Although one of the staff started the prank, we all caught
on and took turns playing the evil 'Lord Aku' for a little
while. Carterhawk started it, and then ssj4gogita4, Spongey34, spongedude, [C]row, MaStErSp0nG3B0b0, and Sponge Bob Laura all took shots at the forums. Meanwhile, we replaced SuperSayianSpongebob with Cheri, a member with no posts, for the day. Sorry SSS. ;-P
The forum members (thats you) went crazy, and prepared to defend against the impending doom (an April 2nd close of SBM). The staff was apparently helpless, but the forums were restored at midnight of April 2.
So, just for the record, it was Carterhawk who started this. He likes to do these things. Then we decided to play along.
