Hiro, the majority of /pol/ would like you to remove the filters, especially "cuck".
Can you respect the /pol/ community and remove the filters for us?
There are people here on /qa/ that hate /pol/ who want to turn 4chan into a liberal hugbox like Something Awful.
Please understand that /qa/ doesn't represent the majority of 4chan and that each board has a separate culture with separate users, using /qa/ to gauge what X board likes or dislikes is wrong.
All these votes were taken from /pol/ in different threads, so you know it represents the /pol/ community.
If you doubt the validity of the poll just post a thread on /pol/ and ask the community about the filters, you will see straight away that the vast majority of /pol/ users hate the filters.
It's mainly the "cuck" filter /pol/ has a problem with because it's commonly used in politics. For example:
http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/aug/13/kekservative-republicans-conservatives-jeb-bush
http://www.salon.com/2015/08/03/the_gop_crack_up_continues_the_raging_civil_war_over_the_disgusting_%E2%80%9Ckekservative%E2%80%9D_slur/
https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=kekservative
I can't even link to it because the URL gets changed thanks to the filters (change "kek" to "cuck").
This has happened before when I've tried to link to the Sydney Morning Herald, a popular Australian news site as well:
http://www.baka.com.au/
Can't you see how silly the filters are?
Please, Hiro. I don't know why you're doing this to /pol/, I suspect there are some mods that hate /pol/ and are misleading you, but I don't really know. Please fix it.
>>379749
You miss your hugbox?
>>379749
And I can probably make a poll to show people want to remove /pol/. Does that mean it isn't biased? No. Does it mean it should happen? No.
I hope the filters stay and maybe even get expanded to include the ways people are evading them.
I actually don't mind word filters when a word is used so much that it's stale. Makes people think of more creative, funnier words to get past the filter.
>>379761
Do you think filters should affect URLs?
At the very least they could make it so URLs aren't affected.
Another example of "cuck" being used in politics.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0fzldPsgvo&feature=youtu.be
not a /pol/ack but wordfilters are for cúcks tbĥ śmh faм
>>379749
I only want the word 'kek' to be uncensored as it's the only one that actually gets in the way of conversations.
>That double-spacing
Hey ho, back to reddit you go.
>>379749
>implying the /pol/ community deserves any respect
>>379807
If you don't like /pol/, don't go there. No reason to shit up another board simply because you don't like it.
>>379806
I should have made it a wall of text.
Sorry, anon.
>>379814
You shouldn't have posted it in the first place really
>>379810
I'll be sure to remember that when /pol/tards stop spreading their shit on other boards.
Plus, /pol/ doesn't really need a third party to shit it up. It does a perfect job of shitting up itself.
>>379814
Or you could've done this. Not every sentence requires a new line.

/pol/ doesn't represent every board and doesn't deserve special snowflake exceptions.
And if someone can't figure out that the link got filtered and manually unfilter it to follow, they weren't worth talking to anyway.
>>379749
This. Old filters were fine because they filtered shit like nigger and faggot which was never used in URL's but this is really having an affect.
>>379749
May I ask how you use the word?
>>380050
First.
As a way to kinda subtly take shots at opposing viewpoints and to shitpost.
>>380052
Let me read an example, please?
I'm not sure it's important to use the word.
And why the word are banned.
If we must obey political correctness,
we have to ban tons more words.
>>380055

Stop crying for a few broken links

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kekservative
>>380054
Just like conservatives call liberals, libtards, liberals will call conservatives c.uckservatives. It's all just a bit of fun that no one really cared about.
The main problem is that it's making links not work because it'll filter links with c.uck in it.
Also, people here don't want to obey political correctness. That's the reason why a lot of people come here instead of reddit.
>>380062
See, hiro, this is the problem.
If you remove the filter, links that people post will work unlike those ones.
>>380061
u r right.
http://bit.ly/1I68q2h
>>380064
I understand. why it should be removed.
Now I want to know the reason why it is here.
>>380067
No one really knows why it's here. It was added on Halloween, I assume as a joke.
>>380067
Because only shitposters use those words.
>>380070
>>380071
these guys don't know what they're talking about.
it was added on halloween along with the sm.htb.hfa.m filters, as a joke that never got taken away
>>380073
But unlike spooky scary skeleton, it and the other filters are kept for a reason.
>>380067
Please just remove them, Hiro. Please.
>>380074
spooky scary skeleton got taken down because it's got no context outside of halloween
if there is a reason it's unknown
baka desu senpai
>>380078
people just bypass it, you can't bypass for the links though
>>380050
"cuck" uses special unicode characters to avoid the filter.
>>380081
They're making an effort to shitpost at least. Now if we actually had mods.
>>380067
>Now I want to know the reason why it is here.
They were added on Halloween as a joke and they have never been removed since, they were funny at first but now they're just annoying.
>>380086
>they were funny at first but now they're just annoying.
I disagree, they're still hilarious.
The words being filtered were only ever used by shitposters and 4chan as a whole is much better now that they cannot be abused like they were. Period, full stop, end of discussion.
>>380067
Halloween joke that never went away.
Besides, there is no point on being politically correct on the politically incorrect board.
>>380080
Even if you like the filters, anon, it's not fair to implement them site-wide, each board has a different community, some boards hate the filters (/int/, /pol/, /mu/, /r9k/, etc.).
moot never did this except for that one time when reddit got filtered into 4chan.
>>380086
Nah, they're even funnier now with the asspained shitposters begging for their shitposting words to come back.
>>380079
baka desu senpai kek
smh tbh fam cuck
Filters are so pointless tbh.
>>380096
When they are removed I will respect your point of view when you are whining for them to be reinstated even though I disagree.
4chan is one big family, we should not be taking pleasure out of the suffering of other users.
>>380097
They are annoying when URLs get filtered.
Hiro pls. Even if you just remove them for /pol/ I'll be happy.
>>380079
馬鹿で候、先輩
>>380100
I don't consider shitposters 'family'.
>>380067
cück is a great word, now that it has hit mainstream politics, we need to be able to use it again.
>>380067
it has no reason to be here
the very fact that words are censored nulls the entire notion that 4chan has any semblance to free speech.
I like the filters
this c.uck meme is stupid as fuck
>>380114
>a joke word filter is an attack on free speech
you must be fucking joking senpai
>>380115
how is it not a literal attack on free speech if you're limited in what words you can use?
>>380114
>free speech
>>380067
The words 'fa m' and 'tb h' really don't add anything to the discussion and should therefore remain filtered, but the word 'c uck' is a word that is used frequently within actual discussion.
There's actually a video of someone on American Television using the term 'C uckservative':
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0fzldPsgvo
>>380116
it doesn't actually change the original message
kekservative can obviously be read as c.uckservative so long as you know about the filters... i don't see how it's an attack on free speech
>>380050
Cuck is a generic insult that can be added to pretty much anything, it's great.
For example:
Libcuck
Kekservative
Swedecuck
The word comes from "cuckold" which means "the husband of an adulteress, often regarded as an object of derision."
Kekservative is a meme that originated on 4chan and has become mainstream, so I don't really understand why you would want to hinder our memes.
It was commonly used on /pol/ and /tv/ but for some reason we're not allowed to post it anymore and we've never had an explanation why. I always assumed it was just a temporary joke for Halloween.
What's more annoying is the URLs are affected. If you must have the filters, I don't understand why you would, but if you must, can you make so the filters don't affect URLs?
>>380067
Personally I think its because it was gaining too much momentum in describing the belief of pro immigration as being a cultural kekhold - meaning you would prefer to watch foreigners come in and take dominance of your society and women than stand up for it.
Considering "kekservative" has just entered the mainstream, maybe it was an on target "concern" (depending on your political ideology)
Ntrservative? Ntrold? Moot is an ntr?
>>380131
Netorare is a genre so it's not really a good replacement.
Babies are crying they can't spam their favorite swear word
>>380114
You are a kek
>>380065
If you're keeping the filters can you at least give us an explanation why?
>>380067
Hiroshima moot, people who are complaining about word filters are straight up beta faggots.
As usual 4chan is acting like reddit and complaining based on feelings.
Why all the hate for /pol/ lads? We're fighting the good fight and everyone hates on us.
>>380144
beta faggots are the people like you who bring nothing to the table in the way of knowledge of conversation
>>380145
>Why all the hate for /pol/ lads?
because /pol/ has a major victim complex
>>380145
they dont know how bad it really is
>>380146
>complains I bring no knowledge to the discussion
>by making an ad hominem reply which adds nothing to the discussion
fuck off you kek
>>380145
It's just /qa/ that is hostile to /pol/ for some reason, I don't understand why.
I welcome Hiro to post on /pol/, I'm sure he will love it there when he settles in.
>>380147
no, we just recognize that political correctness has neutered any kind of honest discussion on the internet and it pisses us off that cuucks like you enforce it
>>380145
Because faggots like you give /pol/ a bad name by being deluded enough to think they're fighting for a cause. /pol/ is not serious business, stop crying about how a bunch of retards on an Oriental Erotica forum will stop WW3
>>380147
Take the red pill and see how far the sphincter of the left goes anon. It's enlightening when you see things without the wool pulled over your eyes. /pol/ is losing its victim complex in lieu of a combat complex, which is almost as gay but necessary.
>>380151
You're crying over the fact you can't shitpost with a word. Nobody actually uses kekold in its original context on /pol/.
I-Is he gone?
Just when I thought we were making progress.
>>380153
>Implying we want to stop WW3
Jesus is this the IQ of the rest of 4chan?
>>380156
>Nobody actually uses kekold in its original context on /pol/.
this to be honest family
>>380156
cuuck shitposting hasn't even gone down, so it doesnt work
its like saying banning guns lowers violent crime

>>380153
We don't want to stop WW3 we want to win WW3 anon.
>>380162
It has though.
>>380163
>pol
>tinfoil
thats x bud
>>380163
The tinfoil is a little offensive and inaccurate.
While the offending gives me a rise the inaccuracy is blasphemous.
>>380167
you've never been on /pol/ have you?
theres a trillion threads about cuuckoldry on there a day
if you want to get rid of shitposting, you have to ban aussies
>>380167
do you even browse /pol/?
>>380170
Those threads tend to get deleted. They're literally just porn dumps.
>>380162
so why are you complaining?
>>380170
>>380170
Poo in loos too.
>>380175
Halal.
Alright faggots leave now if you don't want to be red pilled.

Please remove the filters, 4chan is better than this.

>>380217
>All Hiro has to do is post a thread on /pol/ and he will see that the majority hate the filters.
I don't doubt it, which only serves to confirm that /pol/ is made entirely of dumb shits would would be better off served by another website.
What's the deal with the /pol/ hatred? We keep to ourselves more or less. We're our own little board with our own little culture.
I barely visit anywhere on 4chan save for /pol/
>>380207
what , you dont like the word c.uck ? its pretty fun to type .
>>380208
Mostly, yeah, but the other filters sometimes corrupt URLs and it can get annoying.
>>380222

>>380228
Tfw you're so deep into satire you laugh and get angry at the word trigger on 4chan.
I bet 8gag are shilling for Hiro to keep the filters because they think /pol/ will eventually get fed up and leave for 8gag.
I don't want to leave, 8gag. I like 4chan. I will never join that cripple's site.

We do not need protecting from shitposters, we're a big guy.
>>380218
There were still faggots playing hero even before 4chan developed a political identity and it was left leaning, nice attempt at reaching for an oldfag claim though.
But you're not complaining about this, you're considering the new text memes some sort of cancer that deserves to be filtered.
>>380246
UUUU
Just ban all australians from the internet and remove the flags and the filters.
>tfw I think Hiro is gone and he's never coming back

Everything about this post is wrong.
And maybe I want to be the one doing the crossdressing, except that's degeneracy in the eyes of God and Trumo.
>>380261
Not based enough to stick around. At least mootykinz engaged us.
Are you still here Hiro senpai?
off topic but i had sex with a prostitute recently and now i have welts on my nutsack but not my dick
they dont hurt but im worried
>>380257
Unless they're shitposting actual kuckold shit using the term kuck isn't shitposting.
>>380119
Thanks.
We have to get more free speech on 4chan than TV.
>>380280
Thanks Hiroyuki
>>380119
Family and To be honest were fine, it's just anti-meme fag community being faggots about the ever changing board culture on 4chan.

Thank you, Hiro.
Anti-/pol/ BTFO.
>>380278
And how often is actual kekolding discussed?
>>380280
I think everything should be unfiltered 2bh.
Lets make 4chan great again, Hiro.
>>380290
nice false flag try, cûck
>Hiro posts
>Only the "WORDFILTERS ARE EVIL, PLEASE REMOVE THEM" crowd responds to him
Ugh.
>>380280
Don't listen to these fucking idiots on this board Hiro. They just want to spam and abuse these useless phrases again which do not add anything to discussion. In fact you shouldn't listen to a thing on /qa/ because this place is full of false-flaggers. Keep the filters. Do you not know the English term "false flag"? Look it up. That's this board.
There is damn good reason those filters were put in place to start with, because all those words were being abused without context or reason non stop.
>>380287
>>380288
Using the term kuck is different from posting kuck porn and talking about the "benefits" of being a kuck or something.
Kuck is an insult now, the only people who can't stand it are the implying implications kind of faggot who is contrarian for the sake of it
it's a constant state of "pls stop saying that new word I hate memes".
>>380290
So if Hiro checks your post history he will be able to see you're from /pol/?
>>380293
It is about free speech, /pol/ doesn't need to be protected from shitposters, it's always been this way.
Cuck was a precious meme of ours and someone took it away without Hiro's permission.
>>380303
It isn't a fucking meme, it's just a word. People used it purely as an insult even out of context and just forced it onto everything. You make it lose all meaning that way, defeating the purpose of its existence.
>>380067
Before you came along we used to call moot a kuck since he was travelling around with and treating a girl as his gf but she had a superior male a bf. We were making fun of moot because he was a weak leader. He could not take it.
Now that we have superior Hiro there is no reason for that word filter.

>>380306
Memes can be words too, anon.

That is the end result of all memes, they all die naturally and new memes are born.
That is the circle of memes.
Have filters been removed yet?

>>380301
Shut up, you cock gobbling faggot
>>380280
I beg you to remove filters entirely. It serves absolutely no purpose and people just find alternate ways to use the same word.
Please keep 4chan a place of free speech. Anonymity and the ability to express oneself is what makes this site at times great.
>>380314
If you are honestly /pol/ please explain why you like filters.
Wanting security over freedom was never a /pol/ trait I remember.

Why is this place still being referenced? It's just another 7chan.
If I recall, the place really pissed off SA and goons are all over this shithole as they are known to flood forums to get moderator positions and change websites.
So really, why should Hiro listen to goons?
>>380319
The filters do not affect free speech. It's still clear what you said, it just comes out differently when posted. You just cry because mods chastised you for talking like a fucking retard and not listening when everyone told you over and over to stop typing like a 12 year old from twitter.
Actual censorship of free speech would have been to block the posts containing those words from being posted at all.
>>380278
100% shitposting. The c.uck spam got out of hand from KoP and the wheelchair faggot outright spamming and advertising the other chan RIGHT when /v/ got the final closing of GG talk. Literally every other post was c.uck this, c.uck that.
>>380280
Keep the filters. People can find ways to post broken links.
What really you should remove are flags and ids. They serve no purpose on an anonymous website. It gives forced identity to every poster much like your normal internet. And this lowers the board quality into normal internet levels too. Give it a thought. Those were put on as a joke/punishment by moot. He forgot to remove them before leaving, that's it.
>tfw it's probably hard for Hiro to work out what the community want due to all the shills
Ignore the community for a second, Hiro.
What do you want 4chan to be?
Do you want us to have more freespeech than TV or should we filter every single problematic word a vocal minority complain about?
>>380324
Eat a bowl of baby dicks
>>380335
>you should remove are flags and ids. They serve no purpose on an anonymous website.
Pass.
>>380332
What is wrong with using a shortened "to be honest"? How is that in any way shitposting? Its one of the most commonly used text phrases in the UK
>>380344
Yeah, /brit/ on /int/ use it a lot.
They've been using "tbqh" instead since the filters.
>>380334
Stop bringing up that website, it shows that you're not fucking from here because nobody on here has cared about that place for half a year now.
>Kuck is a conspiracy, it's still late 2014 muh GG war I can't handle the meming.
You're not even from here are you?
The filter is stupid and goes against essentially the basis of 4chan and why most people go on this site.
Why should some offended retard have the power to decide what words someone can use and what not?
Why are people told what they can say? and the words they can use?
"Kek" is a word used to describe somebody who is manipulated in thought or in other forms (hard to explain). This word is excellent for its meaning and should not be removed.
Freedom of speech is essential and even if a word offends someone, part of free speech is the ability to say whatever the fuck you want. If we started filtering words in real-life it would be a huge outrage, why is it reasonable here?
The word will be expressed anyways, in this case ruining the meaning of another.
If something offends somebody, tought shit. Since when has 4chan ever cared if some kek is offended? I have no respect for the idiot that did this.
Remove the filter Hiro
>>380336
>muh free speech
It's just shitposting. You also can't post ponies outside of /mlp/, are you up in arms that that infringes on your free speech too? I bet you didn't even care because that didn't affect you (probably).
4chan needs rules and constraints on it to keep user base problems from getting out of hand. Ponies got out of hand, so did the kek and desu/baka spam. Get the fucking message that that shit is for faggots; I don't know how it could be spelled out any more clearly.
>>380352

Free speech as long as it's on topic is what I'd like 4chan to be about and that's what I feel 4chan used to be (even though it's was never officially said).
>>380349
>informed of where it started, which was when another chan was spamming both advertisements and propaganda about moot, ENDLESSLY
>this is somehow a conspiracy and i'm not from here
>>380346
I know the whole story. That ignores kucks humble beginnings as an insult to the Angry Videogame Nerd.
Not sure why you posted that though.
>>380352
If I was over there why would I care about what is happening over here? They're convinced their shithole is better than our shithole and have no reason to be here other than half assed attempts at increasing their traffic.
It seems like you're trying to attribute and entire crossboard meme to a single board as if every user was somehow one of "them" and we have to stop "them".
>>380336
The filters aren't stopping free speech, jesus christ anon. Word filters are not new. They've been around forever.
>>380358
either way. who gives a shit? trap threads are pure shit post and that shit is still going
Well if we're keeping the filters can we at least remove flags?
>>380319
100% agree, anyone who disagrees is an armchair tyrant who thinks that they should be able to decide how everyone else in the world expresses themselves
>>380364
>Trying to apply a meme to some sort of vigilant smear campaign against a guy who isn't even owner of the website anymore.
>Not a tin-foil conspiracy.
The cross-chan war only exists in the minds of retards
>>380366
8ch users are 4chan users and ex-4chan users, we should be welcoming them back not trying to alienate them with the us vs them mentality.
4chan should be the only chan. I hate that our communities are divided, I blame moot for that. I honestly believe Hiro can make 4chan great again.
>>380369
The current filters are new, they've been around since Halloween.
And we've never had filters outside of /b/ except for "reddit" being filtered into "4chan" and special occasions that were only temporary.
>>380280
thank you hiro
>>380379
>c.uck use 100x fold the day gg was banned
>same day that 5+ infographics are SPAMMED OUT THE ASS about moot being a "c.uck" in /pol/ and likely other boards
>this is irrelevant because moot isn't here anymore
>>380379
I agree. It's funny how both sides stir up rhetoric to believe in.
Pic related, my stance on the matter.
why's there so many threads on /pol/ on here?
>>380363
Word filters were used multiple times many years ago. It doesn't actually affect anything because you still know what the original words were.
"Free speech", assuming you mean the way it's applied in the U.S, does not mean "it's my right to be an asshole to everyone, and my right to abuse them is more important than their right to talk back or shut me up", which is essentially what the anti-filter people are saying.
If go outside and shout nonsense and swear words at random people on the street, the cops will come and warn that you're disturbing the peace if not arrest you if you keep it up. Do it to an individual person nonstop and you'll get booked for abuse/harassment.
He's not going to remove the filters, is he?
>>380396
Nigger, my rights don't end where your feelings begin.
You can bitch about it all you want, it's not changing. And it's people like you who get triggered by filtered words in the first place.
>>380395
Go make some drawthreads faggot
>>380399
You need to go back.
>>380399
Correct. People are dumb and immediately misinterpreted his post to suit their needs.
>>380395
Because /pol/ is kewl
>>380378
Care to post the source that proves that all True 4channers™ are against and despise the kuck meme while almost all users who like it are 8gaggers™?
>>380386
>Ben Garrison complains about getting banned from 4chan
>Eight admin laughs
you posted this because?
>>380388
Damn straight it's irrelevant.
You're seriously suggesting that because a meme flared up out of a reaction to moots action that a special kind of split occurred on here between "you" and "them" where all true users of this place stood their ground and everyone that left was the sole user and promoter of a fucking meme, in which you still believe that divide holds true thus causing anyone to use said meme to be a foreigner?
Like I said, the board war only exists in the minds of total fucking retard. A reddit accusation has more merit than yours.
>>380395
While Hiro's here I wish he would ban the /d/ idiot that keeps creating shit threads and delete all the threads.
>>380404
When he said we should have more free speech than TV I assumed he was going to remove the filters. I just want my precious cuck meme back.
>>380393
Reddit tier sarcasm m8, there is no "sides" anymore. I haven't seen eight mentioned on any board other than here in a very long time. Officially no one cares anymore.
>>380391
>Not including 7chan
new
>>380415
>mention 4chan on 8 chan
>everyone talks shit
>mention 8 chan on 4chan
>everyone talks shit
There's definitely sides, famalam.
>>380393
>>380401
It's not about my feelings, I don't give much of a shit about the filtered words personally, but could see that they were being abused to hell, which is a different matter entirely. Don't even pretend that they weren't being abused.
Like was said earlier ponies got put away in /mlp/, why was that? The fans abused the topic. The same thing applies to the filtered shit words.
>>380418
all chans have historically believed they are better, even 420.
You miss the point, there isn't a board war anymore. Even super shitpost zones like /v/ mention 8.
They'll go for GG but they won't bring eight up.
So have we had a definite yes, no, or maybe from Hiro on the removal of the filters yet?
>>380344
Global rule 6, retard.
>>380425
mlp =/= words
Now imagine if every nigger behavior in this site was suddenly called out for, would you filter the word nigger too, just because? Fuck off.
>>380407
>"you" and "them"
I don't care, anon. You are dropping tons of implications that aren't there. All I'm saying is that is where it escalated from and it's way overused. I don't give a fuck whether it's filtered. The end. Get another meme to beat to death.
>>380344
What is wrong with staying on facebook? Why do you come here?
>>380428
I don't think Hiro understands this very well because he doesn't grasp the nuances of English, or the history of why those words became problems this year.
All he sees is some shill saying it's related to free speech when really it isn't, and just kind of knee-jerk siding with him without understanding the shilling. What do they call it in Japanese? Sutema?

It's cancer and mods should do their fucking job banning anyone who uses such terms.
Every decent board knows this.
>>380435
Because desu hasn't had 11 years of being beaten to death
>>380437
Well I think they should be removed because filters have never really been a thing outside of /b/.
No, fuck you. Kekposting has ruined 4chan, as have all of the desu senpai bullshit
>>380442
Maybe they are enlightening you on your faggotry, anon. Take a hint.
>>380280
How can I acquire a hot mexican wife, Emperor Hiroyuki?
>>380433
False equivalency, fucking faggot. The word nigger is in fact a far more fiery and abusive word than the filtered words and basically does more damage to 4chan's image than any of the filtered words ten times over, yet, this word was left alone.
Did that entirely fly over your head as to why? It's because "nigger" wasn't getting spammed everywhere at random things/people that has little or nothing to do with the prior usage of the word. If that started to happen, maybe something would have been done about it. But it hasn't, so it didn't.
>>380445
Memes will die eventually if you let them.
It happened to trollface, lolcats, rick roll, etc. and it is now happening to Pepe.
>>380348
And /brit/ is the worst general on /int/.
>>380441
>banning for mfw
fucking newfags these days
rule 3 is to prevent l33t and IM tier grammar which was a real popular thing in 2003. moot never cared about meme abbreviations like tfw.
rule 6 is majority rules, but of course you'd bring it up because rule 6 is always the rule self righteous fags invoke. I bet you think you're a cultural expert of 4chan right? Care to post your meme degree?
>>380407
>>Ben Garrison complains about getting banned from 4chan
>>Eight admin laughs
>you posted this because?
So you really are a refugee trying to get aunt Hiro to open the gates.
>>380426
you see wayyyyy less shit posting on 420 then here.
By that measure 420 has always been objectively better
>>380452
Pepe is a lot more persistent though, annoyingly. And it will be replaced by something a lot worse. You want proof? Take a look at this.

>>380458
nice rickroll faggot. that's sarcasm btw
>>380452
Yeah, but in all of those cases, those originated on 4chan and died after they were beaten to death by they general public.
In this case, we have something that was beaten to death by the general public, and has now invaded 4chan.
I'm going to sleep. I hope when I wake up I can post cuck again without having to use magic to bypass the filters.
>>380461
Cuck as an insult become popular on 4chan, you can't deny that, anon.
>>380450
>uses false equivalency
>bitches about my false equivalency
I'm done.
>>380447
>implying desu wasn't fun when it started out
>implying kuck lasted nearly as long as desu
>implying they weren't filtered into weeb shit for the sake of weebs.
>>380456
Please explain how you've came to that conclusion.
>>380457
Slow posting has the downside of possibly not getting a response for hours. It becomes more a forum than a glorified chat room.
>>380462
I hope you'll never wake up, shitposter.
>>380463
Mostly because people started to use it thinking/hoping it hurt moot's feelings. Does Hiro even know this? That it started as an anti-moot thing?
To be anti-moot is anti-4chan really, no wonder 8ch shills and edgy faggots on neo-/q/ want to try to convince people to let them say it again.
>>380465
>weeb shit
>Please explain how you've came to that conclusion.
These are the refugees storming the gates, everyone. They want to destroy our culture and replace it with their own.
>>380471
>Mostly because people started to use it thinking/hoping it hurt moot's feelings.
That's just silly, anon.
moot doesn't have feelings.
Hiro, you realized a whole bunch of /pol/ niggers tricked you into using their meme word. IT HAS NO USE other than shitpost. It's even worse than t͏bh or f
>>380475
>They have this thread linked on their board and all of the opinions you are receiving are from the
Where? And even if this is true. It proves my point, /pol/ hates filters.
>>380473
>That's just silly, anon.
>moot doesn't have feelings.
What if I told you, Moot has been Hiroyuki this entire time? That this was a giant ruse the entire time?
>>380476
>/pol/ hates filters
It was only bad when it was every other word, and where do you get off talking for everyone else? Cut that shit out.
>>380472
you still haven't backed your claim.
How about I let you in on a secret, I have never been on that other place for more than a few hours when it first came out. I know very little of it's culture other than it has a shitty commie /pol/, it's owned by a deformed midget and it thinks it's better than 4chan.
Therefore, your screencap means nothing to me.
>>380485
>i-i had second thoughts... pls, pls let me back in guys!
