Funny, seeing as 90% of them dont know stick of RAM from a GPU, but go ahead keep labelling people and grouping them in with the bad apples, its a great way to go through life.

Do you remember what happened during MacWorld? They harbor hackers and delete their information (IP addresses, etc.) so that site owners can't go after the hackers. That's just one of the reasons that they should be shut down. I really could careless that 90% of them don't know the difference between RAM and a HDD, but the other 10% are criminals that should be tracked down, but 4chan protects them. This Time article is proof that they are hackers.

So its the the minority that constitutes going after all of them, that makes sense :rolleyes:

I guess its time to just lock up highschoolers too, because a few of them go nuts and kill people.

Im sorry but that logic is just a dangerous way to live.

No, I'm saying that 4chan should be shut down, because they harbor the hackers. They delete any information they have on them, and give them a safe place to brag about their achievements. 4chan should be forced to save the Hackers' IP addresses and give them to the proper authorities so that the hackers can be prosecuted. If they refuse, 4chan should be shut down.

^^^Fair enough. Sounds good to me.


Only thing I know about 4chan "hackers" is that they're really pathetic people who have nothing better to do than to hack a Time online poll and spell out something using the first letters of each name. I'm sure they're masturbating to their awesomeness right now.

As I mentioned on the first page, 4chan did NOT make the first letter of each name say "mARBLE ALSO THE GAME." That was 7chan.

4chan is a group of @hole hackers. Nothing on that site is useful, it's just a bunch of garbage. There's no point to it. It's basically a way for hackers to organize and collaborate from what I can tell.

Watch what you say. And I take that as an insult. If 4chan somehow sees this they may get bored and decide to raid us.
It's not full of hackers, that's mainly 888chan.
So if you think 4chan should be shut down, what do you think about the other chan sites? Such as 7chan, 2chan, 1024chan, 888chan, ect, ect.

You say they should be forced to save the "hacker's" IP address, but how would moot know which are the hackers and which aren't. Maybe there are reasons he doesn't save the information. 4chan has crappy scripting and loading time as it is, why have a bunch of IP addresses saved into the server to slow it down; along with the fact that there are probably over 50 new post a minute and about 80% of them have pictures attatched.

They don't delete information; they simply do not keep any information on users. Webmasters cannot be expected to be law enforcement.
