A-terra Board Conspiracy!

[Dalan]

Its simple really, the A-terra boards are ruled by an elite class, a mixture of power hungry DMs and players, the likes of which no past regime of Thardferr has ever seen before.

A-terra you say?  Aren't they the good guys?  Well, perhaps they were at one time, but if you look carefully, you see seeds of secret organizations and a bourgeoisie like level of elite power-brokers bent on Thardferr political domination.  

I call them the Inner Circle.

How do I know this organization?  Because I was once one of them.  I sowed the seeds of change that started this whole mess.  I was once an Administrator and DM Council member, I was on the TC and even held the lofty title only held by myself, Head Administrator, with the power to veto any decision made by anyone.  

I know dictatorships are bad, but at least back then people knew who was in power, knew who made decisions, knew who to blame.

Now all Thardferr decisions are made by a secret dark alliance of power hungry "old-timers" and a spat of new recruits initiated into this dark cadre of malevolent by their willingness to put down the voices of dissent.  I never knew it would turn to this.

You think my claims are wild, look at the statistics.  60% of all posts are made by the top ten "elite" of Thardferr.  Look at the names on that list, all but one or two are current or past members of the secret governing body known as the TC.  You think it is a coincidence that 60% of posts are made by the ruling body of Thardferr?  

I don't either.  

Things are getting worse as we speak.  This month of March now has the top ten posters posting two-thirds of all posts.  We need to stop this now!

You see, when voices of dissent are well, voiced, they quickly start with a barrage of posts that overwhelm and subdue that dissenter.  the people never get a chance to see their voices heard.

Also, look at all the most active topics not available for viewing by the general populace.  Surely these are the topics in which they discuss the ways to subvert the masses to their will.

Who are these political masterminds?  Well, some are so secret I can't even penetrate the nefarious society in which they rule.  Let me start with the ones I do know intimately.  I don't want to go into the ones I don't know so well, in case I may be wrong on some fronts.  I want to be sure everything I state is 100% true.  Perhaps you can bring facts to those I do not know as well.

DM Kluu “The Master”:  An original old-time player finally fed up with the lack of power given to players.  His rise to power increased dramatically after he became a DM.  Within a couple months of becoming a DM, he ascended to the DMC.  Since then, he has ruled the dark elite along with his “Triumvirate of Terror”, also known as the DMC.  He is malevolent and egotistical.  Be wary to cross his path, for his angry is terrible and his retribution swift.

DM Rithas “The Kid”:  Also an old time player that I once considered my protégé.  He is a new member of the Triumvirate of Terror, yet his presence is already felt.  I believe his is the mouth to the one I consider the most insidious of the lot.

Nyrhtlyk “O’Brien”:  This old-timer plays a fiendish game, rooting out the voices of dissent by pretending to be one of them.  Though he pretends to be the dissenter, the “rebel” so to speak, if you look clearly, he supports the inner-circle on key issues that they need unanimous support in.  For this I consider “Nyr” to be one of if not the worst of the lot.

Though I have not named them all, I know you know more of about the others.  Share your knowledge here and expose them for what they are!

How can we fight them?  I’ll tell you how.  First: view and reply to this thread as often as you can.  Second: post and start threads as much as possible.  Be Active!  Fight the Oppressors!  They cannot win if the secret gets out.  You think the Sythians are bad?  The Inner Circle is 1000 times worse!!!

I may not be around much longer.  I might “disappear” really soon, but if you keep this thread going, and post more, they will realize that they would only create a martyr out of me if they get rid of me.  So come brothers and sisters, fight for Thardferr!!


(Finals are so much fun, especially upper level political science and global politics finals)  :wink:

[Scionist]

This is, by far, THE most entertaining thing I've read in weeks!  I commend you Dalan.  

Now, you will cease and desist any and all further posting about the secret society! :lol:

If you refuse, your "disappearance" will be swift and brutal! :twisted:

LOL!

Oh and you have to add one more option to the poll.

NO!  I am a member/puppet/pawn of the INNER CIRCLE and we will crush you and all who stand in our way!

[Payton Ironchisel]

Blast it Dalan! You reveiled them to soon now they will go even deeper into secrecy about thier workings.
 
Watch for the knives in the backs of thier pawns now that someone has exposed them they will want to tie up any lose ends so that they can reject all this as crasy ramblings of a insain man wanting nothing better to take down the power that holds the very fabric of Thardferr together.

Acually now that I think this conspericy therory through I think Dalan is acually part of it...yes that makes sence;

He reviels truths in a way that makes them look like they are not true at all then he warns people about this 'Inner circle' in a way that makes people laugh therfore hidding the acual fact that he is part of the inner circle. Nice Dalan very nice but it won't work see, I figured out your little plan. You are probly the grand Pumba of the entire shadow runners here arn't you?

Be awear of everything you say on these boards they are watching and reading your thoughts taking them for future refrence to use against the Realm of Thardferr and if I am not heard from again after this watch your back, lock your doors, and let someone else start your car for you.

[Vitriol Blue]

Haha you had me going for a few seconds there...

((shhhh Scionist...he didn't name us...you think he knows?  Maybe we are safe...mwahaha))

I would like to add that my posting has actually droped since I became a member of the TC...but maybe that has to do with starting school again

[Endel]

*motions to Kluu and Rithas* "Take him to the Nyrhtlyk. He shall feast on his bones."

*looks around the room* "Anybody else want to speakup?"

[Ranak]

*Ranak starts running around the room in a panic.*

"Dopple-gargan!  Dopple-gargan!"

[Mageblood]

Good stuff.

[Liriel]

*Looks about innocently*

[Cethlyn]

Lets her silence speak volumes.

[Horace]

Oh my god!  they've surrounded me!  :shock:

kluu is my Dm?!  He seems to be most innocuous, fumbling even.  His frequent misspellings and grammatical mistakes are merely a cover to mask an insidious mind?!

and Vitriol and Scionist have fallen under his evil spell as well!   :shock:

It can't be true.  Why if it were, then at least one of them would be on this TC that Dalan spoke of.

Maybe one would even attempting inflating his post count by claiming to move a lot of information around...  8)

Hey!  I think all of these things have happened!  Could it be true?!  Let me think.

I don't even see why this Vitriol person even gets a voice here.  I haven't seen her in months.  She seems to have been replaced in our games by a look-alike dopple-gargan that goes by the name 'Mahdia'.

I've had the incarnations of scionist killed countless times, but he seems to always come back.  Raesch, Silvion, and now Gul-shad.  Like the phoenix, he only grows in power with each resurrection.

I doubt if I'll get another chance now that they know that I know that they know that I know, that they know that I know. (or something like that.)

[Aeron Tevesh]

Death to the dictators!!!!!

Fear not my leige, your High Commander is with you!

[Hurley]

I am the most insidious of all.  I don't post, but I'm old.

[Nyrhtlyk the Dark]

Nyrhtlyk is making his way down the halls, towards the dark council chamber. Slipping past the three score adamantium golems, he slips into the secretive chamber. But in his haste, he's dropped a slip of paper, revealing more information on the mysterious, Thardferrian Illuminati.

****************************

Liriel, aka Agent M.

A disciple of DM Myth, who survived simply because she was an elf sympathizer and not an actual elf. In the convening years, she's become known as the nefarious, agent M, hosting Thardferr rooms for games so that the illuminati can watch the happenings of dozens, if not hundreds of unsuspecting gamers. With a veritable hard drive of illicit information concerning the comings and goings of hundreds, her files are just one of the many ways the illuminati keep tabs upon Thardferr.

[Liriel]

Bah!  It's just a plot by the Nefarious Nyrhtlyk to throw suspicion on the innocent and turn us all against each other.  I'm innocent, I tell you!

[Swaniff]

Swaniff walks around as if in a trance...."must submit to the inner circle.....must not let Horace get away..."

hahaha.....now this IS entertaining if not a little off the wall
