Discussion: Strange Happenings...

Anon, you should know that, in my years' experience, nothing has ever come of a shadowy post like yours. You aren't fooling anyone.

I've always wondered if all of those types of Anon posts are made by the same person. I picture them as an old mystic guy that talks like he posts. XD

Anyway, this doesn't change the fact that there are problems on the net. And while I'm usually not the hero type, this is the sort of problem that can hurt everyone, so I'll try to help as best I can.

DRUIDMAN.EXE IS MEDITATING

All were reborn of our Darkness, a Darkness that will soon consume them.

Not even their Light shall bar our path... and all shall tremble from our might.

Whoo, boy. Someone/thing's being a drama queen/king/it.

But this slow processing speed thing is worrying me. It almost sounds like some contrived plot device from a video game. Meh. When you go out to fight viruses with a netnavi every day, this kind of stuff should be expected.
Here's the thing: Electronics break. The web is just a big thing, made from many electronics. Who's to say that it's not just a minor malfunction?

...It would appear that I can't escape this, as history likes to repeat itself...

Who am I, you ask? Why, I'm the one navi who knows everything.

It has been a long 7 years...

...But I have returned.

-Fear the Scythe of Blood.

Seven years...

Why does everything revolve around that number?

Anyway... Scythe of... blood? I could have sworn I've heard that before.

...

Gunner, you've been around on the Net far longer than I. Input?

...

Yeah, I think I know this guy. The scythe part rings a bell, at least.

Well, welcome back... I've heard a lot about you, though I've never had the pleasure of meeting you face-to-face.

<Swift and Gunner.EXE>

A scythe, eh? You're practically Captain Obvious by now, 'mystery person'. Trying to find Silvia again? Pathetic.

Scythe of Blood? You don't mean...

-Pianissimo

Pfft, another dramatic one. Why can't you people just STAY in the hole you crawled out of? Seriously. You lost. The LAST thing you needed to do is come back seven years later trying to pick a fight again.

-Duke Rigel

Back? The news reported years ago that your last backup had been deleted. I'm sorry, but without any evidence we of the Netbattling community should take you for a history pundit with a penchant for sick jokes. I'd have other words for the real "Scythe of Blood," but I hardly think the Net's going to tremble in his wake even if he does return.

I have to admit, this is odd. Wasn't this guy all about being left alone seven years ago?

<Gunner.EXE>

Well... it would appear I'm not the only one who seven years can change.

In case it wasn't completely and utterly obvious from the comment I left before, yes, I'm back.

I'm also heavily changed-- For the better, I assure you --and I'm coming for you first, Darkholme brat.

In the meanwhile... as much as I love stealing News Server's topics with something completely unrelated, I'll end this lovely little conversation with this:

I'm back. And I've gotten rid of my emo streak.

-Drakkas

Just why exactly are you back, Drakkas? Do you have another little vendetta that needs settling? Why take it out on the entire net? Perhaps your rage is just too blind and unfocused by this point.

You may not be dead, but you've lost at least a few Rogues and substantial backing from the eyes of the public. The Net Police aren't the wimps the enforcement of the net used to be. You'll find this a bit more difficult than you're anticipating, I assure you.

-Donald Murdoc

The "Darkholme brat" is with us. A threat to her is a threat to me, and I'm sure the green man would share my sentiment. If you fight her, you fight us as well.

This was also in what he said about you... A similar thing happened in Yoka.

Swift, you don't know what you're getting into, especially after he's had seven years to become stronger.

I have confidence in our strength. I will follow you to the ends of the earth. But this will end only in death for us.

"He...?"

Yes. You will meet him one day.

...

<Swift and Gunner.EXE>

Drakkas, must you really let them provoke you into attacking them? From what my mentor told me, you let them do this before, the first time to assert your strength, the second time just for fun. If you try to beat down everyone who wants to bad mouth you, you might as well have them form a line. Seems kind of immature to let people tick you off like that. I remember also hearing about a certain time you showed mercy on someone who insulted you pretty bad and was hoping that if you ever did reappear, I'd get to meet that side, the mature one, rather than just the one who tried to show how big and powerful he is. Considering the one who made the comment, from the fact that an intial and last name are given, I'm assuming they're human. If you go to fight her, you're only going to hurt her navi. There's really no point in projecting your anger onto the one who's probably partnered with them not by choice.

-Wes

"Coming for him?" For who? Darkholme? This doesn't sound like the Drakkas I remember. If you were really "changed for the better," Drakkas, then you'd know when to step down. It was your downfall before and it will be again.

~Kazu

Whatever.

I could sit here and spit insults all day...

But that's not very good at accomplishing anything.

So rather, I'll merely say this:

Empty Threats work well to garner attention.

-Drakkas

I suspected as much, Drakkas.

Oh, and just so you know, I'm not buying the whole "wanting freedom" thing again. Your own actions will determine who's side I'm on this time, no matter what you say, and no matter how much I hate or distrust the NetPolice. Like I said...wherever you've been for the last seven years, go back there. Keep your damn crusades to yourself.

-Duke Rigel

I'd like to say something about your earlier comment...about history repeating itself. You lost the first time. If that statement holds true, what hope do you have of winning this time?

-???

Drakkas, you are appearing to present yourself as if you are responsible for the current events.

You and I both know that this isn't true. You wouldn't want to make the boss angry, now would you? This is HIS plan, and the experiment is HIS as well.

If I were you, I wouldn't want to make the boss mad, or else he may unleash his unholy creation on YOU.

Sorry to bother everyone, but could someone tell me where to register my navi for this?

-Rein

It seems like you've lost me here. Care to fill me in?

WERE FIGHTIN ANOTHER THAT GROUP OF STRONN VIRIIS? AWESOME!!"

-KoF&T

((Seriously...Is this another upcomming event?))

Drakkas aside, I'm also interested in competing against these unknown abnormalities on the Net. I suggest people who want to 'register' to just wait until we receive more information.
