April Fool

[BSR]

Too funny. Got me.
Haven't been around much lately, so was like, awww crap, things have changed and I missed the posts talking about this.
Then did a little reading and started to smile thinking, too funny.

For those with the nasty emails(there are a lot of sad people in the world), they will be back I'm sure, ban them for not having a sense of humor.

So... Can I get my $20 back???

<Good 1 Baldrick!>

That is the best April F L's gag I have ever seen.

[TBoneit]

Well you got me!

I was thinking damn, Now I can't read anything today until I get home and dig out a credit card to sub.

So I went to another site dealing with Sattelite TV and then it sturck me what todays date was, I hit myself over the head and came back.

Good One

And for the user that doesn't like April 1st jokes, what a dull life you must lead!

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL !!!!!!

Good one. You really had me going. How stupid of me. I logged on to the net five times and stared in disbelief at what I was seeing. Kept thinking "and they didn't even have the decency to pre-warn us" I thought "what a shame, all those guys we've built such an interesting rapore with, not going to talk to them again". I suppose I was going to go for the "trial membership", and see what everyone else was thinking, and maybe cough up. Good to see you all back guys ! (unless you've really gone and scared off anyone, like those poor souls that left comments)

[Laddydaddy]

Phew, shocked the hell out of me. I nearly fell out of my wheelchair.

[PaisanNYC]

Boy am I the fool. Just as I clicked submit, I was reaching for my wallet! LOL Its all good, I am going to see how to use PayPal and make a donation instead! This site definitely deserves it!

removed the april fool from the forum....it caused too much problems.

You shit Baldrick!!!!!!!



I came in and was looking at this screen going WTF ??? how come i never heard of this i was thinking okay, i can handle this, then i thought, i'll do a week trial to get in and see what's up And in about 60 seconds, before i hit the sub button, it hit me
What day is it

But just the people who bitched thinking it is still real make it all worth while


That is a great April Fools

EDIT:
Now after reading all the post's on this thread i was thinking the same way as some other's, i was ready to pay also, and thinking i wonder if i can pay via paypal

[tphaggerty]

Great joke. However, I was willing to pony up, videohelp has saved me a HELL of a lot more money than the $20 anyway. How do all those freeloading a**holes figure that Baldrick pays for his hosting fees etc anyway?

Use PayPal and donate if you really like this site (the joke is a great reminder to do it anyway!).

[waheed]

I dont believe i fell for it even though i knew it was April.

[jolycu]

You got me! This is my first post, and I just have to say: Excellent joke! I've been doing a lot of reading here and I would've missed this site. I even tried googling to see what others were saying. I decided to try the 1 week trial and didn't realize it was a joke until after I hit the submit button.

[reboot]

I immediately signed up for the 1 week trial, also thinking about paypal...stolen credit cards, a bank transfer from my bosses account...

Well done!

[budz]

WTH.....I was thinking geezzzz now I'm gonna have to get a PAYPAL acct......good APRIL FOOL'S DAY JOKE!!!!!

[Sabro]

woooooooooooo good one.

Can't wait for the 'How do I bypass the Baldrick Site Protection' threads.

[thor300]

Use PayPal and donate if you really like this site (the joke is a great reminder to do it anyway!).

..And thats the main reason for this april fool, right balders?
I got scared, took half a minute or so before i figured it out, so you could say i fell for it.

[tmh]

uhhhh...yea......boy am i dumb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh, and the kids got me with the old "there's an elephant in the back yard" one also.

[tacoman97x]

lol, I was about to give a nasty ass email......

[MOVIEGEEK]

Good one guys...now I need to see a doctor about this stroke you caused! :P

[Timoleon]

Heck, I clicked on the subscribe button and was going to gladly pay the $20 for the one-year privilege of accessing the site! Can' live without Videohelp.com!

[ozymango]

{bleep} you, I' don't pay for such stuff

Boy, some people sure get their knickers in a twist easily!

FWIW, I loved it!!! Thank God *somebody* still has a sense of humor out there!!!

At least you didn't write that the Martians had landed!

By the way, I think you should make everybody who sent you a nasty-gram pay for using this site.

By the way, I think you should make everybody who sent you a nasty-gram pay for using this site.

I second that... ingrates!!!!!!!

[richdvd]

**** you, I' don't pay for such stuff

[gadgetguy]

I thought this thread https://www.videohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=262978 was started to collect titles for bogus threads in the "Latest active forum topics" column of the front page for April Fools day. I think this was better though.

(Of course, then the tools section would list "wrench, hammer, screwdriver, etc.")

[Cornucopia]

You got me!

I spent minutes seeing if I could get through anyway, another 5 saying "SHIT", left for some other regular sites, came back and decided to plunk down $20 PAYPAL, since this is an important site to me, and started to submit. Could have knocked me over with a feather.
I've been so busy today (and lately), I didn't see it coming.
Good reminder about donations, though (will be forthcoming). 8)

**** you, I' don't pay for such stuff

The quotes from the e-mails are getting to be as good as or better than your original April fool's joke

[ybeard]

**** you, I' don't pay for such stuff

Even if it was turned into a pay site, I'm guessing this fool wouldn't have considered it worth his money considering the 1500 DVD's of "his own" collection of DVDs backed up.

Baldrick,
Didn't you do this once before?
