| But this power to raise an army was too valuable to get rid of. Everyone had to be shuttled off to a second imageboard so they could keep incubating their personal army in a less constrained social setting. It was just so convenient that various Raspberry Heaven and ex-4chan developers had spent 03-06 forking, modifying & cloning the software that powered 4chan. These parallel development efforts gave rise to a whole ecosystem of culturally connected imageboards & IRC rooms surrounding the original team. When everyone realized this meant Anon could have a dedicated raids forum on a different imageboard - **still within the community, but free of Moot & his Nero-like obsessions** - it was an easy sell. So Anonymous declared itself a Sovereign Nation and liberated itself from the confines of 4chan. Now Anons could go anywhere, and still remain culturally Anonymous. For this, Anons are sometimes known as **"The Jews of the Internet." | But this power to raise an army was too valuable to get rid of.
