http://www.kontractkillers.co.uk
Despite the url i can assure you 100% it is a joke website .
About 6 months ago (or whatever) when i started to learn PHP i did this as a way of improving my php skills as building a full website is sometimes more valuable that just messing around with php code snippets .
For want of a better description - its kinda like a hire a hit man survey .
- some people complete the questions in full
- some people bottle out about half way the process
The following is what i use as a bookmark and you dont need to go though the full process if you dont want too .

Cool! Obviously I knew it was a joke site from your post, but I went all the way through just to see what happened in the end! A good stress-buster if you're a bit angry with someone too.

I used to have another joke website that pretended to sell cannabis via the internet .
It looked just like a proper commercial website and some people where really taken in by it to the extent they where *really* *really* annoyed at the end of the buying process when they got told it was a joke website .
At the end of the process i had a feedback form and some users had no problem venting their anger as they thought they had found heaven .
Some of the comments and suggestions aimed at me are unsuitable for a family forum like web user .
If memory serves - the first year turnover was about £2,000,000 and like them i wished it was a real website as well :-)

I'd love to have seen the cannabis one, but I can understand why people might have been a bit annoyed!

I had it on a couple of different web hosting companys and none of them had a problem with it as i emailed them first to explain it wasnt a real website - some of them even thought it was quite funny .
I still have it on the hard disk - but i have other work to do and dont want to get sidetracked as it would need some work done to it first before being brought back online .
If neither of you are in a rush i guess i could revive it in about 2 weeks or summit .
Some joke websites are best left undone though .
I had a idea for fake fast food resturant that sold dog burgers - with the company logo being a dogs head with its tongue hanging out .
But like i said some things are best left undone as i value my good health and dont like hospital food :-)

I like this website. I think the other one that you have would be funny too.

That would be great if you have time to do it, but don't worry if you haven't. I'll keep looking out for it though, just in case!

I cant really get sidetracked from doing the www.phpnews.co.uk website and while its a case of never say never its unlikely to appear for at least a 4-6 weeks the way things currently stand .
But yeah everybody liked it :-)

Obviously your website must take priority over something frivolous, but I'll check back here from time to time anyway. I like your site, do you get Xargs only in Glasgow?

I might have a couple of screenshots of the cannabis website on the hard disk - will have a look later .
As you can imagine the Xarg stuff is just for testing :-)
Your welcome to write some made up storys in you want .

The website was worked on and improved since these screenshots where taken - but they are close enough to get the idea .
I will be deleting these screenshots in about 24-48hrs time and anybody interested can put them on their own webspace if wanted .
I never did get around to asking the Xargs what they thought of the cannabis window website :-)

Thank you very much! I've had a look at all the links and it was an excellent site, I can see how people would have been fooled by it. You should get the Xargs to look at your screenshots before it's too late!
