Holy shitballs, what happened to the dumptruck? What happened to YOU? thanks bout the level btw, but where you been?
While you were gone, a lot happened to the dumptruck. It’s quite a long and complicated story, so I’ll sum it up very briefly. I don’t quite remember when you were last there, so I’ll give an overall review.
There was a time the dumptruck was quite plain for a few months, without any real strong regulars. That’s when I had already became the most prominent chatter there, and generally looked over the room.
Eventually, it had established a base with chatters. Three main names emerged (amongst many) that you will need to know for the remainder of the story: Barinski, Lauraocal, topsup.
There was quite a long time I was looked at as king of the dumptruck. Mods were pretty much non existant in the room. I took care of trolls, regulars, and general matters handled there. Some grew jealousy or envy of my position, while some just felt I was being too “cocky” about it. True or not, that’s how they felt at the time. But most of the people who claimed this were new to the room, and had no idea of what work I had put forth to make the room the way it was. In fact, most of the people who claimed this, wouldn’t even have been there if it wasn’t for me. Moving on, because all that is a matter of opinion.
Lauraocal was a bitch by nature. I had ran into many arguments with her, just due to her mentality, simply. But through watching me and how I acted in the dumptruck, over time, Lauraocal had grew feelings for me. At the same time, topsup, being the first man to ever get Laura to talk, and introduce her to chatting in the dumptruck, had already had her a bit emotionally. She had feelings for the both of us.
One day me and Laura got into an argument, and said “If anybody makes the dumptruck the dumptruck, it’s topsup.” I was furious with her saying that statement, and broke into a great argument over all of dumptruck, where many had tried to join. Guys like topsup tried to defend laura, for it seemed like i was just beating up on her. At some point, someone called a mod.
To backtrack a bit, when me and Laura were originally talking, she had sent me pictures of herself. Some were regular pictures, some were naked. Either way, we were developing a sort of bond.
At some point in the argument, I was so furious with her that I threatened to expose the pictures she sent of me. She deserved worse though, if you read half the things she said. That’s when the mod, Isfan, banned me for 9 days. How 9 days you ask?
During the whole argument, Isfan displayed to me how poor of a mod she was. Whether it was belittling me upon entering the room, without even knowing what was going on, warning without reason, being sexist, or generally insulting, I had no respect for her. Near the end of the argument, I made quite a strong statement towards her and her actions, and even concluded the last sentence with something to the manner of “If you want to ban me, go ahead. But it’ll show me how much of an ignorant bitch you really are.”
So, she tied on 1 or 2 bans on top of a week ban.
That was the first time I been banned since I first seized the dumptruck in the civil wars of ’08.
During the ban, I tried talking to her on an alt, but that’s when she showed me how raw idiotic she really was. She was the type of mod who took things very personally, but she was a piece of shit as a person, and was very biased and power abusing. She put more bans on, even claiming once or twice she did it cuz she felt like it.
When I finally came back, the dumptruck was in ruin. Topsup and Laura and a few select others had power for the most part. Young regs or basic chatters were very confused about where I was and what was going on, and I lost a lotta respect throughout the whole chat. I myself, felt defeated.
There was a point that me and topsup were having arguments every day, for he was generally pissed that I was looked at the leader as the dumptruck. Subtley, he tried to gain power. One day, he had an idea, and decided to tell everybody to stop putting up with my bullshit, and went to another chatroom, pride. He took most of the dumptruck regulars with him. I stayed in the dumptruck with a select few others.
There were some that switched between the chatrooms, but for the most part, they all left for pride to stay. The few loyal chatters I had starting dying out one by one.
After a small amount of time, they realised the change was more of a “Fad” than a good idea, and started coming back to the dumptruck. They realised the dumptruck really was the best chat around, with no comparison. Eventually, almost all of them came back. topsup stayed in pride. I spoke with topsup a few times regarding the matter, and he generally had a good heart with the right intentions. He just went about it the wrong way, and was a bit blinded. When he seen the regulars for what they were, he lost a lotta respect, and never returned to the dumptruck.
Back in the dumptruck, I was furious with the regulars. I looked at all who left the dumptruck as traitors, and didn’t accept them back in heart. There were a few I came to consolation with, such as alinaa, who explained to me she had friends there and here, had no loyalty to either one, and only wanted to visit all her friends. she never claimed either chat. I forgave her, and only a small few others.
Well, nobody likes being hated on. A lot of the regulars got defensive with me, or just offensive due to the nature of how I was treating them. I was actually trying to get them to leave, and rebuild the dumptruck, because after topsup, it was a bad time indeed. Well, now, after pride, it was even worse. The next two months were dark times for the truck.
Lauraocal, heart broken by both me and topsup, was very emotional through the whole thing. She ended up turning against me again, and this time, she fought fire with fire. For a little while, she claimed love for me, and tried to befriend me, but for more than just friends. Being skeptical, I never gave into it. Even when she said she wanted to fly down to see me for a week, I rejected her for what she had done unto me.
BUT, in the time we had been talking, I taught her a lot. A lot about me, the dumptruck, people, and power. What I didn’t realise, is I was pretty much teaching her how to destroy me. After a while she realised as a woman, she had power over men online, and they tend to listen to her. Beyond that, most people tend to listen to women more than men period when it comes to sob stories. She learned that one through when she got me banned.
Once she realised she wasn’t going to have me, she became lonely and desparate. She started seeking others. That’s when she “recruited” Barinski, a friend of mine at the time.
Barinski was a lonely and desparate man himself, the type who’d do quite a lot just for some pussy. Laura claiming feelings for him stroked his ego, made him confident, and pushed him to impress.
Eventually, Barinski started turning against me, feeding into the bullshit Laura fed him, the same way she did topsup. Barinski wasn’t the only one, Laura went after a few other of my close friends, and tried to get them to betray me by putting on a show and flirting with them. The ones she couldn’t make traitors, she tried to steer away.
There were two friends I’ve had in the dumptruck since day one. Cremesaver116, who I call the queen of the dumptruck, and dragoon8727, who was the original man i started the dumptruck civil wars with. After I won power, and he left for a few months, when he came back, we actually became great friends. I viewed him as prince of the dumptruck.
Well, they started coming back around this time, Dumptruck’s darkest hour. Lauraocal chased creme away with very strong trolling. That had me pissed. She claimed to do it because she was jealous of how I treated creme versus her. Little did I know at the time she was plotting my downfall.
Little by little, Laura grew power, but indirectly. She was never “Queen” of the dumptruck, one could say, but she in fact did pull all the strings behind closed doors. Knowing how to work people from what I taught her, and what little she knew about being a woman, there wasn’t much I could do, especially after the loss of respect and power from the ban. On top of it all, most people hated me well…because…I hated them for betraying the dumptruck. I felt they shoulda stuck it through the tough times, instead of being a wuss and just going wherever is easiest.
Finally, another mod, restlessfox came. I don’t know if it was for Laura or not, but either way, he was there. Most people hated it, because he started permanently settling in the room, and this was an unmodded room. The way we kept people from trolling too much or getting out of hand, is i taught the regulars how to defend themselves and the chat.
Fox was a person much like Laura. A selfish opportunist. Again, he was one of the men Laura started feeding bs to.
It turned out, tho I had been very anti-mod up to this point, I was ok with Fox. I didn’t like him there, but he hadn’t been an ass or doing anything wrong. He simply seemed like a chatter hanging out there with an M next to his name. Writing this now, I wonder if it was all a ploy that Lauraocal told him to do.
Some of the regs we’re mad at me for partially-befriending the mod. I knew I didn’t have the power to fight against him anyways, so I was doing what I can to keep the dumptruck strong.
Dragoon8727, the prince of the dumptruck, had came back around this time. Lauraocal made him leave the dumptruck, and he said it was for good. I was furious with Laura, and tried to ban her from the dumptruck. Every other person I tried to ban from the dumptruck, I was successful due to my influence and power. I was too weakened at this point for it to work, and Laura had too many followers. I believe she pushed fox to do what he was about to do.
It was at this point where restlessfox brang horrible news. He had told us his reasoning for hanging out was because kongregate was pushing for every room to have a mod in it, but we didn’t buy into it very much. That wasn’t the bad news. He had told us there was no longer suppose to be rooms owned by the owners, but my mods. A new feature was coming out, where a mod could be a room owner, and watch solely after that room. He claimed he wanted to claim the dumptruck.
I lost my mind. There was NO time a mod could ever claim the dumptruck, it was frankly against the rules. Beyond that, especially not no mod who been there for 2 months, where I had fought tooth and nail for it for a year. We had it so perfect, and it was all falling in front of me.
As time grew on, Laura fed him more power, and convinced people to join his side. I told him if he ever were to claim the room, that he’d at LEAST have to do it with my permission, or talking about it with me first. He agreed. I figured if he was gonna do it anyways, lets at least do it the right way. I was gonna give him the low down on running the room properly. If he did this wrong, he’d screw himself up.
One day I logged on and he was owner, without telling me anything. That’s when I turned against fox, and saw his true intentions. He was indeed selfish, for his next move was to rename the dumptruck “The Den”, to compliment his name “restlessfox”. Laura supported him all the way, and got others to support him. Barinski supported whatever Laura supported. Laura could wanna cut his balls off and he’d support it.
I told them if the name changed, I am leaving. I did tell them though, once the name changes, it will never be the same. They will regret what they did, and eventually leave the den.
He took an illegal “vote” with the regs whether or not they wanted the name changed, claimed that more regs were for it than against it, even tho this wasn’t true, and had the name changed. The dumptruck was no more.
The end.
Aftermath:
Firzen561: I never stepped foot in the den for the rest of my life. I now wander kong, with no real home. At the same time, it’s a blessing in disguise, for I’m allowed to switch rooms, and no longer shackled to the truck. Also, I don’t have to worry about so much drama, and can do what I want.
Restlessfox: After fox had got all he wanted, his own room, and it named after him, he couldn’t give a shit less about it. At the same time, he had no idea how to handle it, with it being the attitude that it was, plus with me gone, and the regs not helping him out anymore, cuz frankly, they didn’t need his ass no more. He took a leave for 2 weeks, when he came back, it was in chaos. He couldn’t handle the room, and eventually gave up ownership to a new mod, Dr_G_Sto. Sto had only been a kongregator for 4-5 months, and only a mod for 2 months. He nows resides in the village, just as a regular mod, but just to chat and play games.
Barinski and Laurocal: Laura went on to bullshit barinski for many many months, over half a year, about how she wants him and will be there with him, and countless times never showed up. I guess all of barinski’s repeated attempts finally took a toll, cuz maybe a couple weeks ago she finally did fly to america to meet up with him, and they stayed together for about a week. They both left the den, it had become uber chaotic after restlessfox’s leave, and they realised it was nothing no more, and that frankly, I was right. Barinski still chats in the village, Laura barely comes on kongregate, if at all anymore.
topsup: Topsup stayed in pride for a very long time, and we had a few conversations. He actualy did leave kong eventually, I haven’t seen him on in months.
Dragoon8727: I found him in the Den after it had been born. I removed him from my friends list. We had been the greatest friends, and the worst enemies, but it was at that point that we stopped talking.
The den: One of the worst chats on kong. It’s one thing to have a lotta trolls, the dumptruck did. But these are kiddy idiotic trolls with no entertainment value. it’s not a respect chat at all.
The dumptruck: Gone. For all the wrong reasons. I fought for it till the day it died. Keep an eye out though, you never know what might happen. I’ll never forget it, or believe that it’s gone forever. One day, It may become again, and be the greatest chat of all time.
