47chan Timeline

Nov 23, 2009 - ch !X0H.tf2EHU starts 47chan as an imageboard for Norwegian users, hence "47", Norway's dial code. Also happened to be the number of the internet rule which states that the pool is always closed. A default install of Kusaba X is put in place with a few boards on shared hosting.

Around Dec 5, 2009 - ch realizes that the Norwegian imageboard community is a bunch of douchebags. The few posters were hostile. Kusaba X turns out to be shit, besides, every other *chan uses it so it wasn't special or unique. At this point 47chan became a simple filesharing website with a buggy homemade PHP script. Later on an imageboard was set up in its place, but it had no purpose.

Jan 02, 2010 - 888chan dies, taking its /habbo/ board with it. A replacement was not yet in existence, 47chan would later take this role into its own hands.

Feb 21, 2010 - A few edits to the PHP files, and 47chan is reborn with a Habbo raiding board on a VPS. The Nigra Street Irregulars are informed. Posts quickly build up on /b/ and /habbo/.

Feb 24, 2010 - Some guy posts a thread on /habbo/ calling to arms. The raid was not announced anywhere outside the Nigra Street Irregulars.

Feb 26, 2010 - Raid starts. A thread was posted on 4chan /b/ at the same time. Fabulous results ensured. The result was not duplicatable in the future. First and last good mini raid organized on 47chan.

Apr 20, 2010 - 4/20 raid. Modfags banned every nigra. Most epic fail ever?

July 12, 2010 - First successful 7/12 raid organized by 47chan. Numbers surpass '08 and '09 raids. IRC breaks all past raid records with 266 users at peak.
