Shameless self promotion

From Encyclopedia Dramatica

(Redirected from Shameless self-promotion)

Constantly promoting your own websites, journals, pictures or other projects by posting about them in a way that is not relevant or warranted. Although normally practiced by attention whores and comment whores, shameless self promotion is available to the masses as a technique for helping your web traffic skyrocket.

Shameless self promotion also involves writing your own personal Encyclopedia Dramatica article(s) in an act of self-glorification, or likewise writing themselves into one. If you encounter a shameless self promoter on ED, simply add {{masturbator}} to their userpage.

Some shameless self promoters have even gone as far as faking their own decapitation by Islamic jihadists to be re-broadcast in streaming video on extremist terrorist websites such as YouTube.
