[ | [http://www.hugelol.com HUGELOL], also known as [[9gag]] 2: Electric Boogaloo, is a site dedicated to [[Fail|humor]] and [[Cancer|fun]]. Yes, the correct way to type the site's name is in all caps. | ||
== The Site Itself == | |||
The site's format is almost identical to 9gag's, with the main difference being that HUGELOL's main pages are devoted to "humor" while there are special pages for other types of content which only the admins can directly submit to. This includes a page for food. ''We are not shitting you''. Aside from that, it has the same vote-based system for post scores that most sites of this type possess. Its other difference from 9gag are the user pages, which are distinctively '''worse'''. | |||
== The Userbase == | |||
[[File:ShitpostingLoudly.gif|thumb|right|Average HUGELOL poster]] | |||
[[Matrix|Bots. Lots of bots.]] | |||
The HUGELOL admins actively maintain several bots to prevent people from realising that only a small minority of the content posted is actually posted by users, and therefore keep getting [[Jewgold|Jewgolds]] from their current ad partner, whatever poor company that might be at the time. The HUGELOL users exist in 4 varieties: | |||
* The lurkers which lurk all day | |||
* The keyboard warriors that create an arguement on every single post | |||
* The posters which inevitably get to the front page because the users are as hungry for good content as they are for cock after being fed the worst shitposts known to man daily | |||
* The repost police which go from post to post and write "repost" in all caps in the comments if they faintly remember seeing the post somewhere | |||
The HUGELOL users fervently hate 9gag, although this is more because they are in denial of their own website's similarity to the cancer of the internet than because they have actual valid reasons to hate 9gag. | |||
== [[Jews|The Admins]] == | |||
In a far corner of the internet, one cunning jew's nose suddenly picked up the smell that jews love the most, the smell of opportunity to get more [[Jewgold|jewgold]]. 9gag was losing any shred of funny left in it and the users were looking for a way out. Putting his plan into motion, this particular jew put together a very simple website to attract users with the promise of funny content and freedom from the [[Cancer|cancer]]. New members flowed in like cash to the jew's bank account. Now all he had to do was maintain the status quo while adding features to the website to keep getting jewgold. It is unknown if the jew works alone or if there are other admins, however it's unlikely he'd be willing to share any of his jewgold with other jews, so he may in fact simply have a few slaves working for pennies. So while the admins claim to try to keep unfunny content off the website as much as possible, they can't have any potential [[jewgold|user]] escape their grasp, so they disallow unfunny content on the main pages, but made separate pages for anything you can imagine. | |||
== Content Sources == | |||
HUGELOL has always largely relied on stealing content. It doesn't matter where the content originates from. You'll find content from 9gag, tumblr, imgur and a dozen other websites. Nobody is safe from HUGELOL's rampant kleptomania. It doesn't matter if the person that made the content doesn't want it to end up anywhere but his webpage, it doesn't matter if he made the content to raise money for charity, it doesn't matter if he's trying to pay for his dying mother's cancer treatments, HUGELOL will take the content. The only redeeming quality of the website in this regard is that they don't slam a [[9gag|watermark]] on everything or openly claim that [[Ebaumsworld|the content is theirs]]. | |||
== History == | |||
'''Origins''' | |||
When all humor left on 9gag died, a large portion of the oldfags migrated to HUGELOL, hoping for a future full of [[Fun|laughter]], without having to deal with [[B|porn and goatse]]. This seemed like a good idea at first, and the site ran relatively smoothly for more than a year, but then things started going south. | |||
'''The Start Of The Downfall''' | |||
Unfortunately, at some point, the [[Jews|admins]] of the site realised that if they kicked out anyone posting [[Offended|offensive]] content, they could get better ad partners and get more [[Jewgold|jewgold]] as a result. After purging members who refused to delete their offensive content, including comments containing "heavily racist" text (or just weren't there at the time/didn't give a fuck), they proceeded to open [http://www.hiddenlol.com HIDDENLOL] as a form of dumping ground for all the content they didn't want on the main site so as to avoid internal raids. HIDDENLOL, at this time, is what most people from both communities think /b/ is like (or what /b/ [[m00t's GamerGate Sellout|was]] like). | |||
'''Need MOAR Jewgold''' | |||
Even after the purge that allowed them to get more money from ads, they implemented a [[Jew|donor]] system that allowed anyone to get their name and a part of their profile displayed in yellow on the site in addition to getting a special achievement listed on their user page. This was simply used to fuel the ego of many users, who thought that "donating" and then saying they did it to support the site would cause their [[E-penis|e-peen]] to grow. Some users however genuinely thought they were helping the site by doing this. Why anyone still donates is anyone's guess. | |||
'''Recent Events''' | |||
After several months of the users simply not giving a fuck about any of this anymore and still thinking HUGELOL could barely pay for its server fees, a question suddenly appeared; How come that with all these visits and donations, HUGELOL still barely affords its server fees? The answer was that it doesn't. HUGElOL's income was way above what the site admins said it was. When called out on their bullshit, the site admins proceeded to defend themselves with bullshit excuses and then ban a few users for good measure. | |||

Realising that what HUGELOL was had completely died, a disgruntled oldfag started his own site and proceeded to ask users to join so as to revive the community and bring good humor back. The site admins responded by banning this user along with another one for good measure in the traditional HUGELOL site admin fashion of unnecessarily banning users. After this happened, the other oldfags caught wind of it and called out the admins on their bullshit, and were promptly banned.

Revision as of 23:55, 24 December 2014
HUGELOL, also known as 9gag 2: Electric Boogaloo, is a site dedicated to humor and fun. Yes, the correct way to type the site's name is in all caps.
The Site Itself
The site's format is almost identical to 9gag's, with the main difference being that HUGELOL's main pages are devoted to "humor" while there are special pages for other types of content which only the admins can directly submit to. This includes a page for food. We are not shitting you. Aside from that, it has the same vote-based system for post scores that most sites of this type possess. Its other difference from 9gag are the user pages, which are distinctively worse.
The Userbase
Bots. Lots of bots. The HUGELOL admins actively maintain several bots to prevent people from realising that only a small minority of the content posted is actually posted by users, and therefore keep getting Jewgolds from their current ad partner, whatever poor company that might be at the time. The HUGELOL users exist in 4 varieties:
- The lurkers which lurk all day
- The keyboard warriors that create an arguement on every single post
- The posters which inevitably get to the front page because the users are as hungry for good content as they are for cock after being fed the worst shitposts known to man daily
- The repost police which go from post to post and write "repost" in all caps in the comments if they faintly remember seeing the post somewhere
The HUGELOL users fervently hate 9gag, although this is more because they are in denial of their own website's similarity to the cancer of the internet than because they have actual valid reasons to hate 9gag.
The Admins
In a far corner of the internet, one cunning jew's nose suddenly picked up the smell that jews love the most, the smell of opportunity to get more jewgold. 9gag was losing any shred of funny left in it and the users were looking for a way out. Putting his plan into motion, this particular jew put together a very simple website to attract users with the promise of funny content and freedom from the cancer. New members flowed in like cash to the jew's bank account. Now all he had to do was maintain the status quo while adding features to the website to keep getting jewgold. It is unknown if the jew works alone or if there are other admins, however it's unlikely he'd be willing to share any of his jewgold with other jews, so he may in fact simply have a few slaves working for pennies. So while the admins claim to try to keep unfunny content off the website as much as possible, they can't have any potential user escape their grasp, so they disallow unfunny content on the main pages, but made separate pages for anything you can imagine.
Content Sources
HUGELOL has always largely relied on stealing content. It doesn't matter where the content originates from. You'll find content from 9gag, tumblr, imgur and a dozen other websites. Nobody is safe from HUGELOL's rampant kleptomania. It doesn't matter if the person that made the content doesn't want it to end up anywhere but his webpage, it doesn't matter if he made the content to raise money for charity, it doesn't matter if he's trying to pay for his dying mother's cancer treatments, HUGELOL will take the content. The only redeeming quality of the website in this regard is that they don't slam a watermark on everything or openly claim that the content is theirs.
History
Origins
When all humor left on 9gag died, a large portion of the oldfags migrated to HUGELOL, hoping for a future full of laughter, without having to deal with porn and goatse. This seemed like a good idea at first, and the site ran relatively smoothly for more than a year, but then things started going south.
The Start Of The Downfall
Unfortunately, at some point, the admins of the site realised that if they kicked out anyone posting offensive content, they could get better ad partners and get more jewgold as a result. After purging members who refused to delete their offensive content, including comments containing "heavily racist" text (or just weren't there at the time/didn't give a fuck), they proceeded to open HIDDENLOL as a form of dumping ground for all the content they didn't want on the main site so as to avoid internal raids. HIDDENLOL, at this time, is what most people from both communities think /b/ is like (or what /b/ was like).
Need MOAR Jewgold
Even after the purge that allowed them to get more money from ads, they implemented a donor system that allowed anyone to get their name and a part of their profile displayed in yellow on the site in addition to getting a special achievement listed on their user page. This was simply used to fuel the ego of many users, who thought that "donating" and then saying they did it to support the site would cause their e-peen to grow. Some users however genuinely thought they were helping the site by doing this. Why anyone still donates is anyone's guess.
Recent Events
After several months of the users simply not giving a fuck about any of this anymore and still thinking HUGELOL could barely pay for its server fees, a question suddenly appeared; How come that with all these visits and donations, HUGELOL still barely affords its server fees? The answer was that it doesn't. HUGElOL's income was way above what the site admins said it was. When called out on their bullshit, the site admins proceeded to defend themselves with bullshit excuses and then ban a few users for good measure.
Shit Hits The Fan
Realising that what HUGELOL was had completely died, a disgruntled oldfag started his own site and proceeded to ask users to join so as to revive the community and bring good humor back. The site admins responded by banning this user along with another one for good measure in the traditional HUGELOL site admin fashion of unnecessarily banning users. After this happened, the other oldfags caught wind of it and called out the admins on their bullshit, and were promptly banned. After a while of this, the oldfags simply said "fuck it" and migrated to the new site.
Oops
The site admins failed to realise that the users they banned were the only ones that actually submitted decent content (that wasn't stolen) on a regular basis. Once they saw the content flow plummet, they proceeded to panic and start offering donator benefits to anyone that submitted good content regularly. However the damage was already done, and it took months and many post score riggings to restore the content flow, and even now half of it is posted by admin-sanctioned bots. Original content is now considered extinct on the site.
The Future?
Taking its current state into account, HUGELOL will soon either disintegrate or live on as a cancerous growth on the internet's ass, fueled by shitposts, bots and self-ingratiation.
Ways Of Trolling HUGELOL
- Any mention of Top Kek will drive the admins into a seething rage behind their desks, and you will promptly be banned. This is because of the site admins' inherent fear of pastries and lulz.
- Message random users and ask them if they want to buy some keks. The older the user, the better.
- Make a post saying the site is exactly like 9gag.
- Make a comment saying the site is exactly like 9gag.
- Post NSFW or racist content. When told to "post this stuff on HIDDENLOL", tell them to eat shit with a side of topkek.
- Comment "repost" in all caps on random posts.
- Repost something as soon as it has been submitted.
- Report random users, posts and comments for random shit.
- Announce you are doing a gore raid, proceed to do nothing.
- Make a post asking users to help with a raid, preferably something not involving NSFW or gore. The HUGELOL userbase are internet-masoschists and will most likely raid their own site.
HUGELOL's Relations With Other Sites
HUGELOL is best described as a hormonal teenager. It fervently hates its big brother, 9gag, while they are practically the same thing and does whatever it can to distance itself from it. One of the ways it does this is by attempting to emulate 4chan, the neighborhood's cool kid. This goes about as well as it does IRL. Like every semi-logical site on the intertubes, it also hates tumblr, but has no qualms about stealing content from there. Most sites that are somewhat aware of its existence simply laugh at it.
