[recollecters]

Hello Users, For those of you who are new: 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. 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. For all, new and old: Please be advised that should you go above and beyond the call of duty for Mr. Halloway's little game in the coming days, there may be a reward granted or information given. 100% completion would be the goal for that, should you have an interest. If you have no interest in the matter, please feel free to carry on as usual. R&D will not be handling further communiques for this month, or possibly the next few months. This should not, of course, have any impact on your usage of Retrospec™. The first milestone for the second of the colors lost has been met, and accordingly we have diverted resources to fix what could be fixed. R&D has alerted me that a bigger loss may occur in the near future, and I would advise you to be careful, though I am afraid neither they nor I can be much more detailed than that. Finally, I would like to extend congratulations to those of you who have now reached your sixth month. We hope you will continue to accept our assistance in these trying times. Thank you for your patience, Janet Wiseman Human Resources Retrspec Incorporated As of this post green fruits and flowers of this color regain their pigment. (Note: this is not all plants. This is just for flowers and fruits!) 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. Any new characters will find that the first photo they upload is locked as their profile picture for the rest of the month. Characters who have been in game since February will find their profiles now have a 6 months badge. It does absolutely nothing of note.

"A bigger loss that may occur in the near future."

Prepare yourselves, people. We might even lose the colours red, orange, pink, and god knows what else. Save yourselves while you can.

[crushcard]

A bigger loss? At this rate, anything bigger would be to spontaneously delete parts of the world, or to rewrite our memories of the world as we know it, entirely.

Oh wait. You're already sending us hallucinomemories of different worlds, same difference.

I'm fairly certain we're gunning for 100% completion eventually. Thank you for your concern.

Hitori Togusa I knew it.
Hitori Togusa You guys are trying to help. So then, should we be bothering to work towards putting resources to fix this, as you put it? Or should we back off and let you do what you need to do?
Hitori Togusa Just. Everyone else, the people who aren't dragged into Retrospec. Are they safe from us?

[overtwohundred]

wow no passive aggressive wikihow link
i like this chick already
way better than that dork jim

sidenote has r&d considered just doing
not that

[destiny_key]

omg jim is gone!!!!!!
and janet is here!!!
i hope shes better than jim

but boo on 'bigger losses' whatever that means :(

also theres new people???
hi new people!!! :)

[protegge]

janet can u wisely tell us why you guys hate blue so much
you dont have to reveal the next thing just whats the beef with blue
whats blue done to you

also whats your favorite kind of poetry no reason for asking
i just happen to be taking a poll anyone can respond ;)

[commandertoolbelt]

okay so janet's not a body pillow after all
i like her better already

though she still didn't say if she and jim are actually engaged

[parodeity]

see this is why you put human resources in charge of talking to people
and not like lab techs
probably
i mean apparently talking nicely to people goes a long way
even if its mostly saying the same stuff as jimbo without the jabs and casual lingo

that aside what would be a "bigger" loss than colors and horses
is everyone w/out the app gonna bite it
that seems like a plausible concern to me sometimes

also
fourth of july plans anyone
there better be a lot of fireworks this month or ill be sorely disappointed in all of you
just forever

how do we earn other little profile badges i wonder
i get a useless sense of achievement looking at it

[appraiser]

limericks are fun! are you writing poetry?

[darkinferno]

looks like someone finally realized they didn't have the computers locked down enough. what, you guys didn't think to change the password from "We<3Retrospec"?

no passive-aggressive wikihows this month but i don't know if i want know what this "little game" that's coming up is about, especially since we already know this is all a game to them in the first place


[And a moment later:]

wait a sec

she said welcome to NEW users

looks like we get to start this whole ride all over again

[originallutece]

I wouldn't put it past them to say that and then take away something pathetically small.

[youraffection]

"bigger losses"??
wth is that supposed 2 mean?
bc after everything thats happened it sounds more like a threat
what a crappy marketing strategy. ur making ppl participate bc if we dont then we lose things that rnt rightfully urs to take in the 1st place!
rnt u supposed 2 b the reasonable 1?

also does this mean jim is on like work probation if ur here
bc that would b kind of awesome

[frostythehitman]

So what'd you do to Jim, Janet?

Serious question, no judgment. Because if you're keeping him hostage in a closet somewhere I'd actually be pretty happy about that.

But you and I and everyone else here knows you're still full of crap. "A bigger loss may occur"? You not being able to get any more detailed? You're the ones doing it to us, obviously you would know. You're still just trying to yank our chains, you're just being a little nicer about it.

[insantafe]

"Game?" Do I even want to know what that's supposed to mean?

And what's this about bigger losses?

[notbunaga]

they shouldn't have been handling this to begin with...

well, either way
good to see Janet exists and isn't locked in jim's basement
and if they really are trying to fix mistakes instead of causing problems it's
kiiiind of a relief?
if this isn't all controlled it's a cause for concern
but I'd say if retrospec are legit here we have someone who knows what's happening and that's better than nothing, fighting a nameless corporation or something

i wish I knew why people fell off the network... but you guys never answer our questions
so i guess we'll just keep wondering

[digthefuzz]

whoa she's real
#janetisreal2401
and she's
relatively more helpful and clear??
or well she's not jim
congratulations, you beat the lowest benchmark

really hoping we could avoid losing anything else though!
i know they won't respond but maybe they'll still read this so here goes:
how about you guys just try not to make these times trying to begin with??

PS any models out there have any hot tips about the biz?

[destiny_key]

i dont know that she will tbh???
maybe shes embarrassed

or maybe in two months well get another awful amv with dancing fruit except itll be the wedding video

[seizedtheday]

It is just me, or am I actually more worried now?

[originallutece]

I rather liked the bit about their possibly not communicating with us for the next few months. Seems rather restful.

[destiny_key]

thats depressing
thinking about what else we could lose i mean

[splinten]

They already took our peace of mind.
I'm personally waiting for them to replace something with dinosaurs. Turning this place into Jurassic Park is a logical next step.

[protegge]

im always writing poetry cuz im amazing

[you liar]

arent limericks usually like there once was a guy from wherever

[sivard]

It's definitely not just you. This is some freaky crap.

[commandertoolbelt]

jim sounds more like the type to do that if you ask me
but i guess you can never really tell with these HR types can you

[overtwohundred]

no kidding
too bad we can't break in and just wreck their shit
that'd make me feel way better
