At what moment did 4chan peak?

It peaked?

Right before the normies and rightwingers invaded, before that it was 24/7 sidesplitting laughter. /b/ used to be about the lulz and nothing but the lulz and that's what made it great. The less funny it got, the worse it got. Now it's not funny at all, just another jerk off site fucking up teenage minds.

Pretty accurate
m00t hated the 2008 Scientology protests, so I'd guess that's when 4chan peaked. That was maximal mystery powers when we were taken as seriously as we ever could be.
And we used it to shitpost in real life.

4chan ended the moment anonymous began to take itself seriously. So pre scientology raids.

Fuck, I remember that. It was nuts. Mootles lost control of the 4chan domain for a period of time because of it.

momentarily, any moment now

remember wooo is suicide

>>942387834
This. The day that 4chan started to actually moderate is when it went to shit. People who say that /b/ was never good weren't here before that.

What made 4chan popular in the first place was because it was unmoderated.

This, and honestly, it is just shit now, i am still here out of tradition, but you all suck and ruined it, big time. Summerfags stayed too long and now there is no one worth it left. They do not even know how to triforce.

I dunno about peak, but when smart phones were available to all sorts of retards was the end of the internet
since then internet has shifted to exploiting dumb fuck fonefags at the expense of being interesting

I would say that there are multiple points when it peaked. Jessie Slaughters, Shia Luhbuff's flag, operation shellshock, scientology, that tumblr war, etc
>>
>>942390864
Yeah 4chan rose in prominence at that point where computers were king, Blackberries were as smart as phones got (not very), and even having a computer meant you needed some savvy to keep it going (many didn't). So it was at an inflection of smart people doing early trolling and playing edgelords before such a term even existed. What a time to be alive, never to be repeated again.
>>
>>942391310
Now I wouldn't say NEVER to be repeated again, sooner or later, time may do it's thing, and something may happen, but it sure as hell won't be any time soon
