Suggestion April Fools went too far

[ohmdiver]

This past 4/1 the mods decided to allow certain controls to be turned of to help play a joke on the rest of us. (I am pointing directly at the
"Pssst...lets talk about them while they are not here" thread in Humor forum)
In a pm to me I was accusesed of personally attacking someone.

I fell for the joke and unintentionally caused someone else some pain.
For causing someone else pain I am truelly sorry.

In my pm to the person who clued me in, I asked if anyone else was asked to apologize for undue pain caused by this joke?

Does anyone else think this joke went to far? or had the potential to go too far?
Is anyone else feel any undue pain because of this "joke" thread?

Well, it's Easter this weekend here - maybe a different date in Eastern Orthodox areas, maybe not so observed in some countries - but the USAmerican manufacturer-retailer complex here really push it, aside from the religious observance. Lots of pagan symbols of fertility have been incorporated for a list of reasons, i.e. bunnies - famous as being prolific (mice & rats never caught on) and eggs - the ultimate fertility icon with anything that goes with them: chicks, ducks.

Want me to post some G-rate Easter cartoons...?

i get 2 easters each year... standard christian and greek orthodox!

i wonder how many pm's was generated.. i got a very surprising one yesterday from someont that fell for it hook line and lead weight

I gotta tell ya, even though I caught on pretty quickly, and even after I knew what the joke was, it was still pretty funny to see "RJP is the biggest stroke" and "Everyone says RJP's drysuit smells bad" and all that kind of stuff. Especially knowing no-one else was seeing the same thing.

Don't know why. Guess at some level I'm still a 10-year old boy at heart!

Thank ^you^ to everyone who had a laugh and played along!

Whats really funny is that even though I knew it was the ^you^ code, I just had to keep hitting the quote button to make sure that they weren't talking about me.

Leejnd,
I think I'll lay low next year... You know the saying... bad things happen to bad people... I got to spend 4.5 hours in the ER today (I'm guessing from my fast decent in my poopy suit escaping from the Black Helicopters.... but I'll live to harass ^you^ another day.

Luckily for Valentines day we didn't pay the SB-VD game:idhitit:

Why is that lucky?

Bad joke!
It took me all day to get out of the chamber. Then everyone didn't believe all I had was a hangover.
Now they won't dive with me. Had to "force" girlfriend to go today.
