This might seem old fashioned of me, but there's this rule (http://www.phonelosers.com/index.php?topic=152.0) on the PLA Forums that states, "Although we love prank calls here, we do not promote the abuse of emergency services for the sake of a prank call.  Do not make prank calls that will directly or indirectly affect 911, police, fire, SWAT, or other emergency services.  SWATTING, bomb threats, and threatening phone calls will never be tolerated here."

Also, doesn't it seem kind of dumb to put calls up where you harass police and fire departments?  Skype can be traced.  YouTube can be subpoenaed to get your IP address.  Stick to fun, innocent pranks!

Point taken, but on the extended audio call you can hear that I wasn't dialing emergency services, it was the front desk of the fire station (i think), so no rescue of kittens were hampered by tieing up of emergency services switchboard operators- as I understand it that's what the danger is right? That somebody could die in the few seconds it would take to transfer an emergency call?

I held off uploading the video for a while actually because I wasn't pleased with the thought of getting my youtube account shutdown over it... but I can't really see anything wrong with it after I realised that the emergency services weren't technically involved...

Point taken anyway, i'm not planning on calling them back  *rainbowsmiley*
