Was Cred Forums cooler back then or now?

Get your facts straight

Cred Forums was activated 2001 after 9/11 by m00t who was then the leader and founder of Anynomonous group

There weren't as many redditors back then. Then again, I think the current Cred Forums is a spiritual successor of old Cred Forums in many ways.

Cred Forums was never good.

Cred Forums were never hacktavists.

Cred Forums was only ever people with too much free time on their hands having fun calling bullshit on others. No one here was ever interested in actual social change. It was literally for the lulz.

There are idiots out there that seized on that shit and thought we were serious. People who think there is some kind of serious cause out there that needs to be fought for. We're a collective of people just looking for a good time in our preferred interests. If you start fucking with those interests is when you actually draw our ire. Even then we're just going to order you 20 pizzas and laugh at your shitty cloud stored pictures of you looking at your own anus.

We just want to be left alone.

old Cred Forums = reddit circa 2012

it was just a bunch of stupid memes, epic gets xD, raids and weird pornography

>back then
>Cred Forums
Lel. Newfag confirmed.

The difference being that memes were not even a thing outside of Cred Forums at that point.
The reddit and 9gag came and decided to profit and steal in good old american fashion and everyone started to despise memes.
Then a culture formed and the cancer metastasized beyond control, spreading even back here and now everything is literal shit.

Back then

>everything eventually goes to shit on the Internet as more people get on it

Shocker.

>stormniggers and alt-right ugly shut ins
>somehow a manifestation of old Cred Forums

Kys

But then memes and raids were pretty gud because no one else did them except SA which was full of retards.

Back then,

Nowadays you're like reverse tumblr. Cred Forums is literally Cred Forums except you're serious.

lmao

cry more cucc

Like all societies, Cred Forums goes through secular integrative and disintegrative cycles. The speed of an anonymous message board's the cycle is very fast due to the instantaneous nature of the communication and lack physical and temporal co-location. We are currently riding a high wave of emotional energy and expansion of ideas, probably the highest since the original explosion of culture in 2004 and 2005. If I had to the rank the eras they would be the following

The Golden Age (2003-2005) > Meme Magic (2015-present) > Hackers on Steroids (2006-2008) > That Feel When (2012-2014)> We R leejun (2008-2011)

>ugly shut ins
Sounds 100% correct

The 2006-2008 was all about raids and the amount of butthurt was too funny not to be rated higher

Cred Forums was nice before the scientology nonsense.

can't ignore CWC sagas

>I think the current Cred Forums is a spiritual successor of old Cred Forums in many ways.
Top kek, old Cred Forums never took itself seriously. Kill yourself.

comfy post is comfy

>rating meme shit that high
Kill yourself. It's an endless tirade of unfunny repetition. Literally autism.

You should ask a board that isn't full of people that came to the site in the 2010s

> Cred Forums is literally Cred Forums except you're serious.
>Cred Forums - serious
>Cred Forums - Cred Forums
You know nothing, Jon Snow.

>i disagree therefore everyone else is a newfag

It had its moments even then but that is when it became mainstream and shit went downhill real fast

Gask Mask Chan?

You came to Cred Forums after 2014

>implying I'm going to waste time trying to prove myself to a troll from the class of '16

I remember the raids. It was just hilarious how methodical they were. Someone would post a random naruto forum on Cred Forums and within minutes the whole forum was covered from head to toe in tubgirl/gore/guro.

>backing out after his true nature has been found out
No surprise at all.

been floating around since ~2004, seen a lot come and go

Cred Forums was just a group of people who spent too much time on the computer, where people came to said things that weren't true/false but maybe just unacceptable to say anywhere else. At one point the blatant racism was ironic, and the "Anonymous" was just a meme people ran with, now the actual spergs have settled in and it's... I don't go to Cred Forums anymore.

Cool story, bro.

This era is one of the best, aside from general cancer.

Been here since the .net days and I think "cooler" is kind of meaningless. It was just different. Less posters, slower boards, different signal:noise ratio when it came to thought-out posts.

I personally liked smaller Cred Forums, and I miss a lot of the old boards like /loli/ and old Cred Forums. Cred Forums was originally the deformed child of SomethingAwful and 2chan, and it had a completely different vibe as a result.

Cred Forums is still as cool as it's always been, just in a different way.

Present day Cred Forums has way more discussion than it did back then. Usually threads would get derailed faster and it wasn't fun

why does Cred Forums think they are the only onine activists in the world?

there's probably only 40 neckbeards here at a time

Because anonymous was the online time hacktivism actually did anything, before it became slacktivism.

90's Cred Forums was best Cred Forums

It was cooler then because it was a smaller userbase posting much more controversial shit.

Cred Forums itself is at it's best now. All the new boards like /his/ especially for me are great but the userbase is soft as all fuck now.

It was predominantly an American forum but has since been overrun with euros and whatnot.

Cred Forums is mostly just porn now, and isn't worth going there unless you like porn. The last really good thread on Cred Forums was like one or two years ago when they found out some executive was cheating on her husband with a sandnigger

This and only this.

Yes know your place sperglords and so what.

Yes because everyone in Europe walks around spouting memes and general retardation, right?
>meanwhile in the US it is a legitimate marketing strategy.

Gay porn Cred Forums is faggot town.

Been here since 2015, it was a lot better then

Cred Forums was never 'cool'

Pretty sure anyone's here from before 2010 they're sad cunts

I'm here from 2010 or 2011 and I'm a sad cunt

underrated post

Yes. No. Sort of. It had slightly less jr high kids on it and every single post wasn't some 14 year old with no friends trying to prove how Cred Forums he is by spouting chanspeak and mindlessly repeating whatever forced meme the 16 year old is spamming because he thinks it will make him fit in. It had no overwhelming jr high kid mind clique rivalry where he thinks if he memes hard enough and accuses everyone else of being from reddit he'll "belong". In short, it was better because the generation of young kids at the time were less annoying compared to today's kids and were making it slightly less annoying.

It's never been cool. Always been shit.

4chin was just a place that we could post about weebshit without having to deal with the faggot mods at somethingawful

fucking retards

...

>he has a problem with racism.

Go back to rebbit old man

I miss the old days

>uses autism meme

Really makes you think

those were the days

No, i'm not using "le autism" meme. I mean actual autism. Obsessively repetitive behavior is one of the symptoms.

haha autism meme lmao. go away fag

This, Cred Forums is just another place I come for entertainment. The difference here is the price sometimes comes with seeing some "bad" stuff with it. That's usually enough to keep the normies out.

Guess I struck a nerve.
Here's another meme for you
>TRIGGERED lmao

I liked the shitposting culture of old Cred Forums when it had more relaxed moderation. That 'wild west' feeling was incomparable to anything else. There are more serious threads now, yes but there's also an increased feeling of control.

Anyone saying "back then" was clearly not around for Chanology, a """movement""" that was even more unnecessary and embarrassing than Gamergate.

more moderation and captchas became necessary primarily because of the ridiculous amount of spam, at one point basically every single post of the front page of the most popular boards was porn or affiliate scam links

Captcha was almost solely down to faggots like Kimmo Alm.

it wasn't really because of the porn or scam links, it was mainly due to the monthly raids that was going on back then, they didn't really spam anything meaningful or erotic it was just an image of the color red which took up like 5-6 pages even on the Cred Forums board

Wow some one who was there and actually got the jiff of it. Why didn't you come out of the shadows and said anything when and even know that people are taking anonymous so seriously?

omg i totally forgot about that guy. the most butthurt person in Cred Forums history, an actual literal pedophile who thought moot stole the idea of Cred Forums from him or something. really just trying to leech off Cred Forums and get traffic to his pedo site with spam and constantly butthurt his spam would get deleted.

What was the Cred Forums's worst year and its best year after 2006?

...

r u trying to have a nostalgia thread without the goddess?

Lol who the fuck is that ugly chick?

Are you kidding? This site is so much targeted by marketers (especially here) that it's much more popular than you think

what are you 12 or something

boxxy

Wow. Both a newfag and a heretic. Impressive.

Cred Forums was never "cool" or "good".

>literally le autism rite xDDD

>using newfag

Found the summerfag.

>literally le reddit rite xDDD

it was visited by mostly moralfags so it was good untill people ruined other peoples lives just for the "lulz"

>it was visited by mostly moralfags so it was good untill people ruined other peoples lives just for the "lulz"

what le fuck am I le reading

Trolled XD

are you below 26 years old?

No. Are you?

Well, that depends on what you mean by "good". Cred Forums has always been kind of like the sewers of the web. Only social outcasts. I did not visit Cred Forums until maybe 2008, but I don't see much difference from there to now, only more normies and reddit/facebook fags are here. Also the younger generation sucks but what else is new.

why, my peenus weanus of course :)

hahah! :D

it's my weeeeeenus peanus :) haha

are you below 26 years old - my answer is, of course, my peanus weenus :D

hahaha!

I thought you died a long, long time ago.

I saved this image in 2006, and it's as true today as it was then.

...

>Cred Forums

Only difference between now and then is now the trolls want credit. It would be so easy to blame everything on redddit instead of wanting recognition.

Edgy Hitler jokes have always been part of the Cred Forums DNA. Hitler memes 2003-2005 were much cuter and less serious. It wasn't until 2008 and Obama was elected that the Hitler worship became less and less ironic. Anyone who argues otherwise is a newfag. Hitler was always here.

Cred Forums was ruined the moment a bunch of banned 13 year olds migrated from SA.

Yes, nigger. The point is Cred Forums didn't even exist 'back then'

>mfw Trump wins and Cred Forums swings back to being left wing solely because everyone posting here is contrarian as fuck

Ebaumsworld would like a word

The Runescape and Habbo raids generated immense butthurt throughout the internet. It was glorious

>using summerfag
Found the newfriendo

>Cred Forums
>pic most likely made by a newfag who couldn't fit in at the time
>implying people didn't want to fit in

>newfriends don't understand Cred Forums.

almost same with niggers and faggots

>Cred Forums
>serious

They're literally summoning the god of chaos through meme magic.
Come on.

I hope that happens, I miss 2006-2008 when Bush hatred was at an all time high.

The "hacktivist" project chanology shit was cancer, fucking moralfags. The old raids were the funniest thing ever though, I miss it, but things like that would never be allowed to happen in today's atmosphere, the internet is much more closely watched and regulated, anyone organizing boxing someone's house or prank calling them would be labeled as evil harassers and shut down.

psst newfag
you replied to ancient copypasta minus the rebbit part ofc

pro tip: Nobody ever liked the we're leshun fags; but some boards were better then

>At one point the blatant racism was ironic

This is the perfect description of Cred Forums in the past 10 years or so.

Meme magic is a horrible term for todays Cred Forums. "I both adhere to and despise identity politics, and I get to be a victim too" is much more accurate

I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT anything, including YOOOU

Just saying. Only newfags like boxxy. That was some forced shit from a newfaq flooded Cred Forums

Yeah, edgy has always a part of Cred Forums, but it wasn't as serious and obsessive as it is now. It was mostly meant for trolling. Now it's edgy autismos from stormnigger shitting up every thread with their same copy/paste stories from the 1800th century on how the Negroid IQ is lower than a Gorillas. And you never get away from it. It's more of an echo chamber now than it was before.

At the same time, nostalgia is only the reflection of what good you remember. I for one thought sniper threads were hilarious 8 years ago. So, Cred Forums was never good. But I believe it was better before /new/ became a lolbertarian and le alt right meme echo chamber

I hate how much politics became intertwined with Cred Forums recently, previously it was just never spoken about, now this place has become a safe space for alt right people.

2004-2006 Cred Forums was great

then the scientology shit started and it went down quickly.

i heavily cut back my browsing at the end of 07 because i was going to college, plus the site was dealing with an influx of newfags and raiding was banned.

raiding habbo and stickam and that other red cam site for whores was amazing.

spent some time on Cred Forums around 2011, but that board went to shit as well.

Cred Forums used to be amazing as well, with rapidshare threads for every album that wouldn't get you banned.

Cred Forums is the only good board left but even that's been completely destroyed by actual shilling (both pro and anti-trump)

Cred Forums was ok when it was mainly LOST posting. this board has been shit for years though. old tv would hate GOT. literally cancer.

the concept of "generals" killed a lot of boards too, this one included.

phone posting killed the site too.

sad reading this thread because there's so many newfags.

LURK MOAR FAGGOTS

The problem with Cred Forums nowadays is every post is dripping with 8 layers of irony

...

>LURK MOAR

A million times this.

All of this is correct. I would also say reddit.com tourism ruined a lot of this site too. Phone posting and generals ruined a lot aswell

...

Cred Forums was never cool, it just enjoyed moments of infamy like exploding vans on FoxNews, or being a pedophile forum on SVU

Cred Forums was lefty fedora faggotry back then. It's pretty based now. Remember the Guy Fawkes masks? How cringe was that shit?

Haha I do it for the lulz and lel so randum irony therefore every one in the history of a website is just like me phammy.

Yeah except you forgot the part where all of this led to real world consequences.

...

so the current Cred Forumstard generation are newfags?
sounds about right

You forgot namefags everywhere on every board making life absolute hell for anyone who wanted to discuss anything other than their drama.

...

...

>we'll seaing ass your hear

Jesus fucking Christ user, second language much?

...

...

Cred Forums embraced the right-wing because these days it's leftists who are thought policing instead of the biblethumpers in the early 2000's.

As long as progressives keep shoving muh racism/misogyny/transphobia/fucking WHITE MALES down everyone's throats, I don't see anyone's attitude changing just because a republican is in office.

Raiding was fun but I think it's the main culprit behind current Cred Forums. Brought in too many people.
The election has basically killed Cred Forums, shit sucks.

>the concept of "generals" killed a lot of boards too, this one included.

Couldn't agree more.

Cred Forums was never cool

>Faggots who project their own views onto some mysterious Cred Forums than is a single minded entity curiously always a reflection of themselves

>Cred Forums
>right wing
kek

>real world consequences

*van explodes*

Cred Forums is still good, because they actually still raid.

You're not an oldfag unless you remember this

lmao le internet le hate le machine :^)

>The election has basically killed Cred Forums, shit sucks.
You let it happen by embracing "praise kekxDD" much like this board and bane shit because it got you a few thread caps

...

...

...

I've yet to see those "consequences."

whos the semen demon

FUUUUUUUUUUUUU

yeah reddit is the antithesis of this site and absolute cancer. if you're reading this and you're a cross-posting faggot, reconsider your life decisions. in b4 MUHH SUBREDDITS

while raiding increased popularity i doubt it brought in "normies" like other things have done. (like the term meme becoming mainstream)

you have to be a 'sick individual' to enjoy raiding

when the fbi really started monitoring this site and they didn't understand the concept of lulz

...

chock full of sjw millennial cancer this place is

>oldfags will defend this

its quality artwork, stfu

the beginning

of the end

Not Descartes, it's some forum post

It's literally a bunch of edgy newfag Cred Forums retards, what site are you on

That's le

>
man not Descartes

...

>about to elect a meme president

Cred Forums transcended mere raiding a while ago

They also think pornography is a Jewish plot

...

is there even anything on Cred Forums to go to for?
Everytime I decide to check by, it's basically tumblr, there's some porn and rate my cock.

I joined around summer 2006, and back then there was crazy guro porn, habbo raids, raiding financial dominatrices, there was CRAZY Hentai and even some new memes ( I remember all the final "get in here" and "report in" threads... ),

Nowadays it really does seem mainstream.
Cred Forums is more fun.

>spending so much time on Cred Forums you think you had an effect on the real world

>all of that clipping

buddy...

>Cred Forums
>going outside to vote

>not coming to Cred Forums because you hated upvotes and namefags

If only there was decent moderation.

>Cred Forums
>mainstream
it's just cancer. it was THE board for a while back when now it's absolute shit.

this.
Also, too many boards have dispersed the crowd imho. I often feel that Cred Forums circa 2006 had all the best shit from everywhere. You would find Cred Forums and Cred Forums threads and so on, all on Cred Forums, all gone so fast you couldn't even press f5 most of the time.

there was a huge deal of cross-insemniation and cross-pollination of Ideas, I feel like, which has been destroyed by making too many speciality boards.

Also, idc, but i miss the more extreme stuff :(

even the r9k-exile was more entertaining than 2016/b/

Well we're now influencing presidential elections so I'd say we're probably at the pinnacle even though we are flooded with normies

Rage comics were fine when they first started until people kept trying to jam as many of the faces in them as they could. They used to be pretty much 4 pannels and only 1 or 2 of the "meme faces"

I really hope for your sake you don't believe that.

>hur dur everything is Cred Forums guiz
>huuuuuuuuur

and yet here you are...

>was the wild west better than the modern age

No.

It was fun while it lasted, but everyone grew up. Now there's lots of boards reflecting older interests.

Everyone became genuine now.

It's kind of nice.

thats the joke

kek that's not true at all
have you ever been to s4s?

>have you ever been to s4s?
No sorry.

newfags wouldn't know about Cred Forums's history of raids because Cred Forums was always sure to claim to be someone else.

...

Pre-2006 was the golden age of OC
2007-2008 was tolerable but places like Cred Forums went to absolute shit. Normies thought Cred Forums was just for nude, hookup, or gore threads and that is what it became.
2009 onwards Cred Forums is just a husk of its former self. Rarely does it do anything noteworthy or interesting. Its just rehash after rehash of shitty content and bait threads

Regardless of that I still spend atleast one hour a day lurking this shit website.

Well the fact that a presidential candidate is bringing up the dangers of cartoon frogs makes me really, really think.

>Well the fact that one of a presidential candidate's millenial staffmembers brought up the dangers of cartoon frogs in one tweet that no one beyond Cred Forums cared about two days later

Fixed

>putting neo-memes above the raids and emotions
fuck you
I agree the edgy legion "dark side of the internet" shit was gay though

they guy with the bandana and the weird guy in the suit smoking a cig were cool
that fucking legion faggot with the necklace though holy shit
he's the reason I would never even consider telling anyone I come here

is it time yet?

Too soon man, too soon.

lurked for two years because I was afraid I would get hacked, this was back in 2010, I was scared to post

>tfw the we r leejun losers that got caught still can't touch a computer

nah man its too soon

>Everyone became genuine now.
poe's law

shut the fuck up faggot

...

who remembers cuddlecat?

holy shit. This was over 10 years ago and reddit still acts like this.

Delet this or I'll backtrace you

that was fucking gay

I hate the whole 'anonymous/Cred Forums as a whole are "activists"'. Yes, there is a very small number of them who probably are, but all the 'activist' shit started with chanology, merely the next step after 'raiding'. It was a much more fun time where someone would push a stupid idea and a large enough portion of people who go do that activity in large enough numbers to cause problems. Drawball, habbo etc those times were about being chaotic asshole kids.

Not some unified politically minded body. What pisses me off more is the hijacking of the name/idea for some others political agendas. Anonymous was just a large enough and established/known thing to take.

People then got swept up in it (the masses) and those of us who'd browsed chans/imageboards got the short end of the stick. Are there some people among us with decent hacking capabilities, sure there would be hundreds of anons who have unique skillsets, but they are not representative of the idea or culture of old Cred Forums. The nature of the place also used to make for really good leaking of information, but as you've seen over the last few years. Moot and NotMoot have deals in place with FBI etc to freeze the site for a few hours when /something happens/.

I remember making a thread back in 2011 asking if people were unironically bigots/racists, and the old heads were telling me that Cred Forums originally wasn't even Edgelord Village, and that racism, cp and stormshit was much more lighthearted and not taken seriously. Sometimes I wish I could have seen that.

Now

What's a bunch of fat mask wearing retards compared to Bill Wilson and Bane?

...

...

These. Fucking 2005

...

i think 2014-2016 has been the golden age of Cred Forums, atleast for Cred Forums and /r9k/

back then, too full of dumb normalfags posting politics like its facebook now. better when everyone was a shut-in that didn't give a fuck cause it didn't affect their lives in any way.

good you distinguish the rest of the site from those two boards.

because its been shit for everyone else

Cred Forums has been getting non-stop worse since 2013, arguably the end of 2012.

I believe the robots count the death of their true community as being even earlier than that.

This hasn't actually happened in a long fucking time.

2007 2008 2009 - excellent sense of community spirit, everything done for teh lulz. Butthurt kept to a minimum. Tits or gtfo. pinnacle of Cred Forums imo

2010 - tolerable

2011 - the beginning of the end, newfags and normals start to outnumber 4channers

2012 - tumblr invades, sjw become a permanent feature.

2013 - everything is an 'ironic' meta. 'Edgy' things are frowned upon by the Facebook/tumblr tourists. Whiteknights everywhere.

2014 2015 2016-

Every thread is clickbait arguing about racism or feminism. Cred Forums consists of a permanent war between the alt right and sjw.
Generation z faggotry. Thirsty betas run rampant. Butthurt everywhere

In fact the whole internet is rip now.

>he doesn't even remember 2005-6

I feel bad for you, son. 2007 Was the last golden year. At least you experienced some of it.

Because back then it really was a secret club. Now it's a world famous website

05 - 06 was just invention of memes when it was funny/fresh, combo threads and near the end EFG threads etc.

Nah
>long cat is long
>epic fail guy

When EFG threads died my soul died a little with them.

2011 was the only good year after 2006 habbo fiasco

Cred Forums was so based back then

I did appreciate them as an underage
Now I'm not underage and I want underage to leave

>2011

Why are we sad cunts? Cred Forums is the best website on the internet. You can text, image upload, funpost, have serious discussions, and it's all anonymous and no bullshit botnet to sign up to. This site is more than the media boards.

/his/, /an/, /po/, [s4s], /news/, /o/, /out/ they're all great boards with wonderful, friendly communities

Cred Forums would have you believe otherwise, but Cred Forums is just as diverse as the very world we live in

/r9k/ had some dope memes before it got deleted.
>burst into treats
>walk into gamestop
>WHOOP DER IT IS

Back then. Now all Cred Forums does is spam cuck shit and back then you had more interesting topics thrown around than FOR YOU.

Cred Forums hasn't been the same since Cred Forums was created. They really are the worst part of this site by any standard.

this
all you have to do is look at old memes and cringe
reddit cancer only exists because it was created here first

>back then you had more interesting topics thrown around than FOR YOU
This is what butthurt haters actually believe
cry more

Its hilarious how its all misinterpreted by normalfags
all the hacking shit was done for laughs, but the media made people think it was srs bznis

>tfw wasted most of my Cred Forums time in fucking Cred Forums

who do I have to yell at to get a refund?

I cringe so hard when I see the script kiddie group "anonymous" on the news
I really wish they wouldn't call themselves that, it's fucking embarrassed.

You only say that because you came here to be an edgy bastard on the internet haet machine, back then there was some semblance of balance. There was innocent shit like that peppered among gore, raid, and football stadium bomb threat threads.

the fappening was a great return to form, even if it was fleeting and brought even more normies.

>Cred Forums embraced the right-wing because these days it's leftists who are thought policing instead of the biblethumpers in the early 2000's.

Difference is the Biblethumpers couldn't do shit, let alone understand what the internet was. Every endeavor they tried was an absolute failure. Eminem and Manson were superstars, Rap was at its' zenith.

The new Left is actively supported not just through politics but the biggest and most influential companies in the world.

>people calling liberals left
lol, read a book nigga

Don't even bother, anyone left of neoconservatives is considered a communist by a lot of these people.

you now realize that Cred Forums is older than facebook and youtube

I don't think they know what that word means.
>muh big gubmint

No shit

>mfw the debate night shills get lost and start shit posting at each other in a Cred Forums nostalgia thread

>tfw the wild west days are over

im not that guy but anonymous is more of an idea than an actual group. if you come out of the shadows you are by definition not anonymous

Nigga Cred Forums was my facebook and youtube. I remember when Cred Forums made youtube popular by memeing Tay Zonday

>implying anyone who is actually left wing would support either of those clowns

This comic is pretty cringy but it sums up Cred Forums (and Cred Forums in general) from 2006-2010ish

This used to be correct. Then the userbase hit their mid 20s and saw the state of the world and Cred Forums became trying to change the world as they realised you couldn't simply be left alone any more.

Many of us old anons despise what Cred Forums is now but there isn't any better options so we drowned in a pool of new fags.

i also had a long period after the chanology thing where i just didnt come here at all because LE LEGJUN bullshit was just too cringy

What hath man wrought?

It's really sad when kids think Cred Forums was meant for aspies when in reality it was a mix of weeaboos from 2ch and Something Awful posters who'd BTFO of the kids that now claim ownership of Cred Forums with doxxing and spam.

Let it burn, baby.

what you conceive to be the pinnacle is probably the only time i didnt come here

Do you think he still browses Cred Forums from time to time?

Yeah.

It was never for autists and weebs (though there were plenty of them), just for weird people who didn't quite fit in with the other puzzle pieces.

RIP

Was he in his rebellious stage during this pic? Was this pre luggage lad?

I think he was getting tired of the site
And then the fappening happened
I don't think GG meant jack to him, I think his mind was made up when the fappening happened.

Fuck it, duder. We're still here, and I still love this site, warts and all. Nothing on the web touches it, especially not in this age of botnet garbage

Cheers

post-luggage.

Pretty sure that bitch was living out in rockaway, which was the ferry they were on when those photos were taken. I used to see her and her ilk when they moved into the area not long before they sunk their hooks in.

Had I only known.

Who the fuck is luggage?

Poor guy.
Honestly, say what you want about how steered the site away from Snack's "Complete user" (no camwhores)...

His moving towards Gawker's XOXO VentureCapitalist/PC-Correct friendlyness for a potential buyer really goes against the lifeforce of the site. Don't blame him- moderating a community is a fucking awful job, but he should have just shut it down instead.

Look up "luggage lad". I don't want to get banned again for bringing up GG stuff. tl;dr, he paid for a euro-vacation for a Gawker Media hotgirl. She then started dating a super-model-built guy immediately when she came back.

I'm sorry that had to happen to him or anyone--- but thats what happens when you play with the wolves.

Eternal September wasn't that bad.

Honestly if you want to know what usenet was like it wasn't far from what some of Cred Forums's slower boards like /po/ are like.

2009 and 2010 were the most fun for me on Cred Forums. It's been downhill ever since.

>cuck-a-duck
dud-a-chum?

Ded-a-chek?

Did you come before? Apparently it was even better then

This "documentary" was total shit without focus. The only redeeming part were two complete weirdoes they interviewed: Bad teeth man and redneck chewbacca.

>a art

who the fuck is this lanky faggot

thats the joke newfriend

haha got him!

epic fail!

Don't be a retard.

the good old days will never come back

...

it was never good and it was immediately apparent that it was teenage cancer

I never realised how cancerous Cred Forums was until reddit came about. When that shit was blown out of proportion and a spot light is shone on your own jokes - you realise how painful it is

Anyone who knows anything knows that Cred Forums is being revived by the grace of Cred Forums and the will of Kek. Pepe has become mainstream and has even been mentioned by a Presidential candidate.

This is, by far, the greatest time in Cred Forums's history.

Pepe was already mainstream because of black twitter and celebrities posting him.

I never know what to think about these boards.
I started lurking in 07, and there was old fags here back then. So many mother fuckers now adays are like "2012 was top teir". Fuck you, Cred Forums has always been for shitposting, always.
The only difference is that back then, it was really only the "weird" or off-beat kids that would come on this site. You could pick out kids at school that looked like shooters and be like "i bet he goes on Cred Forums.. thats something we have in common". Now every edgy dicklord over the age of 12 has an ipad, smartphone, and laptop, and everyone checks out the site and post a bunch of unfunny bullshit.
I dont really know what im trying to say. I guess the sense of comradery is gone? Like back when there were more raids and less porn threads. Idk, fuck this place as always. I'll see ya guys tomw.

Cred Forums was good one year before you joined. This rule applies to every user here and always has.

COSMIC DUDE

This is true.
When I started in 2006 I was mocked for being new and I'd never see the site when it was good.

this is my first day

What made you think you could get away with lying to me?

Newfags wouldn't know

my Gold acc. IP tracker says otherwise, Chris.

Cred Forums was never good

I always took it to mean that Cred Forums would be considered good by any given user before that user joined.
Also stop posting, faggot

I used to stream that cam on my second monitor, even if nothing was happening, it was comfy.

no, it's you attention-whoring mainstream wannabe faggots who are making it worse.
