April Fools...

[Britishbulldog]

My personal favourite was the year this site was changed into a Habs blog complete with colour scheme.

I mentioned that one to my wife.  I think that is the one that threw me the most.  I never even considered it could be a joke.

I almost think it is funny now but the years of therapy since that tramatic day have been expensive.

It freaked me out for about 2 seconds when I first saw it late last night, but then I quickly remembered it was April 1st today!

 

[maplesyrup]

I completely forgot about it being April fools.  :-[

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Yeah it got me for a minute.

Well played lads.

 

[bustaheims]

Yup. You had me until I actually read what was there. We've all had our hearts broken by Leafs too many times for me to believe you'd give up on them like that.

I have never really posted much but I have been on this site since 2006 and it is a valued part of my surfing. When I got home from work this morning and saw the notice it was as if I witnessed my cat of 12 years being run over by a steamroller. I sat in front of my laptop with my bottom lip quivering for about 5 minutes.
Bravo, Bravo.

Well, at first I thought...oh, never mind...it's April Fool's!

 

[Bullfrog]

Please make it a certified cheque

Deal's off. That'll cost me another $15.

Bravo, Bravo.

I knew it was a joke, but i did think for a moment "what would I do if the site actually went down for good?"

The internet would lose all meaning for me.  :'(

I'd have a lot more free time that I'd have no idea what to do with.

Hey, you might even become a productive member of society.

Yeah, and who wants that?

I think next year you should make me moderator for a day and just let me run wild.

Nik would be so banned.

hate to burst your bubble, dude, but we moderators have no banning privileges. We can make suggestions about necessary administrative interventions, but outright banning is in the hands of RickJayDarrylRob. You'd be able to edit/delete all Nik's posts, but you can't ban him.

wow, I bit 100%. Almost deleted the link too dont even know why i clicked on it just now, probably just out of habit!

You should probably just have Rick e-mail me all his login information, it would be easier that way for everyone.

Editing power could be quite abused and probably more fun than banning.

Editing %$$#@ would be quite abusive and probably more *&%%$@ than &*@%$.

like that?

My bigger concern: what the hell was I supposed to do at work all day?

 

[maplesyrup]

No kidding! I'm still waiting for the big firewall to come and at that point, I'm going to have to start, you know, socializing with my colleagues. I really don't want to expedite that. * shudders *
