well they certainly are now >_>And I wonder where they will migrate to, or if they'll just spread around.
How was /a/? I never step foot in that board beforeMostly hornyposting
And I wonder where they will migrate to, or if they'll just spread around.The culture is too strong. They'll probably just make a spinoff site instead if I had to guess
Mostly hornypostingFandoooooooooom!!!

The culture is too strong. They'll probably just make a spinoff site instead if I had to guessProbably, thinking about it. Especially that there isn't many popular places that still use the old style of forum, instead of the annoying thread style of Reddit or Twitter's replies.
That is a little unhinged even for Elon MuskIs it really? Look at the shit he says with his name and face attached. It's plausible he holds these views in private and was expressing them under the guise of anonymity.

I doubt it's him but not because it's too unhinged.
I don't care for the site but losing one of the last bastions of anonymity on the net is generally a loss at large.You weren't really anon. Mods and stuff could see your IP. FBI and stuff had it too. You weren't truly anon.
Granted they likely wouldn't be in this situation if they didn't allow abuse of that. Double edged sword and all.
I am not saying Elon wouldn't agree with the things that account is saying, just that Elon doesn't froth at the mouth like that.Elon is absolutely the kind of person to froth at the mouth like that behind closed doors.
You weren't really anon. Mods and stuff could see your IP. FBI and stuff had it too. You weren't truly anon.Yeah, 4chan always cooperated with the law and it wouldnt surprise me if they constantly had feds monitoring the boards

You would think, but if so, response times on some mass shootings would've been shorter. That, and I think the screwball who decapitated his dad could've been better monitored.That guy was 4chan? I thought it was just some youtube nut

they would just follow what ip is connected to it, then what ip is connected to that, and so on, until the end point
still works today with the prevalence of vpns
I remember somebody joking on /b/ that he would explode dirty bombs in some NFL stadiums.He didn't actually have dirty bombs though, right?
FBI caught him pretty fast.
He didn't actually have dirty bombs though, right?No bombs at all, but I want to remember that he got legally punished for it.

I've never heard of Soyjak Party.It appears to be a site based on resentment by hyper-online losers who couldn't control their behavior enough to avoid getting banned off 4chan. It's not very active. It's not some kind of hacker meetup, it's just where the guy(s) who knew about the PHP exploit posted the leak and possibly did some planning there also.
Yeah, the people dont just *disappear* when the site diesBut their presence is diluted, and they may find their nasty shit isn't welcome elsewhere, no one is impressed by, or encouraging their fuckwittery, and they'll have to reign it in to be accepted.
Their userbase culture is too passionate to just assimilate to another site. They're probably just gonna make a new site, like Resetera did off NeogafSo what you are saying is there is absolutely no downside to closing these sorts of places. Either their culture isn't passionate enough and the cancer dies, or they make a new site and stay there. Very win-win for shutting down cancerous places.
Everything you have ever posted there is mailed to your coworkers/immediate family.https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/8/8d0376b6.jpg
Your reaction?
Yeah, the people dont just *disappear* when the site diesWell, it reminded me the wave on Twitter that happened when Tumblr died. And also Reddit.
So what you are saying is there is absolutely no downside to closing these sorts of places. Either their culture isn't passionate enough and the cancer dies, or they make a new site and stay there. Very win-win for shutting down cancerous places.You make it sound like the website itself is the problem. There's no functional difference if everyone on 4chan goes to "5kun" or whatever compared to 4chan itself just staying around.
Allegedly they found Elon MuskI'd buy it.

Everything you have ever posted there is mailed to your coworkers/immediate family.I'm not worried, I posted there like twice back in 2006 on the anonymous board and posted dumb stuff like I do here except I entered a username because I didn't realize you were supposed to post anonymously
Your reaction?
I'd buy it.It's certainly embarrassing enough to have feasibly been written by him

I'm pointing out how dumb the whole "containment website" concept is. No one is required to just stick to one website, so letting cancer fester just means that the pus will splatter onto other websites and infect them as well.

So either they grow up or get shoved into the toilet. It will be a learning moment mixed with yet another moment that the moderation staff of whatever site the people go to will become scarred for life with.
