Greetings, Users. Our system may be experiencing some residual glitches from a recent network malfunction. Our technical team is working on getting these issues under control. Please direct any concerns in the meantime to the HR department at humanresources@retrospec.com. Our staff has furthermore noticed a significant increase in tags and trends for #aprilfools and #pranks. Keep on your toes and be certain to tag your best tricks for Retrospec™! Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. Any emails sent to the HR department will be returned with a failure to send notification, and will furthermore automatically be posted to the Retrospec network. Oops? Characters who have been in game for one month will find they can now change their profile pictures. Glitches will be in effect until the 15th and may include: -Usernames changing to a cat, dog, or bird pun. -The Retrospec application being changed into a neon color + animal theme of some variety. -Notifications going off at random and being unable to be turned off. -Various "special effects" crossing the screens when people comment. -Users having to beat a level of pac-man to access the application, and then being made to beat a new level every hour to keep using the application. -Thomas the Tank Engine memes being sent to users every hour for some reason. -Profile pictures being replaced by pictures of rabbits and easter eggs. -New creepy pasta stories appearing upon log-in, to be forwarded to someone before the app can continue to be used -Parental lock and auto-correct on cursing (i.e. fuck -> duck) -A parade of pixel Chocobos or dancing fruit scrolling across the screen after each comment posted

Rachat Hishimura Last month felt more like glitches.
Rachat Hishimura This feels more like someone playing around.

Augustine Sauveterrier Very true to the spirit of April Fools.
Augustine Sauveterrier Although the parental filter is a nice addition, though.

Rachat Hishimura One step forward, I guess. Most teenagers use worse language already though.
Rachat Hishimura ... Said the teenager herself.

Augustine Sauveterrier Though, I doubt if it will stay permanent.
Augustine Sauveterrier Most of the users here might not like it.

Rachat Hishimura Multiple people have made that clear, yes.

[megabond]

Augustine Sauveterrier I can see by their complaints so far.
Augustine Sauveterrier Regardless, I think our best move for now is to endure these glitches until they are "fixed".

Rachat Hishimura So same as we've been doing, then.

[megabond]

Augustine Sauveterrier I'm afraid so.
Augustine Sauveterrier There's nothing we can do but to adapt to this situation.

[clear_eyes]

Rachat Hishimura Well, I definitely have no problem with doing that. Until we can find a way to be more proactive, learning to cope is the best way to do things.

[megabond]

Augustine Sauveterrier That is good to hear.
Augustine Sauveterrier But if you are having any problems, just make sure you contact me, okay?

[clear_eyes]

Rachat Hishimura Well, I have a few people I can go to already. One more won't hurt I guess.

[megabond]

Augustine Sauveterrier I see.
Augustine Sauveterrier Also, my last name is Sauveterre. I hope that clears that up.
Augustine Sauveterrier Regardless, take care and be careful out there.

Rachat Hishimura The same goes for you. Take care.
