Yes, yes, you super-sleuths - TBRS did not in fact abandoned BBxRae for RobxRae. I've always thought it's blasphemy *cough* for the staff members to suddenly converted into Rob/Rae shippers. It was my plan to have a prank like this one. The staff members were doing their job as they were told to. So, do not go hostile on them. They are just normal people looking for attention at my place. j/k Consider the prank as a test/experiment. I always knew that most of the members would take it serious if our site's changed into a RobxRae Shrine for real. I'm touched, and dissapointed at the same time by some members. I'm touched because they were still keeping the faith no matter what, but also dissapointed, because they acted like it was the end of the world. I wouldn't blame them for acting like that. If you think it was funny, then I'm happy for you. If you think it was too far for April Fools' prank, then forgive me for making such a silly prank. Just so you know, Jason was very close on getting fired for posting at 'News and Annoucements' forum without the admins' permission. But, I would also like to thank him for stopping the mess. Oh, and one last thing: Keep the faith no matter what! We've got comic books which have BB/Rae that's actually happening for REAL!

Really? Aww, I just got my Rob/Rae parephanalia unpacked, too! What am I gonna do with 200,000 "Rob/Rae4Ever" pogs? What, I ask of you?! Thanks alot, Sparky, you selfish jerk! I knew it. And I think just about everyone else knew it too. You had me going up until I realized what day it was. Even if I knew it was a prank...it's good to see the good ol' BB/Rae banner up again. ...But hang on to that other one. You know. Just in case you change your mind... :shifty: |

Don't you worry. We'll be keeping it safe. XDD I feel kinda bad that the other mods didn't keep their Rob/Rae avatars/signatures. I may just be lazy enough to keep mine around. ^^ Now we can prepare for next year's prank. -laughs evilly- ....I'm kidding! But seriously. I really respect the members who stayed behind and wanted to make it work. That shows some real maturity and strength right there. And I personally apologize to any other Rob/Rae shippers who are disappointed that it was just a prank. |

Well, I can only use this phrase in my defense, Sparky: "Desperate times call for desperate measures". I hope that you can forgive me for that mistake. |

Agreed, he did it to stop it and he did his job, I admire you for your bravery in that situation, like I said earlier today. ^_^ I'm honored to work along with all of the staff members. As for the whole thing, I just hope we don't celebrate April Fool's day next year. XD |

Actually, I think Jason gave the most convincing performance out of any of the mods. The sad acceptence thing...sorarocksmysocks was a close second. Nothing like bigotry to make someone perform above and beyond. That said, I'm gonna stop talking for fear that I'll sound like I'm trying to suck up. |

Not sure of whether to take that as a compliment or not. Glad I was a close second, though. XD Maybe I should take up acting, eh? While we might've survived until tomorrow, I think that it was probably a good thing Jason made the announcement. Made things calm down tremendously. |

You should take it as a compliment--the bigotry was directed at you. It's up to you on the acting--it's kinda hard to get a vibe on someone over the internet. |

Eh, they were all convincing performances, if that's what we're going to call them. (And like I said before in a couple of other threads, no laughing at me or thinking I'm dumb or whatever because I didn't realize it was a prank because it's "soooo obvious" due to the fact that it was done on April Fool's Day. It's only funny when you're the one laughing, you know. <.<) Nice acting, mods. ;) I'm glad that Jason wasn't fired-- I applaud him for stepping in when doing so was needed. And don't worry, I'm not feeling hostile toward any of the mods-- I was mad at one point, but at the concept in general, not the people carrying out the actions. Well, I've definitely typed enough about this whole thing over the past 24 hours. So, to everyone at TBRS, from Eski truly... Happy April Fools' Day. |

Really? I'm probably the worst liar you ever met. And I also suck at acting. Thanks for the comment Eski. But hey it's April 2nd. Now we can relax. |

It seem rather elaborite to chane an entire site for an April Fools day joke... but I got to admit, it was very effective. I've never seen that many people so mad before. You had me going, to. |
