War on the Internet, Choose Your Role!

[Esotera]

I'm joining people who use newsgroups, BBS, and IRC, because in an internet war they are going to be the shock troops. Or possibly Amazon, just because I literally drool at the number of raw servers they would have to throw at any opposition...

 

[Athol]

I'll join whichever faction lets me play with the atomic artillery shells

 

[ErwinGodfrey]

The sounds of war ring out across the internet...

Due to an unexplainable event, various factions have sprung up across the Internet with the intent of destroying the others

The groups are:

The Meme Alliance- Made up of Memebase/9gag users

Tear of Aerith- JRPG/Anime fans

Gaming's Roar- IGN/Gamebomb/Screwattack community

The Minority Obsessors- An uber fandom/grammar nazi coalition



As the Escapist army, we manage to contain elements of each group. Now cast into the army, what is YOUR role in the effort? Espionage, front line fighter, anything at all!

Gather quickly; dark times are ahead...

I pretty much wouldn't be caught dead in the armies of any of those factions. Would it be all right if I played the role of an arms dealer profiting off all the factions? How about I be a fierce warrior from one of the various barbarian hordes from the vast plains of 4chan, ruthlessly sacking the settlements and farmsteads of the five kingdoms?

 

[MammothBlade]

My allegiance is with the Escapist but I won't fight against Tears of Aerith. I'll be an Assassin/Spy. Ranked at 1st Lieutenant because I'm not a people person.

 

[Zantos]

I'll take up my usual role of deciding who is the biggest arsehole and siding against them. Flitting allegiances allow me to ensure I'm on the side of the argument I'm most comfortable with. With which I am most comfortable.

 

[JamesStone]

I'll stick with the Escapist Army, just because the others are lunatics, and I don't want to join with the ones-who-we-should-not-talk-about.
I'll be a Sniper, or as the CoD Army will call me "fuking Camper Noob GTFO"

 

[Dragonclaw]

None of those sound terribly appealing...I'd like to either join with the porn stars (they are legion...and hot...so that certainly helps)or maybe just use my useful (though not HERE) spooky mod powers and be a wandering judge of sorts...

Why wouldn't you fight against the Tears?

Well, screw that list of groups. I'd form my own. "The coalition of the wierd"

That wierd part of youtube, creepypastas, what has been seen cannot be unseen, disturbing fan art, crazy conspiracies, all the mindfuck the internet has to offer under one banner of madness. We will force or trick them all to see the glory of infinite insanity, and the internet will be unififed in endless laughter. MUHAHAHAHAAA!

You sure you want to do that?

Maniacs don't have a good track record of winning wars/keeping the peace

Maniacs don't have a very good record of caring, either.

Chaos would be rampant if you succeed

Where does 4chan fall? I feel like in the case of war they'd be the safest place to be.

EDIT: Also

The Meme Alliance- Made up of Memebase/9gag users

So you mean those who abuse "le"?

 

[Optiluiz]

I... I'm not sure I qualify for any of those categories.

 

[Navvan]

I would have to join Tear of Aerith. As much as I like memes and such I am an avid fan of animation including Anime.

 

[Ruedyn]

I guess tears of aerith because I watch anime?

Regardless, Ruedyn, professional Cannon fodder reporting for duty

 

[Sean Hollyman]

I'm a massive DBZ fan so I guess I join the tears of Aerith?

Freelance diplomat. The thing about freelancers is that, if they're careful, they're the last ones to get shot.

Especially if they're diplomats.

Still feel like fighting the good fight? I thought not.

 

[Jackalb]

Out of those? The Minority Obsessors probably but I'd be a backstabbing ***** and just side with whoever wins.

Er, what now?

Also: There's an Escapist Army, fighting those forces. Our infighting is for peace times!

Oh, fine.

Although the point was that a real good mindscrew is the BEST kind of peace-keeping.

Where do Tumblr and Reddit fit into all this?
