I must say that was a bit of a nasty shock when I logged on and Entmoot looked like a Teletubby board gone horribly wrong. I've only joined in the last month so I wasn't here when Tater and Anduin messed with the board the first time. If it was half as good as this, I bet it was something.

I did kinda enjoy the shock of seeing a pink and purple Entmoot. (Except for the spots in my vision when I looked away) A big part of life is a boring routine and it's good to be shaken out of it every now and then. As for ever doing it again (or something like it), my only request is that it not involve the colors pink and purple.

Yeah, it was kinda strange. I remember blinking at the screen saying 'Quoi?' And I really bought Tater's explanation of the flipping computer! I was thinking, poor Tater, everything's going wrong and he can't help it. I actually felt sorry for him! That was untill the names changed a bit to smartly and then the picture on the banner. I'm on to you now, Tater! I (hope I) won't get fooled again that easlily!

LOL Earniel, new to computers are we? When an anonymous acomplice gave me the idea of blaming it on the database I was sure no one would believe it, but this individual said they had experiance with ppl who just don't get computers, and that they think it's all magic anyways. Boy were they right!

I thought it was something out an X-Files episode, with the computers getting minds of their own and everything. It had me going for a while too. I will never be fooled again!

Oh and Earniel: Nice French.

I must admit, you had me fooled, Tater, and fooled good. Even after the names changed I still believed the colors were b/c of a computer and then it hit me: If the names were on purpose, why would the colors not be? I felt extremely stupid at that moment...kinda do now...

Just remember this one important fact: if anything ever goes wrong with color or ranks again - it was done on purpose

Don't tell people that. I'm hoping people will forget. I had all kinds of explanations as to why things were happening. Tater just couldn't say some of them because he didn't think he could keep a straight face about it. Which I didn't exactly understand since no one would be able to see his face.

Dude, that was hardly the first time....first time on vB perhaps, but not first time in Entmoot history. Here, this one dates back to 1999!!!

Oh come on, how can you even compare that? The only thing from the old days that comes remotely close is Ryangate. Oh, and liz when we messed with the moot was almost a year ago, long before the VBulletin days.

No, not new to computers, just a little naieve. I even felt sorry for you! And computers can be a drat, but they don't change those titles that smart. Next time, I won't fall for it, though. From now on I will consider everything you say as a possible hoax. Tell me I stray of topic, I won't believe ya. Tel me this thread doesn't belong here, I'm not buying. Tell me I'm spamming, I'll just ignore you. Tell me Bush is a smart man, I'll call those nice men in white uniforms who will take you to a nice room with those soft matrasses on the walls..

I don't think discussing Bush belongs in this thread. You should take it elsewhere.

Bush stays OUT please . . . even the mention of his name bothers me.
I too bought the thing about the screwed up database . . . until it got too smart for a computer to do (changing titles and such). But I am one of those fools who doesn't know the first thing about computers, so fooling me isn't hard.
While I was going a little nutso and wanting to change it back, I must admit that aside from being very annoying, it was FUN. I had a great time watching other mooters reactions and protesting the (annoying) pink and purple. Although it was a relief to have it all changed back again at the end . . . I loved it. March 22 and 23 were some of the most hilarious days I'd ever spent on the Moot.
However, I didn't know about this buisiness with un-modding Tater, Nolendil, and CBG, and banning Jerseydevil . . . Banning Jerseydevil went a little over the top, if you ask me . . . damn, there's a reason nobody asked me.
Actually, it would be interesting to see if it would be nearly as fun if you screwed up the Moot again when we all knew what was going on . . . Well, if you ever need more accomplices . . . count me in! (please don't ban me for saying that!)

But, I must pay respects to HOBBIT for saving my eyesight.
