's wrong.
