YouChewPoop

YouChewPoop was the former community portal for youtubepoop.com, yet it later became a site unto itself after Conrad Slater retired as administrator during the shenanigans surrounding Planet Freedom. Conrad Slater bought the domain name because he thought it was funny. (He was wrong.)

To this day people claim to be a little grossed out by the term YouTube Poop so the idea of actually eating Poop must surely conjure such imagery to give reason to quit making or watching Poop altogether and instead turn their attention to re-dubs, bad slideshows, AMVs, Vlogging, and other kinds of YouTube Pollution. Indeed, several people have considered renaming the website - and even YouTube Poop in general - but so far, none have been successful.

The YouChew Festival will be held from March 21, 2010 to April 6, 2010, celebrating the website's second and current incarnation's anniversary, and the community as a whole's third anniversary.

The Site

YouChewPoop comprises three main parts, with some other additional elements. By far the most active part of the site is the Forum, which has been called the heartbeat of the YouChew community, as it is where the most communication takes place. The News Page, also called the Front Page provides semi-professional as well as outright unprofessional news coverage of site events as well as reviews of media. Finally, the site also contains the Chewiki; a place to learn about Youtube Poop and memes; where you are right now.

The News Page

Main Article: YCP News Office

The News Page is controlled most directly by RabbitSnore, the current Editor-in-Chief of the YouChew News Staff. He and his editors lead the site's team of writers and attempt to provide enjoyable and informative pieces of writing for the viewers of the front page.

Conrad Slater created the News Page and was the first contributor of articles, the first of them chronicling the site's creation and development.

The Forum

With several hundred regular users, the Forum is the most active place on the site. "The Forum" has been used to describe two discussion boards: the first incarnation, which used Lussumo Vanilla software; and the current incarnation, which uses PHPBB3. The Vanilla forums are still [youchewpoop.com/archive archived;] helpful for reference, research, or just laughs.

Conrad Slater was the first administrator and moderator of the forum, as well as its creator. Following his administration, the current administration - led by Thereisnospork303 - took over following the Planet Freedom incident.

The Site Boards

Conrad originally intended the forums as a place where poopers could engage in creative discussion about the visual medium of Youtube Poop. Along the way, however, the forums also spawned additional sections where people could talk about art, TV shows, and many other subjects. As you can see below, the YouChewPoop forums certainly contain a wide variety of subjects to chat and discuss about.

Forum Center

YouTube Poop

• The Poop Showroom - Show off your own poops and get some compliments to boost your confidence, or constructive criticism to help you improve your work's quality.

Media Center

• Computer and Video Games - Chat about games - old, new, or upcoming - and your opinions on them.
• Film, Television, and Videos - Talk about movies, Internet videos, and rant about Cartoon Network's latest shows. Or just deal with CN's new shows.

• Writing and Literature - Post a story you're working around and get praise and criticism like a Poop. Read other people's literature, and even discuss about books in general.

En Grande

It's also quite a little shindig where the peeps and the gents can shimmy all around up on each other, before you get busted by the po-man-chu in the white baron cap. Also known as SnabbitRore, the ultimate king of swing, the jungle V.I.P, and the local solid rabbit. Nobody knows about the influx of news from the news, or if the newcomers are really just bringers. Outside and all that, no one could really tell from what we see around there, except the Sonic things and all the threads with made by the Sonic things and also some other things, not always Sonic. COMBOS.

Also, it's the website that this very wiki is hosted on.

• 99% of the viewers of this page have absolutely no clue what this section is talking about, which makes it even more awesome.
