Hello fellow Wikipedians, | |||
=="Features" and "Controversy" sections are redundant== | |||
It seems to me that the "Features" section is merely a summary of the "Controversy" section. Shouldn't it instead list some of the web site's regularly recurring ''features'', and not simply present information that is presented later on in a condensed fashion? I suggest that for the time being the "Features" section be removed until it can be rewritten. --] 02:56, 25 July 2006 (UTC) | |||

::Unbiased? You mean lie to make EBaum's World look better? The story is very clear. I don’t think there is some huge conspiracy going on between many internet forums to create animation, allow EBaum's to use it, and then claim it never happened. ] 18:43, 30 June 2006 (UTC) | |||

== External links modified == | ||
Hello fellow Wikipedians, | |||
I personally see little need for the section detailing that when eBaum rebrands images that it degrades the quality of them. Looking at the comparison of an original image and rebranded one, it's difficult to see a significant difference, and thus it would have done better for them to be bigger. However, I don't really see how much the section adds to the article, and it would probably benefit it to shorten it a little and integrate it into another part. ] 23:40, 28 March 2006 (UTC) | |||

Ebaum's users have hacked the YTMND forums again at http://forums.ytmnd.com/ , replacing the letter 'a' with a message about '_EBAUMS FORUMS OWNS U_' and a number of unidentifiable characters. The stylesheet has been removed, and the line dividing the signature from the main body of the post has been replaced with a pornographic image of two men having intercourse. After 10 seconds, every page forwards to forums.ebaumsworld.com. I'm not sure what proof you guys need to say that this sort of thing is happening, but it's happening right now if you want to go over and check. {{unsigned|82.39.145.64}} | |||

Ok. This is what that person was referencing. ] Since a forum can't be considered a "credible publication," I'm going to delete the section.] 06:03, 15 April 2006 (UTC) | |||

== Anything Good? == | |||
Is there anything good to say about eBaums World? I am finding it more and more difficult to find any site that have any positive comments towards this website. What's the deal? --] 01:30, 23 April 2006 (UTC) | |||
:The main reason that most people who are active enough on the internet to actually make a presence and voice their opinion for people to read are the people who frequent sites like ] or ]. EBaum's policy of 'it is easier to ask for forgivness than permission' has really riled these readers up (like myself). For that reason, it's hard to find anyone who posts on things like, say, Misplaced Pages discussion pages with much good to say about Ebaum. If you find someone who only knows Ebaum from word of mouth and is less internet savy (See - 10 year old girls and yuppies) they'll enjoy Ebaum for it's large archive of content in one place. --] 22:42, 23 April 2006 (UTC) | |||
::Of course, they'll only think that until they're told that all eBaum does is steal the content, and then probably join one of the three camps of opinion on him. And sadly, once you've visited the site many times, you become ensnared by the opinion that it's so wonderful, you feel threatened by those who want it to not be there. ...Gee, I guess psychology class ''did'' help... ] 01:43, 20 May 2006 (UTC) | |||
Anyways, yeah this is far from neutral. | |||
--] 05:41, 28 May 2006 (UTC) | |||
== Something that needs to be said == | |||
I know that Eric Bauman is not the most highly regarded person on the Internet today, but there is an obvious lack of effort in trying to keep this page neutral. The image of the main page with the advertisements and popups is blatantly biased and completely inappropriate. Just because there are advertisements on the site and this is a true statement does not make this OK. Why isn't the first sentence of the ] article, "Adolf Hitler was the leader of Nazi Germany and an oppressive racist responsible for the heartless slaughter of millions of Jews"? Yes, it's every bit true, but it's inconsistent with the policies of Misplaced Pages because it gives people a technically non-neutral impression. Of course, everybody who read the article would eventually realize that he was a sick monster, but that's only through presenting facts in a completely neutral way. | |||
I don't mean writing this article like "eBaum said X, but X is wrong because of Y"; you should say stuff like "eBaum claims X, but critics contest this because of Y". Misplaced Pages is a neutral enyclopedia. I know that we can all do better. ] 22:47, 28 May 2006 (UTC) | |||
:The screenshot ''is'' displaying the page with ads. It is correct to point out that part of the screenshot is ads and not part of the website, not to mention that the ads are the reason why Ebaum has gotten so much revenue off the site. It is not negative and is completely accurate to say that the site has a lot of ads. The supposedly non-NPOV things you are point out aren't even being put in to portray the site in a negative light. Nor are we going to water down facts as "claims". --] 00:39, 29 May 2006 (UTC) | |||
:The original screenshot (check the image history) was much cleaner and had no ads visible on it, but it was removed under claims that the image was inaccurate. So I took a screenshot with the advertisements. What you don't see is that the "Entrepreneuer" pop-up appeared four times, not just once as it appears in the screenshot. If you doubt me, go to the web site yourself. --] 03:02, 29 May 2006 (UTC) | |||
::I have no problems with ads but placing the pop-up at the bottom is biased. We would not do that with any of the millions of other sites that have pop-up ads. I have no problem with banners ads being displayed because they are part of the page... or mentioning that the site does open lots of pop-ups... but, they are not part of the site. ] ] 07:05, 1 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
The part edited out was not necessary or factual. | |||
I am going to edit out ''(humorously subtitled "Media For Dumbasses")'' It is unnecessary and not factual. | |||

--] 00:31, 1 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
The picture that used to be there wasn't a pop up but something that was built onto the front page, like a layer, that slides across from the side -inside- the window. If they don't wanna be depicted like that, take off that one ad and makes 1% less money and earn some credibility and not look like a porn site. <small>—The preceding ] comment was added by ] (] • ]) {{{2|}}}.</small> | |||

== Latest Change == | |||
Okay, the last change I made I deem worthy of change. The alligations of the Funbar containing spyware are false according to the link. I'm also trying to keep this site neutral. It is not neutral. And the people that claim they are just reporting facts don't even have arguments for eBaums actions. They are all against eBaums actions. Please do not revert to the old article. | |||

:From what I saw, he was sent the check without any notification. Then when he threatened with legal action, Eric Bauman said he won a "contest", offered him an additional $1000, and posted a quote making it look like he agreed to have it posted there. Alan also tried to send the money back. | |||
:Maybe you should go back to spamming siteadvisor.com. You're not fooling anyone. --] 04:07, 25 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
This is what I gather: eBaum took the flash. Alan threatened to sue (with the help of AlbinoBlackSheep). eBaum then gave Alan a grand total of $1250 for the flash. Alan took the money and said that eBaum had paid for it. eBaum put up a quote on the page from Alan saying he paid for it and he talked to Alan before the whole law suit thing started. Technically he did talk to Alan before the lawsuit but Alan told him that he couldn't have the flash so eBaum stole it. However, the quote made it sound like eBaum had permission before hand to post it which he did not. But since Alan took the cash he sold everyone out, everyone got pissed at him, and now he is trying to unsell out. It does look like eBaum removed the flash though ] 01:57, 27 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
==Current Event banner== | |||
What happened to the curret event banner (or whatever it's called) at the top of the Controversy section? Considering the recent developments in the Animator vs. Animation/Albino Blacksheep vs. eBaum's battle, it seems like this is still quite current and likely to keep changing. ] 00:54, 19 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
== YTMND / eBaums war? == | |||
What happened to the mention of the DOS attack that YTMND users launched against eBaums? That seems to have been covered up nicely. | |||
Y'know, when they pinged their chat and forums to death?--] 03:48, 21 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
:It should be mentioned. And let us not forget the DOS attack Ebaumsworld launched against SomethingAwful; after all, if we are going to mention such actions taken against Ebaumsworld, we must mention the DOS attacks they have launched.--{{unsigned|24.16.62.130}} | |||

Unless and until there are relibale secondary sources (i.e. outside eBaumsWorld forums and YTMND) this cannot go in. The irony of YTMND, masters of the copyvio soundtrack, accusing eBaums of copyright infringement is not lost on me :-) ] 10:31, 24 July 2006 (UTC) | |||
*Yes...There is one big difference though...its called "Image Origin" and "Sound Origin". That means that the original image and audio authors or source are given credit. Ebaums world has had a number of instances where the author was not given credit and instead had Ebaums infamous watermark pasted on it. This made it look like it was the work of the website and not the authors. Ebaums also have had a number of authors come out and say they did not submit their work to Ebaum's, did not consent it, and still didn't approve of it after the "theft". Ytmnd has never been accused of this by any authors. They have only been accused by retaliating Ebaum's users. If Ebaums is just like YTMND in theft, then why isnt YTMND being as openly criticized like Ebaums by both spectators and Authors alike?--] 19:24, 24 July 2006 (UTC)My Brother and Me = Best show ever | |||

**giving credit to source is a pretty minor thing under US law and you are pretty much required to do it but it provides you with sod all protection. For example is a pretty clear copyvio. The reason no one objects that most of the theft is from big companies or from random people with stuff on google images so no one cares (If I was really feeling board I'd send YTMND the standard set of failing to follow the GFDL notices).] 22:20, 24 July 2006 (UTC) | |||
::That's not the issue though, YTMND is not on trial. This is about how eBaum allegedly stole a long humorous sound file from someone else without giving proper credit. Attacking YTMND is not a way of proving eBaum's innocence. ] 16:53, 25 July 2006 (UTC) | |||
:I have to agree as well. Though YTMND is known for being a bit sycophantic in their crusade against eBaums, they do hold the high ground in this argument if you look into it. A proper citation is not needed as of yet, but will be if this drags on longer, especially since one will become available.

Wild Wild World of Batwoman?
Is this the same Eric Bauman whose letter was read on Mystery Science Theater 3000 at the end of the episode Wild Wild World of Batwoman? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.92.44.113 (talk) 19:34, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
Please fix a typo
"when the flash was posted on eBaum's World" - the trademark "Flash" requires a capital letter. 31.53.185.104 (talk) 00:15, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

"ZVUE vs eBaum's World" by Kaustic, Uploaded 02/03/2009
http://www.ebaumsworld.com/blogs/zvue-vs-ebaums-world/80531997/
I found this post which describes the sale of Ebaumsworld to ZVUE, the firing of its creator and staff, and the migration of its creator, former staff, and some devotees to ebaum.tv
Archive.org shows ebaum.tv existed in 2009 but in the same year moved to ebaumnation.com, which existed through Apr 2015.
Eric Bauman founded smash.com in 2014 and as of this writing it is active.
ebaumnation.com in 2015 redirected to smash.com but now redirects to funnyshirts.net

eBaum's World also features an old version of the N, the video game made by Metanet Software. Metanet claimed that they didn't gave permissions to Eric. Also, he doesn't mention in any moment that the game is made by Metanet.
