Objections to the April Fools Day prank.

[Tiberius]

The central issue I think is that there were perhaps, consciously, or subconsciously, some passive-aggressive nature to some of the "characters" created, which can be perceived as a personal affront.
It doesn't MATTER if it was intentional or not, but there was a failure to understand how a couple of these caricatures would be perceived by others.

Did you read my quotes? I was well aware there might be a personal front, which was why I didn't reply to rev's PM, or confront him personally. We weren't out to troll anyone in particular; that wouldn't have been funny.

I intentionally crafted AA so that he was a complete moron, and would be annoying to everyone, regardless of political beliefs (and as rev pointed out earlier, whilst he initially liked him, he quickly realized he was an idiot).
