The eNL Playground

Day 2,804, 13:45 • Published in Netherlands Netherlands • by NoTie112

''Go away,'' said Odan ''go away, I'm older than you!''. Before the kid could reply, Odan pushed him from the swing and dragged the kid's face through the dirt. Odan took a seat on the swing and smiled. Once again the playground was his and his only. Deluded, he announced a paranoid statement as ''Chairman'' of the playground, only heard by the few that were allowed in his territory. If they even could hear him, that is. The last time Djirtsdew or Fhaemita had sound hearing capabilities was decades ago. The seniors would regularly try to go down the slide, only to complain about pain and their loss of youth. Afterwards they would harass newcomers out of envy. Fhaemita took the swing next to Odan. Its seat was smaller and decorated with an awful handwriting saying ''dCoC''.

Other adults were worried about the situation on the playground. What were all these old men doing there? Why did they harass specifically the youngest children? Even within the seniors there was worry about this unhealthy behavior. Some actually behaved their age and left the playground, like Auggustus and Garmr. Instead of keeping the playground populated with new kids to replace this loss, the remaining elderly had staunchly oppressed the others kids even more.

Van Spijck was yelled at when he kept occupying the slide for over a year and was consequently thrown in the ditch (only for him to swim to the other side and taking the slide in another playground). Zeeuwsmeisje played with kids from a Norwegian playground just once and was consequently almost stoned to death. ElGorro - the monkey suffering from fear of heights - was put on top of the climbing rack and was a mere statue now, while symbolically dubbed ''Dictator''. Man's best friend, the astray pit-bull Legendardisch - who had found a home with the elderly once upon a time - grew too conscious and was abandoned.

Aries Prime, who had humbly requested re-entry to the playground after serving as its President, was deported to Canada. Kordak, one of the most playful and active kids, was given a try to fit in with the seniors, but was backstabbed by the seniors when a supposedly friendly match of playing tag with some German seniors was going on. Weekstrom was yelled at so many times, that he just decided to leave himself and do something useful (organizing the defense of the playground).

But they had finally succeeded. The Dutch playground was almost empty! With the easy victims rounded up, they went after former friends - who became dangerly close to occupying the slide and the swing. Odan tried to invite some Germans on the playground out of pure necessity in an opportunistic trade for some territory, but they were rooted out by the few remaining Dutch kids on the playground. Perhaps miscalculated by Odan, there were still sane kids left despite the years of bullying who stood up! When those fellow kids, like Walhallah & Gen. de La Rey, were caught in an unfair fights against some German bullies, Odan carelessly decided to join the Germans and beat up the Dutch.

A few weeks then passed. The mission had almost succeeded. Never before were there so few kids left on the Dutch playground. Just 250 souls left, most of who were busy digging holes in the sand of the playground - supposedly digging their graves to a certain death already. ElGorro, in his uncomfortable position on top of the climbing rack, tried to get some dead (and perhaps friendly) seniors back, but that didn't prove to be enough. Unsuspectingly though, the remaining kids had enough of Odan occupying the swings and democratically decided to push him a little too hard. Arcanic Mindje had tried to stop his fall, but didn't prove to be strong enough to catch Odan and put him back on the swing.

Odan and Fhaemita and some of the few supporters retreated (as fast as their old bodies allowed them) to the skip and thought of another shenanigan to pull off. They tricked the new guy on the swings, Secret Live, to join them in a devious game. They dared him to jump from a small hill that was located in the playground and promised to catch him. Despite this promise, Fhaemita purposely refused to catch him and laughed when he had taken a steep fall on the stones. ''He will leave himself now'' Odan smirked. Fheamita wanted to reply to him, reminding him of the good old days, but the seniors were interrupted by some other kids who were all witnessed the bullying. Djirtsdew tried to diplomatically cover-up why the had to bully the guy, but it didn't matter. The seniors limped away from the playground before they would have to admit their responsibility. Djirtsdew switches clothes and is mixing with the kids again, Fhaemita has found temporary refugee in the eUSA. And Odan.. was crying about ''his'' beloved swing being taken.

You've been bad boys. Say ''no'' to bullying new players in the eNetherlands. =[

Please note that is a parody of a very serious problem in our country. Some call it elitism, some like to close their eyes for it.
