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.

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.
I'm just kindda glad I can stop pretending I'm drunk tanked now :D
Should have carried on with this, and started banning people left and right for slagging off FF.
I agree with MILF completely. This should have turned into a giant banfest.
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".
It wasn't till the end where I was like "ehhhhhhhh well it's after april first and they are still talking about it... mehbee it's got some shred of truth to it?"
I personally feel like I had you all fooled, kind of like an inception style prank where I was the crazy lady in the underworld.
I have to say, having you (Michael) on board made this a hell of a lot more fun than it would have otherwise been. Thanks, man. :up:
I do not appreciate the lies and trickery that was employed during this whole event. I demand a refund.
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:
Isn't it about time you put the sub-forums back in the proper order?
Not likely to happen. Not even a goddamn petition would fix it, I reckons.
:mad2:
There, I put them back in order. Be sure to remember that when you vote for Rantzien for best admin for the 20th god damn time :argh:
Also HAHAHAHA oh man you guys Raistlin totally fell for it! We totally SLAM-DUNKED that PUNK right through the god damn SPACE TIME CONTINUUM all the way back to 1582! THAT'S HOW HARD WE PRANKED HIM! utter gold! SHEER PLATINUM! MMMM DING DING DING RAISTLIIIIIIIIIIIN YOU GOT SMOTHERED IN DUMPLINGS AND THEN BASTED, SON!!!!!!!!
I admire everyones commitment to the prank but can I get a big fat whatever from the crowd please :p :lol: :bigsmile:
Oh good, because Square-Enix sucks.
You guys got me, good job.
No lie, I actually considered this possibility
Looks like PSY enjoys invalidating my posts. Listen up do-gooder-dodson, I will write you angry visitor messages if you aren't careful :argh:
I'm not gonna lie, it's just an excuse to use that very beautiful smiley
Wow, I hate to say I told you so but I called this one before April first, see.Quote:
I bet this is an April Fool's joke by the owners, those couple of pranksters.
Does that make me smarter than all of you? Yes, yes it does.
I like how Michael joined in the prank. :bigsmile:

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.
Oh good.
Yeah, irrespective of the fact it's a prank, I wasn't joking about the FFV forum description. :p
The forum descriptions are in the works to be changed for SEO. The old ones had their run and it's time for a change. But we'll try to work in the FFV pimp comment just for you, Heath.
:heart:
Why do the executives almost never show up?
Because they're Executives!
I have to admit, I was convinced bits and pieces of the sale were true, I even believed the new "rule" for the most part. I was thinking "eh I joined at the perfect time didn't I?"
It was a good prank, well done. Ima go crawl in a corner and cry myself to sleep now.
:G
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.
I knew all along :bigsmile:. Yes I was acting like I totally fell for it.
Good to know my paranoia paid off, I smurfing told you I had a bad feeling. Little did I know it was just a bad prank in the works. :p
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)
but he's insane
Also he speaks English retardedly.
He's not even been here for a few days, I think you bastards got rid of him. Whose posts will we ridicule now?!
Yours.
smurf
He's been here yesterday actually. :p
Haven't seen him post :monster:
I'm okay with that.
Let's not slag off other members, thanks. No more of it.
I was wondering how long you'd let this carry on.
Attention, it is now april, and I have yet to receive my clown in teh mail. The name of this holiday is very deceptive, I thought I gets one free clown!
*mew*
That's the prank
Spirit is on right now, pm him and convince him to come back
Making fun of someone with terribly low self esteem in public in that way is not right. Those posts should probably be removed.
guys, somethings going with him, I'm worried. Look at shiny and his profiles. He's hiding her messeges, and when I PM'd him he immediatly logged off. This may require an intervention of some sort
I forgot to do a background check on the guy before I read his insane ramblings then commented. That was my bad.
...lmmfao
This is why we can't have nice things.
Happy Halloween! :)
