4chan's site traffic tripped in the weeks after that newscaster did that whole "hacker known as 4chan" bullshit. Over half of those new users stayed, mostly contained to /b/ (thank God). Other events COINCIDENTALLY happened shortly after that that put 4chan in the media spotllight again. I don't remember them all but I believe they were gaymer gate and the celebrity nude leak and others. Then you start seeing 4chan related clickbait on youtube, the '4chan twitch raid' videos that have nothing to do with 4chan. These things are bringing in unwanted normies to this website. Probably da Jews fault. I would find some google analytics to back this up but I might cry. Have pic related instead.
>why /wsr/ specifically?
I think we're too kind. Newfags will go to other boards and get intimidated by how different it is yet here we're pretty chill and easygoing.
