Posters on Melee Hell often reference in-jokes, such as [[20XX]] (with Hax being their lord and savior and with everyone in the group saying they main Fox), farcical 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 photoshopped images. Due to recent events, Melee Hell has grown, now numbering over 10.000 members.

This is to, "keep things dank and fresh" according to their Facebook moderators. | ||
