April Fools "Dev Ban" Planning

Post by **Fullforce** » 2007-03-29 23:05

'[R-DEV wrote:matt.b']I think you should take it to the limit & mock up a Ministry of Defence document that outlines legal action against the PR team due to classified reference material being supplied to the devs (eg. ukforce & the armor reticules). Gaz/ukforce/egg could be detained for questioning as part of the ongoing war on terror, & all other devs have had their homes raided & computers confiscated by local law-enforcement agencies. The mod will thus be ended, just at the point that we discovered how to implement fast-roping.

Oh god, winner. Can we knock this up in time?

There's a typo in the letter. Respectively is spelled incorrectly close to 4)

Guys, just make sure that as soon as it is announced that everything was a joke, that the word is spread around quick. Bad news spread very quickly, and this is something that will cause a lot of talking, etc..

You can also add that ANY servers running the Project Reality Mod will be under investigation in the near future? Scare the heck out of server admins!

haha love offence #3

you need to remove that "4)" which has nothing next to it, the '2002' stamp on the second page & the 'requiry' bit at the start.

Will begin sorting out those docs.

heh maybe a bit ott with the police stuff

you should mysteriously delete the thread later & someone else start some new cryptic ones about pm's/msn not working, or having to log in from an internet cafe cos your net was shut down.

Post by **Evilhomer** » 2007-03-30 10:53

I will delete it in a few hours lol. Nice touch with your other login I have to admit.

Looks great! Can't wait to see the reaction.

Oh, and 3rd paragraph, replace "it's" with "its"

Need to calm it down, or something - looks like some are starting to click on ?

Maybe Egg or someone close the thread, as a "precaution" with some kind of statement, and a bollocking to all Devs - for making this public?
