Okay, Relbeek, apparently you didn't understand me.
It's simply that I don't consider reinstating Jecks to be a particularly good April Fools prank. While I find his posts refreshing compared to the boring bullshit like the "ZOMG WMD'S" threads we seem to get every week around here, watching you abuse your administrative privileges to indulge petty power fantasies isn't funny, just embarrassing.
In short, I'm happy Jecks is back, even if only temporarily, and nauseated by the reason you decided to bring him back.
You yourself will admit that it is possible to do the right thing (war in Iraq, reinstating Jecks) for the wrong reasons (WMD intelligence, childish ego trips).
I could go on about why I find your motives tasteless here, but instead I have a question:
When you were in the admin window clicking the button back and forth, banned...not banned...banned...not banned..., what did it sound like in the room? Was there a squelching noise, techno music, and a refrain of "Ooh, baby, TAKE those Halfling Parts, yeah!" or was there just a high-pitched cackle like The Joker on blotter acid?

Actually, Eidolon, it sounded kinda like this. (I trust Jecks won't mind me quoting the AIM log from April Fool's day)

jecksshadowleaf: and you get the pleasure of banning me all over again LOL
Relbeek Einre: hahah!

Relbeek Einre: Go forth.
jecksshadowleaf: haha
jecksshadowleaf: too funneh
jecksshadowleaf: Dont wanna overplay it
Relbeek Einre: OK
jecksshadowleaf: now we will sit back and see what ensues
jecksshadowleaf: people like even harlowe may reconsider if they believe you are in on it
Relbeek Einre: hahah!
Relbeek Einre: Do you mind if I respond with your real first name?

Anyway, as you can see, Eidolon, I did it because Jecks asked for the privilege and I thought it would be funny. I also thought it might lend credibility to the prank.
I did not, however, think that it would lead a whiny self-loathing little fraction of a man to scream "Power trip!" at me. That was just frosting.

I forget, why was Jecks banned in the first place? actually thought his departure from the board was self-imposed. I didn't realize he'd been given the permanent "time-out' reserved for other third-graders that post here.
Correction Mr. President, I DID build this, and please give Lurker a hug, we wouldn't want to damage his self-esteem.

Hooked me, where you guys drunk? If you mean the retirement thread, yep the first day I was, but the board hacking? Oh no way. Burz was way, way too civilized and half-hearted in the whole take-over.
And yes, it was Beeker's outburst that sealed the deal. I thought from the start Burz and Beeker were in on it, but it wasn't until the tantrum that I knew and thought Jecks was in on it too.
Goobers. The lot of you.
