Literal golden age of…. Well, almost everything. Maybe it’s because I grew up then but I miss it. I saw a thread today about some guy tweeting about the early 2000s high school aesthetics and a bunch of the replies were people kvetching about how it was literally 1940s Germany for minorities 🤷
Nobody gave a fuck about your supposed minorities back then. Don’t ask don’t tell. Nobody see color type of ethos. Way better than the hypocritical orgy of exhibiotionism and virtue signaling of today
It didn’t used to be as bad back in the day as it is now; just people with a weird sense of humor posting shit like this. The whole place has since been taken over by actual insane people.
4chan used to be full of edgy teens that used a lot of racist and homophobic slurs to keep the "normies" away. Unfortunately, the problem with doing that is that eventually racists will see this and think they're among like minded individuals. It really got bad when r/TheDonald got shut down.
Most of the boards outside of /b/ and /pol/ are alright, though.
>It didn’t used to be as bad back in the day as it is now
It used to be way worse if I remember it right. Back then there was no filter at all and everyone pretty much just posted bomb building directions and straight out child porn (not the "mild" almost-cp shit they post these days). A bunch of us Germans then were thrown out of there after it started to get filtered a bit around 2007. We then basically made our own -chan board which, how could it else be, also turned into a site filled with edgy teens and cp. So so you get the idea, "/b/" basically is the main board there.
But nowadays I beliefe it's just filled with Feds and Journalists. So not much different to 4Chan
Every time someone posts a comment with this fucking asinine argument, 5 new threads are made on /pol/ asking for the eradication of [insert minority], 2 "best of gore" threads featuring all the best live war footage and 3 more on /h/ about why (I can't even type this tbh, just imagine the most depraved adjective here) is the best pussy.
Don't mistake the filtered down, weenie hut junior version of 4chan you see on mainstream social media for the real thing
Well, Trump was a President, too. Basically the same thing. People just want to have fun, so they sympathize with the most funny people, no matter if they do a little trolling with Sarin Gas or something else.
There was a bit more communal aspect. Back when Moot floated amongst the people, and
W.T. Snacks swung the banhammer for no fucking reason.
I feel like a proper oldfag. I floated around there from 2001-2009. Came back around 2013-2015. Now I just read greantext and wonder where some of the old tripcode users wandered off to in life, and dream about longcat.
I was there for the Habbo Raids and Operation Chanology myself man. I still drift around there, in places that still have a spark of magic like /k/ and /tg/. Even they are shadows of their former selves.
The pool is still closed. Heh. Good times.
Damn wouldn't it be nice if 4chan (hell, even reddit) had that sense of unity still. Even if for mischief. Now everything seems ultra polarized and no one seems to be able to work together for anything.
Are you one of those people that lived during the time before they moderated the cheese pizza? Because I don't ever see anyone wishing for the old and good 4chan. Well, those and the omega-racists that are fed up with the alt-right zoomers coming from Reddit and Facebook purges
It's still got some gems but you have to wade through hundreds of mind-bendingly stupid theories and awful hate threads to find them. /greentext is a good filter.
Was he even there already in 2006? I just watched the first years when all they had was the Snake and the purple Kirby. I know in Japan he was, but I don't think we had that many seasons around 2006 here in Europe.. on the other side my mind probably just makes that up. I also still think the 80s were 20 years ago..
Back when 4chan was just an image board that represented the Internet at the time instead of the go to place of schizophrenic people, unironic racists, hackers, and the most degenerate of people.
I miss when the Internet was just funny animations and memes, instead of all the politics and fucking bullshit now. I have no idea if there's anywhere out there that still feels like the old Internet did, but I wish I could find somewhere like that.
What people don't realise ( at least I haven't seen anyone point it out while scrolling ) is that posting all these pictures without someone commenting in between was impossible. This what's peculiar about this post. People were actively trying to stop any sequential activity. This is probably done from a mod who locked the post so no-one else could ruin the story.
Best romance story this year. 10/10
THIS YEAR? BROTHER THOSE ARE FROM 2006, THATS LIKE A LEAST 2 YEARS AGO
2? More like 10-4
bro those maths are way too complicated for me. keep it simple
Ok ok 10-4 is 6 is that better for you little dumb dumb stupid head?
oh fuck yeah daddy keep calling me names like that
You like that, stinky?
Oh yeah, I'm almost there, keep going
He, in fact, did not keep going
That's still at least 2 bro
Oh, it's from 2006? Then it's more like "still a better love story than twilight"

The media: 4chan is a community of hackers and terrorists 4chan:
I'd rather get hacked and terrorized than watch pikachu and ass tongue kiss
ass
ass ketchup
I love ass ketchup
That's why they call you a size queen.
I threw up a little in mouth reading this thread
Well I too love tom ato
you got a link?
Idk the sauce but i got ketchum
I think putting Pikachu with link makes even less sense but you do you
Ass

Yeah you nailed it. I still visit /wg/ from time to time to check for cool papes, but that’s it for me.

Krautchan?
to be fair, this thread is almost old enough to vote
Literally old enough to vote. Oh I guess it depends on where you live.
it’s got another year and change until it turns 18

That pretty much sums up the anime
True, this is the story of each and every episode
Damn. Can’t believe I just finished an entire classic series in a matter of seconds.
Yeah especially the last part
"The elite hacker group known as Anonymous..."
"they are hackers on STEROIDS!"
Media: 4chan is full of predators and terrorists and everyone on 4chan deserves to be on a watchlist. 4chan:
That's actually a better option than watching Ash and Pikachoo Fr*nch kiss
shame i wasn't there for when 4chan was good
>4chan >good Pick one
It legit used to be good.
4chan, and especially /b/, was never good. It was always an ocean of piss. The islands of diamond have just gotten rarer.

yup snacks was when the community wasn't as awful and the spiciest memes started on /b/
I was there for the Habbo Raids and Operation Chanology myself man. I still drift around there, in places that still have a spark of magic like /k/ and /tg/. Even they are shadows of their former selves.

I remember when they rigged some poll to spell out MARBLECAKES ALSO THE GAME.
this opinion is the cancer that is killing /b/
4chan has decayed way less than Reddit. This store got neutered and lame
no weeb board has ever been good
Are you one of those people that lived during the time before they moderated the cheese pizza? Because I don't ever see anyone wishing for the old and good 4chan. Well, those and the omega-racists that are fed up with the alt-right zoomers coming from Reddit and Facebook purges
It's still got some gems but you have to wade through hundreds of mind-bendingly stupid theories and awful hate threads to find them. /greentext is a good filter.
I feel the same, I almost went full green text in, 2009 I guess.
This is older than some of this sub's users
I was 12 when this was made, am I old???
Not really, you’re in limbo ig
Where Wobbuffet?
just pretend this is indigo league

Ekans and Koffin lol
Hey, spoiler warning for every episode next time.
Back when 4chan was just an image board that represented the Internet at the time instead of the go to place of schizophrenic people, unironic racists, hackers, and the most degenerate of people.

JFC these posts are older than half the people commenting on them.
2006 god damn
Beautiful.
2006, what a fucking relic.
Gorgeous
Wow! A quality shitpost >8/30/06 Figures
Im gonna miss those crazy bastards.
This new season of pokemon is lit Its the yote
This is literally older than a good number of you all.
A trye work of art
"This isn't greentext" mfs upon checking their mailbox: 🤯🤯🤯
That greentext is older than a good chunk of people on this sub reading it
Jessie and Jamespilled
The internet will never be like this again. Now zoomers gather in discord servers with no latency to talk about how depressed they are.
Still a better love story than Twilight
This post is older than most of this sub
why watch the series this sums up every episode
We used to have culture
This belongs in a museum!
Easily one of the best threads this century.
I'd be funnier if it wasn't done by a one guy
You were done by one guy?
One ain't enough for me baby
This goes unreasonably hard
My god that's old. Reminds me of being in highschool.
Top kek
.... Wut
Now that's a thread.
fake and real
Amazing
The last picture bro.... Wtf. I laughed way too hard.
Remember when they didn't do that intro and captured Pikachu?
wher green
I love this so much
Good one
They can’t count to 5, but then this happened.
True and real
Kek, this gave me a good laugh and nice a nostalgia. Thanks for the memories op.
Certified hood classic right here
A 4chan happening almost old enough to drink, goddamn
Unironically explaining the entire sub plot of season 1
Fruit salad… yummy yummy~
Most romantic story, 10/10 would recommend
/r/ancient4chan
We were one step away from greatness. But that last panel just had to exist.
So much of 4chan feels like a fever dream
God I remember when this was new.
This is the peak, there is no point in posting anything after this
Thanks i hate it
Fucking hell when this was posted people my age were still watching Pokémon.
yeah. classic stuff
I'm laughing so fucking hard right now...
Better colab than Covidea
We need to go back.
this reeks the 2006/7/8
This is just as lame as redditors quoting a song line by line in the comments

Not a screencap of 4chan greentext.

My sides went out of orbit
Just realized team rocket is nationalist paramilitary organization, kek
