    • Over the past 48 hours 4chan's formspring page has gotten over 12,000 questions, and I've received over 3,000 e-mails. Many thanks to everyone who submitted a question, and sent me a message! I was able to respond to a few hundred e-mails and had hoped to start answering questions on formspring, but it seems that the number of questions broke the page. Once that's sorted out, I'll sift through them and answer as time allows.
    Thanks again for all of the support!

    In other news, /rs/ now processes MediaFire/MegaUpload/and a bunch of other links correctly (this had been broken for months). The old links should be updated in about a week (the checker is taking a while).
    Thanks to Popcorn Mariachi for spontaneously appearing and fixing this.

    Final reminder: Ask questions here, e-mail me here (I read *every* one), and follow 4chan on the Twitter here.

    Hey brobots, can I ask for your assistance? I'm in AP World History, and I have a Change over Time essay due tomorrow. The subject is the Balkans (Balkan Peninsula), and the time frame is the 1800's through 1914, and the outbreak of WWI.

    One of my major faults in that class is not being able to write a good thesis statement..could one of you kindly help me? Please :\

    Tell me about the Balkans from 1800s to 1914, and I'll see if I can write you a Thesis statement.

    Ottoman empire - fading
    serbia - "flexing their political muscles"; they're being showoffy douchebags

    You might need to tell me more about that to get a better thesis statement, but:

    The Balkans were in a transient period during these times, the Ottomans which had stood as a lordly and collective empire was crumbling, and in response Serbia was finding their own strength in the world.

    Rather meh, imo.

    My book doesn't say much about it, which is really weird. I found some websites with information on them though.

    All you need to know is shit gets whack, there's a clusterfuck in Europe, the world tells Germany their shit stinks and leaves them to wallow in self pity for a few years. Hitler comes along and is like 'FUCK THAT SHIT' and there's ANOTHER clusterfuck in Europe. Germany fucks with the wrong Lusetania, or was that WWI? Yeah that was WWI. So Japan bombs the wrong Harbor and the US is all like 'FUCK YOUR SHIT' and decides to take on the world. US wins, Russia is huttburt and the two get down and dirty for a few decades. US wins, US rules the world for a while but ultimately corporations supplant government and the world falls under the fist of BILL GATES who has secretly bought up various international enterprises since the 90's and owns well over half of the global market. Bill gates rules the world, he has relocated to the moon and threatens global extermination via DRIVING THE MOON INTO THE EARTH if anyone challenges his rule.

    That is the history of the world.

    Isn't driving his place of reside into the earth a little suicidal?

    If i had the technology i would build my space base on mercury. It would have to be underground, but no one would fuck with you there. What are they going to do, nuke boiling lead?
