The history of [s4s] has been moved to its own separate page; this will happen to every board soon. The same users having a bitch fit about "stickies we dont give a fuck about" keep adding melodramatic board drama that passes in a day to the article, and said this is the reason "/jp/ died", even though the thing about imageboards is, boards can always bounce back from AIDS if enough good threads are made to set an example. Either way, if you find something interesting and historic enough to add it to "the history of /jp/" article, go right ahead.

history of shitposting with ads

the article currently implies ad shitposting on /vp/ started with ads in october 2019, but it actually started almost a decade earlier; https://imgur.com/a/iA4nRVZ there were several threads bitching about it, 22594427 is one example of several. this might've had a limited influence in the lasting consciousness because 4chan mods used to do their job and were deleting the threads pretty quickly – i.e. "you had to be there" – but the board was shit for the better part of a few days. still, it's newfag revionism to mark 2019 as the start of it
