Jaziek Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 http://blog.ebaum.tv/2009/01/welcome.html All, As you may have heard our parent company (ZVUE) has decided to let myself and the rest of my team go. We have been running eBaum's World for 10+ years so this is a very sad time for all of us. Without us, I am sure the site will not run nearly as smoothly anymore since there is a brand new team running it and they have no idea what they are doing. Please do not email me with complaints about eBaum's world or that they are featuring the same content. And don't be fooled, they are continuing to post content in my name and other previous users/staff on the site to make people think we are still there. I assure you it is not any of us. We can all now be found here! The exciting news is that we have some big plans and ideas for eBaum.TV that will be rolled out over the next few days/weeks. I appreciate every one of you for your loyalness and support. Stay tuned! ...karmas a [bleep] aint it? anyway, are we happy or sad about this? I've gotta admit the first thing I thought was "Who are we gonna blame now?!". Guess theres still some anon left in me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLancer Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 What was EBaumsworld? First it was a fun site where you could browse user submitted content.. After maybe a year or 2.. A site that took flash videos and soundboards from other sites & branded them "copyrighted" by eBaumsworld, and used them as original content. Not that it wasn't a pretty good compilation of especially soundboards, but they were outright stealing intellectual property and selling ad space while displaying it. I had no sympathy for them even when they were being constantly harassed/DDoS'ed last year. I'd bet Eric Bauman couldn't really care less about the site shutting down even if he created the site... He's already become a millionaire thanks to it. He wont even need to work again for the rest of his life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
