Re: What? No April's Fool Change?

Irocz and Dirk were the main people doing the past pranks. It hasn't been done in 3 or 4 years. I actually had one for this year but, for whatever reason, didn't go through with it. Maybe next year?

Really, in my opinion, it's a bit lost when members come to expect it. It's not so much an April Fools when you know it's going to happen. Just like I've come to know Google to do their yearly April Fool prank, and like this year, when I read their Google Motion news link on the homepage, I knew what it was before even reading further.

It could happen again. There are many more April Fools Days to come yet.
