    @Shigawire said: I woke up this morning.. checked this thread and nearly died. WTF. Moving from IT to RO. Then I saw the promo codes and now I am disappointed that they don't work anymore ;(

    Btw yes exactly that's why a lot of people, me included, dislike April 1st.

    Consider what a customer feels when seeing this thread
    1) annoyed at the supposed VPS move to an unfamiliar location, and all the ruckus and mess that's probably going to occur during the ownership transfer;
    2) afraid to lose the good quality service they used to have with Prometeus;
    3) seeing all the coupons and realizing it was a joke;
    4) disappointed because none of the coupons work anymore;
    5) tired and just closing this browser tab, hating 1st April a tiny bit more.

    Sorry to rain on the parade, but it is very rare that a lot of people get a good laugh from April-1st-style jokes besides the "organizers".

    One still works, but it's "just" 45% OFF... I agree that the 90% (??) OFF coupon or even the 80% OFF coupon ran out pretty quickly

    @rm_ I think the majority of people here enjoyed such a well performed and thought out practical joke :).

    Overall it's been a success for @Prometeus and @Maounique and I for one was both shocked and fooled by the first post :D. Smiles (mostly) all around though and a fantastic Easter egg offer too :).

    Not many others would have the balls (ballsvps lmao) to do such a thing so I take my hat off to them :)

    well youtube put a lot of effort and money in their 'april 1st' prank:

  • I'm confused, did they actually open a 2nd location?

    It's April fools joke. No changes with prometeus/iperweb. Just coupon codes with huge discounts

    A lot more suckers than one would have anticipated.

  • Too bad all the posted coupon codes are now dead :)
