question about the 'harpies'

[enfield]

Apparently there is a growing brood of harpies on tip.it. Are they avians? what do they do exactly? i just never could understand what they were all chirruping on about.

 

explanation appreciated - thanks! :).

[Vezon Dash]

They are basically just trolls. They seem to have a nesting place in /BS/ -> ISE though.

Harpies are basically a group of people who started in Zaap1's blog 'It's Super Effective'.

[Randox]

I don't generally venture into blogscape, so forgive me if I am out of the loop...

 

We have flocks of female users attacking the males in blogscape?

Yes.

Yes.

Pretty much.

[Randox]

Interesting. I didn't think we had enough female users to form a flock in the first place :P

[enfield]

hmm okay.

 

The art of flight is throwing yourself at the ground and missing. Harpies have to aim at the moon to achieve this<-- aww.

[Kimberly]

We have flocks of female users attacking the males in blogscape?

 

All the collective males in Blogscape only wish that was true.

[Nexaduro]

Vezon linked me here.

 

Harpies are filthy and evil. APOCALYPTICALLY SO :unsure:

There are male harpies?

 

 

 

 

@Nex

 

It was a suggestion from someone else.

[RpgGamer]

OT men, rise!

 

We must counter this feminine harpie attack on our home soil of OffTopic. Push them back to the blogscape!

 

HEAVE!

[Ouchy]

I don't know what they hell is going on.

[Nexaduro]

Neither do the Harpies, I'm sure.

[Alg]

Neither do the Harpies, I'm sure.

We're just as confused as everyone else, I think.

[stevepole]

I don't know what they hell is going on.

 

Ditto.

[Lose No Hope]

What's going on here?

[Hedgehog]

What's going on here?

Enfield did not know what the harpies were so he made a thread, and now everyone else who doesn't know what a harpie is is confused as well. Now some harpies are confused cuz harpies have brains the size of walnuts.

[Sir_Squab]

Vezon linked me here.

 

Harpies are filthy and evil. APOCALYPTICALLY SO :unsure:

 

This.

 

And no, us harpies don't know what's going on, but we do it anyways.

[Lose No Hope]

That clears it up slightly, hedge.

 

They are basically just trolls. They seem to have a nesting place in /BS/ -> ISE though.

You are in the harpy nest but don't associate yourself with us? Blasphemy.

What they lack in brains they make up for elsewhere.

 

 

 

@ LTK

 

When did I ever say that I don't associate with the Harpies?

[Hedgehog]

You said they, not we.

[enfield]

well i did vaguely know about what they were all about. but i thought it would be fun for people to explain it to me. i wasn't sure it would generate so much controversy - we better not have a harpy flapping fight or however you birds settle your disputes in here though :ohnoes:.

 

 

^ that was a salient observation. but lokie tells me harpies are generally being more discreet about their avian identities. maybe that's why.

[Vezon Dash]

We aren't necessary birds..... Although I do wonder why you thought that this wouldn't honestly draw attention to us harpies. After all, just because the nest is in ISE doesn't mean that we don't have other outposts and other forms of communication.
