      Oh no, it doesn't. 4chan can rot in hell and the world would be better off with the entire site banned and erased from the collective memory. It's just that was the policy rationale at the time. The gore and snuff was far from endless. You'd get maybe 40-50 posts like that max a day, but people would post hundreds of furry pics on loop spamming all the sub forums.

          It wasn't about getting a rise out of people it was that you would have to wade through pages and pages of unique furry porn (and the only real rule of /b/ is no reposts) to get to anything that wasn't furry porn. I was a dead-eyed teenage lurker at one point, and that was what people were complaining about. There was always homoerotic material on /b/, it's just that the amount of unique furry art made spamming it easy.

          The eventual policy itself (an invisible only searchable community called /trash/) is indicative of the homophobia with the admin, but the complaints were almost entirely "I have to scroll through pages of 'trash' to get to any interesting content, this is some fucking bullshit."

          I'm not going to contest this anymore though, as those years were some of the worst of my life and I'd rather not think about them anymore. 4chan is a homophobic hellhole, but thinking that you can 'shock them' with furry porn is misunderstanding the posting mindset. The real way to piss them off is to overwhelm them with content they consider 'boring'.
