If this is a joke....

Jokes over now pal.

If this is some kind of inside "prank". I'm going to be extremely pissed off (more than I already am). Jokes are all well and good, but they cross the line when they cause the majority of your members to become angry and curse your site. It's things like this that keep me off of other message boards and sites. I come to ATS because it is different, because it is held to a higher standard. Then we get this. If we find this is an inside joke, I may just walk away from ATS for good.

Very, very bad taste.

Stop your damn whining guys.


I think it was funny and proably most of the people thought it was funny. Its over, get over it...

I thought it was a kick ass job on thier end....

THANK GOD! I'm still pissed though.

You would not believe this, but,,,,... errrr, I kinda enjoy this. Weird huh? At least a break away from a routine

But until now, not sure what is this all about

*Rings a huge gargantuan COW BELL*
DING a LING DING a LING

Um, the klown said you all should pick TREAT, not TRICK!

Trick, or treat for crying out loud... a most obvious given.

How ever have no fear ADVISOR is here!

Oh and have some cheese with your WHINE...


Some people....

Yeah. Kinda fun. Just aggravating. I'll calm down and realize it was pretty interesting. Just a slap in the face to start the day!

What I've gained from this is a new list of members who have no sense of humor. The good captain thought this was fairly funny.

“Not a shred of evidence occurs in favor of the idea that life is serious.”
-Beverly Sills

“Humor is perhaps a sense of intellectual perspective: an awareness that some things are really important, others not; and that the two kinds are most oddly jumbled in everyday affairs.”
-Christopher Morley

“Funny is an attitude.”
-Flip Wilson

“The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up.”
- Mark Twain

“Good humor is one of the best articles of dress one can wear in society.”
- William Makepeace Thackeray

I thought it was pretty funny! Especially the 'scrabble around and find out what the hell is going on' part.



I don't see why people were getting wound up.

I'm lost. I picked trick and treat, and got forwarded to the front page each time.

Whassupwitdat?

I think it was pretty good.
If this is all you have to worry about in your life, you're pretty well off

It seems like some would rather the tedium of bitching at each other rather than have some fun. :shk:

Apparently, not logging in prevented any odd occurences; other than reading the membership go bananas over a prank that only affected logged in users.

Makes me wonder what casual visitors thought of this site.

I can not believe the upset people, lighten up. Life is to short to get Pissed off over a little fun.

Hey, I thought it was pretty funny. And I was starting to figure out how to understand the code when it was set back to normal.

I dread to think what they think when were normal, let alone when something like this happens!

They probaly thought "What a bunch of whiny complainers."

Why nothing bad at all. They probably didn't even notice.
