EDF1

This is an article about the ancient, defunct circlejerk forums. The second edition can be found at [[EDF2: Electric Boogaloo]]. For the awesome live forums, go to [[EDF6]].

The ED Forums [[ohinternet|were]] the official [[forum]]s for the [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] community at large.
]]

It went live July 9th, [[2009]] after the discovery of a [[1337]] forumfag named [[User:Kazantzakis|Dan]] (a refugee from [[Stile Project]]'s forums) amongst the ranks of ED's multi-talented [[ED:ADR|Sysop]] crew. The forums were a [[green]] company, powered entirely by pure, unadulterated [[lulz]].

EDF was [[free]] of charge and welcomed one and all regardless of [[btard|race]], [[furfag|breed]] or [[white|color]]. However, all the really [[faggot|cool kids]] hung out in the super secret [[jew gold|Paid Members Only]] forums where they could [[flame|trade barbs]] on a variety of boards and get [[ODB]] dong pix in exchange for information, which leadto a reliable Opium dealer.
The forums are widely known worldwide for hiding [[furfag|furfags]] and [[hipster|hipsters]]

between [[fail|ED Forums]] and [[unfunny|SA Forums]] at any given time]].

Layout

The ED discussion boards had undergone several incarnations regarding the overall look of the site. Pretty much every layout had been retardedly put together by [[Dan]] because he felt like he was a master of graphics design. Other themes had been shamelessly stolen off of torrent sites, but since nobody had a current working theme for the forum's software version, all of these ill-gotten themes failed miserably. The last-used theme, one of complete madness, bore a striking resemblance to either a [[Star Trek]] forum, where all the users snort airplane glue, or a shitty [[Geocities]] site, circa 1997. The only thing missing from this abomination was cursor chasers that looked like sparkly comets.

This failure of design would continue until EDF1 was completely wiped with the destruction of the original website. Dan went completely blind and couldn't make edits to the forum's templates, or when somebody bought the forum a custom theme. Since purchasing a custom theme can cost a administrator several hundreds of dollars, that option seemed to be off the table, pending a lottery win by the forums owner.

Until the very end, the users kept suffering...

Capitalism

]]

Recently said suffering has been turned into a [[BDSM|form of art]], after Dan decided that money can buy anything on EDF. For only a few dollars every attention craving silver spoon licking user can set up terrible, terrible background images or music to agonize the whole forum, or revamp his manhood e-personality with dashing name colors, giant avatars and other fancy atrocities. Having a customized account is the hippest thing on EDF and says a lot about your personality, [[dying_alone|but nothing you could be proud of.]]

On the bright side you can also pay to get a hated user or a random stranger [[banhammer|banned]] for a couple of days. Here the mods show that they are not discriminating anyone or anything, as you can ban a mod as well, including Dan himself. Dan's blunt willingness to get abused for money can be explained by his past as a child prostitue in south-east Czechia.

Forums

Swear Word Filter

will be punished by having the whole site taken down and ED losing money.]]
There was a rich variety of word filters filtering bad words into good ones and providing lots of happy confusion for everyone. However, after a grumpy faggot used his lunch money to buy a word filter that changes [[Casual_Friday|"caesual" into "fæggot"]], Dan got irritated and turned all other filters off in December 2009, probably to underline the importance of the remaining fæggot-filter. This affinity to the gay life-style can be explained by Dan's past as a child prostitue in south-east Czechia.

This is the type of shenanigans that go on daily. Shit is fake, don't believe it. Ever.

Sock Puppets

It's estimated that at least two thirds of all accounts registered on EDF are sockpuppets, most of which belong to [[faggots|banned users]]. Of course, instead of just taking their ban like a man, they act like the faggots they truly are and use their sockpuppet armies in a attempt to get a [[SSCash|mod]] to bawww. To no one's surprise, they fail at using a [[7 proxies|proxy]] and don't realize that mods have the ability to [[Hackers on steroids|see their ip address]], which always results in lulz.

A Mod's Fall From Grace

JEWS DID MTHRFKN

A once distinguished moderator known colloquially as "that brown guy that makes tl;dr threads" or more formally as mthrfkn was involved in one of the most scandalous events in the forum's history. He decided to [[dox] a user by the name of Kittyloaf; a girl. He throws around some threats at her, for the lulz. The mods and admins decided to make a big fucking deal about it because they are all white knighting homosexuals. mthrfkn gets a bitching out on IRC and a big old ban on all fronts, straight in the anus. If this tale isn't fishy enough already, the user that got dox'd was given mod powers shortly thereafter. Conspiracy...? Definitely. Put on your fucking tin foil hats kids, because shit just got real. To this day, KittyLoaf is evasive concerning the details of the event. mthrfkn dropped off the face of the earth and hasn't been seen since. We may never know the truth.

There are some that believe that he the entire thing was a charade, put on to stir up lulz and drama. Others believe mthrfkn simply transformed in to a new, more beautiful form. Just don't let the mods feed you their lies. Jews did mthrfkn. Do your part by shitposting on the forums and PMing mods to give you the [[truth]].

EDF IRC

The forums' very own channel, [irc://irc.encyclopediadramatica.rs/forum #forum] is where users go to [[circle jerk|chat]] about all things EDF. Just like most IRC networks, conversations generally dissolve in to meaningless diatribes and [[flaming]] faggotry.

#forum was where the [[Lie|famous]] EDF movie night was first conceived. Previous movie nights have included such classics as "Twilight" and "Power Rangers". Users engage in [[spam|deep debates on the films as well as intelligent critiques]]. lolno but seriously they all just sit around on their computers and try to make witty comments about the movie to gain e-respect from some other fat nerd on the other end or type in all caps. Think [[MST3K]] but without the wit or funniness. It's pretty sad, really.

Skype

Since everybody wanted to hear each other breathing and moaning so much, EDF went hi-tech, and so the local [[skype]] club initiated. Generally, every faggot with a microphone can and will join, provided they have a fuckmate that can invite him to their [[Gay|circle of love]]. Nothing more than what happens in IRC occurs here, except you can masturbate to the voices of your beloved EDiots.
