April fools april fools what about this?

www.whitehouse.gov...

Well, at least it made things more interesting for a while...

And the joke originated BEFORE april 1st. Thats cheating

This is one joke that could have caused more harm than good though. If it had been true it would not have surprised me. That's a scary thought by itself.

Nice one though, well planned...

hahah, of man I'm still laughing my a$$ off

If we didn't started a few days ago, no one would he believed it, now (almost) everybody did

have a nice day ladies and gentlemen hahah

Yeah yeah, maybe it was a joke but it's likely to happen, and when it does we wont even know about it.

Well Papa... there's still no tanks in the streets either.

ohw come on Tyler uhhhm.. I mean Papa Karlo,

Have a little faith in the US government, they wont take over the board.



FREEDOM OF SPEECH

I can just see it, the DHS tries something like what the mods/admins did (lost alot of remaining respect for yall, no joke is worth dividing up the community like it was) and simon tries to tell us about it, and nobody believes him

I can just see the guys in the DHS office sitting back and chuckling while reading what's going on at ATS today.

That's why they ( DHS ) told me it was an April 01 fool joke.

As I wasn't sure if it was a joke or not, I sent them an email.

Is somebody else sent them an email too ?

Heh, if you just right clicked and checked the properties on the banner it would read macronyc, which is is William's website... I knew it was April 1st joke almost a soon as I saw it.

Fooled even moderators...

Had me going. I didn't over-react though!

I knew that DHS being on the board didn't mean anything. They could watch what you are saying without even being a member. Being a member only allows them to post their thoughts.

Good april fools joke!

Sorry I'm still unable to find the humor in this. So all the mods disputes were staged, but I got into it with quite a few people. I must have sent and received 100 u2u's yesterday. I had alot of attacks on my computer intercepted by my firewall and thought for sure it was those "yahoo guys", and that was last week. I would have thought that as caught up in it as I got, someone would have had the decency to u2u me and give me some peace of mind. Yeah, I know, lighten up. April Fools is a day, not two weeks.

PFFT!

PA, quit being sore. Unless any permenate damage was done, there is no problem. I admit I was a little appaled, but I got over it, it's in the spirit of April fools' day!

I'm not sore!
