Willias: Warriors go to Ysgard!
Palador: You're weird, but in quiet sort of way, so you must go to Pandemonium, where it is very loud.
nem-x: You were made for Limbo, freak.
Aury: As another unnatural perversion, you go to the Abyss, to the layer of the Great Mother, Queen of Beholders.
Trent: Stupid goths go to Hades!
Tegadil: You and nem-x get to be travel buddies on the way to the crazy go-nuts plane of Limbo.
Nwist: To the refuse heap of the Outlands with you.
Za'afiel: You can piggyback on Nwist to the Outlands.
Ja`Deth: I banish you to the Demiplane of Shadow, a huge area of nothingness, where NOBODY will listen to your essays! And the only things that might will eat you afterwards! Mwahahaha!
Vorago: For your whining about your job, you will toil on the Battlefields of Acheron for eternity.
Jargum: Refuse Heap.
OtakuPenguin: For a life led without hatred and pain, you get to go to Elysium. Enjoy.
Katrinity: I banish thee to the Beastlands with Pvednes. I hope a tortoise eats you.

Iron Parcelan was listening to Cher while typing:
Death of Rats: Harmless and odd as you are, I banish you to frolick in Bytopia with the rest of the misfits.
So I'm basicly staying here?
Zephyer: Because you are prone to excess, I banish you to be punished by Baalzebul, the indulgent lord of the Seventh Layer of Baator.
Gobog: You are the stooge that thinks he's a warrior, Acheron will beat these foolish notions out of you.
Kinanik: Bytopia is where foolish, but good-natured, ragamoffyns like you belong.
Gadani: Since you see fit to question my judgement, I banish you to Pandemonium, it will eventually drive you crazy enough not to question anything.
Khyron: Your anger is your downfall, for it is what sends you to Acheron to expend your anger for eternity.

Lots of hollow massive geometric metal shapes where the orc, hobgoblin, and goblin gods wage war eternally. The assorted cubes and such clash against one another, sometimes flattening entire petitioner armies too feverishly locked in battle to retreat and live to fight another day.
Some layers are veritable whirlwinds of vicious metal blades that are like vorpal swords flying every which-way.
Some of the hollow geometric spheres, cubes, and such have the slowly-decaying and petrifying remains of war machines from a million prime material planes, which some foolish mortal treasure hunters occasionally seek to steal for their own personal use.
Not a happy place.

Ja'Deth Issar Ka'bael impressed everyone with:

So, then, were one to find, salvage, and reactivate the remains of these war machines, they could use them to randomly destroy orcs, goblins, and hobgoblins?
But yeah, assuming you knew what you were looking for, knew how to fix it and were able to do so fast, you could probably salvage something and go after the petitioners. Not that it does much good. Kill a petitioner and the spirit stuff either merges with the plane or returns as another petitioner.

The entire point of Acheron is that it's a war without winners. The cycle of violence continues forever.
Not happy. All war, all the time, pointless (unlike the Blood War), and endless.

Ozimander: You are an oddity. Some say you would belong on Bytopia, and I agree. Off to Misfit Land with you.
The Blood War isn't pointless, I guess, but it is endless. Neither side will be happy until the other is exterminated, and that's not likely to happen.

Iron Parcelan had this to say about Robocop:
The Blood War isn't pointless, I guess, but it is endless. Neither side will be happy until the other is exterminated, and that's not likely to happen.
I think the Blood War is, ironically, one of the only wars that serves an ongoing purpose. Philosophically, it represents the unending inability of the fiends to work together, the conflict of ideals on the planes, etc. In a more real way, it limits the amount of attention the fiends can give other planes, other foes, and the prime material. While every plane is limitless, and therefore the number of entities in it are also similarly limitless, it's generally agreed that the number of fiends is a bigger "limitless" than the "limitless" number of celestials, for instance. So the Blood War has a purpose...whereas the conflicts of Acheron generally engage as wars for the sake of war...least that's how I read it.

One layer is nice and sweet and pleasant. The other is dark and savage and dangerous.
It's technically an Upper Plane (meaning good) but it has its bad side.

ACES! Another post by Ja'Deth Issar Ka'bael:
Oh and the Evil half is like the diet coke of evil. The real bastards go elsewhere.
There's a difference between dangerous and evil.
Evil is Baator, Gehenna, Hades and the Abyss. Danger is the Beastlands, the Dark Bytopia, and places like that. You can get killed, but you won't lose your soul like you would in an evil place.
All the planes are dangerous. Ysgard is a dangerous place, even to the good inhabitants. Try explaining to someone why the Einherjar go to war every day, dismember each other, then get up the next day to get drunk and fight again. Pretty savage.
The difference is that, at least is how I read it, Bytopia is to some extent supposed to represent the duality of the nature of sentient creatures. On one hand, you can live a blameless, hard-working, honest and creative lifestyle, but deep down everyone's got a dark side that's a little feral, a little dangerous. But on the whole it's a Good thing (hence the fact it's technically an Upper Plane).
I could be wrong though.

That's okay. That there describes 90% of all FPS deathmatches
Only I'm assuming it has slightly... older weapons.
Oooo misfit land! It sounds kool./.. or limbo...

MorbId: It's Limbo for you, fucker.
There's only one way to find out, isn't there?
Limbo's the plane of utter chaos, if I remember right, so there'll still be plenty to do once making fun of the name gets tedious.
Under capitalism, man exploits man. Under communism, it's just the opposite. - John Kenneth Galbraith
Tarquinn: Foolish people with foolish political ideals go to Baator, where there is no argument about politics! Politics are LIFE!
RedMage: I don't like you and you're a freak, so you go to Limbo.
Arttemis: It's Ysgard for you, so that you may finally fight back all for all those times you have been trod underfoot.
Goma: Once again, it's Ysgard, but you will be Snoota's punching bag.
Synny: You must work hard to banish the bitterness in your heart, so I send you to Arcadia.
Karnaj: AND NOW YOU WILL GO TO THE LOWEST LEVEL OF THE ABYSS!
