    Tomorrow is after hours day. You are encouraged to bake a cake with some reference to the day and share it with your colleagues. Get baking. I’m almost done.

    Instructions unclear........

    Happy sticky dick day.

    It has also shown up the whiny moaning posters who don't help with After Hours!

    Yeah, this has really breathed new life into the place all right.

    If I close my eyes I can almost imagine it's 2010 again

    This was the reason why moderators were asked to drive from the 4 corners of Ireland to a covert meeting off the m7??
    Would a few PMs not have sufficed?
    What was there to discuss/organise at Location X?

    Oh I meant to reply to this.
    Some people in another forum wanted to show off and test the range of their new Electric car!

    Don't imagine 2010.
    Imagine the future.
    Imagine what you are going to do for After Hours Day.

    I expect you to bake me a cake and deliver it, in person.

    Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue

    I just burned my hand trying to bake a cake. I'm off to legal discussion to see what my options are.

    So far, its like telling people to pack a bag and be ready for a holiday for a lifetime. Then just bringing the cnuts to Leitrim.

    Sorry guys, but I'm putting it all into this year's SSF now

    Ah for fook sake.... I'm after spending like 3 hours reading this whole thread. What an absolute waste of my time. Led on by a fooking Mod no less.
    I imagine a total of 4 people actually taking part.... Unless guerilla marketing is involved on the streets of the cities..... But doubt it.

    Thanks for wasting my time. Genuinely thought there was something decent coming.... Like a decent app... But no..... Its a "do some word of mouth marketing for us because the website is in decline and we need some fresh blood to give yellow cards and bans to"
    Ugh

    So I'm caught up with the thread...

    WTF???

    So..

    - this was all a wind up to begin with and a piss poor attempt to save face

    Or

    - it's a lame attempt to throw people off whatever the REAL :rolleyes: "announcement" is

    Either way this is a spectacular own goal IMO. Even if there was some "groundbreaking" news, I think that pissing off your user base (again) probably wasn't worth it.

    Assuming this wasn't a solo run by the OP, who signed off on this nonsense??

    What a terrible thread. The announcement isn't in the op or the latest post. I'm just going to assume it's been announced that AH is now sponsored by Gearbest and there's a free nasal hair trimmer for all regular posters.

    Bake or Buy a cake and share it with others.
    Make it a day to remember.
    I know some will be disappointed with the news. I did explain it may make you happy,sad, etc. We had a lot more planned but due to certain individuals we had to move it forward because they couldn't wait.

    Wow....

    Although, I'd wager more thought went into the new thread title than the idea itself.
