So, when (or even if) we ever do anything like this again, what can we do to keep it from getting out of hand like this?
I would make it clear from the start that it was an act, and give users the choice of joining in the act, watch it all unfold with popcorn/other treat of choice, or ignoring it altogether.
Definitely making it clearer, especially in a case like this so nobody gets attached to anything that isn't real or worries about someone over something that didn't happen. And also I think someone else mentioned actually doing it like right around Halloween and not dragging it out for week(s) prior. Part of the reason why I didn't suspect anyone of lying was because Nemona's account joined and all this started like...a week or two ago? I expected a Halloween event, but not weeks of deception. Even when something seemed off and I was like "has AI really gotten to where it can do that...?" I didn't see a reason to doubt anyone just because it's October. Like several said, I trusted the staff and didn't think they would lie about something so serious...the entire month, anyway.
