(But wouldn't forum-fu be more appropriate in this case?)

I was refering to Goob's (or whoever implemented the current filter) script-fu in perl or python (or whatever they use). Maybe one day they will extend the script to include the usual tricks to circumvent the filter.

[The E]

Yeah. After witnessing the whole "pregnancy" thing, I guess script-fu IS appropriate.

The link hijacks and mom thing are slightly funny. The REALLY funny part is watching guys flip out over how much they hate it.

Is this the best you can do HLP? Changing you to your mom?

[The E]

Well, there is a second component this year. You're bound to see it sooner or later.

That cracks me up every single year, too, and it's just as good on Pirate Day.  One would think that the complainers could figure out how to avoid accessing the boards for all of 24 hours.

I'd really like a "Return to Babel" day...members' posts are supposed to be in their home languages...

That'd be better, Pirate Days and April Fools stuff are centered on native English speakers' language and culture. Needless to say that, unlike Pirate Days and April Fools, "Return to Babel" is FS-ish...

Hey guys, I don't really know who else to go to with this. This will probably come as a surprise to you in more ways than one, but... I'm pregnant.

[Mobius]

That one...

[IceFire]

Its April 1st...the day people are supposed to realize that life isn't all serious and your mom should take things on a lighter note.

Lighten up...we can do depressed for the rest of the year if your mom want   (and by your mom I mean the person that is reading this message and not a maternal figure)

[Mobius]

A Return to Babel day would be better.

[Commander Zane]

Not really, since mine would still be English.

[Mobius]

Yeah, that'd be the funny part. Both the Pirate Day and the April Fools are centered on native English speakers...let's have more variety...

Does something brilliant happen if I intentionally type out your mom?

Aw, shucks.

[Mobius]

Not really since no one would understand each other and that would cause the communication to cease in the forum.

That's pretty much what happens during PD and AF days...

[Blue Lion]

I was kinda hoping if someone typed out "you" it would turn into something else. Alas, no.

[The E]

A Return to Babel day would be better.

Not really since no one would understand each other and that would cause the communication to cease in the forum. You would have to use the online translators I use to translate it, but they are not perfect.

So do the randomizer thing. Don't treat every post that way, just, say 1 in 100. And you'd still be able to get the original text by quoting the babeled post.
