Yes, it is irritating when you come here to find out what's going on or to solve/help solve a problem and all you can find are idiotic posts.

Of course, there are some people who make UHall hard to stand any day whether's it's April 1st or not. *points finger at . . .*

Come on guys....not everything has to be dull and serious. UHall is usually full of pissed off or half-pissed off UO players who whinge and complain about everything. To see a bit of humor one day a year is a bit of a break.

Starting next year, I'm going to take a personal day off every 4/1 just so I don't have to deal with all the hokey pranks out there.

I don't think anyone minds "a bit of humor". But when half of what you read is that and you came here for information, then it's a bit annoying.

April 1st if my oldest grandson's favorite day of the year and has been most of his 12 years. So I have always enjoyed seeing whether he could get me best or I could get him best.

But that doesn't mean I want everywhere I go/read to be that way. Although I will admit the taming of the paragon dragon was a good one!

And April Fool's jokes are about our game? They somehow give us information/help with our game? As usual you really have nothing intelligent to input here do you?

It gives an excuse to make thinly veiled threats to these annoying posters that they believe are jokes :D

Nice job sweety. Personal attacks ftw...la
Calling anyone who disagrees with you thin skinned isn't a personal attack? Wow you do have a double standard don't you? BTW calling me sweety is, in my opinion, a personal attack. :D

Now that our personal attacks are out of the way, can we get back to the useless April Fool's jokes?

You think that logging on and seeing all these 4/1 posts is irritating? Try having 5 teenage kids, who make it their personal mission, to make sure that u have been pranked the entire day long!!!
To me these are tame and hilarious. finding myself wrapped in my blanket with those raid-cuff style pull ties securing me to my bed, this morning, was not what i would call a funny start to the day.
So take it with a grain of salt.
You could be eating a toad for breakfast (starts your day with the worst first):D

Why would I hate Uhall?

Anyways, I have fun on the internet on April 1. It only happens once a year, and it's more enjoyable to... enjoy yourself, rather than scrouge it up.

Btw: Bliz has some nice jokes up on their site; especially in the Starcraft II and Diablo III sections.

UHall == Usefull info 20% of the time.
Whining 70% of the time.
Dev posts that should be on the patch screen 10% of the time.

Can someone tell me why the patch screen is only updated after enough people whine about how pertinent Stratics-only-posted info should be there? It should be updated every time there is news.

ie: Bugged quiver information.
