I can see the section here which is directed at me and I have this to say in my defence.

Forest, I called off the prank the second you asked me to (and I'm gonna be saying the same thing to Arti) and the only reason I kept it going for that extra day is because you acted so excited about it/sad that you would miss it that I thought I would keep it up specifically so you could see. When you came on and said 'Stop the prank' as your 'hello', I shut it down. Yes, it took me a couple of minutes to do, because it involved logging out of one account and into another to reveal that it was an April Fools, but I shut it down when you ask and because you asked.

The only thing I got angry about was your tone with me. Like you said, we're close friends. And seriously, did you need to say it like that? You should know by now that I would have done what you said regardless of how you said it, so would it have killed you to throw in a 'yay, the prank was fun, but I would really like you to stop now because I feel it's getting out of hand' or something slightly more concise? Sure, I can understand that you had a bad day, but as Arti so eloquently said on her blog, we don't all need to unload our rubbish feelings on each other. I would have been fine if you'd come on, said 'please stop the prank' (one extra word! six extra letters!) and then explained you'd had a terrible day and left.

But this is just me getting my two cence in because I've been away for the past couple of days and haven't talked to anyone on IRC. Oh, and check your logs - I've already apologised for speaking to you like that - twice.
