Today being April First

[ICountFrom0]

We know that mod makers like those little pranks, but rarely bother to optomize them.

So, let us share the various things they do to us here, today.

Let us also include screenshots, and techniques for turning OFF the little tricks being played on us today.


Oh, and if you have a favorite website doing an amusing prank, please do post it, or tell us about it.


First prank found:

Oh man! And I can’t see it in person because I’m away! Boo...

Also re the MC website one: I feel strangely nostalgic now...

Those are brilliant, but I think my favourite is the Draconic Reactor. It’s reaction is much like mine when thinking about it:

Nope. Nope nope nope nope nope

First a lead-in...

My favorite subreddit r/PrequelMemes has a certain animosity with another subreddit called r/SequelMemes. There was a recent "meme war" which ended prematurely. It was rumored that it ended due to one of the mods being doxxed. This was never confirmed, nor denied.

Now today, they decided to switch subreddits; r/PrequelMemes in on r/SequelMemes, and r/SequelMemes is on r/PrequelMemes. Now everyone is confused on where to post what content, because on r/SequelMemes they don't allow prequels, and on r/PrequelMemes they don't allow sequels. You would think that you just post how you normally would on a regular day, but the mods are enforcing the rules of the opposite subreddit.

There was a most excellent one on these very boards a few years back.

At first glance, it was a rant about all the hotbutton topics, RP2, mod pack permissions... all that garbage. Then you looked at the last word of every paragraph and realized yo'd just been rickrolled.

Also, a couple of years ago, DW20 did a Mod Spotlight on this obscure mod called 'Minecraft'.

Portal Gun's rain of chicken's still amuses me.

 

[Reddis]

The graphic changes were very irritating. There needs to be a way to shut that crap off.

 

[KingTriaxx]

I just played an older pack that wasn't affected.

Today, the sixth day of April.

And here I was putting whoopee cushions on my sibling's seats. Sometimes you've just gotta go old school

(hes' 5 and found it hilarious BTW)
