Blue Stars (April Fool's Day)
At the time of this posting, I note that everyone with a star is now a blue star. A&S will really get interesting with this many MODS running around.

Except that you can't moderate, even so. Or are moderators simply going to be anonymous in the future?

Throw the stick!!!!
Apparently none of us have mod priviledges either. Either that or mine have just been revoked.

I think a GOLD star for Sheldon would be nice...but apparently he would be too modest to accept it anyway .

Now that we have Blue Stars, the mods will have to charge theirs to red.
Now the Red-bellied Sneetches had bellies with red stars.
The Blue-bellied Sneetches had blue upon thars.
The stars weren't so big; they were really quite small.
You would think such a thing wouldn't matter at all.
But because they had blue stars, all the Blue-bellied Sneetches
would brag, "We're the best kind of Sneetch on the beaches."

Ok all you new mods, what I need you to do is PM lowcel, our acting Moderator HR manager, and ask him about your new benifits plan. *mischevious grin*

If this is an April fools joke, I'm not laughing. I've always hated them, always will & I have good reason for it. I was injured & lost a good friend due to an April Fools joke played on the both of us by someone else that went wrong. Either make me a mod. or change my star back to red, now.

Now if there was a physical risk involved, I'd be right there with ya, but something truly harmless? Differentiation is a valuable skill!

The sad thing is tonight on the news there will another story as there is every year on April 1st about someone who played a joke on someone else & someone was either killed or hurt as a result. THe person who played the joke will be seen being led away by the police. Why can't people just respect others & not do mean **** to them?
Deputyjones in all your years of law enforcment have you ever had to respond to a call where this happened? How about the others in your department? What about responding to any type of call that involves this day of the year? Even if someone did not get hurt, but let's say property was damaged as a result?

I read news report about someone who was hurt because of an internet forum post.
Wow, maybe we should stop posting as well...

I just checked the mod queue - no reports of injuries from the blue stars.

Making you a mod would be the best April Fool's joke. Seriously, if this place bothers you so much, just stop coming around. I would be happy to refund your member fee personally.
