Jorm is only angry because no one cares about him. That's what he gets for having such crappy drops.

In case you do not speak Wyrm, let me translate:

Jormungand says your event coordination was terrible. He also feels you may have ignored the social and political repercussions of posting such material, and worries for the players who read it and left quite upset.

I mean those BSTs were already on the edge.

Oh... wait... there's only three Rs at the end of that. That completely changes the meaning.

He ate you cause he doesn't like your shoes.

Re: End of FFXIOnline.com April Fools Event

Tao, get back to writing dammit.


Anyway, I personally wasn't impressed by *anyone*'s april fools jokes this year. Still have to say the best one i've ever seen was a few year back- howstuffworks.com had a piece on a nuclear car. It was actually fairly believable, and it kept you going for about 15-45 minutes of reading before it told you it was a joke.

People have become too jaded. Pretty much everything I read yesterday, I assumed was a prank.

Re: End of FFXIOnline.com April Fools Event

Most anything I read on April 1st I assume is a joke. I kind of like it better when the joke isn't explained at the end. It's amusing to see who does and doesn't get it.
