Hivemind

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Well...it all happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away....i.e. Its GenCon's fault.

how did this all get started?

Funny you should that question now, when it was excately a year ago it started yesterday.

I'm sure someone else will fill you in though, I'm too sleepy right now to write such a long story. (It's 5:00 AM here).

Exactly!!! You're catching on!

You see, Dark Helmet and the others were all gone to GenCon. So Lonestar and Barf decided to rebel and the Hive began.

Honestly, I don't think anyone's ever come up with a specific definition for the Hivemind. I guess the only way to understand it is to simply join in.

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

The Hive is everything. There is nothing but the Hive. Resistance is futile. Join us.

The Hivemind is simple a thread that people post to in more of a way that they post to a chat. It was started one year ago quite by accident when a few of us started posting to a thread in meta during Gen Con. The boards were very slow then because most of the people seemed to be at the convention. The HM threads are usually silly, but they can be anything.

And this is moving to Meta...

Don't go on Nutkinland much do you?

Elitist? Hardly. I've been posting there for quite a while now and found the community to be open and receptive to different viewpoints and opinions. If you spend too much time in the Angry Chair though you will get slapped (and called Sally).
