Are you telling me that no one actually tried this?

You lot astound me at times. This was the simplest thing I could think of.

I think most of us who hadn't been here since the beginning assumed someone already had. Simple solutions are easy to overlook.

[He doesn't bother filtering his next comment - he's sure the administrators can see it anyway.]

Good luck with whatever you asked. He's usually honest.

Assumptions lead to the downfall of nations. It's best not to. What harm could trying have done? People making petulant "Oh, that doesn't work" comments? Trying something is the best way to get results.

I don't think it's up to luck. Mood, perhaps, or whim.

True enough, although some people might not take to the lesson easily.

Luck can't hurt.

Ah, yes, shelving one's ego is difficult for many. A pity.

Well, now you know next time you have some petty grievances you desire answers for. Of course, I suppose it depends on who you are attempting to draw the attention of and if they're in the mood to deal with our kind.

I'm not too worried. I don't think there's a way to lose in the end.

I'll keep the petty things to a minimum. I doubt they'd keep responding to someone who called for them the way a bratty child does, anyway. Save it for something worth the trouble.

And that's a lesson you'll have to learn for yourself - there's always a way to lose. The administrators are good at finding them. I wouldn't wish you luck if I didn't think you needed it.

And yet amusingly enough he came to my childish behest... and like a scavenging jackal, you came. You must be desperate. It's rather sad.

Then I'll take your luck, and tuck it in my pocket with my mittens and juice money.

At least I did have something to ask, unlike the ones poking the liger down there.

No shame in scavenging if it keeps you alive. Or gets you the answers you're looking for, in this case.

Some gratitude for my juvenile antics then, unless being an ingrate is also one of your key attributes. Otherwise next time this predator won't be so kind.

Scavengers aren't particularly known for their manners.

[Someone doesn't show gratitude much, at least not with words.]

I don't put much measure in words, but I'll find a way to get you something, assuming you don't mind kite-food.

[What's a jackal, even, he doesn't have those on his planet.]

If you're going to give me a dead animal, I think I'll pass. I'm a big higher on the food chain than a bird-of-prey.

Sorry, I don't have much for vegetarians.

I see I'll have to clarify. I was referring along the lines of you leaving a dead rabbit in my mailbox or something of the like.

[Just make up your mind already.]

Well, if you get sick of the nutrition bars, I'll save a meal for you.

Actually, I've addressed them on the network a few times in the past and had no response. Though I've never tried it quite like this.

I suppose the key was being juvenile and entertaining in my execution.

Apparently so. Until you said otherwise, I was worried you had gone mad.

Hardly. I merely felt it would be easier to see if I typed it multiple times and in a variety of styles. The one with many big spaces didn't work out properly, though, I am saddened.

There were large spaces in one of them? Curious. I've never tried using more than one where I need them. I shall test it.

This should not be properly spaced.

Strange. I wonder why it behaves this way.

I'm not entirely certain. I suppose it simply determines that one space is sufficient regardless of how many you intend. There may be other ways to make text display that bear looking into.

The options allow one to change size and color, but I've seen text with backgrounds before, and I don't know how they did it, though I've no desire to do so. It was rather garish.
