I didn't think China would be a good idea...trying to make everything the way they want it...no.

Ok I've been playing along with some of these comments but COME ON. Shutting down the portals WOULD NOT make more money for NG so you guys HAVE TO REALIZE I'm being sarcastic / satirical / whatever when I say that stuff. But if you guys were even reading through this thread it would have been revealed to you by now that it was all a joke in the first place... It's both funny and sad how long this has been drawn out for some people.

Lolz. I think this happens every year around April Fools.. and lasts at least the whole month of April.. if not into May. Maybe not specifically to the site jokes.. but.. for ex:
Last year I made a joke.. with a newspost.. thread.. etc. that I got signed to a major label. Even though the thread only got to be 2 pages long.. and I said.. APRIL FOOLS.. within the first 10 posts.. people continued to be fooled day after day.. until the thread was closed on the 6th.
All the posts congratulating me on "getting signed" stopped at the first week... however.. I had people sending me messages on myspace.. IM.. etc... for the whole month.. =P
For a minute I believed newgrounds is unblocked.
Seems we will have to wait longer.

Finally! You admitted it! I was starting to think this was not a joke..
At first, I was confused as hell, and my nearby friend, who is... let's just say "not a fan" of commie china was really pissed off. THEN I saw the date, and laughed. I think my friend might've actually gotten more pissed, but then again, isn't that the point? Great job Tom.

....It should've been as obvious as PooGrounds.
Sure, it was elaborate.. but too blatant a change to be real. And seriously... do people never check the date on these things? xD
I can hardly believe what I read. April 1st ... it happened on April 1st - this is an INTERNATIONAL thing last I checked. WTF!? Out of all the NG April 1st pages though, I enjoyed this one the most. Looking forward to next year.
No more China approval?
Great shame upon our ancestors!
Yeah, I was April fooled at first. Nice!
I can't believe some of the hateful and militant responses that were being posted. Freedom of speech really is a double edged sword.
oh yeah, just like what i said dude.
not funny
that was too much, even for april fools
Eh? "Who cares about China?" did that dick say?
I thought Newgrounds was Everything For Everyone?
Well, at least Newgrounds gave it a shot. Too bad China has got such a cunt of a government.
This is seriously nothing to be joking with.
I'd wish I could hire some professional... cleaners, but the Chinese Gov has probably monopolized them already anyway.
I can't believe you thought about selling out like that! If the Chinese think this is too much for them then fuck them.
All your members love Newgrounds exactly the way it is now.
well, im glad, the china thing was destroying Ng :/
Ya know... Newgrounds isn't blocked in India at all and you probably have tons of fans here (including me) and we're the 2nd most populated country in the world next to China. So cheer up! Maybe being blocked in China ain't so bad ;-)
i didnt even know what apirl fools day was. :S if i had known about it then i would have been rather passive. and why is ng being blocked in china anyway? because of communisum? and removing the blogs, audio portal and the flash portal would removing everything that ng was made to do. good thing it was a joke.

Wow, you're dense. It was a joke, numbnuts. Are you really that stupid or are you goin to school for that?

OMG
Here's a little recap on the Rules of the Internet:
Everything that's announced on April 1st is an April's Fool joke. Always. -ALWAYS-
I can't believe people actually fell for it. I can't believe people actually got pissed over it either... ze gullible masses!
Tempting, TEMPTING?!? How could you have been tempted to take out blogs and the flash and audio portals?!? That just shows your greedy...sickening. Think about it, deleting blogs and the flash and audio portals?!?! China is a greedy wasteland...
