Fox 11 News broadcasts a hysterical and unintentionally hilarious report on Anonymous, giving normies their first taste of imageboard culture.
A watershed moment in internet history…
I'd like to use this thread as an opportunity for us to reflect on the impact imageboards, both on politics and daily life.
2007 was a turning point my life.
Not only was that the year I graduated high school and went to college, I became engrossed in the shadier side of the internet. On the various shitty forums I'd post, regulars in the respective communities frequently linked to Encyclopedia Dramatica, which gave me my first taste of deeply vulgar humor. Absolutely nothing in entertainment compared to a single page on ED. I then discovered imageboards, which drastically changed the course of my life.
One decade later, the saner part of my psyche would argue I'd squandered my prime on frivolity, but in all the years I spent lurking here, I like to think I learned about the nature of man under the cloak of anonymity.
Yes. I was 35 then and all my slutty friends from high school wanted to cheat on their husbands with Facebook.

2007 was a good one :(
Nolan Hernandez
Holy shit, 10 years flew by quickly.
My life has changed in all sorts of ways, I've done all sorts of things, had all sorts of experiences, and have changed completely from who I was when that exploding van became famous.
And yet all this time later, one thing hasn't changed. I'm still sat here, searing the light blue background into my eyes.
We really are here forever, aren't we?
Carson James
It's already been 10 years? Wow

Disgusting newfag scum.

2007 was the year everything went to shit you fucking cunt. I was only in 7th grade at the time. If only I had known.
Gavin Hughes
Let's talk about the history of "Anonymous."
1. Wayne Madsen alleges that Anonymous under the Obama admin was run from the White House. September 19-20, 2011 – The Most Dangerous Man in the World [just ahead of Rupert Murdoch] archive.is/jg3l6
Can anyone point to copies of those particular HB Gary emails? I could not find them in the Wikileaks HBGary database.
2. There was also allegedly a civil war within Anonymous in 2011-2012 between Telecomix and everyone else. I can't find any details on that.
3. Lizard Squad had very outsized power for a bunch of teenagers. It seemed like someone else was running them, but that info never came out.
4. They all started out protesting against scientology and for freedom of speech on the internet. Now self-described anons are more likely than not to be cultists (SJW or Islam) and work to suppress freedom of speech on the internet. How did that happen?
5. GGHQ found that one of their antagonists literally wrote the book on Anonymous. That may be worth discussing. >>>/gamergatehq/330874
Benjamin Moore
That exploding van video really killed the media's credibility for an entire generation.
Who could take them seriously after this blatant display of retardation? Any narrative they tried to push after this was dead in the water.
Adrian Thomas
Be careful about these threads, newfags. This is how shilling can shape history, by pretending to be an oldfag and then discussing history in a way they craft. It's unavoidable for people to do this and be biased, but beware if the bias is sincere.
Once upon a time in California there were only two or three non-whites in elementary school, in the 90's (born 91). You could play outside 'till dark, playing hide'n'go'seek'tag. Video games were something you played together in a room, also during sleep overs. Parents would let you ride your bike or scooters down to the corner store to get candy. There'd be water balloon fights in the neighborhood. You'd read sci-fi and imagine that's what life is going to be like and that you'll help it get there, soon. You'd want to be the next Iron Man gadgeter (without the Hollywood kikery). There was hierarchy in school, with people who got bullied and bullies, and the people who play sports a lot. You'd climb trees and fight with sticks. Hop fences. Create forts outside with bushes and said sticks. Create forts in your house with pillows and blankets. You'd dream of, if you didn't already have one, having a tree house.
This was lower-middle income life for a white child.

It's funny, I was reflecting on 2007 just today. I was a young boy and this was when I really started using the Internet. I used it a lot before, but now I had YouTube and Wikipedia and Google, stuff I didn't use too much before.
Fuck man, I used to watch Ed Edd n Eddy AMVs all the time back then. It also dawns on me that it's been ten years since Chadwardenn and Chris Chan'a discovery.
Anthony Russell
I still remember my first and still my favorite AMV. I remember first bumping into 4chan while looking for free FLCL /h/ games. Those feelings, the feeling of when the internet still hadn't been taken over by normalfags. Thank God for the chans. I'm proud to be part of everything we've become. I love you faggots
Owen Ramirez
Sometimes I'm staggered by the fact that the reason I don't consider myself belonging to any of the subcultures I see around me in real life is because I consider myself part of this one. An imageboard has become my society, in spite of never having met anyone from it. Billy Joel said it best.
"Yes they're sharing a drink they call loneliness, but it's better than drinking alone."
Liam Rogers
Namefags from 7 Chan /i/ never die.
Only Alex Wuori (in the video), Ian Goeth, and Julia Maynus (SS Chan).
Robert Cox
Would you have it any other way, user?
We'll be shitposting in the afterlife. Whatever that ends up beings, I'm looking forward to meeting each of you faggots.
Colton Hall
Oh fuck, I remember that imageboard. Whatever happened to them? I haven't heard about 7chan for years.
Aaron Green
They're still around. Their /tg/ is borderline industrial pipeline in terms of efficiency in pirating new books.

I'd rather have this thread than the countless eceleb threads we have daily, mostly posted by kids who were still shitting their diapers and back in 2007.
Ethan Fisher
Fug I still have my 16bit color CRT from back then.
Eli Davis
I was born in 97 and i still remember these days. Those were fun times. Its crazy how much things changed around the years of 07-10.
Josiah Morgan
Same here user, After hearing of the death of Chester Bennington from Linkin Park a few days ago,they were the first band i followed and became a fan of Ive been reflecting alot on the early and mid 2000s when I was young. I can definitely relate to what you posted. The AMVs, chadwarden, Halo 3 vids, Newgrounds, The old internet was alot of fun back then and im happy I got to experience it even though I was young.
Landon Harris
For me personally, 2007 was the hardest year of my life. Thinking back at it, it's a miracle I haven't commited suicide that year.

Thomas Thompson
I mean I'm 93 but faggot what the FUCK are you talking about I came in on the Holla Forums train around 08. Mom was crazy, no dad, no family, grew up as the only white kid in the ghetto. The internet, chans, all of you pieces of shit coagulated into a single, gigantic faggot, you were, and are, my only friend. I wouldn't trade the last decade for anything, and I sure as shit don't give a fuck about money anyway. My birthday is coming up, I'll spend it with Holla Forums, September 23rd, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Isaac Turner
My shit back in 2007-2010 was those old halo machinima things. Like embeded. This was one I watched all the time. Then I started going on Holla Forums and Holla Forums. I think the time I noticed stuff going to shit was around 2012. That was when there was a considerable pushback from socjus people on the internet. A lot of kid tranny videos came out and everyone was pretty pissed at it. This was when tropes vs women as a fundraiser or whatever came out. Around the same time, people started also using the word "cis male" and "white privilege" unironically.
Remember when threads on 4chan would get instantly derailed with dubs? It was cancer but fucking hillarious too. Or the Holla Forumsgas, where the eceleb retards ruined it. Then they had the audacity to do it multiple times as if ANYONE FUCKING WANTED IT. Only to attract retarded redditors who unironically liked those faggots. They all turned out to be leftist shills anyways. Moot and his mods around that time actually started enforcing things, which honestly signalled the beginning of the end. Pre-2012 Holla Forums was a mix of Holla Forums, Holla Forums and videogames. After he shook shit up and made /vg/ and then made all his new friends mods, the place got so shitty so fast that I stopped going.
Ive spend nearly 7 years going on here frequently (and not for porn). Thats some fucking shit.

Jesus Christ they still make these. I miss not having a care in the world back then. Just school and videogames. I didnt have to attend right wing rallys and brawl with antifa, or debate college students or work hard. Maybe one day thing will calm down again.
Easton Nguyen
One last thing I was reminded of. I first saw this AMV back in the day when I was on WinMX and Compuserve. The first 'social media' for me was the chat room in WinMX, where I RP'd as a Dragon Ball character (as a kid, duh). Never RP'd with godmoding faggots.
The introduction to the internet wasn't gaming, but pirating music.
Jose Garcia
I didn't ask for this
Wyatt Nguyen
I came in around early 2005, so I guess I'm an Oldfag.
I actually co-admined an RP forum back in the day, and it may (I'm not sure) have been where I found out about 4chan to begin with. It was set in Kingdom Hearts, and everybody was a godmodding faggot, but usually had a sense of fair play about it too. A lot of "but now I am behind you, Kira" moments, and we'd assemble panels of judges for actual PvP scenes.
It was fucking infuriating as RPing with a bunch of 15 year old weebs sounds like, but I remember it fondly anyways.
I miss get threads with taxmaster, giga nigga, etc. Too bad that 8ch is too slow for most of them.

I got into the internet at a very young age. I started out playing carmen sandiego games on my parents old IBM when I was probably around 5 then I got bored with that and accidentally clicked on the Netscape icon and my entire world changed. It was for the best though. It gave me an understanding of things at a very young age and put me ahead of the curve of other kids in my age group.

this gif is inaccurate the nes gun detected a hit or not by flashing a white box over the target, and if the gun detected white it would register a hit if not it would be a miss that's why it was so easy to cheat by just pointing it at a white piece of paper
Oliver Long
wew lad. I have a feeling of accomplishment mixed with melancholy for the life I've also wasted. The path of the redpill is hard.
Kevin Murphy
I got on Holla Forums back in the summer of 2005 and it instantly clicked with me. 12 years later, here I am.
4chan definitely had a huge impact on my life and influenced the person I turned into today, for better or for worse. (Worse)
I miss those days lads.
Luke Hall
Straight in the feels, man. 10 years ago I was just a shitty newfag in highschool on Holla Forums shitposting memes and calling people niggerkikes. Now I've finally started a decent career and finally out on my own. I'm doing my best to find a good woman to wife up and have lots of white children. I get immense feelings of joy and simultaneous sadness looking when I think back to these times, or look at the old pictures/home videos from the 90s. It's what we fight for. My children will not have that future. My children will have a tough dystopian future. But perhaps my grandchildren will have that future.
Lincoln Reed
I remember the constant fucking around with Tom Green and his online show. Insane to think he's turning 60 this year.
Charles Collins
Kek, I asked that band on their Facebook page if they intentionally wrote that song foretelling the eventual surge of patriotism and hard right sentiment of thousings of users on an anonymous Chinese cartoon image board website who engage in an esoteric spiritual and cyber war against the illuminati. They responded with some dumb gay shit.
Fuck that band

I wish we could post .swf here. I've got some old gems lying around in the pre-webm era format.

I still have my old windows 98 rig I used to surf Holla Forums with back in the early 2000s. I should hook it up and see what kind of ancient treasures are on it
Caleb Wilson
Do it, faggot.
Caleb Foster
Fucking newfags.
Jack Powell
In light of this, I found a chat log from 10 years ago, today. Nothing to do with anything culturally, though. I was on Tagged.com social media being a 'normal'-rp-fag.
I cringe reading it now, but a couple weeks ago I probably wouldn't have.
Easton Scott
Mods should filter this, actually. My bad.
John Evans
Webm is certainly superior for video purposes, but there was a neat little community that sprang up in being able to embed games directly into the imageboard. Full of security exploits, though, so probably not advisable now that we've got alphabet agencies lurking around.
You won't be ready for this one either.
Jackson Ortiz
anybody remember "good" machinima?
Nicholas Cox
I always thought to myself with a pang of sadness back a decade ago that all the things I love so much I'd one day get tired of as a natural part of growing up. I'd eventually put it all behind me, the shitposts, the vidya, the animu, I'd drop it all one day and fit into normalfag society as another cog in a corporate machine and that would be that.
Yeah that never happened lol
Brody Wilson
10 years is a long time, but man have we come far since then. Plus Ultra

baph is the edgy hax0r boaed. There is boards for everything on the infinite chan. Even a board for those too autistic for Holla Forums where they vent their autism, called >>>/polism/24
David Sanchez
These are years during the current century where things took a running leap into a profoundly more shitty direction. 2007 was probably the worst though. Social media, smart phones, the Virginia tech massacre, the Fox report on Anonymous, it seems like any shitty thing that's happened in the 21st century is more likely to have happened in 2007 than any other year.
Matthew Wilson
I don't care if Chester Bennington was a Hillary supporter, my inner middle schooler is crying in a corner right now listening to the Minutes to Midnight album on his iPod shuffle. Fuck, if it weren't for Linkin Park I would have never gotten into hard rock music.

I'm glad someone else dug up the conquest of western anonymous by telecomix. It was actually part of why anonymous supported the arab spring nonsense. Telecomix at the time was a major fucking problem. Did some research into them after they made contact with the bureau a couple of years ago.

2007 was also the beginning of the golden age of Youtube Poop. I still watch old poops today.
Oliver Evans
I find it weird that while I was on the internet in 2007, I didn't start using any chans until 2015. And yet I could tell you about many of the old internet memes: mudkips, habbo, those old image macros, winrar even though I was nowhere near those when they were popular. It's like my love of history, having knowledge of certain events but not actually participating in them.

My friends and I went on 4chan at my birthday party for shits and giggles in 2008, along with the usual sharing of cool videos we found on youtube since we last saw each other. My next birthday party we did the same thing, but this time I visited it every week or so which turned into almost daily. Looking back I'm not embarrassed in the least for taking the "lurk for a year before posting" meme seriously. It really taught me the whole culture and history of the site. I was never really into Holla Forums and stayed with /g/, /a/, and Holla Forums (2013) until I migrated here full time in 2014. It hit me real hard when my hard drive died in 2013 and I lost years worth images. I couldn't bring myself to go back and took a 2 month break from browsing out of sadness.

If you want to help, add a bunch of these /polisms/ to >>>/polism/24 I'm the BO… I was originally being serious trying to make a community board, but when I woke up, no longer sleep deprived, and saw the name… I knew it's true purpose… An expression of all autistic tendencies of Holla Forums !!!

William Garcia
I was in the thread when some Holla Forumsack called the prosecution during the Zimmerman trial. Holy shit son I was laughing so hard when I saw that on air.
Don't remember the tribal wars raids though, do remember the twitter and tumblr raids before the death of 4/pol/ and moot's betrayal.

Is that really such a bad thing?
Eli Robinson
Get off my board fagggot.
Isaac Jenkins
The tribal war raids mainly happened in Holla Forums but we went to Holla Forums to recruit more people regularly.
I laughed so hard during those days, I'm glad I got to experience it. Pic related is a screenshot of the world map. Each dot represents a player village and all the black dots were us. When you join the game you spawn on the rim, hence why there is a giant ring of black dots when we raided it. Here is a funny wiki about the raid. and of course there was the occasional retard who spawned in the wrong side
Chanology really was an attempt to nip our growing power in the bud wasn't it?
We only reemerged in 2014. took us 6 goddamn years to recover and stop hating ourselves.

sucks the board is empty i would go if there were more than 6 threads. check out wizchan for the ultimate wizardry though.
Jonathan Robinson
I find it hard to tell. I was living near clearwater florida and was about 17-19 at the time and it got me back into things a bit. I had grown up watching the scientologists destroy the place. They crashed the property values downtown which helped them buy fucking all of it, the only business ro survive being the Checkers. Their efforts also expanded the ghettos and destroyed a good chunk of clearwater, and I hate them for it, and see all efforts against scientology as good… even if most of it was edgefagging. Shit, in middle school, a friend of mine modified his paintball gun to shoot ball bearings, and shot out a shitload of the windows as they were building yet another archology. Fuck scientology.
So, I see it as a mixed bag. Bad attention, edgelords, and newfags, but some good did come of it.
Elijah Gonzalez
It wasn't. I was there for some of the initial planning, and it was literally just a prank, bro. The problem is, in order to gain necessary groundswell, it was sold on a moral crusade basis, not a trolling operation, and that means we gathered the Kony2012 types who didn't really know what was going on but wanted something to be angry at and a Galactic Empire to fight. Only a short time into it, the people who started it no longer had any sway because the mooks so completely outnumbered them and as we all know, there is no chain of command in Anonymous. The creators hit the Eject button and let the marketing become the truth out of a lack of other options, and the whole thing spiraled out of control. I'm sure there we later co-opting attempts which were likely met with some success, but the initial idea was completely benign, in 4chan terms.
There's footage of me somewhere on the internet marching a picket line outside one of their physical locations.
Lucas Barnes
The board is less than 24 hours old, had to get admin to activate it due to a bug too. Make any thread you want or just shitpost in Shitposting General. Should I leave shitposting general as anchored or sticky it?

ROFL, sounds like the Rainbow Family, founded by NatSocialists, Vietnam Veterans and innawoods type original hippies (from before they were called hippies) turned to shit in he late 70s/early 80s and is slowly goinf full circle, with a fued between the racially aware street kids, peace n love oldfags and disgusting hipsters and burners who everyone hates, with a handful of old commies who think they're in charge and that everyone is a degenerate stoner yet never realising that all the oldfags and street kids just pretend to be too baked to understand english as a way to get them to leave.

At least you can talk, who was he?

Honestly I think that Chanology embedded the idea that every subsequent year will be worse than the previous one into our culture.
Thankfully we're getting past that now.

National Socialism saved us, user. It scares away the normies, purged our degenerate tendencies, and gave us a common cause beyond the lulz. I still like the lulz though.

I still get comfy thinking about it.
I also get a cold chill when I consider the enormity of the bullet we dodged. I remember people thinking Obama would be the end of America. Christ, could you imagine Hillary getting to appoint 3 SC justices? They'd go through the Constitution with an axe.
Aaron Howard
Honestly I don't think that it's ultimately about national socialism or any ideology.
I think that our culture could ultimately be a replacement for ideology like ideology was a replacement for religion.

Mid-2005, a friend I knew through a MUD enticed me into Holla Forums. Mostly browsed there and /x/ until all the GG shit started. Fuck, it's a trip thinking about what my life was like back then. Never thought I'd become an unironic racist.
Christopher Bennett
It's true. Hillary would have been the death of us all.
Aiden Thompson
Should've included the price of the Peso dropping like a rock after he won. Very fun thread though, up there will the best of all time next to the Garrison and Ferguson threads.
That was the plan. I think it became even more obvious to normalfags after they murdered Scalia.
William Allen
The best nigger-related threads imho were the Zimmerman trial threads.
Gabriel Moore
It was the Zimmerman trials that truly taught me just how dishonest the media was willing to be. I'd always known to be skeptical of them, but how they treated George Zimmerman taught me just how much malice they could have in even relatively trivial matters like a private citizen in a self defense shooting.
Eli Martinez
And then GamerGate was when the rest of our culture found out what we learned the previous year.
And now we have men in the white house as senior advisers to the President.

It was unironically the best day of my life when that happened. I laughed all day non-stop for about 3 days afterwards.
Lucas Harris
Has there ever been a larger amount of butthurt in our lives as that night?
The greatest part about it was that they ALL were convinced that they were going to win.
Cameron Wood
Lel never noticed that! They are probably using dads wordperfect PC.. The cherished times you got vidya were more important than food back then though, I remember some marathon gaming weekends with little sleep at buddies places.
Obvious troll forgot most newfags don't even know how to namefag
Turner used to get so butthurt at the raids, to the point he'd even SHUT IT DOWN sometimes kek. It was hilarious as fuck TBH.
I was shitposting AYB memes I had it printed on my grad shirt kek and the rest pre-chan (avoided chans due to CP+certain job related = no no), spent lots of time in the pits of IRC and shitty sites, but after my old home got bought out by the kikes (LL sold out to taboola) and forced me here, you faggots are the closest thing I have to net-fams. I love you all, k3 and praise kek, tet + the other gods for our continued good fortunes.
Feels thread deserves OC rare pepe.

I was busy that day so I was only in the aftermath threads. I agree though that it was the first turning point in waking up people's perception. Ferguson was the real shock to the systems for the general public though.

Oh snap, those are some memories too.. You were lost to that game by sounds of things and had it figured out very well, I never got that much into it. A buddy up the road used to be a well known and very successful Diablo2 item vendor/seller/hacker… you probably ran into them. Used to go lan at their place and play god damn lasertag outside. Total richfags and I remember being quite jealous at their fancy K6 rig, when intel got their ass beat by AMD briefly for one of the first times. Why truth trips = sleep for you? Curious association, assuming you're in burgerland it's normalfag bed time indeed. Cheers

Dubs confirm… Damn, I was on battlenet when the kikes and saudis with cianiggers blew up the towers. I was told "TURN ON ANY NEWS!" while in the lobby just as it happened. I remember grabbing my knife hoping it meant the DOTR was finally upon us, not thst I had learned the name yet. Still have that knife, saved and practiced with it from childhood, always next to my bed to disembowel a shitskin with. Rofl, the wait… and rofl, D2 killed grinding for me and made me realize that if I spent half the time training irl as I spent grinding in a game, I'd be a master at anything. Now I know countless trades, am skilled with almost any weapon or object in melee, and a decent shot. I bet I could make a gun that shot .22 out of a fucking elk carcass and the powder and bullets too. … I'm tempted to try now actually… Still, I'd like to fucking finish a damned playthrough of CK2 or EU someday. Maybe in five years I'll have time to play vidya and they'll be done making expansions. Pic related are early weapons I made, a poison dagger and an engraved bone cudgel, wish I had a pic of the face od the cudgel, it had teeth and everything carved in that could really gash a nigger. Well, I meant that I'd see it on the clock and realize I should sleep before sunrise. Though now that you mention it, I'm exhausted, barely slept last night and tired now, and have much work to do tomorrow.

They came out with a new album recently, after what must be decades of nothing but some live shows. Take a look at it. not a listen, but a look, the name of the album, title of the songs. They're fucking leafs anyway, what do you expect? also need a screencap of their response
Does machinima even exist anymore in any appreciable aspect? The company I know is just another dying MCN, but do people still make films from games? The closest I can think of is Holla Forums-tier team fagtress 2 "comedies" . wew How much do you want to et that those "crackbone" machinima makers ended up becoming a bunch of faggots in the current year?
You are a colossal FAGGOT. Meteora, Hybrid Theory, those I can understand having some nostalgia for even if they're meme-tier. That album? That's when they decided to throw away the one thing that made them slightly "unique" in the mainstream fag music area and turn into "generic shit pop rock band that wow swears in a song". Shitnigger faggot.

There's still people using SFM, and they've been getting better for years. Stuff like Burning Through Space could be a short film unto itself. Burning Through Space 2 has it's own original voice work, too. It's a far cry from "HEAVY IS DUCK" 5 second gmod videos. Also Detective Nigbone is pretty great too.
Michael Lopez
rofl, yeah that's me too. I'm too many anons… I think the mods even recognize me now… is that bad?
Poor bastard… I got out of the indoctrination system in middleschool and gamed it so I just had to take standardized tests occasionally until I turned 16. Tried out college at 15 or 16 and found out it was bullshit and went tradeschool at 18 for a few things. Ironically I never cared for /k/, always seemed like edgelords bragging about shit they didn't have. The best weapon is the one in hand that feels comfortable. A pointy stick in a skilled hand is more deadly than a gun in the hand of a n00b who's afraid of his own weapon. I mostly posted on /x/ and Holla Forums honestly and random boards on otherchans… I used to just work down the list on overchan back in the day, especially when 7chan was still a thing, I'd start at 7 and work down, then roll from the top. Best place to learn is where you are, just fucking grab a tool and start doing it, and start with something hard. Go slow, keep working, and don't fucking stop until something breaks or you're done. Yeah, take breaks every time you feel fatigued, but never stop. With the exception of welding, that's how I learned just about everything. If you ever meet a master though, a master of ANYTHING, devour every fucking bite of information he's willing to offer, even if it seems completely unrelated to anything you ever consider working on or with. It's ALL related when you've attained mastery of something. except MtGathering… All you need is focus, determination, and absolute confidence that eventually you will succeed! Thanks, it means a lot to have my work appreciated. It's damn hard finding people who value anything real in these dark times. I'm tempted to start carving some pieces specifically for anons but not sure what to start with. Maybe some black sun pendants? I really need to get more funds for one of my projects but fucking hate asking for money without giving something in return, it weakens my ability to create and grow better. It's fucked up, it's more profitable to beg for handouts than it is to sell real work sometimes, nobody tries to haggle or jew a begger, while they all try to jew the man who works. Well, if you want to see a new piece, I'm carving a sword out of antler to help fund the mark2 of pic related. Watch >>>/tok/ I tend to post more random threads there. passing out now, g'night anons. Praise Kek and SIEG HIEL!

Is there an official place with our history or is it all still just passed down through oral tradition? I know someone wanted to make a wiki to archive what we have since so much has already been lost to dead hard drives.
Ian Clark
The only one that comes close in Encyclopedia dramatica but it's cliff notes compared to actually being there. But yes for the most part we're techo occultists who pass on our culture and traditions via the oral tradition. But I just can't get over how overwhelmingly powerful we could become if we actually made the promised chan where would be completely free of hotpocket abuse. And a system that allows us to create and fund complex projects while retaining grounding in the community.
We're so close and yet so far to taking over the world.
Levi Sullivan
encyclopediadramatica does not publish their database in the open. and their being sued at the moment. they are the best thing we have to a history, but their lack of openness with their database is disturbing.
what we need is a new encyclopedia dramatica, that publishes their database publicly, like wikipedia does. that would be impossible to takedown.

i'm not fan of wikipedia, and the kikes and sjw's that run and moderate it, but they did do something right, their database is freely available to download, in full.
oneway or another any platform will need mods, i don't know the best way to go about it, but imagine this place became unmoderated, completely, the left would immediatly dump CP all over the board and prompt swat team raids on the servers, and the domain name registry, etc.
if we can learn anything it should be from thepiratebay, they have survived for what, 10 years? even after they lost in court and the original founders imprisoned.
Robert James
Scratch that, the one I remember featured the song from vid related. Damn, I doubt I'll ever find it.
Asher Hernandez
I'm not so sure it's a good idea to conveniently centralize the accurate history of our life's story. If such a wiki did exist it would have to be out of the grasp of normalfags. A hidden service in tor and i2p sounds like a good starting point.
I often forget just how influential we are. We've truly become the anti-jews now that we've begun to master meme magic. And to think it all started with Ebola-Chan.
I sense IPFS will be the answer to all our hosting problems.
Julian Scott
there's a couple solutions in existence, with literal chan boards in place already there. the problem? they're all dead boards
nothing will prompt a migration away from Holla Forums unless the mods become so over the top that it becomes cuckchan, or it's shutdown.
an encyclopediadramatica clone though, would be an easy addition and likely to gain a userbase, hosted over a distributed platform like ipfs.
(checked) You're lucky you escaped early. Certainly didn't find my last year of school to be very good educationally but was good socially and experience wise. This user also skipped uni after a semester of wasting time, realizing a piece of paper wasn't going to help pay the bills any more, as more and more people are funnelled through worthless university programs. I am more and more glad I didn't fall for the edujew.
Yes seeing commonality between mastery of subjects is critical, probably my favourite thing to do these days, making the massive web of rabbitholes linked via a web - this is where I am applying my greatest efforts, especially in /tok/ related subject(s). Speaking of that board, it was nice chatting earlier this week and will contact you as planned. Pretty sure you know who I am. Seems we have more in common than just the esoteric. spent a lot of time on LSD too around the triplet-dooftrance, kek Give me a few weeks to sort sheckel management and I'd be keen to donate for something neat. Bone handle knife possible?
This is our destiny. This is coming from the user that said in 2005 'One cable to rule them all' in regards to UTP/Rj45 aka internet connectivity taking over as content and medium of distribution. Predicting tech trends is part of what I do and this is a certainty (IPFS or similar) to me. That and some other tech we need to develop to circumvent the jew owned fibre networks, aka the blatant naurus sniffing CIA/NSAnigger shit. quantum /pol2pol/ You all must realize though, when we achieve this we could be classified as enemy combatants or terrorists if they get creative with law and craft appropriate false flags. An un-pozzed network is one of the greatest threats to these kikes in peacetime or wartime. When they don't have control or ability to access their hardware backdoors they have in all of our computers, they lose. Inb4 muh IME - disabling IME is just the obvious surface of this
Hezbollah 2006, case in point. Their self made comms network survived the kikes and they couldn't even take out their deep and well made bunker systems (thanks to advice from Best Korea).
(checked)
This. I really don't want to post this openly but I'm sure you can read between the lines. Much like Liveleak, the oldfags will just drift away more and more until an appropriate haven is found. Next summer will be worse, as the ratio worsens this will be our migration rallying call to seek greener and less newfag friendly pastures. I wonder if there is a way to vet incoming users. That would be excellent as the kikeshills barely study subject matter, before attempting crapping of threads these days, so we could weed them out along with newfags..
Hudson Howard
like i said, boards like these were explored during the 8ch's last hack and subsequent multi-day downtime. they're all dead. because we're all here lol.
i wonder if it would even handle the load. 8ch has a .onion, which Holla Forums blocks on the regular to prevent trolls and who knows else why, but if the entire population moved to a .onion, would the tor network be able to handle it? i doubt it.
Jaxson Lewis
also that all of these p2p networks rely on a core principal, everyone hosts, which means your ip address is exposed in the hosting process, even if it's just a fragment of the data, just like a torrent.
retroshare is a great example of this, it's fully p2p, though retroshare is shit and is written in java, it's fully p2p, a group of people could easily setup their own node, with no outside servers, but everyone's ip address is exposed.
the only way to prevent this is to use tor, which it has full support for, but it requires popping your own .onion. it even has support for linking .onion and non-.onion nodes, it get's complicated, but fully p2p and fully anonymous are not compatible, it's difficult, you can make retroshare fully p2p and fully anonymous, over tor, but then your dealing with tor's natural bandwidth problems.
Jaxon Perry
Isn't the entire point of I2P to be anonymous? I don't think your IP address is exposed. That would be true if you were using NNTPchan in clearnet though.
We'll see about bandwidth, might have to go 2ch style text only.

Austin Thomas
Give it another year or so I'd say, or if they get decent OCR Makhov bots going or we have another shoah from halfchan. But that would imply skill and capability, which our enemy seems to have less and less of as time goes on. They seem to resort to scatter gun shilling of low value these days. TFW you almost miss the mid 00s JIDFniggers
P2P stuff (mostly retroshare for me) sucks for hit and run use but yeah if you leave it on, it's usually synced well and not half bad. Faster than fucking normfag-tier skype and other centralised shit ffs. Remember, as more nodes join the speed will increase.
Robert Hall

I think it was Holla Forums in 2007. Unlike my friends going out and getting into degeneracy, my teenage years were spent playing Runescape, browsing 4chan, and listening to metal. Eventually I went to Holla Forums and it felt like being back on Holla Forums for the first time, then I somehow found this place in the first exodus. I don't even remember how news spread of Holla Forums but I do remember moot losing his shit and the hotpockets banning all mention of this place.
For me the most dangerous part of nostalgia in the information age is that we can almost relive it, and it becomes possible to be eternally stuck in adolescence despite outwardly being an adult. This is common to all Gen Y and millennials, in my experience. When I started replaying Oblivion this year I realised just how pernicious this phenomenon of trying to relive the past can be. I thought I'd grow out of it I almost did, but I don't regret a thing
Jace Sanders
When the future looks as bleak as it does and knowing the hard decisions we're all going to have to make. It's a safe place for us.
I was a moderator on Runehq back in 2006. That summer I found 7chan,. and it changed my life. We'll be shitposting together forever, user. Heaven or hell, Valhalla or Hel. We'll be doing this till we are one foot in the grave.
And I don't regret any of it. At all.
Chase Bennett
It's a great and sad moment when you realize you were right all along, even back then. It was your friends that were the dumb ones.
Protip: It feels like that for everyone, my boomer parents still talk about the trends and keep playing the tracks that were popular in their time. In our case, imageboards/the internet as a whole are still new terrain, so of course they're associated with the youth because we by definition were the first ones to use them properly. In time, imageboards will become known as the domain of the old farts that once upon a time pulled civilization back from the brink and solved the Jewish problem once and for all. It's not worth obsessing over living a 'normal' life, that sort standard guarantees you wouldn't achieve greatness. We know what we're doing, and we know better than everyone else as these last few years have shown - you shouldn't need their validation, because they're not as competent as us anyway.

Jayden Campbell
The malice was striking, but it was also a testament to how stupid and incompetent the media is. They thought they had a perfect white-on-black-violence narrative and went all in on that without doing any research into the facts whatsoever. The narrative started to fall apart, in hilarious fashion, the moment the trial started, but by that time all the networks had tried to meme it as the trial of the century and had no choice but to keep the spotlight on it. They were still trying to push the evil white guy angle even after the defense hauled Zim's mom on the stand, a 4'11, coffee-colored hispanic woman with an impenetrable accent.
Grayson Roberts

That's a definite improvement, even if it doesn't take advantage of some of the LOD switches that are supposed to improve polycount greatly specifically for things like this, but I still see a problem. When it's not some degenerate wasting talent making shitty porn, it's still just fucking hat fortress 2. Is there anything new and original using original or at lest just not the cartoon F2P meme game? Every game under the sun gets modelrips and rigs for garry's mod for mostly meme posing and making RP shit, but SFM is left with what I can best describe as the equivalent of doing nothing but making Wojak edits for 10 years. There's good stuff there but it's too much the same.
Very heavily meme'd board. "Everything I don't like is fudd", "lol Holla Forums is dumb because reasons why they think we're friends anyone want to buy a galil aren't tavors great", "10millimemeter is best ammo type always ignore the fact nobody uses it". Sad.
Easy to make your database freely available when you have teams combing through the site rewriting everything to fit the narrative.
TOR ends up getting banned because shills find it an easy way to spam and shill through, then immediately turn around with a regular VPN after the service ends up being banned for a typical max of 3 days and shill on their VPNs that the "mods are bad evilcompromise doublebad they banned tor they want your ips exodus to shillchan now". Very common shilling tactic in recent times, do something to shit the place up, then turn around and proclaim defeat and despair on another IP to claim the board has gone to shit and something needs to happen.
Garbage. Because we all know here at Holla Forums how effective that captcha is, just ignore all the botspam floods.
Go back to /a/, fag. There is no non-shill term for using more than one board on a site.

2007 was also the Hal Turner raids. I took part in them. I was 18 in 2007. Thinking back on those years I miss them. I had my first girlfriend in 2006 that I met over the internet on a game. It's funny the odds of that meeting a girl on the internet the same age as me in 2006 of all years back then the internet was still dominated by males. When I first met my girlfriend on the internet back then I spent months talking to her online thinking that she was a guy. That was just the assumption you made back then that everybody you encountered on the internet was a guy. I met her only once in the fall of 2006 and after that I started ignoring her. She spent like a year trying to talk to me while I was partying and doing stupid shit but she eventually gave up.

Two or so years ago, I was looking through my old backups and found the old 4chan craptastrophe flashes. Just for shits and giggles, I watched them again and a wave of unpleasant nostalgia washed over me. I'm an oldfag. I found 4chan in 2005. But I hadn't realized just how much things have changed. Things moved slowly, culture evolved. Even the chans are now mainstream.
I want my old internet back. There are too many normies shitting it up. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc are the absolute worst things that could have happened to our internet. We lost something - some je ne sais quoi - in the last twelve years. Like hipsters who bring their organic free-trade upcycled conflict-free overpriced vegan coffee shops and their fake BCGs causing a small town to lose its charm and become another San Fransisco, Portland, or Seattle.
Life was simpler back then. I was a freshman in high school. The internet was still young and smartphones weren't in everyone's pocket. There was still a barrier to entry that just isn't present, now. As a kid, I was an outcast - like I imagine most of you fags were or still are. Even though I didn't know your names, faces, or where you lived, you were my best friends. After school, I would get home to an empty house and I would have 4-6 uninterrupted hours. Those were the days.
If I had a time machine, I would redo the years 2005-2009 ad infinitum. Those were the best years for me. Even if it meant going through puberty again, redoing high school, watching my parents divorce, or my pets dying over and over. When I found those flash videos, I realized that something was missing. Something that had been slowly eroded.

I still remember the parody porno version of ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny ; hell I remember back when newgrounds actually had swf movies not fucking stream video. I remember saving those to my comp and watching them off the internet. damn has it been ten years already? I miss nexus war, and my old buds in Urban Dead.

This place reminds me of a BBS I used to call from 87-91 that was anonymous, had hacking files, wares, and somehow stayed afloat until we all refound ourselves on Usenet, Twitter, and now here.
The spirit never dies.

I know its lame to call it that but what else would you call faggots calling themselves "anonymous" on Twitter with their face and name?

Also even if threads got derailed no one gave a shit. Topics were not so fucking serious as they are today.

I'm happier tbh, I can tell Holla Forums has some of the same anons I circle jerked with 10 years ago and I discovered lainchan as well.

I figured after college I would start my career and no longer spend long nights on chans, shut in because I was always studying for an exam. Now I shitpost from a desk all day while bossing people around.

Meh, Scientology faggots deserved what they got. I'm not ashamed of meming them.

Remember Amanda Cummings? The human bumper sticker? Her Facebook raids made the news and Congress person Grimm called out for everyone to be arrested. KYM has the images but looks like they compressed the shit out of everything.
Kayden Morales
BTW it was Grimm that got arrested layer for being corrupt, go figure

Redpilled fully by 4chon. Anyone else? Not the shitty one either. The one that had only like 2 boards.

for me it was the Zimmerman trials that solidified 4chan and later Holla Forums as my primary website of choice. Before that i supporte scientology and helped spread awareness but didnt browse the site.
Then GG happened and when it was connected to Digra i immediately went to the Holla Forums thread and i've been here since.
I still remember the night i accepted that HItler was the good guy. I was in a cold sweat, my eyes were wide open and i was holding my head looking down at the desk at nothing. I wanted to cry but i knew it would do nothing and my people didnt need tears they needed action. I remember for the first time in my life truly feeling shame in my country. I could always justify Vietnam with "fuck the commies" and the ME war that i knew of as "fuck terrorists" but when i realized the Holocaust never happened i felt true shame in my Country.
I'm trying to write books that are red pilled at their core and with their message to try and influence people but i keep getting stuck on how to start the damn book. I know the middle parts but still.

Incredible how far it's come, and the amount of hidden knowledge that is available to us so easily. I think back to some of the more retarded shit I used to enjoy back on Holla Forums and compare it to now, where I sometimes feel as though I've sat in on a bilderburg meeting, or as in the case of some of the esoteric threads, have opened the ark of the covenant or something. There was one massive esoteric thread back in summer of 14 where I got genuinely frightened of what I was learning. It kept me up all night, no coffee or adderall or whatever, just my eyes glued to the screen. I remember seeing the sun rising and telling myself that I can't go that far down the rabbit hole. There are some things I will leave to mystery. I mean I felt the presence of divinity I swear. Couldn't get it outta my mind that whole day.

If you looked at it from a professional perspective, that whole trial was a trainwreck from start to finish. Awful attempts at prosecution ranging from misguided to extremely fucking lazy, witnesses who only made the defendant look better because they lied through their teeth (and got caught, easily), a media narrative so outlandish and inaccurate that even normalfags knew it was wrong. Top it off with everything like that first webm that was an everyday occurrence, and you have the "Trial of the Century" alright.

I remember when Encyclopedia Dramatica was controversial among imageboard users. Remember the wordfilter Encyclopedia Newfagia?
ED was singlehandedly blamed for creating a generation of newfags who tainted all imageboards despite the moderator's best efforts to purge them.
Imagine you're at the movies with your friends. You have some in-jokes and you rib each other for fun. Then, someone approaches your group with the Encyclopedia Yourfriendsica. He has studied the banter. He pretends that he's been one of your friends all along, using your in-jokes–often incorrectly. When someone makes a joke in a weird way, he corrects him with the textbook definition of your in-joke.
Eventually, more of them join your group. Eventually, your friends leave, and the group becomes a group of people impersonating your group of friends. The cycle continues indefinitely until the theater goes out of business.
By the point, the damage had been done, so the advent of cancerous sites like KnowYourMeme all made ED look quaint by comparison.
