But given that none of the moderators have stepped in to lock this thread, I think that says everything we need to know. I mean, this has to be true. It's the first thread I saw when I logged into the forum. Though at times like this, I always remember my favorite quote from Abraham Lincoln: 8 minutes ago, Daniel said: Plus I think that in Canada everything has to be published about both French and English, so that could explain it. I remember when I first learned that... it was from watching Canadian Bacon! Edited April 1, 2021 by ererer 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirsten Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) Hah, wow, since I'm not seeing it myself on Hagen's Canadian or US site, I'm guessing it's a prank. One of my many jobs is dealing with corporate press releases, and all I can say is whoever did this knows their way around and should probably be applying for PR or corporate comms jobs. But it is kind of a tell to have Cory talking about the forum on a Hagen press release. Hagen would probably have more to say about themselves and their business. That said, uh, this is close enough to looking like an official press release speaking of official (and international!) business deals that whoever made it might be in hot water, legally speaking, especially if either party IS in negotiations with anyone else, or if it costs them business, or if either of them get flooded with customer questions about it. Just sayin, whoever did it, might want to have a kill switch at the ready. All the same, LOL, you got me there for a minute.

Celly Rasbora Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I should have smelled it when I read Cory's quote, but seriously, I am so gullible. Congratulations, Daniel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The disappointment is starting to set in...are you saying there might not be paid moderators as indicated in the press release? 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celly Rasbora Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 So this thread has taught me a lesson. No more posting while distracted. If I need a diversion while I wait for my work computer to do its thing, I’ll stick to the twitters where no one cares if I say something silly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
