Forum:Dramatica might be dying? Oh noes.
I guess they can't keep up server costs (again) and are relocating some of their content into a "safe-for-work" alternative version. If this is permanently their end then I propose we consider the following options:
- We take all of their quality copyrighted material (minus memes and shock cruft) and form an "Uncyclopedia Dramatica".
- We take all of their quality copyrighted material and make it look like we created it.
- We fuck their mothers.
- We fuck their copyrighted material.
EugeneKay and I also think it'd be a great idea to change the site notice to Donate to ED. Oh, and Haiti too. --EMC [TALK] 18:05 Jan 19 2010
- I believe their stuff is under a creative commons license. --Mn-z 18:31, January 19, 2010 (UTC)
- It's all copyrighted actually. I'd link their copyright page but it's blocked by the spam filter. --EMC [TALK] 18:41 Jan 19 2010
- Cool, that means site owner is legally the publisher of all content, making her personally liable for any and all copyright violations, libel, and criminal obscenity that may or may not, and in fact does, occur on that sight. --Mn-z 16:38, January 20, 2010 (UTC)

- Wow, after all these years Encyclopedia Dramatica might soon be gone forever. 18:45, Jan. 19, 2010
- Eh, fuck 'em. I'm totally on board for changing the site notice, though. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 21:04, January 19, 2010 (UTC)
- How funny, I hear people mention ED all the time here so I've been meaning to check it out of curiosity, but it's been like 3 years of procrastination. Better hurry up I guess. --S0.S0S.0S.0S0 00:16, January 20, 2010 (UTC)
I propose we carry on doing our thing and let them do theirs. Whatever it is. It's worked for me so far. --UU - natter 12:49, Jan 20
Here's a big freakin' template
Encyclopædia Dramatica is currently:
lolded
permanently this time
Donate here so you can continue to see what it looks like when your eyes melt from their sockets.
There's a new "Donate here" message each time your refresh it. It comes off as a little mean spirited, so it's perfect for the most vindictive wiki on the internet. 23:22, Jan. 19, 2010
Patiently waiting for Modus
This reminds me, his ED template is reason enough for him to be voted Uncyclopedian of the Decade. I'm going to do that right now!--<<>> 00:45, January 20, 2010 (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...
Sorry I'm late. I was busy trying to scratch that little area on my back that I can't reach. It wasn't itchy. I just wanted to see if I still couldn't reach it. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 01:03, January 20, 2010 (UTC)

- You also added "HELPME" after putting four tildes. You don't need to do that. • • • Necropaxx (T) {~} Wednesday, 04:20, Jan 20 2010
- Necropaxx, he's obviously just asking for help.
- He can't be. If he was, I'd be feeling not-guilty for not helping him as he flailed around helplessly. As it is, I do happen to be feeling not-guilty, but that's because I'm dead inside. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 05:30, January 20, 2010 (UTC)

I am flailing, but that is only because I am a beached whale.
No, I just always used the four tildes because it works OK.HELPME
