First off, ignore PaperLuigi. Some people buy into this whole thing about 4chan being some sort of secret society. It's not, and the people who think it is probably learned everything they think they know about the site from Encyclopaedia Dramatica. Also, 4chan != /b/.

With that out of the way, I'd guess your problem is that your current IP was used by the proxy service someone else tried to use to evade a ban. Are you by chance on a satellite Internet connection? If so, you'll see this a lot if you try to browse 4chan. Some IPs won't be banned, others will, usually for varying reasons.

Note that you won't be able to appeal this ban, even though it is by all means wrongful. 4chan isn't a big deal, so don't worry about it. And while it's not entirely a porn site, it does have some boards devoted to the stuff.

It's for the better, trust me. Anyone who goes there expecting "meme jokes" has no idea what they're in for. 4chan is known as the "******* of the internet" for a reason.

Depends on the board.

Meh, /b/ and /v/ are the only boards that don't hate memes.

Alright, I was kidding: Going on 4chan is a life-enriching experience which will make you an all-around better person. You will become more tolerant towards minorities, appreciative of women as equal members of society, and respectful towards those whose viewpoints differ from your own.

You have obviously only gone to /b/ and /v/. But 4chan is pretty gay. Mind you I have a window of it open right now, but I wouldn't say you're missing much. Just read a book.

I've considered finally dipping my toes into 4chan recently, but nothing yet.

Also, props to WR for being the first person I've ever seen to calmly and rationally explain the site.

I hate it when people describe going to 4chan to be anymore than going to a website. just go to it if you want to. Here, I'll make it easy. http://www.4chan.org

What is this, the 4chan Defense Force?

4chan may have some sections that aren't completely morally reprehensible, but the site is still the sum of its parts. I know most of you aren't math majors, but a huge negative number is still negative when you add a small positive.

If that's how you guys spend your time that's completely fine, birds of a feather and all that, but don't try to paint it as something its not. Just enjoy your wallpapers, your torrents, your photography, and your anime porn.

Well, that's all I ever use the internet for, anyway.

What are you waiting for then? Get your tissues, put on your Guy Fawkes mask and join in on the lulz.

I'm still of the opinion that 4chan isn't even really a thing. Since all the content is user created/submitted, the website itself doesn't really do or create anything.

I thought this was going to be some reminiscent thread where people were going to recall the first time they went to 4chan.

Well, it can certainly become one.
