snefroe Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 I was harassed by a member who was totally panicked this morning about this terrible news. in fact, I didn't even have the chance to finish my first cup of coffee this morning when this member invaded my traditional Sunday introspect, better known as the moment during which i ask my self the question "why on earth did i drink all that beer yesterday night?" :-X this bizarre dialogue unraveled on msn: -Ras- zegt:What the megablocks happend?????????????????? Snefroe1 zegt: what happened? -Ras- zegt: EB is shut down... is it a APRIL fools day Snefroe1 zegt: hehe Snefroe1 zegt: hope so -Ras- zegt: you have no idea?? -Ras- zegt: hi by the way Snefroe1 zegt: jp's on line -Ras- zegt: ask him pleeeeease Snefroe1 zegt: not sure if he will respond -Ras- zegt: hmmm... Snefroe1 zegt: my gues it is a joke though -Ras- zegt: I DEMAND AN ANSWER!! -Ras- zegt: wonder if lego is in it too? Snefroe1 zegt: i don't really see why they would have asked us to shut down... it's gotta be a joke really -Ras- zegt: ok. Snefroe1 zegt: it's the thing jp would do Snefroe1 zegt: besides, i don't think we did anything wrong so... -Ras- zegt: Can Quote
Professor Flitwick Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 i know i did'nt ralise the date eihter and i could'nt belivethat lego would have a reason to shut this site down. Quote
CopMike Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Sne - better known as the moment during which i ask my self the question "why on earth did i drink all that beer yesterday night?" :-XYeah, that was that Space contest entry X-D Beer On copmike Quote
casewindu Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 i knew this was an april fool days joke and i was right! :-D (that was sick though) i remember last year, when i was on this site yet, that someone joked there would be "baywatch" lego but this was much better! :-D Quote

Eurobricks Emperor Bonaparte Posted April 1, 2007 Eurobricks Emperor Posted April 1, 2007 Good joke *n* ... Making me think that all the pirate indexes and libraries (which took me HOURS to make) were lost >:-( >:-( >:-( I knew it was the 1th of April, but still I feared there was a chance this might be true. From now on I will be taking some backups from time to time :-P :-D Quote
JoeMI6 Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 This did catch me off guard early morning. Then I realised the date. Good one guys *y* I expect something better next year though X-D Quote
El Bucanero Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Well, I almost decided to get me another hobby, because I was verry pissed at LEGO! :-D Like: "If you shut EB down, we won't buy any other product of you!!!". Strange things can happen on the 1st of April :-P Mr Tiber Quote
Ras 74 Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 I expect something better next year though X-DBetter? BETTER?? This was pure horror. not fun, not entertaining... pure EVIL!! How can it be worse?? well... we were al very toutched by your concern for the EB-community :-$ happy now? :-$ :-P Your still on the list Sne... ;-) Quote
Hinckley Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Holy Megabloks. It's funny how quickly I forget it's April 1st. And how important EB is to me. I was crushed! Glad it was all just a sick sick joke. Thanks! Quote
Lord Admiral Helden Ravensdorn Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 You dont have to worry about a restraining order on EB. You might have to wory about Greg putting a restraining order on me :P Quote
Hobbes Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Holy Megabloks. It's funny how quickly I forget it's April 1st. And how important EB is to me. I was crushed! Glad it was all just a sick sick joke. Thanks! You of all should have understood X-D Quote
Kikuichimonji Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Well, the message title was a dead give-away. You should've at least changed that :-D Quote
Hinckley Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 You of all should have understood X-D What can I say? I'm a very gullible joker... :-$ Quote
Hobbes Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Well, the message title was a dead give-away. You should've at least changed that :-D Well, jipay posted this message after what actually happened: the board was taken offline and the message he posted was shown instead. Seems you missed the actual joke ;-) Quote
Vader Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Seems i missed the joke, i came home late last night and went straight to the boards bypassing the home page so i didnt even see the message till after i had read a few threads. By that time it was very obvious that it was a joke, shame as it might of got me. Quote
