Why don't we return to the 2003 layout?

I know there's ways to change the current layout but I literally want it to be 100% like the 2003 one.

Because there are children who were born when that screenshot was taken who are about to start highschool this fall.

They didn't grew up on this site, so oldfags like less then 20% in 4chan can feel nostalgia while everyone else is freaking out. Then again, you must really be a newfag if you still go to the front page.
>>
>>525676
I think oldfags who around from the golden age, 2007 and earlier, number fewer than 5%. Ancientfags from 2003 probably are less than 1%. There's a lot of people who pretend to be oldfags though because of encyclopedia dramatica, but most of 4chans current userbase most likely comes from Reddit, Tumblr, Facebook, etc, given how familiar most users seem to be with those websites.
>>
What kind of site was early 4chan exactly? Was it a pedo site, just how much illegal stuff was posted daily?
It's a bit frightening when you realize that many of the oldfags might be actual pedos.
>>
>>525728
If you consider /l/ pedo, then yes it was pedo. If you're thinking it was an underground website to trade CP, no it wasn't that, people just posted CP because of the shock value and the fact that it was wrong, just like edgy racism, gore and goatse.

I learned about reddit a year ago because /pol/ seemed to bitch about it, it's fun to accuse them that they're from there. Gaia and newgrounds became irrelevant now, and tumblr because of the raid in 2014 and 9gag before that because of another raid.

>>525625
You fuck head that's 13 years old at most
>>
>>525683
There used to be some amount of oldfags in /qa/, they all left because you /q/fags took over
>>
>>525683
They're still around, just on various of the smaller textboards and imageboards instead of on here. 0037 is still around and active on world2ch and so is tokiko. Meltingwax is still fairly active on IRC last time I checked and I know he occasionally posts on textboards.

Shii/ Avery Morrow doesn't post on anonymous boards anymore but he still uses IRC under a different name (not sure if he still does, I just remember some guy on w2ch mentioning it a while back).
>>
>>525822
You weren't lurking 4chan as an underage b& grandpa newfag?
>>
>>525822
I know a guy who was seven when he joined. What's your point?
>>
>>525827
Can you really count that as being on 4chan though?
>>
>>525830
Honestly, I feel like the textboards and the small weeb imageboards that split off from 4chan are closer in culture to the original 4chan than the current 4chan is.

I'm just glad that I still have a way to insult tokiko.
>>
>>525835
>split off from 4chan are closer in culture to the original 4chan
Yes, but they're traitors that abandoned their home and left it to rot and decay and be taken over by faggots. Then again so was moot. He kept making things worse, then just threw in the towel and fucked off leaving 4chan a mess.

>>525827
>>525835
Sounds to me like you just enjoy circle-jerking with a bunch of tripfags. That's something we can do without on this site.
>>
>>525845
I can tell you must've got here first after 2006.
>>
>>525847
Yes, and I feel that 4chan keeps getting better every year. Not even kidding.

Holy fuck, how did he cover his tracks from the mods?

There are 16 year old shitheads on 4chan who are retarded enough to admit they're underage but that guy must've been smart.

The new generation is stupid, and you're one of them. It's as simple as that.

Also the fap value.
It's porn for a reason.
