Accidentally deleted the Source Code Project.  Sorry about that.  It was the one thing on HLP that might have been halfway-decent.

I'm willing to bet money, that he only hid it from all usergroups.

and there's always the backups which our beloved admins have.

He'll have to do better than that to worry me.

Of course, apparently the hosted project list has been cut down by half now....

This is becoming incredibly disturbing, fast.

Sigh, I login this morning on the 2nd of April and all this. Bit firghtened, but the fact I can't gain access to some of the forums when I had to check stuff... :(

Some posts in the (now invisible) hosted projects subforums had a "quality" that only the real an0n could deliver....
Title: Whoops...
Post by: redsniper on April 01, 2005, 06:16:08 pm
Now I'm starting to get worried. It's so easy to believe either way. The admins could've just used an0n's account to scare us mortals. Or an0n really has taken over and is posting with admin's accounts to keep up the charade of this being a joke. If this is for real it was quite clever of him to do it on April Fool's since a lot of people are sure it's a joke.
Title: Whoops...
Post by: Grey Wolf on April 01, 2005, 06:17:36 pm
It's an0n. Just trust me on this.

Post by: Genryu on April 01, 2005, 06:21:26 pm
Given tha an0n's specialty is to srew over the admins when they **** up security by not looking closely at the sfilter they use, given that there's always a filter active on april 1st, and given that they pissed him off last time they banned him... I'd say there's more than a chance that it's really an0n and he's really doing this ****in idiocy of deleting forums...

Yarr! :arr: That's because you haven't been posting in the Hosted Projects forums, which An0n appearantly screwed with.

I don't know if it's a joke or not. If it is, the Admin's certainly got us good! If it's not, well, then let's hope for the best.
