Chapter 294 To The Forums (Part 1)
Fate’s official forum was the largest and the most populated gaming forums with the most content.
Due to the popularity of Fate, millions of players log into the forum on a daily basis, with tens of thousands sotis even millions of threads posted on a daily basis. There were posts about information relevant to several classes, guild recruitnts, players showing off their prowess in-ga, and gossip.
This made the Fate official forum one of the best gaming forums.
The multitude of threads on Fate’s forums will be ranked based on their popularity, and the top-10 thread would be judged, and the best among the ten would receive a considerable amount of monetary reward.
While not many could benefit from these rewards, it did not stop players from trying their luck. One would never know if one’s thread might make it into the top-3.
The most popular thread on this day was posted by a user nad “Just A Passerby”, with the title
It had been three hours since the thread was posted when Tan Polang logged into his account, but there were already more than 200,000 comnts. He was on the forums to look for news about Fleeting Ti, but curiosity drove him to click into the thread.
Despite the quality of Fate’s servers, it still took quite a while before the page could be properly loaded. Tan Polang creased his eyebrows. Dozens of seconds have passed, but he was still unable to see the content of the post.
But the contents of the post loaded just when Tan Polang was almost giving up.
The poster, “Just A Passerby” recounted a story to the users of the forum. It was a story about a fight between two players from opposing continents in the wisteria garden.
“Hey, is the OP talking about who I’m thinking?” a comnt imdiately appeared after the story was posted.
“Hey, the user upstairs, I think you and I are both thinking about the sa people.”
“Replying to the player upstairs, I know who you’re talking about. In fact, I saw them in the wisteria garden this afternoon.”
......
It was followed by the response “......”
And after dozens of similar responses in the thread, so of the players were finally at the limit of their patience, “Co on, can you guys stop that? Who is the OP talking about?”
“Yeah, just tell us! Co on!”
......
“......”
But the players who had long since figured the answer was able to form a mutual understanding and refused to relent.
And the players began looking for the OP, “Just A Passerby”.
“Hey OP, are you going to continue the story?”
“Calling OP! Where are you OP?”
“Quiet, OP is ditating.”
......
And just like that, there was nothing aningful in the first few pages of the comnts until the OP finally showed up. He was genuinely surprised by the sheer number of comnts on his post. It had only been 15 minutes since the thread was made, and the comnts had already exceeded 3 pages (comnts on Fate forums were limited to 100 comnts per page). Just A Passerby imdiately apologised and continued his narration.
He tailed the two players from afar, until they were at a secluded corner of the wisteria garden, and that was when so steamy action that made him blush and his heart flutter happened.
“OP, do you know what you’re talking about!?” comnted a player.
“I wonder what is so shocking, OP!”
“Co on, OP! We need pictures! Screenshots!”
“Pics or it did not happen!”
“Don’t mind , I’m just passing by.”
“Pics or it did not happen!”
......
And Just A Passerby once again appeared after a torrent of comnts by the forum users, with many of them asking for proof and clarification. The OP stated that he was still processing the pictures, and called for the players to remain patient.
The thread imdiately exploded into activity of unprecedented proportions. Even long ti lurkers began to surface to leave comnts on the thread.
“Could the OP be talking about Eastern Continent’s Gongzi You and Western Continent’s Fleeting Ti?”
This set off a chain reaction among the players. Many of them began confirming the sightings of the duo in the wisteria garden. There were even Hunter players in their number who began to describe the amazing moves the duo pulled off during their fight.
So of the female players had also comnted on how romantic it was for the duo to be engaging in a fight under the falling wisteria buds.
Just then, a user with the na “1234567” directed the discussion into another direction.
“Guys, I think we’re missing the point here. Didn’t the OP ntion sothing about so ‘steamy action’? Shouldn’t we be focusing on that instead?”
And with that, the voices asking for the truth and evidence supporting the truth grew louder.
Tan Polang himself was curious as well. Sothing that Fleeting Ti and Sister Ye Ci did that would make a person blush? I wonder what it is! It was at that mont that Tan Polang had forgotten about his original attention in visiting the forum as the passion of gossipping lit up in his heart.
Comnts were flooding into the thread at an unprecedented speed. Tan Polang, who started his journey of gossiping by reading each and every comnt eventually gave up as more comnts were left on the thread. He even resorted to purchasing a one-month subscription on the “View Poster Only” function using Forum Coins and began searching for responses from Just A Passerby.
He finally found the response from Just A Passerby in the 200th page of comnts. The user had uploaded more than 20 pictures, but none of them had anything to do with the thing that would “make soone blush”. They were all pictures of Fleeting Ti and Ye Ci in the wisteria garden. With their hoods removed, the identities of the duo were clear as day.
But these were not what the players wanted, especially when they knew what was to co.
The players continued to call for the OP to release the pictures.
But the OP remained unrelenting as he sent pictures after pictures that had nothing to do with the steamy action that he promised. According to the OP, there were simply too many pictures to edit before they could be released. He finally caved in to the players’ demands to stop editing the pictures and release them raw after more comnts flooded his post.
In actuality, Just A Passerby had simply added so ambience to the pictures he took, but it was all deed unnecessary by the players who were hungering for gossiping materials. What they wanted was the steamy action that the poster had promised.
It did not take long for the pictures of the duo in the secluded corner was uploaded. The cara angle was from that of the OP looking up. There were even blades of grasses that were captured within the screenshot.
Many of the players were dissatisfied, “Hey OP, why are you hiding in a bush so far away?”
“I know right! Why can’t you move closer? And why are you in a prone position”
“I’ll have so closer, unobstructed shots later, but all of them were taken from a prone position” ca the explanation, “You all know that Fleeting Ti and Gongzi You are top-tier Hunters. Their Perception must be very high. I’ll be dead if I’m taking the shots from a different position. I’m lucky to have found a hole in the ground surrounded by grass. Do you think I’ll have the chance of taking these pictures if I got closer?”
The players expressed their regrets at an opportunity lost, but most of them voiced out their understanding of the OP’s position. More requests for the pictures to be released imdiately followed, but the OP expressed his intention to edit the pictures. The players were at the end of their patience. There were even so among their numbers who had begun to doubt the OP.
And at that point, there were already 500 pages worth of comnts left on the thread. Many of the players wished to witness the scene described by the OP.
Tan Polang finally found what he was looking for on the 627th page in the form of 5 screenshots uploaded by the OP.
The duo was in very close proximity with each other in the pictures. The expression on the male Elf’s face was shocking. A smile was on his face as he lifted the female Elves chin up with his right hand. He appeared to be whispering into the female’s ears as her eyes widened in shock.
The five pictures have captured the scene perfectly, as if they were fras of a video.
“They suddenly stopped mid-fight, and Fleeting Ti said sothing to Gongzi You. That was when he started to do sothing... Naughty...” said a comnt left by the OP.
“Ahhhhh!!! What happened next, OP? Co on, you can’t just leave us with a few pics! Do you know how many people you’ll kill by doing that?”
“We need to know what happened next!”
