PRIVATE MESSAGE: Oxymoronic [Moderator] [1] -> Ancient_Archivist [F] [5]

[8:37] Oxymoronic [Moderator] [1]: Please don’t leave me. I need your help to get through this.

[8:41] Ancient_Archivist [F] [5]: Oxy, with all due respect, you’ve been manipulated. Once you realize just how nonsensical Cupio’s threats are, you will leave all of this behind. Think of what the shamans of the old world would say if you told them you could reach the same transe state they perfected for decades by… looking at some low-resolution image for a few seconds?

[8:43] Oxymoronic [Moderator] [1]: It’s the most plausible theory right now. I honestly think we have something VERY special on our hands. Something that wasn’t meant to be discovered by us. This image belongs in the supercomputers of trained specialists, not our pathetic friend forum.

[8:45] Ancient_Archivist [F] [5]: You built this place with passion, Oxy. It’s the opposite of pathetic. When you could have recycled the code from some open source messaging platform, you instead took the hard path and crafted every single byte of this website on your own.

The real pathetic one here is Cupio.

[8:46] Oxymoronic [Moderator] [1]: That means a lot to me. Thank you.

[8:46] Ancient_Archivist [F] [5]: Always, friend. I won’t interact with Cupio’s delusions, but if you need to empty your heart, I’ll be right here for you.

[8:47] Oxymoronic [Moderator] [1]: <3

PRIVATE MESSAGE: tarr [5] -> Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]

[9:20] tarr [5]: If you weren’t such a shitter about it, this entire thing could actually be interesting.

[9:23] Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]: Then I suppose you are free to ignore my little operation. If everyone was able of creating their own motivation like you are, I wouldn’t have had to resort to such underhanded tactics. The threats are intended to stimulate those who lack the courage that courses through our veins, you see?

[9:25] tarr [5]: Don’t you fucking compare me to you. The only reason I’m here is to protect my family from your mental illness. I just want to wipe that constant smirk you probably have as you shit out your thesaurus-sponsored words and get this shit over with.

[9:27] Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]: Now now, let’s remain civil. If you have nothing to bring to the table but your painfully uncreative profanity, I would suggest using your valuable time in the pursuit of anything more worthwhile. Like finding new volunteers to explore the Maze, for example!

[9:27] tarr [5]: I did that already. I got a guy.

[9:28] Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]: You work quickly! Your diligence is most appreciated. Please provide me with a brief presentation, and I will approve their IP address.

[9:30] tarr [5]: Virgin. Spends all day posting on message boards and playing video games. Doesn’t give a shit about reality, zero fear of death. Dopamine receptors fucked beyond repair. Possibly suicidal, fantasizes about offing himself and reincarnating into an RPG world with witches to slay and bitches to lay.

[9:31] Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]: Quite the profile. I suppose I should have expected these types of individuals to be interested in a project such as mine.

[9:31] tarr [5]: Neckbeards and incels working with a pompous asshole. Yeah, no way this is gonna turn sour.

[9:32] Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]: Well, if it does, then there’s always the plan B which I introduced to everyone this morning.

[9:32] tarr [5]: Who hurt you?

PRIVATE MESSAGE: 10ne1 [F] -> karmIcCycles [4]

[12:24] 10ne1 [F]: Are you seeing this?

[12:32] karmIcCycles [4]: He’s gone completely mental *shivers*

[12:33] 10ne1 [F]: There’s no saving it. We need to get out of here. Delete our accounts. Pretend this never happened.

[12:33] karmIcCycles [4]: And unleash apocalypse on the world in a month? *stares* You know Oxy and tarr won’t figure it Cupio’s challenge on their own. Too sensitive and too short-fused, respectively. *shrugs*

[12:35] 10ne1 [F]: I’m not even sure if this entire thing is anything more than a big pile of bollocks.

[12:35] karmIcCycles [4]: It’s sadly very real. If you didn’t have that F next to your nametag, you’d be very worried. Unlike you, I remember my dream. It’s why I have a 4. *points at tag* That second picture you drew wasn’t from a videogame.

[12:36] 10ne1 [F]: >That second picture you drew wasn’t from a videogame.

Thought so. Didn’t want to pour oil on the flames, though. It’s still a cool character :D

So why did I forget? This seems like a memorable experience, if it’s anything like Oxy, Cupio or tree described it.

[12:36] karmIcCycles [4]: >So why did I forget?

I don’t know. Ask Cupio. *laughs*

[12:37] 10ne1 [F]: >Ask Cupio

Yeah, not happening anytime soon :)

Okay, so if you’re sure that this situation is real, what do we do? How can we give Cupio what he wants without losing our sanity, the stability of society or both of those?

[12:39] karmIcCycles [4]: *shrugs* Bring him volunteers. People who like puzzles, like he said.

[12:40] 10ne1 [F]: I suppose I do know someone insane enough to enjoy this.

Threads/Introductions/READ FIRST BEFORE POSTING: Welcome! [Sticky]

[12:40] Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]: Welcome, friends! I am please to greet you to the official Babel Maze discussion forum.

In this online space like no other, you will receive the opportunity to collaborate with a dedicated community to solve a very special puzzle: the Babel Maze. You will find within it a network of ultra-immersive rooms, each containing its own mysteries and dangers. Do you have what it takes to reach the end?

Once you will have consulted the various community guides available to you (work in progress), please send me a private message. If you answer the verification questionnaire satisfactorily, I will grant you access to the Maze. The next day, provide your expedition report, and your achievement will be immortalized next to your nametag for all current and future users to marvel at!

In the interest of efficiency, I’ve decided to make the Introductions section of the forum visible to anyone in possession of the URL address.

From now on, the application process goes as follows:

Fill in the application form, which you will find by clicking [here]. Wait for a response email confirming your acceptance. Access the rest of your forum, and begin your quest in solving the Maze!

I am looking forward to hearing from you all.

Kind regards,

Cupio

PRIVATE MESSAGE: treeisfun [3] -> Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]

[14:10] treeisfun [3]: this is what i wake up too

dude you think this shit is a game?

some amusement park attraction?

you have no idea what this shit does

we could have fucking died

[14:13] Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]: A game? No. First and foremost, it’s an anomaly waiting to be understood. But when it comes to marketing, one must do away with the scientific jargon.

[14:14] treeisfun [3]: you’re nothing like a scientist

you’re just a psycho

are you doing this because you failed your psych degree?

because you want to make up for it?

dude just try again i told you im sure they’d let you

don’t hurt others that had nothing to do with the decision of some pretentious college profs

[14:14] Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]: You seem to have forgotten the “It’s expensive” part of the equation.

[14:15] treeisfun [3]: it’d maybe help if you weren’t spending your cash on highway billboards

[14:17] Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]: That has not happened yet.

And besides, this experiment is so much better than all 4 of those years I spent rotting in isolation, cramming words in my brain and regurgitating them on blank paper a few days later. This is real science. It is what I came to do.

Now, I’ve already made up my mind. If you haven’t found any new findings about the Maze, then we are both wasting our time.

[14:18] treeisfun [3]: please man think of the elderly

think of the children

if you want answers just contact the intelligence agency

they’ll figure this shit out so much faster than we ever could

[14:19] Cupio_Dissolvi [Moderator] [2]: The only thing your typing is managing to do is damaging the painted letters on your keyboard by the repeated contact with your greasy fingers. Now, don’t contact me again until you bring more volunteers or more information.

[14:19] treeisfun [3]: i’d have never thought you’d have this shit in you man

you need help
