Ain't it just? I can watch the intro and maybe a minute, but then I have to turn it off. :banghead:

The start is the only acceptable bit... The chorus is just horrid.

All the mods said he raged and made a cruel post in the admin/mod section.

And then W1zzard and Mussels said it was because of a bad joke.
A joke that only mods saw? Not really a joke then.

Clashing stories are clashing.

CASE CLOSED BOYS! We're going home.

25 = ban.

So please, no more Mussels talk. It's supposed to be a jolly trolly day, but a lot of us are already disturbed with Mussels. Let's close that chapter.

The reason this thread is open is because the TPU-FZilla joke is running.

Oh sure, the buttons have been pushed by W1zz, but it's not real. It'll get reversed in 24 hours. I know it and you know it. ;)

That's technically possible, so is reversing the ban of a "softwarez 4 free" person we may have issued.

It will be reversed. I'd bet money on it. I know this place now. :cool:

Here's a very nice telltale:

That's a bug. Banning someone moves him into the "banned users" usergroup (all privileges gone), but he still has to be manually delisted from alloted forums. It's not like he can moderate those forums now. That will be fixed once an admin comes online.

With a year long ban of Mussels. Thats how he tops it.

But seriously, I will admit that I was very curious earlier to what had happened and after W1z himself posted and said his piece on it that was good enough for me. Everyone just needs to drop the whole bit with Mussels now. It has been dragged out way too long. Like him or hate him he's gone for a full year assuming this is real.

Get over it, it's done, move on.

I don't know. That's what worries me. :laugh:

Taking TPU down and replacing it with a message, that says TPU can no longer be sustained and therefore will cease operation?

Our advertisers will rape us for doing something like that. Even in this FZ prank we made sure that one "reload", and you're sent back to TPU.
