why the fuck does this board exist?
>>6883
We exist because we exist.
Complaints go to >>>/qa/
>>6883
Containment purposes
Because /r/ wasn't working.
>>6883
So you could request things in safety of your workplace.
During the holidays.
The better question is:
Why the fuck didn't it exist earlier?
>>6883
Because Hiroyuki literally started Japanese reddit, and now wants a sub reddit for everything.
>>6980
this
why the fuck does internets exist?
>>7371
memes
>>7372
We needed something for live action instead of /aco/. Sure it's /co/ related but not anymore than adaptations of novels and movie threads wouldn't fly on /lit/
>>6980
only good question
now 4chan is more useful than [spoiler] reddid [/spoiler]
>>7427
Oh, so spoiler doesn't work ;-)
>>6883
because gookmoot wants to increase the amount of low effort posting on 4chan.
>>6883
Because /r/ sucks shit for worksafe requests, /g/ was fed up with getting tech support questions, and all the other boards were getting fed up with recommendation threads. That's my theory at least.

Don't forget the complaining at /qa/. Hiro listens to them for some reason.
/r/ sucks and like much of this site was nothing but porn and porn request.
