&#039;&#039;&#039;Reporting Un-Islamic Content&#039;&#039;&#039; is a [[Shock site|shock]] article located on the website [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]]. Articles discussing Islam have a template at the top of the page that reads &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;Do you feel the article (said article) goes against the Sunnah of the Prophet? We are here to help! Please click here!&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;. In spite of its peaceful wording, it tricks the viewer into clicking on one of Encyclopedia Dramatica&#039;s horrific pages, the likes of which pales in comparison to [[Offended]] or [[The Pain Series]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The article begins with a montage of normal Islamic-Related images. Scrolling down further reveals a collage of images containing graphic content and pornography, most of which relate in some way to either Islam or the Middle East. Said images listed here are ordered from the top left all the way to the bottom right:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
After scrolling down, it shows images of Israeli Prime Minister [[Wikipedia:Benjamin Netanyahu|Benjamin Netanyahu]], a sign saying &amp;quot;Welcome Zionists&amp;quot; and former U.S. president [[Wikipedia:Donald Trump|Donald Trump]]. Afterward, a text stating &amp;quot;We hope you enjoyed!&amp;quot; pops up with the [https://www.fbi.gov/contact-us/field-offices/losangeles Los Angeles FBI&#039;s phone number]; the text then tells the viewer to &amp;quot;recite shahada followed by Takbir, three times&amp;quot; to the FBI as loudly as possible. There is also a link to the [[Offended]] page at the bottom, saying &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;If you have been offended by this, please click here, DO IT FAGGOT!&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Brothers and Sisters, thank you for viewing this page for help on reporting Islamophobia and un-Islamic content. Islam is very important to us here at Encyclopædia Dramatica, and transgressions against the laws established in the Qur&#039;an by Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) as well as attacks and slights against Allah, the Messenger Muhammad (&amp;lt;abbr title=&amp;quot;Peace and blessings be upon him&amp;quot;&amp;gt;ﷺ&amp;lt;/abbr&amp;gt;), other Prophets of Islam or the Muslim Community in general are taken very seriously.&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Please refer to the gallery below for Naseeha content, before consulting our customer helpline. SMILE! It is Sunnah! Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) is great and merciful!&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;[[wikipedia:Encyclopedia Dramatica|Encyclopedia Dramatica]]&#039;&#039;&#039; is a wiki-style [[website]] with a controversial history that is widely known for its provocative humor, trolling, and offensive content. Founded in 2004, the site started as a satirical online encyclopedia that parodied [[wikipedia:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and focused on internet memes, online dramas, and other aspects of internet culture. However, over time, the site transformed into a platform for anonymous users to post and share offensive material, including hate speech, pornography, and [[shock sites|shock images]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The site&#039;s content is often directed at individuals or groups who are perceived as belonging to internet subcultures, such as furries, bronies, and other fandoms. Encyclopedia Dramatica also frequently targets people involved in online drama or controversies and has been known to publish personal information, harass individuals, and engage in cyberbullying. Throughout its existence, Encyclopedia Dramatica has been a source of controversy, with many criticizing the site for its offensive content and harmful behavior. The website has been shut down and restarted several times due to legal issues and other problems, and has been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Despite these challenges, the site continues to operate and has gained a significant following among users who appreciate its edgy humor and controversial content. The website&#039;s creators and users have defended the site&#039;s content as a form of free speech and a response to what they perceive as [[Wikipedia:Political correctness|political correctness]] and [[Wikipedia:Censorship|censorship]] in mainstream online communities. However, others argue that the site&#039;s content promotes hate speech, harassment, and cyberbullying and that it has caused harm to individuals and communities. The site&#039;s influence on internet culture and its role in online controversies have made it a subject of interest and analysis by scholars, journalists, and other observers of digital media.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The wiki [[hosts]] many infamous [[shock site|shock pages]] including [[Offended]], [[The Pain Series|Kittens, and Puppies]], and [[Reporting Un-Islamic Content]]. Many articles on this wiki contain shock images such as [[Goatse]], [[Blue Waffle]], and [[Lemon Party]] among many others, as well as numerous other gruesome images. Encyclopedia Dramatica is known for having something vulgar/disturbing on almost every page. The reason why æ is used as its mascot is that, according to the site, it&#039;s &amp;quot;confusing and mysterious like ED itself.&amp;quot; Encyclopedia Dramatica has moved domains many times during its life. It was established in December 2004 at &#039;&#039;encyclopediadramatica.com&#039;&#039; and was originally meant to document dramatic happenings on [[Wikipedia:LiveJournal|LiveJournal]], but instead quickly became associated with [[4chan]] and Anonymous. In 2011, the site moved to a safe-for-work website called &amp;quot;OhInternet&amp;quot;, which also closed the same year. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, the site moved domain extensions plenty of times from .rs to .se to .ch, and many others, usually because the owners were either being arrested or banned for different reasons.&lt;br /&gt;
==Background==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Encyclopedia-dramatica1.jpg|thumb|200px|The homepage of encyclopediadramatica.com.]]&lt;br /&gt;
Encyclopedia Dramatica is an online wiki-style website that was founded in 2004 by Sherrod DeGrippo, also known as &amp;quot;Girlvinyl.&amp;quot; The website is known for its intentionally provocative and offensive content, which parodies internet culture and memes and satirizes individuals, subcultures, and internet phenomena. The articles on the site are often written in a comedic and sarcastic tone, with a focus on vulgarity and obscenity. The website covers a wide range of topics, including video games, internet personalities, social and political issues, and other aspects of online culture. The site has several sections dedicated to trolling, flame wars, and doxing. It also features graphic images, hate speech, and shock humor, which have led to the site being blocked in some countries and universities. Additionally, Encyclopedia Dramatica has been criticized for its treatment of individuals and groups, which some view as cyberbullying and harassment. Despite this controversy, the site has a dedicated following, with many users contributing to the site&#039;s content and community. Over time, the site has faced various legal issues and has been shut down and restarted several times. In 2011, the site was temporarily shut down due to a cease-and-desist letter from the Australian Communications and Media Authority. In 2013, the site was seized by the FBI as part of an investigation into the hacking group LulzSec. The site has also been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Encyclopedia Dramatica has inspired numerous spin-offs and imitators, including the similar site &amp;quot;OhInternet,&amp;quot; which was also created by Sherrod DeGrippo. Despite the controversies surrounding the site, it continues to operate and has maintained a significant following among users who enjoy its edgy humor and controversial content.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===History===&lt;br /&gt;
Encyclopedia Dramatica was founded in 2004 by a group of internet trolls who sought to create a database of popular online memes, catchphrases, and other cultural phenomena within online communities. Initially, the website focused on tracking and documenting the activities of various internet subcultures, including [[wikipedia:Anonymous (hacker group)|Anonymous]], [[4chan]], and other imageboards. However, over time, the website evolved into a platform for offensive and derogatory content, with articles that ridiculed and mocked various individuals and groups. The site was created as a parody of Wikipedia, with users encouraged to contribute humorous and satirical content about internet culture and memes. However, the site soon developed a reputation for crude humor and controversial content, including personal attacks on individuals, and content deemed racist, sexist, and homophobic. In 2011, the site was shut down by its original creators, but it was later revived by anonymous volunteers who wanted to keep the site alive. Over the years, ED became notorious for its aggressive trolling and harassment campaigns against individuals and online communities, including 4chan, Tumblr, and social justice movements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ED&#039;s content continued to evolve, incorporating increasingly offensive and shocking material, such as graphic images, explicit sexual content, and gore. Despite its controversial content, the site gained a significant following and became a popular destination for those seeking edgy and taboo humor. In 2017, ED was acquired by the Cheezburger Network&#039;s website, &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;. The new owners attempted to clean up the site&#039;s content and make it more appealing to a wider audience, but it&#039;s not the same as the original ED we knew before. Eventually, OhInternet shut down the site and redirected the domain to a new website called Lulz.net. ED has continued to attract controversy, with critics accusing the site of promoting hate speech, cyberbullying, and other forms of harmful online behavior. However, some online communities see the site as a platform for free speech and a place to share offensive humor and satire. Despite numerous legal actions and controversies, ED continues to operate under various domains and servers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Leadership History==&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Sherrod DeGrippo (A.K.A Girlvinyl): 2004-2011&#039;&#039;&#039; - The founder of Encyclopedia Dramatica and didn&#039;t like how the site she wanted to use for live journal drama was becoming what it was. Eventually shut down the site and turned it into OhInternet. Lasted about two years before it was shut down in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Ryan Cleary: 2011&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took the site away from Girlvinyl, and helped restore the site in what would be known as &amp;quot;Operation Restoration&amp;quot;. He later got arrested for being a part of the hacker group [[wikipedia:LulzSec|Lulzsec]].&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Garrett&#039;&#039;&#039; - Was supposed to be the next leader but retired.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Brian Zaiger (A.K.A Mantequilla): 2011-2017&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Ryan after he left. Would spend years running the site, even though he didn&#039;t know how to code and was a known junkie. He was also known to take bribes for both unbanning and admin positions. It was later found out that he had been taking donations from people for years to &amp;quot;fund the site&amp;quot;, but instead was spending the money on cocaine and heroin, even though, around the tail-end of his failure of a career, he was in massive debt from a lawsuit with a famous copyright troll. He even tried to make a new ED (encyclopediadramatica.online) and tried to brand it as the real ED, but no one believed him.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Seebeen: 2017-2019&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Zaiger in 2017. Already had a bad reputation beforehand, as he would enforce arbitrary rules. Assured ED that he was an amazing tech wizard; but, when the site eventually crashed, it turned out he never had a single backup, and so he just disappeared.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Conrad Rockenhaus: 2019-2020&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Seebeen who was formerly known to be insane, and was generally hated by the rest of ED. He was in charge for a while but disappeared for a while. After he got hit by a car, he later came back for a while but then disappeared again after he went to jail.

&#039;&#039;&#039;[[wikipedia:Encyclopedia Dramatica|Encyclopedia Dramatica]]&#039;&#039;&#039; is a wiki-style [[website]] with a controversial history that is widely known for its provocative humor, trolling, and offensive content. Founded in 2004, the site started as a satirical online encyclopedia that parodied [[wikipedia:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and focused on internet memes, online dramas, and other aspects of internet culture. However, over time, the site transformed into a platform for anonymous users to post and share offensive material, including hate speech, pornography, and [[shock sites|shock images]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The site&#039;s content is often directed at individuals or groups who are perceived as belonging to internet subcultures, such as furries, bronies, and other fandoms. Encyclopedia Dramatica also frequently targets people involved in online drama or controversies and has been known to publish personal information, harass individuals, and engage in cyberbullying. Throughout its existence, Encyclopedia Dramatica has been a source of controversy, with many criticizing the site for its offensive content and harmful behavior. The website has been shut down and restarted several times due to legal issues and other problems, and has been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Despite these challenges, the site continues to operate and has gained a significant following among users who appreciate its edgy humor and controversial content. The website&#039;s creators and users have defended the site&#039;s content as a form of free speech and a response to what they perceive as [[Wikipedia:Political correctness|political correctness]] and [[Wikipedia:Censorship|censorship]] in mainstream online communities. However, others argue that the site&#039;s content promotes hate speech, harassment, and cyberbullying and that it has caused harm to individuals and communities. The site&#039;s influence on internet culture and its role in online controversies have made it a subject of interest and analysis by scholars, journalists, and other observers of digital media.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The wiki [[hosts]] many infamous [[shock site|shock pages]] including [[Offended]], [[The Pain Series|Kittens, and Puppies]], and [[Reporting Un-Islamic Content]]. Many articles on this wiki contain shock images such as [[Goatse]], [[Blue Waffle]], and [[Lemon Party]] among many others, as well as numerous other gruesome images. Encyclopedia Dramatica is known for having something vulgar/disturbing on almost every page. The reason why æ is used as its mascot is that, according to the site, it&#039;s &amp;quot;confusing and mysterious like ED itself.&amp;quot; Encyclopedia Dramatica has moved domains many times during its life. It was established in December 2004 at &#039;&#039;encyclopediadramatica.com&#039;&#039; and was originally meant to document dramatic happenings on [[Wikipedia:LiveJournal|LiveJournal]], but instead quickly became associated with [[4chan]] and Anonymous. In 2011, the site moved to a safe-for-work website called &amp;quot;OhInternet&amp;quot;, which also closed the same year. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, the site moved domain extensions plenty of times from .rs to .se to .ch, and many others, usually because the owners were either being arrested or banned for different reasons.&lt;br /&gt;

Encyclopedia Dramatica is an online wiki-style website that was founded in 2004 by Sherrod DeGrippo, also known as &amp;quot;Girlvinyl.&amp;quot; The website is known for its intentionally provocative and offensive content, which parodies internet culture and memes and satirizes individuals, subcultures, and internet phenomena. The articles on the site are often written in a comedic and sarcastic tone, with a focus on vulgarity and obscenity. The website covers a wide range of topics, including video games, internet personalities, social and political issues, and other aspects of online culture. The site has several sections dedicated to trolling, flame wars, and doxing. It also features graphic images, hate speech, and shock humor, which have led to the site being blocked in some countries and universities. Additionally, Encyclopedia Dramatica has been criticized for its treatment of individuals and groups, which some view as cyberbullying and harassment. Despite this controversy, the site has a dedicated following, with many users contributing to the site&#039;s content and community. Over time, the site has faced various legal issues and has been shut down and restarted several times. In 2011, the site was temporarily shut down due to a cease-and-desist letter from the Australian Communications and Media Authority. In 2013, the site was seized by the FBI as part of an investigation into the hacking group LulzSec. The site has also been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Encyclopedia Dramatica has inspired numerous spin-offs and imitators, including the similar site &amp;quot;OhInternet,&amp;quot; which was also created by Sherrod DeGrippo. Despite the controversies surrounding the site, it continues to operate and has maintained a significant following among users who enjoy its edgy humor and controversial content.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===History===&lt;br /&gt;
Encyclopedia Dramatica was founded in 2004 by a group of internet trolls who sought to create a database of popular online memes, catchphrases, and other cultural phenomena within online communities. Initially, the website focused on tracking and documenting the activities of various internet subcultures, including [[wikipedia:Anonymous (hacker group)|Anonymous]], [[4chan]], and other imageboards. However, over time, the website evolved into a platform for offensive and derogatory content, with articles that ridiculed and mocked various individuals and groups. The site was created as a parody of Wikipedia, with users encouraged to contribute humorous and satirical content about internet culture and memes. However, the site soon developed a reputation for crude humor and controversial content, including personal attacks on individuals, and content deemed racist, sexist, and homophobic. In 2011, the site was shut down by its original creators, but it was later revived by anonymous volunteers who wanted to keep the site alive. Over the years, ED became notorious for its aggressive trolling and harassment campaigns against individuals and online communities, including 4chan, Tumblr, and social justice movements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ED&#039;s content continued to evolve, incorporating increasingly offensive and shocking material, such as graphic images, explicit sexual content, and gore. Despite its controversial content, the site gained a significant following and became a popular destination for those seeking edgy and taboo humor. In 2017, ED was acquired by the Cheezburger Network&#039;s website, &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;. The new owners attempted to clean up the site&#039;s content and make it more appealing to a wider audience, but it&#039;s not the same as the original ED we knew before. Eventually, OhInternet shut down the site and redirected the domain to a new website called Lulz.net. ED has continued to attract controversy, with critics accusing the site of promoting hate speech, cyberbullying, and other forms of harmful online behavior. However, some online communities see the site as a platform for free speech and a place to share offensive humor and satire. Despite numerous legal actions and controversies, ED continues to operate under various domains and servers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Leadership History==&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Sherrod DeGrippo (A.K.A Girlvinyl): 2004-2011&#039;&#039;&#039; - The founder of Encyclopedia Dramatica and didn&#039;t like how the site she wanted to use for live journal drama was becoming what it was. Eventually shut down the site and turned it into OhInternet. Lasted about two years before it was shut down in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Ryan Cleary: 2011&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took the site away from Girlvinyl, and helped restore the site in what would be known as &amp;quot;Operation Restoration&amp;quot;. He later got arrested for being a part of the hacker group [[wikipedia:LulzSec|Lulzsec]].&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Garrett&#039;&#039;&#039; - Was supposed to be the next leader but retired.&lt;br /&gt;

It was later found out that he had been taking donations from people for years to &amp;quot;fund the site&amp;quot;, but instead was spending the money on cocaine and heroin, even though, around the tail-end of his failure of a career, he was in massive debt from a lawsuit with a famous copyright troll. He even tried to make a new ED (encyclopediadramatica.online) and tried to brand it as the real ED, but no one believed him.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Seebeen: 2017-2019&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Zaiger in 2017. Already had a bad reputation beforehand, as he would enforce arbitrary rules. Assured ED that he was an amazing tech wizard; but, when the site eventually crashed, it turned out he never had a single backup, and so he just disappeared.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Conrad Rockenhaus: 2019-2020&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Seebeen who was formerly known to be insane, and was generally hated by the rest of ED.

The site would eventually crash along with the forum.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;[[wikipedia:Encyclopedia Dramatica|Encyclopedia Dramatica]]&#039;&#039;&#039; is a wiki-style [[website]] with a controversial history that is widely known for its provocative humor, trolling, and offensive content. Founded in 2004, the site started as a satirical online encyclopedia that parodied [[wikipedia:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and focused on internet memes, online dramas, and other aspects of internet culture. However, over time, the site transformed into a platform for anonymous users to post and share offensive material, including hate speech, pornography, and [[shock sites|shock images]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The site&#039;s content is often directed at individuals or groups who are perceived as belonging to internet subcultures, such as furries, bronies, and other fandoms. Encyclopedia Dramatica also frequently targets people involved in online drama or controversies and has been known to publish personal information, harass individuals, and engage in cyberbullying. Throughout its existence, Encyclopedia Dramatica has been a source of controversy, with many criticizing the site for its offensive content and harmful behavior. The website has been shut down and restarted several times due to legal issues and other problems, and has been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Despite these challenges, the site continues to operate and has gained a significant following among users who appreciate its edgy humor and controversial content. The website&#039;s creators and users have defended the site&#039;s content as a form of free speech and a response to what they perceive as [[Wikipedia:Political correctness|political correctness]] and [[Wikipedia:Censorship|censorship]] in mainstream online communities. However, others argue that the site&#039;s content promotes hate speech, harassment, and cyberbullying and that it has caused harm to individuals and communities. The site&#039;s influence on internet culture and its role in online controversies have made it a subject of interest and analysis by scholars, journalists, and other observers of digital media.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The wiki [[hosts]] many infamous [[shock site|shock pages]] including [[Offended]], [[The Pain Series|Kittens, and Puppies]], and [[Reporting Un-Islamic Content]]. Many articles on this wiki contain shock images such as [[Goatse]], [[Blue Waffle]], and [[Lemon Party]] among many others, as well as numerous other gruesome images. Encyclopedia Dramatica is known for having something vulgar/disturbing on almost every page. The reason why æ is used as its mascot is that, according to the site, it&#039;s &amp;quot;confusing and mysterious like ED itself.&amp;quot; Encyclopedia Dramatica has moved domains many times during its life. It was established in December 2004 at &#039;&#039;encyclopediadramatica.com&#039;&#039; and was originally meant to document dramatic happenings on [[Wikipedia:LiveJournal|LiveJournal]], but instead quickly became associated with [[4chan]] and Anonymous. In 2011, the site moved to a safe-for-work website called &amp;quot;OhInternet&amp;quot;, which also closed the same year. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, the site moved domain extensions plenty of times from .rs to .se to .ch, and many others, usually because the owners were either being arrested or banned for different reasons.&lt;br /&gt;

Encyclopedia Dramatica is an online wiki-style website that was founded in 2004 by Sherrod DeGrippo, also known as &amp;quot;Girlvinyl.&amp;quot; The website is known for its intentionally provocative and offensive content, which parodies internet culture and memes and satirizes individuals, subcultures, and internet phenomena. The articles on the site are often written in a comedic and sarcastic tone, with a focus on vulgarity and obscenity. The website covers a wide range of topics, including video games, internet personalities, social and political issues, and other aspects of online culture. The site has several sections dedicated to trolling, flame wars, and doxing. It also features graphic images, hate speech, and shock humor, which have led to the site being blocked in some countries and universities. Additionally, Encyclopedia Dramatica has been criticized for its treatment of individuals and groups, which some view as cyberbullying and harassment. Despite this controversy, the site has a dedicated following, with many users contributing to the site&#039;s content and community. Over time, the site has faced various legal issues and has been shut down and restarted several times. In 2011, the site was temporarily shut down due to a cease-and-desist letter from the Australian Communications and Media Authority. In 2013, the site was seized by the FBI as part of an investigation into the hacking group LulzSec. The site has also been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Encyclopedia Dramatica has inspired numerous spin-offs and imitators, including the similar site &amp;quot;OhInternet,&amp;quot; which was also created by Sherrod DeGrippo. Despite the controversies surrounding the site, it continues to operate and has maintained a significant following among users who enjoy its edgy humor and controversial content.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===History===&lt;br /&gt;
Encyclopedia Dramatica was founded in 2004 by a group of internet trolls who sought to create a database of popular online memes, catchphrases, and other cultural phenomena within online communities. Initially, the website focused on tracking and documenting the activities of various internet subcultures, including [[wikipedia:Anonymous (hacker group)|Anonymous]], [[4chan]], and other imageboards. However, over time, the website evolved into a platform for offensive and derogatory content, with articles that ridiculed and mocked various individuals and groups. The site was created as a parody of Wikipedia, with users encouraged to contribute humorous and satirical content about internet culture and memes. However, the site soon developed a reputation for crude humor and controversial content, including personal attacks on individuals, and content deemed racist, sexist, and homophobic. In 2011, the site was shut down by its original creators, but it was later revived by anonymous volunteers who wanted to keep the site alive. Over the years, ED became notorious for its aggressive trolling and harassment campaigns against individuals and online communities, including 4chan, Tumblr, and social justice movements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ED&#039;s content continued to evolve, incorporating increasingly offensive and shocking material, such as graphic images, explicit sexual content, and gore. Despite its controversial content, the site gained a significant following and became a popular destination for those seeking edgy and taboo humor. In 2017, ED was acquired by the Cheezburger Network&#039;s website, &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;. The new owners attempted to clean up the site&#039;s content and make it more appealing to a wider audience, but it&#039;s not the same as the original ED we knew before. Eventually, OhInternet shut down the site and redirected the domain to a new website called Lulz.net. ED has continued to attract controversy, with critics accusing the site of promoting hate speech, cyberbullying, and other forms of harmful online behavior. However, some online communities see the site as a platform for free speech and a place to share offensive humor and satire. Despite numerous legal actions and controversies, ED continues to operate under various domains and servers.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;[[wikipedia:Encyclopedia Dramatica|Encyclopedia Dramatica]]&#039;&#039;&#039; is a wiki-style [[website]] with a controversial history that is widely known for its provocative humor, trolling, and offensive content. Founded in 2004, the site started as a satirical online encyclopedia that parodied [[wikipedia:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and focused on internet memes, online dramas, and other aspects of internet culture. However, over time, the site transformed into a platform for anonymous users to post and share offensive material, including hate speech, pornography, and [[shock sites|shock images]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The site&#039;s content is often directed at individuals or groups who are perceived as belonging to internet subcultures, such as furries, bronies, and other fandoms. Encyclopedia Dramatica also frequently targets people involved in online drama or controversies and has been known to publish personal information, harass individuals, and engage in cyberbullying. Throughout its existence, Encyclopedia Dramatica has been a source of controversy, with many criticizing the site for its offensive content and harmful behavior. The website has been shut down and restarted several times due to legal issues and other problems, and has been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Despite these challenges, the site continues to operate and has gained a significant following among users who appreciate its edgy humor and controversial content. The website&#039;s creators and users have defended the site&#039;s content as a form of free speech and a response to what they perceive as [[Wikipedia:Political correctness|political correctness]] and [[Wikipedia:Censorship|censorship]] in mainstream online communities. However, others argue that the site&#039;s content promotes hate speech, harassment, and cyberbullying and that it has caused harm to individuals and communities. The site&#039;s influence on internet culture and its role in online controversies have made it a subject of interest and analysis by scholars, journalists, and other observers of digital media.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The wiki [[hosts]] many infamous [[shock site|shock pages]] including [[Offended]], [[The Pain Series|Kittens, and Puppies]], and [[Reporting Un-Islamic Content]]. Many articles on this wiki contain shock images such as [[Goatse]], [[Blue Waffle]], and [[Lemon Party]] among many others, as well as numerous other gruesome images. Encyclopedia Dramatica is known for having something vulgar/disturbing on almost every page. The reason why æ is used as its mascot is that, according to the site, it&#039;s &amp;quot;confusing and mysterious like ED itself.&amp;quot; Encyclopedia Dramatica has moved domains many times during its life. It was established in December 2004 at &#039;&#039;encyclopediadramatica.com&#039;&#039; and was originally meant to document dramatic happenings on [[Wikipedia:LiveJournal|LiveJournal]], but instead quickly became associated with [[4chan]] and Anonymous. In 2011, the site moved to a safe-for-work website called &amp;quot;OhInternet&amp;quot;, which also closed the same year. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, the site moved domain extensions plenty of times from .rs to .se to .ch, and many others, usually because the owners were either being arrested or banned for different reasons.&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Encyclopedia-dramatica1.jpg|thumb|200px|The homepage of encyclopediadramatica.com.]]&lt;br /&gt;
Encyclopedia Dramatica is an online wiki-style website that was founded in 2004 by Sherrod DeGrippo, also known as &amp;quot;Girlvinyl.&amp;quot; The website is known for its intentionally provocative and offensive content, which parodies internet culture and memes and satirizes individuals, subcultures, and internet phenomena. The articles on the site are often written in a comedic and sarcastic tone, with a focus on vulgarity and obscenity. The website covers a wide range of topics, including video games, internet personalities, social and political issues, and other aspects of online culture. The site has several sections dedicated to trolling, flame wars, and doxing. It also features graphic images, hate speech, and shock humor, which have led to the site being blocked in some countries and universities. Additionally, Encyclopedia Dramatica has been criticized for its treatment of individuals and groups, which some view as cyberbullying and harassment. Despite this controversy, the site has a dedicated following, with many users contributing to the site&#039;s content and community. Over time, the site has faced various legal issues and has been shut down and restarted several times. In 2011, the site was temporarily shut down due to a cease-and-desist letter from the Australian Communications and Media Authority. In 2013, the site was seized by the FBI as part of an investigation into the hacking group LulzSec. The site has also been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Encyclopedia Dramatica has inspired numerous spin-offs and imitators, including the similar site &amp;quot;OhInternet,&amp;quot; which was also created by Sherrod DeGrippo. Despite the controversies surrounding the site, it continues to operate and has maintained a significant following among users who enjoy its edgy humor and controversial content.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===History===&lt;br /&gt;
Encyclopedia Dramatica was founded in 2004 by a group of internet trolls who sought to create a database of popular online memes, catchphrases, and other cultural phenomena within online communities. Initially, the website focused on tracking and documenting the activities of various internet subcultures, including [[wikipedia:Anonymous (hacker group)|Anonymous]], [[4chan]], and other imageboards. However, over time, the website evolved into a platform for offensive and derogatory content, with articles that ridiculed and mocked various individuals and groups. The site was created as a parody of Wikipedia, with users encouraged to contribute humorous and satirical content about internet culture and memes. However, the site soon developed a reputation for crude humor and controversial content, including personal attacks on individuals, and content deemed racist, sexist, and homophobic. In 2011, the site was shut down by its original creators, but it was later revived by anonymous volunteers who wanted to keep the site alive. Over the years, ED became notorious for its aggressive trolling and harassment campaigns against individuals and online communities, including 4chan, Tumblr, and social justice movements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ED&#039;s content continued to evolve, incorporating increasingly offensive and shocking material, such as graphic images, explicit sexual content, and gore. Despite its controversial content, the site gained a significant following and became a popular destination for those seeking edgy and taboo humor. In 2017, ED was acquired by the Cheezburger Network&#039;s website, &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;. The new owners attempted to clean up the site&#039;s content and make it more appealing to a wider audience, but it&#039;s not the same as the original ED we knew before. Eventually, OhInternet shut down the site and redirected the domain to a new website called Lulz.net. ED has continued to attract controversy, with critics accusing the site of promoting hate speech, cyberbullying, and other forms of harmful online behavior. However, some online communities see the site as a platform for free speech and a place to share offensive humor and satire. Despite numerous legal actions and controversies, ED continues to operate under various domains and servers.&lt;br /&gt;

In 2017, ED was acquired by the Cheezburger Network&#039;s website, &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;. The new owners attempted to clean up the site&#039;s content and make it more appealing to a wider audience, but it&#039;s not the same as the original ED we knew before. Eventually, OhInternet shut down the site and redirected the domain to a new website called Lulz.net. ED has continued to attract controversy, with critics accusing the site of promoting hate speech, cyberbullying, and other forms of harmful online behavior. However, some online communities see the site as a platform for free speech and a place to share offensive humor and satire. Despite numerous legal actions and controversies, ED continues to operate under various domains and servers.&lt;br /&gt;

Eventually shut down the site and turned it into OhInternet. Lasted about two years before it was shut down in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Ryan Cleary: 2011&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took the site away from Girlvinyl, and helped restore the site in what would be known as &amp;quot;Operation Restoration&amp;quot;. He later got arrested for being a part of the hacker group [[wikipedia:LulzSec|Lulzsec]].&lt;br /&gt;

It was later found out that he had been taking donations from people for years to &amp;quot;fund the site&amp;quot;, but instead was spending the money on cocaine and heroin, even though, around the tail-end of his failure of a career, he was in massive debt from a lawsuit with a famous copyright troll. He even tried to make a new ED (encyclopediadramatica.online) and tried to brand it as the real ED, but no one believed him.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Seebeen: 2017-2019&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Zaiger in 2017. Already had a bad reputation beforehand, as he would enforce arbitrary rules.

The site would eventually crash along with the forum.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Jacob Stellmach (A.K.A Ædiot): 2020&#039;&#039;&#039; - Restored the site after it crashed. Crashed multiple times after he restored it and was not able to keep it up for more than a couple of weeks at a time. Got sued and tried to crowdfund lawsuit money. Later tried to sell ED to his dark web friends and was quickly booked. He also talks to an imaginary 6-year-old girl and grooms a 16-year-old boy to be his husband.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Jose Antonio Cossio, JR. (A.K.A Umkemesik): 2020-2023&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took away the site from Ædiot after the stuff got leaked, and created a new ED, which took him 12 hours compared to the 3-4 months it took Ædiot.

&#039;&#039;&#039;[[wikipedia:Encyclopedia Dramatica|Encyclopedia Dramatica]]&#039;&#039;&#039; is a wiki-style [[website]] with a controversial history that is widely known for its provocative humor, trolling, and offensive content. Founded in 2004, the site started as a satirical online encyclopedia that parodied [[wikipedia:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and focused on internet memes, online dramas, and other aspects of internet culture. However, over time, the site transformed into a platform for anonymous users to post and share offensive material, including hate speech, pornography, and [[shock sites|shock images]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The site&#039;s content is often directed at individuals or groups who are perceived as belonging to internet subcultures, such as furries, bronies, and other fandoms. Encyclopedia Dramatica also frequently targets people involved in online drama or controversies and has been known to publish personal information, harass individuals, and engage in cyberbullying. Throughout its existence, Encyclopedia Dramatica has been a source of controversy, with many criticizing the site for its offensive content and harmful behavior. The website has been shut down and restarted several times due to legal issues and other problems, and has been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Despite these challenges, the site continues to operate and has gained a significant following among users who appreciate its edgy humor and controversial content. The website&#039;s creators and users have defended the site&#039;s content as a form of free speech and a response to what they perceive as [[Wikipedia:Political correctness|political correctness]] and [[Wikipedia:Censorship|censorship]] in mainstream online communities. However, others argue that the site&#039;s content promotes hate speech, harassment, and cyberbullying and that it has caused harm to individuals and communities. The site&#039;s influence on internet culture and its role in online controversies have made it a subject of interest and analysis by scholars, journalists, and other observers of digital media.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The wiki [[hosts]] many infamous [[shock site|shock pages]] including [[Offended]], [[The Pain Series|Kittens, and Puppies]], and [[Reporting Un-Islamic Content]]. Many articles on this wiki contain shock images such as [[Goatse]], [[Blue Waffle]], and [[Lemon Party]] among many others, as well as numerous other gruesome images. Encyclopedia Dramatica is known for having something vulgar/disturbing on almost every page. The reason why æ is used as its mascot is that, according to the site, it&#039;s &amp;quot;confusing and mysterious like ED itself.&amp;quot; Encyclopedia Dramatica has moved domains many times during its life. It was established in December 2004 at &#039;&#039;encyclopediadramatica.com&#039;&#039; and was originally meant to document dramatic happenings on [[Wikipedia:LiveJournal|LiveJournal]], but instead quickly became associated with [[4chan]] and Anonymous. In 2011, the site moved to a safe-for-work website called &amp;quot;OhInternet&amp;quot;, which also closed the same year. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, the site moved domain extensions plenty of times from .rs to .se to .ch, and many others, usually because the owners were either being arrested or banned for different reasons.&lt;br /&gt;

Encyclopedia Dramatica is an online wiki-style website that was founded in 2004 by Sherrod DeGrippo, also known as &amp;quot;Girlvinyl.&amp;quot; The website is known for its intentionally provocative and offensive content, which parodies internet culture and memes and satirizes individuals, subcultures, and internet phenomena. The articles on the site are often written in a comedic and sarcastic tone, with a focus on vulgarity and obscenity. The website covers a wide range of topics, including video games, internet personalities, social and political issues, and other aspects of online culture. The site has several sections dedicated to trolling, flame wars, and doxing. It also features graphic images, hate speech, and shock humor, which have led to the site being blocked in some countries and universities. Additionally, Encyclopedia Dramatica has been criticized for its treatment of individuals and groups, which some view as cyberbullying and harassment. Despite this controversy, the site has a dedicated following, with many users contributing to the site&#039;s content and community. Over time, the site has faced various legal issues and has been shut down and restarted several times. In 2011, the site was temporarily shut down due to a cease-and-desist letter from the Australian Communications and Media Authority. In 2013, the site was seized by the FBI as part of an investigation into the hacking group LulzSec. The site has also been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Encyclopedia Dramatica has inspired numerous spin-offs and imitators, including the similar site &amp;quot;OhInternet,&amp;quot; which was also created by Sherrod DeGrippo. Despite the controversies surrounding the site, it continues to operate and has maintained a significant following among users who enjoy its edgy humor and controversial content.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===History===&lt;br /&gt;
Encyclopedia Dramatica was founded in 2004 by a group of internet trolls who sought to create a database of popular online memes, catchphrases, and other cultural phenomena within online communities. Initially, the website focused on tracking and documenting the activities of various internet subcultures, including [[wikipedia:Anonymous (hacker group)|Anonymous]], [[4chan]], and other imageboards. However, over time, the website evolved into a platform for offensive and derogatory content, with articles that ridiculed and mocked various individuals and groups. The site was created as a parody of Wikipedia, with users encouraged to contribute humorous and satirical content about internet culture and memes. However, the site soon developed a reputation for crude humor and controversial content, including personal attacks on individuals, and content deemed racist, sexist, and homophobic. In 2011, the site was shut down by its original creators, but it was later revived by anonymous volunteers who wanted to keep the site alive. Over the years, ED became notorious for its aggressive trolling and harassment campaigns against individuals and online communities, including 4chan, Tumblr, and social justice movements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ED&#039;s content continued to evolve, incorporating increasingly offensive and shocking material, such as graphic images, explicit sexual content, and gore. Despite its controversial content, the site gained a significant following and became a popular destination for those seeking edgy and taboo humor. In 2017, ED was acquired by the Cheezburger Network&#039;s website, &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;. The new owners attempted to clean up the site&#039;s content and make it more appealing to a wider audience, but it&#039;s not the same as the original ED we knew before. Eventually, OhInternet shut down the site and redirected the domain to a new website called Lulz.net. ED has continued to attract controversy, with critics accusing the site of promoting hate speech, cyberbullying, and other forms of harmful online behavior.

However, over time, the website evolved into a platform for offensive and derogatory content, with articles that ridiculed and mocked various individuals and groups. The site was created as a parody of Wikipedia, with users encouraged to contribute humorous and satirical content about internet culture and memes. However, the site soon developed a reputation for crude humor and controversial content, including personal attacks on individuals, and content deemed racist, sexist, and homophobic. In 2011, the site was shut down by its original creators, but it was later revived by anonymous volunteers who wanted to keep the site alive. Over the years, ED became notorious for its aggressive trolling and harassment campaigns against individuals and online communities, including 4chan, Tumblr, and social justice movements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ED&#039;s content continued to evolve, incorporating increasingly offensive and shocking material, such as graphic images, explicit sexual content, and gore. Despite its controversial content, the site gained a significant following and became a popular destination for those seeking edgy and taboo humor. In 2017, ED was acquired by the Cheezburger Network&#039;s website, &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;. The new owners attempted to clean up the site&#039;s content and make it more appealing to a wider audience, but it&#039;s not the same as the original ED we knew before. Eventually, OhInternet shut down the site and redirected the domain to a new website called Lulz.net. ED has continued to attract controversy, with critics accusing the site of promoting hate speech, cyberbullying, and other forms of harmful online behavior. However, some online communities see the site as a platform for free speech and a place to share offensive humor and satire. Despite numerous legal actions and controversies, ED continues to operate under various domains and servers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Leadership History==&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Sherrod DeGrippo (A.K.A Girlvinyl): 2004-2011&#039;&#039;&#039; - The founder of Encyclopedia Dramatica and didn&#039;t like how the site she wanted to use for live journal drama was becoming what it was. Eventually shut down the site and turned it into OhInternet. Lasted about two years before it was shut down in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Ryan Cleary: 2011&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took the site away from Girlvinyl, and helped restore the site in what would be known as &amp;quot;Operation Restoration&amp;quot;. He later got arrested for being a part of the hacker group [[wikipedia:LulzSec|Lulzsec]].&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Garrett&#039;&#039;&#039; - Was supposed to be the next leader but retired.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Brian Zaiger (A.K.A Mantequilla): 2011-2017&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Ryan after he left. Would spend years running the site, even though he didn&#039;t know how to code and was a known junkie. He was also known to take bribes for both unbanning and admin positions. It was later found out that he had been taking donations from people for years to &amp;quot;fund the site&amp;quot;, but instead was spending the money on cocaine and heroin, even though, around the tail-end of his failure of a career, he was in massive debt from a lawsuit with a famous copyright troll. He even tried to make a new ED (encyclopediadramatica.online) and tried to brand it as the real ED, but no one believed him.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Seebeen: 2017-2019&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Zaiger in 2017. Already had a bad reputation beforehand, as he would enforce arbitrary rules. Assured ED that he was an amazing tech wizard; but, when the site eventually crashed, it turned out he never had a single backup, and so he just disappeared.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Conrad Rockenhaus: 2019-2020&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Seebeen who was formerly known to be insane, and was generally hated by the rest of ED. He was in charge for a while but disappeared for a while. After he got hit by a car, he later came back for a while but then disappeared again after he went to jail. The site would eventually crash along with the forum.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Jacob Stellmach (A.K.A Ædiot): 2020&#039;&#039;&#039; - Restored the site after it crashed. Crashed multiple times after he restored it and was not able to keep it up for more than a couple of weeks at a time. Got sued and tried to crowdfund lawsuit money. Later tried to sell ED to his dark web friends and was quickly booked. He also talks to an imaginary 6-year-old girl and grooms a 16-year-old boy to be his husband.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Jose Antonio Cossio, JR. (A.K.A Umkemesik): 2020-2023&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took away the site from Ædiot after the stuff got leaked, and created a new ED, which took him 12 hours compared to the 3-4 months it took Ædiot. He was later exposed for being a pedophile&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;web.archive.org/web/20230117163445/encyclopediadramatica.online/2023&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Kaizen: 2023-2024&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Umkemesik after he was exposed for being a pedophile. He eventually was not able to pay for the domain of the site, resulting in the death of encyclopediadramatica.online.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Encyclopedia Dramatica&#039;&#039;&#039; is a wiki-style [[website]] with a controversial history that is widely known for its provocative humor, trolling, and offensive content. Founded in 2004, the site started as a satirical online encyclopedia that parodied [[wikipedia:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and focused on internet memes, online dramas, and other aspects of internet culture. However, over time, the site transformed into a platform for anonymous users to post and share offensive material, including hate speech, pornography, and [[shock sites|shock images]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The site&#039;s content is often directed at individuals or groups who are perceived as belonging to internet subcultures, such as furries, bronies, and other fandoms. Encyclopedia Dramatica also frequently targets people involved in online drama or controversies and has been known to publish personal information, harass individuals, and engage in cyberbullying. Throughout its existence, &#039;&#039;Encyclopedia Dramatica&#039;&#039; has been a source of controversy, with many criticizing the site for its offensive content and harmful behavior. The website has been shut down and restarted several times due to legal issues and other problems, and has been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Despite these challenges, the site continues to operate and has gained a significant following among users who appreciate its edgy humor and controversial content. The website&#039;s creators and users have defended the site&#039;s content as a form of free speech and a response to what they perceive as [[Wikipedia:Political correctness|political correctness]] and [[Wikipedia:Censorship|censorship]] in mainstream online communities. However, others argue that the site&#039;s content promotes hate speech, harassment, and cyberbullying and that it has caused harm to individuals and communities. The site&#039;s influence on internet culture and its role in online controversies have made it a subject of interest and analysis by scholars, journalists, and other observers of digital media.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The wiki [[hosts]] many infamous [[shock site|shock pages]] including [[Offended]], [[The Pain Series|Kittens, and Puppies]], and [[Reporting Un-Islamic Content]]. Many articles on this wiki contain shock images such as [[Goatse]], [[Blue Waffle]], and [[Lemon Party]] among many others, as well as numerous other gruesome images. Encyclopedia Dramatica is known for having something vulgar/disturbing on almost every page. The reason why æ is used as its mascot is that, according to the site, it&#039;s &amp;quot;confusing and mysterious like ED itself.&amp;quot; Encyclopedia Dramatica has moved domains many times during its life. It was established in December 2004 at &#039;&#039;encyclopediadramatica.com&#039;&#039; and was originally meant to document dramatic happenings on [[Wikipedia:LiveJournal|LiveJournal]], but instead quickly became associated with [[4chan]] and Anonymous. In 2011, the site moved to a safe-for-work website called &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;, which also closed the same year. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, the site moved domain extensions plenty of times from .rs to .se to .ch, and many others, usually because the owners were either being arrested or banned for different reasons.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;Encyclopedia Dramatica&#039;&#039; is an online wiki-style website that was founded in 2004 by Sherrod DeGrippo, also known as &amp;quot;Girlvinyl.&amp;quot; The website is known for its intentionally provocative and offensive content, which parodies internet culture and memes and satirizes individuals, subcultures, and internet phenomena. The articles on the site are often written in a comedic and sarcastic tone, with a focus on vulgarity and obscenity. The website covers a wide range of topics, including video games, internet personalities, social and political issues, and other aspects of online culture. The site has several sections dedicated to trolling, flame wars, and doxing. It also features graphic images, hate speech, and shock humor, which have led to the site being blocked in some countries and universities. Additionally, &#039;&#039;Encyclopedia Dramatica&#039;&#039; has been criticized for its treatment of individuals and groups, which some view as cyberbullying and harassment. Despite this controversy, the site has a dedicated following, with many users contributing to the site&#039;s content and community. Over time, the site has faced various legal issues and has been shut down and restarted several times. In 2011, the site was temporarily shut down due to a cease-and-desist letter from the Australian Communications and Media Authority. In 2013, the site was seized by the FBI as part of an investigation into the hacking group LulzSec. The site has also been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Encyclopedia Dramatica has inspired numerous spin-offs and imitators, including the similar site &amp;quot;OhInternet,&amp;quot; which was also created by Sherrod DeGrippo. Despite the controversies surrounding the site, it continues to operate and has maintained a significant following among users who enjoy its edgy humor and controversial content.&lt;br /&gt;

In 2013, the site was seized by the FBI as part of an investigation into the hacking group LulzSec. The site has also been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Encyclopedia Dramatica has inspired numerous spin-offs and imitators, including the similar site &amp;quot;OhInternet,&amp;quot; which was also created by Sherrod DeGrippo. Despite the controversies surrounding the site, it continues to operate and has maintained a significant following among users who enjoy its edgy humor and controversial content.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===History===&lt;br /&gt;
Encyclopedia Dramatica was founded in 2004 by a group of internet trolls who sought to create a database of popular online memes, catchphrases, and other cultural phenomena within online communities. Initially, the website focused on tracking and documenting the activities of various internet subcultures, including [[wikipedia:Anonymous (hacker group)|Anonymous]], [[4chan]], and other imageboards. However, over time, the website evolved into a platform for offensive and derogatory content, with articles that ridiculed and mocked various individuals and groups. The site was created as a parody of Wikipedia, with users encouraged to contribute humorous and satirical content about internet culture and memes. However, the site soon developed a reputation for crude humor and controversial content, including personal attacks on individuals, and content deemed racist, sexist, and homophobic. In 2011, the site was shut down by its original creators, but it was later revived by anonymous volunteers who wanted to keep the site alive. Over the years, ED became notorious for its aggressive trolling and harassment campaigns against individuals and online communities, including 4chan, Tumblr, and social justice movements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ED&#039;s content continued to evolve, incorporating increasingly offensive and shocking material, such as graphic images, explicit sexual content, and gore. Despite its controversial content, the site gained a significant following and became a popular destination for those seeking edgy and taboo humor. In 2017, ED was acquired by the Cheezburger Network&#039;s website, &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;. The new owners attempted to clean up the site&#039;s content and make it more appealing to a wider audience, but it&#039;s not the same as the original ED we knew before. Eventually, OhInternet shut down the site and redirected the domain to a new website called Lulz.net. ED has continued to attract controversy, with critics accusing the site of promoting hate speech, cyberbullying, and other forms of harmful online behavior. However, some online communities see the site as a platform for free speech and a place to share offensive humor and satire. Despite numerous legal actions and controversies, ED continues to operate under various domains and servers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Leadership History==&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Sherrod DeGrippo (A.K.A Girlvinyl): 2004-2011&#039;&#039;&#039; - The founder of Encyclopedia Dramatica and didn&#039;t like how the site she wanted to use for live journal drama was becoming what it was. Eventually shut down the site and turned it into OhInternet. Lasted about two years before it was shut down in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Ryan Cleary: 2011&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took the site away from Girlvinyl, and helped restore the site in what would be known as &amp;quot;Operation Restoration&amp;quot;. He later got arrested for being a part of the hacker group [[wikipedia:LulzSec|Lulzsec]].&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Garrett&#039;&#039;&#039; - Was supposed to be the next leader but retired.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Brian Zaiger (A.K.A Mantequilla): 2011-2017&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Ryan after he left. Would spend years running the site, even though he didn&#039;t know how to code and was a known junkie. He was also known to take bribes for both unbanning and admin positions. It was later found out that he had been taking donations from people for years to &amp;quot;fund the site&amp;quot;, but instead was spending the money on cocaine and heroin, even though, around the tail-end of his failure of a career, he was in massive debt from a lawsuit with a famous copyright troll. He even tried to make a new ED (encyclopediadramatica.online) and tried to brand it as the real ED, but no one believed him.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Seebeen: 2017-2019&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Zaiger in 2017. Already had a bad reputation beforehand, as he would enforce arbitrary rules. Assured ED that he was an amazing tech wizard; but, when the site eventually crashed, it turned out he never had a single backup, and so he just disappeared.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Conrad Rockenhaus: 2019-2020&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Seebeen who was formerly known to be insane, and was generally hated by the rest of ED. He was in charge for a while but disappeared for a while. After he got hit by a car, he later came back for a while but then disappeared again after he went to jail. The site would eventually crash along with the forum.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Jacob Stellmach (A.K.A Ædiot): 2020&#039;&#039;&#039; - Restored the site after it crashed. Crashed multiple times after he restored it and was not able to keep it up for more than a couple of weeks at a time. Got sued and tried to crowdfund lawsuit money. Later tried to sell ED to his dark web friends and was quickly booked. He also talks to an imaginary 6-year-old girl and grooms a 16-year-old boy to be his husband.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Jose Antonio Cossio, JR. (A.K.A Umkemesik): 2020-2023&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took away the site from Ædiot after the stuff got leaked, and created a new ED, which took him 12 hours compared to the 3-4 months it took Ædiot. He was later exposed for being a pedophile&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;web.archive.org/web/20230117163445/encyclopediadramatica.online/2023&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Kaizen: 2023-2024&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Umkemesik after he was exposed for being a pedophile. He eventually was not able to pay for the domain of the site, resulting in the death of encyclopediadramatica.online.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;MarioMario456: 2024-present&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;web.archive.org/web/20240515014518/encyclopediadramatica.top&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Kaizen after he could no longer pay for the domain and created a new ED.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Encyclopedia Dramatica&#039;&#039;&#039; is a wiki-style [[website]] with a controversial history that is widely known for its provocative humor, trolling, and offensive content. Founded in 2004, the site started as a satirical online encyclopedia that parodied [[wikipedia:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and focused on internet memes, online dramas, and other aspects of internet culture. However, over time, the site transformed into a platform for anonymous users to post and share offensive material, including hate speech, pornography, and [[shock sites|shock images]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The site&#039;s content is often directed at individuals or groups who are perceived as belonging to internet subcultures, such as furries, bronies, and other fandoms. Encyclopedia Dramatica also frequently targets people involved in online drama or controversies and has been known to publish personal information, harass individuals, and engage in cyberbullying. Throughout its existence, &#039;&#039;Encyclopedia Dramatica&#039;&#039; has been a source of controversy, with many criticizing the site for its offensive content and harmful behavior. The website has been shut down and restarted several times due to legal issues and other problems, and has been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Despite these challenges, the site continues to operate and has gained a significant following among users who appreciate its edgy humor and controversial content. The website&#039;s creators and users have defended the site&#039;s content as a form of free speech and a response to what they perceive as [[Wikipedia:Political correctness|political correctness]] and [[Wikipedia:Censorship|censorship]] in mainstream online communities. However, others argue that the site&#039;s content promotes hate speech, harassment, and cyberbullying and that it has caused harm to individuals and communities. The site&#039;s influence on internet culture and its role in online controversies have made it a subject of interest and analysis by scholars, journalists, and other observers of digital media.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The wiki [[hosts]] many infamous [[shock site|shock pages]] including [[Offended]], [[The Pain Series|Kittens, and Puppies]], and [[Reporting Un-Islamic Content]]. Many articles on this wiki contain shock images such as [[Goatse]], [[Blue Waffle]], and [[Lemon Party]] among many others, as well as numerous other gruesome images. Encyclopedia Dramatica is known for having something vulgar/disturbing on almost every page. The reason why æ is used as its mascot is that, according to the site, it&#039;s &amp;quot;confusing and mysterious like ED itself.&amp;quot; Encyclopedia Dramatica has moved domains many times during its life. It was established in December 2004 at &#039;&#039;encyclopediadramatica.com&#039;&#039; and was originally meant to document dramatic happenings on [[Wikipedia:LiveJournal|LiveJournal]], but instead quickly became associated with [[4chan]] and Anonymous. In 2011, the site moved to a safe-for-work website called &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;, which also closed the same year. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Additionally, &#039;&#039;Encyclopedia Dramatica&#039;&#039; has been criticized for its treatment of individuals and groups, which some view as cyberbullying and harassment. Despite this controversy, the site has a dedicated following, with many users contributing to the site&#039;s content and community. Over time, the site has faced various legal issues and has been shut down and restarted several times. In 2011, the site was temporarily shut down due to a cease-and-desist letter from the Australian Communications and Media Authority. In 2013, the site was seized by the FBI as part of an investigation into the hacking group LulzSec. The site has also been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Encyclopedia Dramatica has inspired numerous spin-offs and imitators, including the similar site &amp;quot;OhInternet,&amp;quot; which was also created by Sherrod DeGrippo. Despite the controversies surrounding the site, it continues to operate and has maintained a significant following among users who enjoy its edgy humor and controversial content.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===History===&lt;br /&gt;
Encyclopedia Dramatica was founded in 2004 by a group of internet trolls who sought to create a database of popular online memes, catchphrases, and other cultural phenomena within online communities. Initially, the website focused on tracking and documenting the activities of various internet subcultures, including [[wikipedia:Anonymous (hacker group)|Anonymous]], [[4chan]], and other imageboards. However, over time, the website evolved into a platform for offensive and derogatory content, with articles that ridiculed and mocked various individuals and groups. The site was created as a parody of Wikipedia, with users encouraged to contribute humorous and satirical content about internet culture and memes. However, the site soon developed a reputation for crude humor and controversial content, including personal attacks on individuals, and content deemed racist, sexist, and homophobic. In 2011, the site was shut down by its original creators, but it was later revived by anonymous volunteers who wanted to keep the site alive. Over the years, ED became notorious for its aggressive trolling and harassment campaigns against individuals and online communities, including 4chan, Tumblr, and social justice movements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ED&#039;s content continued to evolve, incorporating increasingly offensive and shocking material, such as graphic images, explicit sexual content, and gore. Despite its controversial content, the site gained a significant following and became a popular destination for those seeking edgy and taboo humor. In 2017, ED was acquired by the Cheezburger Network&#039;s website, &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;. The new owners attempted to clean up the site&#039;s content and make it more appealing to a wider audience, but it&#039;s not the same as the original ED we knew before. Eventually, OhInternet shut down the site and redirected the domain to a new website called Lulz.net. ED has continued to attract controversy, with critics accusing the site of promoting hate speech, cyberbullying, and other forms of harmful online behavior. However, some online communities see the site as a platform for free speech and a place to share offensive humor and satire. Despite numerous legal actions and controversies, ED continues to operate under various domains and servers.&lt;br /&gt;

==Leadership History==&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Sherrod DeGrippo (A.K.A Girlvinyl): 2004-2011&#039;&#039;&#039; - The founder of Encyclopedia Dramatica and didn&#039;t like how the site she wanted to use for live journal drama was becoming what it was. Eventually shut down the site and turned it into OhInternet. Lasted about two years before it was shut down in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Ryan Cleary: 2011&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took the site away from Girlvinyl, and helped restore the site in what would be known as &amp;quot;Operation Restoration&amp;quot;. He later got arrested for being a part of the hacker group [[wikipedia:LulzSec|Lulzsec]].&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Garrett&#039;&#039;&#039; - Was supposed to be the next leader but retired.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Brian Zaiger (A.K.A Mantequilla): 2011-2017&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Ryan after he left. Would spend years running the site, even though he didn&#039;t know how to code and was a known junkie. He was also known to take bribes for both unbanning and admin positions. It was later found out that he had been taking donations from people for years to &amp;quot;fund the site&amp;quot;, but instead was spending the money on cocaine and heroin, even though, around the tail-end of his failure of a career, he was in massive debt from a lawsuit with a famous copyright troll. He even tried to make a new ED (encyclopediadramatica.online) and tried to brand it as the real ED, but no one believed him.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Seebeen: 2017-2019&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Zaiger in 2017. Already had a bad reputation beforehand, as he would enforce arbitrary rules. Assured ED that he was an amazing tech wizard; but, when the site eventually crashed, it turned out he never had a single backup, and so he just disappeared.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Conrad Rockenhaus: 2019-2020&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Seebeen who was formerly known to be insane, and was generally hated by the rest of ED. He was in charge for a while but disappeared for a while. After he got hit by a car, he later came back for a while but then disappeared again after he went to jail. The site would eventually crash along with the forum.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Jacob Stellmach (A.K.A Ædiot): 2020&#039;&#039;&#039; - Restored the site after it crashed. Crashed multiple times after he restored it and was not able to keep it up for more than a couple of weeks at a time. Got sued and tried to crowdfund lawsuit money. Later tried to sell ED to his dark web friends and was quickly booked. He also talks to an imaginary 6-year-old girl and grooms a 16-year-old boy to be his husband.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Jose Antonio Cossio, JR. (A.K.A Umkemesik): 2020-2023&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took away the site from Ædiot after the stuff got leaked, and created a new ED, which took him 12 hours compared to the 3-4 months it took Ædiot. He was later exposed for being a pedophile&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;web.archive.org/web/20230117163445/encyclopediadramatica.online/2023&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Kaizen: 2023-2024&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Umkemesik after he was exposed for being a pedophile. He eventually was not able to pay for the domain of the site, resulting in the death of encyclopediadramatica.online.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Ryan Brewer, (A.K.A MarioMario456): 2024-present&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;web.archive.org/web/20240515014518/encyclopediadramatica.top&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039; - Took over for Kaizen after he could no longer pay for the domain and created a new ED.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Encyclopedia Dramatica&#039;&#039;&#039; is a wiki-style [[website]] with a controversial history that is widely known for its provocative humor, trolling, and offensive content. Founded in 2004, the site started as a satirical online encyclopedia that parodied [[wikipedia:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and focused on internet memes, online dramas, and other aspects of internet culture. However, over time, the site transformed into a platform for anonymous users to post and share offensive material, including hate speech, pornography, and [[shock sites|shock images]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The site&#039;s content is often directed at individuals or groups who are perceived as belonging to internet subcultures, such as furries, bronies, and other fandoms. Encyclopedia Dramatica also frequently targets people involved in online drama or controversies and has been known to publish personal information, harass individuals, and engage in cyberbullying. Throughout its existence, &#039;&#039;Encyclopedia Dramatica&#039;&#039; has been a source of controversy, with many criticizing the site for its offensive content and harmful behavior. The website has been shut down and restarted several times due to legal issues and other problems, and has been banned by various internet service providers and countries. Despite these challenges, the site continues to operate and has gained a significant following among users who appreciate its edgy humor and controversial content. The website&#039;s creators and users have defended the site&#039;s content as a form of free speech and a response to what they perceive as [[Wikipedia:Political correctness|political correctness]] and [[Wikipedia:Censorship|censorship]] in mainstream online communities. However, others argue that the site&#039;s content promotes hate speech, harassment, and cyberbullying and that it has caused harm to individuals and communities. The site&#039;s influence on internet culture and its role in online controversies have made it a subject of interest and analysis by scholars, journalists, and other observers of digital media.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The wiki [[hosts]] many infamous [[shock site|shock pages]] including [[Offended]], [[The Pain Series|Kittens, and Puppies]], and [[Reporting Un-Islamic Content]]. Many articles on this wiki contain shock images such as [[Goatse]], [[Blue Waffle]], and [[Lemon Party]] among many others, as well as numerous other gruesome images. Encyclopedia Dramatica is known for having something vulgar/disturbing on almost every page. The reason why æ is used as its mascot is that, according to the site, it&#039;s &amp;quot;confusing and mysterious like ED itself.&amp;quot; Encyclopedia Dramatica has moved domains many times during its life. It was established in December 2004 at &#039;&#039;encyclopediadramatica.com&#039;&#039; and was originally meant to document dramatic happenings on [[Wikipedia:LiveJournal|LiveJournal]], but instead quickly became associated with [[4chan]] and Anonymous. In 2011, the site moved to a safe-for-work website called &#039;&#039;OhInternet&#039;&#039;, which also closed the same year. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, the site moved domain extensions plenty of times from .rs to .se to .ch, and many others, usually because the owners were either being arrested or banned for different reasons.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;hikaru.exe&#039;&#039;&#039;, alse known as the &#039;&#039;&#039;Sadako virus&#039;&#039;&#039; in Japan, was a Taiwanese [[screamer]] [[program]]. It is a variant of the Win32/FlaGhost malware. The original author is Qiwen Lin (林 啟文) and it was written in the [[wikipedia:Hot_Soup_Processor|Hot Soup Processor]] programming language.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the user runs it, it doesn&#039;t seem to do anything. However, it silently becomes present in the operating computer&#039;s memory. and triggers a payload at random times, which shows a full-screen picture of [[wikipedia:Teke Teke|Teke Teke]], similar but not the same as [[McDonalds.exe]], with a scream sound effect. It quickly spread over the Internet in Japan in the early 2000s. However, it didn&#039;t become as popular as its cousin. Some have complained that even when resetting the computer. However, the application will later continue its usual behavior.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The most recent version of this virus is &amp;quot;0.4&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Just like [[Madoka.exe]], According to the decompiled source code, holding down F10 when double clicking the original EXE will cause the malware to decompile itself and unpack all the assets and codes. However, this behavior is tested not working on a WinXP virtual machine.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Madoka.exe&#039;&#039;&#039;, also known as the &#039;&#039;&#039;Ghost virus&#039;&#039;&#039; or the &#039;&#039;&#039;Sadako virus&#039;&#039;&#039; in Japan, was a Taiwanese [[screamer]] [[program]]. It is a variant of the Win32/FlaGhost malware. The original author is Qiwen Lin (林 啟文) and it was written in the [[wikipedia:Hot_Soup_Processor|Hot Soup Processor]] programming language. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Payload==&lt;br /&gt;
When the user runs the malware by executing the [[.exe]] directly, a picture of Madoka Ozawa, a Japanese adult actress, in full screen is displayed along with the &amp;quot;introduce dialogue&amp;quot; Chinese text showing line by line in the upper-left corner of the screen. However, a ghost version of the woman in the image will appear briefly along with a scream sound effect, before immediately returning to the original image. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before showing the initial payload, the malware will copy itself to the Windows directory as &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;ozawa.exe&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; and try to append itself to &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;win.ini&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; in order to auto start with the operating system. Judging from the decompiled source code, this only works on [[wikipedia:Windows 98|Windows 98]] and [[wikipedia:Windows ME|Windows ME]]. On [[wikipedia:Windows_XP|Windows XP]] or higher, there is no &#039;&#039;Run&#039;&#039; section in &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;win.ini&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; and the malware will not work apart from the initial payload.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the malware is launched from the system directory as &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;ozawa.exe&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;, either from auto start or double clicking manually in the system directory, it will enter &amp;quot;reside mode&amp;quot; without showing the initial payload with the normal woman picture. Instead, it runs in background. It will then show the screamer image along with the scream sound effect indefinitely in the following intervals: 3 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, and then subsequently every 60 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the user executes the original .exe once again after infection, the normal woman picture and the &amp;quot;meet-again dialogue&amp;quot; text will be shown and there is no screamer picture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The program also records the number of executions of the original .exe (not the one in system directory) in &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;win.ini&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;. If it is run over 5 times, the malware will show the &amp;quot;bye dialogue&amp;quot; with the normal woman picture, then uninstall itself.&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Madoka.exe&#039;&#039;&#039;, also known as the &#039;&#039;&#039;Ghost virus&#039;&#039;&#039; or the &#039;&#039;&#039;Sadako virus&#039;&#039;&#039; in Japan, was a Taiwanese [[screamer]] [[program]]. It is a variant of the Win32/FlaGhost malware. The original author is Qiwen Lin (林 啟文) and it was written in the [[wikipedia:Hot_Soup_Processor|Hot Soup Processor]] programming language. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Payload==&lt;br /&gt;
When the user runs the malware by executing the [[.exe]] directly, a picture of an Asian woman in full screen is displayed along with the &amp;quot;introduce dialogue&amp;quot; Chinese text showing line by line in the upper-left corner of the screen. However, a ghost version of the woman in the image will appear briefly along with a scream sound effect, before immediately returning to the original image. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before showing the initial payload, the malware will copy itself to the Windows directory as &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;ozawa.exe&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; and try to append itself to &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;win.ini&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; in order to auto start with the operating system. Judging from the decompiled source code, this only works on [[wikipedia:Windows 98|Windows 98]] and [[wikipedia:Windows ME|Windows ME]]. On [[wikipedia:Windows_XP|Windows XP]] or higher, there is no &#039;&#039;Run&#039;&#039; section in &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;win.ini&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; and the malware will not work apart from the initial payload.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the malware is launched from the system directory as &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;ozawa.exe&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;, either from auto start or double clicking manually in the system directory, it will enter &amp;quot;reside mode&amp;quot; without showing the initial payload with the normal woman picture. Instead, it runs in background. It will then show the screamer image along with the scream sound effect indefinitely in the following intervals: 3 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, and then subsequently every 60 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the user executes the original .exe once again after infection, the normal woman picture and the &amp;quot;meet-again dialogue&amp;quot; text will be shown and there is no screamer picture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The program also records the number of executions of the original .exe (not the one in system directory) in &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;win.ini&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;. If it is run over 5 times, the malware will show the &amp;quot;bye dialogue&amp;quot; with the normal woman picture, then uninstall itself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Are you looking at me?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can get closer...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And look into my eyes...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What can you see in my eyes?&lt;br /&gt;

Ah, sorry for scaring you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m gonna tell you a secret...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve already dwelled in your computer...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Beware that I may appear anytime!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve already living in your computer...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Could you please stop bothering me?&lt;br /&gt;

You are so annoying!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m not gonna living in your computer anymore...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/tabber&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The original EXE accepts arguments. The accepted arguments are shown below:&lt;br /&gt;
** &#039;&#039;&#039;/inst&#039;&#039;&#039;: Install to system directory silently, without the initial payload.&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;&#039;/unst&#039;&#039;&#039;: Uninstall the installation&lt;br /&gt;
**&#039;&#039;&#039;/ver&#039;&#039;&#039;: Show an about dialog message box with version&lt;br /&gt;
* According to the decompiled source code, holding down F10 when double clicking the original EXE will cause the malware to decompile itself and unpack all the assets and codes. However, this behavior is tested not working on a WinXP virtual machine.&lt;br /&gt;

The &#039;&#039;&#039;Castle Cat&#039;&#039;&#039; series is a well-known collection of platformer [[games]] created by the late Felix Wiesner, also known as Wiesi. It first emerged as a [[Flash]] game hosted on &#039;&#039;mausland.de&#039;&#039; in 2004. Wiesi is recognized for his creations of bizarre and, at times, even pornographic flash games. The series includes four distinct games, each with its own unique theme and challenges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In these games, players take on the role of a cat character and must navigate various obstacles and adversaries to reach the end and defeat the boss. The objective is to accomplish this without losing any lives. The series has gained popularity over the years and can be readily found on various gaming websites.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Gameplay==&lt;br /&gt;
The Castle Cat series consists of several platformer games where players control a cat character. In the first game, players are instructed to use arrow keys to move the cat and guide it up the castle by jumping over clouds. Enemies like Knights and Clowns are placed in the clouds, with contact with Knights resulting in losing life and contact with Clowns granting bonus points. A tornado can push the cat away. Players have nearly 2 minutes to reach the top. When the cat loses, a game over the screen shows Castle Cat with bandages, expressing disappointment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The second game offers players more tools, providing a weapon to take down enemies. CTRL keys control the Cannon attack, the spacebar for the Mace attack, and the arrow keys for movement and jumping. The objective now shifts to the Sunny shores of Miami. Octopuses and cars become the new adversaries, culminating in a battle against a big crab. The time limit is extended to 4 minutes, and the game over the screen shows Castle Cat without severe injuries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the third game, a disturbing game over the screen appears, depicting a black garbage bag labeled &amp;quot;DEAD CAT.&amp;quot; The fourth game&#039;s game over screen is even more unsettling, with a black and white photo of a woman holding a rotten, roadkilled cat and a bold yellow text stating &amp;quot;YOU ARE DEAD !!! PLAY AGAIN.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite the upcoming game called &amp;quot;Castle Cat 5&amp;quot; being announced over 9 years ago, the creator decided to abandon both the [[website]] and the game. However, there is a Castle Cat 5 which was W.I.P and is in HTML, confirming that Castle Cat 5 did start the process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On November 16th, 2023, [[Newgrounds]] founder Tom Fulp announced that Felix Wiesner unfortunately passed away from health complications,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1529819&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; leaving Castle Cat 5 developments canceled.&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;Felix Wiesner&#039;&#039; was also the creator of [https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/513760 Miami Shark], which accumulated over 17,015,401 views and had been featured on the front page.&lt;br /&gt;
