Sit down and let me tell you a story OP. It is the story of how I created /intl/. Just so we are clear I am not, and have never been the board owner /intl/ or any other /int*/ board.

Originally /intl/ was just a shitposting board that raided other boards occasionally, mostly to spread our memes and for fun. During this time I created the vast majority of /intl/ memes.

Back when we were just a small shitposting board occasionally we would try to get other boards to raid us for UIPs to keep our board in the top list, and to to reap the benefits of the dank memes created because of raids. At some point someone tried to subvert the board and turn the board into a personal army to attack 8ch, and /pol/ especially, because "muh rulecuckery".

In the le ebin sekrit plan xDDD screenshot that goes around a lot you can see me with the unknown flag trying to switch the board to attacking /leftypol/ and /gghq/. This was because I don't care about attacking /pol/. It is a good board, and will be as long as it is allowed to continue to do what it does. Of course my plan failed, and instead everyone continued to attack /pol/ as ordered by the subverters. I did not join any /pol/ raids. My meme making slowed down.

Eventually we were turned against the entire website, and constantly botspammed, and pushed to move to alternate imageboards where all the talk was 8ch meta. I stopped making memes, and /int*/ started to stagnate. The only memes that were used were old memes I created. There were some terrible attempts at OC like the teenbro crap later on that obviously no one really liked, but they went with because there was nothing else.

Now the board is all but dead, spread between alternate imageboards where they are allowed to talk 8ch meta. Some stayed here, and those are the true /int*/ users. The rest just shills trying to subvert our shitposting board into their personal army against 8ch and /pol/.

Shills will say shit like "the herd chose freech so we should migrate with the herd" this is just "listen and believe" applied to old /int*/ culture. I would create a new /int*/ board, but I know this would be a failure. On this site if you were to moderate anything at all you would be scolded as a rulecuck, but on any alternate imageboard that "the herd mirgrated to" they are allowed to do whatever it takes to keep their users without being labeled as rulecucks except by the few that aren't blind to hypocrisy of only 8ch hotpockets being rulecucks for moderating their boards against bot spam. And that is the story of /int*/. The end.

>"implying it wasn't a shitposting board, implying it was ever a board of serious discussion"

You are admitting that /int/ only allowed "serious discussion," which proves our point. We were not free on /int/.

That's why /intl/ was made: We were free on /intl/ to post whatever we wanted, including what you call "shitposting" or "serious discussion."

By the way, "serious discussion" or "shitposting" are 100% subjective terms that cannot be objectively defined, simply using them proves your lack of goon knowledge.

I was on /intl/ literally since day one, and for me it was always just a shitposting board.

The silly meta drama and insane amounts of butthurt that board somehow managed to get out of a significant part of 8chan's userbase were hilarious and definitely made it worth my time, but if you actually took anything posted there seriously you are an idiot and no better than the rulecucks we all used to laugh at.

Very, very few users from /intl/ hang around here anymore. By the time /ints/ came around, there were barely any of us left.

In the great scheme of things, /int*/ was a very brief existence. We lasted roughly a year. And no one other than us will ever really know what we were. Only those who were a part of it actually know the truth, and it's not something that can be explained easily.

But that's actually a good thing. A lot of it was based on how we were perceived. Here are some of the theories about who we were:

- A cadre of Illuminati Jews hell-bent on destroying this site and protecting their interests from the menace that is /pol/

- A coalition of tumblr and Reddit users subtly manipulating public opinion toward the left-wing and SJW policies

- Offshoots from Wizardchan seeking revenge against breddit for the evil he did to their site

- Offshoots from 4chan trying to stamp out the competition and sully breddit's name

- An IRC clique of avatarfags, animefags, namefags, and general circlejerkers intending to shitpost as much as humanly possible

Were any of those correct? None? Was it a mix of interests? Or did the community took itself too seriously? Or not seriously enough?

That's a big part of what composed the /int*/ experience. Watching all of you scurrying about trying to piece together clues for our identity, projecting your demons onto us, demanding breddit to shut us down, organizing raids and spam attacks, and celebrating when the menace seemed to be kept at bay by your valiant efforts, all that shit. It was a fucking blast. And most of the time we barely had to do anything. All that it took was a single thread cogitating the possibility of an initiative against a possible subcommunity, and you'd all go up in flames in various ways.

So it's not like we don't know what /int*/ was about. We do. Every /int*/ user does. But the point of view that matters isn't ours, but yours. Maybe there was something, maybe there was nothing. It doesn't matter. It never mattered, not for us. All we did, we did for you.

Were we not the best enemies you could ever wish for?

Pull your own head out of your fucking ass.

/intl/ was some teenbros who got kicked off of Warosu, gathering round to suck some swiss proxy dick. Without the post ironic humour of /jp/, teenbros aren't funny. If you actually succeeded in coming up with a meme that was amusing, you would have been liked. That's all you had to do, come up with something that was memorable and brought a smile to the face of anons. A memetic symbol that would represent the fight against rulecucks, just like Warosu did on /jp/. However the only thing you did was spam inane bullshit in the hope that it stuck.

Think what you like of yourselves. You will be remembered by the majority of 8chan anons as an unfunny failure.

when people misinterpret things as badly as your post does, I can't help but wonder how badly human history in general has been misinterpreted. I mean, if people can have such a poor understanding of events that they directly lived through and experienced, that only happened a few months ago, then who is to say that our understanding of history that happened centuries or millennia ago is even remotely close to being correct? How much throughout history has been rewritten or covered up? Is our general impression of life in the Roman Empire, or ancient Greece, or Nazi Germany, or Persia even remotely close to being correct, when we are only able to interpret those time periods through the lens of our own culture and through the biases of those who passed the information down to us from generation to generation? How many things about our current society are fucked up in ways that we aren't even aware of?

Anyway it's interesting to think about.

These two posts are the best descriptions of what /int*/ was. Put them together and you have basically the entire story of the culture of /int*/. The only part I can't confirm is the part where the guy said he made most of our memes. It is probably true tbh because it seems to line up with how things unfolded. I did notice what he said about the memes starting to dry up after he stopped so he is probably truthful. I'd estimate we only had a couple truly dedicated content creators with the rest being made by anyone that had an idea at the time. I remember the secret plan image because I was in that thread too. Wish I had the screenshot. That thread was one of those make a plan, do nothing, and watch our uips soar as we are lifted back up the board list

I've been around since Gamergay

/intl/ were snobby benis posters from /int/ that started getting pissed off about /pol/ seriousness and aligned with the Dud and his puppet-tier moderation to make /pol/ fun. After losing this battle and the Dud turning on /intl/ as the scapegoat to cover his own ass, /intl/ turned into freedumb fundamentalists and started terrorizing everyone by ironically shoving freedumb down their throats. That and revealing the Dud's spaghetti has basically been their entire history.

thing is, 8/pol/ was always serious. I remember during the December exodus people were bitching on /pol/ that the 4chan refugees would actually make 8chan /pol/ fun

everyone knows /intl/ tactics now and the fact that they're the only ones that go about shitposting on this site, so that combined with blowback from their own antics, they've retreated to Freech.net. It consists almost entirely of meta-posting, which is good because Board Drama is a guilty pleasure of mine.

but yeah, /fam/ goons that come over here and still act like /intl/ is still going on has gotten really long in the tooth. Its over boys, let it rest.

there was serious discussion, but in the beginning people still knew how to make things fun. at some point in time, the userbase of /pol/ became allergic to things like anime, which is a bit strange considering the context of things. The quality of discussion was much higher in the beginning, and the atmosphere was much lighter.

If you can't smell the Warosu from freech and gnfos, you are probably retarded. Just think about for a moment. When did it all start to go downhill? Back in January. What else happened in January? Oh yeah! This came out:

http://www.file-upload.net/download-10803231/-janiteam.rar.html

Shortly after this, Warosu closed /ghost/ and the teenbros nested in /intl/, imitated you guys and destroyed it from within. Incompetent moderation or the lack thereof gave your board the rest. You should also stop forgetting that you got attention from the entire site since June, not since January. Its bad enough that a few people who also played peek-a-boo on your board may turn out to be actual criminals over fucking Gamergate. At least you haven't had to deal with Autphag.

If you still think that the teenbros' behavior wouldn't inspire copycats, you may haven't payed attention when this was going on. One quarter year later and people are facing prison over inter board drama now. 8chan's design gives you the tools to escape bogus moderation but it doesn't protect people from their own stupidity, teaches each volunteer and BO about all troll groups in existence, heals 5 kinds of cancer or make anime real.

These posters have come quite close to the truth of the matter.

/int/ and all its successor boards have been the battlefield of a shadow war waged between different /jp/ splinter factions ever since the beginning of 2015. Teenbros from Warosu, GNFOS rejects, /2hu/ GET stealers, and various other shitposters and secretive IRC circles all congregated on /int*/ to extend their influence over the imageboard world and to sow chaos and disunion among 8chan's userbase.

The reason the different raids, spam attacks and divide & conquer operations carried out by /int*/ seemed so effective despite the board's apparent disorganized and chaotic nature lies in the fact that they were performed by many different groups who merely used /int*/ as a central gathering place, as well as a scapegoat to hide their own true agenda.

The motivations involved in these events were manyfold; some of the participants simply enjoyed the shitposting and shitstirring, others had a legitimate interest in creating chaos and disparity, or got a kick out of fighting a "battle" against a moderation they perceived as corrupt and hostile to their views. In any case, /int*/ was never quite as monolithic a community as we initially thought; it merely became home to a number of forces which have been trying to influence the world of imageboards for years now.
