I run an F-Body Site (Camaro & Firebird Owners) so, I turned the site into a Mustang Forum for the day. It was worth every minute.

When others found out he bounced them (for trying to take his domain name and sending out ads on his site) they got peeved and boycotted... He was peeved at the emails they sent, bounced those people, more emails, more peeved people.. Nobody laughing, nobody visiting, nobody coming back to see that it was all a big April Fools joke.
Sometimes those April Fools jokes backfire.


I would be offended if some of my top guys didn't try to buy my domain.

my users donated a big chunk of money on a custom style being developed now, and they know it, but have not seen a preview yet (it does look hot)

so i am using the bangladesh style tomorrow AM and telling them that is it

then once they figure it out (should only be a few minutes) i am going to switch to the vbseo style, still pretty bad compared to our style now, and see how many complaints i get....lol

--------------- Added [DATE]1238546445[/DATE] at [TIME]1238546445[/TIME] ---------------

hmmm, can't change styles, little more tweaking to do, musta missed a option...


edit, working now

Mhm. Am thinking to announce the promotion of some of the most prominent postwh ore newbies to moderators. Add a special user group for that and a fake staff forum.

I redirected the site to an MPAA notice, it looks like this: http://psucomic.com/lol/ I did it two days ago not to raise suspicion... also had a few inside members spread lies to make matters seem worse.

I used the [you] replacement in a big announcement up top that says "Ban [you]? Vote here!" with a Rick Roll. I also switched the language setting to Right to Left and reversed the whole board.
