    I would absolutely donate to Everypony, if I wasn't in huge debt. Hopefully my activity and creative contribution is worth a lot to you.

    Oh my God, Grey! My heart was pounding for a moment there until I got to the part where it said "Ponycard," then I was suspicious. I was thinking:

    • "Wait, I thought he said he wouldn't accept donations."​
    • "Is this going to be affordable?"​
    • "Should I really pay?"​
    • "If I can't, how am I going to survive without these forums?!"​
    Then I saw it was a joke and thought.
    • "Oh, you!" :p
    Good one, Grey. That not only scared and worried me for a bit, but made me laugh very hard. It's nice to know that you haven't really enabled a premium service. It's also great to know that this site has an administrator with a sense of humor. You rock! Woo hoo!

    +Repped for making me lol hard, Mr. Nightmare. :)

    That post was hilarious Eponymous.

    If I am successful in getting a part time job and getting out of debt. I will throw money at my screen too.

    When I first saw this...
    [video=youtube;bSxD7ANFONM] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSxD7ANFONM[/video]
    Nah Gray wouldn't do that to us... would he?

    Once i kept reading my brain started to feel like...
    [video=youtube;vbvMl9jY7Aw] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbvMl9jY7Aw[/video]
    He can't be doing this... after all, didn't he say this would always be a free website? or was i reading something else? Hopfully i don't have to pay... I don't have enough spare money to be able to buy this...
    *look at Firing list*
    Wow... Did he just lay them off for no reason? will there be new jobs available?


    Once i saw it was a joke: View attachment 1203

    Don't scare us like that...

    ... Funny thing that... you remember back when I asked you, Grey: "Hey, you guys got a Paypal or something? Because I'd love to donate to the site!"

    Anyway, yes, my reaction to the news was VERY mixed at first but overall very relieved that it was, in fact, a joke. Being on the internet I've always taken everything with a grain of salt. Good thing I took a step back and actually read the whole post.

    But seriously...

    Oh Grey, you're such a kidder! I had my suspicions right away when I first started reading, and quickly caught on. I definitely needed the laugh today, and for that I thank you.
