Lol. And what kind of people are on Soyjak, is that site more or less degenerated?
The only reason I could see to fork 4chan would be to be even more degenerate. So I guess that's a safe bet.
I'm ootl but I thought 8chan was the fork, and is more degenerate
There are lots of 4chan forks, which is itself a fork of iichan.
They'll be fine, m00t will come back and remake the site good.

After he sold the site he got a job at Google.
