Rules 1 & 2 only apply to raids.

Newfag.

A common misconception, made by 'middleagedfags'. After the great Habbo raids of 07, the rules were changed by some to cover the raids. However, the true oldfags know that rules 1/2 cover any mentioning of it at all, not just raids.

Good read

4chan influences the world more than you'd think in a good way.

This made me laugh, from the user comments below:

The fact they are anonymous tells me that they are cowards. It really easy to be offensive when you can hide in your mums house.

Haha!

I too had a good laugh at that.
God Bless "The Lizard" for being brave and not hiding behind a monitor like so many others.

My friend was asking me what 4chan was earlier and lo and behold, the BBC had an article on it.

Quite a fair article from the BBC and reasonably accurate, unlike some of their other "technology" articles.

Hey, The Lizard might be his given name...

Probably the only 4chan quote I know. The whole site should be nuked.

4chan controls the internet.

I love this, the guy who wrote it clearly reads 4Chan himself and i'd guess regularly i hope its not taken him too long to think this story might get him some hits.

it's hardly "in depth" though is it? there's a bit of a buzz about 4chan atm and he's just jumping on the bandwagon.

Quite an even handed, well written piece. Well done BBC for not going for the LULZ

I agree, it was a good read.
Some funny comments at the bottom though.

Never been to 4chan before, the layout gives me a headache, what a lot of crap.
