someone take a screenshot of their irc channel for me, please
I was under the impression th0r is in fact the trader r4c00n, or whatever the hell his name was a few years back. Oh yeah, just the guy I'd like to give snapshots to.
WTF
keep people for a year and after that it's appeared to be April fool's day
it wasn't even April suckers
How did they "keep" people? They didn't tell anyone to keep checking the site, they didn't tell anyone to idle in their IRC etc.
It didn't say anything about coming to life on 10/10/10. It was the people visiting that page that speculated that it was going to return. Not one staff member from FTWR said that it would return, in fact most (if not all) denied there would be a resurrection of the site.
^^^^^^^^^^^^
I've not heard any one denying it
this topic was alive for a year and they didn't deny it
please correct me if I'm wrong
I'm denying it now .
You apparently never talked to anyone who staffed FTWR, it doesn't matter what anyone else did or didn't do. The people who kept this thread alive were hoping for a different outcome on that date, they were mistaken. And as far as this thread not being denied, why should they of even bothered to respond to it, the website was pretty clear on this. It wasn't/isn't their fault that people speculated differently and chose to ignore what the page actually said, all those people saw was a countdown and assumed that the site (after taking a year off would come back) which in and of itself is hard to believe that anyone in their right mind would think that a year layoff would somehow be a good thing for any tracker.
No if I was them I'd never "lower "myself to taking ten seconds to clarify something here either .
Plea ease if the intent wasn't to create just this type of situation and have a good laugh at other people'sexpenseignorance then why the need for a (fake) countdown timer anyway?
Btw I actually have talked to a couple people that staffed FTWR hence the superiority comment.
so in the end, will uk-t ever come back ?
oh wait, wrong thread :dabs:
