Can't beat the chink.

most of those people are redditors from /r/thedonald who migrated to Sup Forums. he did the right thing.

No one wants to advertise here so those views don't equal dollarydoos

he was made an offer he couldnt refuse

he's got a cushy job at google where they pay him a hefty salary not to work for anyone else, i'm sure he's doing alright.

1 fucking dollar

this, i feel sick looking at OP's pic

>traffic doubles
>ads is blocked by anyone
He did everything right

Retarded for not selling user information and having cancerous ads plague the site like hiroshima does?
Retarded for cashing out before the shitstorm that was 2016 and living a comfortable life as a consultant at google?

I think you should think a while who really is retarded.

Who cares? He sold a website that is now almost worth $1 billion in terms of conventional traffic calculations.

Moot got jewed hard.

Sup Forums will die out in content with captcha v2

Sup Forums isn't worth 1B

literally who

Not even a tenth of it

>a website that is worth 1 billion

no company will buy ad spots on this site, because it would harm their reputation
afaik that was the reason moot sold Sup Forums

t. Hiroki Takanashi-Davis

moot couldnt make Sup Forums turn a profit and was losing money from it, he sold it but he got a reputation for making it and it got him easy jobs, hiro had previous experience at 2chan and and he knows how to make Sup Forums turn a profit as it is now

the traffic for Sup Forums has always looked like that, exponential growth since its inception
moot would create new boards to filter out some of the retards like /mlp/, Sup Forums and /soc/ but newmoot doesnt look like he will continue the trend so its probably going to go downhill very fast

...

he is the hiro Sup Forums needed

Adblocker usage has also gone up, so it's not clear to me that ad revenue has gone up by the same amount.

I think you people forgot who Hiroshima is

He said the legal headaches were getting to be too much.

Fappening and Sarah palin emails were a fucking nightmare.
Don't forget the child porn cases on Sup Forums for the past 14 years.

>implying this site isn't a huge money pit

He should have deleted it.

this 2b fair ladios

Translating traffic into $$$ is not easy....especially a place like Sup Forums most of these guys are edge neckbeards using adblock.

Right now the plan is to annoy me using these stinking captchas until I buy Sup Forums pass? Forget it!!!! I'll click on the stupid bikes already!

That's gamergate's fault, not moot or Hiro.

Gabergate wasn't big newfag.

It was I'd say, enough they had to ban it and totally dominated frontpage of Sup Forums even with mod removals before that

>Sup Forums will die out in content with captcha v2
I don't even think 5% of the site is using old captcha

in fact 99% of mobile browsers use new captcha and they make up like 80% of the site now

He got fed up with having to deal with gamergate

I'd take super rich celebrities with their nude photos that made headlines with big name lawyers knocking on moots door over a small group of autists complaining about some bitch who gets triggered about not enough woman in video games.

>manage to sell the literal plague for a profit and land a job at jewgle
>all while you're a literal homosexual with photos of yourself dressed like a fairy on the internet
>a literal fucking gore and cp website

Moot should have gotten stoned for creating this abomination. Instead he got a comfy desk job and retirement money.

They were complaining that she supposedly had sex with guys for good reviews. It was impossible to get away from it even showed up on Sup Forums.

people blame hirohito for adblocks but let`s be real nobody enabled ads before and those who did didn`t fuck buy from j-list

>in terms of conventional traffic calculations.

conventional traffic calculations do not apply to Sup Forums. It is almost universally blacklisted for advertisement, which is what that metric is based on. J-List =/= Google Ads

>moot
literally who???

Nah Sup Forums is still comfier than almost any other site ( dead image boards don't count)

Posters got DMCA letters for reuploaded JLaws pictures, her pictures surfaced on most major boards.It got the most news coverage from major media sites like CNN,Fox and MSNBC.

Gabergate got attention from kotaku...

>adds malicious ads
>newfag redditors too stupid to use ad blocking services
>he swims in cash
How did he get away with this?

>in terms of conventional traffic calculations.
Which means jackshit on a completely unmarketable site with a bad reputation, blacklisted with every advertiser and filled mostly with NEETs and shitposters who'd never pay a penny to use it.
If anything we should thank v2 for slowing the site down. Browse any captcha thread and you'll find out the vast majority of retards have no idea you can even use v1. Not much will change for your average user.

Can you start a thread using v1?
