Honestly, I was a bit shocked to see PimpPeter2's banning at first (seeing as that would make the third time he has been banned), but after seeing other users getting banned as well (I got suspicious when I then saw your ban) it became pretty obvious. Though this [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.184917-Furburt-banned] thread was absolutely hilarious to contribute to.

Also, you missed [user]SirBryghtside[/user]. He was actually pretty pissed off, considering the fact that he got no warning and was in the process of writing a, supposedly, epic review, which will, suposedly, be epic.

For the record, I feel as if it would've been better if you actually made the bannings look legitimate, but that's just my opinion on the subject. I prefer subtle April Fools jokes to blatantly obvious ones.

Damn you're ugly, hubilub.
lol...ok im not going to lie i was thinking the same thing. Only reason i wanted to post here. Then again theres a lot of that on this site...yes im shallow.

OP: Yay?
I wouldn't say he's ugly. I think he looks more like a blonde version of Pete Burns back in the 80s [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJv5qLsLYoo]. Take that as a compliment or insult as you wish.
Yep, I have successfully pulled off a hat trick of banning. I think I get to go to Disney World now or something. :p

When I messages Kuliani about the prank, I let him decide to keep it funny or serious. I think it was better funny, becuase otherwise we would have been filled to the brim with modsass, and I really didn't want to get anyone in trouble due to a prank.

Also, Hub looks like Link from the OoT fan movie "Hero of Time"


And for the record people. Nick is totally like the hawtest Jonas brother

I dont now. I havent seen you around much since I just came here yesterday. Even if I did, I doubt you'd leave an impression on me, because with you post count it makes me sort of pity you considering how much of your life your wasting with rediculously high post counts when you you could be wasting your life playing games instead ;D
I can do both!

Amazing, I know.
Seriously though, how does one garner up a post count that high and still have room to breathe?
Monkey slaves.

Lots and lots of monkey slaves
Wait a minute!They dont have Monkey's where you live!

Hmm... I feel bummed that I slept through the entire April Fool's day. Could've logged on and witnessed firsthand the sheer chaos that was going on.

And no... I literally can't get out of bed when April Fool's comes around knocking on my door. I seem to have this desire-- NAY! Need to sleep through the day. I may never find out how or why it's come to be this way... but I can't blame myself for it, I blame Darwin.

Now that's absolutely hilarious. Great captions and all.
It almost makes me wish that I was significant enough on here to fall victim to this.
[small]On second thought, no. [/small]

That was fun, glad you guys took the time out to plan it out and everything. As much as I don't want the Escapist to feel like the Hubilib (sp) or whoever else show to new users, I gotta say that doing things like this isn't about post count, it's about doing something neat for the community, and that is always appreciated.

Virgil wanted to keep us banned till Tuesday, luckily Kuliani decided he wasn't nearly hungover enough to torture us.
That would've been torture, I missed most of you

I have to agree, the Mod Edits made it to obvious for anyone to take them seriously
Well most of us missed you! By the end of it we were all itching to start posting again anyway.

WHY DIDN'T I GET BANNED?!
I dunno to be honest.

I suppose with your probation, it could have undermined the fact that you already had mod wrath.

Also, I was surprised at the amount of people who had under gonzo posts, I thought it was everyone who was reasonably well known.

No, I don't plan to attack a billion euro corporation with napalm.

I plan to attack a billion euro corporation with monkeys drenched in napalm.

They don't have defense systems for that!

I don't know if I should be happy not to have been banned, or upset I'm not important enough to be banned...

I had the same feeling. I still do... Why wasn't I filled in on this? I'm not part of the gang? Drats!

As for the "It was my idea" thing...

Time to edit this ***** with a speech from PP2!

"Like all good ideas, the idea for the bannings came to me while I was in the bathroom. In the shower, to be specific. That's right, I think of you guys when I shower. You're cool with that, right?

We had developed two ideas, one was to get almost everyone we could to do a full force avatar switcharoo. However, this was a pretty big task, and it kinda lacked oomf.

The next idea we worked out in the Wordsmiths group was the bannings. The original list composed of:

Pimppeter2
Neonbob
Portal Maniac
Fat Man Spoon
Hubilub
IdealistCommi
Sassafrass
Ren3004
TheNumber1Zero
Furburt

It took a while to get the list down pat, because some people were afraid of joining in on the festivities. When we finally did reach a stalemate, I got in contact with Kuliani again and I left it up for him to decide whether or not the bans should be funny or not.

And thank god he went with funny. The bans were a riot, and he even went on to ban people that I thought we could never get to agree to it. So I'd like to thank him, for making it such a fun day for us all.

Now, if you didn't get banned, don't feel left out. There are three explanations to why you were left out.

1- Simply, the list would have been to big, we couldn't include everyone without other people feeling even more left out.

2 - You don't spend enough time around me. Seriously, whats wrong with you?

3 - I don't like you.

So thanks to everyone for making the day such a memorable one. And next year we'l hopefully get you guys with something better!"

Why did I not simply edit this in the OP?

... Bump.

I'm surprised you didn't ban Wordsmith, considering the similarities in name.

I still don't get how it was funny. O.O

I swear, the two must be related or something.


Wait, did I just get them mixed up?

Hubilub said:
Oh that's a compliment alright.
Meh, I guess there's always worse things I could compare you to, such as the modern day Pete Burns-

...i still say he looks like pete burns today...
Oh shi...

Dr Ampersand said:
Wait that's how you say your name? I thought the letter u in your name sounded like the u in flubber or blubber.
Honestly, I saw his video in the Accent Thread, yet still pronounce it that way. It's just too annoying to try pronouncing the way you're supposed to do so in a Wiltshire accent.

Damn, I've still only got the McDonald's vouchers and the Neo badge for my voluntary suspension.

Fair enough, it's just my opinion on humour and April Fools jokes. For example, I preferred NewClassic's Review of Twilight [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.184949-NewClassic-Reviews-Twilight-With-Pictures] to this joke, but that's up for others to decide.

I really want to watch that now.
