I don't know how many times I have done this. I go through these phases where I get super busy and distracted and keep going "yeah I should check back here" but then "oh shiny nickle" moments happen.
I think I will probably spend time re-reading the comic and get myself up to speed.
It's amazing to see how far things have come and who is still here from "back in the day". This is a place I will never forget that's for sure.

Well welcome back again! (again)
I'm out of loose confetti right now, so take some of these cascarones in case you need to fend off anybody with eggshell confetti grenades. ^.=.^

*Wheels in a cart of plushies protected by a portable-hole-proof force field* Welcome back to the forum! As a welcome gift, I offer you an Altermeta Plushie! You can choose from CC, Jo, Boo, Pirate!T-Square and Agnes, and Rum-Wench!Sasha. Enjoy!
-
*The mad hugger gives you a hug* then almost collides with the pastry cart while leaving.
Secretly equips Boo plushies with Lojack device.

*appears out of thin air with an electric crackle*
Hello.
*presents pencil sketch*
And welcome back!
Oh uh, there's something on your back...
-
*hands over a welcome back balloon*
I hear if you collect enough of these you can levitate ;)
Welcome back, good to see you :D
-
Welcome back to this corner of the internet!
Be warned: Any food left unattended will be devoured by shadowy forum lurkers.
*returns to the shadows stealing Boo plushies*

You must have handed me at least a dozen of those things over the years XD!
This place has never failed to make me feel welcome.
-
And a +1 for persistence. ;)
-
I think back in the day constitutes something that happened, at the most recent, in the 80s... which Altermeta is... my point ceases to make sense even to me. Welcome back, I miss seeing that funky avatar pop up.

*walks up to Geradex and hands him a bag of popcorn*
That's a bag of welcome popcorn, and it the latest model! I've been working with Acme to come up with a bottomless popcorn bag, and we succeeded! Once you reach the first bag bottom, you can reach in further and pull out whatever kind of freshly popped popcorn you want. Just be careful. It'll be hot! I'm thinking of calling this a Popcornicopia Of Plenty. :)
Also, be warned. Intro threads can be hotbeds for mayhem.
Usually started by me. :)
Now then, where did the plushie cart go?
-
Oh, it's over there covered in mist...
-
Welcome back!
*Offers Geradex some welcome pastry of his choice*
Gives +2 to weight, so you might as well just stay (instead of flying away with all those balloons).
-
Oh, it's over there covered in mist...
*gasp* Oh, Noes! My force-field generator's malfunctioning! We need to get those plushies out of there fast before they're crushed! Somebody HELP!
-
*crashes through the ceiling on something made of 2x4s and model rocket engines*
Watch ooooouuuuuu- *KTCHSSSSHHHH*
*the fall is cushioned by force field and plushies*
-
*the misty force field flickers momentarily, trapping Jchan among the plushies and slowly closes in on him.*
Lisbon! Hurry! I need one of your Portable Holes!
-
No need, I'll handle this one.
*Pulls up sleeve revealing a sleek purple armband*
Here goes!
*uses armband to teleport inside field*
Gotcha! Now let's make this quick, this prototype can only jump twice a charge.
*teleports out with Jchan before field shrinks and dissapears*
Close one. Though I couldn't save the other half of whatever you were riding...
*notices armband about to catch fire*
Gah! Medic!
-
*walks up behind Meep and douses his arm with fire suppressant foam*
Um, Rich, didn't you say the force field was portable hole proof?
-
No one ever said it was makeshift-aeroship-going-down-in-flames...-proof...
*dusts himself off*
Ah well, better get on making a better -and safer- prototype.

*plushie cart reduced to a pile of twisted metal and loose fluff*
NOOOOOOOO! My PLUSHIES! *cries*
*walks up behind Meep and douses his arm with fire suppressant foam*
Um, Rich, didn't you say the force field was portable hole proof?
When it's malfunctioning like that, it's only Portable-Hole Resistant. I would have been able to reach through and rescue the plushies and Jchan. But when Meep teleported in, he further destabilized the field, accelerating the collapse.

*picks up an ashen plushie from the wreckage and gives it to Rich*
Hey, I did notice a portal leading somewhere while I was in the field... It had 'Dreaker' written on it in sharpie...
*begins repairing armband*

Perhaps something with propellers this time? Propellers are awfully cool
-
Ooh yeah propellers are very cool, if cumbersome. Maybe I should give the next one wheels and just propeller along the ground...

*pushes a new cart oner to Rich*
It doesn't have a force field, but I think it can hold plushies...

I'll begin modifications as soon as I figure out what went wrong.

Maybe your spark plugs were bad..?
-

Spark plugs? We're talking about a force-field generator here, not an internal combustion engine!
Now that you mention it, though, the flow regulator seems to have combusted internally.
-
So then an enhanced cooling system of some kind on the next model?
-
So then an enhanced cooling system of some kind on the next model?
Yes. And I'll rig the regulator to be un-bypassable; if the regulator fails, the entire system automatically shuts off.
-
Hmm it seems that your design only runs off of a 0.896 KW power supply...
Are you sure that's enough to project a field?
-
Oh, that's plenty. But, now that you mention it, it would be less failure-prone if I bumped it up to a full kw. Anything more than that would be wasteful.
-
You could add blinky lights and a stereo to use any excess power...
I am not off topic: Welcome Back!
-
It needs one of those la cucaracha horns too. For... you know
-
*roles out a separate cart loaded with stereo and lighting equipment*
When I'm done here this thing'll will kuvRAWK!!! \m/O_O\m/
-
Oy, Vey.
-
Lol

La Kuv-a-rahk-a, La Kuv-a-rahk-a... La-la La-la La-la La!

*pulls out a laptop with Virtual DJ running*
Let's do this! XD

I have no idea what happened here XD!
Some things never change!

*drops a 1-ton anvil on Dreaker* You were saying?
-
*drops a portable hole over Dreaker (dammit)* watch that first step! I hear it's quite a drop. :)

*watches as the Anvil falls through the portable hole which then passes through Dreaker and lands under his feet, causing him to fall in after the anvil*

*shrugs and walks off*

He's going to have us bouncing off the walls in the rubber room before you can say Jack Robinson

Jack Robinson.

I knew you were going to say that.

It looks to me like you set yourself up...

I assumed Dreaker would make the next post
-
Let's not forget our original mission in this thread... Welcome back!
-
You need more then mere anvils to deal with me.

I did not.

In my clients' defense the purpose of the topic was accomplished before silliness ensued.
