CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/4483241.stm.htm

According to BBC, there's a new "zombie" infection that's started in Cambodia.

Wowsers! That's scary and really wierd!

yeah man. bad bioweapon too.

I think its a hoax. 1) The site is a different web adress to BBC (though it links to it. )
2) I searched for 'Cambodia' and 'Quan'sul' on the site, and nothing came up that was related to the story. (edit: I also searched for zombism)

So, someone has been extremely clever and bored enough to create a site that looks exactly like the BBC site

Heh. That's humorous, but I'm quite certain it is fake; it alone is run from an obscure proxy, and it cannot be backlinked from the BBC site.

Yeah kinda how CAA was run on for all those weeks.

Someone had a lot of time on there hands.

tried to go on link and the thing is shut down...man i wanted to read it too lol

At frist when I click on the link, I got worried that maybe the hoax webpage had something else in it as like a virus or hack tool or something.


Blah, I'm just worried over nothing.

I just kick myself for now looking at link IP address frist.

What did it say...
Even though it was a hoax I'm curious. Someone would have to be awful clever to perfectly mimic a site like that....anyways, I am curious, so what is this Zombism suppposed to be?

Cambodian Troops Quarantine Quan'sul

Cambodian troops moved into Quan'sul after Malaria victims attack populace.
There has been a small outbreak of “zombismâ€

The website works for me Smart of you people to notice the server was different... I just did a google search and noticed that no other news channels mentioned it

Pretty funny hoax though

I believed every word of it! I feel stupid. I'm too trusty and I've always been quite gullible! Still a very interesting hoax.

Hey, I know why the website didnt work for some of you guys: frwl cleverly tricked us with teh URL by making it appear to be different text than the link.. nice...

^^; I didn't figure it would live long. Oh well, here is the trace, for the techies out there.

Hmmm..

I got my hopes up. All those zombie movies, suddenly I realised I would be able to hunt down zombies and get obligatory hot girls...ITS ALL RUINED. *turns to people who made that site* STOP PLAYING WITH MY EMOTIONS YOU MONSTERS

That was...interesting. Strangely enough, I had no initial reaction to that article. Usually I will go into a researching frenzy while mumbling something about government conspiracies.

You know, this could be a great plot for a video game. Maybe the government officials are all evil necromancers plotting to take over the world with their zombie Cambodians! Ahaha...I like this thread. Maybe we can turn it into some kind of bizarre RPG! That would be fun. Ahahahahaha! *falls asleep at keyboard*

*drool*

And this my friends is 1 step away from zombism... the effects of a sugar overdose falling off.

It's funny now, but do you know how scared crap I was.

Lets just say, you may not have a schedule man after my heart jump out of place.

There, is that better!

That was the other primary reason I suspected it was fake. I generally look at where a link is actually taking me, as opposed to what the text says, and when the written address seemed legitimate and the other didn't, I was suspicious. However, I figured I wouldn't mention it.

Ahh I've been a victom of somethin like that before...there was this hoax about some japanese guy making Bonsai Kittens...kittens who were bred to live in jars so that there bodies would take that shape...yeah well I looked at the bottom of the screen and there was a link from rotton.com....I felt kinda dumb...heh so don;t feel bad if you believed that.

Ah! I remember that! It was...disturbing.

Aww, that's okay, Shatterheart-sama. I'm sure there will be a hostile zombie invasion someday. *comforts Shatterheart-sama with a hug*

Someday...and when it happens the revolution will begin. Hail to the King baby. *leaves to watch some horror flicks*

I'm read for 'em:
the Zombie Survival Guide, best (secular) book ever

You can tell it was probably an April Fools Day joke. The date of the "news article" was April 1st heh. Any Resident Evil fan will go crazy with that article.

April fools jokes are best not played on April 1st.
*stabs all of the Admins of the site with a rusty knife*
Haha, april fools.
Oh wait it's not april any more.
*banned*
