Last year's joke was much better.

 

[minhsan]

Guys just shut the hell up and get over it yeah it sucks big time but normmatt has a plan of his own so shut up and ride it out till normmatt is done with his now OS. god i mean how many people are pissed at this but dont rant about how much it sucks its gonna suck today just as bad as it will tomorrow. i mean yeah its posted on april 1 but how many things arent that are bad news. so if you would and i bet i speak for a lot of people when i say this.... THIS IS REAL SO ****ING DEAL WITH IT!!!!

I still have the site banner (with the CNET logo) saved somewhere. Fark's is pretty good, too. Oh, and Reddit. But Google always seems to have the best. GBATemp really likes to mess with people with terrible, depressing news; nothing ever funny or just downright silly (3D Chrome).

I am gonna miss akAIO now. At least when it was in the hands of our fellow GBAtemp members. All I can look up to is nOS. And with MenuDO.... I am not sure what is happening now...

Did anyone notice Another World posting
As of today this is real

Nice one Another World. Even though I didn't believe it it sure did spark some type of emotional response.

 

[p1ngpong]

Well the "emotional response" was almost completely "this is an obvious lame April fool" sorry, try harder next year guys. Not a good prank at all.

Oh god, even Toni is sucking up to them and deleting our posts. XD

Was just playing along....

Haha, you got me. I think I've learned the lesson to stay away from this site on April Fool's day. GG Gbatemp.

 

[Splych]

LOL> And I thought this was totally real xD

 

[Another World]

eh, i had fun. =)

i'm very happy with everyone who thought it was lame, it means i upset'ed you. hehe. everyone who wants to do better, work hard, get promoted to staff, and post your own april fool's joke next year. until then stop acting like you could have come up with something better. i've yet to see a post by any of you [complainers] with your own joke.

thanks toni, your edits were great. it kept the joke alive that much longer!

yea so the two things that gave it away...

i called them team acekart, but later said that was a typo. but it was obvious that it wasn't, if you follow any of my posts you know i don't post anything with out researching and if i post a mistake, i fix it.

i did put "as of today" in one of my responses. that’s because as of the this day, the 1st of april, it was "real."

it was obvious it was a joke but it seems some people took it way to seriously. a few people were in such distraught over the news! HAHA.

yea, i had fun.

I guess this April's Fool also let the community to pass a message: It's only when something like this that really happens that we remember how useful you were. Hope that you continue all this generous work for the common mortals that most of us are

pwnt :o~

ps this can die now ok

 

[SonicRax]

... You know, I can't believe I fell for this. DAMN YOU ANOTHER WORLD. D:

 

[MUDjoe2]

I wonder how many people threw out their Acekards today, haha.

 

[JPH]

Sorry for closing, figured the new topic would be used for the April Fools aftermath discussion.

Enjoy ranting, but be nice about it yo.

*hi-five Another World*

Of course all that counts is the pranker had his fun, thats the point of pranking!

But next year boys, if Im staff (yeah right) I shall help you organise a prank that will bring every member of this forum down to their knees!

I had fun too.....I didn't want to remove all posts, but just enough of them so it looks like thread is moderated, and we're serious!
Nice job on this! Nothing big, but big enough to worry some people, and piss off some more!
