15 boards with the lowest posts/min shut down every 1 hour so far, objectively by itself not that funny of a prank.

On the other hand..

Looks like they are just blocking off low post count boards. Got this when I went to /t/.

You can still get to individual threads if you know the post number, but the catalog just gets you greeted with that image.

/jp/ went down for this.
Oh, no. I'm remembering some 4chan lore:
If I'm not mistaken, /jp/ is basically the bastard child of /a/. It was born to get non-anime generals off /a/, focusing on otaku culture. Moot was particularly moody about having to create it, telling them early on to moderate themselves or else, basically.
/m/ too, now that I checked, lol.
I found that board surprisingly slow whenever I checked it.

moot was actually a big fan of /jp/ and personally used the board a lot. Probably because it used to be the closest board to 4chan's original founding culture/userbase (white nerds who fancy themselves hikki otaku)
He used to make mildly off-topic shitpost threads on /jp/ (eg. Asuka threads)

Ever since he left it's been a containment zone for j-idol and gacha general threads, sort of like how /mu/ became nothing but kpop spam.
Anyway, that being said, I hope moot is killed anally. Only an anal death will do

It would've made more sense (and been funnier because of the spergout it would create) if it did this to the actual popular boards. This joke just punishes and pisses off the people who used actual niche boards that were likely to be less retarded. /vr/ and /tg/ are too personal examples that are active enough that you can browse them daily.

They went through the effort of making not one, not two, but 4 new vidya related boards in the last few years and they all have low activity because the average /v/ user is too retarded to use a different board, this would've been the perfect opportunity to force people to try out the other boards even if for a single day.

I don't want a influx of /v/ retards on the smaller vidya boards
