Has anybody considered the fact that, this thread itself, may be an April Fools prank? Meta. :teehee:

Or is it?

It is an odd opinion. Asking if people should be suspended for something they did on the silliest day of the year. It may not be, but you never know. :ph34r:

Exactly.

Your face might be a giant prank, and you would probably say no, it's just your face,
But...is it?

Meh, the Bloodthirster exhibit is a much more interesting way to get injured.

Two years ago. It unfortunately coincided with the mod's prank of switching avatars amongst ourselves which was soundly defeated by the surge of Rohughs. I also went through and switched thread subject lines in CD which was terribly fun but took ages to process and then fix afterward.

Last year we were all 'removed' and a new group of mods was added (which were obviously alts but some too a while for the community to identify).

You were the first to be found out as I recall. Maybe it's your status as the "cool" moderator that makes you easily recognizable.

You all tried to act like the others, but it seems that many of you didn't do to good of a job, however, some of you had us convinced that multiple mods were actually Rohugh. :biggrin:

KILL THE UNBELIEVERS!!!

If it is wrong to believe that bigfoot found love by marrying an interplanetary hybrid half alien, half human, half fish creature then so be it. :P

Speaking seriously I just ignore it to be honest and just let it be. Not really going to be upset about that stuff unless it gets REALLY out of hand. One thing would be saying there's a legitimate news article then linking to a pr0n site that gives a person a virus on their computer. That's when I would say a suspension is inorder or possible perma banning.

It looks like a lot of indie developers with games on Steam are updating their games with potato related stuff, with suspicious changelogs. :rofl:

Updates to Super Meat Boy have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:
Bugs
Difficulty decreased on harder levels
Better Ammo
Happy #PotatoFoolsDay

Super Meat Boy is now a potato. (But, the update actually adds the long awaited online map sharing feature too)

Amnesia was updated too, I'm too scared to look. :P

I have to say this must be the most disappointing April Fool's Day I've ever experienced. I need chaos and anarchy! :sadvaultboy:

I like the false news articles. I remember two years ago reading one about people who contracted the swine flu were dying and then coming back to life with zombie like traits. (It was on this forum if memory serves) I got a good kick out of that....

It's been a big non event this year, at least last year all the mods quit at the same time :celebration: Well there's always next year.

Yeah, that still disappoints me. If I remember correctly I tried to act like someone acting like me . . . whatever it was I thought I was being clever and then fell flat on my face.
