matthijs Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 great, so a prank is now forbidden to post a link to, even though is classified as prank? This board is so going downhill... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niall Posted November 29, 2011 Author Share Posted November 29, 2011 Geez guys. The person who made the prank asked for people not to post that it was them who did it. No one said you can't post anything about it. You guys sound like Daily Mail readers complaining about political correctness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one said you can't post anything about it. You guys sound like Daily Mail readers complaining about political correctness. I based it on the fact that all posts containing the links have been editied by mods, and I dont' believe it said 'removed by request' so you can't blame me for thinking the mods didnt' like it to be posted an easier solution would have been to just delete the image if you don't want it to be on the interwebz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niall Posted November 29, 2011 Author Share Posted November 29, 2011 Oh I didn't see the purge of all the links before. I think that was a bit of damage control. It's easier to deal with being accused of censorship than dealing with the more precocious members of this board laying into the more susceptible members for believing the story, at least that way only the mod team gets flamed, not users who simply don't know better.

Jobby Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 In fact, no. Fucking LOL at the "pwoper musers" claiming how evil it was to spread such a rumour. "Pwoper" jokes haven't been funny for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furygirl Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Oh I didn't see the purge of all the links before. I think that was a bit of damage control. Indeed. And there were multiple pages of comments on the fake story, and it was an effort to put out a fire before it spread. Obviously it didn't work. It would have been more funny if NME had thought it was true. I'm surprised they didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyper_chondriac_muser Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I heard about this through Xfm... they probably source a lot of their news from NME's site to be fair, lol. What a shite prank. At least .mu boards put a bit more effort into it than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
