It's unfortunate that some of the content is there, but that's what you get in a place like 4chan.

Have you seen the other sites similar to 4chan?

PS. Mods/anyone that doesn't know what we're talking about - you're probably better off that way. 4chan content is definitely not for the faint of heart. I did consider linking to one of the more mainstream elements of 4chan, but decided against it.

Ermmmmm 12chan?! People were arrested, questioned and jailed.
I know theres a 7chan and 711chan.

The worst thread i saw was titled 'lets start a gore thread' or 'whats the most disturbing image youve seen'

There's loads of "chan" sites, most of the same though really.

Probably the funniest alternative I've seen had to be the EU version of 4chan.

The EU version did get closed, yes, the story goes that it annoyed too many EU type people - but that was the entire point.

You're missing the point of the "chan" sites if you think they should be moderated. It's all about being anonymous & not having (too many) rules.

Though you do have people like Chris Poole.

I only meant moderating of the cheese pizza, becuase i think stuff like that crosses the line.

Do you know boxxys real name?

Nope, but then I'm 'old school' enough not to care. I've met many influencial people in the IT world in my time on the net (met online and in person in some cases).

I'm of the opinion that until someone proves beyond all doubt that they are who/what they claim, then they can claim anything they want. So for all I know, you could be boxxy, and I wouldn't really give a damn.

Ohhh fiine. I know what it is though
Catherine Wayne. But by the sounds of it you wouldnt be that impressed anyway.

Don't get me wrong, I know the people (well, I should say I know of the people) involved with CBRC. I also know where they like to hang out (as I too like to hide there).

Fine line they're walking publishing what they did.

Tell me all... what exactly is CBRC

You don't know they published boxxy's details for all and sundry? 16 year old girl...house number, street, etc etc.

Only they got the information wrong.
