4chan has investors?

>>995549
Surprises me.

Yup. moot sold 4chan to jews.

There's entirely too much ink being spilled over this site nowadays.

it's for some shit called "canvas" at canv.as. what indeed.

If this is true then moot is the biggest troll there was.

working on a new project to reimagine what an image board should be today using the current technologies available.

>>995584
>implying personal gain is trolling

I wish people would learn what trolling is, its annoying when people use it out of intended use.

This site is way too big for moot to have been sitting on his hands not thinking about how he is going to be rich as fucking Zuckerberg. I bet he has a shitload of ideas up his sleeve. He's smart because he's been taking his time and keeping his mouth shut.

>Jobs
>We're looking for talented developers based in New York City. Interested? Please tell us a bit about yourself and link to a resume/CV.

>Desired skills: HTML5/CSS/JavaScript, PHP/Python, MySQL/MongoDB. A strong interest in community sites is a must.

>MongoDB
>MongoDB is designed for problems without heavy transactional requirements that aren't easily solved by traditional RDBMSs, including problems that require databases to span many servers.
lol wut?

>>995597
>implying those investors will actually see a return

I wish people would learn what trolling is, its annoying when people use it out of intended use.

>>995566
Ah come on now you are exaggerating, only one of them is a Jew and he only gets money for Canv.aids or whatever the fuck his new project is named.

>>995607
Sounds like some DDoS proofing to me

>>995613
The possibilities for an *anonymous* site with this much traffic and big brains and money behind it are astounding. Now that he has investors, I can't see how him and his pals don't have a gold gusher in the works. I also bet that he is going to end up with worse problems than Kimo.

>>995631
>implying you read the article but didnt
>if you did read the article you would realize the investors are for a new site and no 4chan

Why are people so fucking retarded.

>>995631
>worse problems than Kimo
>STOP SP4MMING THE BEST AND MOST ORIGINAL BOARD ON THE NET CANV.AS
oh god no

>>995636
No, but you can bet it's going to based on premises gleaned from the experience here and something that hasn't been done before, you dumb cunt.

>working on a new project to reimagine what an image board should be today using the current technologies available

>a reimagination of what an imageboard should be with current technology

Is moot still going to pay attention to 4chan?

I cannot imagine this place with out him. :(

>>995644
lol, seriously, would you feel goods about some obviously psychotic pedophile gunning for you all the time?

>>995665
I bet this new thing will end replacing or merging here or some shit along those kind of lines if it's so good. That would be my guess, but what do I know.

>>995665
haha yeah what would do withou- fuck you.

>>995659
<implying the new site is 4chan

>>995682
This is me. I have been here since early '04. ;~;

>>995679
I doubt that he wants the cumguzzling scum from /b/ on his new website.

Canv.as shall become the new Facebook.

Check this out, he's attending here. "Digital Crowds Into Dollars"

>>995706
fuck, i forgot the link

http://disrupt.techcrunch.com/agenda/

I for one welcome 4chan 3.0

>>995670
Snacks was the obvious pedophile, but Moot wasn't exactly that.

>>995659
I dont think we are going to be anonymous on that site. You cant have targeted google ads without logins or such. And obviously this new site is going to have to make money some how.

>canv.as
>as
>.as is the Internet country code for American Samoa.
wot

>>995719
It means nothing. It just fits.

>>995706
>Dollars
Awww Moot is still a huge weaboo, he watched Durarara and was fascinated by the DOLLARS gang and now tries to create a reallife version of it.

fags thought moot didn't have backers? I wouldn't be surprised if he was a CIA man too - storing posts and login IPs....

more like canv.ass. amirite guise?

>>995717
I bet you any money it will be anonymous. That's what his whole speech was about at that big conference with Bill Gates and those fags a couple of months ago. The value and importance of anonymity, and now I bet he's got a kick ass business model to combine with it.

>>995725

>>995719

>>995724
He posted a thread on /r9k/ a few weeks ago, in it he said that he had been contacted by just about every alphabet agency you could think of so who knows what's going on. But I bet an outfit like the CIA or NSA wouldn't even need his help or compliance to be able to crack all the traffic ID and what not with their big sooper computers and electronic sniffer tech.

>>995719
Kinda weird. Maybe he's expecting legally mandatory identification post on the internet sometime soon and saw that Samoa would be doing no such thing so he put the servers there. Anonymous posting is getting rarer all the time.

I saw a good theory on /v/, it's basically going to be something like Something Awful and pre 2006 4chan with lots of nice Java features.
Entry fee and heavy moderation will insure that not every underaged shitposter will visit the site, while anonymity and the (first) low amount of user will recreate the "secret club" feeling of pre 2006 4chan(most consider this as the golden age of 4chan, after the habo hotel raids and Tom Green 4chan went down, FAST)

>>995716
moot was the non-obvious pedophile?

>Entry fee and heavy moderation will insure that not every underaged shitposter will visit the site, while anonymity and the (first) low amount of user will recreate the "secret club" feeling

I suppose it's possible, but doesn't sound like it would be wildly popular.

>>995795
We never saw him as one, really. :/

>>995799
So we can go back and pretend we're like Fight Club again? YAAAAAAAY...

>>995786
So he's going to create a pedo site for disenfranchised white bourgeois 18-28 year old males with deep personality disorders but an intellectual capacity hidden behind a continuous situationalist detournement focused on tits and niggers, AGAIN?

Stop going back to your own vomit moot.

>>995800
No, we saw him as the little girl / mexican.

>>995818
lol.

>>995814
it's only a theory

>>995799
>People will/can post all their personal information and photos on their accounts, other people will/can then view and rate them, add them as friends or just masturbate to some pictures.
Lots of other stupid shit got popular, I wouldn't be too surprised if this gets a huge userbase.

>>995814
>A détournement is a variation on a previous media work, in which the newly created one has a meaning that is antagonist to the original. The original media work that is détourned must be somewhat familiar to the target audience, so that it can appreciate the opposition of the new message

How the fuck did you come up with that?

>>995825
Yeah, but to PAY? I kinda doubt it.

>>995806
That was after 2006

>>995829
Yeah but if even 1% of the 4chan userbase would pay the entry fee(5-10$), he'd make millions.

>>995830
No, it was before the raids (2005) and we were suppose to use rules 1 and 2 at all times during the raids so the site wouldn't get into trouble or be in the news or whatever else could possibly happen.

>>995799
Somethingawful turned out to be pretty popular, despite having to pay to join the forums. Of course, it started free and then transitioned to pay, but ultimately it was the kind of community they fostered from selectively keeping people out that makes it what it is today.

A moderated board, seperate from 4chan but requiring money, would probably become tripfag heaven. Since they'll pay money and anonymous won't, chances are 4chan may become underappreciated, which has its ups and downs. Less moderation would be good, up until moot gets sick of letting the internet run amok for free and forces everyone over to canvas.

>>995839
True. He's got a lot of options, I'm jealous.

>>995839
>>995829
Basically we're going to turn into SomethingAwful?

Why would such investors invest in another copy of Somethingawful? It'll be something of new interest; it won't be for 4channers alone.

A pay-to-use model? This makes it more likely than ever before that 4chan has quietly become part of the FauxNewsInternational Murdoch group. Murdoch has been rabidly promoting pay-to-use websites because he plans to buy the internet.

FUCK YOU, MOOT!

>>995845
Originally the only rule was to not talk about 4chan during a raid so mootle doesn't get vanned(makes sense right?) however this mutated into this god awful "ANANIMUS IS LEGIUN XDD DON'T TALK ABOUT /B/ WHOOPSI WHATS /B/? YOU MEAN /b/ RIGHT NEWFAG"-shit

>>995860
>The capitalists are after me

Oh the paranoia

>>995869
which bit are you arguing with? That murdoch has been promoting pay-to-use sites, that 4chan gets more coverage on faux networks than anywhere else, or that news international is in a position to fund moots plans when they are aligned with the corporations own?

>>995868
Yeah, I know. There were numerous reasons not to speak about 4chan, but that failed and of course what happened we ended up with Gaiafags, Habbofags, and Deviantfags all bunched up on /b/ and of course they were pissed and wanted revenge for their site(s)/profile page(s) being torn up by /b/tards.

For the whole /b/ vs. /B/ shit still completely sucked, and still does if they're still doing that now.

>>995846
>tripfag heaven
Yes but posting shit and then bumping it as Anon would get you quite fast banned, so human failures like Toxic Jester, Lanced Jack, Nigba, Manly Tears etc etc wouldn't last long there.

>>995876
Remember when we were on the news because of that guy who wanted to bomb (as a joke) a football stadium and that was it for the site being/getting famous for a day? Now we're in the news a lot and every time we are more people who "join" the site each day.

Yes, I am 'butthurt' over that fact.

Maybe if there were to be a site where people can become namefags and be somewhere else while 4chan gets less and less people on their site might be a good thing for the older members of the site can finally have their place back.

>>995902
bodacious oratory, frater.

>>995849
>>995859
>>995860
Nothing is confirmed, this is just some brainstorming over some shit a /v/irgin posted.

Yeah, let's invest in a site that helps people pirate software and get free paysite porn. Sounds good if you're a goyum.

FAKE JEWS DETECTED

OH LOOK MOOT'S WORKING ON 7CHAN II

>>995911
I lol'd at old image.

lol they'll never see their money again. timely work is to moot is what DEA is to a mexican drug lord.

Maybe it's something like a cross between the japanese 2ch forum but with all the gimmicks of 420chan and not built on ancient software with a slick clean web 2.0 style.

Many more boards for many different topics where people can drop in casually with no username or accounts or anything and post and read etc.

Like he said in his speeches, he was concerned at how little privacy there is in todays internet.

My main concern would be keeping the nsfw stuff away from the normal stuff.

>>995827
>detournement
Because I'm a fucking Marxist intellectual.

>>995814
>>995827
obvious samefag trying to impress himself.

>>996088
Actually, I'm a bit angry that they're too much of a dumb cunt to have known what detournement is, and how it is obviously applicable to meme cultures. 4chan - A cretin is you.

>>996093
no you tried to use a new word you just learned, nobody cared, so you decided to reply to yourself to bring attention to your original post. Good going man, you got your replies. I hope your ego can rest now.

>>996098
I've been using the word since around 1993, it was particularly suited to the oldfag accusation that we really weren't idiots, but were only pretending to be, because the situs went up their own arsehole too. Go and fuck yerself.

>>996113
>I've been using the word since around 1993

your argument is invalid

Why go half retard?
