>>144317162
I think moot is a lurker on /m/ /jp/ and /a/. I bet he is lurking this thread and we wouldn't even know it. Basically moot didn't die, he became Santa.
>>144317276
But moot hates /jp/.

>>144317515
nah anon
>>144317590
I thought /fit/ was his current board.
>>144317851
I don't know, in his final q&a he said that he stopped lifting.
QUACK
he can't browse 4chan from his work at google, people would think he is weird

How did Snacks feel about moot's retirement?
>>144322699
Whatever happened to him?
Who's that?
>>144316376
I still have his thread on my thread watcher for some reason.
Who's moot?
Not that Hiro is a bad owner but fuck I miss moot man.

Hey guys, what's going on in this thread? Oh, I moot. Honk Honk

>>144313186
Who is this?
>>144324037
That anon was talking about W.T. Snacks, not moot.
What japanesse animes did he like??
moot was a faggot whose only redeeming factor was introducing chans to the anglophone net
4chan is literally the worst chan there is however
>>144323950
speaking of that pic, anybody going to be at Otakon in a few weeks?
>>144324078
The anime cutest girl of them all
posting rare moots
Isn't he at Google now?
>>144324150
LotGH, Eva, Yotsuba, Azumanga for sure. Not sure about anything else.
>>144323780
I wouldn't count on it.
He went full SJW this winter and has stated that not closing down 4chan in 07-08 was the biggest mistake of his life and that he feels disgusted by the site.
He said he felt sorry for all the lives 4chan and the *chan-culture had affected negatively, and regretted the role he played in getting the ball rolling.
>>144323775
It's more likely than you think.
>>144324153
the 4chan copy-cat sites are worse. 8ch probably being the best copy-cat site though
>>144324254

>>144323805
So why isn't Hiro as cute?
>>144324122
>>144324150
Cowboy BeBop
and what
>>144324218
said
What I want to know is, what did he think of Card Captor Sakura?
>>144324357
Just look at his tumblr site man.
>>144323528
some faggot
>>144324203
>>144324153
So, he was basically the Bruce Lee of Chinese internet memes?
>>144324150
I think he said Planetes was one of the most recent things he watched either in his last panel or a bit earlier.
>>144324412
He's evil
>>144324441
link?
>>144324461
fucking stupid namefag didnt come off fuck
>>144324467
His works aren't actually that good but is revered because of high initial exposure among a new audience?
Yeap, sounds appropriate.
>>144324412
Do you guys have a Hiro folder by now? I lumped his pics together with moot pics.
>>144324254
Bullshit on all levels.
He grew distant with 4chan because he was too busy with business and running the site. He completely fell behind with anime and was falling behind with anime culture as a whole.
He talks about this and more in his last Q&A.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYUKJBZuUig
>>144324412
Hiro should make his presence more felt.
Moot was right to abandon this shithole sinking ship of a website
>>144313186
Ewww 3DPD
Who /cried during Q&A/ here?
>>144324646
He talks about a lot of shit in the final Q&A. That god damn thing is several hours long (and I was there for all of it).
>>144324412
He has a different personality.
That's basically it.
>>144324700
N-not me.
I just want him to post with a capcode once in a while.
>>144324689
You wash that dirty whore mouth
>>144324412
I don't know, Hiro's pretty moe dude.
>>144324763
He's not allowed anymore.
Would get banned on the spot.
>>144324412
He is a shy little girl compared to Moot who has been pretty dominant
>>144324777
Yes dad
>>144324706
Me too, almost. I fell asleep near the end, but listened to the rest on the next day.
The whole fucking thing felt surreal at the time, it was so sad.
>>144324839
So is this correct:
Moot: Asuka
Hiro: Rei
???
>>144324700
Here
>>144324818
>>144324873
Yeah, listening to moot ramble on for hours was interesting. I cried a couple of bitch tears with the final good bye.
>>144324898
How long till some old slut buys this website and tries to fuck the underage kids on /v/?
>>144324898
So hiro is not a human being?
>>144324818
wish i saw him post more only saw him on his first Q&A
>>144322555
>you will die without ever having gotten a (you) from moot
>>144324331
at least theyre not as hotpocketed as here
8ch*n has become a dump though (which is actually moots fault thanks to the ridiculous amount of /pol/acks there)
>>144313186
Moot andWTSnacksSOL anime when?
>>144324991
Maybe you did and you just never knew it because he wasn't using his nameat least I hope that's what happened to me
>>144324991
I've gotten 3.
:3
>>144324935
It's already happened.
>>144324898
>>144324991
I got called a newfag by moot in 2009.
I wish I had been around more when the site was still smaller and more closely knit.
>>144324254
Implying 4chan didn't act as depression relief for many and wasn't a great outlet for anons who weren't socially inept.
Also 4chan still a pretty awesome site as one can easily talk about any topic, anons are honest, there are certain circlejerks but then again there is little conformity of opinion and people aren't afraid to call shit shit.
>4chan will never have both m00t and hiro as admins
Oh god, I miss him so much
>>144325069
many chans have that atmosphere.
>>144324991
>tfw moot gave me a (You)
I will treasure it forever.
Just one more time I want to see moot's trip.
>>144325101
From what I've seen Hiro hardly interacts with the community at all. Moot at least showed up every few weeks on one board or another.
What If....
Tom from MySpace took ownership of 4chan instead of hiro after moot left?
>>144325071
>tfw when the ruling culture mafia wants to block all unsanctioned opinions on social media so that no one's feelings can be hurt
I hope they never get to 4chan.
>>144325150
Anon, just let go
>>144325155
I think Hiro is a bit crippled by the language barrier.
>>144325177
He might be my one and only friend but I barely know the guy
>>144325155
Hiro posts on /qa/ every now and then. Last month he thanked a guy for complimenting his photo.
>>144325216
He said we were here forever.
>>144325140
They are all shitty copycats of the one true thing. Even the oldest of them.

I also imagined that early /b/ culture would last forever.
>>144325331
It hurts anon. It hurts so much
>>144325146
What was the context behind the question?
>>144325331
Implying he isn't anonymously posting now.
>>144323860
WT Snacks is still doing Midnight Snacks every Tues at Midnight. I meet him randomly at an anime con in Chicago recently.
>Snacks: I doesn't go on 4chan anymore.
>Me: The boards started going to shit in 2010
>Snacks: [silent agreement and reluctant nod]
>How moot is doing? He's at Google now, ay?
>I don't talk to him much anymore
I then went and got a print of a loli from the artist's alley and tried to get him to sign it. He signed it "moot" with hearts for the o's.
>>144325577

Implying Google isn't filled of social misfits and outcasts.
moot was a fucking asshole jew and you're a bunch of retards for literally worshipping him.
I want to cuddle him.
>>144325816
Don't make me sad again
I promised Moot I wouldn't cry anymore

The Oculus Rift being bought by Facebook
>>144325004
It was doomed the second they decided letting the users create their own subreddits was a good idea. Giving people an easy way to isolate themselves from the larger userbase whenever they find a point of contention just leads to stagnation and shitposting. Case in point: generals.
Taking in a bunch of /pol/ and /v/ users just accelerated the inevitable.
i heard moot mootingson died? is that true?
>>144323595
Wow, I thought you were dead.
It seems like yesterday he left us.
>>144316960
>Thanks faggot miss always
Perfect

Good riddance.
So when will 4chan finally close down? I have been waiting for it for ~10 years now, so that I can get on with my life.
>>144325875

>tfw can't post the goodbye message collage because it's too big
>>144324991

My heart fluttered a little
>>144326193
oh yes, whether he was a homosexual or a transexual. What was the answer?
>>144324991
Got two from moot, once eight years ago (although he quoted multiple people in one thread) and once when he did that QA panel just before leaving us.
I wonder if he misses us, even a little bit
>>144325850
Not the best loli, but the only quick one I could find in a ruch before he disappeared.
>>144326001
Catalogue and Generals destroyed 4chan.

Fucking seagate.
>>144326255

The fuck? It makes the site easier to navigate. I agree that generals are cancer, though.
>>144326579
This just confirms my statement even further.
>>144326232

No, those aren't the causes, those are the results. 4chan is just a victim of its own popularity.
Remember when m00t signed that nugget
Hiro, please post in this thread!
>There are people who didnt sit through his full 8 hour final Q&A
>>144326710
Don't rub it in anon. I learned my lesson.
>>144326733
Yes.
>>144326733
They have a long history of making shit. I know their 3 TB HDDs have horrible failure rate, but I don't know about the 4TB ones.
>>144324150
Would moot like re:zero? I bet he would.
>>144326797
That's what Jebus' synopsis was for.
>>144326255
The catalog is a good usability improvement. Usability improvements are just a double edged sword in that they also make the site more appealing to newfags. The catalog itself isn't the problem, it's the fact that people use it as a way of finding "their threads" to go hide in instead of casually browsing for something that catches their eye.
Generals are pure cancer, though. Just the idea that every thread needs to be based on a broad, singular topic is backwards.
>>144326557
>>144326602
moot was very against the idea of catalogs and fought against it.
He believed the randomness and sporadic nature of 4chan without a catalog was what made this site so great.
Catalogs obviously lead to generals. This site is becoming Leddit 2.0.
>>144326759
4chan isn't so bad yet.
Sure, it's not the same thing as back in 07, but it's still the only tolerable place online.
The only bastion of web 1.0 in a shit ocean of vapid commercialized and SJWed social media.
>>144326992
Been here since 07 still kinda feels the same more or less. Just more fags but you can't help that.
>>144326881
>tfw browsed for 6 years and have never hidden a thread
I see what you mean though
>>144326619
Kill yourself, faggot.
>>144326881
I blame Madoka threads for starting generals.
>>144327060
I feel like current Madoka threads are the logical end point of all generals. People literally ship tripfags together in them.
>>144327017
I feel like something broke in 2010-12, especially on /a/. I just doesn't feel the exact same.
Maybe it's just that the shows we talk about changed, and I don't like any of the new ones.
Or maybe it's nothing and I'm just getting old.
>>144327023
Same. I also don't get filtering words. How sensitive can you be?
>>144327101
It's the shows, there's nothing to really watch this season it's why I frequent every other board now.
>>144326869

With catalogues, you're not seeing the full OP and last posts. When you're only seeing the OP snippet, you're missing out on what's going on in the thread currently, which might be something you would have clicked on even if the OP wasn't.

2ch is not the secret club you think it is.
>>144326869
Does anyone even use /e/? Like, anyone at all? Why?
>>144327442
I'm kinda curious now, what board has the least traffic? I imagine it's /f/ or /wg/, but there could be something else.

>>144327334
These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real.
>>144327265

asukafags confirmed for walking trash
>>144326691
>/qa/ still Complaining About /pol/: The Board
Yes it is. "Delete /pol/" is even a meme now on this board. It's a mess, normalfags complaining about anime, s4s shitposting, bronies trying to abolish GR15. Every now and then Hiro shows up for an irrelevant post.
>>144327510
I think it's either /po/ or /i/
>>144327433
I wasn't talking about 2ch specifically. That site is sort of like 4chan in that it's not really worth browsing as a community.
The rest of the japanese internet lags a bit behind the rest of the world, however. This has a lot of downsides but the one positive thing about it is that the negative effects of over-centralization of internet communities hasn't affected them as much as it has for the rest of the internet
>>144327334
>and less friendly
It's the other way round. The internet is getting too friendly that now, if you try to form your own group, suddenly you're the bad guy who is trying to exclude others from your 'secret club'. Oh, and carrying about people's feelings is a bigger deal than it used to.
Basically, it now mirrors real life since social media is now the norm.
>>144327529
Are you saying that Rei is in hell and Asuka in heaven, which is why Reifags suicide while Asukafags don't, since they both want to be with their waifus? You'd be right if you are.
>this cancerous faggot posting shit thinking his opinion is relevant
