Tomorrow is April Fool’s Day. Last year we had some small problems with one or two regular members sock-puppeting on the idea that on this one day we might relax a bit and let them get away with it. We won’t. The rules won’t change tomorrow just because it’s April Fools Day. Just a pre-emptive warming. Thanks. You may now return to your regular nattering and gromishing. ---

It isn’t April Fools yet, silly. There’s no need to play one on us early. ---

I think I’ll go tell posters in other fora to drop by MPSIMS to have a look at Euty’s Oh. Wait a minute. I think I smell a possible cross-posting infraction here… Well, is it? Isn’t it?? Decisions, decisions… It’s driving me nuts.
