Looking for someone to help me iron out some creases and help me with story/plot ideas at specific areas for the third installment of my fic. Anyone interested in helping me out?

The General said he was an Operating System, probably replaced in function of regulation by The Oracle's system of choice, which would explain why he hates her so much.

Haha, I can see it now: The General: You there, human. What is your profession? Redpill: I'm a hacker. The General: Okay. And you there, Machinist. What is your profession? Redpill: I'm a coder. The General: A coder... and you? Redpill: I'...

No offense, but you have gotta learn punctuation and how to space out your messages man, I tried to read that and I couldn't bare it.

(Epilogue concluded) In the Matrix, Janus lay there motionless. In the dying thoughts of his mind, he recalled his thoughts, like a person who was half asleep, in the limbo between the dream world and the waking world. Irvine's voice echoe...

(Epilogue cont'd) With that, a look of fear came over the Agent's face. Janus turned, and smashed him into the wall he was just being pressed up against, creating a "dent" in the bricks in the same fashion Janus's body had done to the oppo...

No, the person's mind, that is, the part of you that is you (not your brain, but housed inside of it so to speak - think Descartes here) is transformed/reformatted into a program/avatar and then uploaded into the Matrix or Construct.

I miss the good old days before the cinematics were replaced by black/white comics. What was the reason for the switch?

Haha, yeah, they're the Twins. I didn't explicitly state it because I wrote them out mysterious and ambiguous on purpose since that's how they'd seem to the Nemesis crew, who's never made contact with or seen them before. They'll be around...

Alright you ruined any use of the "Being the better man" card by stating your edit was to drop it @_@ And I know it killed to delete that whole post just to change it to what's there, too. Anyway, yeah, as I was saying: Morpheus refused to...
