Is pranking Josh unfair?
« on: January 27, 2011, 03:25 AM »
I ask you, is it?

Here is what DC member and prankster Josh saw when the forum came back online for everyone else.  Only Josh saw this:

more from the irc channel after he first saw it:
Quote
<Metshrine> MOUSER!!!!!!!
<Metshrine> WTF!!!!!
<Metshrine> you should know to NEVER touch this shit
<Metshrine> You are like Kevin from the office
<Metshrine> They don't even let him have full internet access
<Metshrine> perhaps we should restrict you like that..

actually he was remarkably calm about it, considering.  he should have known it was a joke though because if we really lost a years worth of forum posts i'd be screaming out the window and they'd have to put me in a straight jacket.

That is funny, though. Most tech issues are mere temporary pleasures (or pains) and tend to morph into even more temporary concerns. If you stripped my first 2,600 posts from here (out of 2,651), I wouldn't notice!

While this prank was good, it could have been even better. Therefore, Josh hasn't been pranked enough. He deserves more...lots more.  :D

It is DC tradition to prank josh whenever the site is upgraded.
I tried my best this time, making it so when Josh visited the site he saw only the funny video announcing the pending upgrade, full screen, and then an error message.

But josh seems to have caught on to how to defeat my attempts by just waiting for me to go crazy wondering why he wasn't complaining  >:(
