So I log in and see I'm a regional moderator with Flumes in Africa. Who else got this title, and is it the legendary April Fools joke this year for NS. I don't get it if it is?!?!?! And it's still only March 31st where I live!!!

I got the "Regional Moderator" label as Antebellum South. I think it's an April Fool's joke. It is already April 1st in Australia, where the Nationstates servers are located.

What I love are the retards who don't realize it's a joke. Last year I saw someone post "WTF is with this this is wierd omg!", I sent them a TG explaining that it what an april fool's joke, and than he replied "okay good this is this is so faggoty". And than I replied "There's no need to be homophobic". And than he replied "fuck you fag. go suck some other faggots dick, fuck you." And than I reported him, but of course the server crashed so my TG was deleted before the mods could read it.

Asshole.

Out of curiousity, I warned NRE's Eastern Empire with the following:

"I'm warning you just because I can. This is obviously a gross abuse of my powers. Call your local senator today, and stop mod abuse.

Oh, and because your all Klingon-ish. Romulans FTW!"

Warning recorded (official timestamp 1175389134)

EDIT: Hmm. I might have to warn Nor too. Warn fight! :lol:

I warned the #1 guy in the world today for largest insurance industry for exactly that, and told him no bribes were taken from the 2nd guy. I warned some other's in Africa as well. :D It feels good abusing power, even if it isn't real! :lol:

Lol, I don't think they can take any action against us for our warnings though. "Being French" isn't exactly a punishable offense...at least not in Australia.

:lol: I was thinking the same thing. After NationDates, and The Homeland Security thing, they can't blame us! :o
I'm sure it isn't though! I was expecting something better after the last two though! <_<

Not even cool, I'm not a regional mod in Asia, in Europe yeah but not in Asia. Ah well....and I have to agree that those this is a bit amusing, they done better. Now if this was actually a system glitch, now that would make it the best of all time.

Homeland security was 2 years ago. When you visited nationstates.net, instead of displaying the usual Nationstates homepage, it displayed a warning that the site was taken down by Homeland Security because of suspected terrorist activities.

I liked Nationdates. That was funny as hell. Draxis back then would have liked the Bolshivek union. How far Draxis has gone since then.

It actually said "Homeworld Security" if you check the archived version someone linked me in last year's April Fool's thread.

Nationdates was funny.

This is...meh.

Okay, so Kiru Tao, Sutekh-Te-Ankh, El Dejarbo, and one of my NSWorld unaffiliated nations all have the Regional Moderator stamp.

This is so much a prank.
