Very bad news: EncyclopediaDramatica is GONE

[DOOM!]

And this time for good!
Of all the recent disasters in the latest years, none have been as demoralizing as this.
You'd think they got sued, or hacked or forcibly taken down, but no, my fellow EDiots, it was Sherrod who betrayed us all in the end!

This is very serious. My core source of loathing, truth, racism, and lulz is no more.
What do we do?

Collect your torches and pitchforks, it's time to hunt Sherrod down.

Spotted this a while ago. Shame, they could have left the site up and started ohinternet separately.

[animeyay]

This is not April 1! =(

[Pascal]

We'll just have to start our OWN ED!

[Robin Sena]

Do we need that sort of thing? It's bloody time E.D. was gone.

[Eris]

And nothing of value was lost. That site did more harm to the chans than good. Because the last thing the chans need are more newfigs with old memes they found on ED.

[~*Red*~]

I'm with you on that point Eris; nothing of value was lost from ED.

[Skilero]

In memory of what was an excellent website.

 

[feifeifei]

At first I was like "wut."

Then I was like "Oh, Internets."

But seriously. Good riddance.

That image just made me LOL so hard. It made my night. xD

[Shini]

It was a stupid move, imo. We already have "OhInternet". It's called "KnowYourMeme." And guess what? KnowYourMeme has been doing this for a while now. Why not stick to the niche you have, and leave them to theirs?

[Kanjoudakai_Ira]

What? D:

 

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!

[Feferi]

It kind of bummed me out that it was gone, the site was very amusing and I go there for the laughs and whatnot. The only thing I hated is that is slows up my computer real bad. Major f*ck up but I have great memories from there... except the ones that disturbed me. x_x I don't like ohinternet, I closed it right away and I wasn't feeling a thing... at all. Nope, nothing.

[Aleyna]

I haven't been on that site in awhile. Isn't Unencyclopedia still around?

[kimokuru]

 

Hmph. That means no more NSFW pics.

Well, there's always http://eris.name/wiki/

^_^My reply too

[TheAsterisk!]

Encyclopedia Dramatica isn't gone, not just yet. Most of the original site has been restored on a dot-ch domain of the same name.

And, yes, Uncyclopedia is still up, too.

[Ranshiin]

Well, there's always http://eris.name/wiki/

You really need to update that wiki, you know. >.>

[Miss Moonlight]

Oh no, now where will I get my fix of snark and general mean-spiritedness?

oh wait ... the rest of the internet.

I'll let you guess which is which.

[X e Y U Z i O]

I miss the site so much.

[Manhattan_Project_2000]

Couldn't happen to a worse internet hate machine.

On the minus side, they had some collections of vile shock images that made Goatse look like a walk in the park. I'll miss those.
