Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. Usernames are the character's full real AU names, not aliases or chosen nicknames or usernames, and seemed to have filled themselves in; nothing characters do can change or obscure their names currently. Characters who have been in game for one month will find they can now change their profile pictures; newcomers are locked into their first choice. Upon opening this entry at all, characters will find themselves spammed with notifications and strange glitched texts until they make some sort of suggestion for a new application feature on the Retrospec app. This can range from a personalized friends list to a watermelon image gallery to a watergun charging station. It doesn't have to make sense or be useful - it just has to be a suggestion, at which point the application will return to normal.

Hitori Togusa This is your idea of a suggestion box? Okay.

Hitori Togusa 1: Please make your Terms of Service publicly available. Even if we don't have the option to opt-out, may we at least see what we've been signed up for?

Hitori Togusa 2: Make a better available way to filter posts by users, specifically for age filtering, so that not everything is visible to underage users.

Hitori Togusa 3: Related, on your end, you need a content quality team, so that we can flag things as age-inappropriate if we need to.

A few hours later...

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa You know. Add in the suggestion for a user list.

[In real life, there totally isn't an absolute mess of paper in front of Togusa as he's been trying to update his hand-written user list. This is getting harder to compile this time.]

[rednerd]

Tim Drake They need to just fire their designer and coder. If this got by the app standards, I don't know what the world is coming to honestly.

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa Maybe that's what this is, they already did fire their coder and are looking for whoever has the best idea to fix it.

[rednerd]

Tim Drake Best suggestion? Kill it with fire. In light of that, implementing a new feature isn't going to fix buggy code. But I guess if they want to cash cow, they could add a dating feature or some money shop games. Personally? Give me anonymity.

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa Even on the net, isn't true anonymity an illusion, though?
Hitori Togusa The right algorithm, with enough original data on patterns of people's behavior, and you'd be able to tell who someone is, even if their name and location aren't being displayed.
Hitori Togusa The little piece of behavior that makes you you would still come through.

[darkinferno]

[Ping.]

Dante Rantanen what, you keeping tabs on us, officer?

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa Are you kidding? I have real work to do. I don't have the time or inclination.
Hitori Togusa But I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to know who I'm interacting with here.

[darkinferno]

Dante Rantanen and yet you're looking for a full user list when our full names are attached to any comment we make on here
Dante Rantanen not sure where this sounds any less like keeping tabs

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa We just had a bunch of new users appear on the platform. I cannot be the only one wanting to double-check to make sure my boss or my ex-fiance are not on that list.

[wordcarvings]

Koutarou Takao Not getting anywhere with it?
Koutarou Takao Do you need to clean your desk again?

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa ..........Maybe
Hitori Togusa How do you DO that?

[wordcarvings]

Koutarou Takao So yes, then.
Koutarou Takao For how many years do you think I have known you now?

[true_noir]

Chloe Bouchard Would that they listened to perhaps even one of these, but I think we know better by now officer.
Chloe Bouchard Have you or detective Bigby made any headway yet, by chance?

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa I think they're listening. It makes an odd kind of sense.
Hitori Togusa Like they have this great technology, but don't know what direction to take it in, so they need some help from us.

[true_noir]

Chloe Bouchard If they weren't listening that would be comforting but even stranger.
Chloe Bouchard To go to this much trouble and not pay attention, one would wonder a great deal about.
Chloe Bouchard I already wonder enough.

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa I think they're trying to build a good platform. It's almost a little too easy to get worked up about this.

[curseoclock]

Henry Lovett what, nah, i counter-suggest that
Henry Lovett i vote we traumatize some kids

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa O-kay, so I know you're just trolling, and don't feed the trolls, but we've confirmed there are kids as young as 10 on here.
Hitori Togusa Who got added to this without parental consent, mind you.

[curseoclock]

Henry Lovett lol wow seriously
Henry Lovett i thought it was like teens at worst
Henry Lovett ha ha wow this seriously is just a lawsuit waaaaiting to happen!

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa Yes. If it were only teenagers, I think I might still mention age filtering, but I wouldn't be harping on it so much.
Hitori Togusa But when you get a lot younger than that? No.
Hitori Togusa There are definitely people considering a civil suit, yes.

[killyoubastards]

Anise Tatlin aren't age filters kinda pointless, though?
Anise Tatlin I thought everybody just typed in fake birthdays if they wanted to see stuff

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa Well, there's a funny thing. Have you tried to type in a fake age on here?
Hitori Togusa One thing Retrospec seems to have gotten right, at least. Closed up that trick.

[killyoubastards]

Anise Tatlin ???

[She tries it...]

Anise Tatlin oh.
Anise Tatlin That's kinda creepy, how it doesn't let us choose what info to put in here. If I get targeted by a stalker, it's totally the app-maker's fault!

[standalonehuman]

Hitori Togusa Well. I hadn't thought about that. But, the stalker can't hide their identity, either.
Hitori Togusa So I guess, if it happens, you come back to me, or any of the other officers on here, and we take care of it for you.
