During when this was the case, there was nothing that would require us to enforce Rule 8 there. Also Heyuri users didn't suddenly start uploading AIDS on 2ちゃん、 those people found it outside Heyuri thx to it being advertised/ linked outside Heyuri... so it has grown. It doesn't matter anymore. I talked about this with kuz, and we approved enforcing R8 on 2ちゃん from now on (´ー`) This brings up moar questions though.

The incredibly lulzy Habbo Hotel and Second Life raiding both began that year, many epic threads were posted during that time (including the legendary https://2ch.cx/src/2180.jpg which is one of my all-time favorites), and material like DESU, OVER 9000, Pool's Closed, and Shoop Da Whoop -- which now are considered classics -- became memes in 2006. /b/ was essentially unmoderated and thus extremely free, and this freedom contributed immeasurably to its fun. If you want to name a specific year during which /b/ began its long decline, I would say 2008, or perhaps late 2007 at the earliest; everything earlier undoubtedly belongs to the golden age.

The only debate when it comes to the "golden age of /b/" is whether it ended in mid-2004 when moot pulled the plug on the site for several weeks, or whether it extends into 2005 when things kinda sucked but didn't suck much as they would later suck.

The Patriotic Nigras are true Internets superheroes. I should emphasize to you that I greatly enjoy Heyuri, and am not at all undervaluing the 2003-2005 era: it is just as excellent and important to 4chan's and /b/'s history as 2006 and 2007. I simply do not appreciate your disparagement of 2006 and 2007, as I believe that the events and cultural developments which occurred during those years were positive ones that are inseparable from the essence of old /b/. Quality did not suddenly decline during that time, and I could offer you many examples of entertaining, witty, and epic threads from 2006 and 2007, as well as highly creative OC from those years, too; /b/ suffered no shortage of creative and intelligent users then. >and that's why everyone who is dumb enough to try and recreate /b/ circa >2006 will receive a shit website filled with humorless morons Hey, now, is that a challenge? If I were to find an imageboard (or launch one myself) that successfully combines what Heyuri offers with the memes, raids, trolling, shock humor, transgression, and free-wheeling atmosphere that characterized 2006 and 2007 /b/, that would truly be a dream come true.
