Excuse me what the fuck. Urban Dictionary has a couple of mostly accurate entries, but that's not enough.

Jokes aside, it's funny because many pages cite or mention it as a reliable source.

I've read an article about the Codex in the New York Times, it said the forum is a budding flower. OP? Who the hell would want to read about the Codex on the Wiki? I mean, what?

It had a long journey to recovery after what DeHippo pulled.
What happened ? I only remember that for some time ED was losing its hosting every other month, but really never knew nor cared why. I assumed this was some stupid inter-*chan politics.

She tried to turn the site into a sanitised PG-13 knowyourmeme clone.

She pulled it without any warning and junked all the content in the process. People managed to recover most of the articles via archive sites, though a lot of the images and videos were lost.

She claimed there was some potential legal danger for her in handing the archives to someone. That may have been a legitimate legal concern for her, but she could have easily handed the archives to any of the senior mods and it wouldn't have been provable in any way, as the status of the content was never on record anyway.

What's more likely is that she hoped she could attract ED's contributors to her new venture ohInternet by making ED seem unrecoverable.

Trying to make ED family-friendly. Of all places. What an idiot.

On other good news, the Uncyclopedia is also back.

A spiteful gossip site was created by a seething fat woman, yeah that checks out.

Each based Codexer is worth ten decline faggots, so there were actually 2.980 codexers online.
