Why isn't Jan admin anymore, and stuffradio and Dan not mods anymore and why are two completely random people mods now?

It's funny how even though Dan isn't a mod anymore, he was able to unlock a thread, post, then lock it again. :rolleyes:

WHT's was better last year. They made a fake "Admin-only" forum which had a lot of threads about the username you logged on with. Such as:
(Username) spams too much!
(Username) is abusive!
Yet I didn't register, so it said "Unregistered spams too much" etc.

They're upside-down, that's kind of clever actually.
I'm hoping to hear what the joke about Tacid is. I mean powweb, hostgator, a name that everyone knows (and, let's be honest, nobody likes) would have been funnier, but I've never heard of Tacid...

Agreed... What's stupid about the WHT thing is they actually converted last night! Before April Fools Day!
It's grown old now... I can't find half the crap I am looking for!
Oh and go type "Unlimited Forum" in google ;)

Apparently, Tacid was a scam or something as I read here:
http://freewebspace.net/forums/showthread.php?t=5609
I think they did that on purpose? (Dan and Jan posting in an old thread I mean)

Mhmm, I saw that too. It's not hard to create a post-dated post in vB with a little database modification :p I still think it would have been funnier to get together with a real host. Even Dreamhost would have been funny, even though everyone mysteriously loves them.
Or Robert's old host. That would have been a good inside joke.
Never mind, I think you're right - it was a setup, Dan and Jan posting in an old thread.

It took you guys long enough to cop it.
Me and stuffradio were logged in as Tacid - Tony and Tacid - Paul for well over an hour. I had to post a reply to 2 or 3 threads before anyone made any observation. Jan was invisible all along and laughing her Aussie --- off. :lol:

The big plan didn't go ahead on either forum as planned unfortunately due to managerial limitations, but that would have caused a lot of fireworks and cussing believe me :D

On either forum? So WHT and FWS are affiliated?

April 1st, 2008, 23:42
Well, actually, I saw pretty much as soon as Tacid Paul, and Tacid Tony came online. I made a post stating it must be your April fool's joke this year.
Then I reconsidered, and deleted my post to see if anyone would fall for it. Turns out the FWS community is too smart for your antics :P.

It's a shame it didn't work out though. :(

Oh please tell us the big plan :D
Also, it was a little bit obvious when all the Mods/Admins were put down to normal user titles and Matt8 was still able to edit Tony's thread and lock it and Dan was able to unlock it so he could post about how the mod privileges had been taken away and then lock it again :lol:

I was fooled for like 1 sec then I checked the date & edited my post in TTR.
Then when the thread in TTR was put back with all our posts removed I was 100% sure.

I was disappointed as well. If we would have actually "merged" for a day like we had hoped, you all would have shat yourself :)

Lol, Ya but you guys gave the impression that you were no longer mods, just normal members ;) And can a normal member reply "You were quick at removing us as Mods." in a locked thread? :fangel:

Not a whole lot sadly... we wanted to see if we could "merge" with WHT for a day or something, that didn't happen. No one said anything about April Fools until close to the end of last month, so I took initiative and started the conversation. Peo wasn't/isn't here yet so maybe it could've been better? No idea.
