April Fools Prank 2007

[Elmdor]

I'm not sure I'm buying that excuse Cyber.. you might have to fake your own death or something.

You're absolutely right though, it shouldn't be a biggie. We could always just spam the place up tonight and end it with Cosmic yelling at us.. again, if we can't think of anything better.

[Sprung]

Well, the reason that I'm opting out is that I just don't have the time to make my part in this all that convincing.

I love the idea of Cosmic stepping up and filling the role I was supposed to play. It wouldn't take too much deviation from the current course if any, and would seem to be far more credible than me going nuts. Also, if you guys wanna go ahead and set me back to moderator, you could work that into the argument/whatever as well.

It's already apparent to the public that Cosmic and I aren't getting along well, so that might be the best route right now. The question is, how are you going to handle it when you're online? I know you'll be here in the evenings and such, so it really shouldn't be an 'oh well' or the members might think something is up.

It would kind of make sense. Elmdor sort of showed who's side he was on with one of his posts towards you in the last Hangout, and everyone and their momma knows that I disagree with the way you were Adminned. Everyone also knows that Sprung and Cosmic haven't gotten along lately because of his lone decision, so Sprung maybe decides to right the wrong by demoting you. In turn, Cosmic demotes who he feels shouldn't even be on the staff, or something. Which would be me and Elmdor.

[Elmdor]

Hmm.. with your current title and everything..

You could demote him right away. :O If the two (and Cosmic, I suppose) of you are up for it, that is. Please, Cyber and Sprung, if you have other things to do, just say no. I'm just.. uh, I don't even know what I'm doing, quite frankly.

I can certainly do at least that much. Spam doesn't take much time or forethought. Hell, I can even mix it up and make my first post something blatantly against the rules, but not be obnoxious about it. Whatever. Point is, I can do that when I have the time. I'm just rarely around during the week due to work and whatnot, so anything more is a stretch, especially since so much rides on my input.

Also, I'm sad to report that as of...what time is it, 4:55 PM Mountain Daylight Time on March 26th, Cyberxion has died in a freak accident involving a light bulb and several roosters.

Cyber said he won't have the time to play things out the way he would've liked, or to our expectations, do maybe after being demoted to moderator, he can say that he's 'outta here' for a while. You know, feeling betrayed and all.

That's what I was thinking, but that would mean he couldn't post until Sunday.

I'm going to come online as a spammy douchebag, which will give Cyber a chance to fume out of the public eye. If anything I could maybe mention my distaste with what's been going down here as fallout of Cosmic's decision before leaving, but I don't think that me making too big a deal of it is needed.

[Mikey_]

That's what I was thinking, but that would mean he couldn't post until Sunday.

Well, not really. He can say one thing, but do another. No one would think any less of his leaving if he posts a few times. At least, I don't think. I doubt anyone would be like, didn't you say you were leaving?

[Cosmic]

OK, this should work. You and Eldmor need to REALLY piss me off though, both with your n00b personas and your normal accounts in the Hangout or something to make it credible though. Even with my outbursts last night I don't think most people see me as the kind of guy who'd randomly demote staff members.

[Cyberxion]

If it's possible, bring back the journal feature. I could post something in it about how this is all fucking pissing me off.

If that's not possible, I still don't wanna leave over this. Like I said, I can bitch about it a bit, and then I'll be at work for most of the time this week, so that'll take care of me seemingly limiting my time here due to all of this.

Oh, I think I can pull that off.

Just remember I wuv you, oh so much, though. Eh, should I log on with Megiddo now?

Don't worry about it, man. You don't have to leave-leave over this. Like Mikey said.. uh, yeah.

Well, I could go on another ban fest, but that'd just make me look even more like a jackass. Which would be odd since I made peace with some people already, and it'd take away from your new tyrant powers. I guess the only thing I could truly do is constantly question your decisions and just, go at it with you.

[Cosmic]

Yeah, go for it. Falloutboy's gonna be spamming for a bit, then I'll come online and throw the toys out of the pram. Let's do this.

Perhaps just do what Sprung suggested earlier, which is to blatantly ignore the spam and say it's my problem now. I'll kick up a stink in the Hangout and we can take it from there.
