Welcome to Gabba Gabba!
What is Gabba Gabba?

Gabba Gabba is a community message board and URL sharing service with a twist. Each message on the Gabba Gabba message board has its own unique Gabba Gabba ID. These IDs can be posted in game, directing players to this wiki page to retrieve your message. In-game, just say "Gabba Gabba" followed by your message ID. It's that easy to direct players to a message.


 

Peer reviewed?

Are you leery of following URLs given out in game or on the wiki? You've got good reason. That URL could lead to spam, a malicious website, something NSFW or even the a oft annoying Rick Roll. With Gabba Gabba, URLs are peer reviewed and noted as being safe or unsafe. Give your audience the peace-of-mind that the URL you're giving is safe to click on.


 

Who Can Use This?

Anyone! Unique IDs were designed to consist only of letters found in Zamgrh, the language of the undead. So zombies with Death Rattle and survivors alike can post IDs in-game. The name Gabba Gabba itself is even Zamgrh friendly.

You don't need to be a wiki expert to use Gabba Gabba, either. If you can copy and paste, you can use the service. Keep reading to find out how.

To post a new message:

1. Copy the wiki markup code below

{{GabbaGabba
|Gabba Gabba ID:=
|Message:=
|URL?:=
|User:=
}}

2. Click the link below to edit the message board section.

3. Paste the code directly below the line that states '''paste code here'''.

4. Click the Show Preview button.

5. Copy the Gabba Gabba ID shown at the top of the page.

6. Paste the unique ID after the line that says "Gabba Gabba ID:=" (optionally you can enter your own text to use as a Gabba Gabba ID. Just keep in mind that it should be unique to other IDs on the page).

7. Fill in the message line with your message or URL and the signature line with --~~~~ (if you're posting a URL, type yes after the line "URL?:=". The template will automatically format it for you)

8. Click Save. You're now ready to share your Gabba Gabba ID in-game! Just say or broadcast "Gabba Gabba" followed by your unique ID
