/b/
/b/ is the "random" board, and the lowest pit of evil and chaos in the reaches of eternal damnation of the internet. On 4chan, /b/ is the most popular board of all - primarily since, like every other part of the internet, users don't need any logic or sense at all to "contribute" to it. It also breaks all the boundaries of NSFW and if you were to be caught at work browsing /b/'s porno related threads, you'd not only get fired but probably also get arrested. View at your own risk.
But since /k/, /co/, /d/, and /tg/ were created, all the oldfags of /b/ left after noticing that the board had dropped to a level of shit that was much lower than their standards. /b/ is now plagued with newfagism and porn. Not unlike /a/.
Rumors persist that /v/ has become the new /b/, plagued by butthurt and ripe for the troll-reaping. Due to constantly going off topic, posting NSFW pics and now Humanity Fuck Yeah threads on /tg/, it wouldn't be surprising if we followed in /v/'s footsteps. Halt the Hun - contribute today!
Nostalgia Filter
Okay, time to rip off the Nostalgia Filter. /b/ has not descended into a massive level of shit, it's everyone who has left it that has matured. The immature, disgusting and horrible humor of /b/ has been there from the beginning and now that you've matured you can see it for what it is. Those who complain about new members ruining /b/ have posted the exact same things while they were younger.
