Contents
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.
Date | Title | Posts/Files/Posters | Comment |
---|---|---|---|
2021-11-03 | /cyb/ + /sec/: Cyberpunk and Cybersecurity General: | 320 / 62 / 94 | The first to go past 310 for months. Abbreviated OP text. Many happy to see the general back, a few were quite the opposite. |
2021-10-20 | /cyb/ + /sec/ - Cybersecuity General | 61 / 13 / 30 | Lain mentioned but they deleted /cyb/, keeping /sec/; /Ω/ or /Δ/ has some /cyb/ discussion |
2021-10-04 | /cyb/ + /sec/ - Cybersecuity General | 20 / 01 / 16 | Brief, even by recent standards |
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 |
2021-10-02 | /cyb/ + /sec/ - Cybersecuity General | 05 / 03 / 11 | Died quickly: "This thread was dead on arrival. We have 13 posts of which 4 are bumps." |
2021-10-01 | /cyb/ + /sec/ - Cybersecuity General | 11 / 03 / 10 | Died quickly: "So is the general officially back?" And thread dies within 6 hours. |
2021-09-20 | /cyb/ + /sec/ - Cybersecuity General | 151 / 18 / 75 | New OP text, close to that of 2021-08-22, mostly sec, one anon declares /cyb/ FAQ jibberish, is rewriting for posting on Neocities. The incident is explained as /sec/ forcing out /cyb. Symb0l makes an appearance. |
2021-09-13 | /cyb/ + /sec/ - Cybersecuity General | 68 / 06 / 22 | Uses old format OP text. The Mega archive was taken down. |
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 |
2021-08-10 | /cyb//sec/ | 03 / 01 / 03 | One of the shortest ever, lasted less than 2 hours |
2021-08-02 | Does Anyone Have the /cyb/ Wall of Text? | 12 / 06 / 09 | Lasted just over 2 hours but OP got a reply. |
2021-07-26 | cyb/+/sec/ (7) - The Cyberpunk and Cybersecurity general | 99 / 16 / 44 | New OP text. Strong disagreement about past traffic with discussion of purge vs. "flop". 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". |
2021-07-15 | /cyb/+/sec/ #3 (Revival) - The Cyberpunk and Cybersecurity general | 315 / 69 / 76 | A "Cyberpunk has nothing to do with cybersecurity"-anon is early. Catbox 1.2 and 1.2.1 text files released. |
2021-07-13 | Cyb + Sec | 316 / 59 / 85 | First Catbox collection of text files released followed by version 1.1. Some Solarpunk contents too. |
2021-07-09 | Cyb + Sec The Thread Revival | 318 / 58 / 99 | That start of a series of attempts to revive the general. A frogposter is late in claiming "Cyberpunk has nothing to do with cybersecurity". People are surprised the thread has not been killed. Expectations were generally low. |
2021-06-19 | //CYB-SEC-GEN (CYB-SG)\\ | 91 / 9 / 47 | Op noted "Re-starting this General assuming the jannies haven't made it gone permanently. Apparently all of the tripfags and regulars got banned for some reason.
Disclaimer: If the jannies be mad and hatin', then this general is satirical in nature and really just a lulzy LARP". Others say people moved to Lainchan. Now gone regulars are listed. One anon keeps insisting none of this ever happened. |
2021-06-18 | //CYB-SEC-GEN (CYB-SG)\\ | 50 / 5 / 20 | Very brief OP text. Op note: "Re-starting this General assuming the jannies haven't made it gone permanently. Apparently all of the tripfags and regulars got banned for some reason." |
2021-06-06 | /cyb/ + /sec/ General - WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO /cybsec/ EDITION | 01 / 01 / 01 | One post. No replies. Shortest thread possible |
2021-05-29 | //cyb/ + /sec/ General -- Program Advance Edition | 88 / 12 / 32 | Mostly sec and bumps |
2021-05-24 | /cyb/ + /sec/ General WINDOWS WORM EDITION | 39 / 04 / 23 | Mostly sec and bumps |
2021-05-21 | /cyb/ + /sec/ General COMPILER DESIGN ISN'T A MEME EDITION | 106 / 10 / 46 | A purge and exodus to Lainchan is mentioned. Others objected. Regulars MIA were listed. |
2021-05-21 | /cyb/ + /sec/ Cyberpunk & Cybersecurity General | 9 / 1 / 6 | Brief |
2021-05-20 | /cyb/ + /sec/ General DAVE AITEL IS SMARTER THAN YOU EDITION | 21 / 02 / 13 | Brief |

2021-05-15 | /cyb/ + /sec/ General | 15 / 04 / 07 | Second same day attempt. Brief, mostly bumps. Some ask why the general has been dying lately. |

- the /sec/ News anons
- the /cyb/ News anons
- the Knowledge Management System (KMS) anon
- the Compiler anon, planned to compile all info from the threads. The News anons used the format "=== /sec/ News" as breadcrumbs for retrieval by Compiler anon
- Wiki anon, aka Symb0l
- the anons putting up the various Mega archives, the archives are all gone now

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.
