The Fab Faction was a Newgrounds flash/forum crew started on January 7th, 2011. Space-Whale made a thread on General titled "The Fun Thread". It was meant to be a thread where parties and general awesomeness would happen, but it soon derailed into a mess. Narcissy made a fab sig, and very soon after, Space-Whale wanted one too. Other users quickly followed with the sigs, and the Fab Faction was born. A short-lived thread for the members of the new-found Fab Faction was made in the Clubs & Crews forum, but was quickly locked on the grounds that "We don't need a club for every Aura,"
