- onewland 17y agoIn all fairness, as much as you may not be a Bill Gates fan, it's pretty difficult to suggest that he's as unimpressive as the founder of 4chan. All the 4chan guy did was make an unmoderated message board.
- vaksel 17y agohere is a question...was 4chan the first image board, or did it just use the main image board script?

- DanBlake 17y agoBetter question- How does 4chan keep itself from getting raided for the endless amount of CP that gets posted there?
- ErrantX 17y agoBecause it's mostly a non-issue on 4Chan.
- jgrahamc 17y agoWhat's CP?
- rms 17y agoNFSW http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/CP http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/CP Also, CP stands for Christopher Poole. It is quite likely that Christopher Poole is a fake name, chosen becase of the CP meme.
- jgrahamc 17y agoThanks. I was being dense. I assumed it was Copyright Protection.
- pyre 17y agoI'm pretty sure it's a fake name. 4+ years ago I mailed something to him and the name he gave with the mailing address was completely different (no I don't still have the mailing address, I'm not that organized) and I've heard that same name bandied about elsewhere (at least the same first name). But who knows it could also be fake.
- aceofspades19 17y agoUmm 4chan is moderated thats why it doesn't get raided by the FBI, you obviously have never been there
- pyre 17y agoIt's unmoderated in the sense that the bare minimum amount of moderation happens. (to remove illegal content to avoid getting shut down/raided)
