| 9/11 + | '''September 11, 2001''' was an event that … '''September 11, 2001''' was an event that shocked the [[United States]] and the world. This naturally caused an outpouring of compassion, grief, anger, empathy, and patriotism. The internet served as one place where these feelings could be expressed, leading to many online tributes. However, some tributes were better than others... , some tributes were better than others... |
| 9gag + | '''9gag''' is yet another [[Memebase]] kno … '''9gag''' is yet another [[Memebase]] knockoff that similarly steals [[image macros]], [[rage comics]], [[demotivational posters]] and anything else found on /[[b]]/ and then proceeds to put their ugly watermarks on the bottom of the image to claim as their own. In a nutshell, 9gag is the toilet bowl of the internet, being last to receive internet content by the time it becomes a [[BS|putrid pile of feces]] that is in need of getting flushed. Or you can compare it to that idiot that's last to laugh at a joke an hour (a year in this case) after the joke was told, and then re-telling said joke to a bunch of 12-year old kids/manchilds and claiming it as their own. The purpose of their site is "[[Rebecca Black|just for fun]]", but mainly to milk buckets of cash off random pictures they found on 4chan and other sites that share a similar nature. 9gag makes effective use of the content hosted on their site, being shared through social networking websites, the most prominent being [[Facebook]]. As users can like and comment on images directly from their Facebook accounts, they become spammed throughout your Facebook news feed, ensuing one a feed full of [[unfunny]] rage comics. In a cesspool that is ridden with websites that take advantage of [[memes]] and other bizarre yet trending internet phenomenon that became old news on [[4chan]] months ago in order to commercialize them and generate revenue off of them, it creates a surge of newfags. This in turn causes the pseudo-oldfags, with their edgy attitude of the internet, to become outrageously bitter when they see any meme outside of /b/ become mainstream. 9gag yet again proves that [[original content]] is dead beyond death. ==The Website== 9gag uses a fairly simple layout with their website widgets customized with cringeworthy memes. They have three self-explanatory main pages: ''What's Hot'', ''Trending'', and ''Vote''. On 9gag, voting on images requires you to sign up to the site in order to view or use the page. There was a time where a registration wasn't needed to vote on images, however, because of the [[9GAG#4chan vs 9gag: A Tale of Internet Idiocy|war between 4chan and 9gag]], 9gag has made it so that you need an account to vote on images to prevent Anons from down voting all the images out of spite. In addition to these pages, 9gag also has a "fast" page, which gives you a more simple and lighter version of the "What's Hot" page. 9gag also features keyboard shortcuts, those being: :*C - for commenting :*H - hating :*J- Next image :*K - Previous image :*L - Like and :*R- random image ==''Le 9gagger xD''== [[File:9gagger.jpg|thumb|Your average "9gagger".]] What makes 9gag even less tolerable is their user base. Simply put, the majority of "le 9gagger", as they call themselves (yeah, we thought it sounded stupid too), comprises of [[norp]]s who recently discovered ''how2internets'' and everything that is wrong with the internet. 9gaggers are a loathsome bunch, surpassing even the people at [[Reddit]] or [[Gaia Online]] in terms of general inanity and annoyance. The average 9gag fan tend to overuse the word "le", "xD" and "lulz" to the point where even Reddit users and /b/tards would sigh in disgust. People of 9gag also believe that 9gag invented memes, and the term mainly refers strictly to [[rage face]]s. Because of this, some people will even refuse to look at an image or laugh at it after seeing that it has a 9gag watermark underneath it. 9gag fans take "[[I'm so random|TROLOLOL LE IM SO RANDOM xDDD !!!11 U MAD BRO?]]" to a new plateau, and because of it, a bunch of new jokes for the [[Annoying Facebook Girl]] [[Advice variation]] has been formed given that no one's safe from 9gag on [[Facebook]]. ==Watermarking== Just like Memebase or any other internet-laden website owned by Cheezburger, 9gag just loves to watermark images even when they clearly aren't their own. Ironically enough, one of 9gag's ''9 rules'' requires "originality and creativity" and [[unfunny|funny content]]. Failing to upload a ''funny'' image will grant a user an account suspension, although one wouldn't need to worry about that since the site owners' and general audiences' sense of humor is equivalent to that of a retarded hyena on laughing gas.

| AOHell + | '''AOHell''' was the first of what became … '''AOHell''' was the first of what became 1000's of hacker proggies created for use with [[AOL]]. The toolkit included: a credit card number generator, Email bomber, IM bomber, Punter, and a basic set of instructions to use it. An all-in-one nice convenient way to break federal fraud law, violate interstate trade regulations, and rack up a couple of good ol' telecommunications infractions in one fell swoop. When the program was loaded it would play a short clip from Dr. Dre's 1993 song "Nuthin but a G Thang". "Da Chronic" claims in the manual that he made it to protect the 13 year old boys from gay pedophiles. It also fit on a single 3.5" floppy disk. ==How it was used== The proggie was mostly used for [[trolling]] due to it's ability to provide excellent [[lulz]]. <br> The proggie was found very useful by a group of hackers know as "Genocide2600" who happened to be EHAP, 'Ethical Hackers Against Pedophilia' enthusiasts. The "Genocide2600" kept a link to EHAP's website on the front page of their own website and was well known for launching lengthy attacks against online pedophiles. ==AOHell and the news== AOHell caused great havoc on [[AOL]] which was even covered by a journo named "Simon Garfinkel" whose story first appeared in ''The Boston Globe'', April 21, 1995. In Simon LIAR Garfinkel's story he claimed that in AOHell's instruction manual the author "Da Chronic" said he only created the program because he hated the AOL staff and wanted to cause as much chaos as possible...despite the real Anti-Pedophile reason it was created being out there in the open from the very fucking start. Clearly Simon Garfinkel is a pedophile himself, hence intentionally leaving out the blatant anti-pedohpile reason for the proggie's existence. ==What AOL did to combat AOHell== [[AOL]] would terminate the account of anyone using AOHell, this did little good as they couldn't stop a user from creating a new one for free with AOHell. AOL also put out bullshit hype about the program being infected with spyware and viruses. m being infected with spyware and viruses. |

According to some [[EQ2Flames]] users, he had sex with a few players at the [[Sony Online Entertainment]] convention "FanFaire" - in exchange for in-game items. But whatever about that. He played as a dark elf assassin in the game, and worked with balancing races (such as frogs or barbarians) and classes (such as necromancers and paladins.) However, he liked to better his own favorite race/class and make everything else weaker. Therefore, players did not like him that much. ===2008 Drama=== It got even worse though, in early 2008, when someone outed his character name and [[dox]] on [[EQ2Flames]]. Aeralik, who somehow had mod powers when he wasn't supposed to, freaked out and deleted it all. LFG, the owner of EQ2Flames, put up a poll that asked if developers should have their public info outed. Aeralik said: <center> <div style="clear:none; max-width:50em;"><div style="margin: 0 10%;"> {| style="border-collapse:collapse; background-color:transparent;" | valign="top" style="overflow:hidden; margin: 0 0 1em 0; color:silver; font-size:2.7em; font-family:serif; font-weight:bold; text-align:left;" | <span style="line-height:0.4em;"> </span><br />“ | valign="middle" style="overflow:hidden; padding:0 1em; text-align:left; font-style:italic;" | <br />sorry but if you want to increase your ad revenue at my expense with that gay poll then im done.
