Venneh Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 To quote UrbanDictionary: you have just entered the very heart, soul, and life force of the internet. this is a place beyond sanity, wild and untamed. there is nothing new here. "new" content on 4chan is not found; it is created from old material. every interesting, offensive, shocking, or debate inspiring topic youve seen elsewhere has been posted here ad infinitum. we are the reason for "not safe for work". we are the anonymous army. cross us and you will fail. anonymous is everywhere. you depend on us every day. we bag your groceries, we fix your computers. anonymous sees you before you see him. sitting at desks around the world right now is a nameless, faceless, unforgiving mafia composed of the best of the best. we are 4channers. the people devoid of any type of soul or conscience. products of cynicism and apathy, spreading those very sentiments daily. anonymous is the hardened war veteran of the internet. he does not forgive or forget. we have seen things that defy explantions. heard stories that would make any god-fearing, law abiding citzen empty their stomach where they stand. we have experienced them multiple times and eagerly await their return. 4chan is a place of sheer genius and utter stupidity, and there is often a thin line dividing the two. here you will see a state of mind that exists in most human beings, but is rarely if ever shown. this is a place where taboos do not exist. 4chan cannot simply be regarded as a simple website or imageboard. it is so much more than code. 4chan is alive and constantly changing. this is a subculture, a self-governing sect of the world. rich in history and foundation. to become a 4chan user is to speak a different language. to leave behind any methods of conventional thinking you once knew. there are things here that you will not understand and things you never will understand. if you cannot accept this then GTFO now. because there is no turning back. this is 4chan this is /b/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 WTF is 4Chan anyway? It's where about 70% of internet memes are created. Basically a place where a bunch of self-important people anonymously share porn of nebulous legality and talk about how much they hate Scientology. It's also the single most annoying place on the internet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackFetch Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 If the internet was a person, then 4Chan would be their crotch. There is some fun to be had there, but it's not something you share with the public at large. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the entire site is random stupid pictures followed by what could be described as Youtube-comment level banter, I think there's a case to be made.

dc20willsave Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 This is why I love Earth-2. There are people here that didn't know that 4Chan existed until today and the site is not sullied by it's influence with the exception of the occasional lulzcat.

KnightWing Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 Yes, he deserved everything he got, but for God's sake news companies learn what is and what isn't hacking. Guessing someone's security questions using public information isn't hacking. It's social engineering. There is another story going around about those big highway signs getting "hacked" and the messages changed because they never changed the default password. See now, I'm not entirely sure there's a difference. If someone finds the key hidden inside the fake rock in my front yard, then uses it to go inside my house, that's not "okay;" that's still breaking and entering.
