In this system, the Cables operate like sparx in Qix: they descend on stagnant posters like wolves, and constantly drop traps for the dopey and naive. At the very least, they will drive you into the blackness where the Qix (all the other incredibly hostile posters) moves darkly.
I'm sorry, but learning to deal with the Cables is an important part of finding one's place in the ecosystem here. To remove them would not only damage the basic structure of Caltrops ("Liberace, egalite, fraternite") but also denude us of a precious front-line defense. Can't be done!
I think you have this backwards. The Cables are the Qix; everyone else tries to carve out niches of actual content. Also like the Qix, they pretty much set the tone. The Qix is hostile and alien, but seems oddly lifelike. The Qix is the defining aesthetic and strategic parameter of the game, but you cannot interact with the Qix except by avoiding it. Nothing you do affects the Qix.
Also I'm not sure there really are hordes of feckless morons out there clamouring for noble Caltrops blood. Really? If the Cables died of CO poisoning tomorrow, would half of Q23 be on here shitposting the next day? I kind of doubt it.
