    While I think people are going to start thinking about our previous April Fools where something similar happened and catch on by the time we have only ten staff left (which is well before April 1st, I imagine), this will be amusing if only to see if they can figure out which staffer started the joke, because so many have already left.

    Ehehe, I thought that too. Who's coming back on April 1st/2nd and who really left? xD

    I agree that it would be more realistic if only the most popular people left and there were some mean Livejournal entries about it or something because only a child would be fooled by the fact that everyone is nearly gone by April 1. I mean, if you really want to fool them.
    I believe in the power of humanity.

    I created a "Cid's Knights - Invisible" usergroup. Now you look like Former Staff but you can still moderate! If I did it right...

    Also created an "Administrators - Invisible" group. Someone with more usergroup experience should probably take a look at these, too, just to be sure. Not sure how Admin permissions and stuff works, for example.

    That was 5 years ago. How much of the active userbase now was around back then?

    And if some of us are paring up it would make sense for them to be like

    Of course a lot of them will know what's up. Anything out of the ordinary happening within 3 months of April arouses the suspicion of most of them.

    But this is a chance to poke fun at ourselves as well as confuse them as to what's real and what's part of the joke.

    I don't think I'm going to use it though. I imagine the "Last Activity" bit on the profile will still get updated. I'll just stick to this account :mog:

    Is it going to be hard keeping this from MILF? I'm guessing he would be one of the first to think something fishy is up.

    I don't think he will, if only because he doesn't use the internet much lately because of his work in his master's course (he has to start his dissertation research soon), and because it's perpetually going down at his place. For what it's worth, he told me the other day that he liked Lightening, so he must not have figured any resemblances out yet. xD

    One thing I'm confused about; we'll still be allowed to post and stuff during this right? We're just going to look like Former Staff? Or we're not allowed to post at all?

    Just post as normal. The only thing that will change is the title below your name.
