Some jerk uploaded a video to YouTube entitled "RIP Jeff Lynne". It is NOT true! So, why share this? Have you seen this?!

It's a meme channel, but even still... not funny, didn't laugh.

And you shouldn't repost it here either. I suggest you take it down.

The name of the "friend" quoted is Sofia Proll, an anagram of April Fools, so this must have been intended as a joke. Not a very funny one, though.

Edit: If you check the date it was published, it was indeed an April Fool’s joke... realized that myself a few minutes ago and then it did get a chuckle out of me. Could’ve been funnier, but I’ll give you this one for today, Broken Lightbulb...

Surely it's never funny to pretend someone is dead? Especially when it's someone of older years, unless they are in on it of course.

Some people have no scruples when it comes to humour. To them, ANYTHING goes.
Wishing anyone dead is not funny in any circumstance.

I’m all for April Fools day jokes, some are hilarious and clever but not by using someone’s death, your right it doesn’t deserve any clicks.

My personal opinion is that it is in bad taste to spread inaccurate rumours about someones death. I know that your intention was to question that exact behaviour, but still - reposting it is spreading it further. Again, this is just my personal opinion. The board administrator might think otherwise.

The board administrator might think otherwise. I agree it was bad taste to have posted the video to YouTube. Eloise never inferred in the original post that the video’s content was genuine and expressed her dismay at who would do such a thing, to back up her comments a link to the video was posted. If no link to the video was given then the post would be irrelevant this is the reason it wasn’t moderated so to allow forum members to make up their own minds, the non moderation does not however mean the forum condones the content of the video.
