I thought it was funny.

OOC:
Woah... Did I miss something?

I would post IC now but Flad is talking to Borso so I need to wait for AlexFill to post.

enchilado 11-29-2009 09:26 PM

Miss something? In another thread we were talking about religion, and Ackro now hates my guts because I'm an atheist. He PMed me about it and put me on ignore.


Anyway... Alex?

I doubt it's because your an atheist, maybe Ackro was just annoyed with the situation.

This may be the thing I missed :p

Not sure what this question is...
AlexFill the guy with the red Slig avatar, Borso gave Tok his wings, creator of "The Creeper" RPG. Borso and Flad were going to remove Ackro's pants from under the sign (If AlexFill agrees to it of course.)

I'm starting to feel bad about all of these OOC posts. I may have to resort in bringing Slen in early, before Arnie reacts to the message sent to his computer (three or four pages back I think. EDIT: Page 18, post 539.)

enchilado 11-29-2009 10:23 PM

I know who Alex is! I meant, "Alex, where are you?"

;)

MarsMudoken 11-29-2009 10:55 PM

OOC: Being awesome.


Now look, I'm a little confused here. Ackro shouldn't be mean to you because of your religion. I honor Zeus and the other Greek Gods. Yes, it's ridiculous but: your religion should not pit you against others. So let's just play the RPG, and have a good time, because Splat and Dripik are going to be mad at us (especially you enchilado. No offense but murder's still a crime). So honor your religon, but don't get mad at others.

enchilado 11-29-2009 10:58 PM

Actually I was joking when I killed him. Maybe I should have put 'ooc' at the start ;)

Anyway, I can edit that post, if anyone would like...?

Splat 11-30-2009 01:53 AM

ooc: Guys, quit talking about religion in an RPG thread. If I went around hating atheists I wouldn't have any friends. Especially on this forum.
I think it is perfectly obvious that one should ignore Ench's post, but Ackro, if you're not going to RP with everyone, I don't see how you're going to manage, especially when your character is drawing so much attention to himself.

I know I need to post IC, but sorry; I really can't construct a post right now. Later today...

AlexFili 11-30-2009 03:25 AM

OOC: This is getting a bit too much for me, I need a break.

Borso and Flad were going to remove Ackro's pants from under the sign (If AlexFill agrees to it of course.)

Yeah sure, no problem.

IC: Borso knew he REALLY shouldn't take a nap. Especially not at a time like this, but he just couldn't focus. His eyes were closing of his own accord. He made sure nobody was looking, then he lay his body upon the floor. He closed his eyes and began to snore.

slig# 5719 11-30-2009 04:59 AM

Flad and Borso worked together to pull Ackro's pants out from under the sign. Flad took the pants from Borso. "Right, i'll just put these over by the door so they're easy to find if that blue guy shows up." Flad said to himself, he placed the pants near the doorway and leaned them against the wall. "Well I su..." Flad looked at Borso to find him lying on the floor snoring. "I guess i'll look for the blue guy myself. I wonder if that Tok guy's found him yet." Flad thought and took the Main lift to the first floor.

AckroTheSlig 12-01-2009 10:46 AM

Ooc: ...

-------------------------

Ic: Ackro sighed, laying against the cold floor. "I'll never get my pants back.. I'm doomed."
He let his tentacles feel around the floor for any bits of food that'd been dropped.
"How could I have sunk this low.. all the sligs want to kill me it seems, for my different appearance from theirs.. and now my pants have been taken from me."

slig# 5719 12-01-2009 01:54 PM

OOC:
Tok's near Ackro isn't he?

IC:
The Main Lift reached the first floor and the lift doors opened. Flad walked into the corridor where he could hear mumbles echoing through it.
"Huh, who's that? that voice sounds familiar." Flad thought. He looked around and could see Tok hovering by some shadows, he began to walk towards him.

"Hey, Tok." Flad yelled "Did you find that..." As he approached Tok, Flad could see the red glow of Ackro's IR lenses in the shadows, no Slig with pants would be that short. "Oh, there you are." Flad said to Ackro and then looked at Tok "Thanks for finding him, I'll take him back to his pants." He said. "Your pants are upstairs near R+R, where the sign fell on you. The quickest way there would be by the lift and I doubt you'll want to climb the stairs without any pants." Flad said to Ackro "Well lets get going the lift's just over here" Flad spun round to lead Ackro to R+R "See ya later Tok, thanks again for the help." He said as he began making his way to the main lift.

AckroTheSlig 12-01-2009 05:24 PM

The screech of Ackro, lifting his Ir lens across the floor as he lifted his head up, echoed, the sound bounces off the walls that he was pressed up next to. "Oh, there you are." Flad said. Ackro, holding himself up by his weak, tired arms, looked up at Flad.
"Why should I trust you, or anything you say for that matter?." He asked, twisting
his head to the right, his neck cracking. "I'm not sure if I can trust anyone.."
Ackro turned his head away from Flad, staring blankly into the other direction.
"You see.. Tok, tried to shoot me.. who's to say you won't try the same?"
He straightened his back, and a few more crackling sounds arose from his shoulder
blades. Ackro's tentacles were releasing a blueish goop from their tips, from where he'd been laying on the cold floor.

MarsMudoken 12-01-2009 09:46 PM

Strange. Right when people say things sped up it slows down...

Also who likes my Christmas logo? :D

enchilado 12-01-2009 09:58 PM

Santalf Clause! Or is it just one of his alfs?

MarsMudoken 12-01-2009 10:18 PM

Na, just me, Mars the Mud. Hmm...I should draw myself...

AckroTheSlig 12-01-2009 11:34 PM

I think I will quit, I'm sick of having my rep power removed for no
apparent reason.

MeechMunchie 12-01-2009 11:36 PM

OOC: People usually leave a reason next to the blob in your UCP.

MarsMudoken 12-01-2009 11:38 PM

OOC: WHAT!? PLEASE NO! You're really funny! And if I were smarter I'd figure out how to +rep you.


QUICK! EVERYONE +REP ACKRO!!!


...maybe me too?
Na kidding.

enchilado 12-01-2009 11:43 PM

Ackro, please don't leave. Someone, please +rep him - I need to rep more people before I can rep him again.
Reputation doesn't matter, really it doesn't. I had -18 at one point, you're not that far gone yet. Just stay here, your RPG posts are really good.
Just make sure that you follow these rules when posting:
1) Don't insult anyone, unless it's obviously a joke or Havoc. #edit#it was a joke##
2) use proper good grammar and you're posts is easy to read
3) Don't write bullshit.

I'm not saying you've ever broken these rules, but make sure you follow them. And most important of all,

4) Don't think people hate you!


EDIT: And I will post IC soon.

enchilado 12-01-2009 11:55 PM

[-- IC --]

Flad took Ackro away to help him get some pants. Tok watched them go, then muttered, "That's that taken care of. Now... I'm gunna go pay a visit to the terrorist. Teach 'im what happens when he breaks into my factory. Hyuk hyuk."
He chugged his way - slowing, stopping and zooming at full speed - to the lab cells, where he entered and saw not just the terrorist, but another two Mudokons as well.
Had he been walking, he would have stopped in his tracks, but as it was he pushed the gear lever down instead of pulling it up, and there was an enormous bang as the pants shot forward. Instantly he pulled the lever straight up, and the pants halted; he did not. He was flung from them to slam straight into the cage door of the cell containing the terrorist, and he slid slowly to the floor. He swore as he blinked up at the three Mudokons.

[-- ooc --]

That was a "joke". But it was a terrible one. I said, "Don't insult people, idiot." Hahaha.

Ackro, please stay!


EDIT: Mars, go to the UCP and check on your most recent reputation points earned...

MarsMudoken 12-02-2009 12:14 AM

YAYS!!! :D


IC: Mars had been moaning a second ago; next this slig walks in, his pants glitch and he gets ejected from his pants. Mars jumped back, as the slig crashed and fell down. He said a word Mars didn't recognize, and just lay there as Mars blinked at him, confused. Mars regognized him as the slig who he hit, this one and rust pants...'HEY!' Mars thought. 'IM A GENIUS :D!!!'.

Mars pressed his palm to the bars, and his tattoo brightened up again, but this time the energy flowed to the bars of his prison. Soon they began to rust. Rust and rust, till Mars removed his hand, gave them a gentle push, and they crashed down and shattered. "Owned" Mars said, a wild grin on his face. He jumps on the slig with both feet. Then, standing on him, his tattoo power went to his feet and Mars practicaly danced on the slig. He then jumped off and said "pwned". He walked over triumphently to Anni, saying "Alright, what now?"

OOC: This is hurtful considering the man playing as this slig I beat just +repped me. Oh well...

enchilado 12-02-2009 12:40 AM

[-- ooc --]

Nah, it made me laugh. I'll wait for Anni and Hembar before I post again.

slig# 5719 12-02-2009 12:42 AM

OOC:
@Mars: I just figured out how to post rep (YAY me :)) you click on that picture of scales in the top right corner of the post. (In industrial skin anyway, don't know about the others. EDIT: I just checked it's the same for all the skins.)

Oh Noes, Mars is speaking internets :D.
Yay Christmas logos.

@Ackro: Pls don't leave, Flad and Ackro have just soberly met :p.
Your character's quite paranoid for a highly trained soldier :p.

IC:
Flad had just turned round to lead Ackro to R+R when he heard his voice behind him. "Why should I trust you, or anything you say for that matter?." Flad turned round and Ackro continued speaking, "I'm not sure if I can trust anyone.. You see.. Tok, tried to shoot me.. who's to say you won't try the same?"

"He tried to shoot you?" Flad said in amazement, "Well, anyway if I wanted to shoot you wouldn't I have done it already? I mean you are in a pretty weak state at the moment. Besides if you remember YOU shot at ME, and don't think I forgot about the grenades, I doubt they came out of the machine by themselves. But past is past and unwanted bloodshed is the last thing we need. So are you coming or what? I doubt you'll want to be pantless if that native escapes."

MarsMudoken 12-02-2009 12:49 AM

Yes Slig #5719, despite my highly advanced speech capabilities, I speak a moderate portion of El-Three-Three-Seven, also known as Leet. SO GTFO MA FCE N00B ROFLMAO LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!


Heh, I love being good at spelling and bad at it :D!

And try your own Christmas logo! Just put a santa hat on your slig...and maybe you can make it look like your slig is heaving a big preasent...

Splat 12-02-2009 02:08 AM

ooc: Guys, please stay on topic. Ackro, please stop deciding to leave every page. Do it or don't, but make up your mind.

IC:
Grace wondered mildly what was going on as the glukkon he was talking to was suddenly pushed away by a slig. "Go on, get after them," He said to the Snoozer. "I'll keep an eye on the boss."

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

"Hey, leave him alone!" Anni yelled as Mars started jumping on the slig, "He cant' do anything without pants, and if you start hurting him when he's helpless then you're just as bad as some of them are! Anyway, now you're out we should do something for your leg or you'll just hurt yourself more."
She wondered if Hembar might have some healing power but decided not to mention it in front of the slig. On the other hand, now the slig had seen her with the native, things might become bad; her best hope was that he was too disorientated from his crash to recognise her.
"We should get out of this room," She said, then lowered her voice, "We can lock the slig in here." Immediately after saying it she had to suppress a shudder, remember lying on the floor of this room alone, feeling so sick she thought she would die...

MarsMudoken 12-02-2009 02:22 AM

OOC: IM EVIL!!!

IC: Surprised at Anni for speaking for a slig, Mars's face went kinda surprised and shocked. At these times he just does what they say. "We can lock the slig in here" Anni said. Mars picked him up and threw the slig in.

OOC: This doesn't count as god-modding right?

IC: Mars turned his head and looked at Anni again. "Alright," he said nervously "Now what?", ignoring Anni shuddering.

Splat 12-02-2009 02:54 AM

ooc: I meant lock the slig in the room, not in a cage. Anni doesn't want to be identified all that much.

AckroTheSlig 12-02-2009 10:51 AM

Ic: Ackro whined a few times, looking away for a moment in shame.
"Well, anyway if I wanted to shoot you wouldn't I have done it already? I mean you are in a pretty weak state at the moment. Besides if you remember YOU shot at ME, and don't think I forgot about the grenades, I doubt they came out of the machine by themselves. But past is past and unwanted bloodshed is the last thing we need. So are you coming or what? I doubt you'll want to be pantless if that native escapes." Flad said, while standing at the elevator.
"Yeah.. that's true.. but we have on small problem with me following you
at this, moment." He tried to lift himself up, but his arms gave out,
tired and soar from all the previous running.. his arms simply
couldn't move anymore. "I feel my muscles pulsing like a fleech that'd just ate a Mud.." He tried once more, but again his arms gave out of him, and he fell forward, his tentacles laying on Flad's legs. "Gah, shit.. why me?"

Ooc: Sorry about the whole "Quitting" thing, I'm just sick of my rep
being taken away.. I was finally back up to one, now I'm neg- Five..
I didn't say anything to deserve to be knocked down so far.

If you think you got negrep for an underserving/stupid reason, you can always PM a mod about it.

I gave you about five reputation points, one at a time, and got you up to positive. Check the main page of the User Control Panel and you can see who took Reputation off you. Whoever it is probably has a rep power of 5, unless it was two people.

Now.

[-- IC --]

While he was still lying on the floor and blinking, Tok was vaguely aware of a blue light. Suddenly the door of the cage rippled and and then cracked and splintered, and the Mudokon terrorist stepped out.
He has powers! Tok thought. It's Abe! I know it is! He's returned.
Suddenly Abe jumped on him. He pummelled him with his feet and danced on him. Tok felt one of his arms and a rib crack.
Then he was hoisted into the air and tossed into one of the cages. The door swung shut behind him.
"Oi!" he said turned and blinking up at the three Mudokons. They were plotting together! He had to tell the boss!
"Let me out!" he half coughed, half screamed at them.

MarsMudoken 12-02-2009 01:01 PM

OOC: Jeez, Mars is 12. He's not old enough to be CLOSE to Abe. Abe's like 20 mud years and Mars is 12. Common mistake...and kinda stupid.

Gretin 12-02-2009 01:02 PM

OOC: Like I said Ackro, the rep doesn't really make any difference to anything anyway.
And to Splat and T-nex, I won't be so easily corrupted!

Mars, I think Tok had flying pants, so he didn't walk in, he flew in.

Also, I don't know if it's a rule as such but it generally tends to be more realistic and more polite when people don't jump from one location to another in a single post, unless it's like two adjacent rooms or something. Just because it gives other people time to react to you actually coming to the room, instead of them finding you suddenly appearing in the middle of the room without giving them a chance to do anything.

Anyway, that's my rant over :p

EDIT: Mars posted while I was writing this - Mars, I think he's aware that your character's not Abe, it's just that his character Tok in the disoriented state he's in has jumped to the conclusion that it's Abe :p

IC:

Before Mars could answer Hembar's question, a flying slig (Tok) came racing through the lab entrance. Appearing to have some technical difficulties, the slig went flying out of his pants straight into the door of the cage, the pants crashing on the ground in the main lab rooms.

Then, the native mudokon started using some spirit power and broke out of the cage himself. Wasting no time, he immediately left his cage and started jumping on the slig.

"Hey, leave him alone!" Anni shouted at him, "He can't do anything without pants, and if you start hurting him when he's helpless then you're just as bad as some of them are! Anyway, now you're out we should do something for your leg or you'll just hurt yourself more."

Then, as the other mudokon complied and stopped attacking the slig, she added "We should get out of this room, we can lock the slig in here."

Appearing to misunderstand exactly what Anni meant, Mars shoved the slig into one of the cages and locked him in there, then he turned back and said, "Alright, now what?"

"Come on," Hembar said grimly, and lead the other two mudokons out of the cage room, closing the door behind them. (OOC: I hope this is ok with you two, Splat and Mars)

Walking over to the main lab doors, she operated the controls and shut that door as well, to avoid any more unwanted interruptions.

"Alright," Hembar addressed Mars, not sounding too happy, "would you mind telling us exactly what you're trying to achieve here? Attacking that slig is only going to cause trouble, and not only for yourself either."

OOC:
Yeah. Well we can still just walk through the lift. It's still on the way :).

IC:
Flad and Ackro where in the corridor, by the doors of the Main Lift. Flad was about to walk in when Ackro replied, "Yeah.. that's true.. but we have on small problem with me following you at this, moment." He tried to lift himself up, but his arms gave out. "I feel my muscles pulsing like a fleech that'd just ate a Mud.." He tried once more, but again his arms gave out of him, and he fell forward, his tentacles laying on Flad's legs. "Gah, shit.. why me?"

"Aha, thanks for keeping my pants near by, Flad.. But I've got to see what's going on..
Unless your deaf, there seems to be something going on near by." Ackro said and Flad went with Ackro through the lift and to R+R. Ackro seemed overjoyed to be reunited with his pants. Suddenly a scream echoed through the corridor. "I think that came from the lab." Flad said. "Oh, no. We took the Native there!" As Flad was saying this Ackro was already running to the lab. Hey, wait!" Flad shouted "That native's dangerous." He began to run after Ackro
Flad when he reached the lab saw the door beggining to close, although with his old rusty pants couldn't stop in time and ran straight into the door and ended up as a heap on the floor.

He picked himself up, "Damn, we need to get in there." Flad thought and noticed the door console. "Of course" Flad approached the console and tried to open the door. "This may take a little while. Somebody doesn't want us getting in." He said.
