Well April Fools Day is tomorrow. What do you predict the staff will do this year.

I'd guess with all the MLP going around Bzpower will change to My Little Power.

Edited by Oxymoronaphobia, Mar 31 2012 - 10:12 PM.

I AM TAKANUINUVA THE TOA NUVA OF LIGHT! FEAR MY WRATH MAKUTA SCUM!

Even when things look there worst. And the shadow of evil is upon us. Remember that as long as we hope for the best. Light will appear and overcome the darkness.

Doubt it will be anything MLP related (that may drive people away). Judging from the fear stuff I'm going to say BZP will become Fear Zone Power where you will meet your worst nightmares. Maybe not exactly like that but probably something along those lines, or they might just switch everyone's username colors. We'll just wait and see.

What makes you think there will be a prank? April 1st is no different from any other day.

This coming from a Premier Forum Mentor. (AKA STAFF)

I can't wait for all the complaining tomorrow.

"Ugh doing nothing is the worst April Fool's joke"

Like our plan is that us being lazy was supposed to somehow impress you?

Ya'll already did that before.

I think for April Fools, they'll actually act like staff.

It wasn't something we 'did'. We just didn't do anything and people assumed that was the miraculous joke?

But if they did, I have no idea what they will do. :P

Rule of thirds. Something is always funny the first three times. They could potentially do this twice more and still consider it a joke.

No clue. Today's the 1st, and I don't see anything so far. My guess is, they'll delay it until a day or two after to initiate the prank so we don't expect it coming.

All the rowboats, in the paintings 

They keep trying to row away

And the captains' worried faces

Stay contorted and staring at the waves

 

They keep hanging in their golden frames

For forever, forever and a day

All the rowboats, in oil paintings

They keep trying to row away, row away

I currently need help with links in my library.

Thank you for your consideration.

Well, the only thing I've seen that's out-of-sorts is the fact there's a contest. No, not in BBC, or RPG, or Comics, or SS. None of those. It's in the Q&A forum. Go look, I'm not lieing.

April Fools is THE day of pranks. You are allowed to go play all these pranks and everyone else can too. It happens on April 1st, so you only have one day.

Maybe the joke is coming, we're just being told there isn't one. Or the joke is that April Fool's Day (funny history behind it, actually) doesn't exist on BZPower.

Doubt it will be anything MLP related (that may drive people away).


In 2005, BZP had KimPower, where they claimed they were selling the site to a Kim Possible fan. Boy was there outrage and we got fooled. Great times. My Little Power would actually work really well for a turnaround in lack of member pranking. But BZP has become so ungullible after those pranks so many years ago.

True. It's like every single prank has been done already and those that haven't been, people would guess. For example, MLP is so hot right now on the rest of the internet that to do it here would seem almost expected. Everyone(everypony?) would give a collective "meh, saw that coming" and go on with their normal posting. To do nothing would be slightly unexpected since they've done it before.

But, whatever you want to do is fine.

Like I said, I'm down with a good prank.

If the staff were going to pull something, wouldn't they have done it by now?
