Hate to admit it to a bunch of Land Before Time fans, but I'm just as big a Watership Down fan, and I've always wanted to run a WD board.  That time is now and from here on out, I feel its better I simply keep my online priorities straight, and choose one theme.  Therefore, the GOF will become my WD board because I don't have the time to go through and re-create a new board.  Plus what the heck...I've already got a memberbase and don't have to wait months to establish a new one.

So anyhoo...welcome to the warren people! :D :D :D :D

For those a little confused, I'll be able to explain more tomorrow night after work.  I had a busy day and am a bit tired, so I can't explain everything right now.

Says who?  Everyone knows (well at least some do) that I'm a big WD fan...even have a website on it.  Its just a nice coincidence.

This is definitely April Fools, no question asked. ;)

At least it's not as harsh as *angrily stares at Action9000* Last Year's Prank!

Yes, I know you to be a fan of WD, Petrie, but I also know you wouldn't go through with something like this unless you discussed it with the other mods and they agreed on it as well.

I know things like this are a TEAM decision and not an individual one. :D

Ha ha. :p Very funny, Adam. :p April Fools is thin, old and stale for me. :p I wore it out and beat it to death with a book 10 miles long of constant jokes that would last for months on end as a kid. I think I did that for two years.... :p

Though, I must say, there is something funny about a prank like this.. :p
"And the Most High said unto Moses, Ahayah-Asher-Ahayah.  And he said, Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel, Ahayah hath sent me unto you...  This is my name forever, and this is my memorial unto all generations."

1953-2011...  One day, mother, I shall see you again...

Hello:
 I don't know, it is very good for a change, and Watership Down is cool so I have no problems :DD .

I hope this is an april fool's joke, cause this is pretty crushing for me.  With all this talk of there being no more new LBT movies it would be horrible to lose this last bit of the land before time.

Of course it's a prank, raga. ;) But the tradition of April Fools is to be a practical joker. Though I no longer directly participate in the festivities myself, if someone pranks me, I have no qualms. :p

You guys come up with darnedst idea for April 1st don't ya? Unfortunately, it seems your last prank has made almost everyone wise to you. Might I suggest something a little more subtle next year?  :p

I KNOW this is an April Fools joke.  I just see an unhappy looking rabbit ambushing me each time I open this page.

It's obviously a joke. Seeing as how where I live, it's only two more hours until April 1st. Besides, layout aside, everything is still the same. The name of the forum, the smilies, everything.  Pretty good though. I have to admit I half-believed it at first XD.

That one was prank in which "universal" "took over" the board, and threatened legal action against half the board.. People thought it was real...
Winner of these:

Just for the record, I didn't fall for it.  Universal proably has better things to than troll fansites.

The prank last year had something to do with text vanishing.

And besides, the warren staring at me is just somewhat creepy.  This would turn away people more and we want to bring them in and keep them in.

If he wants it permanent, he'd best pick something else. :P:

A Watership Down Forum?
Why not. xD

Though, I prefer a Disney Forum more. =P
