Greetings, Users. Our system may be experiencing some residual glitches from a recent network malfunction. Our technical team is working on getting these issues under control. Please direct any concerns in the meantime to the HR department at humanresources@retrospec.com. Our staff has furthermore noticed a significant increase in tags and trends for #aprilfools and #pranks. Keep on your toes and be certain to tag your best tricks for Retrospec™! 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. Any emails sent to the HR department will be returned with a failure to send notification, and will furthermore automatically be posted to the Retrospec network. Oops? Characters who have been in game for one month will find they can now change their profile pictures. Glitches will be in effect until the 15th and may include: -Usernames changing to a cat, dog, or bird pun. -The Retrospec application being changed into a neon color + animal theme of some variety. -Notifications going off at random and being unable to be turned off. -Various "special effects" crossing the screens when people comment. -Users having to beat a level of pac-man to access the application, and then being made to beat a new level every hour to keep using the application. -Thomas the Tank Engine memes being sent to users every hour for some reason. -Profile pictures being replaced by pictures of rabbits and easter eggs. -New creepy pasta stories appearing upon log-in, to be forwarded to someone before the app can continue to be used -Parental lock and auto-correct on cursing (i.e. fuck -> duck) -A parade of pixel Chocobos or dancing fruit scrolling across the screen after each comment posted

Elliecat Well I don't know if I'd go that far,
Elliecat Who knows what tomorrow brings?
Elliecat Oh I'm fine, just busy. I think we're all busy lately.

[caelestialis]

Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora We're certainly going to keep being busy with the the rest of the month.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora If only to have an excuse to look away from the screen for a bit.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora I'm wearing sunglasses now to keep the neon glare to a minimum.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Leave it to Retrospec to make something fun as neon annoying.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Next thing they'll do is make jogging awful or something.

[notyourutopian]

Elliecat It can't be that bad.
Elliecat The glare I mean. Mine is obnoxious but I wouldn't call it painful.
Elliecat I think we should stop giving them suggestions though. I was doing that earlier and realized we might regret it.

[caelestialis]

Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Not giving them suggestions is a good thing for us to do.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora I gave them suggestions earlier about photo filters.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Now I'm regretting it because who knows how they'll interpret that.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora I've had enough of Thomas the Tank Engine, shockingly enough.

[notyourutopian]

Elliecat Maybe this is the photo filter result.
Elliecat It's just your whole life is in photo filter now.

Elliecat I kind of like the Thomas memes though, they're cute.

[caelestialis]

Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Oh nooo.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora That's such a scary idea.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora I think I'll take all the Thomas memes over that.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora At least a lot of the memes I've been seeing are very relatable.

[ especially the ones with puns. the puns have been delightful to read. ]

[notyourutopian]

Elliecat You'll turn around and suddenly everything is the old timey gray photo blend.
Elliecat The blink: FILM GRAIN.
Elliecat Right? Puns are a nice change from dancing fruit at least.

[caelestialis]

Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Noooo!
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora I'll definitely take all the puns and jokes and trains all day, any day.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora After all: Puns about monorails always make for decent one-liners.

[notyourutopian]

Elliecat Wow.
Elliecat Just when I think the puns cannot get any better, you pull that one out.
Elliecat I think you truly might be queen of the dad jokes.

[ooc: Sorry for the delay, I was on vacation.]

[caelestialis]

Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Hehehe! Thank you.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora I take great pride in having all the dad jokes.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora If only to make my friends and family groan in utter pain.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Gotta keep them on their toes! Or show them that there are worst puns out there.

[ ooc; not a problem! was busy myself so no stones from my glass reply comment. ]

[notyourutopian]

Elliecat I'm always the problem person.
Elliecat Instead of groaning, I laugh.

[caelestialis]

Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Looks like we'll get along well even more.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora I promise to make sure my puns around you are of quality at least.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Would hate to railroad our conversation to something awful if my puns aren't good enough.

[notyourutopian]

Elliecat I have faith in you.
Elliecat Just never let me down ever.
Elliecat :D

[caelestialis]

Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora 😶 😶 😶
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora I definitely won't now!
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Cross my heart and everything.
