From: Deira Llanfair I've seen them so rarely that I think they are probably an endangered species - probably no more that a couple of hundred left in the wild. I'd recommend giving the Linden a protected status and consider a captive breeding programme. I think we may have to be careful with that, they might resist capture and do themselves some damage.

And Trout, how could you?? I mean, you practically stepped on me on your way out of camp! Nobody wants me! Ima go over to the negative thread and pout! *stomps off* /me comes back and gets her tranq gun just in case there's a Linden ambush between this thread and that ... ok, unlikely given that they're never in the forums ... but still ... maybe I can convert it to shoot snowballs!

A cut out?

I'd recommend giving the Linden a protected status and consider a captive breeding programme. LOL!!! OH and I forgot to say, (and this really happened too...honest) One time on Rasta Island (where I hang out ladies) I saw what I thought was one of the Lindens standing there with his name above him and everything... At that point I (finally realizing who the Lindens were) approached this Linden dude and said "Hey what's up?" and he kept on standing there like he was suffering from lag. So I walked around him, and lo and behold, it was just a cut out! I was talking to a CUT OUT!!! It was cleverly done to include his name over his head...boy was I fooled!

From: Claire Silverspar I think we may have to be careful with that, they might resist capture and do themselves some damage. It'll be ok - Trout has a tranq gun - he can dart them...and we can ask Brenda to transport them with her helicopter - in a net, like they transport polar bears. If there isn't enough room at the Forum Hangpout for a breeding enclosure, I can find room for one at Crameri. We can ask WSPA for support too.

My way is better. We'll get bug fixes and features we actually want. Plus, way more fun.

Plus, way more fun. Not everyone's idea of fun tho...with whips and the like... My mummy always told me that you catch more flies with honey than vinegar - though why you would want to catch flies is beyond me. And then she also used to say treat em mean keep em keen so im lost. *shrugs* I'm gonna give up being pro linden... do what you want - they almost killed Nika.

Two, Brenda's on assignment .. op ... er .. vacation! .. yeah! that's what she's calling it .. vacation ... ..so someone has to handle the tranq gun while Trout flies the biplane. /me goes for a lie down.

From: Trout Recreant From the blotter.
Well, I think there should be some sort of regulated season - for example, when the Lindens are in rut, we need to leave them be. It's nature's way, after all. But other times of year, it shoul be ok to shoot one. We could open up the bow hunting season first, then the muzzle loaders, and finally the rest of the rifle/machine gun/howitzer folks could blast away at what's left. I really think that LL could make some dough by selling Linden tags. K I shot me a Linden, where do I collect my bounty?

From: Claire Silverspar  bilbo! Do you think we can trust Chris with the gun? Apparently Chris' house is full of guns, is surrounded by razorwire, vicious dogs, and a moat with alligators in it. I'm sure he'd be okay with a lil' tranq gun. A Linden breeding pen, ROFL. I can just imagine us all sitting around playing "Greedy Greedy" and glancing over idly while a couple of Lindens use the pink and blue poseballs...

I can see it now.. they'd unlink them somehow and one would be humping the fence as the other is looking around confusedly...

I think he has. He's probably just giving us a little slack and letting us have some fun.
Actually, since a Linden actually posted in the thread on the new Search, I feel bad about talking about hunting them. I really have to give them kudos for looking for input on a feature. So if any of them happen to read this, I hope they understand that we're just goofing on them a little. Besides, Trouts don't eats no Lindens! Trouts eats bugz!

From: Trout Recreant ...Trouts don't eats no Lindens! Trouts eats bugz! I did wonder why you flew with your mouth open. I thought it was merely a scream of terror that was drowned out by the engine noise, but I guess it was just a case of the munchies.

Anyway, we've moved beyond hunting Lindens (who ever said anything about eating them? Ewwww!) to breeding them in captivity in an effort to repopulate the species.
