I was rolling out of bed, picked up my phone to check the news, and WF was still up my screen now with a FBI warning. Boy I was fully awake about .2 seconds later.

It certainly jolted me for a second

even though I had only just been reading on Bluesky about how the world's too mad for April Fools any more

 

[Amur]

Yeah checked it in the morning when I was about to write to my magickal blog. Joled me to the core to have such a great website seized. Got worried about how USA is a police state

It got me good, took me about 5 minutes to realize it was a hoax (perhaps because of my pirate's bad conscience). Splendid idea, beautifully executed!!

 

[Rowena]

Yep - that one got me.
Well played.

Wait I thought I set it up to disappear after 10 seconds and flash the words “April fools” did that not happen?

Y’all have no idea how happy this makes me 🥹🥹

 

[Bawonschild]

That definitely got me. I was about ready to go to the table.

I suppose so but by then I had impatiently switched to another browser window and thought, "RIP, Wizard Forums" but tried again later. I clicked some alert, saw the FBI logo again, immediately gave up, switched again to another browser window.... that's why it took me so long to realise what was going on.

 

[Kelodo]

OMG that got me good! I was absolutely devasted & furious!
Brilliant!

 

[WonderFire]

LMAO, nice one.

That was legit terrifying not gonna lie. I thought I had lost another community and resource. After the BALG Forum drama a few years back along with some issues in my personal life.. I kinda have some mild PTSD now. As far as a April Fools joke goes... it was AWESOME lol!

 

[Konsciencia]

OMG!!! SkullTraill!!! I was shocked for a moment. funny!

 

[Moongarm71]

Got me for sure!

 

[Taudefindi]

I was more curious than surprised, and I also had forgotten which day was today.
When I remembered, I found it funny.

 

[rice candy]

I thought it was real because I wasn't wearing my glasses! Talk about a jump scare!

 

[voidcat]

Not gonna lie I was confused and sleepy still when I saw it. For a moment I was like FBI? What? confused Why would the FBI- (screen changes) oh its April fools. I didn't even finish reading the message before April Fools showed on the screen.
