[ This little forum post comes well after he's had his fun at the party, but it does come, and it's a good thing the forums are text because if people could hear how gleeful he was... ]

Hello all!

I am afraid I must admit to something terrible! I may have found an incredibly deadly debuff that simply did not fall off of me when I returned to the Root Town. It would seem it affects NPCs as well as players, but the NPCs simply would not die and reset themselves!

Oopsie.

Do you think this counts as a bug or a feature? Should I report it? I took it to a few more places in town to make certain of what I was seeing, of course! Could anyone confirm this is what they were seeing, too? (:

[ Yeah, yeah, he made a point to spread that chaos before admitting what happened. He's just being a good beta tester, though, right? Right! ]

YEAH?!
YOU SHOULD PROBABLY REPORT IT
oh my god
pls quarantine yourself

[trollophoroi]

REALLY????

But wherever would I quarantine myself? There's only one town and I'm right in the middle of it!

[dissimulative]

then just log out
maybe forever

[Levi reads this.

Looks at the username again.

Stares into the middle distance for a good minute...]

Of course you decided to spread it around before saying anything.

How did you even manage to pull this off in like three hours??

[trollophoroi]

But I want to be here for all the fun! It's the first day of the beta!

Shall I simply stand very far away from everyone else instead? I think that might work!

[trollophoroi]

[ Oho, what's this? ]

IT'S LEVI-CHAAAAN hello levi-chan, how have you been??? (:

Ah, but do not ask me how! I simply have a talent for this! Almost as if the bugs are attracted to me. No doubt the developers will find that quite helpful!

[dissimulative]

i dont think you can stop npcs from walking around the town like nothing is happening
when theres something clearly happening!!!!!
if you log out maybe they can compensate you

[ No, they won't. ]

I believe I have heard about something similar happening in another game before, but I think the transmission vector was pets and minions in that one. As well as it sourcing from a lategame raid?

Beta test or not, I am surprised you managed to find something like that in the starting areas.

[trollophoroi]

Oh, but I had already been all over town before realizing what was happening, so it isn't as though they can get any more infected than they already are!

I think I will remain online in that case. There's just nothing for it, right?

[ Which is utter bullshit since he must have picked up the debuff repeatedly after each death to spread it that far. ]

[dissimulative]

omg youre stupid
youre stupid arent you
jeeeeeez

[trollophoroi]

Is that so? How interesting! You would think they would have tested for that before letting us loose, in that case!

I guess I'm just very unlucky like that but it's a good thing I found it early, right?

[trollophoroi]

Now you're just making me feel bad about it! :( It isn't like I went looking for stuff like this, you know!

[ narrator: that was exactly what he did ]

HEAD ADMIN

[ Wise words from Zelkova:

"Give it a try, but be careful: the head admin is kind of a grump... but you didn't hear that from me, hehe!"

The following is a comment to the forums by the Head Admin. ]

Hello, fandaniel.

We are currently looking into the situation that was never reported to us. Next time, please report the issue instead of being a carrier of virtual disease. I expected better from beta testers that CC Corp has invited. Please halt your gaming activity until a full investigation has been carried out.

Thank you.

[trollophoroi]

Such an impersonal response! I was only asking if anyone else thought it was a bug. No need to become so serious about it.

Do you still wish for me to file an official report or would that be a waste of my time now?

[ Should he log out? Yes, he should. Does he? Not yet. His avatar is still logged in even as he's tabbed out and poking about the forums. ]

[horologia]

[ there's some delay, looks like she's checking out the other replies to his forum thread but- ]

Very unlucky is one way to phrase it if you weren't actually looking for it.

Was it from the wood or dark areas?

[trollophoroi]

I'm not sure which area it was. I haven't been keeping track of the ones I've gone exploring in, unfortunately!

[ aka he isn't sharing which, rip to the devs. ]

HEAD ADMIN

[cccorp]

Of course it would be a bug, you dipshit.

[ Wow, head admin is annoyed. Either way, they won't reply to any further comments.

Time is ticking... ]

[horologia]

And I suppose that likewise, the keywords used are too difficult for you to recall.

How long until he gets the game's first ban?

[trollophoroi]

I am afraid so. They've slipped my mind!

I've been very keen on running areas, so I've been to quite a few already.

[trollophoroi]

Dear me, I am beginning to see why Zelkova is the one out there greeting everyone.

[ But as the mysterious head admin has no plans on replying again, Fandaniel, too, leaves it there. ]

[trollophoroi]

Why don't we count down together? I seem to still be here~

[dissimulative]

i bet you dont feel bad at all

[threatmewted]

For now. Looks like the head admin isn't so happy. Fingers crossed for you bestie 🤞

[trollophoroi]

No, no, I am truly beside myself with despair. The first day of the beta and someone on the internet thinks I'm stupid! Whatever shall I do?
