    It's that time of year again when fake releases are out in full force

    Personally, I think it's a fun event but here at NU, we don't accept fake releases and it's a bit of a mess to clean up so we'll need your help. If you spot a fake release, I would appreciate it if you could take a minute to report it as shown in the screenshot below:

    Or you can report it directly using this link: http://www.novelupdates.com/report-problem/

    Thanks!

    Do you actually delete the April-Fools-Chapters on the spot, or wait for the 1st April to be over??

    Just let it happen already tony, we've always wanted one year where you're too busy to delete them on time

    Debating if it's worthwhile trawling through links simply in the hopes of experiencing the thrill of chancing upon and reporting April Fool's chapters when I hardly read any novels on NU anymore... :blobconfused:

    Just been to Baka Updates and must say I was surprised to see they haven't got their usual dire warning out yet...

    If anyone catches a release, post it on this thread too It's always a joy reading through them.
    It's faded out of practice recently but for april fools TL's used to getup to some wacky shennanigans from simple fake chapters to more elborate stuff, both were a blast to watch and see the various reactions to them

    I've said, or at least thought all of those fool posts should get their own thread in the forum so folks can go check them out and not disrupt the main flow. Though I know it's a bitch with those auto drops some sites use.

    Been on this site for about 6 years, and it's my first time knowing that April Fools is such a big event on NU.

    Tony, just open up a stickied thread so TLs can directly post april fools updates rather than the usual trawling for fake links.

    Maybe the real fake releases were just the filler chapters we read everyday?
