April Fools Day pranks banned

Just seen over in the RHP closed Beta update thread in site ideas that Russ is considering banning April Fools day pranks due to a spate of hate posting over at another chess site. Jeez this place sucks worse.

Your link is from 2001 nice try though! 😛 🙂

You did manage to remind everyone it was April fools day though. 🙂 (Spoil Sport) 😛

To know the link related to a post from 2001 you must have taken the bait and followed the link. (Hence falling for the prank).

@divegester: I never read anything of that kind in the closed beat testing thread...

I know you see yourself as chain-yanker in charge, but this is unacceptable.
