>>20 Sorry again for the delay on the transfer. As far as content vis-a-vis global rules goes, /zoo/ material has only two stipulations: It's legal to possess, share, and view it in the US except for citizens of Oregon. You should consider putting an "Oregonians GTFO" disclaimer in your board header, rules, or FAQ. The other is that US Federal law bans media showing animals being physically injured under the so-called "animal crush" law. So you can't allow things where an animal is being tortured, is bleeding, is obviously being physically harmed in some other way, etc. This law does not prohibit depicting non-injuring sexual acts, so the vast majority of /zoo/ content is just fine. Good luck, have fun. [This being the law of Acid]

As time went on Chai gave the board to Cloaca, who being mostly absent gave the board to me. His sole volunteer. I became a volunteer here because I wished to learn the ropes of moderation under Chai, and a board which was small and thus easy with laid back users seemed the best place as opposed to diving in the deep end and asking to vol on /b/ where I would undoubtedly make mistakes. And so I asked for him to vol me. And when he left I found myself with no teacher a mere month after joining up. I have never had any intrest in zoophilia to be clear. But I was here. And I had a community to watch out for, regardless of how I personally felt about their proclivities, and so I stuck around and kept out the cp and the spam and blank posts and bad links. And when the day came that Cloaca (who this board was made for as a gift) abandoned it to me. I drank an entire bottle of whiskey and tried to forget any of this had occured. This strategem did however fail me. And the next day with a mighty hangover I awoke to being the Board Owner of /zoo/. And Lo things were good for the community. I defended off political underhanded attacks from other BOs on the IRC, and the site meta thread, and on /v/s meta thread even. And things went okay. But behind the scenes trouble brewed. To be continued

>>>/lit/23 Before leaving /zoo/ Chai sought me out on one of the two boards I ran (the other being >>>/k/) And beibg friendly made himself useful, and all the teaching he neglected here he gave in a half assed manner there. Things were good. I was learning how to run a board properly, and also how to moderate with a velvet glove. But as hinted in the last post. Things took a dire turn. He asked that /lit/ change from a board about reading books to one about both reading and writing. This raised no alarms for me and I allowed it, hey after all it could to bring in more traffic right? Meanwhile unbeknownst to me a man in texas was arrested for running a website about pedophile stories. (it later turned out he was also posting cp and thats why he was arrested but that part didnt come out til later) Acid heard of this, and not wishing to run afoul of the law changed Global Rule 2 to include any written depictions of rape of a minor. This caused a lot of debate in meta threads and amongst the admins, as text is clearly protected under the first amendment. Chai had always been a needle in the admins side, and seized on this opportunity to create a stir. Having allowed written stories on /lit/ he posted a story of a child being raped, and then went on the sites meta thread saying that acid was now going to ban the poor writer who didnt know of this rule. I had already banned the post for reasons of personal taste. But Acid knowing none of this (and learning the full story of what happened in texas) changed Global Rule 2 again. Thus leaving me with nothing to point to for why I banned the story. Not wishing to antagonize chai I reposted his story for him, and apologized. Things had become tense between us as I saw his mask slip. He argued that he only championed free speech, but he only ever cared about free speech for pedos. I assumed there was a team of globals checking post histories and thus aware of everything occuring, but as it turned out only I knew all these connections. To prove my point I went on /b/ and posted a sex story written in first person of me raping Chai and his only volunteer Kazu. I was of course banned and the post removed. And no reason was given. My point had been made. He did not care for free speech but only pedos. Then a month later /b/ was raided by herdniggers. An annoying group of /cow/ and /intl/ who posted cp and tried to bring down websites. Chai desperate for help (even though he never tried banning them) decided to make me a volunteer on /b/ (without asking me if I wanted it) and then went to sleep. I stayed up all night long until the sun rose fighting the invaders, and as Chai woke up. He fired me, insulted me for "naivete" and claimed that spam waves and pedos could not be fought. Then he transferred the boards he owned to an anon who showed up out of nowhere and left the site forever. (or so I believed for a week until checking the post history of chais last post on /lit/ showed me that silvia used the same bypass and IP as Chai. And the pieces fell into place for me again. I still assumed someone else was also investigating and keeping track of these things. Oh how wrong I was. I had nothing to prove to anyone. And furious after learning his true colors I stopped using the site for a month. When I came back /b/ had become a pedo friendly and herdnigger friendly board. My favorite board on this site was destroyed. every thread infested and soon deleted to make room for more pedoshit. What could I do? Betrayed and alone. I was merely one anon. There was nothing to be done. So I swore revenge and began a 2 year campaign to get rid of chai/silvia and cleanse the entire site of their vile faggotry. I had no hope of success, and everyone who learned of my quest called it a fools errand. They were all wrong. Okay for real I need to go make dinner but trust me this is the only way to explain rules 4 and 7 which are basically the same rule, and I am going somewhere with this, and you do need all this backstory to understand. To be continued

And so began the crusade. First of all I made a rule on all my boards (No pedoshit) which was vague and impossible to find an edge case around. This was necessary because as I had seen with global rule 2 the pedos would rules lawyer around any rule no matter how much it added text to add more definitions. So I went the other way and made a vague catchall rule I could apply as I saw fit. It worked perfectly to restore /lit/ and /k/. Then it was time for revenge. Step one was getting allies. Kazu never liked Chai and was complaining about the pedos on /v/s meta thread. Perfect place to start. I started by stalking him around the entire website. Learning who he was and what he liked. He was a homosexual with a fondness for mlp. I cant say I ever watched that watch, so there was only one in. Chai created and gave kaz the board >>>/cb/ a gay board. I just needed to get him alone somewhere private and this was a perfect opportunity. I made a element thread ostensibly for the purpose of meeting up and fucking, soon kaz created a room for the board on element, and I got to speak to him privately offsite. Convincing him to join the crusade was easy (though it did end with me voling on his gay board and running his gay chat) From there we began visiting the IRC and talking ti admins. Their stance was as long as no laws are broken they didnt give a shit. A fair point. But it also gave me an in. They did care about illegal activity. So me and kazu began screenshotting every post chai made. We followed him around all over the site to demoralize him and keep him contained. Phase one was hard and took 12 months but eventually we had the evidence we needed that he had a cp sharing thread and was grooming at least two underage users. This was enough to get Chai kicked as BO. And here my plan took an unexpected turn. I had planned to install kaz as BO of /b/ but right before we got silvia kicked he went crazy and deleted a bunch of boards. He was fired as a global mod and the admins never really trusted him again. So he was out as a choice for BO. That left me. I didnt want it, but it was too good an opportunity to pass up. Technically I was the last vol chai had on /b/ still hanging around and so had first dibs on the board. I took it. And so for the first time in a year /zoo/ and /b/ had the same BO again. Step 2 was purging the pedos. Me and kaz grabbed a couple homos from his chat and then ruthlessly purged anything even slightly pedophilic from /b/. They resisted with spam for a good 6 months. But our determination was unshakeable. I took the board in april and by July noticed the daily spam we fought was falling off. I declared VB day. or victory on /b/ day and celebrated. We didnt need so many vols anymore so we fired everyone but me and kaz. By october we had a clean board and the pedos had left to never come back. They tried spamming here in retaliation and so local rules 4 and 7 were created (both rules amount to no herdnigs or pedos). I had already made rule 5 a while back (it was originally rule 4) so that brings us to rule 6. Chai had an unofficial rule that scat had to be spoilered here but it wasnt on the list. I held a vote on our meta thread to decide if itd become an official rule or whether id stop spoilering all those posts for anon. The vote passed 4 to 0. And so local rule 6 was born. A month later I made a custom spoiler while rewatching the sopranoes. Another anon customized it and made a better spoiler you can still see today here. and thats all our rules and why they were made. What they really mean and how I use them. Rules 1 and 2 plus acids rule are for legal reasons. Without following those the website as a whole is vulnerable. And there has been 1 documentary and 2 news reports talking about 8moe and all of them just to mention this board (also a youtuber once) they all claim what we have here is illegal, but it isnt as long as we follow these rules. We have nothing to fear and will be up til the end of time. This I swear to you anons. I will keep alive thise board out of spite for chais betrayal. I will keep the dream alive he sold me about free speech even if he betrayed it and was a hypocrite. I will show him that it doesnt need to be a lie. I do this for the same reason I have done everything. Spite. So theres the whole (though heavily summarized) story of this board and me. I will never understand you guys. I wish you wouldnt fuck animals, and I will always be your advocate and defender. I love you crazy bastards. And at the end of the day this is YOUR board. Not mine. I work for you. So if you ever have any more questions or suggestions feel free to speak em. Anyway. Have a great day and God bless you all.

Yeah I might be autistic. Anyway someone asked.

Okay, that seems to explain everything. The fuckin' struggle just to watch some good pussy in piece... I salute your spiteful autistic Kampf/Jihad against the pedos. Forever may this board be free of such horror. Obligatory fuck mods/jannies. <3

Fascinating! & worth the time you put into writing it. some may not care, but for sure others do. I enjoyed the read. Understanding "the why" helps some people follow protocol better, so they don't think its all just arbitrary. also, <3 the "i disagree with what you [fuck] but will fight... for your right to [post about it]" (..as long as it is generally legal, and thus doesn't threaten the entire site) vibe.. aka your support of FREE SPEECH <3 >>7751 >anime koresh.png lol nice Waco reference

>>7778 ty anon. I was worried it was too blog posty. As an addendum. Kaz was my first real friend on this site. But he sadly left for zzzchan eventually. He hasn't spoken to me since which kinda sucks. I miss him. But he loved my little pony, and so out of love for my friend basically I have always had a soft spot for mlp fans. I've never watched the show and have no interest, but he told me that the fans are persecuted basically everywhere. Halfchan allows them a board but bans them everywhere else, and furthermore I once met an anon from there who said they don't allow porn or even lewd posting. The poor guy was desperate to just post some cartoon porn. I felt awful for him, and since then have always allowed pony porn here. And when a migration from halfchan happened and Pony fans made a board here I've made a special effort to check in and help them in any way I can. I know some of my anons here don't like the show and wonder why I tolerate them and that's the reason. Plus I have always rooted for the underdog. It all comes down to something I said to Kaz once that I really believe is true and have always tried to live by. "all anon has is anon, no one is going to save us but each other. No one else gives a shit. So we have to watch out for each other" I hope that all this helps to explain why I do what I do.
