In case you hadn’t guessed – rest assured, yesterday’s “Mega Fighting Bots Help Blog” tomfoolery was all part of an April Fool’s prank thrown together by the PHB team. Did we fool you?
We loved Gamer Guy on the Creators’ Blog and decided to bring a taste of his atrocious spelling and grammar (not to mention his obsession with Mocktropica’s Mega Fighting Bots) over here to the PHB, and what better way than on the Day of Jokes? 😀
So in addition to a typo-ridden post, the comments section of said post was also flooded with both Mocktropicans standing by Poptropica’s side, as well as elite gamers espousing their favorite game, which of course can only be Mega Fighting Bots. I mean, kicking bots all day long? That’s the dream!
Several of the PHB authors were commenting as “Gamer Guy”, and we did our best to answer most of your comments, which we hope kept you entertained! 😆 Also, Blake made a post encouraging Gamer Guy’s arrival and admonishing all the haters, because, well, GG may have offended a few n00bs.
Plus, we’re not sure how many of you noticed, but we also fixed up a brand-new About page (as mentioned in GG’s post) to introduce ourselves as pro gamers (check it out!). 😉 And did you see Gamer Guy’s Gravatar profile?
And as you probably saw, we added a header for the MFBHB, changed to an MFB background, and turned the theme color gold to match it. Did you like the change? Not to worry, we’ve reverted back to the regular PHB graphics and are back to typing with proper grammar. 😛
We hope the prank didn’t scare you too badly!
love and robots from the gamer guys & girls!

Who did I get in the argument with about Pop and MFB?
That would be me. 😉
Um…this feels a little awkward. I thought it was all one person!
I am one person. 😛 There were several PHB authors posing as Gamer Guy within the entirety of the comments on the post, but it’d make sense for there to be just one person per conversation (thread of comments).
No, I just meant I thought it was one person doing the entire page.
so the PHB acted as Gamer Guy,but is gamer guy really an author of PHB?
We created a WordPress account for “Gamer Guy” to be added to this blog, but now that it’s over, he’s not actually part of the staff list. This was us pretending to be Gamer Guy, not the actual intern who posted on the Creators’ Blog.
Good. Believe it or not the MFBHB kinda creeped me out.I was about to completely QUIT this help blog
I swear going with this joke was killing my brain cells. Typing horribly is much harder than I thought. I was the one who replied to
Comic Kid’s “is this a joke?”
Huge Bite
Ropstar.
Yeah, I only posed for 3 comments but I was busy yesterday.
Yeah, typing horrible was hard for me as well. xD
This.
Darn. I was gonna chug Valley Rain and play MFB!!
Lol.
(chugs Valley Rain while playing MFB) What? Can’t hear you!
*you anti climatically loose to mega bot as you say that*
Never believe anything you see on the internet.. on April 1st, I learned that four years ago c:<
Words to live by. 😉
Well, first of all am freak out of the joke of the creator but what happen to Gamer Guy from the phb list.
He’s not actually joining the PHB staff; it was just part of the joke. The “Gamer Guy” in the comments was really several PHB authors. 😛
i new it al along but now mah grammah s permnntly hrrbl cuz of u y phb y!
Oh my gosh! You guys scared me half to death! I was about to quit this page til I saw this blog! OMG guys please don’t do that again you gave me a heart attack!
I saw the blog and was confused, but then realized it was April Fools a few seconds later, and I commented on the “About” page to go along with it. 😆
Who was playing Gamer Guy that I was talking to? lol also nice job PHB authors! That was pretty amusing and lit up my day c:
Might’ve been me, heh. Thanks, it was pretty fun! 😀
LOL likewise, Fishy! XD
I look at the date. I was like good job phb.

I knew the MFB thing was a prank, an awesome one too. xD I went along with it by typing horribly. It was fun. xD
Next year you should do Minecraft. 😀
I have a question: who replied to my comments? Just asking 😛
Gamer Guy, of course! Just kidding, I did. 😉
It was really fun though 🙂 Watching all these spelling-and-grammar master authors type rubbish 😀
LOL ikr xD

Slanted Fish: I did. c:
Haha I checked out the PHB that day just to see if there’s any April Fool’s prank like the one you guys did a few years ago (Club Penguin Help Blog). 😛
Who was the one that did the first post?
Slanted Fish: Well, I wrote the MFB post (HP helped). 😛
