Well, there's a movie out about the creation of Facebook, called "The Social Network" based on a book called "Accidental Billionaires". What if, instead of a story particularly about users of this site, or of the site as a city, how about a bit of realistic fiction about the creation of Runouw.com? Of course, many of the things can be overly dramatic, but I think it might not be a bad idea.


Perhaps not realistic fiction, because it would be limited characters as well as the fact that well... Runouw made it and that was it. But I do like the idea of having the story before Runouw.com was made, or perhaps the beginning of it.

Also, I had a 4chan period as well. Still kinda do. >_>

That be cool an' all, but you then have limitations on the characters as many here now weren't there at the beginning.

I do realized that, but the reason why I said "Realistic Fiction" is that new characters could be added; more drama could ensue. It could be about the legal troubles undergone through creating the site, friends made and enemies gained, a rags to mild riches sort of tale about one developer's climb to the top and eventual corruption.

Yeah, I was thinking, we didn't actually have to have those who were only there back in the distant past. It's a fictional work, so anything goes.

Times have changed,
and we've often rewound the clock
since the Puritans got a shock,
when they landed on Plymouth Rock.
If today,
any shock they should try to stem,
'stead of landing on Plymouth Rock,
Plymouth Rock would land on them!

In olden days a glimpse of stocking
was looked on as something shocking,
but now God knows,
anything goes!
Good authors too who once knew better words
now only use four-letter words
writing prose,
anything goes!

If driving fast cars you like,
if low bars you like,
if old hymns you like,
If bare limbs you like,
if Mae West you like,
or me undressed you like,
why nobody will oppose.
When every night the set that's smart is
intruding in nudist parties in studios,
anything goes!

When Missus Ned Mclean (God bless her)
can get Russian Reds to 'Yes' her,
then I suppose
anything goes!
When Rock-a-fellas still can hoard enough
money to let Max Gordon
produce his shows,
anything goes!

The world has gone mad today,
and good's bad today,
and black's white today,
and day's night today,
and that gent today
you gave a cent today
once had several chateaux.

When folks who still can ride in jitneys
find out Vanderbilts and Whitneys
Lack baby Clo'es,
Anything goes!

When Sem Goldwyn can with great conviction
instruct Anna Sten in diction,
then Anna shows,
Anything goes!

When you hear that Lady Mendl standing up
now does a handspring landing up --
on her toes
Anything goes!

Just think of those shocks you've got
and those knocks you've got
and those blues you've got
from those news you've got
and those pains you've got
(If any brains you've got)
from those little radios.

So Missus R., with all her trimmin's,
can broadcast a bed from Simmons
cause Frank, who knows
anything goes!



DERP.

Alright, so basically the story is set to take place before Runouw.com was made? Maybe it could tell of our conflicting lives outside of Runouw.com, Runouw included, and eventually explain the creation of the website?

I like it, actually. If popular vote decides, we'll go into more detail with this.

Methinks this needs better phrasing. From what I see, you're saying that we all have office jobs and we have conflicts with tax and our spouses. :awe:

But I think I get it.




Oh, and we need to have some awesome place where everyone is "born" , and lives 'til they want to move to other "places" (websites). I do think that with this, we need to make it so that the word website is not used to describe a place. Real incarnation and whatnot. :D

Sounds good. We do need to go into more detail with how this is gonna work though.

That can be implemented somewhere somehow...

Screw this, we start off with terrorists and Shadowsquid in some tale and then we zip to Runouw where there's a war between sites. People are planning and stuff, when some random guy comes in telling of ..something. Some evil warlord or something is gathering sites and is offering Runouw a chance to become one with a superpower. Citizens and whatnot disagree, but Runouw says yes.






Then I don't know what happens. :o.o:
