Buzzboard
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
The Buzzboard is the king of all drama generating forums found all over the Internets. It is centered around a Washington, DC raver production company called Buzzlife. There are many flame wars on the Buzzboard daily, but on the weekends it dies down. This is because everyone who uses the Buzzboard only does so at work. However, the occasional alcohol fueled tirade on a weekend isn't entirely uncommon. Also, reliable research has revealed that almost every person among the 13,000 members of this forum is a basement-dweller.

Mods
The moderators are:
- The Matador -- Admin
- Shade
- Catalyst
- Decoy
- LiftedTrance
- FutonBunny
- DeathMongerBear aka Funshine
- Kitsune Fugazzi
- Jungle Jessi
The mods of the Buzzboard were once looked up to for their dilligence in moderating the forums. On November 18, 2006, the Buzzboard superadmin accidentally made the mod forum public for a brief period of time, and registered users caught a glimpse at reported "shit talking" that goes on in said room. The specific forum is now hidden, but the threads discussing it are here and here.
Mod Drama Printouts!
As mentioned above and below, the moderator "digital vip room" was accidentally opened to all users for about thirty minutes. Internet lawyers from Maryland, Virginia and DC swarmed to get copies of these legal documents. While no digital copy was retained, a hard copy of some threads was obtained by ED detectives, which have been transcoded back into digital format for lulz archiving.

Reading Tips
Some Buzzboard reading tips for your reading pleasure:
- Beware of reading some of the regular posters comments, as it might cause you to incessantly roll your eyes at your computer monitor.
- Take note of the multiple genre-segregated music "discussion" forums, which are actually just extensions of the off-topic/waffle forum (much the same as every other forum on the board). If one is feeling overly masochistic they can head to the "IN YO' FACE DRUM n BASS forum, where one can take in meaningful discussions such as "techstep or gtfo" or "did you hear that new handbag-step track High Contrast played?"
- If you are not PLURRING while reading, you are doing it wrong.
Buzzboard-specific acronyms
Buzzboard has spawned several buzzboard-specific acronyms, with corresponding smilies:
 GITHD - Give It To Her Deeply |
 DPHBA - Donkey Punch Her Bitch Ass |
Examples of Drama
The board administrators tend to lock down drama and move dramatica threads to The Classics for us and our posterity. Some examples include:
- Whelp! I Must Away - User "Chicago" says farewell to Washington, DC. User known simply as "bitch" says "GOOD RIDDANCE" and sparks a 14-page, 523-post thread about how much everyone hates "Chicago". A user later commented, "that thread really unified us in ways that rarely happen".
- The Betrayed Series - you have to read it to believe it. [1] [2] [3] [4]
- OMFGLMFAO - Buzzboard admin accidentally makes the mod forum public for approximately 30 minutes. Various users make hard copies, guaranteeing future lulz.
- Va's Finest - one user asks why everyone hates the drum and bass/breakbeat crew known as "Va's Finest". Apparently the reason a lot of people don't like them is because they aren't the finest, and the DJs are insulted by this. Or something. This continued to part 2, and generated a response from one of Va's Finest members.
- Dobbs - A pedophile who was once a well respected member of the DC rave scene was busted. See offical Fairfax police report here.
- Cupcake Drama - Katrina and Laura made cupcakes, Ian thanked the makers of the treats as a guise to diss Katrina. Lulz and drama ensued.
- Controlling partner, please tell me im not alone. Im scared - no drama, but a very good rofl read.
- Vote for your favorite breaks DJ - a poll for Buzzlife's NYE party asks people to vote for their favorite breaks DJ. "Jill T", a member of the freeform dj collective, climbs to second place despite only getting two gigs. "Daniella Downs", who received double the amount of votes as Jill, gets upset and forfeits. The drama starts around post #300 I think.
- Petition for Dubstep to have its own section on the board - Dubstep aficionados do not want to be considered a subforum of "off the beaten path", petition for their own forum on the board.
- The "Man Talk" Thread - Amazing
- The Real Djx aka "Icy The Clown", aka Evan Graham - Evan Graham, a clown-for-hire and epic trance DJ, plays out in the parking lot of Starscape. It is so hilarious that everyone wants to see him play again for the lulz. Eventually, Evan finds out about the thread and starts replying to threads.
- KLarge2008 - a Baltimore promoter and founder of K Large Productions, tries to throw a massive event. After not receiving payment, one of the headliners from the UK signs on to the board to call her out. Everyone laughs at her.
