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 That's the thing though, the easiest solution is that they're just watching us through our stuff.
Elliecat Not tracking our digital soul.

Hitori Togusa We're back on the question of why, which we can't answer until we can physically find one of our overlords.
Hitori Togusa So what to do in the meantime? We've got a lovely platform for communication that we don't know why it was built, so what do we use it for, instead?

Elliecat All I've been doing so far is just asking people to tell me if they figure anything out.
Elliecat Or find anything weird.
Elliecat Knowing is half the battle and all that.
[ooc: Sorry for the delay, I was on vacation.]

Hitori Togusa However they have their network set up? This thing was still running during the blackout last month.
Hitori Togusa And we have enough other police officers on here. We've got the makings for almost a back up emergency network. Not to give preferential treatment to the people that have the app, but if everybody on here is willing to keep an eye out for people that don't have access when things are going wrong in the city?

Elliecat Though I'm not sure I like the idea of relying on this...
no subject
Hitori Togusa Hmm. This needs a better conceptualization before I can go to anybody with this.
Hitori Togusa Because the problem is the app's unreliability? Sometimes messages still don't go where they're supposed to?

Elliecat You're probably better off just creating a phone chain.
Elliecat And getting people to install landlines.
Elliecat They work even when the power is out.
no subject
Hitori Togusa Retrospec probably owns what's left of all the old Bell stocks. Make the cell phones too annoying to use, get us all to switch back to landlines.

Elliecat There's copper phone wire everywhere. Those phones will work for decades.
