Note: This topic has been unedited for 4990 days. It is considered archived - the discussion is over.

It seems Encyclopedia Dramatica has disappeared up its own black hole if you check their website http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com. I had looked at when it was difficult to log into here on Fiasco Day and saw that administrators were purging it of certain articles to the disgust of their regular readers. I wonder if there was a connection to that and what has happened now...anyway, now I wonder if there will be ED refugees banging on the doors here, or more likely, climbing over the walls or digging tunnels underneath...--RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 08:07, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

Probably not, no. -- T​K​F​​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​CK 08:17, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

Ah ok...now I can start work without worry. --RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 08:21, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

Don't be too sure. We may not be having new problems from them, but I'm still here.

Bring them in!

As the refugee advocates say, Bring them in! Also, stop the ED boats coming afterwards. |Si Plebius Dato' (Sir) Joe ang Aussie CUN|IC Kill | 10:58, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

I'm going to post this pic everytime I see ED mentioned in the forums. It's a nice pic of my Pa'. *sniff*, I miss Pa'. Went out for smokes and never came back, he did. Plus, since headers don't appear to be length-limited, I can just ramble on about whatever comes to mind. Which is nice. The rambling, I mean...

"Hola, me llamo ED. Oí que usted me buscaba."

No, ED is gone, long live ED! We are now free from the threat. |Si Plebius Dato' (Sir) Joe ang Aussie CUN|IC Kill | 05:17, April 15, 2011 (UTC)

Now calling itself 'http://ohinternet.com'. Is that a pun on the 'O Canada'? Seems a bit too subtle for that ex-site. --RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 06:26, April 15, 2011 (UTC)

Encyclopedia Dramatica (Website) - Frosty dah snowguy contribs KUN PLEB 23:58, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

No, I thought the only rivals were Wikipedia, ED, and Illogico. I had no idea Lurkmoarpedia existed. -- Lollipop - CONTRIBS - WRITINGS - SHOP - Now adopting! - 03:06, 18 April 2011

They didn't until ED closed and was replaced by the sanitized version, "Oh Internet". You can imagine the response of the trolls from 4chan. So lurkmoarpedia is an attempt to replace as much of ED's former content as possible, as is encyclopediadramatica.ch - both are reconstructs from archives by former ED users. -- Simsilikesims(♀GUN) Talk here. 04:02, April 18, 2011 (UTC)

It isn't so much whether ED was a worthwhile product or not but that the owners/admins there appear to have pulled something of a fast one with their user base. One day it's there, the next it isn't, or rather, a very different beast in a pressed suit and tie to attract advertisers. Nor is there yet anything by way of an explanation about what has happened. I hope if that day comes to Uncyclopedia sometime, at least the user base would receive advance notice of a dramatic change and have a chance to rescue their children before the place burns down. Or am I being a naive Noob?--RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 09:07, April 18, 2011 (UTC)

In a way... *points to the domain name* Now there wouldn't be much point in dropping the site short of some sort of Wikia-wide clonkerbonkers. Although this is Wikia...

Latest ED News

Uncyclopedia: It's all classy and shit.

A link to the apparent reason why the original ED was binned and is now being reconstructed:- http://sittingnow.co.uk/2011/04/16/want-to-know-what-happened-to-encyclopaedia-dramatica/ There now seems something of a schism, perhaps a three way one as well. --RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 11:37, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Girlvinyl (ED's former head of state) is a fat useless kike. After fucking us over with this "Oh Internet" bullshit she filed a DMCA complaint against encyclopediadramatica.ch. But yes, it is a three-way schism at this point. --EDiot 11:54, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Joseph Evers has also certainly something to do with it. Taking the rug from under us like that wasn't cool at all, especially with no prior notice. But in the end, it's cool here, no need to cry... Except DeGrippo is a sellout. And Oh internet is Oh unfunny!Mattsnow (talk) 12:18, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Well, welcome to Uncyclopedia. And put on some pants. We have standards, you know. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 19:07, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

I think it'll be great times having the cream of the crop from ED joining uncy. If uncy's standards of good writing combine with its no-nos (no wounded, dead bodies, goatse, the usual suspects), then ED's best will be fun to get to know. Like mixing the girls camp across the lake with the boys camp and seeing who will pair off with whom in the shallows. Aleister 00:09 4-20-'11

To be fair, they're both boy's camps, and they're both fat camp. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 03:44, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

Dude, you're so awesome! Cool, man! -- Lollipop - CONTRIBS - WRITINGS - SHOP - Now adopting! - 04:04, 20 April 2011

To be truthful, I liked the freedom ED granted, not the cyberbullying part. I'm glad I found Unc. But it seems the drama is still unfolding i.e. that incredibly funny article about "Oh Internet!" http://encyclopediadramatica.ch/Oh_internet Mattsnow (talk) 04:47, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

To be truthful, why is there a picture of Girlvinyl's naked ass on the main page? -- Lollipop - CONTRIBS - WRITINGS - SHOP - Now adopting! - 04:58, 20 April 2011

Because she took a picture of it. --EDiot 05:03, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

But why did they put it on? Why do I want to look at Girlvinyl's ugly butt? Why not a hot chick? Why should I not stare at a hot blonde's nice tight butt? -- Lollipop - CONTRIBS - WRITINGS - SHOP - Now adopting! - 05:10, 20 April 2011

For the lulz. And I don't know why you want to look at Girlvinyl's ugly butt instead of a hot blonde's nice tight butt. --EDiot 05:14, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

I don't want to look at Girlvinyl's ugly butt. In fact, i'm dating the hot blonde with the tight ass. (Gets high fives). -- Lollipop - CONTRIBS - WRITINGS - SHOP - Now adopting! - 05:24, 20 April 2011

Pictures please, Loli? Mattsnow (talk) 05:39, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

You made me look at her UnHot butt. What a thing to do to a fellow human being! No wonder ED was ED. That sounds like a mess over there, although it sounds like there is no more ED. Uncy should welcome your best writers with open arms and legs. And I think you'll find that lots of uncy's people like good articles rather than stupid or lutz pages, and this should be welcomed by your best writers. It's too bad about that fat chick, who started the break-up (she probably thought she owned the site since she started it, and obviously never had a wiki mindset of something jointed owned by the sites' community even if legally owned by someone). Anyway, one of your number has a page on uncy's feature nom board, and I'll drift over and vote for it. Aleister 15:23 4-20

ED is a lot of things to a lot of people. I read the Muammar Gaddafi article written by EDiot, I voted for also.:3 It is a great masterpiece. How do I get people to vote for assassin? I completely rewrote it, there's something like 2 sentences left from the original. The pee review I guess? Mattsnow (talk) 16:27, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

i'd do her --Fat Desperate Virgin 02:58, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

Un-Wiki War is Over!

All I can say is, ED imploded via MAD. |Si Plebius Dato' (Sir) Joe ang Aussie CUN|IC Kill | 12:45, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

Somehow the implosion had moved ED and its EDiots to another dimension. I think my current theory is that they used a bomb that sends them to another dimension when times get tough, and they think that event happens now. Meanwhile, Sherrod would build "Oh Internet" after sending millions to another dimension, with the exception of admins. |Si Plebius Dato' (Sir) Joe ang Aussie CUN|IC Kill | 06:32, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

It seems there is great resentment towards Degrippo. The "no-prior warning" thing was cheap. Oh well, let's watch the drama and bitching from a distance. Mattsnow (talk) 09:29, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

I agree. --Revolutionary, Anti-Bensonist, and TYATU Boss Uncyclopedian Meganew (Chat) (Care for a peek at my work?) (SUCK IT, FROGGY!) 03:03, April 22, 2011 (UTC)

Why?

The distinction between "lulz" and "humour"? If something is funny, it doesn't matter what apparent genre of humour it is. Basically, like all of my arguments do, this boils down to rules < funny. - Not particularly sincere, Sir ColinAYBCUNVFHWhoringMore Whoring at16:16, Friday 22 April 2011 -

It's not funny, though. That's the problem. There's no such thing as funny.

1234 ~ 17:46, 22 April 2011

Lulz is laughter at someone else's expense, and it is therefore the most superior form of humor (which is funnier than humour). Lulz has historical importance: It all started in 1776 with the "Declaration of Independence" which was used to troll King George and the redcoats. It continued with the "Emancipation Proclamation" which was used to troll black people by wrongly convincing them that they had rights, and lulz was ultimately the reason behind the holocaust. --EDiot 17:57, April 22, 2011 (UTC)

That response sounds ridiculously canned. The bit about the Emancipation Proclamation was clever, though. - Not particularly sincere, Sir ColinAYBCUNVFHWhoringMore Whoring at03:19, Monday 25 April 2011 -

Is it time for more Goa Tse?

ED has just rebuilt their site and they now have the actual Goa Tse on the front page. They use shock images, while we have a strict policy against them (for good reason). And unless we want "HE OPENED ME WIDE" and "MOTHERF***ING SNAKES ON A PLANE" plastered in blinky text on every single page here, we're going to have to be extra vigilant. Just my two cents. -- Sir "TheSlyPony" Invariably certifiable. 04:48, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

They cn have goatse articles on the wiki but...for the love of God...please don't put it on the front page. We don't feature shit. Or do we? -- Lollipop - CONTRIBS - WRITINGS - SHOP - Now adopting! - 05:17, 23 April 2011

Why does it matter to you what another site has on their front page? I don't like the layout of foxnews.com, but I'm not on Uncyclopedia complaining about it. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 05:19, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

Me or Sly? -- Lollipop - CONTRIBS - WRITINGS - SHOP - Now adopting! - 06:07, 23 April 2011

Try and touch me so I can scream at you not to touch me. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 07:39, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

Just pointing out that I think using the actual Goa Tse image is rather tasteless (we use the "slightly censored version"), and I simply don't want to see shock images on Uncyclopedia--our approach to Goa Tse is exactly what I like about this site. As I said, it's just my two cents. Make that one cent, I'm broke today. Actually, would you take an IOU? -- Sir "TheSlyPony" Invariably certifiable. 21:03, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

I've put goatse on the main page here no less than twice. - Not particularly sincere, Sir ColinAYBCUNVFHWhoringMore Whoring at03:11, Monday 25 April 2011 -

Btw, that's not the genuine ED site, just a fork made by the...er...more possessive users. Old habits die hard. --Scofield 16:17, April 23, 2011 (UTC)
