4chan has just grown old. no real new blood joined, 4chan became a cultural awareness hub, its more common to say 4chan influenced people instead of saying a person is an active 4chan member. the juice has been squeezed and the chances of courting new members is low with every thread having anti social borderline hostile posters.  > you don't discuss video games on v > you don't discuss tv on tv > you don't discuss politcs on pol  and just down the list, every board here has their own in joke that goes along the lines of > it's lit, no one here actually reads!  then what's the point? so i can see a dudes asshole? i think most people will agree, 4chan is just a habitual routine now. the internet has become dead in terms of searching, and it's just a website that we know exist and has some life left in it. even then, most threads will get 0 replies and 0 looks. r9k is so dead, they don't even have e-girls anymore. they have discord dudes!
