/biz/ - Business & Finance

It didnt exist.

I'm quitting 4chan in 2020
This place gets noticably worse every year. You can tell a lot of posters are legit underages and/or virgin

>>16415000
/biz/ started in 2014

>>16415364
It was always like this based retard

>>16415000
everyone was 180 IQ making min of $4,000 a day on various business schemes

>>16415372
Right, but nowadays it's so bad that it's simply not worth my time anymore.
I've been here since 2009 or so btw.
And yes, /b/ used to be good. So did /pol/

We were all just younger and our virgin holes were still innocent

What’s the deal?
I’ve been here since 2008 and I feel the same about both your statements. In the past two years the quality dropped drastically. I thought hiroshimoot was steering the ship in the right direction but he’s just drove it into an iceberg.

>>16415766
We all migrated from reddit

It's because more people have access to the Internet and (I don't like using it but, unfortunately, it's true) "Normies" are more widespread in today's society.

Internet culture has spilled into IRL politics, discussion and way of life.
In a hundred years they'll be looking back and saying "Wow, they were so new to all of this, they acted so ridiculous with it"

"This" and "it" desu information era/digital age. Everything is insanely rapid and fantasy land compared to hundred years ago and since 2003-6-8

>>16415364
it definitely gets dumber yearly and attracts more actual retards than eccentrics. You'll come back even if you leave though.

>>16415388
/b was never good it wasn’t supposed to be

>>16415000
steve jobs and bill gates used to shitpost here and make fun of zucc

>>16415809
sounds like reddit desu. Do you have a lot of reddit points?

>>16415784
gross

>>16415388
/pol/ was good until the boomers came

>>16415000
/biz/ made me take a double mortgage on my house and invest all the money in lehman brothers

fake coupon scamming and shit like mturk

All nufags very gay like faggot OP

The fappening seems to be the thing that fucked us up. Literally a new paradigm on the chart.

>>16416443
gamergate and fappening caused the two bumps but orange man caused the boomer facereddit moon

>>16415364
Shut the fuck up you woman

>>16415368
>>16415357
Oh, I didn't know

>>16415364
People like you ruin the board. On any given thread at least 30% of posters are plebbit spacing. That doesn't even account for the plebbitors that don't space like that. 4chan is dead and you killed it.

>>16416219
I could actually imagining that juvenille ass Steve Jobs doing that.
Too bad Marlon Brando didn't live long enough to shit post on 4chan while LARPing as a Chinese exchange student.

>>16416719
It was already cancer before gamergate. The orange man boomers were more like the maggots infesting the already dead carcass. At this point you'll have to go to more obscure boards just to get a little meat but it will all be bones soon enough. /biz/ is a perfect example of that.

>>16415000
>not knowing /biz/ is a /g/ cryptoautism containment board

>>16415364
R*dditors like you are far worse than newfags

The good old days were /b/ in 2009 (only for people posting about BTC, it was dying for anything else) and /g/ when people posted and gived away millions of DOGE on December 2013.

>>16417949
it seems like it was just yesterday that the autists at /g/ were screaming at the coinfags for shitting up their board. i wonder how many basement dwellers regret not buying btc at those prices.

>>16417318
the plebb spacing condemnation is annoying. If anything, line breaks make reading on phones even easier. Sure the neets with their giant monitors can just zoom the window, but I have never minded it, also because I’m a writer and used to seeing spaces between paragraphs. Depends on the complexity of what is being said, a convoluted blogpost benefits from plebbit spacing, where as the:
“Hey fellow anons which coin should I buy, going to toss in 2k

TenX, Somn, Vib, Ost

Also looking to buy some goos long term holds”
Now that is when spacing pisses me off.

>>16418270
>>16417318
>wahhh he put a space in between his wall of text wahh

newfags like you pretending to be oldfags need to necc

>>16418270
I have been here since 2007 when I was underage b&. Nobody has EVER used r*ddit spacing until maybe 2014. Please, genuinely, kill yourself.

>>16415766
>>16415388
We're getting old frens...

>>16416225
>identifying yourself with a website
pathetic

>>16418956
Do you think we'll still be here in 2030? Unfortunately, I think that we will be.

>>16418955
people would just type LELE LONGCAT IS LONG

now the discussion has evolved

kys faggot

>>16418985
You're not wrong but it wasn't all like that. You forget that numerous anons were able to see the writing on the wall re: BTC and make megamillions.

>>16418984
This board is the final frontier imo. Think about it, its filled with oldfags that got curious and came back from the early days when /b/ = 4chan. Once/if this board goes the ways of all others i'll take my bow, but as it is it's getting harder to come here with older age + quality loss im sure you feel the same

>>16419049
Yeah. I took a break between 2014-2016 desu. I share a lot of the same feelings you do but I can't come to terms with how it came to be this way. Yes, there was an influx of r*ddit fags but there were similar problems back in the day, ie ebaumsworld and SA.

Personally, I have hope for these kids. We were retarded back in the day but we ended up carving a pretty unique place in the history of the world, or at least the Internet.

That being said, I think that /biz/ is the only OG board left. Unlike the waifu circlejerk on /a/ or the console war kids larping as oldfags on /v/, this is the only board where there are actual consequences to your post. If you shill xyz coin, poor Ranjesh can't eat curry for a week. Much like the glory days of /b/, I think we're at the razors edge again.

t b h as a 33 years old boomer who got on the internet in the mid-90s, this is how i felt about 4chan/somethingawful culture. it all seemed like a bunch of newbies who didn't get the internet and stuck to their mainstream communities, flash games, runescape, habbo hotel, wow
people who came in before eternal september probably see my type as retards too
every new wave will always look ridiculous. it's embarrassing to watch people my age purposefully make all lowercase tweets without punctuation to act cool, acting like teens used to in the late 90s

>>16418211
At least if coin threads were on /g/ there could actually be some god damned mother fucking productive discussion about fundamentals (unironically) and use cases and cryptography and smart contracts as opposed to this vapid fucking moonboi brapper Indian frog cesspool

>>16419156
Even though I probably called you faggots and told you to kill yourselves back in the day (and vice versa), I'm happy that we're all still here bros.

>>16419092
>Ranjesh can't eat curry for a week. Much like the glory days of /b/, I think we're at the razors edge again.
I like that feel and the feel that overall and I'm also happy the catalogue speed tends to be volatile enough to discourage generals. /biz/ is unironically the only board I'm glad doesn't really follow the no duplicate thread rules, since it keeps our catalogue free from that plague (exception being /smg/ but that is a different community at this point).

>>16419221
you seem to have made a mistake, /biz/ is for /b iz adults/ not /biz-ness/

>>16415388
blame betterttv twitch emotes for the recent influx of newfags these past few years

>>16416225
Hmmm. Google trends disagrees. US searches for 4chan have also been decreasing at the same slope

>>16417345
This is a surprisingly introspective post, lel.

4chan unironically was a pedo imageboard
