I've noticed lately that Trash Talk has been getting quite crowded. I've also noticed that the [url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/cgi-bin/ubb/forumdisplay.cgi?action=topics&forum=Avara+web+board&number=4&DaysPrune=20&LastLogin="]Avara board[/url] is totally dead. I propose that we try to take it over very slowly, until we can claim it as our own.

Well, compared to how it used to be.....
I agree. We can also initiate a hostile takeover of the Cythera webboards with careful planning.

No! Not Cythera! I like you well enough, but Cythera is a place of quality. Posted Image
Unless you want to take part in a TS or two, maybe? In that case you're welcome. Posted Image

What is TS? I have no experience with Cythera.
And don't worry about quality, give us 2 weeks and we can bring them down to our level....

Ah, but while I am forbidden from interfering over here, if you invade Cythera it'll just be a bloodbath. And I'll need quite a lot of soap and water to wash my hands.

We think this is a good idea. We should then move from board to board, stripping them of their resources and leaving them dark and strip-mined. We are the Trash-talkians, resistance is futile!

Coincidentally, we have a *gasp* new member, and thus a topic in which the basics are explained. This one

Ugh...in that case, I'd rather have it stay dead...
On secound thought, though, the Tavern (as it used to be, see Best of Cythera) might be something for some people here... with a bit of effort, quality-wise (on your part Posted Image).

I came up with the idea. That's my contibution.

I nominate The Journalist. He is the embodiment of all that Trash Talk stands for. He also has a high post count and a few karma, so he is a less likely suspect of rampant spamming.

I'm not in any violent and materially harmful way.

I second dude3's nomination of The Journalist.

If you succeed with this mission and start looking for other boards to attack, I'd be glad to negotiate your peaceful annexation of the EV board.

After Avara, however, I reccomend you go after the other three Ares boards. Then try for Nova. That'll probably be easier than you might think.

Good luck.

I don't know if taking over the EV board is a viable option. The natives ountumber us 10000:1.

The other Ares boards, while being an easy conquest, don't really expand the Trash Talk empire, as their members are also residents here.

You could take over the FAQs, there's about 30 of them, or so.
