The most notable of which being "The 4chan moderation team reserves the right to revoke access and remove content for any reason without notice."
I noticed something fishy starting a few weeks ago. I kept getting 3 day bans, but with no reason listed and/or no link to the offending post.
So basically I was being banned because the mods wanted to ban me. This turned into a permanent ban, I presume because of the updated rules that I wasn't aware of.
You are not allowed to DISCUSS anything that violates US law. I was banned for mentioning that I was worried my neighbours are abusing their kid.
Permanently banned from 4Chan for this. I tried to appeal it but it was rejected.
Always saw 4Chan as a freedom of speech platform but looks like things are changing very quickly.
This + 15min posting delay is what's causing massive decline in 4chan's userbase recently, but I don't think that alternatives would grow as a result. The demography is changing and the internet is getting more and more centralized, so unfortunately imageboards and other independent platforms are dying.
So do you think people will just spend less time on the internet?
