ED bashing uh?
It’s user-submitted content like us. I don’t think we are THAT professionals either.

True, but ED is filled with humorous opinions facts, KYM attempts to be professional, and falls flat on it’s face usually hits the intended goal.

Sometimes I wish we were less professional, and made the entries the way we wanted to make them. Sometimes mods come in and change every single thing about the entry you worked so hard on, when it wasn’t that bad in the first place. As long as people understand it…

Go away and never come back, you little beach and shore.

Because the Forums are refined, and of a high quality.

It sys on the website that it’s purely satirical. I used to be an EDiot myself, and if you take anything ED says seriously, then you are a fucking idiot.

You took ED seriously the first time you read it?

You’re IQ is questable.

Does that mean we can launch a quest because he is an IQ?
What’s an IQ?

ED contains facts yes. But explained by /b/-tards. So porn, gore and insults are a common subject.

So instead of “Fans of the show can be found at X”, you get “The faggots who liek dis hang out at X”.

So yeah, like others already said. ED isn’t meant to be taken seriously. Also be aware of certain sections of the site, if you are inexperienced with the dark corners of the web you WILL be scarred for live by ED.

Wikipedia?

Even Wikipedia is under some scrutiny regarding its truthfulness and professionalism despite taking its job very seriously. Most of Wikipedia can be trusted but try telling that to the academics.

The fact that Wikipedia is a website and not a published text book seems to be enough reason for the scholars and professors to doubt it, that’s why you never reference Wikipedia when writing a report in school. Use it only for scouting out other reputable sources


As for ED…professional? ….HA! HA! HA!

Nothing on ED can even be taken seriously

Let me explain- During the summer, I frequented ED because it was funny. I never took anything seriously.

I, and I believe most people, find that if someone refers to themselves under a title of association, they usually identify with the group.

I.E., you thought yourself an EDiot at one point or another.

And after looking at the article contents, they’ve really got got no sense of being professional, do they?

Lmao, the only thing they’re professional in is being terrible, and slightly funny.

I can be part of a group, but not take it seriously. What do you think I’ve been doing my whole life? I can’t be taken seriously, I act like a fucking five year old, and so does ED!

Point taken.

Though you can have your mature times.

I’d say the only thing on E.D. I’ve ever really taken seriously was the Asperger’s Syndrome article. I know it’s satire, and it’s all for shock humor, but that’s just hitting below the belt.

I can’t imagine what you mean; I am actually one of the chief editors of ED, and I get all of my information from the source for all things memetic: this site.
