  1. "The Falador Massacre"

    So this was an "event" that happened on the MMORPG RuneScape back on 06/06/2006, 10 years ago today. Player "Cursed You" was the first to achieve level 99, the highest you could achieve, in construction; a skill that allowed you to build your own house to your liking, complete with things such as a fighting room, a dungeon, trophy room, etc. There was a lot you could do with this skill. Cursed, being the first to achieve level 99 held a massive house party. This is where things got a bit messy.

    During the party, in which hundreds of other players were at, caused a massive server lag and Cursed kicked everyone out of the house. Now, people who were in the combat ring who were fighting were able to fight others in the main world, something you cant do unless in certain minigames or in the "Wilderness", the game's player killing area. Player Durial321, went on this massive killing spree in multiple towns, starting in Rimmington, culminating in the city of Falador, where most of the killing took place, and eventually ending to Edgevile. Hundreds of other players were killed and the development team had to be called back into the office (in the middle of the night cause Jagex is based in England) to create a hotfix for the issue. Multiple players were banned due to the exploitation of the glitch and the mods apologized to anyone that was a victim to the incident, but didnt return the lost items.

     

    Today, Jagex is making light of this event, opening a special world for the day (World 666) allowing everyone to kill each other in Falador. This event is special because the world temporary gives everyone max stats, the tools and everything and let the players have fun recreating this event. It's actually quite amusing and a little interesting that Jagex is making light of a major (and accidental) bug abuse event.

  2. See, one of the more recent cases for Whitewashing in Hollywood is for Doctor Strange: The Ancient One is being played by Tilda Swinton... but the character is originally from Tibetan decent. Co-writer Robert Cargill compared it to the Kobayshi Maru in an interview but I think the real reason for the change is so Marvel can still market the film in China... in which China has attempted to seize control of Tibet and the geopolitical climate in that region is rather tense. If this isnt the real reason then well I'll admit I was wrong. But if it is the reason then it makes Marvel look bad as they had to sacrifice integrity for profit.

     

    But as the others said, sometimes you have to sacrifice integrity for the performance but it all depends on a variety of characteristics.

  3. I would also like to report the missing agents Buster the Squirrel and Marvin the Moose the cybernetic canine Sal3na-Mk.4. These were some of the best agents we had and if you have any information about their potential whereabouts you are asked to contact a member of Her Imperial Majesty Queen Sally's Royal Guard, asking for Captain Sorzo in the process, or flag down Guardian Wulfsbane

  4. Arcan, this is by far one of the best character analysis I have read for an Archie Sonic character. I think you dug up something a lot of fans would have considered trash and found the lone bright spot and show just how good a villain Patch was. His plan was extremely good and it nearly worked too. I think Patch could have been one of the better villains of the series if things didnt turn out the way they did

    i would have tried to make her more like she was in season 1, pair her up a little more with the other character during missions/episodes, and pretty much just try and develop her character more alongside everyone else. 

    Expand on that a bit. Give us a scenario along the lines of Season 2. Who do you think Bunnie would have been best with in an episode?

  6. Like SatAM Reconstructed, I pose the same idea but with the Archie Comics

     

    You ask a question about a plot point, issue, or anything that left you confused or nit-picking from the Archie Comic series. Then, everyone else tries to come up with an interesting, exciting, and intelligent answer for it. It's not a game about criticizing - it's all about improving.

     

    Here's the first question: How come when Mobians were Roboticized they were able to move, however, when the same process happened to an Overlander they became paralyzed. What is a possible reason for this?

    In a world where the majority of the population is Roboticized, why does Robotnik consume so much resources and builds so much industry? What needs are being met by all this industry in a world with only Robians (who don't sleep, eat, drink, buy yo-yo's, ect.)?

    Part of me thinks it has to do with the upkeep of the Mobians itself or the fact that it apears he hasnt conquered the whole planet yet as Snivley mentioned other Freedom Fighters before (I think he said they were in the North?), but the real reason has never been explained. I do want to know why this is so.

     

    Here's a good question I have

    HOW was Robotnik able to hide his true intentions all long and not even a single person suspected anything and if he took over the city wouldnt he have been able to figure out Knothole's loaction via something in the castle (like a note or a map of the kingdom?)

    For content, I have a number of older stories that I'm still thinking over wherever or not I'll bring them over here. There is certainly ONE I want to bring over, but it's Freedom Planet instead of truly Sonic related, so I'll have to see. And I might bring some fanart over...'might' being the operative word here.

    Nevertheless, I hope this new website turns out well for all. :)

     

    Bring it over man. Even if it's based off of Freedom Planet there's a few of us here that are fans of it (myself included, even talked to the developers before). Bring your art over too. We can help you improve
