The cafe will be closing 4/2/2009

[ubuntu-geek]

You may have noticed in the past we are migrating towards a more ubuntu support based forum cutting out the unnecessary area's such as OS talk and OMGPP.

So, today will be the last day for the cafe. Enjoy and we hope you understand our decision.

[aeiah]

:roll:

[steeleyuk]

Nice try. But FAIL!

[s.fox]

Can you close the forum games section while you are at it? :D

[sydbat]

Yay!!!

[ubuntu-geek]

Nice try. But FAIL!
Oh this isnt a joke :)

I hope this is true, as then people can finally spend less time on here. ;)

[Dr Small]

FUNNAAY! Don't worry. We'll make the mods busy with our new regime :D

[billgoldberg]

[mips]

Oh this isnt a joke :)

If you announced this any other day but today I would believe you ;)

Btw, where is the banner notification for the closure, you should add one :confused:

[sujoy]

What's next, pink forums?

Nah, Ubuntu will now drop i386 support and only support i686 and x86_64.




As an announcement, shouldn't this be a sticky anyway, for full effect?

Naw... they're going to only cover PPC chips in hopes to get in good with IBM!

[bapoumba]

Can you close the forum games section while you are at it? :D

Nah, Cafe is enough for now.

In before it's gone :tongue:

Given the new color scheme, I totally applaud this decision. Noone's gonna want to hang out here anymore, anyway.

[Simian Man]

That would be awesome if you did this because everyone's assuming it's a joke.

[SuperMike]

I certainly hope this is all in jest. You just don't make announcements of any sort on April 1. No one will believe you. It's not even worth it. Not in a company to your employees, not in a forum, not even to your wife.

Pink was last year If I am remembering right.

[Christmas]

Thank god it's April 2 now here where I stand (I was kind of getting tired of 9 out of 10 articles on the Linux news sites with only April Fools' jokes).

[dragos240]

Oh I really hope this is an april fools! :(

[swoll1980]

It's not a joke you can read the official announcement here ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1113049&page=4 (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0)

[smartboyathome]

Oh I really hope this is an april fools! :(

This isn't, as Ubuntu-Geek is the head admin here, and would never lie to us. It would be unprofessional, and also could get Canonical sued.

I almost cried.

[dragos240]

WAIT A SECOND! Why isn't this a sticky? Shouldn't it be? Also how could ubuntuforums be a community forum if there is no place to discuss other things community-ish.

[mamamia88]

i really hope this is a joke because if it isn't i really have no reason to come here anymore. i used to come here when i had tech problems but now i don't have any problems

[dragos240]

I think this is a joke, no announcement that is stickied, posted on april fool's day, and that would defeat the cause of being a community forum! This is a fake, hopefully sometime ubuntu-geek will say april fool's, if he doesn't then :(.

[Giant Speck]

Nah, Cafe is enough for now.

In before it's gone :tongue:

Closing the Community Cafe in favor of keeping the Community Games forum up would be a horrible, stupid mistake, joking or otherwise.

[gletob]

Yeah no, not funny. You could give me a heart attack with that nonsense.

+0, games are something to keep the human race from dying, but closing the community cafe is nearly as bad, kill another subforum!!

Despite all the OS-bashing, FUD sloshing and bickering that occurs in the Community Cafe, I think many of the discussions that do occur there are a hell of a lot more valuable and worth reading than:

BUMP

BUMP

BUMP

ZOMG! 10,000th BUMP! Yay me!

[Giant Speck]

I take it he's on a cruise?

Unless he's on his way to Bermuda, I don't think that area is a very prime cruise location.

My thoughts exactly. I was just about to post something about that but you beat me to it. If this was a serious post, they would either highlight it in a rounded box at the top of the forum, or post it as a sticky. They would also not do it one day before the event. Last, they would likely not do it on April 1.

So, this is kind of a sick joke.

[schauerlich]

Then perhaps he crashed his jetpack on his way across the pond.

[Giant Speck]

He doesn't use a jetpack anymore. He rides on the back of an enormous mosquito.

Ballmer?

[suitedaces]

tl;dr Was this an April Fools, or will I be able to stop wasting my free hours here? :lolflag:

[dragos240]

we are not sure

[Giant Speck]

Ballmer?

Now that was funny as hell. Thanks for that. :)

[Foster Grant]

Only one thing to do then:

http://www.wamc.net/fedora.jpg

[dragos240]

fedora?

[ivaarsen]

fedora?

Either that or Indiana Jones - but that doesn't make any sense.

[ivaarsen]

Oh, I definitely LOL'd.

Good show! The ASCII face-palm is getting saved!

[Sinkingships7]

Either that or Indiana Jones - but that doesn't make any sense.

I think it was supposed to mean "hats off", as in, "Hats off to the community cafe. You will forever live in our hearts."

[lukjad]

It's not a joke you can read the official announcement here ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1113049&page=4 (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0)

LOL, nice try. Is that a Rickroll?


WAIT A SECOND! Why isn't this a sticky? Shouldn't it be? Also how could ubuntuforums be a community forum if there is no place to discuss other things community-ish.

The Cafe is closed. There is not point in stickying a thread in a closed forum. Everyong posting in the Cafe is in denial. ;)

[jenkinbr]

LOL, nice try. Is that a Rickroll?

Yep, that's exactly what it is.

You're in denial, then :P

[Dragonbite]

Fedora should just use Indiana Jones' hat as their logo. An "adventure in Linux"! ;)

Hey, has anybody made the Indiana Jones hat into an icon to replace the Fedora one. Oh, I could get into a whole theme like that! What would his whip be an icon for?

Good idea.

Better no community than a shallow limited one. ):P

[Giant Speck]

Maybe the Community Cafe has already been closed and we just haven't gotten around to registering it in our minds.

Wouldn't it suck to die but not realize we have died?

[S0VERE1GN]

so, now we post our useless topics in the tutorials and tips forum?

[lukjad]

Yep, that's exactly what it is.


You're in denial, then :P

Me? I deny I'm in denial. I'm NOT in denial!!!!


so, now we post our useless topics in the tutorials and tips forum?

No, the testimonials section.

Bermuda triangle and April fools day....good combination :)

[dannytatom]

i really hope this is a joke because if it isn't i really have no reason to come here anymore. i used to come here when i had tech problems but now i don't have any problems

yeah, giving back to the community by helping others the way you were helped is totally out of the question huh?

[mamamia88]

uh i didn't mean it like that i meant that

[forrestcupp]

The Cafe is closed. There is not point in stickying a thread in a closed forum.

Also, it's counterproductive to sticky something that's important, anyway. It won't ever get read. ;)

[beercz]

Is the cafe closed yet?

[s.fox]

I expect clearing out the cafe will take time :lolflag:

Then again running some SQL should be a quick process. ;)

[jenkinbr]

*checks*
Still here.

[dragos240]

Uhh.... I think this was a haox!

[Dale61]

What's needed now is for someone to start a thread letting us all know that the Cafe is still open, and that they can still post ............................ oh wait, someone already has!

[jenkinbr]

Link please

(too lazy to look for myself)
+, the 37000 bump is just ahead - gotta keep an eye out ;)
