April Fools!

XR1stang · 04-01-2004, 06:57 PM

so, being that today is April Fools Day does anyone have any fun or interesting pranks that they pulled and would be willing to share?

Have you had one pulled on you?

Well, I guess I'll start off and share one that is going on right now on another website I visit on a daily basis. It's www.fark.com (one of the funniest places I have seen) and the owner Drew likes to pull some interesting stunts on April Fools day.

His site has been "hacked" a few times today and I was able to capture the hacks and make a mirror of them. I have a couple of the ones that happened last year that I will put up in a bit so everyone else can see them.

here is the first one

here is the second one

here is the third one

here is the fourth one

and the last one for this year well at least the last that I know of

Oh and if any of you are wondering who HPZ is in the last one, he's one of the fark.com admins that keeps that beast up and running.

I know I know, it's on crappy AngelFire but it's the only host that I know of that I don't have to pay for (yes I'm cheap like that) so I'll try to keep it up as long as I can. Oh and ignore the banner at the top as Angelfire puts it there for me and there is nothing I can do about it. So go check 'em out and laugh along with the rest of us

I remember that one. That was like 3 or 4 years ago now, wasn't it?

well either of you fellas feel like sharing what it was? I was a member back then but I don't seem to recall the prank in question.

yes about 3-4 years ago. him and some of the other mustang site got together and made up a page that you got directed to when you tired to go to there main page. it said that ford had shut them down cause of copywrite infringment or something along those lines.

And it sounds like something Ford might be stupid enough to do? Sometimes it seems they don't know who buys their cars?
