It’s been a while since I uploaded a large batch of 4chan threads to the Yotsuba Society Archives. The first batch of threads was from my collection of 4chan threads I’ve saved in 2008. With a few exceptions they’ve been exclusively 4chan related. The first batch was fine to upload with me myself doing the basic html work, but it took me about three or two weeks to get the files public because I had to do them by hand one html line at a time. Uploading the files are easy, but the main issue is creating the html links.
Since the inception of 4chan’s /b/, /b/tards there have been calling themselves newfags and oldfags in order to gain a sense of superiority of one another. These two groups have a long conflict with each other since its inception. Newfags are considered “the cancer killing /b/” because a good portion of them are middle to high school age. Oldfags consider /b/ as never good, because of its constantly deteriorating quality.
Congratulations! You dropped out of college or high school, or you got fired off your job because of downsizing or whatever reason so that your employer will continue to make more money out of letting go of people. You can’t have your normal lifestyle (read normal social activities like going to the bar or restaurant) because you don’t have a regular flow of disposable income. Besides you need disposable income to have a normal social life right? But since you can’t your only option is to watch television to get away from the shock and pain of what’s happening to you.
In this tutorial I am going to be teaching you how to quickly and easily archive a Web site using Wget. Whilst it requires little interaction to start the process, it may take a long time to finish archiving, depending on both your local and the servers' connection speed. We'll also cover the basics of ignoring certain directories, which can be useful for a multitude of purposes (that I shall list later).
2channel is the largest anonymous forum in the world, where Japanese people can reveal their inner feelings and their true side in complete anonymity. 2channel contains 837 boards of every subject imaginable in Japan, categorized into about 41 broad subjects. Each board has its own culture, memes, resident posters, yet bound together with the common 2channel culture. The site is very powerful that the Japanese Government, businesses, and law enforcement monitor the site for their own various reasons.
Futaba Channel was created during the August crisis of 2001, when 2channel was in danger of being closed down due to overwhelming server load due to the ever expanding use from the media coverage. 2channel made two responses to the crisis, this and another one preserving the textboard coming from UNIX. In order to differate itself from 2ch.net, the admin created a url to 2chan.net. While started as a textboard refuge for anime, manga, video game, and other varied otaku it transformed into an imageboard due to a need to share images without using off-site hosts.
- Spring has come and passed, the peace can never last, wake me up when summer ends.
You might as well wake up. Summer will never end. Especially for imageboards since 2007.
All internet forums, online games, and other internet spaces usually degrade to the point where new people will change the original culture that was established. This is inevitable for everyone of them. The only difference is how these people will handle the new folk to assimilate into a community to less the chance of degradation. This is the same thing that happened to USENET in 1993.
Raids, which are defined as a spontaneous attack to punish a site (DDOSing it and taking it offline) or harrass an individual (by prank calling them) take place all the time. There haven't been any invasions, which I define as a planned attack involving multiple *chans to overwhelm a site and embarrass the owner (by defacing the front page of the site, releasing personal details of the users, etc) since early 2007.
