A lot better in every way

Sup Forums was never good

What were threads even about?

Its worse now with all the new faggotry

It was still better. I don't come here for good posts
Weeaboo shit and 9/11. Same as now, just without people saying "meme" every other sentence.

basically the same, more oc

no still just as shitty, its just you're now realizing how shitty it really is and was

t.newfriend

Did they use the word newfag in 2004

...

...

It was a simpler time. Even if it was shitty back then, I still laughed a lot more then at shitty stuff then I do now at equally shitty stuff.

>OC memes in every thread.
>Sup Forums is a mental warzone of trolls trolling trolls trolling newfags who are actually trolls trolling the troll trolling trolls trolling newfags.
>Trusted nothing on Sup Forums.
>Everyone using a VPN
>Newfags actually got V&
>"OP is not a faggot" was the highest compliment on Sup Forums

yes, but we evolved because people took being a faggot too seriously, now we call you friends.

You were just younger, also the way we perceive memes and humor in general has changed a lot

Why don't they get banned now? I hate moral faggotry and political faggotry thats killing Sup Forums

...

because everything is considered fiction, so if it is on Sup Forums you cant get banned, technically its never real to begin with. unless you post something against guidelines then you're done before you could hit f4

f5*

Back then it was like taking a shit, it looked like shit, it smelled like shit, if you looked at it to long it gave you a shit aftertaste, but taking the shit was enjoyable. Every time you returned to take another shit you knew it was going to be shit, but you liked the feeling of shitting. Sup Forums was always shit, we just have a warm toilet seat now, so it's not the same shit as before.

V& and B& are not the same thing.

B& is short for 'Banned' which is slang for "bannered". Bannered is when oldfags would fuck with newfags and get them pose with a confederate banner showing their faces, usually with 'white power' sharpied on their foreheads along with a swastika. The oldfags would then hack the newfag's computer (there were a lot of hackers on Sup Forums back then), store a bunch of illegal material on there, and send the IP address to the FBI.

V& is the results of getting bannered, short for "Vanned". The FBI would show up at your house in a big black van. Newfags parents would never hear from their kid again until they hard already been court martialed and thrown in high-sec juvie.

Sweet jebus that sounds harsh. Why ruin their lives

Not the same guy, but all in the name of kek my friend. FBI would eventually find out the newfag had malware, trace the origin of the contents to some remote VPN, and the newfag would go free. No consequence to their actual lives, but they learned a harsh lesson.

That's how we taught newfags to use VPNs. After a couple months the FBI would trace the hack to whatever anonymous server we were using and let the little shits go.

Their name ended up on a permanent watchlist as white supremacists though.

That I can kek at. I wish I knew about this place of wonders back than

There was an understanding that everyone was a fat virgin outcast freak. Even if you werent.
Which made for funnier content because people were free to act like oddballs.
Now the mentality is of normalfaggery and the status quo has shifted to bland standards.
I miss things like that guy fucking the cursed egyptian skull. Instead we have twenty social media threads

I blame tumblr cucks amd reddit fags

Ancientfag here with some semi-relevant information. It was a weird time. The site itself was kind of a buggy mess, and crashes weren't uncommon. Sup Forums culture was coming into its own, and it was still very oldnet. Lots of goons (mostly from FYAD and ADTRW) and futaba/2ch people populated it, and newfags were just starting to flood the place. It was a hell of a lot slower. Raids were just starting to become commonplace, and all of the humor was still dark but far sillier and less post-post-ironic.

If you looked at it now it would look a lot like teenagers who'd never been on Sup Forums acting like EPIC 4CHINZ ANONYMOOSE.

2004 just barely predated the magic years of 2005-2006, before Sup Forumsday, and the decline, and the dark era and then the reactionary era, and now the rise of Kek.

A Sup Forums culture reformation on the part of a site staff invested in classic webculture would be something amazing to see. The synthesis of /oldb/ philosophy with the insane traffic and meme power of modern Sup Forums would be astounding

How was 2005-2006?

this

So, 2005 and 2006 were sort of the highlights of Sup Forums (or well speicifically Sup Forums) history, in my book. Don't get me wrong, great stuff has been coming out of this place for years, but that was the time when the culture of image macros, OC circlejerking, and general silly/"cuhrazy" discussion began to actually integrate into proper raid culture.

Most of the new users were from YTMND, Fark, and even the dreaded gaiafaggots, when they weren't dumb kids who found out about it from their brothers.

Many of the all-time greatest raids and wins came from this time. Starting off with Ebaumsworld, Bibliocality, ZU, and then onwards and upwards. Basically it could never last as Sup Forums got more and more infamous, leading to the HACKERS ON STEROIDS incident, the widely-known Habbo raids, and the fake school shootings and bomb threats. This escalated until moot lost his shit and Sup Forums-day happened.

It's been sort of downhill since, but at least at the tail end Chris-Chan showed up for the first time.

it's weird for me to browse through multiple threads these days and not see teh word FAGGOT... oldfags know what i mean. The newkids imposed their standards on b and it wrecked the culture forever. B isn't hardcore anymore... now I bet all of your moms all know about Sup Forums

When did everyone stop being fags? Maybe 2014?

Because the staff doesn't care and it would be whined about as SJW influence. There needs to be a cultural shift.

People still get called faggot, faggot. It's just dumbshits who get offended and take it seriously.

Honestly, after the dumpster fire that was 2014-2015, our modern era of insane Sup Forums memes is a refresher. At least something is happening. I just wish it would stay on Sup Forums.

I can stand newfags but moral faggotry is whats killing this place

>Guy posts faces of 12 year olds thread(non nude)
>Hurr durr pedophile
>Omg degenerate
>I'll tell the cops

I realised it was too late when I got banned for posting Fry fucking his dog.

moralfaggots are autists, but only when they're actually being whiteknight purists. actual /pedo/shits are autists that gladly fucked off to infinitychan and now are slowly trickling back.

#make/b/pedoagain

You see, that's actual faggotry. And these are the same mods that allow a slow strangling death by social media threads and cyclical trump/trap/cuck/banana shit.

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if I could just gather up oldfags and dedicated scholars of 2000s webculture and begin a Sup Forums reformation.

yup

it wasn't a place where policing others was acceptable.

pretty sad because this used to be a great refuge for free speech

jailbait threads and lolicon are not the same thing as autistic edgekid /pedopol/ that gt massive victim complexes whenever someone tells them that fucking children doesn't make them a "hebephile", it just makes them disgusting and more importantly, obnoxious. Ban? no. never. just keep them well and truly fucked off to a loli board.

policing others is only acceptable when people shit up a place, i.e. furries, ponyfags, etc.

>Tfw will never raid cams like I did back then ever again
That shit was fun
I feel similarly about how everyone posts about BLACKED and pictures of black dicks. Aren't we supposed to fucking HATE niggers? So why does everyone post about BBC and "how can white bois even compete"? It's obviously only white guys that do this

fake and gay

It's shitposting, weird cuck fetishists, and mega-autistic Sup Forumsacks trying to racebait but having a little too much fixation on black dicks.

We've always been racist, but never SRSBIZNISS about it. Before swarmfront, that is.

Satan trips of truth

When I started lurking in 07ish, here were some common threads you don't really see anymore:
>gmask
>guro
>raids
>infographics
>asshole Jesus edits
>prank calls then blaming ebaumsworld
>spam threads of the same shit over and over again

I guess that last one's still around

It was still FYAD.

The racism used to be a joke and Sup Forums used to raid actual racists like Hal Turner. Sup Forums was always sort of faggy edgy but it was solely for laughs, but then the retards thought it was serious and ruined everything. Once the racist Sup Forumslacks arrived, so did the never ending stream of trap and cuck threads.

The faggot mods are what really killed \b\.

Fuck, i remember raids, we need another twitch raid

Sup Forums contributes to the overall cycle, but needs to be better moderated to its own board. Imagine if modern Sup Forums could coexist with classic Sup Forums.

the fags can't take the joke and are heavily represented on Sup Forums (obviously)

there are no roody-poos on Sup Forums... so they make a good straw man.

Animu and circle jerks

I remember raiding Runescape with like 1000 new users who were all like level 3 but mobbed individual high-ranked people in the Wild and killed them so they lost most their good gear. I was unfortunately too late for the habbo raid

Could you greentext the habbo raid?

I miss the infograph threads, coupon threads, asshole jesus, prank calls, especially raids

everyone's paranoid to go to any other website now though, fucking newfags learn a single term without all the definition then misuse it endlessly in the false hope it makes them look smart

"honeypot link LOL HONEY POT LINK! NO ONE GO TO THE LINK ITS HONEYPOT xD"

I'll do it
>Pools closed

Just google it. Info is easy to find.

Haha and blocking people in their rooms.

Now if we tried to get people to raid habbo they'd all be paranoid and afraid to even look up the site.

But I'm talking about Sup Forums though which is where all the old Sup Forums people went and then newfags invaded that too

habboraiddocumentary.ytmnd.com/

>pools closed

there used to be WAY more OC

people would actually work together, editing images and making jokes... and memes were born!

Only dorks used the term "meme" back then. Facebook had never even seen a meme until around 2014. People repost more and create far less these days

The old Sup Forums fags didn't go to Sup Forums. They just got older and stopped fucking with this dumb shit. Anyone who came from SA is in their 30s and 40s by now.

I came from YTMND. I'm 30. What rulebook are you getting this "X people did Y" shit from?

Also I'm just touristing Sup Forums for a day while I heal up from surgery.

>less trap threads
>no boxxy circlejerk threads
>none of this "doubles" nonsense

I'm the 07 lurker and I now primarily go on Sup Forums. Sup Forums's too polluted now, not enough original/interesting content, just bizarre porn. Sup Forums is stupid and racist, but they have done a decent job creating a board culture. Think about it, whenever Sup Forums makes the news nowadays it's because of Sup Forums.

>none of this "doubles" nonsense

Sup Forums fucking sucks.

Holy shit I'm pretty sure I remember being part of that or at least something similar happening. We all made characters with black skin and pink spiky hair and acted like nice and ganged up on people in the wildy just fucking around.

Illegal. Very illegal.

it's not a hard and fast ruleset

Shit I forgot about infographic threads. I miss those. It was nice to learn something irrelevant like how to make thermite at home or something in between calling people nigger faggot

If Sup Forums did more raids and mods acually cared and deleted the annoying threads this place would be better. I plan to do something soon though not a big happening but something that will be remembered

Old Sup Forums is just a continuation of the wild Wild West known as the dark internet. I mean, I came from TOTSE, and joined b around the same time I joined LUE (gamefags). Then the dark internet moved to LUElinks, and then I grew up and lost the trail. In short, I got laid, got a job, and now I come on here for giggles and shits occasionally.

hopefully you won't kill anyone this time maruseru

Well I'm trying to make a couple of cam whores and slurs I doxed kill themselves. Or at least black mail them to do some fucked shit like cut my name in their wrist

>slurs

I mean sluts

That's pretty edgy, make it funnier and I'm on board. Get them to wear pirate hats before they hang themselves or make them carve memes on themselves

was only me and none of you newfags! you're fucking losers u know that?? i'm the fucking real

Sup Forums's absolute worst time was 2008-2009. It's been uphill mostly since then.

we referenced things that happened literally years after 2004

Yep that was it. Like a literal mob of lvl 3's wrecking lvl 99's

Will do. I am a poor neet so I had to black mail pedos online for bit coin so I can buy Sup Forums pass and use vpn. I will buy Sup Forums pass soon. When I get around t fucking around with the girls I will make a thread and ask for suggestions

Godspeed you magnificent faggot. Get surreal in this shit. If you bore me I swear to god I will eat your fucking pets

Because its fun

Sup Forums should have never created content

BUMPERINO!

getting banned for that is a good post, you'll dont get it

molotov everything & Huff raid, brother!

...

>07ish

that's newfaggotry, prank calling people about death threats isn't funny or cool, you should list shitposting with animal gore while your at it

haha we were pedobaiting on &Totse and making bank in the day, but we stopped before PRISM luckily

you're doing this a decade past the safe point of doing it, plus the chat clients now suck, plus pedos all expect snapchat / facetime shit.

it's not like it was with MSN Messenger saving everything in the logs including all pics sent and recieved with thumbnails in the log and giving you a convenient email address to start doxing with

Nah dude, 07 is officially a decade ago and an era of Sup Forums like any other. That shit's edgy, but still.

true newfaggotry is 2014 on.

...

So, Sup Forums. What are your ideas for OC and habbenings that never came to fruition?

I had an idea for a discord server dedicated to coming up with good shit to post, making shoops, and organizing raids/IRL happenings.

Dunno about here. Was in N. Iraq it was hot as shit.
