Cambrian: Are you guys seeing what’s happening in Atlanta?
Kite: No, man, I was down in Savannah on a job when everything went mad. Most of the Players are in Atlanta, but Savannah’s got its own small super crew. Just a couple of us.
Frost: Oh? I didn’t know anyone had actually stayed in the less populated areas.
Kite: Well, it is a balance. Less super-crime, but less competition to deal with it. Also, we don’t have to put up with those racist drekheads in Southern Pride as much, so we’ve been able to get the city onside with us.
Anonymous3: How the hell did they get so much power, anyways?
Gedea: It started in Beta. The company decided it was going to be hands off on how the players interacted with the world. Southern Pride had a couple spinmasters working for them, charismatic types, or ones who just used subtle mind control, to make themselves the good guys. They had an agenda, and were working it, while the rest of the Beta players were just exploring the game.
SP: Their complacency was our opportunity. We’ll get to work cleaning up this virtual Georgia for all the right-thinking folks out there.
Thadulator: Ugh, one of them is in here. Which of those dumbasses are you, then?
Gedea: He is Inquisitor.
SP: How the--?
Gedea: Web Mistress isn’t the only one who knows how to sling code.
TechSupport: I don’t so much sling code as tell the code what to do and it obeys. At least in game. Outside, I’m just a normal White Hat.
TechGirl: Ooh, you’re one of the Misfits, then? I’ve been watching those broadcasts, you guys rock!

DragonKhan: Especially that vamp! She can bite me any time. Just so long as I get to tap that @ss!
BloodRaven: Well, I was getting thirsty…
Might_Makes_Right: YOU BITCH! YOU SMASHED ME TO PIECES!
BloodRaven: Hah! Guess that makes you Stonewall? Sucks to be you. Try not to be an idiot racist next time.
Yeller: When I get out of this hell where your demon friend sent me, I’m going to rip you into little pieces.
TechSupport: For the record, the score is currently Vampyra 3, Rebel Yell 0. And the worst any of Southern Pride has been able to do is hurt her, slightly.
Wehrmacht: Because the bitch runs away instead of fighting fair!
VanHelsing: Says the guy who is his own fucking army. There isn’t even any talent or skill there. You just use human wave tactics.
Anonymous4: But seriously, how are all these racist drekheads allowed to stay in the game?
BlessYourHeart: Because we haven’t kicked them to the curb, yet.
Yeller: We’ve already won. The people will fall in line once we start cleaning up the city and restoring the proper order of things.
ATLATL: Yeah, no.
CmdrTF: They won’t have a choice. We control the forces of government and all the power. We control the in-game press.
BloodRaven: I dunno, the press was pretty complementary on my little display in front of your building.
CmdrTF: Inquisitor will see to that. I will see to you, personally!
TechGirl: Haven’t you already tried, and failed?
NightFlyer: Doesn’t matter if you take her down. The rest of us will stop you.
Wehrmacht: You and what army?
ThunderCaller: Those of us that escaped your cowardly attack. We’re organizing, and heroes from outside Georgia are coming in, too, to take you down.
BloodRaven: 3131 N Druid Hills Rd NE
Wehrmacht: !!!!
BloodRaven: Don’t need an army if I take out yours.

Anonymous6: You know they’ll try to trap you, right?
BloodRaven: Of course, but they’ve tried that before, and never managed it. The ones with the best chance to do that are either reset, or banished to another plane.
Might_Makes_Right: I may be reset, but I’m still going to make you my bitch.
Might_Makes_Right: And then we’re going to find you in RL, and make sure you never cause us any trouble again.
CoCMod has entered the chat.
Might_Makes_Right has been kicked from the chat. (CoCMod)
MOD POST: PVP in game is accepted and allowed under the rules. Threats, harassment, or violence outside the game are not permitted. (CoCMod)
CoCMod has left the chat.
MisfitMaiden: Well, glad one of the assholes is out of here, at least. Rocks-for-brains probably didn’t know that there’s always someone listening to the chats here. We’ll just have to wait for him to get back in game to burn him out.
BloodRaven: True. I wonder if he’ll be stupid enough to try the same thing as last time, or if he’ll try something new?
MisfitMaiden: That idiot? Well, he was the first one to actually hurt you, right? He’ll probably just double down on it and try to make himself shatterproof.
SP: I will delight in flaying your avatar’s flesh from her bones.
CmdrTF: After we defeat you, we’re going to keep you alive as long as possible, so no quick reset for you!
DragonKhan: They’re a real salty bunch, aren’t they?
BloodRaven: Well, they didn’t bother with brains, and their brawn just can’t get it up, so…
TechGirl: *pft* HAHA!
TechSupport: I’m surprised they haven’t noticed that their in-game bank accounts have been drained, and they’ve had several very high interest loans taken out in their names. But they might not have gotten to those messages after I signed them up for ALL of the porn sites on the internet.
Yandere: ALL of them???
Cambrian: Sweet mother of god.
BlessYourHeart: How on earth did you manage that?
TechSupport: I’m a living supercomputer, processing 2500x faster than a human being. It still took me over an hour to do, partly because a few hundred new sites popped up while I was working.
Thadulator: That’s too much porn.
TechSupport: There’s already two hundred sites and tumblrs devoted just to Misfits porn.
Anonymous3: Who is most popular?
TechSupport: Well, the Reptilian has a strong following from the furry/monstergirl crowd, including a lot of people who want to ‘ride a dragon’ or set off on a quest to ‘lay the dragon’. And Pyramaniac is real popular for her disappearing outfits. But Vampyra is the most popular by far.
TechSupport: There’s even an entire site devoted to art and fanfic of Vampyra having her wicked ways with Southern Pride, including one where Commander Thunder Falcon and Rebel Yell get locked in bondage gear, with tail plugs and muzzles, and are forced to draw a carriage for Vampyra like a pair of horses.
BloodRaven: I’m too sober for this.
