    Default IH Coup IH

    On 29 July, 2011, at approximately 9:00 pm Easter Standard Time, an attack was carried out upon the leadership of the Interactive History Community.

    Unknown agents, under the directives of unknown aggressors, launched a cyber attack against our beloved leader, Barry Goldwater. The virus they unleashed upon Barry Goldwater attacked without warning and without provocation.

    It is with great sorrow and regret that I must inform you: at 9:08 pm, Barry Goldwater's PC died.

    With the leadership of the community's computer eliminated in a vile assassination, and evil agents still threatening the sanctity of our beloved community, I, in conjunction with Gunny, have taken steps to assume governance and launch crackdowns against our opponents. Martial law has been instituted. Elements of the IH armed forces having taken control of the Archives, Roleplay, and Diplomacy forums. This is for your own protection.

    In following the proper line of succession, as delineated in open and untainted elections held by the IH community in the past, Gunny and I are undertaking our mandated roles as Local Moderators.

    Already we are making headway against the plot. We will fight on, in memory of the martyr Barry Goldwater! If you suspect an infiltrator in our ranks, do not fear to speak up! It is for your good; it is for their good.

    Never forget!

    LONG LIVE INTERACTIVE HISTORY








    AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE PRANK:

    Just as a note, Barry's computer is fine (I opposed that being added in btw ) and Kip and I won't abuse our power (well... again )

    Note that this WAS supposed to remind you of the Nazis, and thanks guy for playing along with this new style of IH

    when the union's inspiration through the worker's blood shall run,
    there can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun,
    yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one?
    but the union makes us strong.

    It would appear the enemies of the IH are pacified, continue about your normal business.
