I'd never have given a shit or come to a place like this if mootykins didn't get pressured by his tumblr girlfriend to start censoring 4chan of all places over it.
Because if not for that, it was things I already knew and thought everyone else who didn't know it was too stupid to interact with.
Same thing here.
I never even spent any time on 4chan other than reading some particularly absurd threads for entertainment value.
But the thing that really got my attention in regards to GG was, "wait, they're censoring 4chan? Seriously?"
For me it was /b/ specifically getting censored. Places like /v/ were for loser virgins and I enjoyed mods fucking with them. It even showed me Katawa Shoujo back in the day because /ksv/ got run off the board and settled into /ksb/ for a long time.
But when their little FiveGuys nonsense started getting threads on /b/ deleted, that aroused my suspicion.
I wonder where he’s at these days. For that matter, I wonder where she is. I’m sure they’re not together
They didn't last long after he left, if not before that. Last I heard about him he was suspected as being one of the sources of a huge Google leak.
But he always wanted to disappear from being a front facing figure after years of being a Devil of the Internet, so I think most people just let him fade into history. With his coding skills he will never really be at a loss for work.
