I must admit that I was taken in by this prank, but only for about half an hour. Once I realized the server had flipped and suddenly there were 20+ newbie trolls cavorting around and spewing intellectual sewage into the catbox, the rest kinda fell into place. Besides, I hardly believe that anyone would C! some of the stuff that ended up on the front page.

This is not to say that I'm boasting or anything. While the prank was funny—I giggled like a little German schoolgirl reading catbox messages from Sophana Peters and sloppyjoe—it was only entertaining for about an hour. I dunno, I'm sure everyone involved had a grand old time, and I admit I felt like creating an alter-ego and jumping into the fray myself, but after the hours of trolls, and some of the users still not understanding what was going on, it started to get old very quick. Eventually I became semi-disgusted and logged off.

I'm sorry if my sense of humor was taxed, but a joke told a hundred times looses a bit of its gloss.


Update: It was hilarious watching users think they were gaining XP from punch thyself, though.
Update #2: I laughed at Demeter's FwuffyBunny website for a good ten minutes.
