You wake up on Jow Forums in 2003

>remember all the things you did and browsed during old /b/ days.

why is /b/ so irrelevant now

I would be 3 years old

Topics are split between more boards

It's just horny Facebook shitters brought in by the Fappening

Because other boards take it place, then that board dies eventually.

It went from /b/ to /v/, to Jow Forums, to /sp/, to Jow Forums, to Jow Forums, to Jow Forums, to /tv/ and now it's looking like /co/ is the shitposting board.

>/co/ is the new /b/
you have to be fucking with me, /co/? lmao fuck off

>/co/mblr
no

/co/ooooooooooming

No hear me out guys. It's not the tumblr board we use to know. It's full of COOM brains and shitposters now. All the tumblrinas left.

/co/ fucking /co/

Its role as the nexus of Jow Forums got replaced. Now it's some mixture of /v/ and Jow Forums with a bit of /tv/.

Sinkposting wasn't till a few years slterc newfriend.

>It was, I remember people posted encrypted CP for others to undo with a simple ass program, can't remember the name of said program though.

Lol no! People just posted straight up sea pea. Threads stayed up for hours and was first taken down when the mods finished fapping!

Reminder: /co/ ultimately gave birth to /mlp/.
Do you remember the rampage horsefuckers went on before being contained?

I wonder how many "bronies" now have become trannies?

Cancer comes from everywhere. Jow Forums gave us trumpturds and redditors, /tv/ gave us sneed, /b/ gave us fur and meet up threads(before they got contained to /soc/.

history of Jow Forums truly is fascinating

It actually used to be good!

Don't forget that Jow Forums gave us incels and orbiters, /his/ gave us pregnant anne frank and /mu/ gave us anne frank shit aswell

It used to be cancer
Now it's legal cancer

Oh yeah. The incel and Jow Forums shooter shit really fucked us now. At least 8ch got shot down first lmao

user is referring to steganography threads and yes they were a thing for a while until moot removed the ability to hide files in images.
The goons were always normalfags at the end of the day and the one thing they only ever moderated harshly and swiftly was pizza. Jow Forums was never a hub for it and the amount of actual pizza posted was relatively rare in contrast of other imageboards at the time (maste rc.han, rip ;_;) and the greater clearweb itself.
The propaganda that Jow Forums was some uber nsfw site was an image presented to gain a larger userbase and not something legitimately reflective of the content.

>no Jow Forums
i wait another couple years

>/his/ gave us pregnant anne frank
Based

own :3

Better start shitposting in /a/ until m00t makes a /jp/ into a thing

>moot

we're in 2003 dummy

Now I wait the whole day to enter the site
Fuck my country and it's dialed internet

Back then the only non white on this site was 14/f/cali

yes i forgot sorry

>Back then the only non white on this site was 14/f/cali
Tell me more

Sorry i cant, times were so different back then

>Jow Forums is japanese, stupid idiot, this site always had anime

That fucked up huh?
Damn

/v/ took over, then Jow Forums

I remember having one window open with Jow Forums and another minimised window with a site site like vladmodels, sneaking over to the phone and removing the phone line so I could use the internet while my mum was asleep.
The internet was honestly a different beast back then and I had no idea at the time about the legality of what I was consuming or how fine of a line I was cutting.
I remember being angrily woken up one early morning from my mum because I had passed out while on the computer. She was pissed off about the drinking all the while I was sweating bullets and thanking that she was too computer illiterate to realise that there were a few minimised browser and image windows with child models, among other illicit content.
Everything was just there on the clearweb and my only concern was hiding it from others in the place I was using the computer. Looking back, I don't know how I got away with it or how much worse it could have been if I had access to ADSL, lel.

Yeah
Incredible how things changed in 16 years

/v/ is the fastest board on this website, faster than Jow Forums most of the time too

>16 years
Fuck.

zoomer here
what was 2003 like?

gmask ?
i never seeked or found cp with it, i just enjoyed solving the puzzles

Dangerous. Opening an email could destroy your computer.

Forums were still a popular thing, samefags were called sockpuppets and the Christian religious right were universally mocked online.
The majority of normalfags wouldn't spend more than an hour a day online outside of sites like myspace or yahoo/msn/etc. chat rooms.

the fox news special killed 4channel

Internet was a peer to peer utopia, people laughted at the idea of adds on the internet

I remember when being atheist was some kind of revolutionary/hip thing back then
Now it's a subject of mockery and comparisson to s0ý boys

>Now it's a subject of mockery and comparisson to s0ý boys
Only on Jow Forums because it's been invaded by unironic christfags and MAGAfags

Golden year of gaming.
>Knights of the Old Republic
>Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
>Prince of Persia: Sands of Time
>Rayman 3
>Beyond Good and Evil
>Call of Duty

loads of small communities about very specific stuff

Sure, but you got my drift

I miss Jow Forums :(

the delusion is high

>I remember when being atheist was some kind of revolutionary/hip thing back then
i don't but maybe that's a brazilian thing

The whole rational scene became overran by right wingers and then christfag right wingers.
The stray nutter who would try to preach in the Richard Dawkins forums are now the key demographic of the self named "Intellectually dark web" of self styled rationalists.
Kind of a bizarre irony when you think about it.

Or maybe the other way around is a french thing

I remember how everyone made fun of biblethumpers who tried to warn us about the dangers of homo marriage.

it was an american thing aswell with the amazing atheist and the atheistsphere on youtube
then during a convention some guy hit on a feminist on an elevator which prompted her to falsely accuse him of rape and everything went downhill

>Only on Jow Forums because it's been invaded by unironic christfags and MAGAfags

No it was not! They where mocked arround 2008-2010 because people just got tired of circle jerking smug self righteous atheists and they where also a pretty easy group to target.

Wish I made screenshots of some of the more hilarious religious trolls. They would fit right in alongside the boomers on Jow Forums. Qanon, fucking lol.

maybe so, attendance to church/belief in god is traditionally very low here

/co/ is truly a mysterious place

This.

>I remember how everyone made fun of biblethumpers who tried to warn us about the dangers of homo marriage.
Yup they where right about that though

It was big in the Anglosphere largely thanks to US media, thanks to stuff like American schoolboards trying to force teachers to push creationism over science. Stuff like that were juwt too memeworthy to not attract a huge number of gawkers.

What the actual fuck

*making fun of you*

Had a chuckle.

That post belonged to a pedo thread

I wonder what the internet will look like in 2035. Or the world in general.

I first started browsing in 2011

>I just don't want this board being crapped up by 12yo loosers
Ironic, given the fact that moot himself was 15 when he was writing that.

yes they were. back then i didn't understand why they were so opposed to it and now look where we are.

Actually, 15 from 12 is quite the age gap, even nowadays

I expect war or something else that will greatly reduce our luxurious lives will happen before that

Probably internet won't exist anymore
We'll be living in a post apocalyse world
Sounds ridiculous, but back then people actually believed that

Pretty funny when you realize that moot was literally 15-years-old and he was busy creating a fucking loli board. How weird and surreal it must have been for him when the site really took off and suddenly he had FBI party vans outside his home, when he was just some dumb weeb teenage who wanted to discuss his favorite chinese cartoons.

yo old fags
How much did the 2016 election damaged this site?
Was it the worst thing to happen?

How do we get moot fired from google for the lolicon board?

pre 2016 is not old lmao!!!
ive been on this cursed website for like 7 years now or more

the 2016 election is when pol took over and became even more relevant than they already were

before that, people wanted pol to be deleted but now pol is too big to delete so moot missed his chance because he thought that you shouldnt delete an active community but 1 year after he left pol became even worse and it was already garbage

/b/ used to be fun to browse, it was very cringe but now it is just all obscene threads about porn and bad stuff its been like that for years now too bad it used to be THE board

>pre 2016 is not old lmao!!!
That's why I asked the old fags

hownew.ru?
the very first rally that attempted to bring Jow Forums culture out of Jow Forums was severely mocked during election period and no attempt to bring culture out was made until trump won and all faggots start HWNDU

All of them either became trannies, fascists, or both. Should have been put to sleep

2017
I discovered the website in 2016, but didn't took to seriously
Then I started browsing /tv/ more oftenly and now I'm here
I didn't came here because of the elections or because of Jow Forums though, I just found out about the site on a bad time

>2017
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Do you even remember /z/ bro? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA

This is too much, I feel like the only one on here that's not new
