Forum:Buy an ad on Encyclopedia Dramatica

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia

Yeah, yeah. I know. But before you decide this is vandalism or us playing some kind of prank, read the rest, ok? And I'm really trying to avoid spamming, I posted this here on Sannse's suggestion after asking in your IRC channel.

Reasons Uncyclopedia should advertise on ED:

  • ED shares a lot of the same user base.
  • ED wouldn't censor your ad. Even if you wanted to post one saying how much we suck.
  • We could also give you guys a discount if you take out a week long ad just for putting up with our shit for so long. =)

If you didn't immediately dismiss the suggestion, we are selling space through Adbrite and if you enter the promo code ED at the checkout, it will give you the discount. Prices are pretty reasonable anyway.

OK, knowing ED, you probably are going "wtf, is this a setup?" and it's really not. ED has had a huge increase in users and traffic and we've been hit with some overage for bandwidth. We'd like to not see that come out of GirlVinyl's pocket.

Even if Uncyclopedia doesn't want to advertise for itself, any of its users are welcome to take advantage of the offer and promo code.

Merry Christmas, Uncyclopedia. =)

If we're honest this is likely to go down like a lead balloon, but good luck with it anyway. :) -- Sir Mhaille Icons-flag-gb.png (talk to me)
Probably, we are a little polarizing. But there is also some common ground. =) --Zionistacat 08:52, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

How does ED share the same userbase with us? Our lot is picked from all four corners of the internet, and ED's lot is picked from Livejournal users. Crazyswordsman...With SAVINGS!!!! (T/C) 05:25, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Haha, just wanted to let you know I tried going onto ED from work, and the site is "websensed" (i.e. blocked), and the reason given is that it's "tastless" (seriously). --Composure1 14:37, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

I don't know a single workplace that DOESN'T block ED. We, however, are not blocked. Where I worked this summer, even Wikipedia was placed in the "Warning" area. We, however, are fully accessable from that place. Which goes to show you we're better than both Wikipedia AND ED. Crazyswordsman...With SAVINGS!!!! (T/C) 18:34, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
Mine doesn't. Looks like ED are about to lose their hosting yet again - David Gerard 15:05, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
Has ED lost its hosting? And how many times? I wonder if MediaWiki would refuse to continue allowing ED to use it. Crazyswordsman...With SAVINGS!!!! (T/C) 01:37, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

I can list a number of reasons not to advertise on ED:

  1. ED doesn't have any hits. Quit trying to fool yourselves and admit it.
  2. We already have the media talking about us. For free.
  3. The kind of people who actually enjoy ED are NOT the kind of folks we want on this site. >_>
  4. Really, who on Uncyc has money?
    1. And who would want to give it to you guys? I'd love to see the site go bankrupt. ^_^
  5. Seriously, fuck ED.

We're not going to buy an ad on ED because we here at Uncyclopedia are better than ED, and Benson is better than all of us. --General Insineratehymn 13:24, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

No kidding? Way to go, Sherlock Elvis. You've solved the greatest mystery of our retarted times. How the hell do you expect BENSONites to be anything but talk on a bloody damn forum? I never wear trousers when I'm using the forum, I would be shocked to learn anyone does otherwise. --The Acceptable Thinking cap small.png Cainad Sacred Chao.png (Fnord) 21:28, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
You forgot Wikipedia. BENSON's greatness is better than ours, and even the craptacular Wikipedia AND ED. Crazyswordsman...With SAVINGS!!!! (T/C) 04:51, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
Actually, ED is occasionally on the news, but when it is it's because of some controversy or how tasteless they are. When we're on the news, however, it's always glittering praise and flowers. -- §. | WotM | PLS | T | C | A 00:42, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
