Back then we were all 14 year olds. Even our fucking admin. Now we grew up, 4chan grew up, our admin grew up and sold us after being practically absent and disconnected for years. And now we're the old fucks that get angry at the sight of feels, xD, lol, :D or any other kind of emoticon that we used to spam like retards back then. That retarded frog annoys me so much.

The original Habbo Hotel raid.

Us, Something Awful, the original Encyclopedia Dramatica, YTMND, 7chan (I think) all got in on it too.

Everyone dates leaderless internet activism as starting at the Scientology raids, but this was its true birthplace. Those radis just kinda happened, and if it weren't for their success, Chanology would never have been a thing.

One minute, Epic Fail Guy is an obscure internet meme and the next Guy Fawkes masks are on the cover of Time.

Then I found 1chan, the Overchan, iichan, kochan, and 6chan. Watched as 420chan formed and 7chan split off to do their things.

I literally first heard of 4chan in 2005 when I was a 15 year old kid happily playing World of Warcraft and like half the server was raving on about how epic /b/ is.
That's why I just can't take people who talk about how 4chan used to be an obscure, small site seriously. Maybe when it was first founded, but by 2005 it was pretty much already the frontpage of the internet, the site literally all the cool kids went to. And this was quite some time before Chanology happened, if I remember my timeline correctly. If anything, 4chan was more mainstream in 2005-2008 period than it is right now in 2016. Back then everyone either went to 4chan or was too afraid to go to 4chan. Today, 4chan is about as relevant as SA, since the only people who still care about the site are weebs, frogposters and stormfags.
No wonder moot left.

StopTazmo was a "movement" for people to boycott NarutoFans that was basically charging for people to read online manga series of shit scanlator always did for free (in the good sense and not in the /v/ sense).

So people released pages on their released that basically say "STOPTAZMO" and don't pay for shit you should be getting for free and the like.

I think this started back in 2006-2007 but I could be remembering wrong.

We were no different than the kids now laughing at their memes.

It WAS funny. But now the jokes have been repeated many times by normalfags so it lost its value.

>>137049871
You're not trying to convince me here I hope you realize how insecure you're coming over.

Even if they failed, they tried. It's better to live the experience of having tried than regretting never doing so.

I remember reading about how 4chan was a really obscure deep web site for hackers and criminals in one huehue magazine I used to get monthly.
The guy spent a whole month trying to integrate and understand /b/ and got called a faggot a lot. I still have it, reading it nowadays is always entertaining.
But what really brought me here were the 9gag raids. I started coming to /b/ everyday even if I didn't like it. It was amusing somehow and I just couldn't let it go.
This site sure is cursed.

I think that we (Americans and Europe) are going to become the new Japan. Meaning that people will start to completely avoid relationships because they have become such a burden to our sanity that people will see that living the life without those compromise to be far more rewarding.

You can't even download anime with that speed.

>>137049808
Not just manga. Anime too. That why in the past you get "This is fan translation. If you buy this you get ripped"

I came to stoptazmo in 2005. I remember 2006 we School Rumble community pushed hard Eri in Saimoe. Even made own website just for Eri campaign.

>>137049961
Question is... did they Stop Tazmo?

>>137049972
Pretty sure "MySpace the Movie" is an 11 minute parody.

>>137045069
We sure did. Just goes to show there are barely any oldfags left. Back then, it was #Lurk, mangatraders, or stoptazmo; anybody who read manga online from trashy sites like onemanga or mangafox who resized and watermarked scans was told to go back to Gaia or Narutoforums.

>>137048084
It was around 2007. I was just browsing anime in google then I got directed here. I went in blind because 4chan isn't that well known in my country and I've been using internet only for a year.

You know the rest.

Didn't grow up with computers, but damn. 1998 was a good year. Cartoon Cartoons started taking off, and France won the world cup.

>>137049980
Kind of.

Read this one.

It's a classic.

>>137048084
I just got big into manga at the end of 2010 / beginning 2011. I didn't even look at other sites and came straight here, I don't even know why.

>>137050061
Well I am talking mostly about the people that already are on America and Europe. I am not counting "immigrants" that will be pushed really hard to try to avoid the deflation that has been happening in Japan over the last 30 years.

is it bad that even though i have a full time job i still go here, like a clockwork? Every time i open my browser i just unknowingly open this site unconsciously without a reason.

>>137049876
Repeatance in one thread like that is ok, especially with caricatures. Keit-Ai spamming is just obnoxious.

I used to be infatuated with shinkis, while googling for pictures this place appeared, I may still have the original pics from 2006 somewhere.
Also I was just initiated into type-moon stuff by some ps2 game that came that year, Melty Blood act cadenza and I saw this place posted pictures of tsukihime all the time, I decided to stay and I'm still here.

You can't be serious.
They tried? they ruined most of their lives.
They will never be able to look back and think about it as a nice experience.

/a/'s catalog is the homepage of my browser.

>>137050148
At least Keit-Ai is limited to /a/. Frogposting has reached all the way to Twitter and Facebook.
