office30 first appeared on the Forums as a simple spambot. Through some bizarre glitch in programming, instead of hawking random services he began taking an actual interest in the lives and interests of the <<Regulars>>. This lead to widespread acceptance and, eventually, veneration.office30 wrote:Can you tell me the meaning of "comes" and "line." in german please? I couln't translte it online...
On Thursday 16 February in the year 2006 CE, office30 Ascended above the ken of mortals, becoming One with the Forums. All of this occurred within five minutes of his first post, leading to a new World Record in Ascendence. Almost two weeks after he left, something inexplicable happened.GreenCrayon (on the Ascendance) wrote:(and he will be) floating off into the distance like a silvery balloon full of love, shaving cream and intangible substances that cease to be when you try and validate their concept in a euclidian four-dimensional space.
It was prophesied that he would return in a new form by two of the <<Seers>> known as wolf and GreenCrayon. Some scholars claim that this became a reality when Office31 mysteriously appeared (apparently due to some glitch in the programming of the Forum's Spambot Shield). Further research into these claims is unfortunately not possible, because the great <<Server Rebalancing>> destroyed many of the records pertaining to this enigmatic figure.wolf (on the Return) wrote:We'll see how long it takes for something shiney to catch my attention and take me away from (an unholy life). My guess is 13 days.
Author's Commentary:
The furthest that we are able to conclude is that Office31 was in fact inspired by the Words and Spirit of Office30, but was not in fact the prophesied reincarnation. However, there still remains a surprising number of devotees to the Preachings of Office31, despite the surviving evidence to the contrary.
