| Clear, concise, love it. I'll make sure to watch myself with my own Corps and stuff, wouldn't want to level a city for shits and giggles.

Or at least, if you do, expect what you would expect from a country or corporation doing something similar "in the real world-" a PR nightmare and sanctions out the asshole. -Stormy

If my CRI likes one thing, it's PR. As a wise and right man once said: "This is the PR century."
| Hey guys, Pirat3 here, also the Phoenix Corps and Norn Incorporated roleplayer.
Just wanted to say that I have made the choice to get rid of both the Phoenix Corps and Norn Incorporated. The Phoenix Corps will no longer be an active police force in Glitch City, and Norn Incorporated has been leveled entirely. There may be remnants of some Phoenix Corps forces lying around, but they will not be an organized police force.
That's all. Have a nice day.

| In lieu of actually creating additional threads for the following events, they are being listed here for everyone's convenience. Namely, the consequences of some recent, major events:
The K-TRAN Conglomerate, having been fingered by the majority of Glitch City's multiple resident megacorporations and law enforcement as the responsible party for the Tungsten Tragedy, has been subject to defenestration in the form of the impending multiple class action lawsuits, their power being cut by Jinterprises, and several acts of vandalism, espionage, or shadowruns, making continued business in Glitch City toxic for the foreseeable future.
The super AI "MERLIN," which was the actual party responsible for taking over the orbital weapons platform in the first place, has incurred the ire of the "bigger fish" in Glitch City and has... well. Vanished. Whether they were deleted, exiled, imprisoned or otherwise rendered impotent is unknown to anyone save their judge, an entity which goes by the handle of "NIDHOGG."
The "gang warfare" occurring in a few districts has subsided with the accumulation of massed law enforcement presence in the area, although skirmishes continue to occur between what locals and police alike assume to be private security and ruffians. Partly due to the corporate immunity statutes on the books and partly due to growing weariness/lack of supplies, the GCPD does not engage, for now.
Cryptic messages sent moments after the Tungsten Tragedy hint at something hideous underneath the Cathedral District, which a private security company is currently investigating... and will probably lead to one more city wide or at least district level event.
There will also be a series of threads that will serve not just as a continuing response to the recent corporate messes, but also as /cyb/ ruleset reminders and reiterations going forward, including rules for GM/DM's and any roleplayer seeking to roleplay as a corporation or other major organization.
Feel free to discuss any points that you may have questions about.
