4chan invades epilepsy forum, hurts a bunch of people.

Remember that voice in your head when you were twelve or thirteen that said 'Okay, point of no return, stop, or you're NOT going to like the consequences.'
Nowadays it seems like less and less people have that voice.

Apparently all those dumbass underage cunts at 4chan, or more likely /b/, have 'raided' some forum for epileptics and left a large flashing GIF all over the place.

When will this shit stop? I mean, it's not exactly the gleaming gem of internet phemomena, but surely there's some way to moderate these bastards, right? I remember thinking
'Oh 4chan, you're so misunderstood' and proceeded to advocate it, but no, not this time. fuck their meme's, fuck the shitload of fuck that is /b/, and fuck the whole 'Anonymous is legion' concept as a whole, sure they have project chanology, which is pretty cool and they are doing some good there, but this is fucking ridiculous.

Thoughts?

I have returned from my abcence and am immediately flung into a state of disgust.
I usually stay well away from 4chan, but because I found it a little... immature and unstructured. But this is like the internet version of torturing a kitten.

May I ask as to where you found this information?

call me Leto. I really want my name changed, it's kind of a Rich the Intern situation.

'Okay, point of no return, stop, or you're NOT going to like the consequences.'
The reason why this is happening is because theres a large amount of people doing it, forming a mob mentality. And if you're 12 or 13, you've probably just seen Fight Club, and you think it's cool to be a pessimistic asshole.

the cancer has now killed /b/, not that it was a huge loss

Say only 5% of 4chans users are complete morons (only 5%? :P), that's a shit load of people who are willing to harass others. As usual in life it's the minority that fuck things up for the majority.

All in all, 4chan is funny for the odd lulz but it's out-weighed by complete fail.

Eh, the internet is full of dicks.

Live with it, and stop unwittingly giving them handjobs.

Still, that IS pretty low.

Uhh, sorry to sound ignorant, but what is 4chan?

Anyway, even if I do not know what it is, doing that type of thing is a really bastard-assly thing to do.

Hell, this is when your Conscience needs a gorram tazer gun...

Things like 4chan do indeed suck, but as much as I disagree with this if it's true...

An epilepsy forum? Seriously? Does such a thing exist...?

Encyclopaedia Dramatica has some issues as well I reckon. Some lulz but again, undermined by the level of phail.

The internet shouldn't need to be moderated, because of what it is, that also makes such possible moderating pretty difficult. I'd say any possible forums or whatever that may be susceptible to wankers like that, need more secure entry methods as a member, like here (I think it's here) where you're not a registered member able to post until the mods let you. They can then ban any new members like that anyway, and here's only so much you can do to a forum by posting spam or whatever.

I don't care how sadistic this may seem... but that's so fucking priceless I wish I would have come up with it. Leaving flashes on an epileptics forum... whahaha.

Question, did anyone die from this?

From what I heard, no, but apparently 1000's of people were fucked up, but that might be bad memory.

Also, 711chan was involved. big surprise.

2ch was the original, a large japanese forum. 4chan ripped off of that, and all the other are basically either splinter factions of the same crap or spin offs.

One could wonder what you're doing on the internet or behind a computer screen for that matter, if you're such a heavy epileptic that you spasm out at the first sign of something flashy. The internet is riddled with flashy pictures at random locations.

... which is why you'd attend a forum for epileptics, so you could have a safe haven away from the flashing and strobing and boobies of the rest of the internets.
