They are misleading and clog up the page with useless posts. Thanks.

Only 43 minutes left to have to deal with them. They should drop quick.

I did not make mine to be funny. I made it to shock the reader kind of like the Accuweather taking over thread or shuting down storm2k for 5 days.

Justify all you want - it doesn't change the fact that the end of your post said APRIL FOOLS, strongly implying a "joke" as opposed to "shock".

As a Katrina survivor, now left with a SIGNIFICANT and life-changing impact on both my wife and me, our grown children, and my entire family here in Biloxi, I can assure you we need no more "shock"...

I sincerely hope you read and took seriously the post that Tampa Bay Hurricane made in the now-locked thread you created. It is advice that you, and other forum members with a mindset similar to yours, would be well in taking.

There is no justifing the death of human beings. I suggest you do yourself a favor and stop debating it. Seriously.

If you have nothing to say, then it's better to keep your mouth shut.

Not directed to you Matt alone, it's to everybody who's made a April Fool's joke that - well I can't say it. It's just that a thread that's a joke about a major calamity happening is different from a joke about Accuwx or the board shutting down. It gets to the point where it's scary, not funny.

That's all I have to say before this thread is inevitably locked.

One or two, at the most three, threads are OK, but people have jumped with this April Fools thing and like many are saying, it's not funny anymore.

Remember, after you see the first one that makes you remember it's (was) April Fools, then you are prepare for the next ones.

Fooling someone does not have to be funny or tasteful. April fools day is made to fool someone then they look down the page in say o shoot I fall for it. I made that to cause to fool not to be funny...Heck I thought it was sicking looking back on it.


Lets be friendly to each other. It supposed to be a interesting day of jokes and shocks. :ggreen:
