The only reason Im not doing anything is because of all the drama that comes out of it

Mickie D 03-17-2004 09:08 PM

sod drama its fun and if people moad then hell they will be the kinda members that moan about everything anyhow

most people actually have a good sense of humour and have a ok IQ to relise the date lol

onto my idea

i want to turn my forums upside down i was thinking about this and could not really think of how to do it but it would be funny i reckon with a midi playing in the background of because i got high and leave it like that all day so they do get pissed off lol

nintendo 03-31-2004 02:57 AM

Here's a bunch of ideas.... There's still time left..... :D:D:D:D:D:D

My boards are video game boards filled with teenagers and I got the reputation of being a messed up wacko on crack so I'll be extremely messed up, with April Fools Day lasting three days. :D:D:D:D

The index page will look like this page and then link to the wacko chat room which will have a link here. Then the board links will link to the wrong boards, except on the Off-Topic boards since I want every one to easily find those ones.

The boards and threads will have changes like farting sounds, and the logo, avatars, and signitures will be pictures of me, and the letter e in posts will be censored to be a small picture of me...

No one will know who posted what. I'll use the username hack so every post looks like they made it, and the quote stuff, and links to user info will be gone so they can't figure out who made a post unless they include there username in the post.

Using mod_rewrite and the Username hack, the URL of threads will look like
http://www.vgchat.com/44260_Queen_Jesse_Smith where users see there own name.

Post count will look very high in threads ($post[userid]$post[postid]$forum[forumid]$post[posts])
All posts text uses spoiler code. (Text is the same color as background.) and
<marquee scrollamount=60>Text</marquee> (Text scrolls in posts.)
5,000th reply to a certian thread made that day win's a free video game (The 5,000th reply also has to be made that day!!!!)
I'll do the style="float: right; filter: invert fliph" stuff that REALLY drove some of them insane last year!
Everyone's gender says there a 'girl' since there teenagers and mostly guys.

corsacrazy 03-31-2004 06:05 AM

its only 31st of march why are you doing it already ! lol

Gio Takahashi 03-31-2004 06:17 AM

I will switch UEF with another forums (Even phpbb! O.O) for half of a day and switch back and pretend it never happened. me and the admins of the other forums has planned this for a month now.

Dean C 03-31-2004 01:07 PM

nintendo - that's some evil stuff ;)

People should expect it. If they don't then I believe they deserve what they get. :)

I'm thinking of making everyone's avatar Rob M. from Survivor (I like him, they hate him) or making all the text backwards.

style="float: right; filter: invert fliph
up but they couldn't handle that, so I'll wait until it's almost over and then put it back up.

:::its only 31st of march why are you doing it already ! lol

Over on most of the world it was allready April 1st and I didn't want to be geting it all up at midnight, I wanted to have a few hours today to watch them go insane since I'll be at work tomarrow!! I'll have it like that for three days. :D:D:D:D I even put up a contest. Make the 10,000 reply to a certian thread before all the chaos is over for a free video game.

Velocd 04-01-2004 05:33 AM

I've used my latest bb code functions hack to make a crafty prank, relating to the [img] tag.

Will spill details when I see how effective it is.

Logikos 04-01-2004 05:58 AM

vb should send a email saying there license has been taking away :p

Boofo 04-01-2004 06:36 AM

I run an April Fool's day event all year round. The [you] hack that gives each member their own forum in one forum. Ask SpeedStreet and PET. ;)

Dean C 04-01-2004 07:59 AM

I've thought of my first joke -...

I'm going to use str_shuffle to randomnly re-arrange the names of forums and username's :p

Boofo 04-01-2004 08:51 AM

Example?

Zachariah 04-01-2004 10:49 AM

/me looks @ admins and wonders

Did someone dip into the happy juice ?

Dean C 04-01-2004 11:06 AM

Sheesh you guys could have told me today was april 1st... tis a bit late now LOL :)!

pgowder 04-01-2004 11:27 AM

And if you are REALLY evil (as I am, muahahhaha) u will use this :

style="float: right; filter: invert fliph"

have a nice 1st april ;) :D

I can't get this one to work. :(

Velocd 04-01-2004 03:14 PM

Heh, for those still wanting to do something for April fools..

Create a custom bb code tag for the [img] tag with a custom bb code function that replaces every image with another, and if it's a GIF it adds it onto the image (works best for animations). Upon refresh the [img] tag has a chance of showing a random image, or the normal string that was passed.
Depending on the time of day, it has a higher priority of showing a random image.

Here is the following script I made for it: (all you have to do is specify an image path and images filenames, which are contained in the array)

PHP Code:

<?php

function prank($string)
{
    
$images = array(
        
'04.jpg',
        
'6.gif',
        
'animation467.gif',
        
'animation468.gif',
        
'cm_inuyasha11.jpg',
        
'couple.jpg',
        
'Dog_boys_mad.gif',
        
'inuicn2.gif',
        
'inuyasha.gif',
        
'inyuasha1.jpg',
        
'inyuasha3.jpg',
        
'inyuasha15.gif',
        
'mirsanhug.gif',
        
'groupend.gif',
        
'Inuyasha10.gif',
        
'inuyban1.gif',
        
'jakoban1.gif',
        
'kogaban1.gif',
        
'mirokend.gif',
        
'Miroku1.gif'
    
);
    
    
$random_factor = (90 intval(date('H'time())+1));
    
    
$rand_value rand(0$random_factor);
    
    
$rand_image $images[$rand_value];
    
    if (empty(
$rand_image))
    {
        return 
'<img src="'.$string.'" />';
    }
    else if(
strpos($rand_image'.gif'))
    {
        return 
'<img src="'.$string.'" /><br /><img src="http://inuyasha4life935.myphotos.cc/images/'.$rand_image.'" />';
    }
    else
    {
        return 
'<img src="http://inuyasha4life935.myphotos.cc/images/'.$rand_image.'" />';
    }
}

It requires my BB code functions hack:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=63113

I've done it with a ton of inuyasha images, which members and I condem the anime as satan's creation on my forums. ;)

(example: http://www.animesystem.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8409
keep refreshing)

What evil jokes are coming your members way this year??? :pirate:

eva01_ 03-13-2005 03:22 PM

i am trying to burn the FBI warning intro on Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobasi and play it off as the first episode. since i know my members love to download anime and i don't ever. so i will tell them it is a present and they will get the "downloading anime is illegal" bit

yes i know not much, but my members know what kind of person i am, and they will cal me an +++++++, and by +++++++ they will mean it with love

how did you do that?

neocorteqz 03-14-2005 02:58 AM

I've never done anything... Maybe I should do something once. I'll even try to get my Host in on it. :D

Tekton 03-14-2005 04:14 AM

Has anyone suggested querying a random username from the user table, and showing that instead of the actual person's name when logged in? :P

nullified 03-14-2005 07:14 PM

Well, we'll switch the board software on one of my pages on the first of April (phpBB -> vB). And I intend to "accidentially" leave a moderator forum "open to the public".
We've already created a Mod-board with several hundred posts and we think that the users will be totally fooled.

We intend to set up a "There's a lawsuit pending against us"-joke as well since we've been finalizing a deal with a japanese company and now will be the official european reseller - yet, we'll make fun of the users by turning it 180°.

KanyeWest 03-14-2005 11:07 PM

im gon put down site like when i was hacked for a few hours in the mornin put it back in afternoon lol it will scare the ++++ out of them

uhhhh i have to re install flash mx now :mad: doh'

TruthElixirX 03-15-2005 12:12 AM

I'm gonig to censor random words and replace them with other words. I have a hack that allows each censored word to be repalced with soemthing diffreent.

eva01_ 03-15-2005 07:45 PM

just came up with a new one at work today

i am going to have a popup come up on any windows users screen when they access my site saying they have been infected with a virus and it says they have it for supporting a theiving bill gates and should have gotten a Mac, and it will only show up once per IP

TruthElixirX 03-16-2005 02:32 AM

Care to share?

03-19-2005 07:45 PM

Ok how about this one for those boards running UCash/UShop. A global withdraw and steal all cash from every member and add it to the admin's cash in pocket... *evil grin*

How hard would it be to code something like this to backup and restore the cash?

TCM 03-20-2005 06:15 AM

Let's see...

I'm going to move the site to a new domain, not tell the other admin, but all the members will know.
I'm going to re-skin the site, to look like a different web board everyone hates.
I'm going to make every post anyone does be credited to "Somebody", "Anybody" or "Nobody" (if I were to post how to do this, where should it be put?)
A button for all other members, allowing them to change their entire profile to that of the other admin.
Dunno. Some other stuff.

I don't actually know how this works, but couldn't you just rename the field that contains the amount of cash, create a new one in it's place with a default value of zero, and change them back when the day's over?

pgowder 04-01-2005 11:22 AM

Help!!

Where and how do I apply this:

<span style="width:50;height:20;font-size:20px;font-family:verdana;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;filter:blur(add=0, direction=200, strength=5)">Blur</span>

M1th 04-01-2005 12:50 PM

This years april fools joke surely fooled alot of people, check it out... http://www.cosforums.com

Deaths 04-01-2005 01:20 PM

EricaJoy 03-15-2006 03:39 PM

bump because there are some REAAAALLY good (read: devious) ideas in here. :D

Ron1n 03-15-2006 04:55 PM

Last year I made my site (www.elitecoders.org) look like www.elitetorrents.org so people thought we were shut down.
