oh moot

>>9289812
the rules were made by the man to put you down

>>9289775
I was actually going to use that picture...

Also, I created a better thread with a bonus video:
>>9289765

This was on youtube forever ago

>>9289836
Yes, but now you can see it legit, and with better picture and sound!

>>9289833

You're thread has less replies than mine and is not better. What does it matter anyway, just watch the video.

Moot should of watched some TED videos and got some practice in or something.

Seems ill prepared for TED.

It's about time. Now we can all watch moot completely buckle when the host questions him about CP.

having actually watched it now, it was somewhat less about anonymity than "hey look what we did"

Probably procrastinated up until the last minute.

I kinda lost some respect for moot from this talk. I think I could have given a much better presentation on 4chan. In terms of memes, impact, etc, there are tons of interesting things I could have said more accessibly and faster. But not bad overall.

Wtf was that at the end tho? He wants to be an urban planner? You have a giant and amazingly popular website, and instead of wanting to do anything related to that to be a millionaire, you want to sit at a desk and decide where parks should go?

Seems dumb. Do what you do best.

>>9290159
I think he wants do what what he enjoys doing.

Christ moot is awkward at the end when he's being questioned. Just look at his shoulders, and how submissive he is.

>>9290185

i lost all respect i had for him when i saw the way he handled himself

mr internet tough guy cant even trollface the fuck out of some 40 year old faggot nerds

>>9290159

He's building that new site, I think he's going to end up doing something 4chan related or descended from 4chan for the rest of his life.

It was kind of awkward to watch. The memes picture was just a bunch of cut out meme pics he through up on mspaint. The dusty is the only beneficial thing you could really say 4chan has done, the times thing was ok, and the scientology protests were a given.

That said it was short and you know that he had to know that when he got done up there several would look his site up and loose any credit he had.

That said I wouldn't expect less from our over lord. I mean this is the same guy who wanted to get all dressed up and take a girl out to mcdonalds.

Also, if any of you missed the other thread, the roflcon video is also up. You may find it more interesting, since it's a more intimate atmosphere than standing alone on a stage in front of the smartest people in the world.

you are one close-minded fuck.
its obvious he wanted to show off the different sides of 4chan, rather than spill all of our shit out like a newfag.
and at least an urban planner is something helpful towards a community, something like what 4chan could be if we gave a fuck. its obvious he's getting older, and maturing. something that the faggots on this board don't know how to do, apparently

>>9290159
He does what he likes. I doesn't have to be 4chan related.

>>9290242

4chan's a lot more mysterious when you don't post on it and don't visit it. Once you get here you get used to it.

Although I think moot feels sorta silly wherever he goes: especially at TED, where he's going to be proceeded and followed by people on the cutting edge of their high-end fields.

>>9290242
But you must remember that moot said that 99% of the memes featured on that picture was considered shit. I don't know why he considered most of them on the picture were shit anyway.

>>9290242

fucking whores man...

I've never been to TED b4 and from what I see it seems pretty much right-wing propaganda, sort of a 'keep-it-down crowd' kind of place.

That said, considering TED is just a means to distribute content in this case, the video seemed, well, sort of PG-13 at most. Which is not what 4chan is about. Yes the adult content was mentioned, but I can't help but feel that a big chunk of what 4chan and /b/ is was left out.

Is that good or bad? Well, depends. Good for moot's presentation, bad for the rest of us? Or perhaps it's good for Anonymous, us, as well. If keeping said Anonymity is the goal, that is.

I would have liked the distinction to be made between "Anonymous" the default word in the -Name- field, and "Anonymous" the group. 4chan is obviously anything but anonymous, however I for one believe that Anonymous the group of people is a little more complicated to define, and just saying "Anonymous is a website" can't fit the bill.

Overall good, but I keep feeling this video could have easily been turned into a Reader's Digest article.

I think he played down the adult content sufficiently. He should have played it down a little more though. Can you imagine all of those old educated faggots coming here and seeing all the real shit that's being posted.

Is that sort of thing not what we're all about?

>Good for moot's presentation, bad for the rest of us? Or perhaps it's good for Anonymous, us, as well. If keeping said Anonymity is the goal, that is.

When you mean the phrase "Or perhaps it's good for Anonymous", is he referring to the 4chan collective/community/hivemind?

>>9290649
No, I think in my opinion he played down the whole site completely. 4chan these days, is a general English-language imageboard, so there is more to this site than /b/ and it's memes. moot has to choose examples that would best resonate with the audience in TED. If he explained 4chan as a whole, they may not get it.

The sad truth is that in order to understand 4chan, you have to see it for yourself, and the best way to do it is not to visit /b/. Most of the active imageboards on 4chan, like /a/ and /v/, are meme factories in their own right
