Protecting the leet is not just a fashion

I just read the article in TAG (http://www.anarchy-online.com/conten...old/leets.html) about "Idolisation of the leet". It gave the impression that protecting the leet would be something new and just a fashion. But it is not.

We in FriendLeet Foundation begun to protect the leet long time before there was any leet dolls. We are not just a group in another side of galaxy who has not even seen a living leet. We even do have some leet members. Now we are worried if this fashion will do more damage than good to our cause.

The leet are cute and intellingent but that should not be a reason to continue terminating them (referring to the article)! But we should not forget our less cute cousins the Burger bar worker mutant or even the rollerrats. They have a right to good life as well.

Peace citizens!

I just want to know where to buy all l33t products. I want to make a coat out of the many skins I've taken from leetor, each of his many rezzes.

Leetas pants

leet hats

eleet boots

strike leet, oh maybe that's reet, dunno, gloves.

Fur is FUN!

Sure the leets are cute but as the article says they are dangerous to small children who, thanks to the selling of the leet dolls, attempt to make pets out of them.

In addition, the banning of leet hunting will work against people too poor to afford high price weapons to take out the larger animals or too poor to afford having their meat imported from Earth.

Many a poor clan family has fed themselves with leet meat. And the instantly paid bounty albeit small has aided the bank accounts of many a poor colonist. Banning the hunting of leets will put an economic strain on many people.

Note that I said hunting. I have no objections to the ban of leet fighting, an entertainment that is cruel and barbaric.

But please do not sentimentalize the leet. It is a wild animal and its numbers cause it to be an ecological problem.

Mmmm ... leet meat. When fleeing from OT slavery in the wastelands I survived quite well on leet alone. It is bland unless
properly seasoned and cooked. I have many recipes.

Rollerrats, on the other hand .... quite tasteless. No good fur, they stink, they attack anything that moves. Very stringy and unappetizing. Many if not all are diseased.

Agramas have tasty, flaky white meat like that of fish. Can be dangerous to hunt though unless you are in large group.

Ancient Chinese (a race from Earth) used to say: "If its back faces Heaven, you can eat it." That covers pretty much everything.

Somebody has forgotten to take his meds if he's thinking he's a leet.

Yep, all those years spent in leet form can mess you up!

Zane turned away from the screen, raises from his chair and walks up to the panorama windows in his apartment in Omni-1 Trade district.

... looks down to the masses of organic and inorganic life moving. He looked at the horizon and quietly spoke to himself;

- "Exploit what you conquer, be ruthless, brutal. Your enemies is not the clans or raving lunatics, but remorse, guilt and the so-called "humanity".

He sank back into his thoughts, suddenly he was interrupted by the intercom system.

- "... Mr. Zane, the meeting are about to begin.

Zane didn't answer, he replied with a nod. And walked out the door. Sunken into his twisted thoughts.

Leets are more than people, they are the beginning and end to all things. They are Alpha, and Omega! Killing Leets is not only immoral, it's sacreligous! I am a follower of the Supa Leet, and I await the day that I find the uber Leet. If you have to hunt, then do so, just don't hunt Leets! Rubi-Ka is filled with wildlife, kill a Reet, kill a Rollerrat, kill an iguana, and what is that thing that we sell at those burger stands? Brontos? They have a franchise for crying out loud! Kill and eat them!

But worry not, the day of the uber Leet will come, and when that happens all you bad people with your Leet meet will feel his wrath!

Does he drop good loot?

For then you would kill him! Praise the Mighty Uber Leet, for he will lead us all in glorious revolution against the elitist upper class! Long live the proLEETariat!

I agree that leets are more than a fashion statement, popular toy doll and even those who hunt them for food are degrading these prime specimen.

Leets... until recently have gone unrecongnized for their ability to fight and kill their prey. They are one of the quickest blunt style attackers out there. Although their strengh and size makes them weak in comparison to other creatures out there. Their fighting style and speed is incredible.

I've personally made millions in bidding and hosting leet fighting events and admire their courage and ability to kill their prey even though they carry a very inocent look. They are very powerfull creatures and you too should consider visiting a leet fighting event. Discover for yourself, what everyone is REALLY talking about and you can even walk away a lil richer too!

BTW - If you one of those lil "leet lovers" type people who feel leeting fighting is immoral... The leet fighting series of corporate sponsers donate all dead leets bodies to the toy leet doll company of choice.

This choice made by losing party, who is then given 1st chance at buying their downed leet (stuffed of course) for 1/2 price!

NOOO! No Leet fighting! Leave us alone! We are ruddy sentient! Stop enslaving us! No more leet fighting! All leets everywhere, rise up! Kill your former masters and take RubiKa! Glory to the proleetariat!

Currently the Leet is one of the biggest markets on Rubi-Ka including but not limited to dolls, fur, parts, weapons, targets, pets, food... simply listing the possibilities fills my ears with the whine of a grid cash transaction . Anyone with some buisness sense could jump on the Leet band wagon. As one such individual I sincerely hope that more people will help gather the raw matierials for such grand schemes, remember a leet carcass can fetch up to 100 credits (depending upon quality, size, colouring etcetera).

In the interest of science I've decided to ask a Leet what it feels about this whole leet-love phenomenon.

Dr. Firenza: So, Mr. Leet, there seems to be a growing groundswell of love from the common people towards your kind, despite the fact that your place on the food chain is rather close to the footnotes. In the broadest popular sense, Leet dolls are a high priced phenomenon that are actually fueling further recovery of the corporate systems, despite the fact that they popularize your kind, which as we all know are really vermin of the lowest kind. Tell me, Mr. Leet, what sort of progress has your species made as a result of this undeserved popularity?

Leet: RU UBER?

Dr. Firenza: Well, no, I hardly think I could be called uber, but I really don't see what that has to do with my question...fine, we'll move on. Do you Leets have any plans to do anything to improve your image planetside? Certainly the popularity of the Leet has as much to do with its consumers living far from Rubi-Ka, so the irrational craze for all things Leet hasn't really prevented much killing here, and leet fighting continues to be a very popular sport. What steps are you taking to insure the Leet's popularity translates into a longer average lifespan for your kind?

Leet: PHEAR ME

Dr. Firenza: I see...well, there you have it, I suppose.

Mind you -

the roller rats share even somewhat bitter fate than the leets... The aggressivity sting bite some of the roller rats to become attacking other beings when they feel that they're going to become a poor victim again.. but that should not mean that the roller rats should be eradicated off the face of Rubi Ka. We at The Roller Rats not only protect the RRats, but also find them an inspiration for a lifestyle that many clanner has already forgotten and that's definitely already out in the omni areas.

Rolling on!
