Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options. Anyway, now that the copypaste part is out of the way! Jim here, requesting you guys make your secret meetings a little more exciting. It's not like you're not trying with the whole "let's meet off the network!" dealio, but I have some serious concerns. For one thing, no secret handshakes or phrases? Not even dramatic meeting locations? The trying rating is about half a star if that. And I'm almost bored to tears with the whole back and forth about what's going on. Not bored enough to give you a cheat sheet, but still. I can't get myself taken off surveillance duty, so at least try to make it a little more exciting! You guys might like this wikihow. Later! Jim Halloway Research & Development Retrspec Incorporated 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 more than one month will find they can change their profile pictures; newcomers are locked into their first choice. At various points throughout the day users will be sent images of themselves from behind, regardless of where they are. There doesn't seem to be any way to catch whoever might be taking and sending these, however, especially since being alone in a room doesn't seem to be a deterrent.

so on a scale of quadruple layer that stuff to get the tin foil hat Minako

how much of a good idea would it be to tape over the camera on my phone and laptop

I'm sure Jim would find a way around it, perverts ALWAYS find a way

but anything to deter him, right?? (￣□￣;) even though I'll miss taking snapchats

also hi to all our newbies, I'm sure you have a lot of questions, so feel free to ask anything (￣^￣)ゞ

[matchbreaker]

What do you mean by newbies? This has gone on without anyone knowing before now?

[complementing]

pretty much! 100% guarantee that all the new people used to be normal citizens who wouldn't think anything was weird if someone like me showed them the app

[matchbreaker]

How the devil does that even make sense?

[biellmann]

They're taking pictures from behind so it probably won't help. Just a heads up

[complementing]

SIGH these incredible assholes I wonder if they have some sort of secret spy camera technology that's stuck onto our clothes or something

[biellmann]

I don't want to think about it. Isn't there a sci-fi book like this?

[flexer]

I'll shoot: How long has this been going on?

[complementing]

I think this February is the earliest? though some weird stuff happened in January before that... let's just say January so five months Σ（￣□￣；） time flies when you're dealing with your whole world turning upside down

[destiny_key]

hi minako!!!!!!!!! :D

[complementing]

oh hi Sora!!! ♥♥♥♥ I was hoping you wouldn't get dragged into this but too late for that now I guess some advice from your big cuz: if you start getting stuff in the mail, don't be TOO alarmed, but you might wanna hide it from Auntie so you don't alarm HER

[crushcard]

... newbies? how long have you been on this app?

[complementing]

on the app? from earlier this year in February but weird stuff was happening before that in January too either way it's been WAY too long (꒪▿꒪)

[appraiser]

Minako, be honest with me: do you think i need a haircut? i never noticed from behind but it look a bit long in the back
that's something good about these pictures at least
you see how you look to others too

[complementing]

hmmm I never really thought about it you always look great to me! but speaking on a practical level it's going to get even warmer soon so having a liiiittle bit of a haircut will probably help you keep cool (´•ω•`๑)

[true_noir]

I'm pretty sure it won't do any good, Minako. Don't stop doing something you love because of this creep, ok?

[complementing]

good point! no tape then idk though Chloe I feel like the longer we go on the deeper down the rabbit hole we go what else can we possibly do to fight back against these guys?

[lingeringwill]

wtf min

[complementing]

use your words like a big boy, Terra

[cattack]

I do have many questions.
But the photographs I am receiving are taken from far away, not my own phone's camera.
So I don't believe that would do anything.

[complementing]

true enough! maybe in preparation for the next step they're planning instead? I wouldn't put it past them to start using our cameras to spy on us, if they aren't doing that already oops maybe I shouldn't have said that Σ（￣□￣；） I'll delete this after you reply to it anyways what kind of questions do you have? I'll do my best to help!

[chiseler]

wouldn't recommend tape, Minako. all the sticky residue would be hell to get off the camera sooner or later. could always flip your case upside down?

[complementing]

I could live with sticky residue if I knew I wasn't getting peeped on but your suggestion makes a lot more sense ヾ(≧∇≦*)ゝ

[originallutece]

This is rather a pleasant surprise, Ms. Arisato. Though I'll say in response to your question: given the photos are typically coming from behind, I doubt covering the cameras on one's phone or computer will do much.

[complementing]

hi Professor! I'd say it's nice to see you except I can't say that with complete honesty, not while we're talking on this app ε- (◡Д◡) hehe okay yeah you're probably right, plus one under the 'get the tin foil hat' option it is! still I say with complete seriousness to please be careful (´•ω•`๑) it's hard to explain with just words how weird stuff can get as a Retrospeccer
