I was here during Sup Forums harbor and the cuckening, I still don't believe moot stepped aside because we found out he was being cucked by some journalist jew he was being bagboy for.
I think moot endured a lot more than to just let an entire site go like that. It has to be something bigger like CIA.
he stepped aside so he could get a bigyboy job at google to impress all of his sjw friends.
Matthew Mitchell
Perhaps, but it's all old news now.
Julian Ramirez
What exactly is he supposed to be doing for work now?
Brayden Clark
There was something going on, no ones heard of him since he "starting working for google"
Sup Forums harbor lasted over a month, constant attack, there was only a few of us holding the line, we've cone so far since then....
Isaiah Martin
this is the canadian shitpost i've heard so much about
Isaac Anderson
He is a pedophile and a plagarist IP theif. LOL cats were invented 3yrs before Sup Forums existed.
Chase Ross
This board is one big honeypot to bag and tag us. Perhaps moot saw the inevitable and decided to join forces with Google and salvage what he could.
John Ortiz
proofs on pedo claims?
Aiden Mitchell
What exactly happened during that? Oddly I was here before and after it happened, but not during.
Wyatt Moore
This. The fuck is he dong?
Michael Harris
>I CAN HAS CHEEZBURGER
Hunter White
Why would you want to bag and tag the criminally insane?
>death squad?
Dylan James
>weird and wonderful world of moot the meme master >i can has cheeseburger timeless
Andrew Rogers
I don't think he agreed with Sup Forums politically at all, he saw how dangerous our collective sentiment was becoming and he didn't want to be associated with the backlash. It was a smart move on his part, had he not stepped down there would have definitely been some negative articles and badly spun interviews over the past few years.
Live a good life, luggage lad. I will never forget you, even though you're really just some random faggot.
Xavier Edwards
He works for Google doing social engineering
Nicholas Roberts
Sup Forums harbor was a nightmare. That was a time when I realized I needed a break from Sup Forums.
Ian Long
What does that mean?
What exactly happened?
Jackson Thompson
Aside from a dancing robot, word filters, and annoying song, the captcha was removed which resulted in a flood of shitposts that rendered all discussion impossible. Sup Forums became unusable, which resulted in Sup Forums users migrating to other boards for a while. Some boards more gracious and hospitable than others.
Luis Green
For how long?
Jack Moore
anyone have the picture of moot after he jizzed all over himself?
Nathan Cruz
As the other user said, over a month. I don't know exactly how long because I didn't stick around.
Adam Martin
...
Colton Roberts
Did a specific event precipitate this decision?
Joseph Richardson
fappening was shit literally almost killed Sup Forums
Adrian Turner
He is working in Area 120, Google's internal startup incubator a la YC.
Jeremiah Taylor
YC?
What exactly does that mean he does all day?
Charles Richardson
Someone shat at his lawn in swastika-pattern, people started to look carefully at his life and it was also less safe. So he lied about selling the site, hired external management and kicked out some of the SJW crowd.
He is still in rule. Pol is constantly pressured. Any significant threads are moved to /bant/ and then professionally slided by shareblue.
Notice how almost no threads about Trump going full goyim lately?
Thomas Walker
It started with the rumor that moot was being cucked by an SJW he was dating at the time. He was shown carrying her luggage for her, hence, he came to be called "luggage lad". It was also believed that Sup Forums shitposted some SJW to death, but this was unverified.
I believe the SJW he was dating was also involved in gamergate, so Moot had a stake in gamergate and its repercussions, by extension. Given that Sup Forums in general was investigating gamergate, Sup Forums and Sup Forums in particular, Moot took his wrath out on Sup Forums.
Asher Gray
Yeah I've heard about that before I didn't know it was what directly lead to pol getting fucked with.
Caleb Ortiz
Ycombinator, famous startup incubator. Google was tired of losing engineers to startups, they are attempting to create startups within Google. Keep your paycheck, skip Perf, but also none of the startup upside.
Not sure what Moot is doing exactly, he is some sort of senior product manager, not even director level last I checked.
He also wasn't memeing at all, didn't even have a McMillen index.
Blake Lopez
cuckening is not fappening you newfag
go read a book
Parker Garcia
I think it was because moot was leaving Sup Forums and he hated that we called him a cuck
Blake Moore
>didn't stick around It was 3 weeks before the "8 steps of cuckholding" recording was removed. Another few days and the captcha was put back and word filters removed.
You all abandoned me. For awhile there it was just me and thread thread long dickepedes from /s4s/.
For any newfags that want to see what the most brutal raid in Sup Forums history that reduced Sup Forums oldfags to tears, behold: youtu.be/V0lMrFMYKv8
Nicholas Gray
He kept saying “they” a lot as to why he was quitting in his good bye video. It’s possible it was them.
Cameron Harris
So like is he marketing products, designing something, what sort of work is a senior product manager at Google doing?
Charles Garcia
Hey moot I know it’s you, fuck you cunt you called me a faggot on more than one occasion
Tyler Hernandez
............................didn't read lol
Just look at this place, of course CIANIGGERS and all their cuckfriends are running it. The thing is, they will all get wiped and their families enslaved once THE LORD returns. We'll see who has the last laugh. Moot may have just saved his own soul.
Leo White
These sites are monsterous to maintain and drain a considerable portion of a person's time and resources.
I've seen this same thing happen at other sites like LS1Tech and offtopic
Jason Morales
He's probably sweating Perf under a shitty manager, eating three meals a day on campus, and building another fucking messaging app.
Hunter Robinson
I thought he went to go work at google? Was that just a joke? Why haven't we heard a single thing about him since he left?
Luis Hall
Perf?
Robert Rogers
moot is and always was a cuck, Sup Forums was always a burden to him and if you've been around long enough you know Sup Forums's infamy specifically Sup Forums at the time was a huge weight on his back he constantly hated having to deal with. he was a bitch boy who was hugely overshadowed by the success of the thing he created im sure it caused huge pains for him to see the image of Sup Forums he had versus the reality of what it became.
Jayden White
I remember when Moore said flags were here to stay on pol and his last wish was for mods to keep flags on here. The mods instantly took away the flags and pissed on his last wish and Sup Forums livestream.
Christian Baker
He had an Instagram but /qa/ found it and he made it private. He wants to move on from it but for the rest of his life people will be pointing at him and whispering to their friends "that's the guy that started Sup Forums."
Jayden Howard
moot had been shopping Sup Forums around to buyers already for a while, and he was hoping to unload it on a more left-leaning pub like gawker. problem was mostly Sup Forums, however, under whose banner a lot of anti-sjw ops were being organized. nobody wanted to touch Sup Forums with a 50ft pole between Sup Forums and the filthy legacy of Sup Forums.
moot had also been dealing for years with LE interferences and info submission requirements when some shit went down that could be tied back to Sup Forums. stressful bullshit to deal with when you're not being compensated in any meaningful way and you just want to shitpost animus.
anyway the night that moot finally broke I think was Dec 6th 2014 when the furry convention in chicago was gassed. LE demanded moot freeze the board for several hours, and moot was 100% positive some Sup Forumslock did the gassing even though there was no evidence of it. but he was super fucking drunk and just nuked Sup Forums for petty vengeance. this was Sup Forums Harbor and was probably the biggest outflux from Sup Forums over to the cripple-site.
pretty sure that's the day he decided to sell Sup Forums to whomever would take it, for whatever they would give him, because it was just a downward spiral from there in terms of board quality and shitposting.
anyway I dont think he was somehow pressured into it in any direct way, I think he was just sick of the bullshit associated with running this site without getting paid to actually run it
Parker James
This. He was a fag, but he was /ourfag/
Landon Kelly
He's clearly talking about performance evaluations you dense fucking inbred meme flag moron. I literally clean toilets and I could tell what he was talking about.
Kevin Jones
He was a lot of fun in the early days but you could tell he was getting bitter. By the time Gamergate hit he hated the user base.
Connor Scott
no i'd say it was long before that, probably around the time he was called to court by the feds, the whole don't mess with football thing and other antics of old Sup Forums had already sown the seeds of disdain he had towards imageboards.
Jaxon Martinez
Don't mess with football? I came on board in 2008. I had been browsing Encyclopedia Dramatica for a few years and finally got bored enough in late fall to start browsing Sup Forums itself.
Luke Rogers
it was a prank where Sup Forums called in bomb threats to nfl stadiums caused a huge scare and got moot into a lot of trouble.
Leo Bailey
Nobody cares. Fuck moot, he was a faggot.
Ryan Ward
He wasn't even gay, I used to hit on him all the time when he would post on /ck/.
Brandon Cook
This would fit the available facts pretty well. Can you offer some kind of proof for any of this, or are you just speculating? I'm way more conspiratorial about it. I don't think moot actually left at all or sold the site to Hiroshima.
I think he sold out to Google and took an advisory position for the linguistic/memetic analytics they're doing....mostly for U.S. government alphabet agencies.
Thomas Garcia
This is the best video explaining moot' s relationship with Sup Forums. Literally just the end scene of fight club with name tags. youtu.be/FNisdgiiYQA
Jaxon Murphy
Gassed with what?
Jeremiah Clark
Literally who?
Jose Sanders
Would explain why the captcha has me picking bridges,cars and signs like I'm teaching their AI how to identify shit. I also pick the wrong thing and it still verifies, so when your self-driving car runs off a bridge it's probably my fault.
Samuel Parker
i'm sure he's glowing like a motherfucker these days
Brandon Brown
...
James Morris
chlorine, look it up vids, its funny as fuck
checked for truth. i hope i'm more right than you are about it because your scenario is spookier.
Bentley Rodriguez
that shit was fun, they shut us down so I shut down the other boards by spamming Sup Forums-tier stuff. Since they wanted to be kikes, i'll be a turbo one.
Colton Diaz
they know you're picking the wrong thing. one of the annoying things about recaptcha is that google is already pretty certain about who is a human and who is a bot. they can tell by the mouse behavior on the recaptcha with the simple checkmark box, along with some other analytics. the AI training shit is completely unnecessary.
Nathan Green
Thank you for believing
Jaxon Brown
If that were remotely true, all of the books on Google books would read nigger nigger nigger.
Luke Lopez
i honestly want to hack the english language and completely repurpose nigger as a slur for glowing see eye eh
Evan Gray
Trump got the japs to buy it because he loves Sup Forums and the japs are just as racist as us whites.
Adrian Torres
Are you signed into Gmail? For some reason that makes the level of captcha harder for me.
Benjamin Peterson
i don't doubt that they hired him for an advisory role probably for their a.i learning or analytics like you said, but im positive the research from directly browsing Sup Forums would be way more effective then he could, hell he barely understood any of the board culture, his threads he used to make where he asked questions always showed how little he really understood Sup Forums.
Isaac Evans
I assume he wanted a real life and being the king of Sup Forums wasn't a real life.
Also why does no one talk about gook moot anymore.
Luis Martin
You're all full of shit, he's working for the NSA. Motherfucker was in Raqqa supervising fiber laying and setting up the /sg/ honeypot.
Tyler Thomas
also both of our scenarios could be true actually, fuck
Nicholas Hughes
He refused to wield the power he had at his disposal. Sup Forums was his personal army.
Jordan Morales
Ask lowtax why moot was banned and Sup Forums was founded....
But yes, I think moot realized he needed to leave. Nobody knows what he does at "Google" but Google does a lot of cyber research and as early as 2008 Google admitted to manufacturing opinion / propaganda for al gore
Parker Ortiz
He was somewhat of a normie-ish nerd given his website's userbase. That was always his contradiction. He had a life outside of the website, more than some users.
Jack Lopez
>the meme master hahaha what a faggot.
Parker Myers
From Something Awful? What was he accused of posting there?
Wyatt Gray
You are so newfag it hurts. Google it you retarded faggot.
Eli Mitchell
From late November 2014- early January 2015. I think anyway. Plus we had a recording of some cuck queen playing in the background, and later had about 3 days of images not showing up
Mason Rivera
see thats what i meant when i said the site hugely overshadowed him, he wasn't a good fit so it makes sense for him to sell i don't think their is some bigger consipiracy just a scenario where your creation requires someone with bigger shoes to take the reigns than you have the capability of providing.
James Butler
nah, started dec. 6th see
Luke Cooper
Gook moot doesn't really do anything. When that NeoGaf shit went down he was asking anons why they weren't allowed to discuss it in Sup Forums, as if they knew. Also it's pretty much an established fact he's data mining phone posters.
That being said, moot couldn't have sold to any one better than the founder of 2chan. We're lucky it was that weird jap bastard and not say, some Reddit tier kike admin that made changes.
James Price
Ok I know he was banned from Something Awful, I take it you are saying it was for posting pedo stuff on there?
Joseph Russell
I fucking forgot about that, old captcha only had one word that was real and the second you could write whatever you wanted.
Kayden Wilson
You're thinking about Shii. I'm not sure if Moot was ever banned from SA. He was at least active there for years after Sup Forums was farted out as a dumb experiment by bored RH/SADCHUB niggers.
Jordan Howard
He left after it was getting too hot for him Can't say I blame him, but this is most definitely a CIA honeypot albeit a very low priority one now. Don't say anything incriminating and you're fine.
Mason Sanchez
Same fagging my own post but you gotta admit, this is pretty based.
Nathaniel White
That is part of the lore of this site is that Moot was banned from Something Awful and thus founded this site. I just am unfamiliar as to what specifically he was banned for but anons here are implying that it was for posting child porn (I'm not sure if animated or not).
Chase Watson
no way, we are so low test i doubt we are even a blip on their radar, maybe an analyst scims through the site in his free time or some shit but i honestly doubt we are relevant in the intelligence sphere at all. if anything we are just that dumb site that makes everyone laugh during their coffee breaks. don't let the scizophrenia take hold pops
Easton Martin
Too late. But, I also dgaf.
David Brown
Top Kek LARP
Gabriel Sanders
the most successful goon project...
Joseph Clark
Explain plz for a n00b.
John Bennett
what does it mean when captcha doesn't prompt me with those images and goes straight to 'I'm not a robot' with the checkmark?
Bentley Stewart
what I am saying is that the website is being held accountable for what goes on here and it got too tough for moot, too serious, which is fair enough, he move on away from the drama. no the CIA aren't monitoring this site but the admins are certainly being kept under strict rules now and are legally bound to report anything suspicious or potentially criminal of a serious nature, so nobody cares about muh drugz edgy threads but anything that involves something more serious like trying to do user shit with political targeting or interfering with a democratic process, doxing people or worse something which could be construed as incitement to domestic terrorism then they have to intervene. It's all fair enough if you think about it.
Matthew Morgan
its a running joke on SA that every project goons start as a group is destined for failure
James Green
He has integrity. I’m happy with moot leaving it in the hands of Nishimura. Best ending possible, in the situation
Grayson Walker
nah, he was the one who announced it in ADTRW and was active there for a few years afterwards. the lolicons who got purged that I can think of were shii, marshall banana, and kirtaner, although honestly anyone on RH was probably one of them. moot was just some guy iirc, didn't really have much of a posting career before Sup Forums got huge that's imageshack tho
