Good joke or not?

[Colin]

There were probably a lot of Chart Analysts rush-recording data and tearing their hair out because of this.

Lol, at least now I have a back up of the site on my hard drive should anything actually happen for real

Lol! I didn't say that...? It was that Toddler Col89

Excuse me? Have you any reason to be so personal against me?

[JJB]

It was a nasty joke. It does show though
a) people should save their work
b)Non-Chart users have ridicule for people who like that stuff
c)people who over-re-acted cannot simply return with any credibility! They'll be forever be labelled 'drama queens'.


Perhaps people should cut down using Forums/Twitter/Facebook.

There was a lot of comment on the lines of 'get a life'. You could say that to anyone who goes on the Net. I rarely do ( I mean for 'social' reasons). It was odd one group of Internet Forum users ctiticising another for this...lol!

Was a user being 'banned' part of the act?

JohnnyBoy was genuinely banned. Matthew_Dixon's ban was a joke by Star, which should have been obvious, as Star isn't a mod or admin.

[Muzikritik]

It's funny, I like that it was a drunken rambling that people just kept kicking around.

Don't get how or why people are calling it an April Fools prank. How can it be, four days beforehand?

Just messing!

It wasn't an April Fools prank, exactly! One of my favourite things about this thread is people saying they knew it was one all along, when it never was! Obviously we couldn't leave this running forever and today became an obvious time to end it, but it wasn't an AF and so it can't be a bad or boring one!

I also love how some moderators jumped in despite not even being briefed, JimJim especially and Matthew which surprised but tickled me! And that other mods were totally clueless!

Thirdly I loved finding out which of you are total drama queens, which are absolute miseries and which of you are prepared for some fun and excitement and love the site...

Thanks for giving the Reaper a whistle in my direction Graham but as I wasn't lying when I swore on my life that the original post wasn't April Fools related, he won't be necessary.

I loved it!

flop

[Virgostar]

I thought it was pretty good. I mean come on everyone, if this site were to close for realz, don't you think there would've been a far more official announcement made on here (presumably by Lars himself) than some drunken rambling taken from Mike/Thriller's Facebook? (Although I admit I did get swept up for a wee minute...until a post of Adam's gave it away for me.)

I wasn't around for HevMix last year sadly, so I can't compare it to that, but for sheer hysteria and mania, this one's been the best I've seen in all my time here. Cept I got the 404 message at 8:55 this morning, so whoever was in charge of this got in 5 minutes early by my (albeit dodgy) calculations....

[Spartan]

I don't think the actually joke itself was that funny (as it was kinda obvious that the site wouldn't close), but it led to some hilarious reactions and that made it decent.

Doesn't beat HevMix though. #justsayin

Everyone who was participated in this "joke" is a serious asshole !

Quoted for emphasis.

I also feel very sorry for the people who spent the last couple of days saving their data in panic.. Just because you're:
-in on the joke
-not fussed about chart data
doesn't excuse some of the hate that a lot of people who overreacted (as I still think it was a bit OTT by some) got.

I went out, came home and when I woke up it had already finished... plus it was way too transparent. Hevmix was far better

Unfunny. In poor taste. Floptastic.

Any joke that results in a member getting a permanent ban isn't funny

Johnny, thanks for your PM ~ I did reply, but minutes later I was shocked to learn you'd been banned, so I'm guessing you didn't read my response.

Last night, I came close to cancelling all the survivors I have lined up, even though I didn't for a moment believe ukmix was going to close. I don't suppose it will happen, but I think the least mods can do is to invite johnnyboy to re-join us ~ I'm certain, if it wasn't for this so-called 'joke', he would never have been banned in the first place.

[samra]

What memes?? What thread?? Why has everything been taken down. Us Aussies were all asleep.

All I got to see before I went to bed last night was the 'matthewdixon has been banned' thread.

It was a good joke btw. You didn't fool me but it's funny hearing the reactions some people have had.

[JimJim]

Creating multiple accounts and personally attacking other members are both unacceptable, if you have an issue with this please PM an admin.

The thread was open for three days!

Anyways, just for the nostalgia and entertainment value here are all the memes I made and there's a lot of them...

Oh my... if this joke caused Timmy saying explicit word, then it's hella funny
