Road Less Traveled

A Road Less Traveled is an English-speaking chat room on Kongregate.

"Welcome," the sign reads. You walk down the path, the sound of leaves crunching beneath your feet. You skirt the lake of fire and ice, you hang a left at the mended wall, and you don't stop till you've cleared the deep, dark woods.

Before you are two paths: one grassy and well-traveled, the other obscured by the shadows of the trees. The path you choose will determine how many footsteps you have left. Don't look down and don't deliberate; simply allow your heart to make the choice for you.

If you're still here, you've taken the road less-traveled.

thiswasnttaken - Taken isn't to be confused with a teddy bear, no matter how similar he is to one. His username wasn't taken.

WeirdJedi - WeirdJedi isn't active in the chat very often, and when he is, he isn't for very long. However, if you can get him to stay for a while, you'll certainly be able to strike up a good conversation with him. He's positive and a big kid at heart. He's also a die-hard badge hunter! He'll be rank 65 sooner than we all think!

Arcticfenris - By day, Arctic is just an average loser, But by night, he is an average loser but it is nighttime.

BartK1  Bart (Seph is his real name) is a really weird guy. He gets angry for no reason and hates when people call him Bark cause they forget the T. Seph likes video games (don't mention Sonic or Pokemon and you're fine) and also likes drinking sometimes. Also worships weird things like, c heese balls, vodka, bread, bacon, NES, SNES, Gamecube and sleep. Seph also ADORES music, (mention 8-bit, Persona, Daft Punk or a bit of heavy metal and he'll adore you). Another thing, don't call Seph Bark... I beg of you... please. - " Bart is awesome, epic and a great friend" ~TheLostAura

Chidori602- Chidori is a huge My Little Pony fan. A fair word of warning: don't say anything bad about the show when he's around. He's had countless alts, most of them ending in "602". These alts are banned frequently, but his current alt account is CrimsonBrony. He is considered a troll by many of the regulars. If you cant find him in those two accounts you will most likely find him using Sasuke602, CforChidori, CforCrimson,Purely Sickness or Sultan RS.

EkoBegins - Eko is one of the nicer people of the room, greeting almost everyone in the room, but don't let her nice attitude put you off! She is a major troll who loves to cause confusion. Even though Eko is a major troll, she is a great friend to have, and will work hard to protect her reputation as such.

IfOnlyIf -

Kwll  - One of the oddest creatures known to humanity is called Kwll. Kwll is genderless and loves to run amok in chat! It knows more than it ever lets you know, is oft capable of out-smarting others, and is known for being a very private person.

LordRoachMan - The lord of roaches lurks this chat room from the shadows.

LoveThyBlade - Blade is also know as DRapper300.

Monster112 - Monster is one of the nicest and most cool-headed guys around, and will do almost anything to help others. He is also a major metalhead who will head-bang to any good metal song. He does poetry and writing, as well.

SilverChannel - Silver has been a regular since September 14th, 2012! He's one of the most talkative regulars currently, and really enjoys his time while talking to us. He can relate to almost anything. He's an experienced guy and a person who loves sharing his thoughts with the people closest to him!

SirNo0b -

Spencer22 - Spencer is probably the biggest man-child you'll ever meet! He comes off as trollish at first, but is a good guy once you get to know him. Spence is known for being the worst speller in the land. It does him no justice considering how smart he is!

TheAtomicBomb - Atomic is an old Echo Hall veteran, and met VforVendetta during his time in the Hall. At some point, the Hall fell, causing Atomic to move to Hourglass, where V was residing. He was happy for a few months with the new friends he met there, but has slowly stopped coming to the chatroom.

TheGorramBatman - Batman is many things: detective, teacher, scientist, Sexy granny, madman, visionary, dog, tree, living statue, the list goes on for pages. But there is one thing he most certainly is not, and that is a Martian robot sent from the future to ensure the success of an upcoming invasion. You know it's true, because it's on the internet.

TheLostAura - Aura is a very friendly person, he is very easy to get along with, don't get on the wrong side of him though because he never backs down! He can be very random at times also loves music! He has a passion for games and soon hopes to become a game developer. However he can be quite aggresive at times but overall he is a very nice person! 'He's an epic friend and very fun to talk to.' ~BartK1

Previous Moderators
Gryljams - Gryljams was the room owner when the room went by the name Crabblesteen Winklepop. Unfortunately he left Kong.

UnknownGuardian  - UG is a former room moderator. He's a very talented programmer, and can often be found in the chat room for his Game Development Room (GDR).

VforVendetta  - He was the room owner while the room's name was Absolute Absurdity, and then Hourglass. He is a fan of The Walking Dead, and (obviously) V for Vendetta. He's a very amiable guy and a great friend to have.

Crabblesteen Winklepop
Gryljams created Crabblesteen Winklepop in 2009. Following its creation, it remained dead much of the time. This led to Gryljams' departure from the room in 2011. It remained ownerless for several months. Eventually, VforVendetta and a few other users attempted to revive the room. It worked to some degree, so V was made the room owner, and shortly decided to change the room's name.

Absolute Absurdity
Once V took ownership of the room, its name was changed to Absolute Absurdity. There are still some regulars who remember the room when it was named this. If you ask around, they may reminisce about the good old days. As it was near the top of the list of chat rooms, it was frequented by trolls. Fortunately, UnknownGuardian and VforVendetta were often around to moderate. Even when they weren't around, though, the room was a great place to be. There were many active regulars who would have lengthy conversations about almost anything! If you were willing to dive in, you would be welcomed by everyone there, and would feel right at home. True to its name, there wasn't much sanity to be found in this room, yet somehow it was easy to follow the chat. This was a great room for newcomers, and some of these newcomers eventually became regulars!

Hourglass
There came a time when the population of trolls in the room grew to a level difficult for the moderators to manage. As such, V decided it would be best to change the room's name to something that wouldn't place it at the top of the list. The regulars in the room voted on it, and the selected name was "Hourglass". Many people were unhappy about the change, and some even left the room altogether. The room saw a sharp decline in activity, and some of the more active users grew silent. While the room's name was Hourglass, UnknownGuardian stepped down from moderator duty and the only moderator left was VforVendetta. There was much push for the nomination of a new room moderator. Alas, the process is very lengthy and difficult, so the room was left with but one moderator for a long time. Eventually, however, Mateo4 was made a moderator. Shortly after, V left to attempt to revive another chat room, and Mateo became the room's new owner.
