>>8297411it was mostly the big boards where it wasn't accepted because it was a bunch of retards looking to make a name for themselves on high traffic boards.
On smaller boards, or formerly small boards, like /fit/ /co/ /k/ /toy/ etc it was mostly done for what they're supposed to be used for, specific people with good info or decent content using a trip so they couldn't be impersonated.
As time went on,and cross baorders polluted teh place, with no respect for board culture (lurk moar, bannign shitposters, etc) these things got lost to time.
It's the slow backslide of our community because we don't have passionate mods anymore. They're so out of touch and hands off that only the most egrigious shit gets banned or removed unless it infringes copyrights.
FFS t b.h. f.a.m. and s0.i are stil;l filtered, but seethe, cope dilate, cringe, based, incel, and have sex are still allowed even though on old 4chan that shit would've been filtered two years ago.
