4Chan.. whats the deal with that site?
 

Just saw that Verizon blocked access to that site and its apparently a big deal?!

anyone go to this site.. whats the appeal?

It is unique.

repost....wish I had one of them clever thingies to make fun of you with handy...

Thanks for starting a thread about it. I needed to see a second thread for me to believe it.

There was already a thread on this, I went there last night to check it out and it's the strangest place on the internet.

Seems as though the OP is asking more about 4chan rather than talking about the Verizon thing as news.

Relax.

Bullshit...it says something about Verizon in his first sentence....let's all just fight over it...

Yup they are strange....but I would never **** with them.

I just tried to go to that 4chan site (from behind an at-work DoD firewall) and got this screen text...


The Site You Are Trying To Access Is Prohibited

Category of Blocked URL: "Violence/Hate/Racism"

ROFL

Check out encyclopedia dramatica for a wiki on the subject. Like it was said in the other thread, the website is a buglight for weirdos posting bad content.

dude comeon there is another long thread on this.

Bottom line.....if you don't know about it you don't need to know about it. It's only going to bring you trouble if you are not a techie.

There is a thread asking about what 4chan is?

Oh yeah, if you're at work I don't think you want to go there, apparently you can post pr0n in any category over there. And yes, lots of racist stuff there as well.

It is fast moving and based on anonymity.

Imagine a constant stream of threads with no rules and complete anonymous posting. Anything id fair game. It breeds the lowest common denominator of poster but also is the source of a lot of creativity.

yes

Porn is about the best case scenario of something a boss could see you looking at on 4chan.

It really is the complete pit of the internet where there is stuff floating around that you can't unsee.

Nope, I do see a thread about Verizon's action.

C'mon man...seems of these guys need to go over there and run their mouth....It's all in fun man....

What does being a techie have to do with it.

sounds a lot like this place.
sec

Absolutely not. There is no shred of moral compass on 4chan.

Example... /b/ users consistently post Facebook groups made for people sharing memories of a loved one after a recent death. People swarm it and mock the person and their grieving friends and family the way they died or generally just shitting all over the whole thing. It is usually a teenager.

Yep.

Gore threads, racist material, illegal porn, etc.

It's a bunch of outcasts trying to top each other in the quest for "epic." That includes attention cam whores to the guy who stole a human skull from some European castle, took it back to his hotel, and literally skull ****ed it (pics and it happened).

no way jose. It's the wild wild west there. Nothing is off limits. Racism, putting spam and virus's in files or pictures you view etc.

Guys, I warned people about this site in another thread. I'll do it again. Don't say you wern't warned. Plus the site's visitors are being tracked.

The good: It is occasionally hilarious and the birthplace of many funny internet terms and memes (such as Rick Rolling)

The bad: Completely unmoderated (with the exception of kiddie porn), with an endless supply of racism, sexism anything-else-ism and sadly, pedophilia in some boards (/b/ in particular).

There is some humor to be had, but it is only for those who are impossible to offend.

I don't see why people put anything up on Facebook anyway, but that is just me. You are just asking for misuse and not just on 4chan. Not saying it's right, but you take your chances, and sometimes I feel like fishing for sympathy gets out of hand. Therefore, I can see the logic of hateful teenage kids making fun of it.

Wow. So someone could get a visit for following a link to the site?

I see what you are saying but...

I think connecting with others in that time is a natural reaction...and a lot of people connect with with extended friends and family on facebook.

I don't see how they could possibly be tracking everyone as it is such a huge site, but yes it is generally believed that the government keeps a pretty close watch on the site and it's visitors. There have been terrorist threats that originated there and child porn is frequently posted.

By who?

"The Man"

That's just asking for a haunting.

I think it's worth pointing out you guys are talking mainly about /b/. There are actually other boards with legitimate discussion. The ones with a blue background are actually supposed to be work safe.

It's like CP tags, but much worse.

ROFL

yeah, for example, http://boards.4chan.org/sp/ -- the 4chan sports board -- has a lot of safe, hilarious pics.

I haven't been there in a long time but I need to check it out more often they have some hilarious shit

Then again I saw one of the most disturbing pics I have ever seen. wow

Right - and then /b/ will get shut down or something and the tards will spam their shit on other boards.

A few visits was enough for me. Ill never visit the site again.

If /b/ could be shutdown it probably would have by now.

Denial of service attacks is what I meant.

Thanks for the info.. I checked it out once and it just looked like random unorganized crap and I really couldn't understand the point or the organization of it

Wow I usually don't get grossed out but even that website is a bit much for me.

i been to 4chan once a few years ago. ITs a place that isnt for me. Its basically for a bunch of kids to do whatever the hell they want. A place of outcasts really. Ya iknow the type of kids that didnt have a group to hang around in highschool. Well 4 chan accepts you.

Biggest cesspool on the internet, but i wouldnt **** with them, they will find out all of your information and post it on the internet. They are known for harassing people just for the hell of it. They will get all your phone numbers, home address, call your boss and just wreck havoc. WHy? because they can.

Thats why I was warning people.

yep, and you wont ever know who they are, because 90 percent of them hide behind proxies and alot of them know how to hide their isp's.

I'll assume by the government.

Not actually...

Yup, I would never **** with them. They make skip towns threats look like childs play.

4chan is anonymous.

their creedo is "none of us are as cruel as all of us", yet they carry out their vigilantism with a sense of justice, eg their attacks on scientology.

Also, they largely have an eastern/asian demographic, so the focus on the individual is, again, secondary. Unless of course you act reeruned, especially if it represents a cultural norm ( like the webcam stripper with her toddler on cam behind her that was harassed) then they will destroy you.

This fore-chan got pictures of high school girls there?

Most have covered it pretty much entirely but here's the short:

1) No moral compass
2) Scientology attacks
3) Rickrolling

Hell, that site is hawt on the slut factor. I bet some of the pu55ies here like BigRedQueef cruise the origami board at 4chan to get cute ideas for projects. I like the ass and kinship.

:spock:

Smells like Marlboro Chief to me. :shrug:

Verizon blocked access? Is it only for cellphones? It still works on my FIOS connection.

Yep. Has to be.

Man, I still can't believe this repost game.....No love for the original OP....

bugeater repped messaged me that I am creepy....thank you my friend...thank you very much.....

Maybe this thread is what is corrupting the Planet today...

Like chum in the water..........................

Nice new name, RoR

No way thats ROR. He was atleast funny.

This is exactly the same way RoR started out.

It's a MC account. That somehow lost 20 posts.

He deleted a bunch of them, I skimmed through them earlier, he was claiming to be a Houston Texans fan in most of them. I'm guessing he did it because now he's trying to pass himself off as someone from that internet cesspool we were talking about earlier.

Wait what site? I'm lost.

I cant find it, the links dont work and I cant even google it?

pretty sure it's 4 chan dot org

OH **** RUN FOR YOUR LIVES EVERYONE! TEH INTRANET MAFEEYA IS COMING!

Just google 12chan, newbundle of stickss.

LMAO

ROFL Okay, don't. Seriously. Don't.

It's probably yakuza, man. Did you not see 'Kill Bill"? Body parts all over the place. :shake:
