message: should i add that 4chan is about to die again and they need donations or would that be advertising?
:As long as you do not say "please go donate there right now!" or something to that effect, that would be stating a fact, not advertising. It all depends on the tone you use. --cesarb 20:23, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

message: Added a line to the top stating that 4chan was coming back under new management. I didn't add the new section however. Ghost Freeman 23:08, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)

message: Sweet Christ, do we really need that much on him in the article? Hell, do we even need to mention him beyond the CockMongler? --Paul Soth 20:52, 10 Sep 2004 (UTC)

replies: text: Well, it's been fixed now. Whole thing looked like a vanity job anyway. Last damn thing we need is the glorification of trolls. And lousy trolls at that. --Paul Soth 17:06, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC)

message: he's not a meme.  deal.
24.218.103.51, in your single-minded effort to be the sole arbiter of what is and is not a meme, you helpfully reverted my spelling corrections. Thanks, that's greatly appreciated. Now gb2/b/ and stay there. --208.180.124.100 01:16, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)

message: There was a Famous Dates section, displaying dates remembered by 4channers, why was it deleted?
:Probably got lost in the shuffle of vandalism and reversions. There's still a lot of useless and incorrect material in the current frozen state.
**Last known content of the "Famous Dates" section:
*** Scaturday (self explanatory)
*** Soviet Sunday was a day when everyone who posted was listed as Soviet Russia.  	
*** Guro Sunday is a day where /b/ is filled mostly with Guro. (Frequent)
*** The Day /b/ Reached Over 100 Pages was when 4chan's /b/ reached over 100 pages of random.
*** Furry Friday is similar to Guro Sunday, with the exception of yiffy images being posted instead of guro.
*** Death of /z/ was when the other random image board, known as /z/ was killed off. 
*** Tractor-chan was when one post on /b/ reached more than 300 posts, all about a plump girl who IMed W.T. Snacks, and is now known as Tractor-chan. 
*** /z/ Crashed 4chan twice was when the section of 4chan known as /z/ ate up so much of 4chan's bandwidth, that it crashed twice.
*** Death of 4chan (Note: this has happened on numerous occasions, only leading to the rebirth of 4chan later) One notable death of 4chan was dead for the fourth time. The owner, moot, announced it featuring an image of a jet that exploded in air, with a pilot floating away from it, arrows pointed to each object, the jet being 4chan, and the pilot being moot.

thread_title:  Famous Dates? 

message: * Removal of /b-only characters and memes, or at least their transfer to a "/b characters and memes" section. They can't really be considered general 4chan memes if they haven't spread beyond /b. They include Gildor, Psaiyan, Bad Teeth Man, Cock Mongler, Covercat, "Harbl" or "...touch my harbl", Queen of Punk, The Undernet, You forgot Poland.
* Removal of the memes that clearly predate 4chan or were not originated there or in 2chan. I'd hit it, Kill it with fire, "One does not simply ... into Mordor.", Needs more [...], y halo thar
* Reinstatement of the "Famous dates" section.

message: What the hell is wrong with you people? I have to admit, this is one of the dumbest arguements I've ever seen related to 4chan, and I spend most of my time on /b/. Who the hell cares whether or not a funny photoshop trend counts as a meme in everyone's eyes? Gb2/notgivingashit/
:It's also old, and the big reason why the article was a redirect for several months... along with all the /b/tards vandalizing the page. --Paul Soth 04:15, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  This is hillarious. 

message: Information once listed at Longcat has been merged into the Memes section. If Longcat isn't a notable 4chan meme, I don't know what is. If Longcat is viable enough to survive VfD (which it appears to be doing), it should definitely be able to be placed in the Meme section. --Canar 05:06, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Longcat 

message: Instead of being merged, the article was deleted outright. However, I think it's worth a paragraph or two in the memes section. Can somebody add the links back in, and perhaps some of the missing text? --Breathstealer 13:57, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: Your sarcasm is unwarranted and elitist. Care to explain how being a pompous ass about things is supposed to further knowledge? --68.231.194.38 02:51, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Dear Sir or Madam, I consider fictional erotic stories vanity! Especially since there is no manga or TV series. OK, while the story itself might have no importance, what about its effects on the world (or even 4chan)? None. —Philip Nilsson 13:10, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, it is currently a continual meme on 4chan. Furthermore, additional threads/stickies have been created in the same vein as Itoko Otoko and credit it as their inspiration. I would count that as a significant effect.--128.195.132.243 19:50, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

message: lol, looks like 4chan is dead again... or at the very least, in its last throes.  --I am not good at running 04:48, 30 September 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Looks like it's dead again 

message: Please stop adding the "5th death" every time 4chan is unavailable.  In most cases the site is down simply because things are being worked on.  If you are unsure of the site's status, do a little 'research' by checking the topic in #4chan.  --Thatdog 21:16, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

message: Someone needs to explain all this about him being banned and stuff?
watch the movie
Woah, Snacks was banned? I must have missed that. How come?
I thought he left himself in a tantrum?
He isn't and he didn't.
