Jesus. I just saw one pop up which I thought I hadn't caught yet, and I went 'Ooh!' like I'd discovered a secret level.

24 now. Well okay, 22, cos some are doubles.

For Members Who Have Participated in The Name Changing Fun!
As a note, for members who've had their name changed by me: PM me tomorrow to get your name changed back--otherwise, I'll likely revert anyone's name I changed back to what they had before April Foolery some time around noon US Central Time. For those of you that PMed someone who isn't me, make sure to boop the Staffer you PMed tomorrow to remind them to change you back. :)

While the name and avatar changes were funny, the frequent pop-ups make the site all but unusable on a phone, as they scale up and take half the screen if I zoom in to enlarge the font to a comfortable size.

This is what my screen looks like:



And it's even worse when trying to write as the virtual keyboard takes up some space, making the pop up obscure almost all the text area.

Please find a way to allow people who use small screens to opt out.

Also, thank you staff for doing this! It was so nice to have the smiles and for one day I was able to laugh at random times and let it take my mind off of more serious things! <3

I was legitimately thinking my phone was possessed or had a serious virus!! Not going to lie!!

I have been googling “top hat with glasses and fish” or “top hat with glasses and cauldron” into google for the last 15 minutes trying to figure out which porn site I visited gave me virtual crabs......

Nice joke guys lol. Vlexia was DEFINITELY fooled 😂😂

I'm really happy that so many people have been getting a good giggle out of the silly little changes. We all had quite a bit of fun coming up with things and planning for this.

For those who are frustrated, please keep in mind that it's just for the day and our intent wasn't malicious at all. It's just a bit of good fun, and everything should go back to normal quite soon. <3


Wandering Mind

Thank you for the amusement and the wonderful opportunity to goof off.

Hey stafferdoodles. This day was very fun X3 and had interesting scenarios where the hats would pop up and judge me for the...Maaaaybe perhaaaaps smut I was writing or reading -coughs- I'm an angel -coughs- and then scootle themselves out of existence.

Anywho I hope some of the...Negative comments don't discourage you from doing this stuff next year.

A glitterhat snuck in just as I was reading this. I'm starting to think they know. :)

...AND ANOTHER ONE AS I WAS TYPING THIS.

You can also put them on top of other people's avatars like they're wearing the hat. :)

>_> I disagree on the permanent part. My username is obviously a lie. -coughs-
