Talk:David Gonterman
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Oops. Sorry about that. Can someone restore the page (and my dignity?)--Hysterical Woman 00:52, 8 Jan 2006 (UTC)
This article is TL;DR. It needs half the text and twice the pictures. --Jacknstock 20:40, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
- I exponentially improved the article with a new picture demonstrating the sofisticated technique of "self insertion". This edit dedicated to Samsara. --KJK::Hyperion 14:22, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- I disagree; the wealth of information on Gonterman needs to be catalogued here, that the masses may know of it come the future.--Ike 18:34, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] His Wiki
His wiki is prime trolling ground. Although no one reads it. I just put the pain series on the front page (which had turned into a bel-air before I even got there) and did some pointless vandalism on some of the other pages. Probably too enthusiastic on my part. --Exploding Marionette 23:11, 21 July 2007 (CDT)
- UPDATE: Haha, it looks like he took the wiki down as opposed to reverting all the vandalism, probably because he didn't know how. Lulz. --Exploding Marionette 02:58, 3 August 2007 (CDT)
- I included his angst over the wiki in the article. --Exploding Marionette 05:07, 3 August 2007 (CDT)

http://comments.deviantart.com/4/1063802/500694135 - and while I'm at it, that Bitwize woman needs a foot up her arse. --StevenM 21:14, 6 September 2007 (CDT)
- Someone needs to inform him there is no longer porn on his ED article. It could be lulzy as that was his excuse for reporting TARTlets for linking to it --IckleBee buzz buzz 21:44, 6 September 2007 (CDT)
- Yeah, what's the deal with that? Gay self-gratification porn is totally appropriate for an article about Gonterman --KJK::Hyperion 17:48, 16 October 2007 (CDT)
[edit] Gonternovel status
I'm not entirely sure what the best way to do some of this stuff is since he's turned some of his shitty comics into shitty novels. I gave one of them a passing mention in the comic section since he never got very far on it, but the fact that he submitted it to a writing contest was pretty funny.
Anyway, Lost Boy Found has been completed for a while now and is available from LuLu as well as BitTorrent. It'd take some digging to find exactly what he said, but if I remember correctly, his logic was that people were going to pirate it, he might as well make it available like that.
Scarlet PI's book is out. Next up, he's revamping Blood and Metal. Only...it doesn't sound much better than it did to begin with. There just aren't any Sonic characters. --Trista 20:56, 26 November 2007 (CST)
[edit] Breaking down the Gonterfiction section?
I'm contemplating breaking down the Gonterfiction section like the Gontercomics section only since "Piasa Bird" is in fact still out there. (The version I found matches up with what I got digging through the Internet Archives of Really Bad Fan Fiction.) That one has some great quotes in it. --Trista 12:58, 10 December 2007 (CST)
- Go for it, totally. And if we need more random Gonter pictures to doll it up there are plenty on hand. Also you win 100 internets for finding a copy of Piasa Bird. A+++++++++ --IckleBee buzz buzz 13:38, 10 December 2007 (CST)
- Nice work with the organization. I keep distracting myself. Added info about "Blood and Metal" but it's actually a really dull series. It's still notable for being the source of what little popularity Davey-kins ever had. (Yeah, he had some. Go figure.) Blood and Metal Alpha was all that was ever posted on The Gonterman Shrine. Some other stories are in this ezine archive. They're zip files that someone really should unzip and put somewhere else. (At least the stuff that was written by Davey-kins. Some of it isn't.) I still felt inclined to include one of the wangstier excerpts. It was really hard to choose quotes from it. Mickey Mouse also makes an appearance later on in that story.
I'm not sure why my talent is for digging up ancient crap. I'm not even sure how I found that one to begin with. I just remembered how to find it again. :P --Trista 15:20, 14 December 2007 (CST)
[edit] The Works of TheGonterBeast
TheGonterBeast seems to have been banned and that was his second account. Oy. Well, I'll see if he resurfaces, but for the time being, I've archived his stuff here. I'm sure there's other good troll artwork out there. Most of what I've seen isn't nearly as interesting, though. --Trista 16:38, 16 January 2008 (CST)
[edit] Random lulz
I'm not sure how to fit this in anywhere, but going through Davey-kins' faves, I noticed he faved an image called, well, "Daveykins." He thought it was all about him. It's not, really. So...does that mean he just sits around and searches for his name?
Then there's this great comment on his Lost Boy Found Cover image. "dude! i love your fancomic about the homosexual love between peter pan and link from legend of zelda!" What makes it funnier is that Davey-kins is actually rational there. Wow!
--Trista 21:01, 17 January 2008 (CST)
I think more attention needs to be given to his lack of original ideas. When he's not recycling fan crap, he's recycling his own shit. He's planning to reintroduce Johnny Briz for the umpteenth time. (That character was unoriginal enough already.) The thing is, he thinks that's something to brag about. His front page on his DA page proclaims:
| —David Gonterman |
The fact that he spams his page with comments about his writing instead of using one of his blogs is another subject all together...

[edit] Gonterquotes
Needs more lulzy quotes. --CarlosLatuff 12:00, 26 January 2008 (CST)
- Maybe his tirade about gay people?--Trista 15:03, 26 January 2008 (CST)
Maybe this one about Muslims, with Gonterman threatening to "show them the real Great Satan" (himself) and blow up Allah or something. --CarlosLatuff 16:45, 28 January 2008 (CST)
[edit] Gonterwiki
"Wiki's closed" needs an explaination that he run a wiki on himself. --CarlosLatuff 16:43, 28 January 2008 (CST)
[edit] Rapidshit Please?
Gonterman needs the RAR treatment of his... "art" like that guy Sonichu.
[edit] WHAT HAPPEN
The main reason why I was so adamant in getting the ED to delete their page on me is related to the same reason why they find it so hard to get advertisers for ED: It is simply too acidic, too vulgar, and too offensive of a site. I'll say this until it sticks; you can make a site that chronicles Draemas and provide parody without descending into offensive materials the levels that ED has dived into. That's why almost 60% of the internet and A sizable chunk of DA--not just myself--show such a hatred to ED and those who support it.
And it isn't like I intend on wiping out every vestige of my earlier years off the internet. There's a Gonterman Shrine by JSP which I've long ago came to an agreement on, and sites like the Portal of Evil, MSTron, Commuter Barnacle, and so on wasn't as vocally (okay, textually) in your face as the ED is. (It's impossible to ignore a troll when he's at full volume at distances only Marine Drill Instructors are accustomed to.) They have their tube, I have mine, we get along nicely.
And promoting this bad rep of mine is something I might be toying with in the near future. You've probably heard of WhatPort80, a site being touted as a Work Safe version of ED. I might actually make an act of preemption and actually write the David Gonterman article there, that acknowledges the dirty water--with the necessary links and all--that passed under the bridge and keeps up to date on the current projects. That way, you won't have me arguing that a certain page that talks smack about me isn't 'my' page at all because I didn't write it.
