Objections to the April Fools Day prank.

[Violet]

Let it go gentlemen.

This has to be said, excuse me in my moment of weakness...

I LOVE YOU CINJIN!

And now we can get on with our lives...

I haven't been around long enough to know who Saerules is but I can believe I checked yes to whatever so fair enough. I have to say, I wouldn't want to do it but then I don't have any idea what it takes to maintain this forum as a place where a wide range of people can have at it.

She's the lady who's been so snarky to you. Said lady should've stuck around today and yesterday... you would have been awfully fun.

Anyway, my only care regarding private messages is that admins politely ask before looking. Not that it matters what their response is... but it'd be a nice heads-up.

Not that I use it for much more than chatting with Shelly outside facebook, seeking the rhythmness when he hasn't played in a while, and... actually I don't know what else

Not that anyone asked me for my opinion when they started discussing something involving me

Not that they needed to either...

NOT THAT THERE'S ANY NEED TO PANIC!

Reminds us that we're a family.

But... but...

That would make me incestuous...

Somehow I just can't see my siblings that way (I know them way too well to like them )

This would mean I would have to stop flirting with everyone...

NEVER, I say! WE SHALL NEVER BE FAMILY!

How is it a breach of trust when we tell people we do it when they sign up???

That's more than most forums tell you.

Regardless, we'll try to be more mindful.

And hugs, and kisses, and-wait...

EDIT: Btw, I'm just poking fun,
EDIT2: Can't believe I actually feel the need to clarify I'm poking fun.

Apparently we need to do that these days. :S

YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!!



Seriously... that would be like me pretending to be something I'm not, which is at the least dishonest... and who knows: I could be a perverted 50 year old sex robot.

I'm already an eccentric 18 year old sex goddess... it's really not much of a jump

And forever have I raised doubts in the lot of you. It must be my disarming personality at its finest (yet again).



I can't draw this out any further without being extremely obtuse.

What is an Upper Tier?

My lackeys. Oh, and mind: it is THE upper tier.

---

I haven't done this in ages. It must be the result of eating all of these saltine crackers. Serious cravings going on here... but it's just not right. I *need* honey, and I need it now.

Don't they say wisdom comes with age? A pity that seems to be the exception rather than the rule. Most older people seem to cling onto their presuppositions, despite the mounting evidence against them. In the pit, he can still do damage. I am trying to minimize damage here; there has been too much misinformation plastered about over the last few days, without people like whateverist adding to it.

Well they say funny things sometimes. By the way... are you the they in that's what they say?

They, them, their, thoom, thyme, thormpson, bananabat, me.

And I say very funny things usually... if you believe they are geniuses: I am Mozart back from the dead. Love me.

"eccentric 18 year old sex goddess"

That's literally the only thing I got out of Vaeolet's wall-o-text'n'quotes, but it was enough to merit kudos.

edit--- No, I re-read it, so now I also know "I am Mozart back from the dead. Love me." That's so going in my profile signature.

[Violet]

Too bad. Until the recent unpleasantness he had always struck me as one of our most thoughtful contributors.

Bothered me too that he went off the deep end.

Oh my... what you must think of me then

The only deeper end here, bless his babbling soul, is Rhizomorph

You have discovered the secret of my posts: post enough random things and eventually someone's going to like something I do.

Shameless plug: I'm open and free under most conditions. Better yet... I am fun and very experienced.

That's right: I WILL KILL ANYONE YOU HATE FOR FREE AT ANY TIME, WITH A FUCKING SMILE ON MY FACE!

Being who I am... let me just say this:

If you seek a fun, creative, unusual April 1st: you already know a volunteer who you can go to... and she isn't exactly out of reach

I'll keep that in mind.

I'll keep that in mind.

I'm sure that's the only place you'll be keeping that

But I'm not sure where the closest honey is... it's bothering me to bits. I've eaten through 2 things of saltines and yet I keep eating and craving them... and I'm stuffed

AA is making a good point about the pre-execution of the "April Fool's" prank. The entire point of such pranks is that they actually are contained to that one day.

I agree with that, Epi, but we just wanted to make it a lot bigger and better (hence we started earlier).

I think that especially the sock puppets One King, YahwehIsTheWay, and Niqabi Ninja (mine) made the most number of posts before April 1st. I agree that those of us who had those accounts kind of overdid the preparation. This was more of an execution than preparation, but I think it was partly composed of both because we saved the best ideas for April 1st. Atheist Anarchist, LittleMissAwesome, and Bueller, however, were used sparingly before the final day. And the Star Trek ones were created on the first day of April (which is the latest). So, I think those sock puppets were okay in that aspect of the prank.

The reason I posted a couple of threads before April 1st was because I wanted to let people know what kind of a personality and opinions that my sock puppet had. As some of you already know, I posted an intro thread and a few more topics with that account and, later on, I got the idea of pretending to leave the forum on April 1st after creating a last and final thread (which is this one). I was just going along with whatever ideas that were popping into my head. However, I thought that maybe I won't have too much time to make all those posts/threads in a single day, that's why I decided to spread it out, and post the most dramatic thread at the end (which is what I did).

Again, I admit that I was Poe-ing around too much before April 1st. Do I regret it? No.

Whatever happened, I still think it was a good prank and a lot of the members enjoyed it. Also, I tried to keep it humorous as much as possible and avoid preaching.

It must have been enlightening to assume an opposing position and see what it looks like from the other side. Was that what inspired Tibs's "leave it to the moderators" post?

No, fr0d0, that's not what inspired that post.

It was inspired by this thread, where pad's response was a little insulting to the newcomer and it seemed like he was chasing him away.
Instead of doing that, people should just report things like that to the staff, and then we will deal with those accordingly.

[fr0d0]

I have to keep checking that thread too just to check that it's real, it must have been April 1st somewhere when it was posted!

[Tiberius]

Just to clarify something, the April Fools Day joke was that all our sock accounts would go trolling on April 1st. They DID NOT do this before that date; they merely set up the scene for it.

Pranks take preparation. I didn't hear anyone complain to Google that the videos they released for April Fools were made before that date.

AA, if you've lost respect or trust in us, tough. You are not getting an apology for a prank. We will not apologise to people who lack a sense of humour. I have already offered to step down if that will appease people, and that offer still stands, but I will not apologise. We have done nothing wrong.
