4chan is an online anime imageboard created by Christopher Poole, or "moot", in 2003. In October 2014, many 4chan users migrated to 8chan.

Brief History

4chan is a 2chan rip off originally intended to be used for anime discussion. Moot and his friends cannot post on 2chan because 2chan forbids posting outside of Japan, and only Japanese discussion is allowed. Then 4chan was born to fulfill the role of an English image board for anime.

Conspiracies and theories:

Now, 4chan is believed to be a honeypot, especially the /b/ board and the /pol/ board.

Also:

  • Mods of /b/ are FBI agents.
  • Mods of /v/ are EA/Valve shills.
  • Mods of /pol/ are JIDF and CIA niggers.
  • There are no mods on /g/.

In Poetry

Recently ChatGPT 3 was asked to write a poem about 4chan, and spake thusly: 

4chan, a site of mystery
A place where anonymity is key
Posters come and posters go
Leaving behind a trail of woe

Memes and jokes, trolls and spam
All manner of things, a chaotic jam
But amidst the noise and the fray
A sense of community starts to sway

For all its flaws, 4chan endures
A place where laughter often cures
Where the outcasts and the weird
Can gather and be heard

But tread with care, dear passerby
For 4chan can be rough and high
But if you're brave and take the chance
You may find yourself in a digital trance

So come and join the 4chan fray
Where nothing is quite as it seems to say
But one thing is for sure, my friend
You'll never be alone until the very end.
