Wow nice timing there. Youtube is down for maintenance.

It's working for me now, I think

I stopped watching during Moot humoring the video game guy. I felt a little of his pain.

Everyone quiets down when moot starts talking. It's interesting how much respect he has in real life.

>>4566930
Yeah, awkward all around isn't it?

They also don't look away from him, regardless of who is talking or who they're talking to

>>4566762
>- Some girl offering a gummi bear to be a mod, moot rejecting her

Actually, she had asked moot to marry her.

I wonder what else you got wrong?

God I feel awkward just to watch the goddamn thing

>>4566762

A bunch of socially awkward nerds act socially awkward in real life? SHOCKING.

A faggot surrounded by lots of even sadder, giggling faggots

It would be fun to cut off the top of moot's head and remove parts of his brain while he was still alive.

>>4566964

You're that 'girl', aren't you?

Seems like moot is serious about turning this place around. He added a text board to /v/ which he claimed to love in the video and now he is asking for our imput on chances to the robot. Glad I got to participate in that thread last night.
I just hope he really does open mod applications. Even if I don't get in I want to see more public bans for the stupid stuff that happens around here. Lulz has its limit.

did they hang out there until the park closed? I can't imagine what they were talking about for hours

I couldn't even watch it.

too painful. The awkward... THE AWKWARD!!!

>>4567017
>He added a text board to /v/

THAT BOARD HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE

What's going on with the guy with the cigar?

OLD MAN PUFFING A CIGAR WHILE STARING INTENTLY IS NOW A MEME

>What makes you laugh, moot?

>THE VIDYA

Fuck year! /v/ gets a little bit of recognition!

God, the one neckbeard guy with glasses who wouldn't shut up was annoying the shit out of me.

Oh well, at least moot was cool.

>>4567040
I don't remember it always being under there. Maybe I'm blind but everyone was flipping out about it on /v/ the other day as if it were new. Maybe he changed something about it or just the name of the board. Who knows.

God, you can just see the smugness oozing from moot, 'I am certainly better than these nerds because I am the head nerd'. I almost feel bad for moot but then I remember all of this is his own doing.

l don't think l need to post anything aIong with this image.

>>4567058

But he IS better, at the very least in terms of hygiene and grooming, or so it would appear. FFS, he was invited to the Times 100 gala and didn't crumble under that social pressure. That's gotta count for something.

I would not be comfortable in this situation. I would not be comfortable looking up to any human being like these faggots do, especially fucking moot.

Dammit, why can't I live in/near NYC? That would be some excellent wierdo-watching opportunity.

>>4567083

Wouldn't you say someone who makes the Times 100 is probably worth looking up to?

bloxxxxxxxxxxxies

>>4567017
>Seems like moot is serious about turning this place around.

Hahahahaha

I'm guessing you weren't around in March of '07

>>4567139

Now I don't want to downgrade Moot's achievement in getting on there to begin with, but a friend of mine made a good point in saying that all we need to do is stop and think about what would have happened if Moot DIDN'T make the top 100 to realise one possible reason he was there. That is, the backlash from Anonymous. There would have been hell to pay.

>>4567125

That makes me wonder how many of the weasely looking kids and the neckbeards starting at us from the far benches were 4channers who were too afraid to come close.

>>4567160

That means something, doesn't it?

He's the chief nerd, the alpha geek of our generation. And he has a legion under his command.

>>4567160
>Anonymous
>backlash
YEAH, LIKE ANONYMEURS WOULD ACTUALLY GIVE A SHIT, AICORRECTINMYBELIFS?

moot is okay, but he's no snacks

>>4567074
>>4567074
>>4567074

haha fuckin lold hard because its so true

(cried a bit on the inside actually)

>>4567184
to me he almost comes off as not a nerd at all, like he somehow happened upon 4chan and reluctantly took over. It's like he has something better to do. I sometimes actually find myself believing, based on interviews, that moot actually is or was one of the popular kids. But then i remember how much time he must be putting into this shit hole.

>>4567160
anonymoose is lesion

hurf durf

>>4566762

>NYPD circling the premises, ready to gun them all down at a moment's notice

There is a large police presence at almost every Nyc park all the time.

>>4567074

wtf was yahtzee doing there

ahahah a bunch of homosexual men surround the creator of the site they post furry porn on all day.

what a lovely meeting! even the sun was out!

>>4567074

Is that...Ben Yahtzee Croshaw?!

moot knows way more about 4chan than any of us; that's the only reason i would look up to him, everyone else needs to stop sucking his dick because he's just a regular guy. he doesn't have a "legion" under his command, he can't control /b/ as he's said many times.

GHB Gummy Bear.

>>4567184
Moot is the internet's Tyler Durden, but he's less comfortable with the almost accidental power he has over mindless drones than Brad Pitt was. He's more like Edward Norton.

Also, handsomely nerdy everyman.

>>4567252

Two minute too slow bro.

>slowbro

>>4567252
Just a guy who cosplays Yahtzee. There's a thread on /cgl/ about him somewhere.

>>4567288

No he isn't you immense faggot.

I stopped watching when some neckbeard started talking about clouds in a video game.

>>4566762

Everyone asking to be a mod is a god damn moron and should permanently be banned.

That is one group of ugly, disgusting guys.

>>4567323
why? a lot of us genuinely want to make this website better and more enjoyable to use

>>4567288
I hate you.


Also I laughed about the Lanced Jack and Taiga drama.

>>4567024
You never talked with your friends for more than half a day?

>>4567048
what was with that guy?

This video made me feel better about myself.

If these guys represent the average 4chan user, I am far above average.

>>4567354
they aren't friends, they are lonely strangers

I showed up at the NYC meet.

It was kinda freaky.

>>4567339
at least 90% of those who ask to be a mod would abuse the position

this goes doubly for any board with a high concentration of fanboys

Moot was by far the most attractive guy there. He's actually quite good looking. Needs to do something with his hair though.

>>4567363
You never made friends with people quickly?
You never met people you oonly knew from the internet?

So many of them have glasses and beards... yuck.

I bet the whole fountain area stank of BO.

from the thumbnail, it kinda looks like moot is holding a bowl

>>4567391
well i know i wouldn't but i agree there is a lot of room for abuse

>>4567403
1. Yes.
2. No, faggot.

YOUNG KIDS THESE DAYS
I SWEAR TO GOD SOMETIMES I WANT TO PUNCH THEM
I WAS AN OLDFAG WHEN IT WAS 4CHAN.NET

Did anyone ask why he hasnt appointed any new mods in over a year? Or why /a/ thinks I am a mod?

>>4567058
Smugness? Which video did you watch? He comes off as so unassuming.

>>4567451

i dont get smug but at times he is definitely looking like "holy crap what a bunch of freaky neckbeards ive unwittingly lassooed" but then again so would i if a bunch of people came up to me kissing my ass

It's actually ten times better a meetup than the ones in which /b/tards participate.

It just goes to show that there is a neckbeard / normalfag divide on 4chan and that the neckbeards are generally the better contributors while the normalfags are the ones who spam boards about mudkips and 'epic win'.

I stopped listening to Sly and the Family Stone for this.

I love the cigar dude, though.

Does anyone at any point say anything I might be interested in, because I'm only hearing an orgy of stuff about /v/ideogames.

>>4567074
I fucking lol'd.

It's pretty sad how 4chan is mostly full of a bunch of weirdos.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to microwave my socks and shove marbles up my nose.

>>4567481
>up my nose.
try putting them in your ass, normalfag

In during huge thread

>>4567404

surprisingly enough, no.

It didn't smell at all.

>>4567074
I lold at the fucking goofy hat

LOL!

>>4567502

I did too. Fedoras are cool but not everyone is cool enough to wear em.

I would just ask him if the posts we see of him having troubles paying for server space and such is true and if they are being honest, if there's any particular reason he keeps the boards up.

>>4566930
I stopped when he told the guy with the camera to get cops on the video. It was obviously to change the topic.

Isn't this the motherfucker from the other video who was all, "Don't ask 'why' questions because they always in 'why answers."?

FUCKING RAGE HE IS ANNOYING. HOLY FUCK.

hey moot make me a mod
hey moot make me a mod
hey moot make me a mod
hey moot make me a mod
hey moot make me a mod
hey moot make me a mod

>>4567139
Didn't he make it because we rigged the vote or is that not decided by vote?

>>4567531
I think he is. Yes, he was very irritating.

>>4567531
HOLY SHIT I HATE THAT GUY

>>4567299 pemootb

Link plz?

These men are most likely going to stalk moot and rape him.

>>4567538

it was rigged on a colossal scale

I left before this happened. To get sushi with old friends. Looks like I didn't miss anything.

Jesus, they all have such high pitched voices and no fashion sense.

background music of this vid?

>>4567538

"we" You didn't do fucking anything, you just admitted to not knowing. I LOVE BEING A PART OF A MOVEMENT, god, you fucks!

Am I the only person who sees a resemblance to Moot and Sly?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gq7Ed0Sk8DI

>LOL I HAS CUNT MARRIAJ TIEM NAO PLS/

>>4567538

This was not based on voting. He won the online poll that accompanies the time 100 issue, but he was always going to be in the time 100.

They got Rick Astley to write the article on him though and it sucked. More about Rick Rolling than about moot.

That old dude was a 4channer for sure.

>>4567636
Can anyone confirm what type of phone that is?

I have a similar looking phone.

You guys should be banned from wearing hats. Seriously its not a god damn band-aid to your fashion wound.

See, this is why it's dangerous to go to these. You're no longer anonymous.

>>4567299

a thread about Yahtzee or about the guy in the video?

jesus i could not get past 1 minute, that was painful

STOP SAYING SOCIALLY AWKWARD YOU'RE MAKING ME FEEL SOCIALLY AWKWARD AND REMINDING ME OF MY SOCIAL AWKWARDNESS.

Some people are awkward.

Get over it.

>>4567856
It's just that I don't see many people like that in real life, and I find it interesting.

The video is actually alright, it's just a bunch of nerds talking about internet shit and moot's explaining why he couldn't block the DDOS. The guy right next to moot that keeps pulling out his cell phone is kinda weird but there's nothing too outlandish.

>>4567659
I used we to describe 4chan as a whole. I'm a part of that so, out of habit, I used "we". I admit to not voting because, frankly, I didn't give a shit about some poll related to Time.
Way to make an assumption about me based on the fact I used "we" instead of "you". I thought the massive voting campaign was dumb, I'll admit it. I'll admit I never responded to those threads or even copied their links. I was not part of a "movement", I won't hide it.

>>4567940

i didn't vote either, it just annoyed me because anonymous was the one who rigged the poll

>>4567972
Eh, I didn't mind the rigging, it's not anything important, I just hated seeing the threads everywhere on 4chan.

Moot must get so much pussy it's not even fuckin funny. Pretty impressive for a geeky average looking guy...

Wow, what a bunch of ugly fucking retards. And with this fucking scum I spend time online? Well, when I read this shit people post it actually figures.

I am speechless. Cringed the whole video.

>>4568009
Someone needs to get off their high-horse. What do you expect? It's the fucking internet, on a site that was founded to host discussions on anime and Japan.

>>4567531

yeah fuck that guy I hope he's reading this

I all I can say is Moot seems like a completely normal kid, the people around him are fucking crazy. Moot answers questions normally, and converses normally, he just got lucky on what website he was administrating years ago. That said, I would hang out with moot and speak nothing of 4chan, because that's what he seems to want and it seems 4chan is just one of those things he has to unfortunately deal with.

The only thing I wish moot would do is get some mods in /fa/.
We kind of need it.

>>4568049
That's like hanging out with a musician and not talking about music!
Not that you just have to just talk about that, it just seems if you meet him and you have a question on the subject, it would be silly to not ask.

WHAT DOES THE BEARDED MAN KEEP LOOKING AT

>>4568063
yeah im sick of going on there and seeing gore and porn and its not even an 18+ board

Is it bad that I cant really see a lot of the social awkwardness you all speak of? Does this mean Ive reached the lowest point of social awkwardness? Fuck

What I don't is why moot doesn't add a filter similar to /r9k/'s to ban any of the anontalk type DDoS posts before being posted.

Just use regex to get around that silly "dklfsjlkfsjk" shit they add to the end of the post. If it finds a specific string anywhere in the post, just mute them for 2 months. It would stop the fucktarded /b/tards from copypasting random shit or falling for the .js image thing and bringing down the entire img server and then putting their shit on every other fucking worksafe board.

I couldn't make it past a minute.

>>4568145

It just means you're not trolling the thread.

Which makes you weird, actually, posting what you really think.

>>4568112
Seriously guys, does anybody who was there know what was over in that direction? It's really bugging me. He looks a little bit scared every time he looks at it.

I feel bad for watching this shit.

>>4568145
No, it's not as awkward as a lot of people make it. At least, not the start. I really did stop watching early because the video game guy was really fucking awkward.
That being said, if you didn't find the video game guy awkward, you are socially awkward.

All of these people look surprisingly 'normal' & not at all socially awkward, holidng what appears to be a successful & fluid conversation... Maybe it's just because they're all 4chan-ers, wonder what the conversation would be like if we took these people & filmed them with strangers who they didn't share the same connection with.

>>4568063
Agrreeed lol

Moot doesn't care about the textboards! Textboards have 0 mods! Moot is a dick!

Oh god fuck that paranoid fag with the castro hat bugging the camera guy in the related video

>>4568117
All of 4chan is 18+, you stupid retard.

>>4568232
The socially awkward wouldn't talk and would probably burst into tears or something.

>>4568411
I guess this crowd is socially retarded then? They can't a hint that the convo topics are usually nosediving and really uncomfortable.

>>4568372
I guess I'll go ahead and break it to you that nobody follows this rule.

>>4568458
Of course nobody follows it, but saying "it's not even an 18+ board" is still stupid. Don't loudly claim you're still an underage retard.

>>4568458
Underageb& this clown GOD WHO AM I KIDDING

OP pic looks like moot's hand is disintegrating into a mist that's floating upwards.

To people in this thread who said the video is too painfully awkward to watch, don't you guys enjoy it, just a little bit?! I know you guys are just exaggerating for effect.

I don't think it's really fair to call this video "socially akward" considering the circumstances.

>>4568186
I'm guessing it's the cops.

My two observations:
1) Moot is charismatic. It stands in stark contrast to basically everyone else there.
2) Goddamn everyone there is a neckbeard or dressed like the matrix

Yo this video is really not that painful or socially awkward. The worst part about is the sucking up to moot.

Didn't seem to awkward to me (except the vidya neckbeard. I didn't think they really existed.). Too bad I'm a state away and couldn't make it.

Shame they didn't talk about some of the more urgent problems.

>Girl offering weird cube of gummy-bears and asking him to marry her.

I cringed.
