Okay,
I’ll keep this short and simple.
Basically, I wanted to apologize for making the “GBATemp Singing Thread”.
It’s removed now, so don’t try to search for it. It’s gone.
I’ll explain why it got taken off;
Basically the post was supposed to be this wacky and funny shitpost where I would take a quote and copy/paste it over and over again, change the names, and then change the text of the quote to be the lyrics of a song.
This way it would look like the GBAtemp users were singing the song.
Even though the thread didn’t break any rules...
It ended up raping every single user I quoted with notifications. What especially sucked is that these were famous members, like Chary and Costello and shit.
Now I know what you’re thinking:
“How did you not expect them to get notifications? You know by now that getting mentioned will end up notifying users!”
THE REASON WHY I DIDNT SEE THIS COMING:
I thought that because there was a USER ID in the quote’s script, you would be able to change the threads content and USERNAME and the notification would only be sent to the USERS ID, therefore only @VinsCool
Would end up being notified (it was her quote that I sampled).
IT TURNS OUT THAT THE USER ID SERVES NO PURPOSE AND THE NOTIFICATION GETS SENT TO THE USERNAME INSTEAD!
So basically it ended up spamming notifications to all the users, by complete accident.
Nonetheless, the post wasn’t hated or anything. It was in the EoF after all. It was just taken off as to not spam all those people with notifications.
PLEASE don’t let this negatively affect your opinion of me, this was just a mistake I made based off of the misleading quote script.
So please, have mercy.
Also thanks @Idontknowwhattoputhere
