fuck maintaining a consistent persona
It's literally just namefagging without being special because everyone else namefags. It's not like thread regulars didn't end up making up their own monikers despite not samefagging, or that others did it for them since they became recognizable posters. No one is forcing (You) to make up an account gimmick. You can just, y'know, post.

"All fucking jannies should fucking hang."
 
/pol/ unironically is the best news source on the Internet.
eh, was it though? Wading through all the schizo posting and pure misinformation just to cruise for body-cam footage from the latest mass shooting that was scrubbed from MSM? I understand why people think it was a good news source but rarely saw it to be true in practice
 
Holy shit, 8chan.moe is also down. I don't know if it's in retaliation or just a big coincidence.

I'll chime in even more. The only e-celeb they've ever stickied was that black Smash player who would make all those overly exaggerated hype videos (RIP to him, he killed himself). Forgot his name. Also, Nintendo Direct were also the first stickied threads for those kinda things. /v/ mods will not only suck Nintendo's cock, but will massage their balls while they slide their fingers in your asshole.
then they kill snootgame a literal /v/ project that came from /v/ for /v/ and force it to /trash/ lmao
 
I semi-regularly browsed /vn/, and mostly stuck around for new releases. I never understood what was going on with the spam, but I overlooked it as the general was way less bad than other generals I browsed.
I hadn't earned my right to browse /vn/ by reading all teh VNs by the time the site died. RIP. All vnchads have left now are troon-infested Discords
 
in retrospect I'm surprised this didn't happen sooner. All the boards that originally made the site memorable were decaying corpses of what they once were
/g/ was still good for the occasional bantz and /ck/ would still have quality OC from time to time, but I'm not sure what else we're really losing here
IIRC /vg/ was the biggest board. Something like a General Chan with a more expansive list would be nice.

They? Moot picked those people and left 4chan to them when he fucked off.
Fucked off? From what I remember Moot went into debt to keep that site running even with all the shitflinging towards him. We don't deserve moot ever again, we disrespected that poor dude. I'm happy that he's living his best life working in the tech industry in Japan.
 
Nigga you're on the e-celeb gossip site
The old 4chan little play of giving whoever mentions random Internet figure a (you) just to say:
>random eceleb posting KYS
"heh! I'm so cool cause I don't know any ecelebs and I'm only on this imageboard to post frogs" :smug:

Doesn't work because you're on the one website that is the antithesis of that, IDK how many times someone unfamiliar to me gets mentioned randomly only to copy paste the name in the forum search bar and boom, they have a thread :story:
 
That attitude is why 4chan is dying, no Zoomer is going to browse shit unless its an app so now you have boomers frog and wojak posting for over a decade straight. There hasn't been a new meme from that hellhole in over a decade now for a reason.
The younger half of gen Z is completely retarded i.e. ipad kids, is it worth it?
 
It's dogshit. Clover was such a better experience than posting on the browser, it's not even funny.
The big problem with phone posting via Clover or whatever the iToddler app is called is that you're not in a position to be creative, you're just reposting shit or not adding new images. But this extends to doing with the phone's browser as well -- so whatever.
 
Genuinely pathetic to be a fucking nintoddler in 2025 nintendo hasn't been good since the wii u era at least and even then it's been getting greedy remember that fucking wii sports wii u game that was like a subscription or some shit

truke, I do like the new games, but the way Nintendo sells them is just fucking retarded, so I just pirate their shit. I spent enough on my PC already. Or better yet I can get a Steamdeck (2).
Like imagine having kids, would you rather let them play some cool games that are like $20/free or pay $80 for a game, which they'll get bored with in a few weeks.
 
yeah, at this point I think it might be optimistic to see it even returning to full service, let alone getting any better. the jannies will just return more unemployed than ever, fully coping trying to silence any ridicule of this obviously massive and inexcusable fuck-up that has managed to take the site down for going on over 12 hours now.
It'll probably back eventually, but a good chunk of the already dwindling organic users will be gone for good after this. The refugees have realized most forums and even painfully slow altchans are still preferrable to the state of the site pre-hack and God knows whatever the conditions will be when it's back. Just a wasteland of feds, Indians, and bots writhing on top of each other.
