Beast's Fury

Multibrawlr: /* Development */

{{wikify}}
'''''Beast's Fury''''' was an [[indie]] [[2-D fighting game]] with a cast of hand drawn-animated [[anthropomorphic]] [[characters]]. Announced in 2013, the game was planned to launch on the [[Xbox 360]], [[PlayStation 3]], [[Ouya]], [[Android]], and [[iOS]] platforms.

Created by [[Ryhan Stevens]], the game was inspired by the fighting games ''Skullgirls'' and ''[[Bloody Roar]]''. Stevens collaborated on the project with several [[animator]]s, voice actors, [[musician]]s, [[programmer]]s, and developer Evil Dog Productions. The team ran crowdfunding campaigns on Kickstarter and Indiegogo to cover development costs. The project suffered from ambitious goals, poor budgeting, and a lack of developer interest.<ref name="Kinja">[https://web.archive.org/web/20201114050634/https://cubedm.kinja.com/when-crowdfunding-goes-wrong-beasts-fury-1711615748 When Crowdfunding Goes Wrong: Beast's Fury] page on kinja.com.

== Character obsession ==
=== Norbert Beaver ===
[[File:Beaversoup.jpg|thumb|right|''Beaver Soup'' cover]]
Since January, 2004, Bischop has had "[[W:Sexual attraction|sexual attraction]] and great love"<ref>[https://archive.org/details/TheNorbertBeaverObsession ''The Norbert Beaver Obsession Rev.2010''] PDF on the [[W:Internet Archive|Internet Archive]]. Retrieved 2010.</ref> for the [[character]] [[Norbert Foster Beaver]] from the [[W:Nickelodeon|Nickelodeon]] [[Animation|animated television series]] ''[[The Angry Beavers]]'', and kept an archive of thousands of screen-caps from the show until he abandoned the site.<ref>[http://furrypause.com/cartoons/angrybeavers/index.htm ''Angry Beavers Fansite''] on FurryPause.com. Retrieved June, 2014.</ref>

Bischop has constructed models of Norbert with [[W:Fimo|Fimo]] [[W:polymer clay|polymer clay]], built a a life-sized [[plush]] with a [[SPH|strategically-placed hole]]<ref>[http://johnofe.tumblr.com/post/88063926718/i-dont-think-theres-any-text-out-there-of-me ''JohnOfE''] on [[Tumblr]].

Dated October 31, 2007. Retrieved January 25, 2011</ref> He does amateur [[gay]] Angry Beavers [[art]].

==== ''Beaver Soup'' ====

Bischop also wrote [[fan-fiction]] about Norbert and ''Angry Beavers'',<ref>[http://www.archive.org/details/DavidWrightAndNorbertBeaver ''David Wright and Norbert Beaver''] PDF on the [[W:Internet Archive|Internet Archive]]. Retrieved ?.</ref> notably '''''Beaver Soup'''''. ''Beaver Soup'''s premise is modeled after ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]'' in that [[cartoon]] characters exist alongside real-life [[human]]s and [[animal]]s. The story details how Bischop imagines a meeting between himself and Norbert Beaver would occur and is filled with graphic descriptions of kidnapping, rape, and mutilation.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20130619110947/http://johnofe.com/beaversoup/index.htm ''Beaver Soup - The Novelette''] page on JohnOfE.com.

=== Other characters ===

Bischop has had similar obsessions with [[Brian Griffin]] from ''[[Family Guy]]'', and [[The Dog]] from ''[[Footrot Flats]]''. He spends time drawing them, and as with Norbert, has built Fimo<ref>[https://inkbunny.net/poolview_process.php?pool_id=17247 ''Fino Models''] page on [[Inkbunny]].

Bischop also sports a tattoo of The Dog on his right upper-arm and Brian Griffin on his stomach.

Bischop's obsession with The Dog (being a [[feral]] [[dog]]), and an admitted tendency towards thoughts of [[bestiality]], gave JohnOfE the fear that he might cross the line from thoughts to acts. As a result, around mid-2010, he sought the help of a [[W:psychiatrist|psychiatrist]] and briefly underwent voluntary [[W:Chemical castration|chemical castration]] through doses of [[W:cyproterone|cyproterone]].

== Leaving the fandom and back ==

In August 2017, Bischop (as JohnOfE) deactivated or blanked all of his [[W:social media|social media]] sites and online [[art gallery|art galleries]], while his personal website is now [[W:Cybersquatting|cybersquatted]]. This was after a decision to retire the JohnOfE [[W:Online identity|persona]].{{cn}}

Bischop eventually returned to the [[fandom]] under the new "Bishop" handle, starting up with new art galleries and social media sites.

Created by [[Ryhan Stevens]], the game was inspired by the fighting games ''Skullgirls'' and ''[[Bloody Roar]]''.

(mostly Internet-based) people and events that its members find interesting or "[[W:http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/lulz|lulzy]]".

==History==

Encyclopedia Dramatica (originally also known as '''encyclopediadramatica.com''') is founded by '''Girlvinyl''' in December 2004 as a compendium of internet personalities, events and memes in response to [[W:Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mediacrat|the deletion of the Mediacrat vanity page]] on [[Wikipedia]],{{cn}} created by [[LiveJournal]] [[e-celebrity]] [[W:User:Jameth|Jameth]] (who used to be an honorary [[administrator]] on the site).{{cn}}

=== End of ED.com ===

In April 2011, ED.com's owners redirected encyclopediadramatica.com to a replacement site, [https://web.archive.org/web/20130929053416/http://ohinternet.com/Main_Page Oh Internet], a new website dedicated to documenting Internet culture while remaining [[W:Not safe for work|SFW]] (safe for work). Girlvinyl stated:

{{Q|Shock for shock’s sake is old at this point and we’re looking forward to the future and how things are evolving … when you put user experience first, the language becomes highly important and that’s what we’ve done.}}

'''Encyclopedia Dramatica (.ch)''' was created by users and former administrators<ref>[http://www.dailydot.com/culture/encyclopedia-dramatica-returns/ ''Encyclopedia Dramatica's seething satire is back''] article on [http://www.dailydot.com/ The daily Dot].

In October 2013, OhInternet was closed after vandals targeted it.

=== ED.ch troubles and domain loss ===

ED.ch went offline after the site's founder, [[W:LulzSec#Law_enforcement_response|Ryan Cleary]], was arrested for alleged affiliation to [[W:LulzSec|LulzSec]], the [[troll]] hacker group,<ref>[http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2011/jun/22/ryan-cleary-charged-lulzsec-hacking ''Teenager Ryan Cleary charged over LulzSec hacking''] article on [[W:The Guardian|The Guardian]].

In March of 2012, encyclopædiadramatica.ch suffered a brief downtime due to renewal complications with the domain registrars in Switzerland. While the database was secured, the site was not able to be accessed until '''encyclopediadramatica.se''' was purchased. Since then, encyclopædiadramatica.se is still working with the registrars to re-obtain the .ch domain.<ref>[http://forum.encyclopediadramatica.rs/threads/encyclopedia-dramatica-is-now-encyclopediadramatica-se.7344/ Encyclopedia ''Dramatica is now encyclopediadramatica.se''] thread on the [http://forum.encyclopediadramatica.rs/ Encyclopedia Dramatica (.rs) forums].

On June 27, 2011, the ED.ch forums were hacked again, and the email addresses of every registered member were posted to [[W:Pastebin|Pastebin]] and published in a blog owned by [[W:Google|Google]] and [[Wikipedia]] critic [[W:Daniel Brandt|Daniel Brandt]] entitled ''[http://josephevers.blogspot.com Encyclopedia Dramatica: There is no Joseph Evers]''.

Photos and personal data of some of the more prominent users were also revealed ([[W:Dox|Doxed]]), particularly user [[Zaiger]].{{cn}} Among other things, logs from the ED [[IRC]] channel that showed users in a negative light were posted.{{cn}}

=== ED.se domain loss ===

On September 13, 2013, encyclopædiadramatica.se went off-line,{{clarify}}{{cn}} returning a few days later under its prior Spanish based mirror domain, '''encyclopædiadramatica.es'''.

=== ED.es domain loss ===

On October 1, 2014, the encyclopediadramatica.es domain ceased functioning,<ref>[https://twitter.com/ED_Updates/status/517430638509453312 Encyc Dramatica æ on Twitter: "ED is down at the moment.

Retrieved July 3, 2020.</ref> returning back up as a static front page.

=== ED.wiki and ED.online ===

On December 13, 2020, due to unknown reasons, Encyclopædia Dramatica now directs two different top-level domain names: the .wiki version founded in January 2020 by Stellmach and the '''.online''' version founded in December 5, 2020, by an unknown party.{{cn}} The domain name '''.xyz''', created on September 2020, redirects to the .online domain.

* Presenting an article as encyclopedic, while delivering satirical commentary and criticism
* Purposeful misinformation

=== Images ===

Encyclopedia Dramatica contains a large amount of [[pornography|pornographic]] and shock images, including advertisements on the sidebars that featured mostly [[adult]] content.

== Controversy ==
=== Drama ===

The most common criticism of Encyclopedia Dramatica is that its purpose of documenting drama often resulted in the promotion of drama, be it through invasions, pranks, reposting of sensitive information, or the very existence of an article on the site.

=== Copyright ===

The sensitive information that appeared in ED articles is typically gathered from long-forgotten, obscure corners of the internet, and is usually upsetting to the subject, to the point of legal threats and action.{{cn}} Encyclopedia Dramatica relies on the [[W:Fair use|fair use exception]] clauses of [[W:Copyright law of the United States|United States copyright law]] as a defense. Their [[Arbchat]] procedure{{clarify}} was the sole method of information removal and revision that does not involve the legal system.

The website states that all content contributed is irrevocably "licensed for infinite use to Encyclopedia Dramatica, in electronic and all other media."{{cn}}

=== Privacy ===

The site often revealed personal information about ordinary people such as names, addresses, and phone numbers if found ([[W:Doxing|Doxxing]]).

== Encyclopedia Dramatica and furries ==

The ED.rs site contains almost all old ED.com, ED.ch and ED.es articles documenting the [[furry fandom]] and [[furry]]-related topics. The ED.rs "[[Furfag|FurFaggotry]] Portal"<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.rs/Portal:Furfaggotry Portal:FurFaggotry] on [http://encylclopediadramatica.rs/ Encyclopedia Dramatica (.rs)].

The site's material on furries is generally unflattering, and a great deal is intentionally offensive. However, not all of its editors and administrators are [[anti-furry]], and ED claims{{cn}} it only makes broad generalizations of the [[furry fandom]] and portrays furries as [[W:Paraphilia|sexual deviant]]s because it is more humorous and interesting to read about something scandalous and shocking.{{cn}}

Furries are generally not picked out from editing as long as they follow the site's policies and refrain from vandalizing..<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.rs/Template:Furry/Welcome Furry "Welcome" template] on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.rs). Dated September 14, 2012.

The original ED.com was often used as staging ground for massive [[troll]]ing or [[W:Spamming|spamming]] crusades against a certain furry and sites deemed particularly perverted or offensive,{{cn}} and ED 'raids' had forced several furries to abandon accounts on [[Youtube]] and [[DeviantArt]] due to repeated spam barrages.{{cn}} Notable victims of this practice are [[Straitfox|InSaNe-REYNARD]] and [[Snapesnogger]], both artists who were driven off DeviantArt.{{cn}}

Beast's Fury

Multibrawlr: Fixed wrong archive URL.

{{game-stub}}

'''Beast's Fury''' was an indie 2-D fighting game created, owned, and led by Australian game developer Ryhan Stevens. Announced in 2013, the game featured a cast of [[anthropomorphic]] [[characters]] and a hand drawn-animated art style. It was planned to launch on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Ouya, Android, and iOS platforms.

Stevens collaborated on the project with several animators, voice actors, musicians, programmers, and Montreal-based game developer Evil Dog Productions. The team sought crowdfunding to raise money for development, but despite running several campaigns and touting guest characters as stretch goals, the project struggled due to ambitious goals, poor budgeting, and a lack of developer interest. Stevens and Evil Dog programmer Marco Arsenault’s negative reactions to criticism also sparked controversy.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20201114050634/https://cubedm.kinja.com/when-crowdfunding-goes-wrong-beasts-fury-1711615748 When Crowdfunding Goes Wrong: Beast's Fury] page on kinja.com.

Retrieved 2010.</ref> for the [[character]] [[Norbert Foster Beaver]] from the [[W:Nickelodeon|Nickelodeon]] [[Animation|animated television series]] ''[[The Angry Beavers]]'', and kept an archive of thousands of screen-caps from the show until he abandoned the site.<ref>[http://furrypause.com/cartoons/angrybeavers/index.htm ''Angry Beavers Fansite''] on FurryPause.com. Retrieved June, 2014.</ref>

Bischop has constructed models of Norbert with [[W:Fimo|Fimo]] [[W:polymer clay|polymer clay]], built a a life-sized [[plush]] with a [[SPH|strategically-placed hole]]<ref>[http://johnofe.tumblr.com/post/88063926718/i-dont-think-theres-any-text-out-there-of-me ''JohnOfE''] on [[Tumblr]].

Dated October 31, 2007. Retrieved January 25, 2011</ref> He does amateur [[gay]] Angry Beavers [[art]].

==== ''Beaver Soup'' ====

Bischop also wrote [[fan-fiction]] about Norbert and ''Angry Beavers'',<ref>[http://www.archive.org/details/DavidWrightAndNorbertBeaver ''David Wright and Norbert Beaver''] PDF on the [[W:Internet Archive|Internet Archive]]. Retrieved ?.</ref> notably '''''Beaver Soup'''''. ''Beaver Soup'''s premise is modeled after ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]'' in that [[cartoon]] characters exist alongside real-life [[human]]s and [[animal]]s. The story details how Bischop imagines a meeting between himself and Norbert Beaver would occur and is filled with graphic descriptions of kidnapping, rape, and mutilation.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20130619110947/http://johnofe.com/beaversoup/index.htm ''Beaver Soup - The Novelette''] page on JohnOfE.com.

=== Other characters ===

Bischop has had similar obsessions with [[Brian Griffin]] from ''[[Family Guy]]'', and [[The Dog]] from ''[[Footrot Flats]]''. He spends time drawing them, and as with Norbert, has built Fimo<ref>[https://inkbunny.net/poolview_process.php?pool_id=17247 ''Fino Models''] page on [[Inkbunny]].

Bischop also sports a tattoo of The Dog on his right upper-arm and Brian Griffin on his stomach.

Bischop's obsession with The Dog (being a [[feral]] [[dog]]), and an admitted tendency towards thoughts of [[bestiality]], gave JohnOfE the fear that he might cross the line from thoughts to acts. As a result, around mid-2010, he sought the help of a [[W:psychiatrist|psychiatrist]] and briefly underwent voluntary [[W:Chemical castration|chemical castration]] through doses of [[W:cyproterone|cyproterone]].

== Leaving the fandom and back ==

In August 2017, Bischop (as JohnOfE) deactivated or blanked all of his [[W:social media|social media]] sites and online [[art gallery|art galleries]], while his personal website is now [[W:Cybersquatting|cybersquatted]]. This was after a decision to retire the JohnOfE [[W:Online identity|persona]].{{cn}}

Bischop eventually returned to the [[fandom]] under the new "Bishop" handle, starting up with new art galleries and social media sites.

Beast's Fury

2020-12-19T19:32:59Z

Multibrawlr: Added mention that various programmers worked with Ryhan Stevens on the project.

{{game-stub}}

'''Beast's Fury''' was an indie 2-D fighting game created, owned, and led by Australian game developer Ryhan Stevens. Announced in 2013, the game featured a cast of [[anthropomorphic]] [[characters]] and a hand drawn-animated art style. It was planned to launch on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Ouya, Android, and iOS platforms.

Stevens collaborated on the project with several animators, voice actors, musicians, programmers, and Montreal-based game developer Evil Dog Productions. The team sought crowdfunding to raise money for development, but despite running several campaigns and touting guest characters as stretch goals, the project struggled due to ambitious goals, poor budgeting, and a lack of developer interest. Stevens and Evil Dog programmer Marco Arsenault’s negative reactions to criticism also sparked controversy.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20201114050634/https://cubedm.kinja.com/when-crowdfunding-goes-wrong-beasts-fury-1711615748 When Crowdfunding Goes Wrong: Beast's Fury] page on kinja.com.

After a failed last-ditch IndieGoGo campaign, ''Beast's Fury'' was cancelled in January 2016.
