I'm sorry some of you have a hard time dealing with a literally HARMLESS joke on April FOOLS. I'd hate to see how you will deal with the real world when you get older. I mean, getting shook up over a Pokemon forum online where nothing bad even happened? I'd hate to see a real catastrophe happen to you on a day where you don't expect bad things to happen. I.e. The other 364 days of the year.

Seriously, get over it. Find something REAL to get mad about. Some of you are worse than 8 and 9 year olds I know.

Dealing with it quite well, seeing as how I'm older than you. I honestly don't care what happened, more or less the unprofessional and poor taste your joke caused. You also don't seem to realize the kind of widespread panic and insanity it really could cause and the frustration it is no doubt taking upon your moderating staff who have to deal with the crazy people who are mad about it.

Bad taste in jokes. Seriously, you cannot blame people for getting mad about it, seeing as how some of your members really are dedicated to this site and were probably going absolutely nuts when they saw this "joke" go off, considering that some of your members pretty much live their lives (unfortunately) at this site.

In addition, it once again makes you look unprofessional. Do you want your site to be continuously referred to as "The Pokemon site that really shows its childish colors"? Or do you want some legitimate credibility for once? Its no wonder so many people lose respect for this site.

Legitimate credibility? My site has plenty of credibility. You don't even know what you are talking about.

What about the site going down last year? What about Phione? What about the prerelease scans? Just saying, credibility isn't 'Beach's strength.

This was a stupid move. Think about it. If you'll go to this much trouble playing a joke, I for one know that I can't believe anything posted on PokeBeach. How do we know that every new scan or translation that you post isn't a fake?
I know that I'm not going to be sending any PMs to any of the moderators here, unless it's necessary, as well.

Also, it's not fair to all those people who spammed like crazy. They were kind of tricked into it. You knew that there would be chaos, you say, so surely you knew that the whole forum would turn into a disaster full of flaming and spamming.

You have been warned.
 
This was halarious! I can't wait for next year. It would of been even more funny if HS actually did hack it without letting WPM know!

Another sour grape.

A) they barely went ot any trouble. It was a joke.

B) You can believe anything on the beach that isn't posted on April 1st. this is because you should never believe anything anywhere on april 1st. Ever.

C) It was a great move. It was a laugh and a lot of fun - like you are meant to have on a forum.

D) If you say this that means you must never have pranked/April Foolsed someone in your life. If this is true, get a life. If not, you really can't say stuff like that. Its just being a hypocrit.


BTWs, I'm not trying to flame anyone here, I just hate to see people being so grumpy and formal abotu all this.

It was a JOKE! Honestly, it was April the 1st, it's the day where people are allowed to play jokes. If you can't take a joke, then what can you take? Not much, apparently. PokeBeach does a lot more real stuff than fake. Just because you guys get messed with here and there, doesn't mean that a site should lose credibility. People shouldn't spam, no matter what. They are responsible for whatever happens to them.

That is all that I have to say.
You guys seriously surprise me. For the sake of Ganon: It was a JOKE!

Kinda confusing, but I disagree with whoever says pokebeach has no credibility. Any website as massive and popular as this, will have mistakes, and flaws here and their. Pokebeach is one of the most well-kept pokemon sites in my opiniom.

That would be funny. Please HolyStar, think about this for next year.
 
I have to say, it was quite interesting. Although, your planning wasn't exactly perfect. During WPM's and HS's "chat" in the chatroom, and when Xous gave HS the usertag, those were the flaws. Xous got the usertag finished in less than a minute, thus meaning it was most likely finished beforehand. The conversation between WPM and HS was just...too fail, although it was a nice joke :D

I understand WHAT you tried to prove, but you DIDN'T prove it. I understand exactly what you mean by forgive and forget, yet it's much easier said than done.
 
In retrospect, this was very funny. At first, I thought this was an April Fools joke, but then Rivallz was "banned", so I thought it was serious. The whole thing got funnier when everybody freaked out. What I'll never forget is when someone made a typo and called HolyStar "Hokystar". You got me good, Pokebeach.:p
 
Haha I have to give you guys props, not only was it a great joke but when you figured it out and began to play along, hilarious. I have to give you all props, especially HS, great!
 
Mmm. Sounds like I missed out on a good show. I just skipped the day thinking something "distracting" would be going on.

While the April Fools thing was frighteningly forseeable, I figured the joke wasn't admining people to have Bela blow things up, but rather to fulfill HS:F's prediction (which didn't wind up happening, sadly) and then to admin someone like CC or very moody like, nevermind. Good thing you didn't though, or the mass exodus that would have followed would have been a permanent one. Plus, I've already sworn that if Juliacoolio becomes an admin I'm going to quit life and become a crackwh... forget it. Let's just say I liked your idea better.

LOL that was me. But ya, nice job HS!

The even funnier thing is that that's not possible. WPM owns the site. He has passwords that HS didn't have as an admin of the forum. I'm fairly certain that nobody buy WPM can even edit WPM's account.
 
^No, it is possible. It is actually quite easy if you have the right program, the downfall is that it is illegal.

That would be a horrible idea for an April Fool's prank then :p
