No offense, but that was the crappiest April Fool's Day joke ever. It wasn't funny, it was entirely believable (thus, making us less fools and more people that have been lied to), and it was executed on March 31st EST when the OP is (according to profile) in NY. It would be a real joke if it turns out that the changes are in fact real (seeing as the OP edit took place on April 1st).

Now I am wondering when the real switch is, if ever, and what the real changes are. Yes, I care too much, and Why the heck I care so much, I don't know.

Thanks a lot, DrEvilPizza :disgust:









:p

So if this were to happen, which it won't, but if it will, would you really reset RossMAN's post count?

And, I thought it was customary for the originator to say j/k at some point. If not, it was just a prank.

5 minute rule is way to long. Who the hell thought of that one? Seriously you are going to kill any descent flow of a thread that way. 1 minute should be then limit and not 5.

No, no - repetition. The more posts you repeat, the more points you win on your way to the big prize.

Awesome. I want a free ipod.

I asked for a science, entertainment, and sports subforum to clean up OT a bit and all I got was new subforums I didn't want.

Figures. :roll:

The time warp bug is great, btw. Must be due to the server archiving posts as they are made for the transfer, whenever that is.
