THE ONLY WAY 8CHAN CAN GET MONEY IS THROUGH ADS

THE ONLY WAY 8CHAN GETS MORE AD MONEY IS IF WE BRING MORE USERS TO THIS SITE

SO FUCK YOU, YOU SELFISH XENOPHOBIC CUNTS. YOU'RE WILLING TO RISK 8CHAN DYING SO YOU CAN BE PART OF SOME BULLSHIT "EPIC NEWFAG-FREE LE SECRET CLUB."

SO FUCK YOU, GODDAMNIT, WE NEED TO FUCKING ADVERTISE. WE NEED TO BRING MORE USERS HERE OR ELSE WE'RE ALL GOING TO FUCKING SUFFER WHEN 2CH PULLS THE PLUG.

YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR FUCKING COOL KIDS ONLY CLUB. GET THIS THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULLS AND SUCK IT THE FUCK UP.

Eat shit, ledditor enabling faggot. If the only way this website can survive is to pander to the lowest denominator of normalfag trash then it's better to just let it die. I don't give a fuck.

/intl/ did nothing wrong. The only people mad at them are normalfags who have no respect/don't understand chan culture.


2bea16 No.79648

>>79647

agreed. if new people want to come on their own, let them, but the admin shouldn't be shilling the site in places where the community is completely incompatible with imageboard culture.

even if this site dies, the people who originally built its culture will still exist. Nothing of value will have been lost.

Guess what? Some of us here don't give a shit about "traditional chan culture"

Because you know why? It's because "chan culture" is a broad thing that varies from person to person. If you say chan culture is "post anonymously" I'd be cool with that. But you guys seem to think dubs, le rarest peepee maymays, and whatever regurgitated thing from 4chan must be preserved at all costs.

Im cool with stuff considerred classic "chan culture", especially boards that try to preserve that, but we need breathing room man. We NEED originality. Instead you faggots are spreading around stale maymays from before the exodus (like LOL threads) while much of 4chan has moved on from a lot of them. Most of the images from here are from 4chan, yet people take so much pride in "8chan culture". The only real thing different about this site is the setup and the community. So really whats so bad about letting redditors in? the mods who dont want them on certain boards will ban them, and shit will move on.


2bea16 No.79652

>>79651

everything you posted is the very reason why moderation, and moderation enablers, are such bad news. They cause boards to stagnate by stifling them of creativity.

Whether you agree with the raid or not, it's a fact that more redditors coming to 8chan means that even our current boards will become more heavily moderated as the redditors spread across the site and put pressure on the mods to enforce stricter moderation more in line with what they're used to.

ledditors are the absolute worst kind of users you want to bring into a chan-based website. Everything about reddit and it's userbase is inherently incompatible with chans. They're one of the most retarded types of normalfags in the entire internet. Their political views aren't relevant to this, although I'm 100% the site would become a lot more librul as a whole since the overwhelming majority of ledditards are libruls.

>>79651

I'll let this guy speak for me: >>25659

If cripplekike wanted a reddit clone so much, then maybe he should have just made a normal website with reddit-like features instead of a chan.

>then maybe he should have just made a normal website with reddit-like features instead of a chan.

but then he couldn't have capitalized off of imageboard users right as 4chan was imploding! How else could he have made a living off of us?

yes I know this site existed long before gamergate, but 4chan's death has been in the works for years now

Really wish we were on masterchan or some other alternative right now. I always knew it wouldn't be a very good idea to migrate to the website of a guy who already had a bad record with administrating chans.

moot was trying to make the site more normalfag/SJW friendly in order to possibly sell it to Gawker or some other third party. cripplekike is trying to make the site more friendly to ledditors/newfags in order to keep keep the shekel flow strong. There is really no difference when put into this perspective. Their end goal is the same; rack off money at the expense of their longtime userbases.

Fuck off, /intl/. No one buys your shit and trying to pretend anyone that thinks you're a bunch of stupid fucking tools of goons is just a normalfag isn't something anyone's buying.

>chan culture.

I don't know what you exactly understand by that, but some years ago, already under a normalfag exterior, reddit had more classic, unadulterated and fun anonymous culture than this site has ever witnessed. Many people from 4chan went there because for them the good times were over.

You faggots on the other hand want to preserve some dust and bones from a bygone era. An era some of you didn't even experience and most of you do not understand. The truth is that you people are hipsters.

Besides that you can't help biting the hand that feeds you. Hotwheels has to do exactly as you say on his site, and if he doesn't, he is a traitor. Notwithstanding the fact that you not only can you make your own chan, you can actually make your own obscure little board on his site, with zero effort, whenever you want.

What the fuck is wrong with you people.

that's bullshit and you know it

all I want him to do is to keep doing what he's been doing from the start: have a policy of non-intervention and minimal rules.

the real traitors are the people who want him to violate his principles and the principles of the site by deleting /intll/ or adding new global rules, just because they are so angry about what's happened that they aren't thinking clearly.

/intl/ here

the irony is that I've been here since september and have been donating to the site when I can.

That's more than most of these redditors will ever be able to say. They think pressuring the admin to abandon his principles is "supporting the site".


6be2b8 No.80630

>>80628

this whole gay drama is exactly why no one ever wanted reddit here in the first place, anon boards get raided, they raid the raiders and everyone has fun, reddit gets their board raided and now its serious business and we need to fundamentally change our culture and the site for a small minority of people no one but Freddit wants here, its disgusting that in one year Freddit is betraying the userbase for cash ala moot instead of working towards more reasonable ways to increase funding/cut costs for the site.

Reddit ruined Halfchan, they will ruin 8chan and they will ruin all the other chans that come after that, they truly are the niggers of the internet


2bea16 No.80638

8chan has taught me that most people don't actually like free speech, even if they say they do. Even though the only rule is the global rule, most major boards have decided to add a bunch of extra rules on top of it.

/a/ bans for bad grammar, /pol/ bumplocks threads that don't support National Socialism, /gamergatehq/ bans any post critical of its mods, and I don't even know what the fuck Mark is doing over at /v/.

It kind of explains why liberty is in decline in Europe and America as a whole: every generation from the Boomers onward is filled with infantile pussies who would rather cuck their own freedom away so that they can have a parental figure to protect them from the "bad guys". These people are why the government can get away with spying on all of us. People value order more than they value freedom, because freedom is scary and unexpected things sometimes happen.

God forbid someone else triggers you.


6be2b8 No.80641

>>80638

i agree with everything but /a/'s always needed to be elitist or else worse autists would come in. I don't think its wrong for boards to have rules, just don't think we need any more global rules that interfere with the culture we have here, /v/ wants to ban spammers or funposting? nothing wrong there, there's always another board where you can have fun but global bans on raiding are unnecessary and only serve undesirable elements

Well, I always thought moot was the bigger man in this story.

Last time I checked, which is multiple times a day, 4chan is still there, same as always. While hotwheels is already willing to throw in the towel.

Moot did what hotwheels tries, but is struggling with. Namely, moot kept a site running while detaching himself from the drama; even when directed against him. Hotwheels tries to be cool and 'based', but he is now confronted with the fact that you can not please everyone, and he doesn't seem to take it well.

Mind you that moot also made these mistakes in the beginning. Taking sides and all that. But he learned along the way.

>Well, I always thought moot was the bigger man in this story.

moot just got bored with the site and wanted to sell it off, he's a cuckold but he managed to have a good few years on the site unlike Freddit who's already killing it in a year

>Last time I checked, which is multiple times a day, 4chan is still there, same as always. While hotwheels is already willing to throw in the towel.

first of all

>being a cuckchanner

4chan may still be up but be honest? why is 8chan here? its because halfchan became both ridden with cancer and unbearable moderation that drove users here, 4chan had enough redditors and newfags to keep the site up when anons left for here but can Freddit keep it up here if anons left in droves because he's already showing weakness and bending to Reddit?

>Moot did what hotwheels tries, but is struggling with. Namely, moot kept a site running while detaching himself from the drama; even when directed against him. Hotwheels tries to be cool and 'based', but he is now confronted with the fact that you can not please everyone, and he doesn't seem to take it well.

Some people aren't worthy of pleasing, rulecucks and redditors would most likely still stay without a global ban on raiding if they were actually intent on staying here and not just waiting here until voat gets its shit sorted out, if you can handle the hazing this isn't a place for you, every poster that's been here more than a few weeks knows that

>Mind you that moot also made these mistakes in the beginning. Taking sides and all that. But he learned along the way.

moot grew his site big enough while keeping it slightly less shittier than the major competitors at the time that he can just sit back, rake in ad revenue and 4chan pass shekels and wait for a potential buyer after the moderation completely sanitizes the site, Freddit is dependent on the people he wants to ban.

I have no fucking idea why people are getting so over defensive over people raiding a reddit board. /sjw/ got raided by everyone yet nobody said anything but when a board from reddit gets raided by everyone, they lose their fucking minds. What the fuck happened? This whole situation has been pathetic and poorly handled. The people who want /intl/ banned for a raid and want dramatically change this whole site are even more fucking pathetic. When the fuck did people on this site become a bunch of spineless retards?

8/a/ isn't even elitist. It's just dumb. It's like they saw an image board they liked once, but have no idea how to attain it so they just do what they think they need to without understanding anything behind the decisions. It's basically cargo cult image boarding.
