And here I was feeling bad for poor Welmu and the rest of Eclypsia. Shame on you, shame on you. | ||

Granted, where I grew up April Fool's day jokes were supposed to "fool" people but do so in such a way that everyone could have a laugh about it afterwards. Perhaps that's why I find this so stupid. | ||

I hate April Fool's Jokes in general anyways, they are either A: Obvious and mehfunny, B: Bring you up then tear you down, or C: Tear you down and says "JK LULZ". | ||

If they had the best players in the world I really doubt you'd support them either. Your last line was just a cheap shot because you got fooled! | ||

Folks shouldn't take drama threads seriously, especially when they are posted on April the the first! Honestly, in this day and age I didn't think people were this gullible. And remember, there's no such thing as bad publicity! | ||

I applaud any team that is actively hiring new blood -"uknowns" as some people posted in this thread- and provides a good and supportive enviroment for them to work in. This gives hope to talented players that they can follow their dream and maybe some day become part of a bigger team or even better, make Eclypsia a worthy team to be in. | ||

I really don't think that them making a team and just posting this opening thread would give them so much feedback other than the usual "GL to..." .. | ||
