I followed the Q posts from the start. I observed 4chan, 8chan and then 8kun but I didn't post much there. Anyway, a question arose in my mind: it seems to me that 8kun was created solely for the purpose of allowing Q to post securely. OK, everyone else can post but it was created principally for Q.
So anyone familiar with servers can probably answer this:
What would be the cost of the approx. 6 month operation to set up a secure server for 8kun? I would think that it would be quite significant in the realm of tens of thousands of dollars - maybe hundreds?
That being the case, what special sort of LARP would spend that sort of money for a joke or distraction?
What I'm suggesting is that this could be another compelling proof that the Q operation was real, seriously expensive and not some nerd in a basement. Am I right?
8 Chan or 8 kun is probably not expensive to set up.
The cost would come once you get a lot page views and users. Scaling up your bandwidth/server costs would be the issue.
8kun came about because the owners of 8chan were feuding with the creator of 8 Chan.
When they bought it he became their employee.
But he wanted out.
