Well, as many people eventually hinted at, the whole Captain SeaBass and Bass Fishing Forums was a joke meant for a little prank on a day known for it by nearly everyone.

Since the matter was taken to an actual site by that name and brought to their attention, the prank has been called off. I admit this is my fault since I picked the name, I should have went to their site to let the Admin's know about it there at first. The thing is, I just randomly picked a website not really knowing it'd be a legit message board. Still, no excuse.

Lord Golbez wasn't the one who did all of this so there should be no anger focused on him. He was kind enough to play along and post wherever needed to try and make this a successful, but still harmless prank. No one can sit there and say this prank idea caused any harm. It was just an idea, to get people riled up, throw some ideas out there, and in the end when the truth is revealed, eh something to remember, laugh about, add to the history books.

If it went too far and some of you may have gotten "pissed" or "lost trust" in any of us, know it wasn't Lord Golbez's idea and he does not deserve an ounce of the blame. Hell, it's not even April 1st and the jokes over. lol

Once again, sorry for the prank, the fake member account created, the announcement, the fake forum that lasted 3 hours. All in the name of fun.
 
Honestly, we were just trying to have a little fun with you guys and play a prank. We never meant any real harm at all. So please don't PM Lord Golbez bitching at him or anything. If you want to take your anger out on somebody take it out on me and Busta. Just remember, a little harmless fun never hurt anybody. We just wanted to joke around and have fun with you guys.

Hey! What about me? :( I want to be blamed too. xD

But yes, it was all for good fun and quite amusing trying to convince the staff members that something mysterious was up, and we apologize if it annoyed some of you, but at the end of the day, the joke failed anyway. :D Some of you probably wondered, "Why a seabass fishing forum of all things?" I wondered that too, but I figured it's enough hint to make you guys realize that yes, everything was not serious and it was just a playful prank.

As for LG, I'm still amazed that he participated with us. Typically he's all 'serious business' and whatnot. :wacky: What he said in his announcement was not actually his own words, if you get what I mean.

So hopefully you guys got a kick out of that one!
 
Okay okay blame Mitsuki too! :lol: But yeah, everything she said about, it really was in just good fun. We do apologize if we've angered any of you, so please forgive us! We just wanted to have with you and that's all. Hey look at it this way, at least we're fun and down to earth admins who like to play and not all serious all the time.
 
I really dont think anybody will be too mad about this. Tbh I figured it was a joke from the beginning, what bass fishing site would want to buy a FF forum? :huh: And anybody that does get really mad and lost faith in you guys, just needs to calm down. Because its like you said, it was just a harmless joke and I think most people here have a good enough sense of humor to not get pissed about it.

It was a good one though, and if it was true I would have to say that would have really sucked. Good one guys.:neomon:
 
Hahaha I have got to say that this joke of yours made me lol. I did not even believe it when I saw this new site owner account. Well at least it was a prank that made me lol!!! I guess it was too funny!
 
No Busta accidentally locked it when he made it..I think <_<
and about the prank, it didn't really bother me at all; although I did find it amusing how conniving you can be. :wacky:
 
I was actually laughing my ass off for the first five minutes I thought it was for real. It was just so out of the blue... I mean really, a fishing message board? XD

But meh.

If you're upset, you should pull the cactus out of your cooch and learn to live a little :monster:
 
I found it funny, the idea of a fishing site wanting to buy a FF site is just ridiculous. I think anyone who is seriously pissed off about this prank is being way too over dramatic. You admins did a pretty good job with playing innocent, at first I thought Lord Golbez was the only one in on the prank.
 
Ahaha I KNEW it! Couldn't pull the wool over MY eyes! Although MAnnndddiiii, good show xD

Busta I could see through you , but Mandi you missed your calling as an actress

Anyway, whats to be pissed at, isnt this the whole point of April Fools? I thought it was a hoot xDD

Hah, thought so.

And if anyone has messaged Lord Golbez to complain... learn to read between the lines and grow some balls.
 
Though I as one of the few that chose to ride it out, and wait.

Oh, BTW, I think I left my Riot shield in the SB.

I have to agree You guys did a grand job with the prank. At first I was kinda annoyed, but then I did some thinking which lead to research. After I checked the actual site I found out that the "admin" didn't even exist there.
 
Waaaay too ludicrous to be for realzies.

You got a lol outta me, anywho. Good show, peoples :neomon:

Hahaha xD I've had people telling me that since last night. I did good, huh? :awesome: I DESERVE AN OSCAR DAMMIT!!
 
I swear to god, Ithought you were going to have a nervous breakdown on me xDDD

You have to admit though, I didn't crack. I AM WHO YOU NEED IN A CRISIS :pitler:
