The real, REAL kicker is that one of the big reasons 8chan ran so
poorly in the first place (leading to INFINITY NEXT™) was because
8/a/'s auto-moderation bot was effectively DDoSing the site for years
without anyone realizing until after 8chan was already dead (´∇`)
Anyway, Josh later did fix it up and used it for 9chan.us/9chan.tw
after 8chan died - it wasn't too bad actually, but even that site is
gone now (;´Д`)
At the very least, it's open source if anyone wanted to use it
(although I think jschan is probably the better choice now):
