Be careful TODAY ;)

Post by JuLieN »

Be careful today, guys: this is a special day. If you see some weird things on the Internet (Including TALKCHESS), think twice before you report some posts ;)

Just a hint...

By the way, do not hesitate to report your funny findings here...

Julien, yea I know. But I can't take the chance on April's Fool. It is not worth the risk. Best to remove that shit- or fix this now. It was a great joke- whatever- but it might be worse than you think. If not, great. You can find a lot of great stuff to pull if you google "Notepad Tricks".

Can you see it from my point of view. I am not worried about me- and I love jokes. But if this isn't one- it is my fault.

This is hilarious! Any chance you'll take requests? It would be nice if Кomodo still changed into Iguana even if there was a number at the end (Komodo3, Komodo64). I'd also enjoy tablebase->psychic.

Edit: Also, this might be over the top, but I think having the filter swap Christian->Muslim, Muslim->Jewish, Jewish->Christian would have an entertaining effect on CTF.

Not funny for moderators to alter posts. Bad idea.

I think it makes a huge difference that it's just a text filter altering how posts are displayed. All posts will return to normal once it's turned off.

Exactly :) A consequence is that only screenshots can serve as souvenirs...

haha, yeah, all my Open Source Bullet rating list posts have had "Fruit" changed into "Godfather" :lol:
See tournament forum!
Oh and in fact the word f r u i t gets automatically replaced by Godfather, and t o u r n a m e n t gets replaced by brawl
