"This forum has been shut down due to abuse..."

.... *looks around* LOL man why is evenone making a big deal about the forum being down for a day.... its just a day... besides ...I really didnt have much time to worry about it seeing how I had to install a 300GB Harddrive, DVD Burnner, 256MB Video Card and More ram into my computer... now the only thing I did visit more then ten times today was Saito-Raws.... I have been waiting for Beast 25 to show up :3 and I guesses that Ryo must have been ether busy or she hasn't downloaded the episode all the way yet... . . . . (dont worry Ryo I'll be patient)

BTW is was funny... "the forum has been shut down due to it being Abused.. Im talking to your XHunter17" I think thats how it went XD

can someone fill me in on last years April Fools?

**Ryouko** · Posted: Sat Apr 01, 2006 9:31 pm Post subject:

I think last year Pyo put in a ton of word filters, so everyone's text was garbled into stupidity. If I remember correctly, that pissed more people off than what we did today. :P

As for Beast 25, it's now downloading. I was away all day working on my senior exhibition with DeadlySerenade.

And believe or not, I didn't even know it was April 1st till a couple of hours ago. ^_^

Edit: I even sent you an e-mail.... whoops, I feel stupid now.

Holly, this really got me Laughing

I've been pranked twice now (well it's my first time getting jokes in forums so it's kind of a new thing, you don't see this everyday you know Laughing

) I've even send Ryouko an e-mail telling her that something was wrong with the login thing (sorry about that ^^ Wink

. Wow that was a good one, and the last year joke sounds even funnier. Really funny guys ^^.

I used the forum word filters to change the place into n00b-speak. "you" became "u". "To" and "too" became "2". "Your" and "You're" became "ur". And so on.

People absolutely hated it, which means it worked. :) I think the fanfic writers and readers were the ones who suffered the most.

I'm pretty sure '04 is when we debuted "NT Warrior Online" with AOL l33t speak as the text.

I knew it was a joke ever since this morning XD

Although it started to piss me off later on. Kind of hilarious though.

Hah, I thought it was funny. Didn't piss me off in the slightest, although I'll admit it scared me a bit at first. -_-;

Yeah, last year's reaction was far more explosive. XD Some people just can't take a joke.

Mm, I didn't find it quite amusing, but of course, not many April Fool's jokes are enjoyable for the victim. It's kind of funny seeing everyone getting so stressed/angry about it, though. I have to admit, it was somewhat annoying, but it was nothing major. Glad to have the forum back.

This scared the living @#$! out of me. I was like "What the hell did I do?" And Sketch in the #REO IRC was all "What did you do!? What did you do!?" Then popped up "what's today's date?" ....then i was like "oh...d'uh!"

I have to admit...that was nice. ^_^

XD I was expecting some odd April Fool's joke, so I just laughed. How long did it take to php it?

For a second, i thought i was being banned for something... but i had a feeling that it was an april fool's joke.
Not exactly funny, but it kinda was predictable.
