Let's see...there's apparently some hidden boards or something that you have to sign up for immigrate to FedCom in order to view. Let's take a look at that process on How to join FedCom.

Step 1: Sign up for the boards. Easy enough.

Step 2: Read our little mission statement. Seems like your standard "If you want to be a robo-dragon, it has to be for the motherland" kind of spiel.

Step 3: Send Taygon a load of personal information. The only thing he doesn't want is your actual street address. But don't worry, this information is simply for census taking/biometrics data. Perfectly confidential.

Step 4: Glorious leader will PM you a few more questions and then welcome you as part of FedCom!

I'm sorely tempted to do this and find out just what sort of sperging rants state secrets could possibly be hidden away. Then again, if you stare into the abyss...

I am an otherkin, as are a good share of the people on this forum, and none of us believe ourselves to be reincarnations, and defining creatures that live in the astral plane as fictional could be construed as a racial slur.

Not only does it look like they think they're already dragons, but I'm a horrible racist too. I've also fired off a PM to their Great Leader. I'm gonna see how far this rabbit hole goes.

Don't worry guys. He probably would never use nukes. If he did, there wouldn't be any bodies left behind and well...Let's have Taygon speak for himself!

Taygon posted:

What I'm talking about is an alternative to burning or burying the bodies of foreign soldiers/mercenaries/hunters who come to our home and try to hurt us and the other people we are protecting. What if we are forced into a war, and it causes a famine in our allied human population? If we're at war, there will be lots of corpses of our enemies available: why not just eat them? If we do that, then we can take a lot of pressure off of our traditional food stores, and save that food for our allies... meanwhile, we don't starve either.

At least his bizarre idea of cannibalism is rooted in practical needs. Certainly not influenced by personal quirks.

Taygon posted:

I sometimes do the same thing, and I'm also mildly a voraphile... though for me, it's more about the stretching, rather than the actual consumption of something alive. Like snakes eating big dinners, rather than something shrunk to the size of popcorn (the 'cheap' vore). Unbirthing is another turn-on for me.

Ah. Well, at the very least I'm in the forum proper now. Just don't tell nobody!

If this insane dream ever came anything close to reality, he's painting his nation as the perfect enemies.

Inhuman monsters that practice cannibalism and look nothing like us: Goddamn field day for a nation at war. The propaganda writes itself, and when it comes to actual 'man vs Cybtran' conflict, our soldiers will have absolutely no problem shooting these monstrosities.

Look. Sure they look like monsters and they occasionally eat people, but that doesn't mean they're super-villains or anything! Isn't that right Taygon?

Taygon posted:

My thinking, right now, is that dragons should do all of the above. Humans number in the billions, and have a world of resources at their disposal. They are an enormous threat, and dragonkind should address that threat with an appropriate response: don't let them use any of those advantages. There is no room for chivalry in modern warfare, and it's highly unlikely that the humans would show dragonkind any mercy at all. Any war we find ourselves facing will almost certainly be an automatic Total War, and you know what that means... Our entire economy must be able to switch to producing weapons and armor at the drop of a hat, and there are no "rules". We must slaughter the enemy as rapidly as possible, or else they will trample us with their sheer numbers.

I'm in favor of adopting an automatic Total War stance the moment we commit ourselves to any battle. Take no prisoners, show no mercy, and be absolutely ferocious. Dragons aren't sadists, so kill fast to limit suffering. Slay the wounded, before they can recover and attack us again. Destroy any human settlements we encounter, and kill all who live there: civilians support enemy soldiers by providing shelter and supplies, and can be conscripted to fight just as easily, so they are enemies too. Make no distinctions: kill anything that smells human, period. That sounds like draconic thinking, to me.

In war, there are no rules, and it's ridiculous to impose them on ourselves. Kill the enemy, or be killed by them. It doesn't matter how the enemy dies — by claw or fang, by fire or ice, by bullets or shrapnel, by explosives, or by chemical or biological weapons — as long as the enemy dies and we don't, that counts as a very good day for any dragon.

This is amazing. How can they even begin to think about creating a society or super dragon mechs when they can't even make their own drat symbol? The entire thing is just lovely roleplaying.

The entire thing is just one rip-off after the other. In the hidden forum on Cytrans, most of the design images look like they were taken at random from Deviant Art/Google Images. A section showcasing individual parts available for dragon model Cytrans are cropped from a D&D Monster Manual.

Speaking of role-playing, designing your own Cytran body reads like building a character for a video game. "Pick x parts for y body" sort of stuff.

He was a doctor. Performed a lot of unnecessary surgery. And then in 2000 he formed a secret society.
After 1993 he decided that humanity didn't have enough dicks to survive. And he wasn't alone. He had at least fifty followers when he died...

They conducted rituals in their basements. Bizarre rituals intended to bring about hermaphroditic robo-dragons and now it looks like it may never happen!

Also, Staliph gives us insight into the sub-classes of the various Cytrans.

Crab, you've gone above and beyond the call, but I've got another question:

does he every talk about 'that arrest' alluded to in his post about highschool?

Who is Hrothgar?

Still digging around, so I don't know much about this "arrest" that keeps being mentioned. As soon as I find something out, I'll mention it.

As for Hrothgar, it appears he is an ex-member of FedCom who used to be friends with Taygon. Again, I'm not sure what happened, but he parted under hostile circumstances and his account deleted from the board. I think Hrothgar ended up badmouthing the whole project on deviant art and other message boards.

*EDIT* Well that was stupid. The arrest is mentioned on the first page of the interview.

I regret to inform that Glorious Leader has become paranoid about trolls and demoted all new arrivals to a step above guest. My access to the forum is only slightly better than that of a visitors now. I'm going to try to appeal that, but I have a feeling it won't work.

He's aware of the thread, so try to hang in there.

The problem is that the new requirements are 60 days of "support membership" before I can get my previous status back. This community appears to be imploding on itself, mired in fear of shadowy, internet boogeymen lurking behind corners. I honestly don't think this group will last even thirty days.

I also don't think he's aware of this thread in particular. It wasn't linked to or referenced before my demotion. The only one talked about was the Facepunch thread and that didn't appear to have anything leaked from the "private" forums. If it had, I would imagine the discussion of it would be a bit more heated.

Edminster posted:

What does "support membership" entail? Because this stuff needs documentation.

Their membership system is a tiered set up.

-Visitor: Just registering on the forums. You can only post in the section open for public viewing

-Supporter: You've expressed an interest in joining FedCom. You get access to a "Friends of Fedcom" section of the board. The idea, apparently, is that you post in this section so the full members can get to know you. To get your application considered for the next tier, you must be part of this for 60 days and have a post count of 200+.

-Newcomer: What I was before they shifted everything around. More board sections are opened up, though there are still some topics blocked off. These sections are where I was getting all my post material

-Interested Member: Formerly "Immigrant." Access to sections that discuss the Citadel and its layout as well as a section dedicated to "animal uplifting." Not only do they want to make a secret underground base to house their robo-dragon bodies, but they also want to give animals human level intelligence.

That's about all I know about it. How the membership works got tweaked around a bit because of the sudden paranoia over trolls. The only other thing to mention is that Taygon is the only admin and moderators are council members for their made-up government.

Whenever you get the urge to cash-out, you should ask how they will be able to hold it together when the first member gets shot by a native defending his home when all it takes is a handful of internet trolls for them to implode in on themselves. He doesn't seem to realize that casualties would be an inevitable result of his plans and I wonder if he or his members are truly prepared to die to fulfill their dream of turning into immortal multi-cock dragon warrior kings.

When I do cash-out, I'll be sure to do it in the Q&A section for all to see.

To me this would be a point of the greatest concern. 30 guests reading the forums is a massive record. The people on this project are pretty few and are paying for schooling in some cases. They are not permitted to see the numbers that they themselves have presumably contributed. Why is this? Where is your money? It certainly isn't in the billions. Even if the science behind this were strong, a pyramid topped by a 27 year old at the oldest... It's just not believable.

I know for a fact that there is at least one 12 year old member on their forums.

Can I break up this lovely chain of posts to express how stupid and condescending and ignorant a certain point of Taygon's was? I can't find the exact post at the moment, I think it was around the time when his DARK CRIMINAL PAST was being brought up, but he made a post where he talked about "When I was a kid I got misdiagnosed with ADHD, turns out I don't have it but I do have Asperger's."

Now, in that post he went on a little schpiel about how Asperger's isn't a disorder, it's just the brain being wired in a different way, and you know what? I sorta buy it. Like, sure, the brain gets wired in a way that makes certain things a lot more difficult, but it also helps you with other stuff and allows for seeing the world in ways most people won't.

That's all well and good, but he also threw ADHD under the bus in the same post with some douchey "they thought I had ADD? Heh, my brain isn't inattentive and sluggish " statement. ADHD, a condition about which the last sentence in the paragraph before this one also holds true, maybe more so. Seriously, if you're gonna be all sanctimonious about how your condition isn't a condition and people think that there's stuff wrong with it are ignorant meanieheads, have some loving self-awareness and realize how dumb you look.

I mean, apologies for what is in some way a "leave those poor ADHD kids alone!" derail, but it just strikes me as this profoundly ignorant thing for him to have all these self-righteous speeches about how Asperger's and his fetishes and his weird dragon moralities are all these unassailable wonderful things and any insult to them is born out of ignorance and stupidity... and then turn around and say condescending dismissive poo poo about another group of people who've got "differently wired brains."

I'm sure that if you tried to point that out to him, he would threaten to ban you and tell you to never bring it up again. Besides, at this point we really shouldn't be surprised by any sort of hypocrisy that crops up over there.

"Surfshack Tito" is an alias of one(?) of Chris Chan's trolls. Maybe he decided to pick on Taygon obsessively, or maybe it's just a copycat who stole the infamous Internet alias. It seems likely that this person found the ED page and came from there, as neither goons nor facepunch people did anything like this before the forums got shut down the first time.

Also, as of this writing, the cwcki main page is down, so maybe there's something going on with Chris Chan and his trolls? Maybe they decided that Taygon is a riper and more interesting target?

My money's on a 4channer in any case.
