8chan started up because the mods over at 4chan were becoming too tyrannical for some peoples liking. Now that the last few mass shooters have posted their manifestos on 8chan, 8chan is under the microscope. The question that I have to ask now is, what if they come for newtotse? Not that we have to worry about it with how small we are currently, but Totse was always getting picked on by the feds to take shit down and to JC Stanton and Jeffs credit, they held out for a long long time.

The only ONE thing that crossed the line with Jeff was the whole "Totse Army" thing because people were starting to commit anarchy in the name of Totse, while, while on the surface seems fun, it really would have been bad news for the site if Jeff had allowed it to continue. Totse had a team of moderators that noticeably did things, so Jeff could easily tell the feds "Yeah, I noticed that, we're putting a stop to it" and it was believable, where as 8chan has no moderation. They can't, nor do they even try to, keep shit like that to a minimal, plus channers are angsty pre-teens so who knows what's real and what's not
