It's called a slide and/or shitting in the bread.
Most likely the timing was coordinated with someone else or perhaps even the same person taking screen shots for a "journalistic" hit piece on how insane everyone here is. I'd also wager that the upvotes and comment streams of agreement on his posts are simply dup accounts or other people in on the plan to slide the board.
This happened all the time in the chans. Basically it was a good indication people were over the target (ie a real threat). Information warfare is real folks. This is really a mild event. On the chans there was a constant barrage cycling through posting overtly racist images/ copy pasta, really sick pornography (and worse stuff that mods had to remove immediately), grotesque injuries / recent deaths, and a few other copy pasta things.
You know, I never fucked with the chans. I don't know if I believe you're 100% accurate (as I think of the bread coming from the crumbs / drops) but honestly, wtf do I know? I'm late to this particular game. Have an updoot.
Is this your "special" version of being a grammar nazi?
I'm quite aware of the differences on this forum and the chans (specifically the various q boards).
What happened is literally the same as shitting the bread. Important topics of discussion were drowned out by useless posts that provided no sauce. People looking to the site to check it out will see the garbage/ crazy posts and leave. Same thing happened on chans, same thing happens here.
Maybe you should pay more attention by the way. There are a number of instances on this site where chan terminology persists. If the minor differences in how the chans work verses how this site works bothers you, perhaps you should call out every instance.
You special -- "Hey yuze guyz this isn't the same as the chans, so don't chan here."
Not to say I ever have a problem with your posts, but in this case you did not address a legitimate argument and instead relied on your "credentials" to do the speaking for you.

I remember slides on /pol were constant. I told him on one of his post that this isn’t 4chan

Credentials do not an argument make.

Also folks, take note of the primary people involved and supporting the board slide.
You board sliders are glowing (radioactive for the non chan crowd).
