Welcome to Rotten Websites Wiki!
Terrible websites you'll want to stay far away from.
In an ever-changing world, where the economy is so unpredictable, it's no surprise to see websites screw over their users or go downhill with poor ideas. This wiki serves to document these websites and why they're bad now; it also covers "rotten" moments in internet history, including pranks, gimmicks, and infamous internet culture with viral madness!

Welcome to Rotten Websites ShoutWiki! This ShoutWiki covers "rotten" websites and why those sites suck; ranging from video websites to social networking, or possibly notable people on the Internet that are known to be just rotten as best.

There are two rottens; why they're "rotten" and why "their businesses" rotten. "Why They're Rotten" covers unfair businesses, and "Why Their Businesses' Rotten" covers a site that has gotten downhill to their userbases via unfair updates or poor practices for a business.
