Lets take a moment to remember all the good times we had over the years
>>120155064
/a/ is even worse than /v/, this shithole had no good memories for me. I have no idea why I've stayed here for the past few years. Fuck me.
This was before moot turned cuck
>>120155218
This was on the same day moot put up the new banners.
>>120155149

Let's hope those /a/-moments will last post-moot.
I remember Accel-spammer's last stand back when.We miss you, Accel-sama...
What is the story behind this denpa onna thing?

That was not by Descartes.
You can Google to find the most plausible origin, which is some recent Internet forum IIRC; forgot what it was.
>>120160268
I remember mods banning this on sight.
>>120162980

Most memorable moment on /a/ recorded for posterity.http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm22239389
>>120155064
Shit, I remember before that went up. There was a thread on /a] (or whatever it was called at the time) where they came out and said they were a sociologist studying us, and everyone was basically like "woah, that's pretty cool." Everyone was pretty chill and helpful, which seemed to really surprise them.
I'm gonna miss you guys, I love you all.
RIP in peace
>>120165583
i still don't have a fucking clue what that logo means or is supposed to look like
>>120165652
I believe it's an edited version of a German campaign against pedophilia.
>>120165652
It's a hand between a moot's legs. It's from a German campaign against mootophilia.
>Tsunami of 2011
I also remember that due to the General Thread shitstorm that was brought up like a couple of weeks earlier by a couple of trips
>>120155149
>/v/ talking shit about /a/ of all boards
>>120165094
Good things don't last forever.
Everyone is just freaking out for no reason, nothing will change.
Just some unknown person will be in charge and nothing changing. Thus, any change will be targeted at no one.
4chan will truly be a place of anarchy with the law hiding behind the shadows as it was meant to be.

I wish I had some screens of our hero, accelspammer, to post. Great times to be on /a/, those were.
>>120155149
Agreed. I prefer /r9k/ and talking about my feels without a bunch of angry faggots calling me a faggot for not pretending to prefer cartoon girls and a life in solitude.

Bring back accelspam
Alright since were going down memory lane i need help. I've been looking for a fucking old cartoon off of youtube for the past month aboutNarutoIt was some shitty flash that had like at least 5 episodes all about random Akatsuki shit and i specifically remember that annoying ass Crazy Frog song coming out around then and there were parts of that orange frog lip singing it and sasuke signing Somebody's watching me with orochimaru in the background.
Been a good 8 years now. I don't regret all of the time I have supposedly wasted here.
>>120166020
You must have stumbled upon a Cuck Parade thread.
>>120166020
It's too late /a/non, this place is long gone. I miss the moe-shit era where every other show was a K-ON ripoff. Anime quality may have dipped a bit, but at least /a/ was better then.
I don't even know where to go now.

It really depends on who the new admin is. But considering that it is more likely going to be from an inhouse source chances are high that shit is going to get worse.
I wish we had visible sage again, noko wasn't automatic, threads actually 404'd and there were no archives.
>>120166461
2009 was probably my favorite time

>>120166528
If there were no archives there's a chance I'd be posting like a newfag.
Can we have a minute of silence for moot?

>>120166432
Another deflection of "those aren't OUR guys" yet again. It's like trying to deflect criticism of /v/ by saying "Oh it's just /b/". It doesn't work like that because /a/ has it's fair share of autists.
I hope you guys enjoyed your many SnK threads homegrown on /a/ being festered by tumblr.
This guy is probably a harem MC
>>120155064

>>120166298
>>120166455
When is Kom Susser Tod going to autoplay
>>120166382
Do you really think the admin will go and say 'hey everyone, I'm the new guy in charge, cya' ?
It's just too open. Especially since all the people working behind the scenes aren't really known to most people on 4chan.
Whenever something would change, people just assume moot himself did all the work or made the decision. It's just that moot is seen as *the* final word on anything which has been used to terrible effect.
>moot said X was fine
>moot said that X was not allowed
etc etc.
Without moot, no one will be able to use him, or the new leader assuming he/she doesn't show themselves, and boards will maintain their own culture.
Moot saying he's leaving might be an actual good change in the sense that there will be no change.

I wish that I could remember my early days here. I used to have an extreme on and off situation with 4chan due to being in an abusive situation at the time, and I kept having my computer taken away. Only after I got a new computer in my freshman year do I have a clear memory of posting on /a/ consistently.

It's decent. Anime had a surprising level of fanservice (for harem/romance at the time), and the anime was fun because it gave us yandere Kaede whereas she's just complete deredere from day one in the game.

It's funny because I still remember just lurking /b/ and being the newfag and underage at the time, I fell for those raid threads. Having the autist within me, I clicked the first one starting from the left which is [a/. Like finding a place to settle in, it just happened.
>>120167212
Pretty much I was an edgy depressed high schooler and I heard about how fucked up this "4chan" place was, and decided that it would be the perfect place to take my school shooter Charles Manson cult attitude to. Fast-forward how many years and I'm an adult too bored with life to have time to be edgy and I'm still stuck here. At least I left the edgy boards behind and can enjoy a good laugh at them
I guess he got sick of pandering to weaboos

I have to catch a train in six hours and I haven't gotten any sleep.
Or maybe I'm asleep right now and this is all a dream?
I came here for the anime and stayed for the discourse but this place has been dieing before now and moot leaving won't change anything but it's symbolic of the way the internet and society is changing.
Back when I first started coming here in 06 most online forums were still cesspools and I hated it but I understood why it needed to exist now that it's pretty much gone I wonder if people will ever understand how important it is to have mainstream forums where you could say or share anything without being "downvoted" or banned.
I also don't feel like I have an ideology that I can associate with. It feels like the two options nowadays are either get buttfucked by republican backed fiscal and social policies or get buttfucked by SJW ones.

I remember when he replied in a visibly short and annoyed manner when I requested better support for an outdated platform I was using. That was the only one of my many emails to him he replied to, and when I got it I felt as special and exited as the time I got a personal email response from one of my favorite musicians

>>120167212
Although I didn't start posting until about a year later, I found out about 4chan after finding out about Chanology back in 2008 while researching scientology out of boredom. I guess that means I was one of the newfags who came here because of that exposure that all the pre-08fags say ruined the site.

Around 2012 when /b/ raided9gag. I started browsing 4chan in general and even though it was so bad I couldn't help but keep browsing it.
I got into /a/ fairly quickly and then discovered anime, which ended up being the media I have most compatibility with. I just fucking love anime and I have to thank /a/ for it.

Back then there were no normal people in the internet, we could write like that and nobody would care ("pretend to be a retard"), but in 2007 face book and TBBT killed the ghetto wild west feel of the internet and made it mainstrea, we all moved to writing correctly while the "normal" people adopted that writing pattern ("being a retard").

She sure was fucking terrible.But what do I care, I was using 7chan at the time.
I've been browsing /a/ and /v/ for years, and I'm still shocked at how stupid this "rivalry" has been. I mean, /v/ is shit but the people who propagate that the most is /v/ themselves, nobody hates their own board more than /v/ does, and because of that everybody else parrots what they say, about how /v/ is the worst board, /v/ is utter shit, /v/ doesn't talk about video games, ironic shitposting, and so on.
/v/ isn't so bad as people in this board make it out to be. Sure, it has some problems, but overall. video game discussion still happens, not everybody on /v/ is retarded or shitposting (when it comes to videogames, they're still retarded when it comes to anime), and is actually better at handling tripfags than /a/ is. It's just that /v/ suffers from extreme lack of moderation. Just look at how big that board is. Reporting a poster that isn't OP? He won't get banned. Public bans don't happen there anymore. If you're shitposting and you're OP, chances are you won't get banned, and if you do it's only 30 minutes or 2 days.
>>120176267
Good stuff.
Why did moot ban dubs?
>>120176279

that's how we know he was always one of us

>>120170674
I will stay here till the end.
I am kinda sad to realize that I will be a loner on the internet again if 4chan dies. I spent 7 years on the internet before I joined here and I never talked with anybody online or posted anything anywhere during all those years. Back then I never considered this as bad and I will return to this state once /a/ isn't there anymore since I hate forums and social stuff, but it makes me sad to think about this right now.
>>120166667
>/a/ thinks they understand how relationships work
Yea right.
My idea:
>He's gonna let somebody completely incompetent take the wheel on purpose
>make sure they do everything wrong
>then moot will reluctantly go back to handling 4chan
He'll get all the respect he's wanted for a while and hopefully for him people will stop being so rude and unapreciative. This is a pr stunt so that he can set himself up as a hero.

Semi-oldfag here. Oldfags are still here, but not many of them. It kinda hurts me to see so many newfags, especially recently (influxes from the last 2-5 years). I never had much against them as long as they kinda fit in but it's like the board itself became something totally different by now. We even have stream- or dubthreads which don't get deleted now.
Remember the good times!

Will Mr.moot at least tear down that wall before he leave?
So how many Christmas days have you spent on /a/?
>>120175193
Pretty much. 'Memes' are what happen when inside jokes get spread and repeated outside a group. Problem is, since they are outsides, they don't get the context or set-up of what made it funny in the first place and just randomly parrot the punchline. It's inevitable since this is the internet and you can't really have a 'close' group in the way of real life cliques.

I remember when we were animu & mango, and no captchas.
I remember during my first year, back when I was still learning on /b/, some faggot was insulting and threatening moot through his e-mail.
moot responded by posting the conversation and screen caps on /b/ in real time, WITHOUT redacting the guy's e-mail.
The guy just kept blabbering like, you better take down those picture asshole, until the guy apologized and started begging moot to stop. Everyone was e-mailing the fag.
I loved the waifu war thread from like 3 years ago.

They tried to contact him on Twitter first, but he's even said he doesn't read it, so I'm pretty sure some mod went and woke him up.

Are you feeling it?

Anything with the word creature in it should be removed, and cunny should be a banned word. You guys are legit pedophiles, this is a 2-d only zone. Same treatment should go to the fucking imouto threads, your shit doesn't fucking belong on /a/
>>120181996
But lolis are 2D
>>120182093
imoutos too.
>>120181996
You're part of the problem.
>>120182093
You faggots disguise your threads, but we both know you trail off into 3-D. I'm not sure why you're even trying to defend something so blatant
>>120181996
>cunny should be a banned word
Only because it sounds retarded. Is "loli pussy" not good enough?
>>120182407
>but we both know you trail off into 3-D
What the fuck who brought this faggot to /a/?
>>120182093
Doesn't matter
sjw can't differentiate fiction from reality anyway
>>120182370
Sure I am, buddy. You continue bringing down the board with your retardation. You can call me a normalfag if it makes you feel any better. I love loli, but you guys can't stop there for some odd reason.
>>120181996
But imouto threads are great! specially when they have blogging and shit like that olivia guy
>>120181996
I'm feeling it now
>>120182461
Loli pussy is great, cunny is a terrible word, and it's why I hate it being used. It was a fucking joke a few months ago, and suddenly people are using it unironically.

Seems like there was a lot more going on back than than now.

There was. The best probably has to be when everyone was lanced jack and taiga.
Second best was when everyone was Janced Lack.
Worst and third best was the whole thing with the accelspammer a few years after '09.
>>120180401
Of course not anon, who else is going to criticize your shit taste? :)
This is fucking pathetic, after years of moots shitposting he finally decides to leave and suddenly you're all on his dick.
Take a second to leave your shitty generals and waifu threads and actually look at what this board has become. You could easily mistake /a/ for any other forum at this point our threads have become that boring.
Every series has a dedicated circlejerk with their own little group of regulars who never want to talk about anything else and probably don't even bother to visit the rest of the board. OC is almost extinct with reposts being the overwhelming majority of threads every day. Just look at this thread, all these screencaps are from ages ago, nothing notable happened on /a/ in 2014. Think about that
A BOARD ON 4CHAN HAD NOTHING HAPPEN FOR AN _ENTIRE YEAR_
This used to be a tight knit community, now it's like I'm visiting an entirely different website when I enter a thread. What makes /a/ any different from MAL, r/anime, or any other forum nowadays? I can't think of a single thing.
Here's some food for thought, why do you think Kinomod hasn't posted on /a/ in well over a year? Surely you guys must have noticed by now.
>>120182943
Didn't Kinomod get removed from office for keeping r/a/dio threads alive?
>>120182943
Mods haven't posted on any boar for a while, they've been silenced literally.
>>120182826
Did anything notable happen in 2014 at all?
>>120183048
bullshit, didn't we have the whole thing with that one mod who wasn't from /a/ deleting loli threads and shit back at the start of '14?
>>120182943
I bet part of the reason for this is the catalog. Everyone stays inside one or two threads instead of looking through all the different pages and posts to see what catches their eye.
>>120182943

Isn't this kind of obvious? What do you want me to do; go post in threads about shows I don't follow at all? Well some people do that anyway and 99% of the time; they're just shitposters.
>A BOARD ON 4CHAN HAD NOTHING HAPPEN FOR AN _ENTIRE YEAR_
Call it heresy or whatever, but I really don't care if something big happens or not. I just want a reasonable place to discuss anime.
>>120183188
That was because kino was fired. He was the only thing keeping other mods from tampering with the board, but he couldn't keep his fucking mouth shut about politics. With him gone, other mods dropped in and shat all over the board just because. Kino spent almost entire days policing the board's for you faggots and when his time came, everything went to shit.
>>120183266
It's a totally different dynamic from the period of time that there was tons of OC. You didn't have 1 24/7 thread for each currently airing show, that's probably at least 3/4 of what's on /a/ at any given time now.
The koume threads are gone too ;_;

board as in /a/, not the rest of 4chan.

That's not so bad. /a/ could use more discussion about older shows, but it's not surprising that what's currently airing is what gets the most discussion.
