No, it was good humour, I say. But really, Newgrounds has gone further. Seen the Assassin and Club A Seal this site was founded on? Damn.

It should never have been a just a joke. I'm thoroughly disappointed it was taken down.

I liked the new look, it was just a shame I couldn't post on the BBS, it was pretty amusing yesterday, fun while it lasted and all that. Showed a bunch of people who don't really use Newgrounds because I could, they laughed.

I miss the red skin :(

It was a funny joke, but I don't think they should have blocked posts on the forum. That took it a little too far.

The only way they took it too far as basically banning everyone for a day from the BBS, not that that is really that big of a deal anyway.

I had only to wish that there be a large crowd of spectators the day of my execution and that they would greet me with cries of hate.

Nah, it was funny. Last year was boring.

To post or not to post, that's the question.

Okay Tom did this because of the recent banning and removing of YouTube off the chinese internet. Communist China also wants to regulate what can and what cant be said on the internet 24/7.

If you haven't heard about this than you need to get out more.

It wasn't a joke. They did all this to get unblocked by China.
