| |
| '''#furret''' is a channel that has been through a few incarnations throughout its life. Founded by '''[[User:Bui|Bui]]''', #furret originally served as a place for a handful of [https://boards.4chan.org/vp/ /vp/]'s users, mainly tripfags or shitposters ''at the time'', to hang out. However, those times have certainly passed, and now #furret is just a channel mostly full of bots, with very few of its previous users anywhere to be seen.

| == History ==
| |
|
| |
| In late 2011, [[User:Mydog|Duffil]] created #Freaks, the first channel the small community had. It was a calm and peaceful channel for all /vp/ and ironic shitposting discussion, with a fair amount of regular users at the time. Over time, Duffil became more inactive, eventually to the point where he never came back. #Freaks didn't have any ops, so the lack of moderation caused some problems for the channel and its users.
| |
|
| |
| This was when Bui created the first instance of #furret. Most of #Freaks' users had migrated, and soon enough, #Freaks died. #furret became more popular over time, attracting many users from /vp/ in the process.
| |
|
| |
| ''<insert more irrelevant/boring 2011 history here>''
| |
|
| |
| Sometime in 2012, Bui and the #furret userbase migrated to [[:/b/|#/b/]] and #Eevee, whose founders were [[User:Kazisho|Kazisho]] and Kaytee, respectively. Later on the year, Bui made #furret restricted, and it was pretty much empty since barely anyone had ops anymore, however it was used as sort of a "test" channel for #/b/.
| |
|
| |
| In April 2014, when 4chan got hacked, it was revealed that Kazisho is a 4chan janitor. #/b/'s users protested in rage and unacceptableness, so Bui recreated #furret, and everyone reunited there.
| |
|
| |

| |
| == Moderation ==
| |
|
| |
| The channel is light on moderation, as was the case with #Freaks and #/b/. Pretty much any sort of discussion or content that isn't non-objectively disgusting is permitted, but ops can still kick/ban for any reason they see fit. You won't get banned for being a newfag, so don't let that scare you off from joining! There aren't any rules, so to speak.
