[RUIN THE FUN] Possible April Fools Ideas Of Theymos

[Quickseller]

Perhaps theymos could make a presentation that features a picture of President Reagan firing a machine gun while sitting on the back of a dinosaur with a rocket launcher strapped to his back with a tattered American flag in the background.

Similar to how Senator Mike Lee did durring a speech on the Senate floor today.

themos will announce his give away on that day.
Rewards for winner is the real flight into space, to the Moon.
Fly to the Moon by spacecraft with funds from theymos's bitcoin.
In other words, I can say it is the flight with bitcoin to the Moon.

Change the color theme to a garish bright orange-purple-yellow-blue. Anyone who survives through the day is a real BTCNTLK'er.

Exactly... some kind of real gawdy and difficult to tolerate layout as if it were "art".... Proven usage would be making a certain number of posts on that day, such as 5 or more, to thereby be labelled as an "April addict" for the remainder of the month.  I would expect to receive such label, unless I happen to be non-forum busy on that day.. for some random and unlikely reason.


Edit:

After browsing through the remainder of this thread (so in my mind, I am sufficiently caught up), I thought that some of the proposed April fools changes would be very difficult to achieve beyond just making an announcement, and then if there is a kind of reversal issue, some people could become disgruntled by the joke.... In other words, it is going to be difficult to beat the 2018 april fools joke... that was a real good one (and seemingly easy to reverse).

For an additional possible joke suggestion, I had thought that something like disabling all hat avatars would be great, but I just don't know if there is an easy enough algorithm to filter the type of avatars, and another problem would be to reverse the joke.. might not be easy, either.  Anyhow, the ban of hat avatars premise could be that a kind of cult has established around hats, and such cult behavior takes away from forum cohesion.      Incumbent users of hats would be disallowed from employing the use of any kind of avatar for one year.

Another suggestion: Visualize users' Merit scores as images! This is mine at the moment:

This has potential. If not as a prank then at least as a useless thread in Off Topic.

[tbct_mt2]

Theymos will announce that he made partnership with Apple, hence there is a new app on Apple Store, that allows bitcointalkers to exchange their sMerits in the shadow via the app.
And, the app is totally untraceable (but merits can be tracebale in the forum)

Maybe he'll make us an April fool by actually not modifying anything (this time)?

Maybe this year I won't do anything, and that'll be the real april fools.

LOL I swear I didn't read his post before coming up with that idea.

You will be banned from the forum for posting similar ideas until April 1, 2020.

Bitcointalk DON is coming after you... hide under a blanket fast.

Happy April Fools' Day!

Meta thread?

Meta thread?

More accurately, Craig would say something like this: 

"Hi, I am Satoshi. 
Ask me anything, except for proof. 
If you ask for proof, been there, done that... you may as well just fuck off!"

That would be fun for one day!

It would be the best one  

Another idea which I have in my mind is on your very first login on 1st April the screen will show a message like this

" Verification failed !
Your account is currently locked, please go through verification process in order to unlock your account. It can take up-to 10 days to verify your account."

The account will automatically get unlock on second login attempt.

That's kinda boring only few members will have an experience on that. The fact that most of us are always online in which automatic login is set and always online has a check.

Let's try to revise your idea and add some another feature, in which all forum members will have to login back

You know what this forum needs? A battle royale mode of some sorts

Stimulated by the topic of Hhampuz, theymos will replace all avatars and signatures in the forum with images of porn-stars and signatures from porn sites.
 
Forum users will have chance to enjoy it only 24 hours.

As most of you probably know by now, I like to listen to the community before I do anything definitive.

I've been approached about a pornsite who may want me to run a Signature Campaign here at Bitcointalk. Now there's nothing illegal with legit porn sites and as far as I know there's nothing against promoting such sites here either but I'd still like to hear what you guys think about it, would people apply? (With good payrates people don't seem to care what they advertise but still). If anything would come up that they've been doing some shennanigans later on, could I get in trouble for marketig it here? Should I consider it in any way immoral to promote pornographic content here?

Feel free to discuss, I'd prefer it to be on topic and without multiple posts about "Your campaign, your decision" etc. One post is enough and different opinions are always welcome.

I found the image today, so theymos might announce the first merit rain drops in the forum on 1st April 2019.
Why not?
Merit rain drop hunters will give theymos around of applause.

I think it is time to lock this thread so it won’t be quite as obvious when theymos does his April fools prank and so it will be more fun.

Isn't the reputation section enough for that?

Yeah, I guess you're right let's give him this remaining days to think for an awesome fun for the forum

Locking this thread for now.
