Some of these would be kind of upsetting.

April Fools is a stupid tradition and needs to stop.

I don't understand how anyone derives fun from pranks.

I'm serious here.

Add "must take a joke" to the rules or else they get a warning if they take it too seriously.

I wanted to make some second accounts who parody various PPR regulars (including myself) for the day but I did not get mod approval :( lol

Make members names be green to trick other members that they are mods.

If I had gotten up earlier I was going to talk to some mods and circulate a fake petition asking for the banning of another member. I don't know who I would pick, but I would want to pick the absolute nicest and unoffensive member here, so people would go "Huh?" and I would say that I have reason to believe that they have ties to Al Queda or some such lol.

I would have asked that member first to see if they were ok about being in on the joke. Maybe when people started PMing them about the petition they could make these supsicious comments like "What EXACTLY made them think that?" and start freaking out over it where it looked like they had been discovered.

Maybe the CIA not Al Queda or something.

But, it's too late in the day now to do it. Maybe next year.

Sometimes, I think, for me, every day is April Fool's Day :P

Someone sort of did that in 2010 during the whole moderator purge but he did it to troll and to provoke people. Then he posted it at I2. I knew about it because he was my online friend and told me about it as he did it. He knew the consequences but didn't care. He just wanted to take advantage during the whole thing. I think there were others but none of them were my friends and I didn't know who they were. I know one came here and pretended to be Jesus Christ and I didn't know who that person was. I am sure some people here remember the whole incident since they were members here at the time it happened.

If you are going to do that next year, you have to plan it before the day comes and it would have to be done through PM but since the cat it out of the bag, everyone would know it's a joke unless they forgot about your idea.

I remember the moderator purge and the guy who was trolling. Those weren't happy times for me.
