Announcement: some minor good news, and some major not so good news

"If this does turn out to be a joke...it's in extremely poor taste. I'll never post on Tf.n again if it turns out to be an AFJ."


Haha! You're just mad because you got tricked!

And seriously, what else were you expecting on April Fool's Day?

 

Oooo, maybe a lot of people will leave. And then boards will return to a True Golden Age, where there are only a few of us to discuss things. I can't wait! Go LFL!

can we be that lucky?

dkt

 

<-----that's a picture of me, crying over the general stupidity in this thread.

I can't believe anybody would actually buy into this. As an April Fool's joke, this would be sub-par at best if it weren't for the fact that so many people are actually foolish enough to believe it. Their reactions to this thread are the only reasons that this is actually mildly entertaining.

 

I can't stop laughing right now.....

 

_ I encourage everyone to remove their icons and sigs in protest of the new LFL management, and in support of the mods that were demoted _

Not going to happen unless they are still around come May.

I still think this is all a big joke.

 

And seriously, what else were you expecting on April Fool's Day?

I was expecting it to be April Fool's Day when it happened, and I was expecting it to be FUNNY.

This is just absurd. Absurdity is not funny.

 

^^

I agree.

 

can we be that lucky?

We can hope! Go LFL! Go LFL! Go LFL!

 

Hmmm so far only

ONE

ONE

thread with leaked pics got locked


This CAN be a joke

 

Yeah, it's pretty stupid.

 

It must be a joke. Sapes hasn't said a thing about this in the 3SA board...

I can't believe I fell for it!

 

I know it is a joke



It is fun to play along

 

I feel bad for whoever wasted their time in writing that "official announcement" that only fooled a few people. I'd want those minutes of my life back if I were them.

 

And by the way, isn't LFL_Juan's first post a little TOO obvious that this is a joke?

"Does anyone know how to lock a thread on this damn boards?"


Yeah. Right. If that isn't obvious and over-the-top, I don't know what is. This just goes to show that the Mod Squad can't act.

 

...and I was expecting it to be FUNNY

Zing!

 

It is Not a joke. I don't know why people keep saying it is. I'm not even going to toy around with "if this is a joke" statements because I KNOW it is not a joke. The mods lie about a lot of things (like the fact that Everton and Dashy weren't banned), but this is Not one of them. This is real, and we are really living through it.

_ I encourage everyone to remove their icons and sigs in protest of the new LFL management, and in support of the mods that were demoted _

 

If this was real

The Picture Thread

Fan Trailer Thread

for examble

ALL WOULD BE LOCKED & deleted by now

 

Just to be clear, will these LFL newbies have the ability to ban people? Because I sure as hell hope not.

EDIT: Actually, it's more like n00bs, to be perfectly honest.

 

LFL has every right to do this. And should. Good for them.

 

April fools isn't about the funny, it's about getting tricked. And a sithload of people got tricked today, on April 1st (in Australia).

The reactions are always what makes it all worth it. I love how everyone immediately 'knew' all along... And of course there are the killjoys, stating the obvious to everyone who's been here as long or longer as them, and really just ruining the experience for the new kids on the block. Can't help but wonder what drives them.

Olaf Lispor... I really do crack myself up sometimes.

 

The fact that everything about the movie will be released in two days makes me cross over to the "This is a joke" side.

 

LOL Shackleton @ LFL Newbies

 

gabe & also with the fact the threads I mentioned would be locked in a heart beat if this was real & the fan art thread

 

Gabe, was the C&D you got part of the joke?

Are you in on it, then?

 

Just to be clear, will these LFL newbies have the ability to ban people? Because I sure as hell hope not.

If they're mods, then can ban you. I hope they learn the full ability of thier powers very quickly and make the boards right.
