Prudence and LSPE said it so well.
While it was a joke, the fact of the matter is it could have been very real. To think that this board is less vulnerable to a recurrence of events from the past because it's *exclusive* is silly. As it is there were quite a few unintentional results that were unfunny. Things were said out of anger. Feelings were hurt. This whole event could have been very real.
I'm glad that most of the people on here found it humorous. But I find the dismissive attitude of lighten up get over it and move on it was just an April Fools joke quite insulting. I find nothing funny about playing with peoples emotions and I hope that the damage (while little) that was done can be healed instead of creating a divide.
