'''Melee Hell''' is a [[Facebook]] group, designed as a satirical response to the Melee Social Facebook group and Melee Social board on [[Smashboards]]. Created by {{sm|Brookman}} | '''Melee Hell''' is a [[Facebook]] group, designed as a satirical response to the Melee Social Facebook group and Melee Social board on [[Smashboards]]. Created by {{sm|Brookman}} on June 10th, 2014, Melee Hell has since grown to contain 49,537 members, with some professional smashers like {{sm|Hungrybox}}, {{sm|Mew2King}}, {{sm|Kage}}, and {{sm|Hax}} taking part in the group. | ||
The original group was archived on November 25th, 2020<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/MeleeHell/posts/2800297486858566/?__cft__[0]=AZXun0n1SWGwpLR1LpKz3NtqpKxkz1x5CODEv5DfE5bkIYfoOHlFl-dG0u2DmWCfluaiLotyRi5yFqZgT5LEJb5h_Ld4tvWj0y14R46_efaL1FoH5gtdG7sXlBwOLUlO6zdYkXDxojs2c0kY_R5uJzp3km3zXg16-WOQao3BBa6UA5-kOYmjZgUoodaJfz64znU&__tn__=%2CO%2CP-R Archive Post]</ref>, with Brookman citing Facebook's "draconian" terms of service, involving a warning received by the platform for a meme posted by a member. However, a second group has since been made by Brookman on the same day, which has over 8,600 members and sees large levels of activity. | |||
==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
Posters on Melee Hell often reference farcical in-jokes, such as [[20XX]], posts about ''Melee's'' perceived quality compared to other games in the series, and satirical statements about other smashers. A large majority of posts also tend to be edited images or videos surrounding such in-jokes, as well as extensive references to {{s|wikipedia|internet meme}}s. Members also jokingly ask "Where's the Melee?" if a post's content is unrelated to ''Melee''. | Posters on Melee Hell often reference farcical in-jokes, such as [[20XX]], posts about ''Melee's'' perceived quality compared to other games in the series, and satirical statements about other smashers.

In addition to Melee Hell, a variety of other parody groups related to other games in the series have appeared on Facebook, such as Smash 4 Hell (later renamed Smash Switch Hell) and Melee Heaven. Other groups unrelated to ''Smash Bros.'' have also been created with the "Hell" tag at the end of the name, e.g. "Initial D Hell", "Deus Ex Hell". | In addition to Melee Hell, a variety of other parody groups related to other games in the series have appeared on Facebook, such as Smash 4 Hell (later renamed Smash Switch Hell) and Melee Heaven. Other groups unrelated to ''Smash Bros.'' have also been created with the "Hell" tag at the end of the name, e.g. "Initial D Hell", "Deus Ex Hell". This has since become somewhat ingrained into Facebook group cultures, with communities far outside Smash's influence adopting the term for "shitposting" groups. | ||
