    The Forum remixed through various video games

    <Portal>

    "Spectacular. You appear to understand how a forum affects discussion quality, or to be more precise, how it does not. Discussion, a function of words and grammar, is conserved between forums. In layman's terms, garbage goes in, garbage goes out."

    "The Forum promises to always provide a safe posting environment. In dangerous posting environments, the Forum promises to always provide useful advice. For instance, Get-A-Grip will insult you. Try to avoid him".

    "Did you know you can donate one or all of your vital organs to the Franck Pauly self esteem fund for iMac's? It's true!"

    "The Forum reminds you that Twirly's Weighted Companion Cube will never threaten to stab you and, in fact, cannot post."

    "The Forum reminds you that Twirly's Companion Cube cannot post. In the event that Twirly's Companion Cube does post, the Forum urges you to disregard its advice."

    "At the Forum, if at first you don't succeed, you go off in a huff."

    "Keep doing whatever it is you think you're doing. Trolling you and giving you good advice aren't mutually exclusive. The semi-circle really is the way to go."

    "Have I lied to you? [pause] I mean, in this post?"

    "Didn't we have some fun though? Remember when you were a beginner poster and we said "You suck" and you were like 'NOOO WAAAY' and I was all 'we pretended we were going to name-and-shame you'. That was great..."

    "Speaking of curiosity, you're curious about what happens after you leave the forum, right? Guess what? I know! You're going to find out first-hand before I can finish telling you, though, so I won't bother. I'll give you a hint: you're going to want to bookmark www.cerocscotland.com/forum/search.php?do=getnew so you can keep checking to see if we miss you."

    The announcer will give auditory feedback of the reaction to your posts. A post receiving two 'Thanks' will be announced as "Double Thanks", a post recieving 3 'Thanks' will be announced as 'Multi Thanks", and so on. In order, the announcements are "Double Thanks", "Multi Thanks", "Mega Thanks", "Ultra Thanks", "Monster Thanks", "Ludicrous Thanks" and "Holy Sh1t!". (Unfortunately, after commenting on this post, the announcer caused the forum to be blocked by 99% of work filters and then died of a cerebral haemorrhage).

    Re: The Forum remixed through various video games

    Great idea David, and I couldn't resist:

    <WoW>

    Pug no-progression-likely run of the 25 man <insert current popular debate> argument scheduled for Wednesday.

    Required: 3 Commercial Operators for tanking, 3 plants for tank healing, 4 moderators for group healing, 4 'viscous pendants' for crowd control, 11 miscellaneous vocal forumites for dps. Gender balance will be enforced.

    All players' credentials - gear (particularly shoes and underwear), previous experience and general popularity - will be checked before invites sent. If found to have misled the group about your credentials, you will be mocked and replaced. Noobs should refer to the training runs of 10 man Ragefire Chasm on Sunday afternoons.

    If we don't finish on Wednesday, we'll carry on until everyone falls over with exhaustion/quits/finds a new raid topic.

    <the hobbit>



    You are in a large room. It looks like the Big Brother house. There is a sign saying "The Forum: Please wipe your feet".
    There are a few people here. Beowulf sits down and starts singing about gold.
    David Franklin makes a coffee.

    Davina MacColls dead body lies here.

    >search davinas corpse

    You find hair products and a handkerchief.

    >go west

    You can't. Its like the bloody Hotel California in here. You're going nowhere.

    A vicious poster enters.

    The vicious poster attacks you with random incomprehensible words.

    You are dead.

    You completed 0% of the forum.

    EDIT Drat by time I'd wrote this Tessa beat me.. hehe

    <World of Warcraft>

    For years the world of Azeroth has been gripped by bloody conflict. Two bitter rivals, the Jive Alliance to the east and the Ceroc Horde to the West have been catapulting flaming posts into each others capital cities for years. However, now as more land opens up to daring explorers a new enemy has appeared, the West Coast Scourge.

    we'll evesdrop on a guild of fearless adventurers as they plan their progression through this turbulent world.

    >Guild Chat:
    >BeoVylfe: Hey guys! wassup?
    >Dredscather : hi mate.. not much just levelling spinning to 450
    >Ducassy : Just trying to put a raid group together for the "Halls of Blues" you in?
    >BeoVylfe: Remind me.. which is that one again?
    >Ducassy : it's in northern eutopia .. you need to battle though increasing levels of blues dancers before you get to the boss. a lvl 80 elite elemental.
    >BeoVylfe: Elemental?
    >Ducassy : yeah.. a Rocky one. size of a cliff face, has a special attack that will rip you to shreds in seconds. ignores armor.
    >BeoVylfe: OMG! how do you counter that?
    >uyuuhfeugs YELLS "GET YOUR MOVES HERE CHEAP! CHEAPER THAN OTHER FRANCHISES ONLY $5 FOR 2 moves!"
    >uyuuhfeugs YELLS "ONLINE AT WWW.GOLD4MOVES.RU
    >Ducassy : Damn move sellers! anyway only way not to get attacked is not to attack him. quite simple really.
    >BeoVylfe: cool.. so who's all going?
    >Ducassy : well theres me and YelloLorry as guild moderators to make sure we dont do anything silly, Dredscather and Robed-dee as DPS, Cruel_Ella as she knows a few spells to use on the Rock Elemental. and well, you if you want to come?
    >BeoVylfe: yeah sure.. when you going?
    >Ducassy : right now.. we can summon?
    >BeoVylfe: Sweet ok...

    some time later.

    >BeoVylfe: pant! ok that was tough.. just the boss now?
    >Ducassy: yup. You all buffed?
    >BeoVylfe: got improved musicallity and shield of utter irrellevance.
    >Robed-dee: Sharpening my blade of wit just now.
    >Cruel_Ella: got a few healing pots here if you need.
    >Ducassy: ok we should be ok as long as no one does anything stupid.
    >Dredscather :ALRIGHT! LETS DO THIS!!! LEEEEERROOOOOOY SCATHEEEERRRRRRR!!!!!!
    >Ducassy: what? no Dred just ran in.. and he's started attacking the elemental lord!
    >Cruel_Ella: I'll do an AOE DOT post..see if that does anything.
    >Ducassy: no he's to clever for that. He's retaliating with a carefully crafted argument. Damn he's right too !! I'm dead!
    >Robed-dee: Me too
    >Cruel_Ella: Arrgh! get him off me I'm a cloth wearer and dont have my killer dance shoes!
    >Cruel_Ella: Nope too late I'm dead.
    >BeoVylfe: I'm feigning irrelevance. Posting some rubbish and adding a to it. nope he's seen trhough it.Nope I've wiped!
    >Ducassy: we all have. Damn that !! Dred what were you doing?
    >Dredscather : I just wanted to use this new attack I've got. and he's the only target worth using it on. I love fighting that elemental, even when he wins


    and as the sun sets on Azeroth, The battles continue. This has been one of them,

    Leeroy Scathe was inspired.

    Only problem is, I don't actually play many games, so I'm somewhat struggling for inspiration now.

    Re: The Forum remixed through various video games

    <oblivion>

    Hello new forumite. I am Patrick Stewart and was a Frenchman in Star Trek. Welcome to the forum.

    I've had dreams where I saw your avatar. You are the saviour of the forum...as is probably everyone else, who i also saw in my dreams.

    [ as you travel through Forum world, you will stumble across many threads and see many posts ]

    location: The Singletons Sofa

    You discoverer a den of screaming harpies. They are discussing handbags. You use stealth to sneak back out again withouth being spotted. You have gained a level in stealth.

    location: The Chit Chat area

    You wander in and out of threads, sometimes you have to logon first. You misquote someones post. Suddenly a moderator is IN YOUR FACE. You pay the fine rather than get an infraction. The moderator wanders off dissapointed.

    You derail a thread with a completely off topic post. You get a PM from "An Assasin" asking if you want to join them - with details of another thread to post nonsense in to prove your loyalty.

    location: browsing who's online.

    There is someone called "Mountain Lion" also looking at who's online. Several people rep one of your posts. "Mountain lion" changes into "GIANT BEAR". How'd that happen? merde! its now "GIANT FRIKKIN BEAR". You go into a random thread. Arrgh. It's in the same thread as you, and your vocabulary sucks. You read the forum FAQ and gain a level in HEAVY SARCASM.

    location: Main Quest Thread

    Some coherent posts appear, they are almost like Portals to the world of dance. You read them and enter a world of hot shots and demons.

    etc...

    Re: The Forum remixed through various video games

    in "honor" of the upcoming release to That game on the 7th of Dec I've resurrected this old thread..

    Press release


    Bliss-ard Entertainment have announced the latest expansion for their award winning online role playing game "World of Floorcraft"

    The expansion , "World of Floorcraft : Ceroclysm" is the biggest upheaval in the game so far, and with less than two weeks until its launch the internet has been buzzing with speculation.

    Hidden away in a secluded sanctuary, the corrupted Dancing Aspect DeathDrop has waited, recovering from the wounds of his last freestyle competition and biding his time until he can reforge the world in sultry blues.

    Soon, DeathDrop the Seducer will return and his eruption from Bluesroom will sunder the world, leaving a slippy wound across the dance floor. As the Ceroc Horde and the Jive Alliance race to the epicenter of the Ceroclysm the various factions will witness seismic shifts in power, the kindling of a war with the elemental slotted dancers, and the emergence of new unlikely heroes who will rise up to protect their scarred and broken world from utter devastation.

    Two new playable races .. The Lupine Wulfkind - Skilled engineers, mathematicians and philosophers but rarely seen in dance competitions and the mischievous Smurfins - masters of disguise, comedic posts and a natural distrust of stone elementals.

    Level cap increased from Hotshot to Bruno Tonioli

    New Dancefloor content

    Classic weekenders remade.

    upgrade on-line and go dancing the minute it's released.

    Despite the 2011 release date, it seems strange to see the phrases "very soon" and "Duke Nukem" used in the same sentence...
