Yes, it was an April's Fool prank. I've never played a prank on so many people at the same time. It was a unique and lovely experience.

Big BIG thanks to everyone who posted a comment, you guys made my day!! Enjoy what remains of the fool's day and your weekends.

This is far from unheard of.

In their defense, it is not a realistic expectation for them to continue to love you after you declaring your hate like that. Saying "Hey if you dislike our site so much then why would you continue using it", while shortsighted and knee-jerk, is not entirely unreasonable.

Yes, same thing happened to me. I guess this is not a free country. No great loss...good riddance. The Kestrel told me he got nothing of bashing from the comments I posted at the onset. But it doesn't take much of anything to ruffle GF's admin. Instead of putting his energy into pleasing his customers, I am sure he spent too many hours going after them if they said anything he deemed "bashing."

By the way, I don't know if this is a counter-joke from the Globalfight side, but the admin over there sent out this message to (I presume) all its members today:

"Regarding the recent hack of Meetfighters we would like to assure you our data or user passwords have not been compromised by this vicious attack aimed at BOTH our websites.

"We at GlobalFight are constantly fighting off attacks each week and they have only gotten more intense the past few months as with ALL websites in the world.
If ANYONE knows how to contact the admin (or even WHO the admin or owners are at Meetfighters) please have them contact us so we may exchange data on hackers to build up both our defenses. We have been trying without success many times this year during waves of attacks to contact someone at Meetfighters in an attempt to exchange hacker data in efforts to build defenses against these assaults.

"PASSWORD NOTICE! Since many users have the same password on both sites we suggest changing your password on GlobalFight but NOT change it on Meetfighters till they have their site fully back under control as your passwords might still be visible to hackers till they fully have regained admin control."

I replied to this message and told the Globalfight admin that if this was their own idea of a joke it wasn't at all funny. It seems like it must be an attempt at humor, since how would they have known about a "hack" of Meetfighters while also claiming to not know how to contact the admin of Meetfighters? How would they even have found out about the "hack"?

But by far, this here site is the best of all the sites to find genuine wrestlers and similar. Good to have competing sites; as it keeps them on their toes to have a better product. [Be funny as hell if all the aforementioned sites are part of one big conglomerate].
