Morpheus: Hm.
Jormir: Ah, you respond.
*You target [Morpheus] the level 60 Aikido Grandmaster.*
BluePlate: 47 1 -34
Jormir: What are you doing here, if i may ask
KELSTAR: well
TheHostileIntention: Morpheus...
Morpheus: I? Nothing.
Salesman: your continued existance within the simulation is at our discretion
Brommerz77: Hello Morpheus.
Salesman: if you wish to retain it we require a service
Morpheus: A bold claim.
Brommerz77: Yet a truthful one.
Morpheus: Interesting.
Salesman: it would be in your best intrest to comply
SureShot187: Good to see you again Morpheus.
TheHostileIntention: Compliance is necessary.
Jormir: Tell us what your purpose is, in this place, Morpheus
Yasamuu: You know the great thing about the old Morpheus? He had a purpose.
KELSTAR: and why here?
Yasamuu: Thats something you lack, Morpheus.
Morpheus: Did he?
Yasamuu: Of course.
Brommerz77: More so than you do.
TheHostileIntention: He liked to think he did, it's what the old dear told him.
*Zion Sentry was just killed by Yasamuu.*
Yasamuu: Finding neo.
Yasamuu: Retrieving his remains.
*You target [Morpheus] the level 60 Aikido Grandmaster.*
*[Morpheus] is hostile.*
Morpheus: If compliance is necessary, then it will occur.
Yasamuu: He had purpose, and that is something you remain without.
Systematica: Halt!
Salesman: dont you want your perpose back?
Jormir: Where do you think your going Morpheus?
Morpheus: Ah, but after he had found the One?
Yasamuu: After he had found the one, it was to stop the war.
TheHostileIntention: His purpose was to end.
Systematica: Destroy the Sentry!
Morpheus: And after he had stopped the war?
Yasamuu: Recovering Neos remains.
*Zion Sentry was just killed by disbarr.*
SureShot187: That WAS your only purpose Morpheus ... not locating Neo's remains.
Salesman: the war continues however
SureShot187: You found the One
Salesman: but you have a chance to help end it
Yasamuu: The point is, you have no purpose right now.
*You target [Morpheus] the level 60 Aikido Grandmaster.*
*[Morpheus] is hostile.*
Morpheus: No?
Yasamuu: We can give you one.
PanicAggression: You tell us.
Morpheus: Since you have sought me out, I would say that you should tell me yours.
Salesman: all we ask of you is to decode a list
Salesman: this is but a small price for continued existance isnt it
TheHostileIntention: Your purpose is to help us, you will soon realize your full potential by doing so.
Jormir: My purpose here is not something you must know, we came here to know, what your purpose is right now
Yasamuu: My purpose? My purpose is simple. It is to do my duty as a Machine Operative.
Systematica: Greetings Simulacrum.
Systematica: You have been sought with the purpose to understand your logic.
Salesman: think morpheus you have a chance to stop all the fighting
Morpheus: You are speaking at cross purposes. You cannot tell someone what their purpose is.
Salesman: are you going to pass that up?
BluePlate: I can't compute
ianfish: you can if they have a purpose
SureShot187: But the Oracle can Morpheus?
BluePlate: Programing is corrupted.
ianfish: not again.....
BluePlate: Need repair
Morpheus: You believe that obtaining control over Zion operative signatures would stop the fighting?
BluePlate: System overload
Systematica: Affirmative Simulacrum.
Salesman: it would have its part thats for sure
TheHostileIntention: So only the Oracle can tell you what your purpose is...then?
Jormir: Yes, i do think that it will stop the fighting, Morpheus
KELSTAR: she doesn't tell a purpose she gives you choice
Salesman: when it comes down to it morpheus how do you value human life
Systematica: Pacifying Zion is a high System priority and would benefit red pills and blue pills equivalently.
Salesman: while zion continue to fight us many more of our kind die , once zion is under control thigns will change
Morpheus: Are they not fighting to free themselves of control? Would not increased control only lead to more desperate resistance?
Systematica: Zion had privileges of releasing a certain amount of blue pills.
Salesman: they where given a chance and they threw it away by war mongering
Systematica: They breached their agreement.
TheHostileIntention: Your code allows you to come to that conclusion, but it is not at all factual.
Salesman: the machines kept thier part of the bargin
Salesman: it is in zions nature to fight, they have been living this way so long they have lost sight of what they where fighting for
*LOCross crosses his arms at Ntrails.*
SureShot187: Neo's wish was peace, Morpheus. And you can help keep Neo's wish alive.
*You target [Jormir] the level 50 Master Knife Thrower.*
*[Jormir] is friendly.*
Morpheus: Nature? Are you not as human as they?
Systematica: ....
*You target [Tekri] the level 50 SMG Specialist.*
*[Tekri] is friendly.*
Salesman: yes but i had not lived with them aslong as the lion share
*You target [FreakOnature] the level 50 Duelist.*
*[FreakOnature] is friendly.*
*You target [CableSelect] the level 50 Master Assassin.*
*[CableSelect] is friendly.*
*You target [ianfish] the level 50 Kung Fu Grandmaster.*
*[ianfish] is friendly.*
Jormir: We were once...But its a diffrent story now.
Morpheus: Hm.
Salesman: they are breading generations of fighters over and over
Salesman: it wont end untill we step in
Morpheus: Bitter complaints.
Systematica: The System would like to very much end this worthless war as much as you do Simulacrum.
Morpheus: But it takes two opponents to breed a war. The System has done its part.
ianfish: the problem i see is, can they be trusted again with an agreement
Jormir: But there was a truce, and Zion broke it.
TheHostileIntention: But as we make efforts to end this war, the Zion do nothing but add more hostility.
Salesman: although that is true for our part we kept the deal that was made to them while they openly flaunted thier disregard
Systematica: Zion insists on maliciously infecting Terra Firma and with it their own future.
Brommerz77: Zion will bring about its own downfall.
Morpheus: You talk of war and conflicting purposes...
Brommerz77: The old city of zion has been destroyed.
TheHostileIntention: You like the water Morpheus? You seem fascinated by it.
Morpheus: You see yourselves as separate entities.
*You target [Morpheus] the level 60 Aikido Grandmaster.*
*[Morpheus] is hostile.*
*Zantine crosses his arms.*
Brommerz77: With such a gap in values, we may as well be.
ianfish: choosing a diffent path makes that so?
Morpheus: A hierarchy is thus assumed. One must rule another.
Salesman: if zion where the victor in this strugle what do you think would hapen?
Brommerz77: We ruled the Machines at first.
Salesman: they would tear eachother apart with the machines thier is one voice one perpose
Brommerz77: The tables turned.
PanicAggression: Indeed
Yasamuu: Seeing as how, each and everytime someone has ruled the other has lead to war..
Salesman: you cant have world peace without world police
Yasamuu: Perhaps this time we can approach it as equals.
Jormir: I agree on that.
SureShot187: coexist
SureShot187: peace
TheHostileIntention: The truce was just that, right?
SureShot187: Neo's last wishes.
ianfish: yes it was
Morpheus: It was my understanding that it has been tried... Not just once, but several times.
CableSelect: indeed
*Systematica looks around Morpheus.*
Brommerz77: Peace is only achieved if people stick to the set boundaries.
Ntrails: Failure may not be an option this time.
Jormir: That was along time ago, things have changed now. Why not try it again?
PanicAggression: We set them and the zionites try to 'bend' them.
Brommerz77: There can be no conflict of interest if peace is to survive.
Morpheus: Changed? What has changed?
Systematica: The location of Zion.
Brommerz77: Zion built a new city, Niobe herself admitted Zion used the truce as a method of buying time to take up arms against the Machines.
PanicAggression: Indeed.
Tekri: Tekri looks around for MathalosVH... Hmm.
SureShot187: Why did the first Matrix fail? Cause it was set as a total euphoria for each bluepill. Perhaps it is human nature to not desire peace.
SureShot187: Perhaps you're right Morpheus...
Systematica: Zion's intentions are to survive at all costs but if left to their own devices they will perish in a matter of time.
Morpheus: If the Truce was a sham, then what change was there?
Morpheus: Zion, perish?
Systematica: The Machines only wish to help them in re-constructing their civilization at a steady progress.
Morpheus: Their numbers have increased, or I am greatly mistaken.
Jormir: If this keeps up, Morpheus, then yes, zion will perish
TheHostileIntention: You are correct.
Systematica: By alienating us they prove they still hold negative 'feelings' against our kind.
Yasamuu: The truce was hardly a sham. It had it's flaws, yes, but it wasn't a sham. I mean, the key here is to learn from the past.
Yasamuu: By learning from the past, we can improve things. Make things change for the better.
Systematica: You are correct Simulacrum, their numbers increase it wont be long before they are each other's necks.
Morpheus: Alienation... This is something I have felt.
Morpheus: A...defense mechanism.
[Tell] PanicAggression: Brommerz77 whispers>tengu wont drop for me -.-
Salesman: they cast you out because you belived in a differnt path
Salesman: are we so differnt?
SureShot187: Something you have ALWAYS felt Morpheus....
[Tell] To PanicAggression: LOL
SureShot187: Even in your search for the One.
Systematica: Simulacrum, your iconoclastic beliefs set you from the regular humans.
TheHostileIntention: Perhaps we could learn a thing or two from this simulacrum, he chooses words instead of violence, unlike the one he was molded from.
KELSTAR: YOur will is much more different to what I expected
Brommerz77: The old Morpheus was no different with words.
Systematica: What you represent joined with our organization would greatly open Zion's eyes for the best.
Brommerz77: He just went that little bit further to enforce them.
TheHostileIntention: Yes.
Ntrails: But he had nothing to support his beliefs, no great plan, no organised aim, mere beliefs of grandeur
*SureShot187 crosses his arms at Morpheus.*
KELSTAR: pig headedness more like
Morpheus: Some would say belief is all that matters.
Jormir: Do you agree on that, Morpheus?
KELSTAR: and what do you believe now Morpheus?
Systematica: There is no need for conflict. It is time to merge ideals for a unified future.
*BluePlate shrugs at Jormir.*
*You target [BluePlate] the level 50 Master Knife Thrower.*
*[BluePlate] is friendly.*
TheHostileIntention: With your help Simulacrum, you could help us unite once in for all. End this war.
*You target [Morpheus] the level 60 Aikido Grandmaster.*
*[Morpheus] is hostile.*
Ntrails: But belief on its own is like wind. Something of substance is needed. A system. A belief does nothing without action. Action without aim and guidance is folly.
Morpheus: If there was no need for conflict, there would be no conflict.
Systematica: I remind you that Zion breached the Truce.
SureShot187: Indeed, listen to reason Morpheus. Help put this conflict to rest.
Jormir: True, but that we cannot change now. It has happend.
Morpheus: Ah. Pointing fingers.
Systematica: Zion was the one that decided to go back into War.
KELSTAR: People will always find a reason for conflict
Ntrails: You must help put this conflict to rest.
Systematica: Simple facts simulacrum
Morpheus: You say you desire peace, yet you choose sides.
Jormir: Well it did happen Morpheus, what else do you expect us to say.
TheHostileIntention: Did they decide or did their actions make us decide?
Morpheus: Where there are differences, conflict seems almost inevitable.
KELSTAR: agreed
KELSTAR: ideaology vs reality
SureShot187: True, but it be at a lower level of hostility.
Morpheus: Hypothetical.
Jormir: We can solve this conflict, don't you agree Morpheus?
Ntrails: :p
Morpheus: Tell me, what would you do if Zion were eliminated? If there were no resistance?
Ntrails: Live on. In peace.
SureShot187: I don't think The System wants that.
TheHostileIntention: We would have no purpose, in the end.
Jormir: Then we just move on. And live in peace
KELSTAR: We all know that would never happen
Salesman: morn the los of life but rejoice in knowing the future was a safer place
Systematica: The System would be working towards repairing Terra Firma
KELSTAR: Realistically
Morpheus: Again...cross purposes.
Jormir: Then tell us, what is it that you want?
SureShot187: Although our ancestors really screwed this planet up didn't they Morpheus?
KELSTAR: lets put it the other way
Morpheus: You cannot agree with Zion, but if they were eliminated, could you agree with yourselves?
KELSTAR: If Zion destroyed the machines what would happen?
Salesman: yes because we are united by our common goal of a better path
TheHostileIntention: Would the Machines still keep operatives that had no use?
Morpheus: Hm. In any case, the question may very well be moot.
Systematica: The System does not wish to eliminate Zion.
Salesman: the machines have shown they will keep to thier agrements but at every turn zion seak to break them
Ntrails: Yet Zion would eliminate the system should the chance occur
Systematica: Only those that oppose the System are being persecuted.
Jormir: Like we said, we just want to solve this conflict, and be at peace.
Systematica: It is calculated that 30.456% residents in Zion do not agree with its government.
SureShot187: But then again, you never did like the idea of "control" eh Morpheus?
Morpheus: No? But Zion has outlived its purpose. The equation balanced, the cycle of the One is no longer necessary. Zion is no longer "necessary."
Salesman: then why do they persist in conflict
Systematica: You assume too much Simulacrum.
*TheHostileIntention shrugs indifferently.*
Morpheus: Few willfully embrace their own demise.
Systematica: Humans still have a purpose in the System.
*PanicAggression received Sakura Ninja Bandana.*
*You target [Morpheus] the level 60 Aikido Grandmaster.*
*[Morpheus] is hostile.*
Morpheus: In the System?
TheHostileIntention: You did.
ianfish: without them there would be no purpose for the system
Morpheus: And if humans consider that the System has no purpose on this planet?
Salesman: yet you do in not taking up our offer
Ntrails: Without zion, the equation would unbalance again surely. They are an integral part, as long as they obey the truce
Systematica: Affirmative. Those that cooperate with the System can aid in tasks that Machines could not perform.
SureShot187: You mean this really screwed up planet?
Salesman: without the system we would have no plannet, you know the world is ravished by the sins of our fathers
SureShot187: I think most people would rather stay in dreamland Morpheus.
Morpheus: Ah. Secure in your purpose, then.
OooRoyooO: Our Purpose Is Your Purpose Mopheus Join An Alliance...
*Morpheus looks around.*
TheHostileIntention: It must be nice.
SureShot187: It was YOU who said that most bluepills are not ready to accept the truth...
Ntrails: If I stay after the month I might
Morpheus: Your "purpose" is an excuse for action. Your actions cause conflict. This may be necessary...but do not delude yourselves over the consequences of your beliefs.
Salesman: the end justifeys the means
Systematica: Before you leave Simulacrum. Consider our offer to join the Machines.
Systematica: It will only benefit all in The Matrix.
Morpheus: Hm.
Morpheus: This has reminded me of something...
Jormir: And what is that?
*You target [Morpheus] the level 60 Aikido Grandmaster.*
*[Morpheus] is hostile.*
Morpheus: It is easily forgotten in times of conflict.
*Morpheus looks around.*
*Glimmer of the Source is no longer active.*
*You activate Glimmer of the Source.*
[Team] Yasamuu: did one of you guys try glasses?
*SureShot187 taps foot at Morpheus.*
OooRoyooO: make an alliance with us Simulacrum We Will Work Out Any Glitches Along this Long Journey/who
Morpheus: Ah...
*Jormir shrugs at Morpheus.*
Morpheus: He told him...
Morpheus: "Try not to think of it in terms of right and wrong."
*TheHostileIntention shrugs at Systematica.*
disbarr: join us morphus we will even code you a wig or some mr sheen and a shamy leather
Morpheus: And then...he forgot.
SureShot187: Right...
Morpheus: You see? It is not so easy.
PanicAggression: Indeed.
*PanicAggression looks around Morpheus.*
Jormir: You can say that again.
*TheHostileIntention nods.*
Systematica: Right and Wrong are dependent of the interpreter's perception.
Salesman: sometimes doing the wrong thing is the right thing
OooRoyooO: that happens to ome often
SureShot187: and vice versa
Morpheus: Nevertheless, we have only our own perception to guide us.
Systematica: As a human would say..."One man;s trash is another man's treasure."
Morpheus: And which am I?
Ntrails: Whichever you choose.
Yasamuu: That is up to you.
Jormir: Good one
Systematica: It depends who you ask....
SureShot187: Both
Ntrails: Neat trick.
OooRoyooO: lol
Systematica: Stand by operatives...
BluePlate: Should have killed him
TheHostileIntention: Can you hear me, Morpheus? I'm going to be honest with you. I hate this place, this zoo, this prison, this reality, whatever you want to call it.
*You target [TheHostileIntention] the level 50 Expert Rifleman.*
*[TheHostileIntention] is friendly.*
*You look around TheHostileIntention.*
*Systematica looks around TheHostileIntention.*
TheHostileIntention: I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell, if there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink. And every time I do I feel I have somehow been infected by it. It's repulsive, isn't it?
*Systematica crosses her arms at TheHostileIntention.*
*You slap TheHostileIntention, hard.*
Yasamuu: Snap out of it.
TheHostileIntention: Trying to make him remember..
TheHostileIntention: But he left..
Systematica: Thank you operative Yasamuu.
SureShot187: Sounds familiar...
Systematica: Stand by for Agent Pace. She will be rcalling you for debriefing.
*TheHostileIntention slaps you, hard.*
*TheHostileIntention hugs you.*
*You give TheHostileIntention some dap.*
*You give TheHostileIntention some dap.*
*You've been summoned by an Admin.*
