I realized today Soma being a /int/ mod is the reason for like 90% of 8chan's drama. Imagine if he had never been a mod.
-lowcard does fuck all so /int/ could have developed into whatever the users wanted
-sanyafag /pol/mod only went to /int/ and precipitated the April 1st shenanigans because Soma had made it an avatarfag safespace
-no Soma no need for /intl/ and the tremendous amount of analpain it has caused wouldn't have happened
Soma was truly killing 8chan before /intl/ popularized doing it.
