[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. This post is an overflow from the original post here. Feel free to either carry over threads from there or create entirely new ones.

do you want my full honesty?
i can explain about myself
but not anything what jim's up to

[shinyidea]

yes absolutely
tell me your thoughts

[admiringly]

[ she's going to break out more punctuation because it's Important. ]

there are very many ways to love, and no way is better than any other way. i believe that with all i have, but i also don't believe there isn't a wrong way to love. love make the world go round, but some people are jerks. some people are creepy! people don't deserve to be creeped on!
we don't know what jim is like in private but we see him in a sort of professional setting, and it's not a great look. i can't approve of how he behaves?
he comes off as insincere and like he shouldn't be trusted because he's very cagey.
that he's making us play a game to get information is proof.
if he really is sincere though i'll apologize.
but if i'm really really honest, there are a lot of changes that retrospec has made that have made me really upset. since jim is also kind of the face of retrospec, that... transfers over, and i'm a little sorry about that.

[ she types, "i don't think i'll ever like him" and then deletes it. ]

i'm sorry that's tl;dr

[shinyidea]

[ mari reads this over, a couple times actually. she takes it very seriously!! there's punctuation and everything ]

it's not tl;dr.
the changes do seem very scary, from what people have said. could someone like jim really be capable of that all on his own?

[admiringly]

i don't want to believe he does but he says enough to make me believe he has some power.
maybe it's not all on his own but with all the resources that retrospec has.
whatever they are
but the way some people have reacted about trying to have secret meetings after jim called them out... it's hard to say it's only wild guessing on jim's part.

[shinyidea]

I see.
Thank you Chiyo, this provides a lot of perspective.
