From Encyclopedia Dramatica

banniNation.com (2007 onward) is a "weird news" and porn link aggregator. It is also known as "bN"

banniNation was born last tuesday when Fark jumped the shark on April the 25th of 2007, with the worst site redesign evar, and the revaltion that paying totalfarkers were being shadowbanned, keeping them paying money while not actually having any ability to post to the site, which made a lot of people unhappy.

banniNation doesn't have any admins - instead, all users can moderate the site and content. This has predictably led to drama, especially in politics threads. Some argue that bN is full of groupthink, but this usually gets said after someone gets butthurt after losing a flame war.

[edit] Content

As an aggregator site, bN doesn't have any actual content, as it's easier to just link to places that do the work and then bitch about how biased the source is.

On the plus side, it does link to lots of porn, and mercifully avoids photoshop contests, which are old, and anyway just give more money to ebaumsworld.

Voting takes place in da kew where users vote what goes front page, as opposed to moderators or admins. Around 50 links are on the front page on a cycling nature. Spamming and trolling da kew results in penalties to users. So no, you can't have your Racist Theme College Party frontpaged over and over and over again.

Users are encouraged set their liked 'tags' in their profiles, so as their preferred links will remain at top of page. Once a thread becomes an epic thread, the community begins to submit discussions talking about it, otherwise known as meta, for days and days. This kills any lulz related to the previous epic status. Six meta 'tags' banish the article/discussion to the mhetto. bN's most popular tags include meta, politics, theft of services. MOAR tags added daily some bring lulz, others are greatly lacking. Tagging too many things one specific tag results in whining and general butthurt from the bNers who fear change and lulz.

[edit] STF* *nd*x and N*ncy M*tr*c

Using complex Al Gore rhythms, some ninjas, Computer Science III, and a crosseyed gerbil named Ruprecht, banniNation allows community moderation with lots of numbers. Contrary to other knobs that turn to 11, when your bN knob is turned to -3 you get a STFU Index. Other ways to get STFU'd noob is to have kew submissions voted as spam. One of the punishments for a high STFU Index is disemvowelment. Most notably demonstrated first by tass. After being voted down repeatedly, his first post was "dchnzzls."

If a user votes down a post, the libs in chat will vote it back up giving that user a pillow-biting-nancy score. The nancy faces a variety of punishments including not being able to vote, if you attempt to vote you get taken nancy hunting, and left to nurse your ass wounds. Jingks was the ultimate nancy with 54. That was until mathmatix more than doubled his score.

[edit] Meta

The most popular and most retarded of all topics on bN. Folks were getting butthurt about all the META threads on mainpage, so Grahams wiped their tears and created the mhetto.

[edit] LOLsuit to be filed by EJ0

EJ0, Lionsryche, The crusader, and other alts feel spiritually, politically, and physically persecuted. Ratfucker found some of Ej0's personal info through The Google, but failed to share, even though it contained many lulz. Then RF took a photo EJ0 posted early on in bN history, and edited ms paint cum on his face, since lionsryche(one of his alts) claimed to be an ex gay. EJ0, continuing the cycle of butthurt stalked Grahams and gained his personal contact info. Once again, the internet is proven to be serious business as EJ0 called Gman at home late one night and asked him what he was wearing. Grahams, wearing a pink halter top and some cut off jorts, scared by the call hung up and called his LOLyer. EJ0 threatened a LOLsuit and is monitoring the site. So if you post on bN, remember EJ0(much like ceiling cat) is watching you post.

[edit] Christmas Miracle of 2007

Normally, Christmas is the slowest day of the year for a news discussion site, not for bN. Swinging Johnson submitted and delivered a lolcow for the bN community, and we didn't get him anything. It all began in a meta thread. SJ, thinking his lulz bring all the boys to the yard, posted "If I had known my vote would have caused you to have a Rectal Prolapse I would have not voted it down and spared you the emotional anguish that you now suffer." Mathmatix then replied with a trolling post, "If i would have known you'd get a rectal prolapse from talking about things you've talked about before, i'd probably have said them sooner." Thread died, no lulz were achieved.

Fast forward to Christmas morning, SJ high on life begins his immaculate butthurt tirade against Mathmatix, who was fast asleep with visions of lulz dancing in his head. SJ, realizing internet is serious fucking business, began to make threats about chopping the fingers off of users with a cigar cutter. You can view whats left of the lulz carcass here. SJ's STFU Index is over 6, so he'll enjoy a week of unexpected loneliness and feelings of "I shouldn't have done that."

Tarrant84's thoughts on the matter:

“	"Now this is a story all about how SJ flipped bN upside down And I'd like to take a minute just sit right there I'll tell you how SJ become the prince of a a town called Bel Air In the Phillipines, his brown orphan babies were raised Looking for their daddies they spent most of their days Daddy was on IRC cryin' and whinin' acting like a tool While brown orphan babies couldn't go to school He submitted a thread and snorted some coke and tried and said he is misunderstood Then he started threatening ratfucker in the neighborhood He got in one little fight and Grahams got scared And said, "You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air." He whistled for a cab and when it came near The license plate said BANNED FROM IRC YOU FUCKING QUEER If anything he could say that this ban was rare But he thought, "I'M A CUT OFF YOUR FINGERS SO PREPARE!" He pulled up to the house about 7 or 8 And he said to the cabbie "Yo homes, smell you later!" Looked at his kingdom he was finally there To sit on his throne as the prince of Bel-Air.."	„

[edit] The Creators

Grahams he's the one that keeps the failboat afloat. bN still wont get 750 users, they're all just alts of the same five people.

Cranky Bastard likes ur mudkipz.

IPE is just as important as the other two, just no one is sure what he does.

[edit] The First Wave

bN users used to get lulz from a variety of websites, most notably fark. But when fark closed its doors to lulz and began baleeting posts and users, some vowed to nevar forget. Some are listed below:

Elchip known for his erotic novels, he's personally responsible for more bN users than any other. Now in denial, he is also a Patriotic Nigra.

Untrustworthy has an ePeen bigger than yours. His user number is the lowest until grahams decides to use imaginary ones.

Finnley Wren had a great view of Logan Airport on 9/11, thanks for asking.

Munins Fire gains his recognition on bN for being Michael Moron's personal shadow. The founder and member of The Fair Play Brigade. Recently, munin gained a job IRL and has faded from the bN spotlight. Untrustworthy laughs at munins' dwindling post count.

[edit] Saving bN So You Don't Have Too

Ratfucker took his name from a political term, but don't let that fool ya. He's the rat of bN that considers himself the site's personal jesus. He posts for the sins of other trolls, so you don't have too. He crucifies himself as the person to protect bN from the likes of EJ0. Now that EJ0's STFU Index is stuck at 3 and unable to post, Ratfucker finds his time more idle. Between the emo depression that is slowly driving him to consider an hero status and unable to deal with the free time, he pops in on occasion desperately trying to appear relevant to an uncaring bN community.(writing credits to The Gospel of Thomas as most of this was taken from a quote in the beer garden.)

[edit] Stokke is his beard, Boxed Merlot is his courage

Bonnie is a bisexual user confused about his life. Its only when boxes of merlot are involved that Bonnie sees things clearly. When Allison Stokke is involved, expect epic amounts of faggotry soon after. After a couple boxes of merlot, Bonnie's meltdowns bring all the boys to the yard. Examples of his faggotry can be found here(most recent bonnie thread).

Voted Most Likely to have to explain the transexual hooker in the car (July 7th, 2008); Voted Most Likely to suck dick for merlot (July 7th, 2008)

[edit] The Best Of The Rest

Tass is one of the most unforgettable bNers. This is due to his choice in wimmens. Tass' dream date.

Tarrant84 transfered over from TOS. He's the litigious user that is always devils advocate. Recently, T84 began a fursecution campaign against Vaylon Kenadell. An early setback with accusations against the wrong alt, T84 forges ahead undeterred and will begin infurnment camps within the year.

Abbynormal, a bNette with plenty of fans on the site. One of the few to consistently share da boobs. Very cute, and no she won't touch your penis.

Chain Blue only mentioned here, to recommend you never click his links.

Illuminaughty is a guy who pretends to be a chic online, according to bboy. Illuminaughty is one of the nicer bNettes as she shares all that God gave her on a regular basis.

Heresy of Truth has bacon tits what do you have?

Does Not Exist has a great user name. DNE has a PhD, so he's smarter than you. He also has an imaginary girlfriend, but thats okay because its an unconditional love.

Chronocide is Steve Carell's character from 40 year old virgin, except at 22. Unfortunately, he hasn't even attempted to ask a girl out. He continues to build his collection of bad 80's music and assault rifles. Chronocide continues to seduce a married mormon woman, not realizing he's doing it wrong.

Canusa, only mentioned cuz of anus in the username.

Bluegargoyle - defends the separation of church and state the way mother bears defend their cubs.

Swinging Johnson is an Elvis entertainer by day, a retarded Mac chatter by evening. Mainly level headed in forums due to a cocktail of pharmaceutical drugs. Once claimed to impregnate his son after eating magic mushrooms. Don't cross him he has a file on you!

Kesshi takes his name from the surfer food 'Kashi' but due to his illiteracy misspelled his own name. Kesshi is a fan of fat chics, Michael Savage(as entertainment), and other people's kids. He achieved bN recognition when he went after Grahams in a picture battle.

Totalsecurity owns a gold mine, lives in alaska and may have antifreeze instead of blood.

KB7RKY has made a furious effort to become moderator of the site without moderators. Known to most as a kew kommando, kb7rky won't hesistate to call you out for downvotes but will administer his own as he sees fit. Known to post comments concerning one of two things: a picture of a big gun and a picture of the dudes from Mythbusters.

(KB7RKY is a known gay and has tried to run rule 34 with Adam and Jamie.

[edit] bN trolls

EricJohnson0, banned from an unbanable site, is the most notable. His trolling knows no limits.

The_gospel_of_thomas - aka "The King of Butthurt," TGOT contributed nothing but whine before he quit the site in a cloud of fail. TGOT has also attempted to remove this entry from ED, but got spotted.

Michael Moron, when not trolling da kew with Hillary Clinton's first stint in politics as 'The Joker' in Batman, you can find him in threads being a good talking points sound board. His main area of expertise is politics, and tries to use jedi mind tricks on experienced internet users.

Gahbrone wasn't among the first wave but is notable due to his typical meltdowns in threads.

Beleaver - A 14 year old boy jacking off to donkey-porn on his mom's laptop, Beleaver managed to get disemvoweled within two days of creating his account. There was much lulz to be had.

Untrustworthy - Ron Paul troll. Argue with him about the delicious taste of Ron Paul's throbbing cock and he'll explain to you why it is that you don't understand the Constitution.

Token - Gay troll.

Elchip - Erotica troll.

Feepness - Generic Ron Paul troll.

Jerk - Pot smoking security guard

Farkmeblind - Trolling from the left is still trolling

Screwy - He can never get enough kewshitting about Racist Themed College Parties, or RTCP for short.

5uperman isn't the hero his name implies. He's the Bizarro Superman without the powers. After laying a thorough foundation of trolling through the threads, 5upes now has a dozen flaming posts for every one of his. Not content with trolling only in posts, some even created user names such as 8atman, Wond3r W0man, 8ruce Wayne, and 5piderman. Somewhat a source of lulz in an 'you like two retards fighting over an imaginary cookie' kind of way.

This Guy may be one of the greatest trolls ever, because nobody ever realizes she/he/it is trolling until the 21st of Decemeber, 2012, 21st of Decemeber, 2012, at which point it doesn't matter.

soledsoled Fuck you soledsoled.

ValentinSelezynov is Banninations resident Scientologist. VS is apparently an ex-gay who claims that the Co$ "cured" him of loving teh cock. He notably got disemvoweled during a particularly epic [2] (warning: thread may kill your browser) after calling 3 members of the site child molesters for helping autistic children. He also thinks that the Co$ getting banninated from germany for breaking the law is worse than the nazis killing 6 million jews, and thinks that the moon is an artificial construct put there by aliens to guide humanity. We're not making this shit up, read the thread above. VS may actually be an anon doing it for the lulz, but this would be less amusing than him being the lolcow he is. Whenever VS is challenged about any of his beliefs he refuses to say and claims talking about his beliefs might make him ill, but nobody cares. He has also left bN more times than anyone (up to 33 times in a single thread). He came to bN after being banned from myspace for telling a moderator that his child wasn't autistic, just a retard.

[edit] bNers/bNettes who have left to much lulz

Redstaterefugee is a middle-aged, photo posting attention whore. Early on in bN history, RSR was a popular because she was one of the few bNettes to post da boobs. When other users such as Sweetrage started posting their cash and prizes, RSR become a jealous bitch and said This(bN) is becoming a fattie site, too???. When her dried up vagoo was no longer needed, she began to troll the site. Not content to just leave the site, she proceeded to say her work system was h4x0r3d in her emo journal entry and the images posted of her were stolen goods.

Pilto is a liberal troll who likes to whine online. He's most notably remembered for getting butthurt and posting "grahams, send me back my donation. i see no reason to help support you assholes."

Vaylon Kenadell is known as a hentai drawing, shitting dick nipples loving troll who still haunts da kew at bN to this very day.

Jerk is a jerk, an epic thread also due to the largest tag cloud ever. He totaled his car and after some seducing The Google, he had been found to admitting to taking the pot. Only interesting due to his constant flaming of other users who enjoyed marijuana cigarettes, reefers. No longer a source of lulz as he has some other car to rice out.

butthurtboy Butthurt over his Scientologist friend's less than warm reception on bN, he told the libs in chat "well, fuck you guys" in late March and haven't been seen since. He's also butthurt over the low brow nature of bN and the fact that his far right buddies no longer visit the site.

[edit] bN Quotes

“	"The fact of the matter is, I'm one of the more intelligent and creative persons on this website. The constant trolling and defense of trolls by people such as yourself is growing very old, very fast. Perhaps you should reconsider your decision to choose having someone around like the crusader over someone like finnley wren, who is, at worst, a thousand times more perceptive than you will ever manage to be."	„
—Vaylon Kenadell shortly before butthurt and a series of "I'm leaving" threads began., [3]

“	"grahams, send me back my donation. i see no reason to help support you assholes."	„
—Pilto, after realizing Indian giving isn't just a saying its the bN way., [4]

“	"Just because a woman has a vagina and someone sticks something in it without permission, it isn't always rape."	„
—The Crusader, you gonna get... services stolen.", [5]

“	"bN, it's a bunch of white Oprahs."	„
—5uperman, posts and receives

“	"soledsoled, I don't give a shit what you have to say, ever. In fact, from here on, I'm not replying to a goddamn thing you say. Fuck you forever."	„
—flyingpig, bN's resident nancy. [6]
