Hope everyone 'enjoyed' the April Fools prank. No sale is occurring. My hooker/cocaine addiction is well under control, especially as long as the Denver Nuggets continue to beat the spread.

All Your Base Still Are Belong To Us.

There may be no sale, but I still demand giveaways and free stuff :colbert:

Goddammit, I was just getting my plans together for a pretend freakout and thread-making spree over the "new rule" in the last announcement (I was talking to rubah about this just earlier tonight). Given the response in the sale thread, I imagine I would've had a lot of unwitting support too.

I originally thought that some sort of sale was real and it was announced on 4/1 just to make it look like a prank. But the latest announcement made it pretty obvious. Still, I was expecting you guys to give us a few days to argue about it.

Also, kudos for going outside of the narrow 4/1 deadline. Pranks aren't nearly as fun on a day when everyone suspects everything to be a prank.

Heh. Good effort, that was pretty convincing. A possible ownership change didn't worry me particularly, since previous change-overs never hurt the core of what this forum's all about, but I was genuinely starting to believe the place had actually been bought up by Square-Enix somehow.

Count another one for this. That would pretty much be the best prank ever.

As it is, it was lame.

For April Fools I told my intermediate and extended family that I would stop whipping my hair back and forth. I told them I would adopt the new style of "Whipping To and Fro".

Well I think that was a job well done, I was convinced a sale was occurring. Glad those hookers haven't robbed you blind yet!

Still, I was just getting my :bou::bou::bou::bou: together to start slagging off every S-E game I could name to force a ban on myself. Ah well, looks like I'm stuck here :argh:

I never gave a flying smurf about any sale or non sale so this joke just flew straight passed me. I was actually hoping that the april fools joke would be announced as being the member 'spirit', the fact that he is a real person who really has those thoughts is very very upsetting.

Well done though.

Would you be upset if I bought the forum and changed everyone's avatar to a justin beiber pic and changed everyone's name to their IP address and made everyone's sig a link to lemonparty?

Also, I was expecting the April Fools joke to involve spirit also, how weird is that? I was expecting a suicide thread or something followed by the revelation that spirit is really Dr. Unne or something.

Between golfing with the bigwigs of Fortune 500 companies, flying to private islands in their private jets with a private crew, and overseeing the destruction of small nations, executives hardly have the time to show up on an internet forum about a video game that is no longer relevant.

That is still validating his existence. The irony will be lost on him & it will be more validation for him to continue being 'approach with cautionable'. Right up until someone dies.

Way to ignore my point. I'm saying he's the best poster - makes an argument, provides arguments for his point, then argues against people who try to usurp his view

or we can go back to posts about how my gf disrespects me and I'm too much of a love/sex struck loon to break up (oh wait that's me)
