Very funny, Neal!

Haha, clever clever, you had me there for about 5 or 10 seconds.

Ridgeback · 03-31-10, 10:31 PM

Got me too. Did a double take, reloaded the page and saw the same thing and then realised the date!! Nice work!

audessy · 03-31-10, 10:41 PM

RodBorza · 03-31-10, 10:43 PM

In good spirit Neal. That's was funny!

Holy bejeebus , i thought i had a massive virus on my computer .

I thought for sure that some of those DDOS'ing pirates had taken upon themselves to forcibly make a statement regarding SH5 and its dumbing down to a console level.

Nah... I've got more faith in Neal's server management skills than that.

I do appreciate that he left the subforum names intact.

Someone want to play search and destroy?

peabody · 04-01-10, 12:15 AM

Got me too!

The sad part is I was prepared for it....tomorrow....not realizing I logged on after midnight.

Bugger! Me too, I went and updated my antivirus and SBS&D. I did find 29 problems in SBS&D.
