So, is it true? Is Cred Forums really getting shut down?

So, is it true? Is Cred Forums really getting shut down?

There are a few theories going around at the moment, one involving a warrant canary going off, one stating hiroshimoot is handing shit over to a mod, one saying we are getting shut down, who knows at this point. Just sit back and watch the boards burn.

they're finally getting us back for hiroshima

took them a while but I have to admire them playing the long game

No

It was supposed to happen about 2 hours ago. According to the ""announcement"

FREEDOM

As you know most announcements of this nature are full of partial truths, a little speculation and a touch of bullshit.

I have information that indicates Cred Forums will shut down by the end of September. It has largely to do with monetization and the justification for that is vulgar/explicit content being too prevalent in the current uncontrolled state. Message boards will be heavily moderated at the very least in the next incantation.

Bullshit, where's the proof faggot?

show us the evidence you have that Cred Forums will be shut down by the end of September, or you'll go down road as so many faggots before you.

Proof will come in October when you see the new site.

D.A.K

>heavily moderated
If we start getting banned for posting the word faggot we're all moving to 6+2 chan

Is a massive faggot
They ain't taking our Cred Forums.

I hope they bring IDs back

>It has largely to do with monetization
Except that this site is literally an economic hell hole, the only reason one should mantain Cred Forums would be as an act of love because you should NEVER expect rolling in dosh just because you're mr. Cred Forums.
> and the justification for that is vulgar/explicit content being too prevalent in the current uncontrolled state.
kek, meanwhile we have other imageboards that have horrid shit and there's stormfont which is racism circlejerk imageboard that would make a feminist's fat face be like a tomato, boy if you're that much of a paranoic faggot that things the world will become cyberpunk or some dumb shit where the government controls you (tip, it already does), you might as well eat the bullet right now.

Also, the announcement of Cred Forums getting shut down was an entire hoax, the post where hiroyuki said he's handling the site to a moderator or some dumb shit from the /j/ board was fake (rofl 6000+ post when the board has 3 more digits on the post numbers).

Prove me wrong, you bunch of faggots

It's not language so much as the content that is posted. Rather the rekt threads, the kik threads, creepshots, etc. It's all going to go away, and you should expect to see random go bye bye. Porn will still be there, you're just going to have to go somewhere else for pictures of nude, mutilated corpses.

U meen 8chDOTnet?

Remember when Moot sold the site to Gawker?
People were swearing up and down that this was true.

Fuck I see this turning full blown redit where rape porn and anything slightly misogynistic will bee shunned

On a related note has anyone tried to search rape/forced on xvideos and pornhub recently?

Yip

I just looked and jesus christ, nothing's been posted on the news page in 11 months. Jackie Cred Forums has forgotten us.

>I have information

yeah yeah, my uncle also works at nintendo, faggot.

Already been, too many fucking boards with the same old shit from months prior

did you know he gets on news/panel shows in japan based on the fact he runs Cred Forums?

Was over there a few months ago and saw the fish-eyed autist going head to head with the main anchor, shit was crazy.

Pretty sure he just bought 4chin to keep his profile high and create a notorious persona, he has nothing else going on otherwise.

Part of the whole plan with selling was to let the site remain the same over the next year, allow traffic to continue it's upward trend and then monetize the shit out of it. I'm talking ads before your webms and gifs, side banners on every page, pop-ups, paid subscription for bonus features. Etc.

I also know they have actively recruited certain posters to maintain a level of continuity until the site goes full retard. They will post all the same shit, but will also be responsible partly for maintaining and moderating the threads they create. Ask me how I know.

>I'm talking ads before your webms and gifs, side banners on every page, pop-ups, paid subscription for bonus features. Etc
Watch as everyone starts using adblock like everyone avoided the black plague centuries ago

Man, just chill, if the site is going down, its going down and that's all folks!

>I also know

suuuure you do, hot insider info at the 4chins

how do you know?

How do you know this user?

Checked

I've been here since 2006.
We've lived through warrants, scandal, blatant media coverage, storm front and even some straight up crimes.
>Too soon

Way more has happened in the past that would have constituted shutting us down.
>Sarah Palin emails

Cut your shit it's not getting shutdown.

what kept 4chins alive was mootles. mootles kept 4chins alive because he believes in the principles of (mostly) free speech and online anonymity.

hiroshimoot is an unknown quantity. mootles was laid back but he also took shit seriously and he took the site seriously, including posting shit on the news page. hiroshimoot is acting like a slumlord. never around unless the bylaw fags are knocking.

mootles even had to testify in front of a jury in a federal courtroom and explain to everybody what crap like newfag meant. that's fucking amazing. would jackie Cred Forums do that and leave the site alone afterwards? i have no idea.

Cred Forums ISNT BEING SHUTDOWN HIROSHIMI IS TROLLING US STOP THIS MADNESS

Is this just going to end up as some short lived meme?

>i have no idea
Exactly none of us do.
Only newfags freak out about the site being shut down because they don't know the alternatives and haven't been here through true turmoil.
>Cred Forumsharbour was the biggest troll ever
>8 STAGES OF CUCKHOLDING

Remember a couple years ago when GG was going on and we raided the shit out of Tumblr making the news and keeping score boards of people who killed themselves?
I do.

We've been way worse in the past and gotten away with so damn much.
Our owner is just a figure head nothing more.

Fuck m00t he was a cock wrangling faggot queen.

'christopher poole' isn't even his real name, it's an anagram of 'i am lord voldemort'
