[8.3.3] We have a situation west of the Mercer Canal - Recursion - 10/19/07

Translation: If bluepills see something we don't want them to see, we will overwrite them or kill them - it's for their protection.

Didn't you see the series of indoctrination videos?

Okay, Toastys, how are you going to explain *that* little mess with the robots running around, if some Blues happened to see what went down...?

We took care of it swiftly and efficiently, therfore no bluepills were harmed or even were aware of the situation.

Hee... I suppose if someone *had* seen something they shouldn't, you could always cover it up with a bit in the Sentinel about it being a marketing stunt to promote a new video-game/movie/anime/etc.
Since the disturbance took place in an industrial area after hours there were no bluepills in the area because they had already been releaved of thier working posts for the day. Had this happend during human working hours, the situation might have been slightly more difficult to handle, in which case some... rewritting of software would be needed. However we were fortunate with the timeing of the ordeal and had the mess cleaned up before the first human shift started that morning.

Bolding mine. Heh.... typical of the Toasters to come up with a boring solution to a problem, instead of being... creative about it. This is why I am not a Machinist: the folks working for the Toasters might be interesting, but the management is duller than... I dunno, doorknobs. :: Laughs::

I think that rewriteing software is needed.

This event was pretty fun. It's nice when you don't have to worry about how much experience points you're getting. ^-^

ya rly. Notice how the subjects at hand does not seem effected by what is going on around them. These are not bluepills, they are randomly assigned drones to make the city feel more alive in areas where there is little activity.

((in all honesty you can all suckit for trying to insult someone who was only trying to RP a little, I forgot why I stay away from these boards until the jackels showed up))

**Zerotolerance**

I'm glad to see Agent Gray is organized and efficient on at least one instance.

(( Srsly, I don't think you should be so hard on imax. If bluepills were really ever a major concern/factor for the storyline, it would be mentioned in the LE character posts here on these boards. Blue pills are only ever really in danger when there's specific ones mentioned in LE threads. Cut imax some slack; he came up with a reasonable RP way of explaining the situa-- Aww, screw it. I've said enough. I'll stay out of it. ))

(( Good work, Recursion. ))

Taking things to the extremes again Preacher?
I think we'd be able to convince them to believe something that they would think is more plausible, like the filming of a new movie.
I mean what would they really think, killer robots on the loose in an age where robots were barely wireless let alone walking on two legs and sporting weaponry, or that they were just props in a movie in which the 'lucky' bluepill happened to get inadvertently included as an extra?
Here's some cash well done. A few weeks later a small advertisement in the Sentinel suggesting that the film had been scrapped...

Overwriting is a last resort, probably barely used due to possible problems with results.
The suggestion of killing bluepills for witnessing an event that, with a bit of imagination, can be explained away is just your usual propaganda and would be a waste of Machine resources.

Translation: lying is easiest and should be tried first, but if deceit isn't adequate, we will resort to overwriting and killing.

so remember, Machine rules for dealing with Bluepills who won't be controlled:

1) LIE
2) OVERWRITE
3) KILL

The general populace has to be protected.

Heh, believe what you want to believe, Preacher. Twist my words into your propaganda as you so skillfully do. Pick out the words and relay them on how you see fit. Shame that you quoted my post that you are picking apart like old Earth Buzzard, as it clearly states that overwriting may be used as a last resort.

The killing suggestion is simply laughable. I will try to explain on a level that you could understand if it wasn't for your desperation to believe in what you want.

If the Machines have to overwrite a bluepill, after all avenues of allowing him or her to believe in something they are more comfortable in believing, it does not mean their entire mind, just the memories of the event, thus killing is entirely unnecessary, why should we want to kill someone that's been convinced or who's memories have been replaced? It is a complete and total waste of resources.

Of course I don't expect you to believe me, I don't even expect you to entertain the idea. I fully expect you to yet again pick out and twist my words to make it seem to yourself and others who stop and listen you your jaundiced speeches from atop your soapbox, you own self-reinforcing mendacity that the Machines are single minded killers who unable and unwilling to live alongside Humankind in peace.

Some may even believe you, instantly dismissing the fact that Humans have been working, untainted and unmodified, with the Machines since the truce for the benefit of Mankind.

I shall like to gain any records of your sermons, Preacher, so that when I have some time spare, I shall at least be amused by them. Entertaining self deluded omniscience at its very finest.

An excellent operation. The merovingian released the Taskmaster and we cleaned him up, Now the question rises, Why did the Merovingian release him, was it a deal, Information for freedom, was it a distraction, Keep the machines busy bye sending out a few dozen taskmasters....Oh well it was how you say...."Interesting non the less"

It's so very sad that you continue to try to vindicate the the despots, the killers and the liars. The blood on the floors of Old Zion proves your failed morality. So many have been killed because they would not be lied to, overwritten or controlled and you say it's laughable. You make yourself out to be completely and irrevocably insane by continuing to support conclusions which are denied by centuries of hard evidence. For 650 years, from the destruction of New York City until Neo showed us the way, every human who would not be controlled was killed. Their bones accuse you from the ashes of six destroyed cities.
