Rips[]
- "We only upload super duper epic medium-high varying quality rips"
- ―NnnnnaNnnnnnr's comment on "Welcome to VvvvvaVvvvvvr!"
The channel uploads almost anything submitted, with little quality control, allowing anyone to express their creativity and get into ripping,[1] although the channel started to enforce minor quality control in 2018 to prevent rips created with no effort at all.
The channel functions moreso as a parody of SiIvaGunner fan channels and SiIvaGunner itself, rather than video game music. As such, its uploads often forgo the usual kayfabe of presenting rips as legitimate re-uploads of tracks in favor of using fake games or other silly titles. In the description, the different things being listed are usually used for jokes instead of legitimate information. Metadata is frequently typo-ridden or incomplete, especially in the channel's earlier videos.
The channel has many of its own memes, most prominently featured in the 2017 uploads. Some notable ones include "Rock My Forum", "Doin' Your Mom", "Goomba Got Back", "Reese's Puffs Rap" / Puffstale, "Pac-Man Smoking Crack", "Chadtronic Scan" (and its reboot version "How to properly clean your metal computer"), "Temporary Secretary", Scatman, Manky Kong, "Shelter", lol 7 (ironic 7 GRAND DAD), and ironic memes in general like "PPAP" or "Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)".
History[]
The VvvvvaVvvvvvr channel was created on January 19, 2017, by Hintlord.[2] Its first rip was "Megalovania (Dog Mix - Undertale", a midi swap of" Dogsong".
The channel's name is a reference to the many other SiIvaGunner fan channels, and their frequent use of the letter V.[3] The profile pictures of VvvvvaVvvvvvr, and his counterpart character called "NnnnnaNnnnnnr", use a mirror effect, the same effect used for the L.A.M.A.J and ERIOIOIRE meme.
The SiIvaGunner team has expressed its appreciation for the channel by frequently liking or sharing its videos, and referencing its memes in their rips. The most notable example is "Main Theme - Pac-Man", a Pacman Smoking Crack reference uploaded as a new Christmas Comeback Crisis episode.
Suspension and Resolution[]
On April 6, 2018, VvvvvaVvvvvvr announced that it was being suspended following a DMCA copyright takedown request by Ray William Johnson to take down "Rock My Forum". Moder112, the manager of the channel, hosted a livestream to explain the situation and answer questions.[4]
On April 12, 2018, the channel uploaded a rip titled "Goodbye to a Fanchannel", a reference to "Good Night - Undertale" which announced that the channel had resolved its dispute with Johnson's legal team, and would continue on.
End of Chapter 1[]
On November 22, 2019, the channel announced in a community post and on Discord that it would be ending on January 19, 2020, its third anniversary, stating that the reason is burnout from the backroom, and that they "will not be like SiIva and pull a CCC". After this announcement, several fan submitters were promoted to team, the most amount of promotions given in a single day since the channel was founded. On December 31, 2019, the channel had a day dedicated to ending rips from fans.
After channel events dedicated to speedrun parodies (in observance of AGDQ 2020), ripping the entire VVVVVV soundtrack (in observance of its 10th anniversary and it previously having been banned from being used on channel), and completing the soundtrack to Puffstale (one of the most-ripped fake games on the channel), plus a few sporadic album announcement videos, the channel reopened fan submissions for one final time on May 18, 2020. Once all these rips were uploaded, the first episode of Ends Here, Ends Now, a 6-episode finale for the channel's lore, was uploaded on June 10, 2020. Episodes of EHEN came out daily, with the exception of the final episode, which was preceeded by a 2 week break.
On July 12, 2020, over a month after the first episode of EHEN came out, the channel uploaded a final true ending video crediting all the team members and all fansubbers. SiIvaGunner and TimmyTurnersGrandDad uploaded several tribute rips leading up to the premiere, which included various popular jokes from the channel. A couple minutes later, " Ending) - Mario" was uploaded, which closed the parenthesis from the channel's first rip, "Megalovania (Dog Mix-Undertale".
VvvvvaVvvvvvr: Chapter 2[]
"Maximum quality must be achieved."

- VvvvvaVvvvvvr's rips "All l Want for Christmas Is You", "THE MOST MYSTERIOUS SONG ON THE INTERNET (BETA MIX) - FULL VERSION FOUND!, and "Tetris Tonight - PibbyGunner's Highest Quality Pips: Volume V" were all accidentally uploaded on SiIvaGunner at first.
