Did I get pranked? I'm Stratos! Not Mop it up!

The sad thing is that I didn't even notice it at first until I saw her copy my exact post in a thread and realize it was my post!

LOL

What April Fools jokes have you seen around the 'net? I think other people's names were changed as well.

"." at the end of the names.

My favorite April fools so far is the TEXTp resolution on youtube. (hopefully they make it permanent)

Did the culprit do anything to me? =P

This is the funnest thing I saw all day.
I was checking through my PMs just now and it shows that EasyCure as the sender of some PMs to me when it was Mop it up that sent those specific PMs.
Also if you click on the Mop it up in this topic username it shows that the gender and location is the same.
Pale I don't think anything has changed for you since you still have mod powers. You did lock that topic in Nintendo Console.
The only way I figure you could not be Pale is that someone changed your profile info and gave you mod powers if you were a regular member and not the real Pale.

As far as other April Fools jokes there was the Mass Effect topic in Nintendo Console. 1up did a Pokemon Kart for Wii. On Gamefaqs there was multiple topics about certain games coming to Wii or the Virtual Console which really wasn't likely.
There was even one about Miyamoto dieing of AIDS which is not funny at all.

The real question is... who is vudu?

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #6 on:** April 01, 2010, 03:52:59 PM »

Just looked through my PMs and vudu is PaleZer0.

Can't you look in the moderation log to see who is behind this?

Edit:Well it looks like Pale Zer0 is Vudu. My only guess is that vudu changed his user name to make it look like he isn't responsible.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #7 on:** April 01, 2010, 04:11:09 PM »

Oh wow, glad it hasn't happened to me!

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #8 on:** April 01, 2010, 04:14:51 PM »

GP I wouldn't of said that. You are likely to get your name changed now.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #9 on:** April 01, 2010, 04:31:22 PM »

Oh noes!

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #10 on:** April 01, 2010, 04:36:56 PM »

Vudu is responsible for this. He is the only mod online and is masquerading as Pale Zer0.

By the way for those keeping track. I am Maxi.

How can you forget the one I originally posted here in the Funhouse and re-posted in teh 3DS thread? There were at least 2 people that were fooled by that one, and maybe a few more if I hadn't tried to make it obvious to those that were paying attention.

These ones are really really tight, especially in the front

. I don't think I'll be able to sit down or button/zip these up.

Well they were funny and clever in that you BlackNMild posted them on the 31st since some parts of the world it was the first of April in some parts of the world.
But yeah I wasn't fooled by them since I went and quoted those posts since I saw they had abbreviations apart of the post.

I wouldn't say that for sure. You could be changed to someone else.

You don't have to quote the post to see the abbreviation, just put your mouse over the abbreviated part of the post.

try it here

But that was part of my point. I tried to make it obvious to those that pay attention. If I didn't put an abbreviation, would you have believed it at first sight?

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #19 on:** April 01, 2010, 05:11:09 PM »

This kind of thing could make for an interesting Mafia game.

especially if no one was allowed to reveal who they really were, now you wouldn't know who to be skeptical of and you really have to pay attention to posting patterns to figure out who is really who.

I actually do have to quote it since I am on my Wii.

I wouldn't of believed it since it was so close to April 1st.
Maybe if it was a week or two before April 1st I might of believed it.

Well you should embrace your change, it has improved you 10 fold.

This is like that episode of Rescue Rangers where everyone trades bodies.

Would you look at Gadget differently if you've seen the Internet before ever watching the show?
