The Incident

In a recent /cyb/ /sec/ thread one anon asked about the incident. This is controversial, should we add a page on the topic? Below some notes while I try to figure out what happened, searching Desuarchive.

Notes

Desuarchive shows the /cyb/ generals ran from 2014 until the incident in 2021. The first post is dated 2014-03-05 and refers to Cyberpunk which started 2014-02-05. The first Cyberpunk general was dated 2013-01-21.

Timeline

  • range banning /sec/ posters was mentioned.
  • an irrecoverable purge was mentioned 2021-08-17, the incident must have taken place earlier.
  • a dispute if there was a purge vs. /cyb/ never existed 2021-07-26
    • "Cyb died because there wasn't anything cyb related to talk about, other than posting pictures why does it need a general? It's literally /fa/"
  • normal thread reaching 313 posts dated 2021-07-21; the next expired after 35 posts.
Threads

2021-10-02 /cyb/ + /sec/ - Cybersecuity General 73 / 12 / 30 Started same day as previous general. Suggesting /sec/ turned on /cyb/ and spammed people away, via /fa/, general declared mostly dead

2021-09-07 /cyb/ + /sec/ - Cybersecuity General 13 / 02 / 11 Lasted about an hour. one anon mentions "we all moved bro no need to make more threads here", another that "sec posters got range banned for some reason"
2021-09-07 what happened to /cyb/ threads? 11 / 01 / 08 Lasted nearly 3 hours. Op asked but got no answers.
2021-08-22 /cyb/er/sec/ 82 / 09 / 39 New OP text. One anon noted that "Sadly this is another /sec/ threadlet dressed up with some stolen /cyb/ feathers. It will not last," and was right.
2021-08-16 /cyb/ + /sec/ 33 / 06 / 27 Old OP text. Mostly discussions on what OP text should be. A purge is mentioned

Even the /sec/ FAQ has not seen a single update since that "happening". First admission that there was an attack in that "jannies kept deleting them".
2021-07-24 cyb/+/sec/ (6) - The Cyberpunk and Cybersecurity general 31 / 05 / 17 New OP text, but not the latest 1.1 and latest about 7 hours.
2021-07-21 /cyb/+/sec/ (5) - The Cyberpunk and Cybersecurity general 313 / 71 / 82 Old OP text, new versions 1.0 and 1.1 was suggested. Some claim "we are on lainchan".
2021-07-17 /cyb/+/sec/ #4 (Revival) - The Cyberpunk and Cybersecurity general 320 / 57 / 86 Mention of people range banned 3 - 6 months, plus "the huge purge a month or so ago".

Summary

The incident happened before the summer. People have strong opinions that there was a purge vs. it never even existed. Whatever happened, the general went from 300+ posts in a few days to expiring after less than 100 posts. Regulars and archives disappeared around the same time.
