April Fools Day Tolerance Level?
what's the tolerance level going to be on thursday for every nitwit who thinks it's hysterical to post something like:
BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OSAMA BIN LADEN CAUGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
followed by a "ha ha, april fools" in the body of the message.
hopefully, it'll be a lengthy suspension.

Bwahahaha! April Fool! I win!
I'm not sure of the point of even posting an April Fool joke thread, since it will undoubtedly be closed within minutes.

I mean,
Charlie, I think you're giving the mods credit for omniscience that they may not possess. Unless, of course, geoff is paying overtime for Thursday.
Oh oh oh!! How about a BOUNTY for reporting April Fool's posts?

Can something be done about the April Fools threads? I know that it has been pretty calm only like 4 or 5 so far, but it is really annoying.
Maybe instead of deleting them leave them up with a bolded mod note about how there is a very low tolerance for these type of posts so the other noobs won't try to post any. By deleting them people don't know there even were any and that nobody is interested in them.
Just my thoughts.

Yes, maybe a stickie thread at the top of the forum saying "DON'T BE A FOOL" would be good. These threads are so lame anyway. If you leave an example out perhaps it won't encourage the other "fools".
