Part 1: Memes

~The #Gorse

Spoiler: Warning: large image

Description: The gorse, aka the unicow, is a being of great magic, and also Salted's mother. It's mystical udders grant eternal life. Their numbers used to be few, but in recent times, they have begun to multiply and run rampant across the province, causing mischief for players and citizens alike. They are very shy creatures, and flee when approached.

The first "Gorse," spotting was reported in this thread, which has since been locked. The term was brought back however by mod Moe_Ronickah, when the gorse was spotted once more in a GitHub report, which is shown in his recent thread here.

Whether or not you believe in the gorse, it serves as a majestic reminder of the power of shitposts and memes. Bless the gorse.

~Corkus (Thx @DirtyDoge )

Description: The greatest Province ever, hands down. Corkus>Gavel+Fruma+Dern+Wynn.

A province originating from the General Suggestions box a long time ago, brought back by the admins as a joke province, often used by community members on Province of Dern/Fruma theory posts in a sarcastic or joking manner. However, there are some who believe Corkus is actually a real province, causing some confusion in certain areas of the Forums.

EDIT: CORKUS IS CONFIRMED, MEME STATUS=CONFIRMED HYPE HYPE HYPE

But for real, Corkus is now confirmed by canon lore, though now as a technologically advanced island controlled by Fruman separatists.

~Gavel: A Province of Wonder and Magic


Original Pic made by: @Omarzx22

Description: An early joke during the development of Gavel by members of the community (remember, people knew about Gavel for over a year before it was released), which displays a purposely poorly made assembly of random blocks, with the caption reading: "GAVEL: A province filled with WONDER and MAGIC."

Fun fact: There is a Dern edition of the meme for all you memers who want to start the Dern Hype train. You can find it here.

~Greatfuk (@Oryx)

Description: The mighty @PillowPet made a grammar mistake, and the Greatfuk was born. For a short period of time it roamed the Forums, spawning this shitpost and profile post comments of great disease. Although short lived, it was a gud meme.

The original Greatfuk:


~Blame Jumla

Spoiler: Warning: large image

Description: Another early meme, older than Wynncraft itself, having migrated from the CraftedMovie server. Used in a bad situation where Jumla is totally not to blame, but where posting anything related to "Blame Jumla," gets likes. For instance:

Chunk errors? Blame Jumla.

Gavel's not out? Blame Jumla.

Salted is not edible? Blame Jumla.

9/7/15? Blame Jumla.

~10 Chars...

Description: The common Sh*tposters biggest enemy, and a protector against spam, the legendary 10 character limit! Due to this function, posts with under 10 individual characters cannot be posted, which prevents large scale spamming of a single character on pages.

Although some tried to cheat the limit, a new Forum rule now prohibits this, forever disabling the use of the term "K," as a thread response.

Part 2: Quotes/Phrases

~@ Whispers To You: Moin (@ShadowMage1)

Description: When the 2016 Hallowynn update was pushed, adding numerous features as well as the notoriously bugged (but excellent) new Hallowynn Quest (A Grave Mistake), an interesting glitch occurred where the text "@ Whispers to you: moin" would appear in the chat. Many of these instances can be found here, on a thread by Forumer @Potateau. The phrase quickly turned into a joke mocking the absurdity of the term "Moin," and resulted in @Headset_O, the "Moinerator," getting alert spammed by taggers. Rip.

Fun fact: Moin is actually a real word, meaning "hello" or "goodbye" in some languages. Information on that can be seen here.

~"An Hero!"

Description: An accidentally misspelled version of, "A Hero." First appearing on the forums in the thread J6 Was An Hero (a parody of this) back in December 2015, where the thread creator, @JohnDSi, to commemorate the fallen J6, an real hero. The phrase was brought up again in another thread as well, and has been used in a variety of ways elsewhere.

Press F to pay respects

Not so fun fact: "An hero" wasn't invented by Wynncraft's community, as mentioned above, it originated from a much... darker, and trollolling source. In other words, 4chan.

~#PrayForChangeblog

Description: A short lived hashtag used in response to a delayed Gameplay update changeblog (For real it was only a few days >.>), deployed in ways ranging from profile comments to entire shitposts. A small meme, but a decent one nevertheless. Anyways, the changeblog came out shortly after (Prayers work sometiems :D ), so anyone who was hoping to make a new shitpost will have to wait until the next update...

~"Soon™"

Description: At some point in Gavel's development, some forum lurker decided to ask Salted when Gavel was coming out, to which he received the ever quoted, drama inspiring, bone tingling, steak grilling answer of: "Soon™." Afterwards, the quote was used forever more as a response to those who asked for Gavel release dates, usually in a sarcastic or humorous manner. If you have ever seen a most dapper gentleman, during the Pre-Gavel phase asking, "Wen dos Gavl com?" you'd sure as HECK certainly see at least one other responding with an equally intelligent, "Soon™ 10 chars."

Now that Gavel's out, I suppose the phrase is ded. Thus begins the age of...

Eventually™

~"Slated, Grolan/Grain"


Description: "Derp," versions of Admins Salted and Grian. At one point very popular with lurkers on Salted and Grians forum walls. Even Jumla had one at one point, but has since been lost to time... joomlu anyone?

~"Developers" (Thx @ShadowMage1™)



Description: A phrase chanted by scrublords on the eve of the Gavel Content team awards ceremony. Builders, mods, GMs, and even the commenters on the stream took part in a massive chant to spam Grian, and the phrase lived on in our hearts, which resulted in more than a few lobby spam attacks.

Here's a video of the original stream spam chat (thx @Gustaf) . Bask in its beauty:



~"Remove Kebab" (Thx @JohnDSi)



Description: A short lived joke, during the period of which all kebabs were removed from the premises, and the removal unit was established. The effects of this can be seen here in the shoutbox (pictures courtesy of @SpadeZ1). Additionally introduced in the WynnForums by scrublord @IgbarVonSquid™ at 3:23 in this vid (Thx @Aeon):



Fun fact: To find out moar, visit the remove kebab page at le KnowYourMeme, right here.

~"Figt me I rek u" (Thx @Aeon)

(Pic by @JohnDSi)

Description: A common phrase uttered often by Detlas lurkers, Province wandering duelers, and powerful noobs everywhere. If someone ever tells you this in game, be ready to respond with an equally intelligent, "K," then rekt thos scrubs in 1v1 Winnkreft kombat.

The meme itself entered Wynncraft's Community through a flame war on Wynncraft's old Forums, when a mod, @PhoenixJHyde, noticed it composed almost completely of the rather intelligent five words: "Figt me I rek u." Soon after the phrase spread across the Forums like wildfire, accompanied by Phoenix's profile picture (Thanks @JohnDSi)

~Nicefind.avi (Thx @SuperMatt11)

Early in the fall of 2015, moderator and YouTuber Igbarvonsquid uploaded a video titled "Nicefind.avi," which was meant to jokingly ridicule the many easter egg threads that clogged the Wynncraft Forums section. The original version is now unlisted, and can be found here:

Warning: Profanity
https://youtu.be/f74q6BZpJkg

The video was never intended for excessively negative purposes, but shortly after it was posted, many Forumers began using it as a put down against Easter egg posters. Pretty soon about every alive easter egg thread had at least one Nicefind.avi video, which sparked some arguments about the morals of using the video in such a way. Since then, Igbar has released a less edgy version, which can be seen below:





Part 3: Forum Culture and History

~9/7/15, a wipe that will go down... in infamy

Description: Probably the most infamous single event in Forums history. Occurred when a mess-up resulted in the wipe of every last Wynncraft Forums post in every single Forum. Even though profile pages, likes, and some message counts were spared, the damage done was insurmountably large, with thousands and thousands of pages lost of lore, art, and Mulars Data Files. Thankfully, the efforts of Wynncraft's community helped rebuild the Forums to where it is today. Thanks Forums!

~Kya Doki Doki Grian Senpai (@DirtyDoge)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aARk-DZXBXs

Description: Wynncraft's very own anime, starring the banku squad, the Tantagonist, and Gri Gri Senpai. The short lived anime was produced by mod @Oculus27 probably out of sheer boredom and insanity (Drugs might've been involved). The plot follows banku on his journey through Wynncraft High School, on a quest to be noticed by the beautiful Grian. He is thwarted however by the evil Tantagonist, who plots to destroy him and the innocent banku squad (mean :( ). As of right now, only 2 episodes have been produced, starring forumers like Sean-Thomas and Mular5.

~Wynntheory/Wynntheories (Thx @SwordOfSkies)

Description: A once incredibly popular genre of Wynnforums posts which sparked interest in making theories around the more complex (and less complex) parts of Wynncraft's in game lore. The term "Wynntheory," was coined by former mod @SteelXawesum, who made the first "Wynntheory" (though he wasn't the first person to create a Wynncraft based theory).

The official banner of WynnTheory, coined by Steel, and used extensively by theorists back in the day can be found here (Thx @CptShroom):



~Legio Praetoria (Thx @SwordOfSkies)

Description: A matter of months after the winter 2014 Guild update, a powerful alliance of the guilds The Nethers Ascention, Knights of Valor, Imperial, and Kangronomicon, arose, known as Legio Praetoria. This alliance proved determined, deadly, and undefeatable in battle, and within a month or so, they had taken over the entire Province of Wynn in guild wars, holding it with a steel fist. Any other guild before them was crushed into the dirt, none could stand against their might. Some called them order, others called them oppressors.

As you might expect, the takeover caused a lot of arguments (which even I was a part of at any given time) over the legality in game of such an action. So many guilds and alliances formed against them with the sole purpose of Legio Praetoria's (or simply Legio's) destruction. Eventually however, the alliance crumbled by itself, and the world was split once again between many small un-unified factions, but the legacy of the alliance would last on in the hearts of all those who had fought with it or against it...

until 9/7 and guilds breaking lol


Fun Fact: Legio Praetoria has its own website (long inactive), showing the pride of its high level elite. Right here.

~The Hype Train (Thx @MinerDwarf222)

Spoiler: WARNING: Large Image

Though the concept of a HYPE train wasn't created by the Wynncraft community, it was used extensively during a certain period of Gavel's middle-late development, primarily after Admin Grian created the "Gavel Hype Train" thread. The term would be extensively and metaphorically used to describe Gavel Hype.

For instance, when Gavel came out: "THE GAVEL HYPE TRAIN IS RUNNING INTO THE GATES AT FULL FORCE." Or before when Gavel hype slowed: "The hype train is losing steam!"

For dank hype train, go to 2:00 in the vid below (thx @Nemrekt). Enjoy!

~Le Scam Merchant (Thx @Sabastion)

Description: A sneaky little bastard from the long removed VIP Town (name says all, a town for VIPs), who used his wits to steal all your emeralds. How, you ask? First, he would make an offer to sell an emerald block... and offer one emerald in return! GENIUS.

Over the years, the Scam merchant grew rich from all his scamming. But one fateful day, the terrible beast known as the EULA attacked the VIP Town and burned it into cinders, but the resourceful scam merchant lived on, and used the money he scammed to retire on a sparkly beach somewhere on the coast of Llevigar, where he remains to this day, sipping a glass of liquid emeralds and wearing a cloak of Salted Skin.

Press "f," to pay respects to this legend.

~Grian/Salted edits (Thx @DirtyDoge and @Oryx)

Description: In late summer of 2016, forumer @Oryx and his elite team of scrubby editors got busy ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), and as a result, the Grian and Salted edits were born. Forumers near and far were provided free access to cool trendy profile pics of Grian and Salted, via this thread. And as of 8/27/16, they still are in use by numerous forumers. Here are a few examples (Credit to Grian editing squad):

Spoiler: WARNING: Images

~2015 Scarf Blob Rebellion (Thx @Rawb)

Description: Sometime in the middle of Gavel's primary development period, an army of furry creature's known as Scarf Blob's invaded the Forum pages, turning some members into their own kind. This sparked a massive Forum thread war, even resulting in the creation of some hate threads in complaint against the insanity. Eventually, most Forumers grew to live with the blobs, and peace was made again, as most of the blobs returned to their normal state.

As of today, very few blobs remain, and the only frequently active blob still lurking the Forum pages is @RIP|captainganon. Take his picture if u like.

~The Jacksonben1331 Saga (Thx @SpadeZ1)

Description: A short event in which the legendary @jacksonben1331 attempted to achieve the goal of 10 posts to post an image for his shop, creating thread after thread in multiple sections. Constantly, he persevered in his quest, dogged by the efforts of Px_1 and Riu, until he was faced with the crushing power of the temp-ban. In the end however, he used the infinite power of thread replies to acquire the power of the ten posts, and he was finally able to make his shop. Praise Jacksonben, for he is a hero.

For those interested (why) , the saga was chronicled into this Imgur Album, and a worthy tribute was created on this thread.

~Squiggles the Squid (@SpadeZ1)

Description: In a dank attempt to troll the masses on April Fools 2014, the admins of Wynn unleashed a powerful being known as Squiggles the Squid, a pet issued to every player on the server, who dealt no damage or did anything but look derp. Although most were unaffected by this, and continued to play the game as normal, some players chose to have a little fun while the April Fools prank lasted, taking the squid on adventures and making dank memes.

Squiggles was removed the day after, causing some hysteria and crying, and more than one album of squiggles related pics. RIP Squiggles.

Also, "figt me i rekt u" was from the super old forums. PhoenixJHyde saw a flame war and said that all it was was "figt me i rekt u" and then closed it. The meme then spread with a pic of his profile picture with those exact words.

 

7.8/10 not enough "k"

 

Added and cited! Thanks!

 

There also used to be an image with the "FIGT ME I REKT U" statement, but no one knows where it's gone to.
