    From Neil Cicierega, the creator of Animutations, Potter Puppet Pals and the Yodelling Clowns, and Something Awful forum member AltF4 comes this thrilling expose on Ebaums World.

    It says everything I feel about EBW...

    WITH A CATCHY TUNE!

    Edit: This post now with 100% more correctly spelled author names.

    EBW still beats Newgrounds. :p

    Quite a catchy song, though, I like. :)

    Yeah man nothing like stealing others work and making money off of it :cool:

    Let me put it this way: if I put a Nephilim_X watermark on all of your Air avatars, the ones YOU made, gave you no credit, ignored your requests to remove them and then got money, would that be fair?

    My error, I was unaware that EBW stole content until recently. However NG is still one of the crappiest sites on the net, in my opinion.

    Well, let's just say they both suck and be done with it. :p

    I saw something in the papers today that said a file sharing site got deleted and hoped it was eBauns World but it wasn't. Ohwell.

    Quit bashing NG, they have some good things there. Albinoblacksheep on the other hand.....only one for me but most of you don't like it so that makes it none. Albinoblacksheep is the one to bash. Remember the Demented Cartoon movie? They host that. They also host this.

    I am entitled to my opinion. Everything I've ever personally seen on NG, save for one single flash several years ago, has been, in my opinion, utter, useless garbage. Now, I haven't seen everything on NG, nor do I want to. I've simply got better things to do with my time than to waste it on that site.

    How dare you trash Kikkoman. He is the super cool hero up power sauce excellence.

    At least Ebaums hasn't tarnished the legend of the great soy sauce crusader. Thank god for small favors.

    Wow, catchy tune. We finally know that his name was Eric Bauman. Someone said it was a HER and her name was Erica Baum. Interesting...

    Sounds like a war has started. By the looks of things Ebaum has been taking media from SA, simply smearing thier logo on it, and calling it thier own. SA fought back and now Ebaum tried be cute by doing something similar.

    I think it's funny that SA and Interflop have enough of a following to shut down Ebaum for a short period of time, but Ebaum's following is so weak the only way they can fight back is to inline link.

    I stand behind the hand grenade. Down with E-bastage!!

    That, I can agree with. Something Awful isn't all that interesting to me, but at least they don't steal.

    Go SA! :p

    I've never heard of "inline linking" as a term, but what Ebaum did was also known as a DDoS Attack... which is illegal.
