Worst.Joke.Ever.
That was a very mean joke to play on us happless aquians 
.
Forums were not just closed because of April Fools, but because some member here at Aqua-Soft posted some disgusting pictures on the forum. I'll let him ruin it for you all so I killed the forums. I am pretty sure I know who it was, but if anyone else knows anything about it please let me know, then the forums will be unlocked.
Short Answer: April's Fool.
It's April Fools, not April's Fool.
Also, I kind of liked the forums being closed...some decompression time would have been nice .

P.S: COLORS ARE BACK! YEAH!!!
So you made an april fools that involved demoting all moderators - then someone spams the forum and no ex-mods can do anything about it because they have no privellages?
Now we can't use the forum until someone owns up?
Just wanted to make sure I'm understanding this correctly and confirm that it is April 2nd ?
ROFL!
Well, part 1 of the joke - Demoting the moderators.
then someone took advantage of the fact that the boards were modless and spammed. So Tim closed it.
So we now have new Mods? But if we don't and someone owns up - doesn't that mean that the forum still wont open?
Maybe I'm missing the logic in this masterplan.....
I was thinking that it was you. Seriously. Just sort of the renegade Timmeh goin' on the loose. Good joke though, until it got out of hand.but because some member here at Aqua-Soft posted some disgusting pictures on the forum. I'll let him ruin it for you all so I killed the forums. I am pretty sure I know who it was, but if anyone else knows anything about it please let me know, then the forums will be unlocked.

If this is really the reason that the forums were closed....................(which I believe you 100% Seph).....well let's just say that we are all big time GEEKS (oh well)!!!

But I dont understand...honestly everytime something goes bad here they get fully closed up, so we can't even read them...
Why not just lock all forums, its a rather big resource that has topics linked from alot of places.
It is incrediable so much power one single **** can have - post some nudity and A-S is shut down immedately. I wonder when Aqua-Soft is going to close again. :slant:
im gonna guess no latter then tuesday
honastly though, u dont see a problem with posting porn?
1. its an site dedicated to emulation osx
2. there are kiddies that come here. infact i bet more than half of the active members are under 18.
oh and if your wondering why timman has so much power, its becuase this is HIS site
i think locking the forums is a better idea. not being able to read posts is very irratating to me. just delete the stupid pics and lock the forums. it's a lot better that way. man did i miss this forum!
It just happened to be April Fools, thats why you kids can't take things so seriously, GO OUT SIDE!
