>Why didn't I notice that it was created?
because you were on reddit and hadn't even heard of 4chan then

It's a hidden board :^)
Like /z/

So it was never announced? How did people find out about it then?

>>365197
No, it was announced.

/q/ was announced and publicly listed, and hosted multiple Q&A sessions that were advertised with site - wide announcements, so yes, I guess you just weren't paying attention.

Hmm, maybe I'm getting senile. I browse 4chan all day long, so I should have noticed.

Was it announced together with any other boards? I remember that /mlp/ and vp was created in 2012.

>>365215
My memory is obviously not perfect.

>>365223
Stop smoking so much pot. The other posters are right, /q/ was linked to in the board list *and* several news posts.

It's kind of obvious you weren't here in 2012.

>>365298
I was here, but my brain must have been somewhere else.
(I clearly remember when moot created /r9k/ and /jp/ in 2008)

When I think about it I might have some vague memory that a "moot q&a" was announced some years ago.
