LOADING...OVERFLOW

[recollecters]

Hello and happy new year! A lot of poll results came in from R&D and we've almost fixed taste all the way. Horses are almost fixed, too. We've been working pretty much non-stop around the holidays to stabilize everything, so I hope this works! Just so you guys know, while we were working on fixing the original problems we received some alerts of residual effects outside of our usual domain. Don't worry though! Remember what I said a while ago? We're still moving more resources around into better defenses to protect the city from huge storms like last summer. We'll be taking care of that really soon and isolating the unknown problem. I wish I could tell you more, but we're all working overtime here to finish the final stages of a big project. No matter what happens you guys should be safe while we finish up, so just stay calm, okay? Don't get too reckless! Joanne Wiseman Technician 2nd class Retrspec Incorporated As of this post taste tier 4 has been icly regained; tier 5 will go into effect on Saturday, January 6th at 9pm EST and taste will be fully restored!

You cannot expect us to stand idly by after you have given us warning of an incoming calamity. Not all the users of this application were users during the "storms" of last summer. While many users who were present have been quite forthcoming, more information given at the start would allow us to prepare appropriately.

On a lighter note, I do appreciate the work that has been put forth to return taste and horses to us.

Well, I suppose in that instance, you should get your fill in while you can.

[mercurio]

man it's still kind of depressing though

[embearass]

If it is any consolation, I do hope that both chocobos and horses get to stay.

[mercurio]

the damage is done.......
but nah yeah i think that kinda compromise would be best

Ah, yes, I can see how that would be uncomfortable as well.

[maidhem]

It was, but it's all better now.

Did you have tips for starting a window garden? It sounds like you've got some experience!

[embearass]

Not specifically for a window garden, however I do have some gardening experience.

I can't imagine that a window garden would be that much different.

I figured as much. It was worth a shot, in any case.

yooooo

[browbeater]

at least they're not really pretending to be just some app anymore.

[embearass]

I'm sure that's meant to be reassuring but in this case, it is not.

[browbeater]

i think it is, actually. since they've dropped the fake customer service role, for the most part anyway, we've found out a lot more about who they are.

and what role we play in this mess.

this is actually an improvement in some ways.

[embearass]

But not one in others?

Unfortunately, that is something we will need to agree to disagree on.

But, yes, sparring with swords and shields. As for the armor style? I've done some minor research into medieval armor. It looked similar, but at the same time dissimilar? If I could draw, I would show you.

Hitori Togusa I've usually been sending people to my friend Koutarou Takao, if you need something drawn. He's amazing.
Hitori Togusa But, go with your instinct on it. You think it's a knight, you're likely right. Expecting that you're going to start 'remembering' some more obscure fighting styles, next?

[embearass]

I imagine fighting on horseback with a sword or lance?

In full armor, of course.

I was thinking more along the lines of horse riding lessons, if you were interested.

[thebeastwithout]

oh!

yeah that'd be way sweet! i'd be w

wait
hold on
is this part of your plot to try to sway me to the dark side

you can't get me so easy!!!

even if i get riding lessons chocobos are still better let's get that clear from the start

[embearass]

You are welcome to your opinion, of course. Just as I am welcome to mine.

[thebeastwithout]

well
ok fine

but you should really spend some time thinking about my opinion and how it might be cooler than your opinion

just saying
