    I already know the answer because I did a chart before I posted it. You just have to use process of elimination. I won't give it away either though.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>What happened with DsounG?</div>Reppin, Tony, 7Goat, pretended Dsoung died(he would later find out and get on it as well), planned it out elaborately. I would say most of the members took offense to it as I did as well. It was really tasteless in humor imo and moreso Dsoung had recently made a topic about his grandmother passing that led him to taking time off the board. That leeway gave way to the prank being made. Gist of it right there.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>So DsounG found out and played along? If he didn't care then why did anyone else?</div>Considering he was mourning a death to someone close to him, but then decided to make fun of death as whole by pretending to be dead. It made no sense to me. It was just a tasteless mind game that was unneeded.
