April Fools..

Just want to let staff know that their little April Fools joke (let everyone run around for the BoS then let them know that it's not out there..). I have to say that I was running around for a while. But it definetly loosened up the Nightmist atmosphere for me.

Well, in my opinion, I think that it just made things worse . Pandilex should have told people that figured it out. This joke caused an unprecedented amount of lag and some people tried to ruin it, had it been an actual quest, by using this as a means to mass pk. Not only was this not fun, it caused alot more dislike for Pandilex than there already is. Unfortunately, a real quest would have been enjoyed and complimented, but as far as I can see, this has just lead to more anger . A lesser joke would have been alright, but this was blown out of proportion.

Loosened up the environment...The lag sucked so bad it took 5 minutes to get from NM to Arilin...you call that loose...then spend over an hour looking for something that wasn`t there....call me stupid but I think it was a total was of time...would been nice to have the Pentathalon that is scheduled for the 1st Monday of each month.... But concidering all thing it's nice to see staff back to the old ways...having some fricken fun for a change....

*frowns* People, I know we all hate lag, but y'all need to losen up and realize an April Fool's Joke is just that, a joke. If it had been the other way that YOU were the one playing the joke, I'm sure you wouldn't be so pissed off. Chill out and relax a little. I swear the last week or so has gotten everyone's panties in a wad.... And I thought I needed to get laid....sheesh

Thank you (JLH and Pandilex) for rising above the bickering and continuing to have fun with the game. There are lots of us that appreciate it.

Well said Kaiy...at a time like this...we could use a little laughter, and some fun. Alas, once again, certain people have to ruin everything and complain more...

Lmao, some of you people are truly sad. It was an April Fools joke, and in my eyes a good one. Get over it and to newb I know you are a bit bent out of shape still about the whole Halor deal. So you continue to bash pandi and that is anther thing you need to get over.. He was let go for a reason. That is the end. You say this only made people dislike pandi more. In my eyes of you or anyone dislikes him that much leave. Stop your crying. If it were not for Pandi and JLH there would be no NM. So if you have so much hate for either one of then just leave NM stop posting you BS. Im getting sick of all the staff bashing on the forum by you and other people that is upset that some staff got let go by doing there job poorly. They have all the right to let there go as they are the ones that let them in.

Paul, I won't get mad at you for how miserably wrong you are, but i'll just tell you i'm not bitter at Pandilex or anything. he just hasn't made too many smart choices lately. Plus he STILL hasn't answered my email from a week ago. Certainly if he has hours of time to pull pranks on us, he has time to get to the serious things too right? That's pretty much the only reason i'm upset with him atm, anything else is rumors or assumptions. so eat me Paul. ahahah april fools

that had to be meant as a rather light joke considering if he really wanted to make people hate him he'd have told everyone to look for attribute points or an automated triplex match.

I'm no authority on how people should act, or present themselves, I make as many mistakes as the next person, but let's get a grip on reality here for a second 'Newb'. First off, I don't think Pandilex, JLH, or any other involved staff or players intended the ''april fools'' joke just for their own kicks, to make anyone upset, or to add more to the disruptions caused by the events in the last few days. It was a joke, nothing more, nothing less. I think if anything, they were trying to have fun with the players ( and it was fun ) more than anything. So what, there was no BoS, and no real monster, you didn't lose anything, there was no money put into it. Other than the lag, I see nothing to complain about. April Fools is to play jokes on people for fun, and they did a d**n good job. The End.

Oh come on you guys!Stop crying!The staff try to do something fun and you cry about it.Don't be a baby ffs.I wouldn't blame the staff if they stopped doing fun things.Every thing they do you turn it around on them!I think it was pretty funny myself.The lag wasn't funny, but hey theres always lag. I see Aidon just started a mosh and aborted it after everyone joined as an April fools joke...Are you people going to cry about that?Are you going to say something like "Oh I had to buy pots for nothing!!"?!I really wouldn't doubt it.

Yeah, I think i have to agree with android, and ishtar. The staff did it to lighten up the now tense atmosphere of nightmist, and I think it worked fairly well... Although im sure everyone hated the lag *didnt get any lag myself so i dunno* P.S:What does ffs mean? lol I know most computer chat lingo, but this one totally escapes me.

This is stupid. People like you newb, are enough to make me quit the game, and your not even someone important. Your pathetic whining and consistent criticism is just plain bull****. Get a grip you chin licker. It's called fun, just because it doesnt give the crotch of YOUR panties a moist lining, doesn't mean it wasn't enjoyable for the rest of us. Quit your pathetic lil girl crying, I for one am glad it lagged you out, you deserve it. IT WAS A BIT OF FUN AND THOSE OF YOU WHO CAN'T SEE THAT HAVE TO BE THE BIGGEST JERK OFFS IN THE WORLD.
