The Bacon Lurker

Since it's Halloween, there's some information I thought I should share with everyone.

Back in the early years of NS, there existed a raider who would grief regions during updates. Of course, there were lots of raiders back then, but those that were familiar with him knew about his habit of eating bacon during his raids. This was before founders or delegates could eject nations out of their regions, so he would stay in that region until the mods would delete his nations.

Well, during one of the updates he chose one random region to grief, nothing out of the ordinary. But, that region wasn't filled with ordinary nations. When this raider began griefing, the citizens decided they were having none of that. They threw insults at this raider so terrible it would make your mother cry. The raider, tired of being ridiculed, chose to leave the region, but as soon as he pressed the move button an error occurred with the update mechanism. His nation suddenly disappeared without a trace. Some people believe he relocated to an empty space in NS. Who knows?

At least once a year, someone will report a sighting of a nonexistent nation griefing their RMB and demanding bacon. But when they refresh their window, those posts are erased. There have also been some related disappearances along with those sightings. Many of those cases remain unsolved. So, why am I telling you this now? You see, the original disappearance of the raider happened during Halloween. And the sightings, along with those unfortunate disappearances, also happen each year on Halloween. Those lucky enough to have seen this strange occurance and survived just so happened to have some bacon with them. That's why he's known as the Bacon Lurker. Because of his appetite for bacon... and death.

So, before you go to sleep tonight, be sure to leave some bacon outside your door, or you might wind up as the Bacon Lurker's next victim. Of course with the region under lockdown, there's no chance of that happening. Or is there? ;)

Have a happy Halloween, and stay safe out there!
