This is just blatant AI, I don’t trust machines to provide any amount of luck.

Citizens of Torn,

Most of you may not know who I am, or even care, but I am sure many of you have had experiences with the character known as 'Bumbi'.

Months ago when I first entered this fine city, I joined a faction hoping to be guided toward success. When I first joined, this faction was headed by an individual known as Haeven but suddenly, nearly a month after I joined, Bumbi purchased the faction and my experience was turned on its head. 

Life under the rule of Bumbi was hard, constant wars that my newbie self was poorly equipped for, a large chunk of faction profits being skimmed in order to repay their sizable debts, and a distinct lack of xanax in the armory. Many of you only experience Bumbi and their antics in the form of forum posts, but let me tell you, being up close is a whole different beast. The copious amounts of drugs that they have taken have obviously scrambled their brain as much of their talk consisted of rants directed toward whichever innocent citizen of Torn had caught their ire that day, many times followed up by one of their self recorded 'Diss-tracks'. Their actions frequently dragged the rest of our faction into petty squabbles leading to our members being hunted down like fawns. 

Despite all of this I stuck with the faction as I have a loyal spirit and while I didn't choose them they were my faction leader. However one day Bumbi's fickle swiss cheese brain decided that the faction was no longer entertaining to them and sold us away, just like that the faction fractured, many of those I had grown to like began splitting off and going their separate ways all because that disturbed deer became bored with us. 

You may think that this is where the story ends but no, like I said I have a loyal spirit and decided to follow Bumbi, despite their pitfalls, to their next faction. But once again Bumbi could not resist antagonizing the capricious souls of this city and found themself with another target on their back. They fled this new faction to hideout with Monarch, a turn I never expected.

My heart, mind, and soul have been damaged by this experience and I am unsure if I have the will to go on. I have decided to open up a Bazaar in the city center and all of the proceeds will go to mending my broken self. Pearl's Pondiferous Piazza offers a perfectly picked potpourri of prizes and possessions.  Any other donations toward my wellbeing are also welcome.

I thank you, understanding residents of this magnificent city, for your kindness and your time.

That Online Safety Act is some 1984 shit, hope that it gets repealed soon. I’d say I’m glad I don’t have to deal with bullshit like that as a proud American, but a patchwork of states have passed similar laws for porn that have effectively banned it since most sites don’t want to deal with all of the regulations.

You already know you’re on that list Bumbi ;)

This is just blatant AI, I don’t trust machines to provide any amount of luck.

While these other ungrateful citizens may not appreciate this I commend the effort. Most of the others don’t seem to realize that you just posted the the outcomes of each point you spent. Maybe next time a link to a Google doc or something will result in less ignorant “ain’t reading all that” comments.

This could be useful if anyone is out there compiling all the outcomes.

Bumbi’s posts in this thread have had a disturbing lack of teal text, are we sure someone didn’t already hunt them down and are puppeting their lifeless body?

The fragile denizens of this city simply don't understand how much quieter it would be without these quality shitposts.

(purple is the better text color btw, fight me)

How could I be copying their style when I use magnificent light purple text while Bumbi uses that horrid minty green? 

There's much better ways to gain popularity than associating myself with Bumbi.

While Bumbi may owe me due to the physical and emotional trauma I have been put through as a result of their actions, I have not received a single penny for this post.
