Me and Bobby Pyn were discussing about making an Ebaumsworld prank call team, in which we discuss ideas for new and upcoming prank calls for the forum. If you're interested feel free to join this team. Don't look upon it as a job, just look upon it as a hobby. There will be a website dedicated to the prank calls, and we'll sell some Cds with the best prank calls. We'll even advertise a few good pranks. If we do receive some profit, give me some ideas on how to split the money with certain members of the team, because that is the only problem i see so far.

Feel free to join in if you think this is a good idea. If you want to join, just put in a "Ebaumsworld prank call team" in bold small letters in your signature, but first post in this thread.

And we can discuss everything in private messages or in chat rooms on which prank calls to make, and the ideas.

I like it, I guess I could join up

The only thing is that problems usually start when you try to sell cds with prank calls. I mean legal problems. First of all it is illegal to record people on the phone without their permission so if you put these on a cd and sold it for a profit and the authorities or the people who were pranked found out we would all be fucked. We would be better off just putting up the pranks online like normal.

Yeah, i guess you're right. I guess we'll start this up as a regular hobby then.
Alright, let's start putting the characters in our signatures, and we'll see how this works out.

Hey WayneHead,

This sounds like it could be fun and bring in a lot of great prank calls, but all I ever said to you was that, yeah, you should do it and that I can't really be a big part of this because I have a lot of things going on.

As far as selling cd's, I already do that on my own. Also, I'm thinking that if you were to start some sort of Ebaums World prank call team and sell cd's you might want to get permission first from Ebaums World first?

About recording people and it being illegal, that's not entirely true. Many states are what's called one party states which means only one party has to know that the call is being recorded, ie.- you! So I wouldn't worry to much about that.

But back to the whole prank call team idea, like I said I think it has potential but it was all your idea and you sent me all of 2 pm's about it, we didn't "really" talk about it. Have fun with this idea but I'm sure you can understand I have a lot going on and will gladly make a few pranks here and there but in no way can I be labeled as a person who started this up or anything.

Have fun!

Yea, i wasn't saying that we shouldn't record anyone (I do it every call), just pointing out the fact that some places it is illegal. But i didn't know that one party thing so that's pretty cool.

so should we put the thing in our sigs now or what?

Yeah. Put it in your signatures, and if any of you have an idea, just email all of us, and when we're all online or if some of us are online, we can make the prank. Or if we want a big prank phone call, pm us to a chat room, and we can discuss what to do there. :)

I'd like to get back into the real good, quality stuff. I just need to get a mic so I can get back into it all. Me and a few other guys did some really nice quality calls a while back, posted 'em on here.

I've found a few new programs for this type of recreation as well, so I will probably get back into it.

Hey, good to see you back. I remember doing a few calls with you last summer.

We've got a bit of a "team" over at jackulator.com, the members prank calls section is filled with hilarious soundboard pranks from our members. Good idea BTW

Yeah I wanna join. These telemarkters have been calling my house every day since the summer. So recently I have been pranking them haha. I need to buy a microphone though.

Also this old lady keeps calling asking for Ray. Because this is the number listed. We tell her no Ray lives here. But she must have memory problems and forgets. So she keeps calling. Next time she calls I am going to prank her.

You could use the Pacino board with the Ray quotes when she calls

Or get VOIPBuster, it is 100% free and you can call international too. You know how fun it is to call Melbourne at 3am when it is still mid noon in Canada?
