Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

Great job guys.

My favorite thing had to be the banner header block, that was genius.

OH, and one more thing...

That was an enjoyable April Fools Day joke.
I hope next years is okay

April Fools on Newgrounds was awesome! Kudos to everyone who worked on it! XD

r3BeL1oN!

While I understand it was April Fools Day, it was a pretty bad joke. Unless you were trying to give us a glimpse of what Chinese experience in terms of censorship, there was really no point but to frustrate a lot of viewers. Oh well, it was only one day, and I pulled some worse jokes on people myself.

Yesterday was fun for the first couple of hours then there waws nothing to do for the rest of the day and it got boring. If you want to do something like again you need to plan it out with more people, like more accounts posting, more flash from those accounts, etc. It was a good idea though.

What an epic day.

What an annoying day.

Why china? Nobody likes China. It's just a waste of a country.

(joking) Tee Hee

god damnit a special april fools day joke man!

Wow, you guys really went all out this year :D Fantastic!

I didnt like it.

The world filter annoyed me.

goddamnit, they fucked it up. shut down the bbs again and don't bring it back this time.

April Fool's Day was a day.

A day of epic lolz.

That was the joke though. Get everyone to believe this China unblocking was real and start blocking the good content. It was actually pretty badass.

that was a harsh joke... i couldnt watch the good stuff for a whole day! *slaps tom* :-p

It was an ingenious joke, but it was very annoying that we couldn't post on the forums, and even worse were the bright-as-fuck colors trying to blind us.

That was a so bloody april fool

amusing.

The design was good, but i found it VERY annoying that i couldn't post. So i only logged in twice during it.

So are we really un-blocked or not. Cause I was thinking just the censering and design was a joke.

lmao i liked the fake usernames the best. Good job this year, I got so many laughs from the different pages.

I find that this was a terrible joke. There is other stuff to do other then ruin my day.

Yay the censor is off! The Chinese thing was an april fool's joke, how COINCEDENTAL that newgrounds would be unblocked by china on April 1'st?

that was funnier than last year

I saved around 13 screen caps of april fools.

WHAT IS GOING ON

I feel like I may have missed something, something to do with China, censorships and April Fools. I come on and there is lots of Chinese things. And everyone on forums has bad grammar and Chinese names. Maybe I'll just come back later.

I was actually unable to post at the forum during that day. It was a good joke but couldn't you at least make a way to avoid it? YouTube for example had a "I prefer the old layout" button for those who didn't like everything turned upside down.

it was fun to feel the Chinese experience with the censorship But there was not much to do and all the red was hurting my eyes?

This is good news for Newgrounds, traffic wise and for users since interaction on the internet with other cultures is always an interesting situation. Welcome Chinese people :P

That totally made up for the half arsed job you did last year. Thankyou for making me laugh. The text editing was the funniest thing, the not being able to post was the worst.
