A Guide to Salvation on Maplewood Online archived

So I had a dream, and this is what came out of it. Inspired by Dante's Inferno and also by Babar's Dream. If you find yourself in hell or purgatory, it could be a compliment because MOL rewards certain virtues over others. I could only post a very compressed version. Follow the link below for a bigger version.

A GUIDE TO SALVATION ON MOL

Holy Moly - how long did that take?!?

Well done! I'd buy the t-shirt.

A good week. I had a few days off too.

It was a load of fun to make. It was perfect timing with the end of the world coming up and all.

The only thing is that I made the original drawing before Stoner Hill came up, otherwise I would have put that in.

Good thing the world didn't end before you had a chance to post it.

That is purely amazing!

That is fantastic !!!--but I think a few were left out--not including me-I don't post enough.....other than that it looks to be right on the money !!!

and few others should def-be in there too...

That was pure genius, and I am really disappointed not to be on it. :cry: But otherwise, awesome.

I want to see it bigger! I want it on a coffee mug!

Very cool ... but I wish I was on it too!

First of all... that is f-ing incredible.

Second of all... that is totally f-ing incredible.

Lastly... I think there's really a very small difference between "learned" and "know-it-all" (says the learned-know-it-all :wink: ). That said, I'll do a boogie for the rather lofty position I seemed to have taken in your wicked-cool dream depiction :boogie:

I was hoping to see some kickboxers on there. Seekers of redemption, now that's funny.

OMG!!! WTF??? :wink:

That is fantastic! Great work.

This is truly AWESOME. In fact, it's BEAUTIFUL! The detail and colors are stunning.

Quite the opposite here. I'm glad to not see myself on it. It means I'm not in trouble enough to register on the radar.:smoking:

Midway in the journey of our life
I came to the village of Maplewood,
for the straight way was lost.

Ah, how hard it is to tell
the nature of that online community, savage, dense and harsh --
the very thought of it renews my fear!

It is so bitter, banning is hardly more so.
But to set forth the good I found
I will recount the posts I read.

How I came there, I cannot really tell,
I was so full of sleep
And the search engine did guide me.

After I rested my weary eyes for a while,
I took my way again along the navigation bar,
my mind racing with each javascript action.

But now, near the beginning of the browser's edge,
a cat light and swift
and covered with a spotted pelt

Refused to back away from my peripheral vision,
but so impeded, barred the way,
that many times I screamed, "get off the keyboard!"

It was the hour of morning,
when the sun mounts with those stars
that shone with it when the server

First set in motion those fair postings,
so that, despite that beast with gaudy fur,
I could hope for good, encouraged

By the hour of the day and the sweet season,
only to be struck by anger
When I beheld a Soapbox title in my way.

Criticism of a local establishment that did
Refuse to toast its bagels for custom.
I held my head high, furious with hunger --

So that the air appeared to tremble about me.
....

It's brilliant but it's wrong.

Thanks everyone. I'm glad people like it. It's intended to be a little light hearted and cartoony, but with a bit of black humor.

I placed people based on my impressions, and who I interact with most on threads, so I probably missed a lot of people. I might have misplaced one or two people too, which is what I'm gathering from mjh's comment.

I had to put myself in hell because I put other people there. Like I said, being in hell is not necessarily a bad thing if you are a Conservative. And because I dabble a lot in the soapbox and soapbox politics realms, the posters in those areas are heavily represented.
