Nice joke!

Two years ago my teacher played an April Fools joke! I never suspected that Scratch would too!

It is a joke people!
Look at this:

Cats were once very popular on the internets, but that time has passed. It's time to update our look and feel before we release Scratch 2.0! We thought long and hard about what new animal to choose. Then we realized the answer was staring us in the face every time we browse the webs: Ponies. Cats Scratch - something that's mean and hurtful. But what do ponies do? They Neigh! So Scratch 2.0 will no longer be called Scratch - it'll be called Neigh!

Sorry... it is. Copy and paste my sig into yours so we can keep the cat AND the pony!

RedRocker227 · 2012-04-01 11:08:00

I love how only about 20% of people realise this is just an April Fools' prank.

VanillaCreme · 2012-04-01 11:08:01

The only thing is... not EVERYONE is a brony. some people get annoyed with it. I know i do.

veggieman001 · 2012-04-01 11:09:04

Is there any way I could get a larger version of the Neigh pony, whatever her name is? (Is it just Neigh?)

It's just a bit of fun, and it'll only last for a day, so I don't see what's wrong with it

Ditto. (yay you're part of my signature revolution! big_smile )

rachmoulder · 2012-04-01 11:09:48

Umm...just one question...I like it but Neigh won't be REPLACING this Scratch will it? Please say no. Will we get both? Please say yes. I DON'T WANT TO SAY GOODBYE TO SCRATCH. EVER. Not even to say hi to Neigh. Making Neigh is okay, but please don't kill Scratch!

The scr.atch=Neigh filter is making all these posts look HILARIOUS.
