April Fool Aftermath

the second one is "mabushii" = brilliant, right?
damn… have to repeat Kana again
What's the first? Can't find it XD

Part of me thinks that this was a great joke, and another part of me thinks that it was really, really lame.
Oh well, at least I can finally see Lorenzo's raps.
-
Oh well, at least I can finally see Lorenzo's raps.
Oh god, that thread was freaking histerical! Rappin' Lorenzo was pretty much the highlight of the prank, next to Zephos' comic strip. Ah, good times…
-
That was the plan from the beginning to tell what was going on on April 2… Griffin's identity was part of AF :x
Tecnically speaking, since it all happened before April 1st, it's not a AF prank. ~~What you did is called pissing us off for the heck of it. And when you saw how angry people were and how many found it in bad taste, you decided to continue it anyway. Is a prank really that important?
Sorry, but I'm not buying that you felt guilty, nor do I believe you actually feel sorry. If you did feel so guilty about it, why continue it?
All this just to pull a stupid pointless prank. You lost my respect and trust, ocean.~~

We DID feel guilty. That's why it didn't go on for three straight days like we planned. Is this like, the first time you guys have genuinely had your heads fucked with or something? :getlost:

And Zephos' strip about Lorenzo's rap was the highlight of the highlight.

No, I've been through mind fucks before. I just thought the staff would know better than to keep a prank going after it went sour.
By prank continuing, I meant not telling us it was you guys doing all that crap until today. You saw how this was angering people and how so many didn't find it funny, but you decided to go on with the second part of the prank anyway? Like I asked before, is an AF prank really that important?

Well, apparently to you it is. Jesus christ take a chill pill and don't get so pissy that you got fooled by it. As ocean has explained in this thread and many times before, if something like that actually happened, we have very quick and easy ways to take care of that stuff. Use the noggin a little bit.
We're moving on and we're trying not to let this mistake hinder what future performance we're doing – if any real, legit threat comes around, you can be assured that we'll take care of it. Get your panties out of a bunch already; we're not going to have random Griffin days.

The only thing that had me upset was it happen after the forums were fixed so I was thinking did yall break the forum to mess with us . Yall need to watch out cause 4 years ago on April Fools yall said 4kids will get One Piece and we saw what happen a few months later when they did .
-
Well, like I've said before, it was a good prank; it was just poorly executed and a bit mean-spirited in nature, but only just a bit.

What does any of this have to do with my post? I didn't say anything about your methods of fixing these problems. And if you think my problem is that I got fooled, you're sadly mistaken. Why would I give a shit if I fall for a prank?
Yes, I'll move on as well. But I'm staying with my opinion. And next year, please keep it in good taste.
And in case you can't figure it out, I'm not angry, just disappointed.
@mr:Apparently yes.
Nope.
It's like an excessive-compulsive disorder to go so far to pull of a prank.

Calm down dude, it's not even a big deal anyway. Your just mad because you wanted the leaders to make an huge mistake so you can enjoy correcting their errors and you were expecting Griffin to be a real troll and for him to be banned. Plus you wanted to help out and hack; but you seem to have a high expection that would disappoint you when it comes crashing down on you when it did not meet your expection.
I'm not saying this to flame you or bash you, I'm olny stating what you have in mind. I already forgave the leaders and I had learn not to jump the conclusion.
At frist I was a bit disappointed and embarressed but now I don't care anymore. I'm moving on.

So what you're saying is that the staff's collective, unconscious evil will eventually manifest itself int the form of a ruthless superpower known as "GRIFFIN," who will take over the forum and scorn the innocent
the bigot who thinks being an asshole is actually worth shit

If I actually enjoy pointing out their errors, don't you think I'd be having a blast right now?

One of the mods will not get some tail or be on her rag and take it out on the forum . Someone might realy hack here and then we will realy see how good they are .

Yeah I was about to say, that's funny coming from the guy who thought that making a thread DETAILING THE CRIMES OF GRIFFIN would cause the staff to award him with the key to the city and Senior Member status

Let me tell you something, if Griffin was actually taking over the board, he would had done the following:
-He would had deleted the sub-forum, not hide it
-
He would have re-ban members under a new account or IP ban them at the frist time. He did not IP ban me and I was able to enter under the name Second is Dead and Luffykido account.
-
He did not add any new board sections, nor did he deleted old topics and wiping the old section slate clean
-
He would had aquire the sever that hosts AP Wikia and hacked it up
-
He would have surpass the sever guy
-
he would had changed the codes to prevent the leaders from shutting down the site and restore it.
-
he would change the forum name
Him not doing that should have been a big giveaway that the leaders are behind this as well.

But you still thought the site was getting hacked. It's easy to say those things on hindsight, but it's a different matter when you are faced with the situation. You yourself believed that Griffin was hacker/troll which caused you to start archiving his supposed crimes.

How is that in any way related to the posts before? Ô.o
in reference to the senior membership: Shouldn't that only be people who have been the longest in the board anyway?
I personally don't see what's so great about having a shit colored name (no offence… it looks just really... well.... XD).
I think it's really sad if people want to become a senior to be famous or well known in the board... A forum can't be that important, can it? -

I should think being an editor would be more important to you, Le Lawliet. I mean, there's nothing better than supplying these people with OP knowledge, is there?

Let's look at what Joekido said a few days ago!
I think Griffin is a weak wussy asshole
I find Griffin to be a weak, wussy ruler who's just playing god.
If Griffin was an tough evil chicken, he could had done the following below;
-
He would have unban spammers like Zuzan or Freddy
-
He could have turn the ranks such as AP.net editor, senior member, fansubbers, and scanlators into regular members
-
He would have simply deleted the sub boards, senior boards, AP editor boards and other hidden boards
-
He would have re-name this board into "Griffin Park" with a chicken in the middle
-
He could had tried to surpass the sever guy
-
He could had re-ban the already banned people
-
he could have created bunch of sections for his own
This just shows he has no idea what he's doing. Give it up Griffin, you doomed to get banned. Give the power back to the staff and go away you weak chicken.

I said I don't give a shit anymore. Okay I got selfish and I admit that so will you please leave me out of it!
This coming from Mr "I was so going to do something to help this forum get back to normal, so ocean would make me a senior member and might even give me my old editor's job back".
Okay, how do you know I want my editors job back? The reason why I lost the rank was because I was not using my brian clearly and I was on a personal quest to get everyone to agree with me by shouting out an unessessary racist comment against the Muslims instend of the terrorist themselves. And in the other thread, there was a nosy mod warning me not to flame one member when al I did was encouraging everyone to ignore that user and I went into a whiny, pity, emotional fuckwad and Ocean decide that my attitude has gone far enough and revoke my rank that I worked hard to protect.
So how does the fuck do you know I want that rank back? Did Ocean sent everyone a PM about me? Don't be afried to answer me but I'm gonna have to ask you not to meddle in my bussiness.
But you still thought the site was getting hacked. It's easy to say those things on hindsight, but it's a different matter when you are faced with the situation. You yourself believed that Griffin was hacker/troll which caused you to start archiving his supposed crimes.

Ocean, the posting rules aren't back to normal when you are logged out.EDIT: or is it always like that? XDD
Ah, I should go to bed already <.<
-
Good joke. lol.
I should of known, when I was talking to Ocean on yahoo and I told him I could find somebody to hack the site pretty quickly. He was like naw, our server guy is trying to do that. I was thinking the server guy sucked, but he was just in on the joke.
That makes it even better.

When did that happen? I never knew. Maybe I should've revoked your editor status earlier than I did.
And in the other thread, there was a nosy mod warning me not to flame one member when al I did was encouraging everyone to ignore that user and I went into a whiny, pity, emotional fuckwad and Ocean decide that my attitude has gone far enough and revoke my rank that I worked hard to protect.
I don't know who that mod was… but the decision was made almost solely by me.
So how does the fuck do you know I want that rank back?
It's kind of obvious by seeing what you write in this forum. Maybe you are the only one not seeing that. Plus, http://apforums.net/showthread.php?p=411467&highlight=editor#post411467.
Did Ocean sent everyone a PM about me?
What do I gain out of it by doing that? It's rather a waste of time.
Don't be afried to answer me but I'm gonna have to ask you not to meddle in my bussiness.
I think it's better for you to stop posting in this thread now before you put yourself in a worse position.
dlo62282, yup. Guys like you really made worry that if anyone would hack into the site (and I asked the server guy to take the backup)

I think I touched a nerve here, seeing as out of the three or four people who replied to your self describing post aimed at Rootbeer you chose to only respond to mine. So to the question, why do I think you want your former rank back.
Firstly, the manner in which you responded is one indicator (if you don't understand please re-read your own post). If you did not care about your former status then the way in which you responded would have been different.
Secondly, during my time here browsing the forums, I noticed on several occasions you mentioned that you have PMed ocean a few times with hopes of getting your old position back. Why would you ask ocean to restore your status to you if you did not care about it?
Thirdly, your over-eagerness to help out during the Griffin takeover period, going as far as logging Griffins crimes in hopes of being recognised by ocean and duely rewarded was also a large indicator.
Now I don't know what you were trying to achieve with this post. Maybe you thought you could pick on the lesser known poster and pick up a few rep points along the way. Let me make it clear to you joekido, I neither am afraid of you (as you tried to imply in your post) or am interested in your brainless fall from glory to near obscurity. I am however too short on time to engage in a volley of posts with you, so I graciously bow out. Good day to you joekido goes off to test the ignore button.
Ps: try to learn proper spelling, grammer and structure, as it could help you inlife ahead.
-
Black Galleon, regardless if you arguments are true or not, please remember that this is a Op forum and not a I can analyze your evil ways to get popular forum. Ocean's post was fully enough and you don't have to bash him more.
-
I was actually in the process of replying to joekido's post when ocean posted. I had no intention of bashing anyone when I joined this board as my intention was to discuss OP. I did however retort to one of his posts rather brashly, because I thought he was picking on a friend of mine.

…...uh,....joke.....not so funny...come up with something more creative next time and make sure that not everyone knows it's an april fools joke baka
