I've honestly had enough of this drama. If you have any personal issues with mods, please take it to the PM system instead of voicing your angst out here. It was an April Fool's Joke: get over it. Yes, it turned out worse than we anticipated in retrospect, but these things happen. Grow a pair and move on. I've heard enough whining for one day. Even Blade, who you've all made out to be this martyr for the cause, has manned up and grown a pair, so the rest of you can stop it. April Fool's has passed, so this topic is more or less defunct. If anyone tries to make any more unnecessary drama, this will be locked.
It was a shame no one took notice of the other threads we made and instead concentrated on the two threads that attacked members, but maybe that was to be expected. Still, at least you were only being fake-insulted. There's tonnes of posts referring to me in the Mod Forum archives from years ago that would make some of the insults you guys received look very tame. I didn't get upset, I just laughed that some mods and ex-mods used to have so much hate aimed at me, and then didn't have the balls to confront me about it.
