Lol who gets fooled by Newgrounds on April Fools day? You guys pull some shit every year lol

if the site remained like it did yesterday. i'd never come back to newgrounds due to my fvorite games being blocked

Lulz where is my whine message? >:(

How fucking gullible can you be?

I'll admit that I thought I was banned when I tried to post but to think that you planned to change the site for good never even crossed my mind!

I think we need more Chinese-type laws where you're not allowed to breed unless you pass a test.

I can't believe people took that April Fool's Joke so seriously. You've been seen through your act Tom!

i didn't believe it for 1 sec,when i logged on i was like..

This is the most I've ever laughed at the idiocy of the average NGer.

I think the reason so many more people got tricked this year was because of the filters, April Fools to China Rules, was brilliant. Really confused the noobs because it was a lot harder for them to find clues letting the nooblets know it was April Fools.

Even then I'm still kind of stunned that people could actually believe it, lol.

I didn't think it would get much better than the McDonalds one from way back but this was pretty epic.
Good job guys!

it was honestly a good April Fool's prank--except for the color scheme. ughhhhh, that killed my eyes.

next time you do that kind of thing for an AF prank, at LEAST keep the color scheme bearable. yellow on bright red was murder.

It was really funny that the communist from Canada complained about not having freedom of speech.

That's one of the better April Fool's jokes.

I fucking LOVE this post!

Seriously, are people that fucking moronic?

Wahaha,April fools day was awesome this time XD

People fell for that?

Well, as I said before, that was one hell of an epic April Fool's.

I mean China Rules.

just curious, did you do it?

So fucking hilarious. Definitely the best April Fools joke I have ever seen and probably will ever see. It was not only funny, but had an underlying message and hopefully increased awareness of Chinese censorship and the importance of freedom of expression on all forms of media.

You really outdid yourself this time Tom!! Also, it was awesome and pathetic to see all the people who never quite caught on. You must've received more PMs yesterday than ever before.

It's going to be near impossible to beat this next year though, good luck.

Nice April fool joke...lol! javascript:MakeSmileySelection(1);

I received hundreds of concerned PMs from users who did not approve of the changes. We are each entitled to our own opinion and I have decided to share some quotes from the messages I received:

I had a feeling it was all an april fools joke. Could've ended worse tho. I did however think that it was an impressibe april fools joke tho, the flashes, the design, it was all a perfect joke and it certainly did have its effect. Genius is all i can say. just genius

When I couldn't watch flashes or post in the forum, I had to figure that that was their April Fool's joke. I'm not surprised at the reaction to it as well.
