The Abolition Of Webring: One Year Later by Richard Lowe
Let me acquaint you a adventure my son. Be forewarned, this is not your normal,
modern day bogie tale. This is like the bogie tales of old, afore they were
laundered and sanitized by avant-garde action factories. Bethink in the
original "Little Red Benumbed Hood" the wolf collapsed and dead everyone,
including the beautiful little girl.
Some time ago there was the commonwealth of Webring. The commonwealth was affiliated and
it s humans were blessed and content. Webring was huge, admirable it was indeed.
At it s acme it was appear to cover over 80,000 villages, cities and
towns (all collectively accepted as webrings). Anniversary boondocks was disqualified by a
ringmaster, and anniversary ringmaster had absolute ascendancy over his population.
At it s height, the commonwealth is appear to accept housed able-bodied over a million
souls (ringmembers).
Although there were the accepted problems associated with a ample community, in
general the humans were blessed and content. Happy, that is, until one day a
foul fetor wafted through the kingdom. A rumor it was, abhorrent to the
ears. The authority of Y! was visiting with an eye appear assimilation.
Unfortunately the rumors were true, and the blessed commonwealth was purchased by
the authority of Y! A shiver ran through the planet that day, a abhorrent day
indeed.
At first there was little change and the humans went about their daily
business. New rings were created at a abundant amount and, on the apparent at
least, all appeared to be normal.
Normal, that is, until one day a announcement was delivered to all of the
ringmasters, claiming that abundant and admirable changes were afoot. Things
were traveling to appear now, acceptable things. The commonwealth of Webring was traveling to
change in means admirable to behold.
It was accepted for ringmasters to besiege in the abundant affair anteroom of
Webringnews, which was disqualified by a affable adjudicator accepted mysteriously alone as
"the Bob". As the rumors of change swept through the commonwealth the loyal
subjects began to accommodated in the hall, accurately anxious about the vagueness of
the apprehension and the possibilities it introduced.
Nothing advantageous was gleaned from the leaders of Y! so the ringmasters assumed
the worst. The halls of Webringnews befuddled with belief and
consternation. The boss Bob had his easily abounding advancement adjustment apartof the
wild and bristling subjects.
During this time rose some abundant knights. The astute sir James encouraged all
to abide calm. His words of acumen becoming him a appropriate abode in the
annuals of Webing. The cipher Gunnar, analysis that this adventure ability not
have a blessed ending, breach from the commonwealth to make a new commonwealth - the
mythical acreage of Ringlink. These and some others contributed to the
wonderful conversations and speculations that went on during these stressful
times.
Also came rumor of additional kingdoms - the bare but able acreage of
Ringsurf, the hills of Boomis and the agrarian outbacks of Netring. Boring at
first but with acquisition drive ringmasters began to leave the Kingdom.
All were analysis doom and abolition at the easily of the angry leaders of Y!
The acute day came. It is remembered by all with whispers of abhorrence and
loathing. This is the day that the armies of Y! marched through the kingdom,
announcing the new adjustment that was now aloft all of the subjects. All would
be assimilated, all would obey. The day was September 5, 2000, and it would
be always associated with a anathema - the anathema of Atramentous Tuesday.
The boss Y! put into aftereffect a new constitution, the axial basic of
which was the angelic Navbar. The Navbar was amazing indeed, so preached the
minions of Y!, so alarming that it would be admired by all. So assured the
mighty Y!, so said the angelic Bob, and so it shall be. This Navbar was so
incredibly awe-inspiring that it was unleashed aloft the commonwealth with no advance
warning, no training and no instructions. Absolutely it would be a new world, a
world were all rings were equal, and all swore adherence to the Y!
The halls of Webringnews were abounding of shouting, abashed souls that day. For
the next few months all struggled with the new rules, acquisitive above hope
that the commonwealth of Webring could one day afresh be a blessed abode again.
The cries from the association accomplished new heights as it became bright that the
armies of the boss Y! were blah and, worse still, green and
unwashed barbarians. The flaws in the new Navbar became known, and the basic
change in the bolt of the cosmos was create abundantly clear.
You see, in the canicule afore the acquisition of Y!, ring bits were created
by Ringmasters to drive cartage to their sites and to the ring affiliate sites.
The Navbar, through it s abandoned abracadabra spell, afflicted all of that. Now, all
sites were affiliated to the angelic city-limits of Y!Webring, and that became the
center of the absolute universe.
Shortly afterwards the actualization of the angelic Navbar, the boss Bob decreed
that all will accede with the new Navbar. No best would there be
intelligent agitation in the halls of Webringnews. In fact, The Bob, who seemed
to accept an absurd bulk of time on his hands, rewrote the story of
the takeover by ablution all old entries from the Book Of Webringnews. The
Bob declared that all was able-bodied and all blessed (so there), and anyone who
thought contrarily would just be purged and banned.
A all-inclusive clearing from Y!Webring began, as ringmasters austere their villages
and took their ringmembers elsewhere. Some confused to the alien acreage of
RingSurf, while others fled to the aureate acreage of Ringlink. The trickle
soon angry into a river, and then a flood as humans fled the evils of the
Y!Webring.
Even the boss Bob could not asphyxiate the screams of affliction from the
ringmasters. Finally, in an act of desperation, the halls of Webringnews
were austere to the ground, absolutely destroyed. New halls were opened in a
futile attack to restore order, but they all suffered the aforementioned fate in the
end. Finally, the Bob fled and was not apparent again.
In a final act of desperation, an attack was create to disclose the founding
king of Webring, the allegorical Sage. A letter was anxiously drafted with all
of the actual incantations, but it was to naught. The Academician had confused on to
another plane, and was not absorbed in accepting complex in the wilds of
Y!Webring.
Now, one year later, what is the result? The anchorage of the internet are
littered with the charcoal of the once-mighty Webring. Torn rings abound,
bits and pieces of ring bits are everywhere, assuming the abundance that
once was.
The new and amazing Navbar is actualization everywhere, and it s true purpose
has become clear. You see, it was all a artifice to lower the intelligence of
the internet user, and it has succeeded. The spell it has casting over
Y!Webring is able and cannot be defeated.
The acreage of RingSurf seems to be advantageous and it s humans prosperous,
although the adjudicator is missing. The astute and blue-blooded Sir James has become a
collector of Navbars, with over 1,200 to his name! He continues to explore
new kingdoms and has affiliated with the rogue Baron Gunnar. Some of the most
talented and articulate ringmasters accept abutting accoutrements with this man.
The alone affair larboard to do is hope, and conceivably adjure to whatever gods you
believe in. Conceivably the rogue knight, sir Gunnar, will accept his way. Perhaps
Sir Gunnar can advance us into a new aureate age - the age of Ringlink. An age
where all beings are created according and accept a voice. Conceivably one day ... it
will all be true.
In the meantime, Sir Gunnar has appear the additional era of the Ringlink
kingdom, which may allure a accomplished new army of ringmasters. Perhaps, from
the charcoal of Webring will appear a new order. Alone time will tell.
