So not everything on 4chan is bad... If you're a /b/tard, it will still be a bit surprising though. Haven't seen much from /b/ that isn't messed up. Buta 13:43, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

'Course not everything on 4chan is bad! They gave the world Caturday! I don't go on there, but I owe them bigtime for creating Caturday and Creepypasta. ~Laburnum

Well, there is that. An entire day of staring at Cute Overload with some ICHC sprinkled in reminded me of their best contribution to the internet - LOLcats and Caturday in general. Besides that, and some decent memes, I think most of /b/ can safely be grouped under 'extremely messed up'. Buta 15:55, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, and they did some fairly rotten things - like hacking an epilepsy site and putting flashing graphics on the front page - and it was an @$$ from /b/ that repeatedly spammed the Pit. (Dealt with him eventually, though :)) But on the other hand, Anonymous did apparently once track down a genuine sex offender via the internet and sent his address to the police, so they have done some pretty cool stuff too. Trouble is, the nature of Anon means that if only a few people on there do something, everyone assumes the entirety of 4chan is in on it, which isn't true for either the good or the bad. ~Laburnum


 * Well, to all potentially worried parties: I am not Anonymous. Not this New Anonymous, at least. Haven't actually touched /b/ roughly since the Scientology thing began winding down there. I have no intent to track mud in from the cesspit; my haunts are the Trio of Geekdom; /v/, /tg/, /co/. And though I may make references related to those boards now and again (can't help it, it's been ingrained into me), I am here for the sake of having a good time here. Not for making things hell so I can laugh about it to a bunch of teenagers back there. That's not my style, and not the style of most people from /co/ or /tg/ either (/v/, I'm less sure about nowadays, but eh). --DirtyCommie 16:10, 13 March 2009 (UTC)


 * It's okay, we assume you're one of the smart ones until you prove otherwise :) Welcome aboard. And I steal jokes from there sometimes even though I've never been on the imageboard, so that's no problem. ~Laburnum
