I'm just curious and looking for fun stories. I know I've been here since at least before 2007, maybe earlier. I remember they got rid of the board a few times, and had another board for it.
Also know that the term redpill has been around less than half the time I've been here. I remember one time in particular when a guy was adamant that I was a shill because I told him the board was once overwhelmingly libertarian and supported ron paul (2008, not so much 2012). It has always had its anti-jew bent, however.
Anyone else have any memories they'd like to share?
Someone else has to have been on this board for a while...

I've been coming here daily since the Great Jamboree Happening.
>>69216124
since 2011 4chan since 2008
recently got banned for posting uncensored pic related..
Feels good to be back, reading all the dumb shit without being able to respond makes you realize just how many fucktards infect this place!
fuck you
>>69216124
since /new/ started
I miss the robot ;_;
>>69217547
Was that the news board that wasn't supposed to focus on /pol/ being pol and it didn't work. It was a long time ago and my memory is foggy over it.
>/pol/
>2007
>>69217547
Here since /new/. Was a good place til the /b/tards came here with the oh so edgy nutzy maymays that attracted the stormfags after which everything went to shite...
since 2011, I wish there'd be more paul memes today but I think the shilling has declined on the large scale.
Only problem left is strayla
My friend just linked me this thread from r/sanders so I guess this is my first day
>>69217695
pol or a form of it was definitely around then. Like I said, I remember the first time Paul ran and we all went nuts over him.
>>69216124
around 2-3 years. Before i mostly scrolled /b/ but that place is dead. People never actually discuss things and same threads all week long. Tried /pol/ and enjoyed it. At least people don't post traps or fucking bananas everywhere here.
On 4chan since 2007, but wound up here during the Zimmerman trial and never looked back.
>>69216124
I came here during the Zimmerman trial. I feel like that was truly the best time for /pol/, although it might just be because I was a newfag back then.
>>69217840
welcome to /pol/
Our Emperor needs your help!
Three weeks.
Been on /b/ and /v/ since 2008 and /p/ and /g/ since 2010.
For some reason, I feel like I belong here };^)
>>69217657
/new/ WAS /pol/, it went away but then it came back and was turned into /pol/ in a second.
>>69218301
Same story for me anon.
4chan since 2008, /pol/ off and on since 2012.
A long,long time..
I've seen the shills shilling, the Jews jewing,the nigs nigging.
I've seen the DESIGNATED meme take off in front of my own eyes.
I remember when the mudshits weren't as much of a threat to civilisation by /pol/
If you were honest and not just the usual thread slider, you would know that you are asking questions, you could easily find the answer yourself.
But that's the problem with nine faggers and robots, not just that looking at a whoise is hacking for your people, you aren't even able to kikesearch and read faqs.
The other option is, you are the usual fame nigger, trying to find material for his kikebook friends.
In either cases, you should lurk more or do everyone a favor and be a hero, I suggest by rope.
Libertarian and Austrian Economist here. Been here since 2010.
About 7 years i guess
2013
Came after Ron Paul 2012 and just before Zimmerman.
I came on here every now and then when it was /new/, but I didn't really make this one of my main boards until maybe 2012 or 2013.

>>69216124
several months on 4chan, 1 month on /pol/
will never leave this place. pretty nice to have a place where they hate sjw's and leftish idiots.
/pol/ also isn't full of bs like #notallmuslims
/pol/ is the last place on the internet that doesn't embrace the entire gay faggots.
all in all, this place isn't as bad as I thought it would be. I kinda like it.
>>69219401
I have literally been asking for fun stories people remember and that could be shared with people that have been here for a while... I thought it would be fun. Don't know what you're on about.
When /new/ got deleted we went to /int/. Fuck those were the days.
>>69218408
No, those were legit good times. A little before that the board became almost completely fascist, and before that it was libertarian. Pol is still good, but not quite like it used to be. It definitely has not fallen as badly as /b/ in comparison imo
2012 for 4chan, 2013 for /pol/.
I crossboard a lot, sometimes I don't come here for months.
>>69219803
People like you are doing the work for the paid shills. If you like storytime, you are on the wrong board.
Even if it sounds arrogant, before the "red pill me on x", "what is /pol/s opinion on" kidys came here, we had something called political discusions, know thanks to fags like you it has become a abomination of what is was, but maybe asking for other peoples opinion instead of thinking for yourself and reading books is what politics is in a world were people like sanders and trump have people following them.
My opinion on your thread stays, kill yourself.
>>69220157
jesus you're a faggot. I've contributed a lot to this board over the years, and taking time to ask people their memories of the board is not asking people to form opinions for me.
>>69220157
Mate /new/, /int/ and /pol/ have always been shit. They're all the same just different eras and different current events. I've been on here since fucking 06 at least.
>>69219888
Trips of truth. /int/ bants were not terrible.
>>69217695
?
I've been on 4chan since 95
>>69220243
>contributed a lot
fame nigger on an anonymous kazakh satanist candle forum.
Now kek yourself.
Been here since /new/. Come here sporadically since /pol/ is /b/ with politics and I find it to be quite shit.
2009 or so.
I've seen /new/ get deleted a few times before it got made into /pol/
>>69220285
Shitposting was always a thing, but it was never so bad as it is now, even the SRS had more to say and was sometimes funny.
>>69216124
I've been here since about summertime, when Trump started his campaign. and browsing now and again before that. I'm fucking addicted now.
Its ruined me, I have no job or sex life.

More traffic more shit posts. The threads move so fast, the boards so fast. Of course there will be more shitposts.
>>69220591
Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever be able to leave. But I thought the same thing about /b/ before it became what it currently is and rarely visit anymore. There is hope.
2011ish. Was /b/tard before that since 2007
>>69217840
Welcome aboard!
Sanders is a walking logical fallacy, want me to teach Austrian economics?
>>69219795
this belgbro, been here for a longer time than you though
Been on /pol/ since 2013
Been on /b/ since... well at least some time before the GIGA PUDDING thing.
>>69220929
Fuck off commi
>>69220638
If the new friends would stay in a few shit post threads it would be o.k, but living in lib land has given those fucktards the impression, that there opinion deserves own threads or that this is a sole bait board were no one has actually to say something.
Reason why Iam mostly on the dark infinity places now, it's slow, but at least it's still possible to have insightful convos.
Been on 4chan since 2007, on /pol/ since 2011 during the the republican primaries.
It's been getting worse year after year. The influx of newfags after Zimmerman and /pol/harbor accelerated this decline into neo/pol/.
>>69221004
What appears to be the problem my kangaroo friend?
>>69220285
>Mate /new/, /int/ and /pol/ have always been shit.
it was fun for a time.
now it just feels like the same shit over and over again.
at least 20% of the posts on /pol/ are just the same reddit tier flag humor repeated.
>>69221318
Stop taking over my country with your shitty corporatism tactics yellow man.
>>69221289
you don't enjoy r9k, int and ebin trull culture.
>>69221358
I agree, but I still think b is the worst. That used to be an awesome board. Now it is almost nothing except repost after repost. A bot could make the threads, even the titles are the same. Anything interesting gets shut down. The last time I posted there I made a thread of rare pics from the 90s and I got banned.
I miss flower girl
06 for the chan. /b/ until the edge wore off and I relied how garbage it was. Random boards like /v/ /s/ /a/ (sue me fgts) and /diy/ along the way after.
Only entered /pol/ after Trump and haven't looked back. Some of you are typical btard faggots, but some of you are doing godswork and red pilling those of us with half a brain. Wish I had payed atention when /new/ was still a thing. Sounds like fun.
>>69218301
Same. I got tired of sifting through all the penis to find the good bantz and maymays.
>Pol
>not /pol/
Cant be from 2007
AFAIK /new/ did not exist until 2009 or 2010 but i was new back then so someone correct me if im wrong
Posting from mobileis a hassle godamn
Seriously doubt OP story
>>69223806
It might not have been called /pol/. Does nobody really still visit here from the time this board was all in on paul in 08'?
Late 2011, just in time for the Trayboon happening, it was glorious
>>69223964
/pol/'s earliest predecessor was /new/
/new/ was created in 2010 according to http://tanasinn.info/wiki/Complete_History_of_4chan#2010
Moreover you misspelled /pol/ as Pol. 4chan users used to be extremely autistic about this kind of thing.
Your oldfag background is questionable
Your ba
>>69224823
Doesn't really matter. just wanted to get a convo going with some of the old people here for the memories. If it makes any difference, I was an impressionable junior in college then and became a huge paul fan because of this place. Maybe it wasn't called /pol/, I don't know. But 4chan had a huge boner for the guy in that time period. Worrying about if I called it /pol/ or pol is silly though.
>>69219795
>>69220898
Belgian meetup when?
>>69216124
I just arrived here and it looks as though autism is quite prevalent. Is this correct? Is it a requirement for posting here?
>>69216124
since August 2015
>inb4 newfag
>>69226156
Lurk moar and you may get autistic superpowers as well
>>69224823
Surely /pol/ users couldn't be described as autistic??
>>69225361
>>69225361
Massive correction: /pol/'s earliest ancestor was /n/, not /new/. My mistake. Sorry
/n/-News existed in 2006
That is probably the board that you were talking about.
>>69226433
Same as this guy.
>>69226433
The chaos of /pol/ harbor made me visit often and eventually stay, as ironic as it may seem
i've been on 4chan since '07
i'm only 20. this website raised me.
death is preferable
>>69216124
was on /b/ during the early days (2005 aproxx)
Bounced around boards for years, stopped coming here for a while. Never really visited /new/ much when it existed so I cant claim proper oldfaggotry when it comes to /pol/
Also /pol/ is still pretty libertarian tbqhwy
Minarchist rhetoric is still very strong at least
The current anti-libertarian narrative is mostly just ex- Paulfags being salty about the failure of the Pauls
>>69229022
Pretty accurate because the media completely ignored Paul and he didn't have the guts to really call them out on it. He should have gone straight savage but didn't. He's too much of a kindly old man. I miss paulposting senpai ;_; barely anyone uses his reaction images anymore
>>69216124
I've been on since 08, obviously not through pol.
Cant really remember much tho.
>>69229704
>the year is 2018
>president hillary makes gay marriage mandatory
>thousands of trump memes still floating around
>disallusioned trumpfags posting anti nationalist sentiments
>>69229022
I don't think its that as much as the authoritarian left has made us desperate.
We ultimately still believe in freedom, just that it needs to be firmly protected
>>69228167
'05. 21. No one should have to be introduced to 4chan during puberty. No one.
i'm 61 and i have been here 3 months. i am an old fag in at least one respect.
