Well, nice knowing you, guys. 4chan will be a shill site soon.
I hate this guy enough to switch to a different chan if he manages to get himself involved...
well shit
>>76666
Yeah.
I have a feeling that he would want to make drastically jewish changes in the event that he got anything remotely close to power.
If he fucks 4chan up, a new one will be made. 4+4chan was spawned just over the GG censorship on /v/. If a jew takes over and fucks up the whole site there will be a new 4chan up same day, and he's going to have to spend a lot of money on round the clock moderators to push out the oldfags.
>>76675
true. but last time I checked, 4+4 is barely active save places like pol. But others like co, not so much.
Might be a good thing. I know reddit hates him so he cant be that bad.

Is that hiroshimoot tweet real?
>>76680
It's very real, sadly enough. These tweets aren't all of the info available, though. Shkreli released a video shortly afterward, in which he said that he'd find a way to keep 4chan afloat without increasing moderation. Not sure exactly what he plans to do, other than pump his own money into it.
I mean, it isn't surprising that mootwo is looking for outside support wherever he can find it. This vietnamese cartoon blog has always been a financial hole.
He just posted not too long ago that drastic actions would have to be taken if this site is to stay alive. Something to the effect of either pumping each page full of nasty, potentially malicious ads, closing some boards, or increasing the privileges of 4chan pass owners.
If the jewmeister can figure out a way to make this place profitable (or at least self-sustainable) without sacrificing the board culture, I'm personally okay with it.
>>76689
>Hiro announces 4chan is in money trouble.
>Largest "DELETE /pol/" spamwave hits /qa/.
>Jew offers to buy a stake in 4chan.
I think 4chan's about to have one of it's biggest internal disputes.
>>76700
Apparently he's anti-SJW. Doesn't stop him from not understanding 4chan and making all boards pay to post or fucking up /pol/.
I hate /pol/ as much as the next guy, but it works as a containment board.
I think he should just go with the ad network route. Most people on 4Chan are smart enough to deal with those kinds of ads.
>>76700
Why can't we just have moot back.
>>76729
Because moot washed his hands of this place to work at Google. He put much more into this site than was reasonable, and I don't blame him for wanting to do something else after all this time.
>>76711
>I hate /pol/ as much as the next guy
Fuck off. /pol/ is boss.
>>76679
You are literally purest cancer
>>76665
This place is never going to be not shit
But if a millionaire fuck wants to dump money on it without changing anything, it would save us from going through all this shit
But if he has any say on how 4chan is run, he's just going to do a bad job, he's not even a newfag, he's a total outsider
Also
>all these faggots that bought into the Shkreli is evil meme
niggers get informed
>>76666
Stop trying to lead us astray, Satan
>>76728
W-what? Do you even understand your own words? The ad route is absolutely fucking useless if everyone's gonna avoid seeing the ads anyway.
>>76665
>4chan will be a shill site soon
>implying it isn't already
I don't think 4chan will die unless/until they start reddit tier censorship or make accessibility a lot harder
>>76775
I mean I would love all the /b/ tier talk that faggot is doing if we were in 2008.
Nowadays 4chan needs to cut on the newfags, get better moderators on all big boards and keep the ads at a minimum if possible.
I think Martin just wants to make this place Reddit 2.0, he's a confirmed jew I wouldn't be surprised if he wants a website with an already existing userbase to start his own social website.
Just curious but what are the yearly cost of this site roughly? And how much is this shitty place even worth?
>>76975
I'd be surprised if it's worth anything. This place has to be a money pitt. 4chan is like a child, it'll take up all your resources while never giving you anything back and in return you get resentment, sass, and shitty threads
He's not a Jew. He's a Muslim. Look up his name.

>Doesn't stop him from not understanding 4chan and making all boards pay to post or fucking up /pol/.

if I must pay to use 4chan, I will pa to mook, not jewk
>>76711
>containment boards work
Hey newfriend. Enjoying the board?
>>76665
Just to be clear, he's not a jew, not a bad guy, he's actually super humanitarian, and he's a post-ironic bantzmaster. He's like an ideal materialisation of meme magic.
>>76665
Shkreli is absolutely based and is the only person I can think of other than moot that I'd want at the helm of 4chan.

Shkreli seems like a long time lurker tbh
>>77267
>he didn't see the video
he's clueless af
>>77281
Link plz?
>>76665
I wouldn't want that scum bag touching anything but a live electrical wire
>>77294
Edgy. Let me guess, you think he's bad because of that one news article linked to you on reddit?
>>76711
/pol/ is the best board on this site, and your tears are delicious, faggot.

>/pol/ is the best board on this site, and your tears are delicious, faggot.
Exactly my point, enjoy your hated board of hatred. Also
>Crying because there is something you don't like on the internet
Yeah, no, I leave that to SJW and /pol/acks, I just ignore stuff because I don't get triggered that easily.
He withdrew.

Martin Shkreli answer :
>No. I have withdrawn from the 4chan process. I wish them the best of luck going forward.
