"Dancing Swede"

• To be researched: Events spanning from July 2021 to July 2022 Can (You) help us?

January '22

Anti‑Kuz propaganda during the Second Soyvil War

• January 2 - GETs 37999999 and 38000000 on 4chan's /jp/ board, stolen by soyteens.
• January 5 - The 4000000 GET on 4chan's /pw/ board is stolen by a broccoli‑head.
• January 15 - The post database is lost after Soot's server provider is hit with CSAM complaints, after a Turkish teenage Discord user named Goth spammed the site with an edited version of the Dancing Swede video, which contained highly illegal and extremely disturbing content. Post counts on /soy/ are rolled back more than a month; even post no. 222222 is given a second chance.
• January 23 - The Party raided r/inceltear. This resulted in a redditor trying to DDoS "incels.is" as well as the Party; however, images previously posted on his Reddit account revealed his Instagram name, which caused him to be doxed, and the Party forced him to write an apology letter.
• January 25 - Kuz leaked emails between him and soot wherein Soot offered to sell the Party to Kuz. However, this thread turned out to be a troll. Soot did actually try to sell the site to Kuz, but after things cleared up in his personal life he changed his mind, with Kuz apparently making this thread just for some (You)'s after he knew the deal fell through. The deal was for $600 in Bitcoin in return for ownership of soyjak.party and a backup of the site on the day of transfer, effectively giving Kuz complete control over the site. Kuz later made another thread criticizing Soot for being rude to him; Soot apologized but said that Kuz's response to the failed deal was "immature". Among the leaked emails were multiple emails to Soot which Soot answered that contained requests for IPs of posters on the Party, as well as requests for thread deletions for "legal issues". Whether Soot accepted these requests is unknown.
• January 26 - /soy/ surpasses 300000 posts.
• January 30 - 'Teens make a jak canvas together.
• January–February - Because Soot is busy with university, the Sharty is hit by a spam wave of illegal material without precedent that even ends spilling over to this very wiki—worse than swearing, worse than calling names. This event is the most likely reason for Soot's eventual selling of the 'arty and is thought by many to be the darkest period in the site's history.

February '22

The Sharty Crisis of 2022

• February 4 - Kuz makes a post on buying a video‑sharing site (Vidlii) for 10 k in Bitcoin. A raid on 4chan's /his/ – "History and Humanities" board wipes 8 ½ pages from the catalog, and the mods have to restore threads from the archives to repopulate the board.
• February 5 - GET 1111111 on 4chan's /t/ is stolen.
• February 7 - A soyteen almost gets expelled for soy‑posting at school.
• February 5 - Kuz is accused of spamming CP the same day he shills his website; Kuz posts on the thread claiming it wasn't him (thread only archived up to eight minutes after posting).
• February 13 - GETs 3999999 and 4000000 stolen on 4chan's /p/ board.
• February 21 - A rogue janny, protesting "Lolkek's deletion of the Booru" (which later turned out to be false), deleted many threads (including the sticky^{[What sticky, though?]}) and permabanned some users. Lolkek and another mod responded by banning him and other users who mentioned him, deleting more threads, and posting several obnoxious tranime images. After this happened, Kuz officially decided to declare war on Soyjak.party within the Kolyma Central Committee at 5:10 PM EST and later began work on "soyak.party" (Kuz can't into original names), the self‑proclaimed successor to the Party, which would be without mods, reCAPTCHA, Tor blocks, or CP. Kuz also attempted to ally with various soyjak‑related Discord servers. After Soot leaked DMs between him and Kuz where Kuz threatened to "ENACT THE PLAN TO DESTROY THE PARTY," many party members went there to mock him. Kuz then leaked their IPs in retaliation, causing more 'jakkers to bombard his website. Kuz subsequently shut the site down, but another user claimed he was responsible for the shutdown by "exploiting flaws" in the site, though the pro‑Kuz camp denied this. The soyteen spammed another site using the software, Gurochan, but failed to replicate it, likely proving that Kuz shut it down. Kuz also redirected the site to a blogpost he made about health. 'P was spammed on Soyak.party, some speculate by Kuz's own men as a pretext for the war. They also spammed his proxy list, and Kuz retaliated by spamming the wiki and flooding /soy/, though almost all the spam on both sides was cleaned up within minutes due to the war's public nature.
• February 22 - Soot does a Q&A after being out of town the last few days.
• February 24 - Russo-Ukrainian War
• February 26 - After hours of Kuz‑related spam and severe wiki vandalism, Soot and multiple mods finally broke and accused a random user of being Kuz. The ensuing chaos marked the single largest Kuz‑related sperg‑out since the Party began.
• February–March - Jackbox raids, Pixelplanet and Flockmod are started.

March '22

i'm literally nojak, ama

• March 2 - Jonathan from the Oreo Review Show (yes, THE nojak) made an AMA thread on /soy/. Initially, he refused to post proof that it was him, later citing that a "message board built around the foundation of anonymity loses its shit that someone won't post concrete proof of their identity." After extensive questioning by soyteens, Nojak posted proof that it was him by screenshotting his channel dashboard. He was not using a trip, so it's almost impossible to tell if any of the nojaks are the real deal thoughever. The thread eventually devolved into a brutal soy‑duel.
• March 6 - Earliest known appearance of Sidson is posted on Xitter.^{[it just is, ok?]}
• March 12 - 22222222 GET on /gif/.
• March 23 - /soy/ surpasses 400000 posts.
• March 30 - Earliest known appearance of Notejak is posted on /soy/.^{[it just is, ok?]} The 68000000 GET on 4chan's /r9k/ board is an anti‑incel truth‑nuke.
• March 31 - All the earliest soyjaks are uploaded to the new booru on this date.

April '22

• April 1 - A temporary word‑filter is added for April Fool's. The following words were filtered: soy = onions' (in reference to the word filter on 4chan), gem = coal, Sharty = 4channel.org/qa/ (in reference to the now‑deleted 4chan board), bbc = bbcoal, bwc = bwchud, remilia = axe wound (in reference to a tripfag).
• April 5 - /soy/ surpasses 444444 posts.
• April 6 - Earliest known appearance of Patriotjak is posted on the 'ru.
• April 20 - Earliest known appearance of Goopjak is posted on the 'ru.
• April 21 - /soy/ surpasses 500000 posts.
• April 27 - "Impjak Mars Adventure" thread is made.

May '22

• May 1 - A Zelligfag sends a message to the creator of Ongezellig under Soot's email asking to do a Q&A.
• May 8 - /soy/ surpasses 555555 posts.
• May 27 - A BBC poster gets snitched on by a user to Soot and is then banned with the message "(discord tranny bbc bullshit will never be sharty culture, kys)".
• May 29 - A janny under the name "m.mod" deletes a TND thread; another janny replies in the thread saying they aren't sure who did it, then later goes schizo and writes, "Thanks to whichever faggot mod decided it would be funny to ruin my credibility. Got your IP and I'll be emailing Soot."

June '22

• June 7 - The Blotter is updated to announce that Soot will be doing a Q&A at 1800 UTC.
• June 11 - The 69000000 GET on 4chan's /r9k/ board is achieved by some gemmy NAS.
• June 20 - All boards on bstall.org get raided (except /flash/), with /hangout/ hit the hardest. This is easy to do because of the extremely slow traffic and the small number of boards. The creator of bStall then proceeds to seethe about it on /raid/.
• June 24 - An actual 30‑year‑old grown man makes a thread honoring the Sharty by drinking Sproke.

July '22

Soot's retirement post after The Great Purchase

• July 4 - The Good Boy Quest adventure thread is created.
• July 13 - Kuz makes his account on Kiwifarms.
• July 14 - /soy/ surpasses 777777 posts.
• July 15 - It is made official that Soot sold soyjak.party and booru.soy to Kuz.
• July 17 - Soot announces his retirement from the Party. Kuz does his first Q&A as the owner of the site. Kuz "apologizes" for leaking (presumably) jakkers' IPs after trying to leak CP posters' IPs. New janitor applications open for the next 24 hours.
• July 18 - /soy/ surpasses 800000 posts.
• July 19 - The Jackbox revival begins. Kuz does a small unofficial Q&A, answering a few user questions.
• July 23 - Kuz makes a thread asking for suggestions on fixing the site. The Blotter is updated with: "Meta/Drama threads are no longer allowed on /soy/. Discussion of kuz/janitors/moderation and other meta topics should be posted on /suggest/ for the time being.". The thought‑to‑be‑lost Chud and Soy‑Boy Bingo jaks are found. The Booru is officially transferred to Kuz.
• July 24 - "Janitors have been informed to delete BBC spam on /soy/; you can, however, still post it on other boards."
• July 26 - The Blotter is updated with: "/webm/ and /muv/ have been returned, and the new rules have been officialized on the rules page. List of changes: kuz's memo".
• July 28 - The main page of soyjak.party is updated.

August '22

• August 2 - A "nigger weed general" thread is made.
• August 3 - "Good Boy Quest #2" is made. Facebook‑style reaction buttons are added. The buttons input the following: "gem", "coal", "YWNBAW", "KYS", "though", and "KUUUUUUUUUUZ." All boards also change from 40 pages to 10 pages (10 threads per page). Both changes are incredibly unpopular.
• August 4 - Reaction buttons are removed and /soy/ gets 40 pages again; all other boards remain at 10 pages. Kuz stated in his August 24 livestream that the buttons were removed because people were only using the buttons.
• August 5 - The new official /muv/ Minecraft server is released.
• August 7 - All 14 568 Soot‑era bans were forgiven.
• August 8 - /incel/ - Internet Celebrities is added. /soy/ surpasses 888888 posts.
• August 11 - /soy/ surpasses 900000 posts. GET 666666 is obtained.
• August 12 - A teen steals the 6666666th GET on /aco/.
• August 13 - The Blotter is updated with: "Several ongoing DDoS attacks may result in spotty uptime until Monday.".
• August 14 - Kuz announces that for the next 24 hours, mods will delete CP, porn, and gore/shit spam—but nothing else. The Ban page is also brought back and all previous bans have been removed, along with a revamped janitor team. The Party wiped all but one thread out of the /drug/ board on Lainchan and stole the 11111 GET. The one stoner online at the time had a meltdown about it. The archived threads were later manually reverted, but the post count remained unchanged.
• August 15 - "this is my final thread for a very long time, so make it worthwhile, I'll be answering questions here for a few hours" – Kuz. A chud goes around putting posters up advertising the Sharty at xis university. First ever appearance of Brunetto.
• August 16 - Server migration; Soot sells soyjak.wiki, and Soot's farewell.
• August 17 - "The sad tale of Rapeson" is posted on the Party.

JAnon

• August 18 - 4chan janny whistleblower "J" starts posting in the Sharty, greatly reinforcing Operation Dilating Troon. The Party raided /his/ again and wiped half the pages.
• August 19 - The 4cuck janny whistleblower drops the /j/ leaks.
• August 21 - Kuz bans all discussion of racebait outside /b/. In addition, he bans all discussion of child porn since it only serves to give the spammers attention. A thread on /soy/ is made calling to raid /suggest/, but before it can even get underway all threads on /suggest/ are deleted, with the only thread remaining being a paper shredder. /suggest/'s board title is also renamed to "/suggest/ - The Shredder." Making a new post on /suggest/ during this time causes it to get auto‑deleted. A partial backup of threads before the board was wiped can be found here.
• August 22 - /suggest/ is unlocked for about an hour. Then it gets deleted and remade as "/suggest/ - suggestions" again, with the post count set back to 0. Jannies wipe /suggest/ for a third time and remove it from the header. A new announcement states /suggest/ has been merged with /qa/. After a lengthy Q&A with Kuz, he agrees to restore the board with the stipulation that all meta discussion must be posted to /suggest/ as stated in rule 9 (which wasn't being enforced). Also /g/ is reinstated and /x/ is locked. The 6666666th Get on /aco/ is achieved by Cobson.
• August 24 - Kuz makes an official Kolyma Discord server to supplement his IRC. Someone posts a picture of his announcement to /soy/, but the thread is deleted. Reactions are mixed, with some chuds calling Kuz a "discord tranny". Chuds also shared a screenshot of the public mod IRC that promptly got deleted, and anyone referencing it was banned. Chuds/Mods later claimed there were mentions of splinter sites/shilling, which was the probable reason those threads were deleted. Kuz announces a sudden, impromptu Q&A livestream after a Blotter message states he has returned from vacation., marking the first time Kuz has gone on a live stage since taking over the 'arty. The stream lasted for 1 h 30 min and was streamed to YouTube. The transcript is here.
• August 27 - 'Teens raid and wipe a coomer imageboard.
• August 28 - After a lot of controversy and drama, Kuz removes controversial janny Sobot. Kuz later appears in a thread lamenting the loss of Sobot and asks for ways to improve the site in various threads throughout the night. Kuz says he plans to take a long vacation from the site after saying in another thread he would be "blacklisting the site from my router" for several months, leaving an unnamed "oldchud" in charge of the site during his absence.
• August 29 - The bump limit is changed from 24000 to 500 for compatibility with the archive. Posts can also no longer be deleted. Later that day, orangetexting is enabled.
• August 30 - Preparations for the millionth GET begin as post 990000 is hit early in the morning. Lainchan's 20000 GET is stolen by a 'jakker later in the day, with an epic tranny fail on post #20001. Later, the 'arty raids an obscure German imageboard with hilariously bad moderation. 1chan also gets wiped for a third time. Before the day ends, a sign‑thread is posted asking people to write a message to Kuz after having purchased the Party one month ago. Lots of gems were mined before the thread turned to coal after hitting 370 posts in 2 hours.
• August 31 - The millionth GET ends up being UTTP spam brimstone, causing 'teens to pressure Kuz into exiling the spammer from all of his platforms, which he did.

September '22

• September 1 - A soyteen accidentally reveals his loli fetish in the drugs thread, leading to a lot of gems being mined. Kuz leaves for Cyprus until December for an unknown reason, putting three anonymous mods in charge. Intense speculation on why the admin of the Party is leaving for so long and what exactly he's doing follows.
• September 2 - A poll is briefly added asking soyteens whether the name field should be returned to /soy/. The poll at first overwhelmingly supports returning the name field, but later overwhelmingly opposes it. There are allegations of fraud, so nothing is done.
• September 3 - /giga/ is unlocked. The Party gets the oldest live thread on 4chan, a /po/ thread about a paper pendulum clock, archived by pushing it to the bump limit and posting new on‑topic posts. Hours later, however, mods do everything in their power to restore the thread by restoring it out of order from the archive.
• September 6 - Mods stop moderating the Party due to a small but vocal minority complaining about over‑moderation. The catalog quickly gets flooded with all types of coal. /suggest/ gets locked. This is undone a few hours later.
• September 7 - /soy/ gets a sticky for the death of Queen Elizabeth.

Good Boy Quest

• September 11 - **HAPPY INSIDE JOB DAY!** Just as it is about to be bumped off /soy/, Good Boy Quest #2 is moved to a surprise board, /qst/, making it the board's first post. /qst/ remains unlisted; /qst/ is also the first board to feature a dice‑rolling plug‑in.
• September 13 - A mysterious button labeled "Enable gallery mode" appears, which puts all images from a thread into a slideshow. Post deletion also gets re‑enabled. "SOYJAK TIER LIST 2023" is released to much acclaim.
• September 15 - A soyteen threatens to shoot up his school. Although the image and text are removed by the mods, the thread is left up. Other teens discover that the thread is a hoax because the gun pictured is an airsoft. The shooter teen continues making a few posts alleging he is being hunted by the police. Additional transparency additions to the site are announced by Chud ## Manager, and a tranime poster offers in /suggest/ to buy the Party for $4500. Rampant speculation continues through the night on the validity of the offer.
• September 16 - TOR is blocked.
• September 17 - %%glowtext%% and —bluetext— are added. Someone publicly leaks the invite to the QAfe, so mods publicly ban everyone in the thread. The name field is also re‑added on /soy/. After the scripted 1111111 GET, mods plan to remove the deletion field and dubs, similar to 4chan's /v/. Kuz also returns and plans to do a Q&A with Soot. Mods also can no longer post with their capcodes after posting about a sharty pass.^{[it just is, ok?]} Lastly, a 15‑year‑old soyteen uploads a shining gemerald video painted as colorjak.
• September 18 - A CP thread is made on /soy/. The thread is up for 20 minutes before moderators delete it. It amasses over 100 replies in that period, and many are shocked at the "new low". WE BROKE KUZ: Kuz makes a few posts complaining about the harassment and threats he got after acquiring the site. Kuz also reverts EVERYTHING back to how things were during the Soot era. Reportedly, a 'teen allegedly kills himself during the chaos.^{[it just is, ok?]} Later that day, a 'teen tops the IRL colorjak from earlier by posting videos of himself smearing his own shit on his face and eating it on camera. Kuz, starting afresh, promises a handful of new changes. /fap/ is also added.

The Afterparty

• September 19 - Forced anonymity is enabled site‑wide. The "Afterparty" is released in beta, set to archive /soy/ every hour, and to prevent 'p from being archived threads appear an hour after creation.
• September 20 - 2 years of soyjak.party! Forced anonymity is removed on /qa/. On /soy/, Chud changes to 🎉 2 years! 🎂. A button with the text "Click here to get your medal" appears; clicking the text causes "🥈 2 YEARS ON BALD MEN WITH GLASSES WEBSITE 🥈" to show up. The archive is expanded to encompass all boards as well. Soyteens try to steal a GET on /vmg/ but fail.
• September 22 - After yet another catty wiping raid, which includes CP and shill links to a dead site, Kuz makes a post on /suggest/ where he reveals that the admin of said site was perpetrating CP spam on the Sharty and then reporting the links so he could kill the site and bring users to his bunker. A thread quoting Kuz with an angry yurijak is made as a joke, but because Kuz's post is locked it ends up becoming the de‑facto discussion thread. In a rare occurrence, the Sharty is almost completely in agreement with Kuz and many users turn on the bunker.
• September 23 - Both /lgbt/ and [s4s] are successfully raided; one page is wiped on /lgbt/ and one page on [s4s].
• September 24 - Soot holds a Q&A session on /qa/. He has mixed feelings on Kuz's Sharty, being supportive of the moderation but skeptical of the /fap/ board. He also confirms that he has a girlfriend, which causes the chuds to join the 41%. Earliest known appearance of Chugsjak is posted on /soy/.^{[it just is, ok?]} The caption text on /soy/ changes to "Their[sic] just drawings, calm down." /f/ is solo raided with Soyjak and Heyuri videos, killing all but one thread. The last NAS thread, however, is killed with a Yotsuba flash named "loading 4chan." Unlike most raids, 4chan mods never deleted any of the soyjak flashes.
• September 25 - Kuz replaces reCAPTCHA with KolymaNET's own software, Kaptcha. Kaptcha is only put on /soy/ when making new threads and is not mandatory to fill out.
• September 26 - MOST COBSONS ARE BANNED. Posting Cobsons—except for still images—temporarily gives an automatic 30‑day ban. This is due to pedophiles embedding child pornography into GIFs and videos. KolymaNET and Discord are working with authorities to track down the posters. Kuz later changes the rules. Janitor applications reopen. Kaptcha becomes mandatory. /soy/'s caption changes to "The jaks posted here are artistic works of coal. Only a fool would call anything posted here a gem."
• September 28 - 88888888 GET on 4chan's /g/ board.
• September 30 - Earliest known appearance of Unbothered Chud is posted on the 'ru. /fap/ is deleted. Attempting to navigate to the board redirects the user to The Easy Peasy Method to Quit Porn.

October '22

• October 1 - A rogue janny uploads an Ongezellig‑themed thread, which is the worst nigger‑ass NAS incident in a while. Meanwhile, Kuz adds spinning text (--). The Photon style is removed and replaced with Dark2. After a failed GET on 4chan's /sci/, the Party raided a furry BBW chan, stole its 22222 GET, and wiped all pages.
• October 8 - The Party raided eight whole chans on this day, setting a record for the number of raids in a single day.

1. 28chan: 28chan was raided, with its Portuguese board /p/ fully wiped, leaving only the sticky. /b/ was also raided, with half the pages wiped.
2. Ponyville: An MLP chan called "Ponyville" had half the pages wiped but was cut short when a janny woke up.
3. Endchan: Endchan's /pol/ was going to be raided, but it had an hourly thread limit, so soyteens settled on stealing its 88888 GET.
4. late.city: When soyteens came flocking in, the shitty servers couldn't handle it and the website crashed—still considered a win.
5. perfectchan: Half of perfectchan's pages were wiped until the janny came in.
6. wrongthink.net: Soyteens started raiding normally at first until they discovered there was no post cooldown and no thread limit, so they could spam the same thread repeatedly. The website started off at about 20 pages and soyteens left it with 125, bringing the website to a staggering halt.
7. 94chan: It all started when a soyteen posted a soyquote of some oldfag seething about soyjaks. Of course, soyteens would not let someone get away with such words, so a new raid target was set. This led to all 20 pages being flooded with soyjaks (and even more, to make sure threads couldn't be retrieved from an archive). After about an hour of constant 'jak spam, a janny finally woke up, and EVERY single page was wiped, leaving not a single thread behind. This is regarded as one of the best days in raiding history, with hopefully many more gems to come.
8. kasumi.moe: After the previous gem, soyteens were still hungry for more. A shitty oldfag coomer site that had threads dating back to 2014 and no active moderation (a bot thread linking to 'p was up for an entire month) was found. At first, it started off slow, with the pages only increasing, but soon soyteens found the limit. Every single thread was wiped. This led to three of its users seething about "muh oldfag culture and history" and how evil 'jakkers are, despite the fact that the threads served no real value apart from being old. When soyteens realized there were no jannies coming online any time soon, they decided to set up base and turn the site into a soyjak colony. Attempts were made to crack the admin password and fully take over the site, but no progress was made—even a hoax image of the admin account being hijacked was made. However, this was all cut short when a faggot posted 'p to the site. Soyteens tried to bump threads to get rid of the 'p, but to no avail since he was bumping the 'p threads too. Activity faded as soyteens went to sleep, marking the end of our triumph. Two days later the 'min hopped on and wiped all 'jaks and 'p on /koe/—one thread survived the purge, a fucking body‑pillow thread. Later that day the site went down, leaving the error message, "board.kasumi.moe didn’t send any data." Thus kasumi.moe becomes the second chan taken down by a 'jak raid, the first being late.city.

• October 9 - Indiachan's /b/ was raided and completely wiped. On the same day, the 55555555 GET on 4chan's /k/ was stolen. Because the board is very pro‑Ukrainian and no jannies were online, it was raided with pro‑Russian 'jaks, resulting in six pages being wiped. The raid wasn't even blamed on soyteens but on Russian shills and /pol/ chuds.
• October 10 - 89000000 GET on 4chan's /g/ board.
• October 13 - Some oldfag larper site called "Comfychan" was raided and had all of /b/ and some of /f/ wiped. The next day, the admin woke up and seethed about it, calling our 'jaks "retarded wojack jpegs", saying we're 12‑year‑old autists, and that we glow. He restored a site backup from September. Because he had datamining software installed, he found that the site referrals led back to soyjak.party (we were saying we were from r/markiplier during the raid). He found the thread, called us Zionists, and claimed he had our IPs and was plotting revenge. Nothing will happen since he's too much of a faggot to do anything, plus most soyteens aren't retarded and used a VPN/proxy while raiding.
• October 15 - Post hiding is silently added. Crystal.cafe's /b/ and /feels/ boards were raided while the jannies were sleeping. Although the gems on /b/ were swiftly deleted, the ones on /feels/ stayed up for over three hours, making this a win.
• October 17 - Mods plan a Q&A within "the next two weeks."
• October 18 - The Discord crackdown begins. Any janitor that participated in "sharty Discord servers" will get banned for 30 days and be ineligible to moderate. This follows a leak of the QAfe Discord.
• October 20 - No NAS Thursday. Any NAS posts on /soy/ get deleted and the poster banned for 1 day.
• October 24 - The Party chuds up a school district’s feedback form en masse, causing the administration to disable the feature entirely later in the day.
• October 24–25 - Krautchan.love, a relatively new IB, is gemmed up by soyteens. Surprisingly, the admin responds by establishing a ‘jakker board.
• October 27 - A soyteen makes a bait suicide thread for (You)s; he later comes out and says it was a joke.
• October 29 - Sharty staff do a Q&A. A notice with the text "THINK TWICE – All illegal images will be reported to law enforcement" now shows up next to the upload field. Video embeds are also re‑added, a feature removed by Soot less than a month after the site was made.
• October 30 - A message on /soy/ appears with the text: "Attention to the womans of soyjak.party. 2 loyal hard working men of kolyma network are seeking a wife. Asmat Tursanov and Bogdan Tigbayev. Cash rewards, free housing, and other benefits are applied. Please put your interests to the suggest board or leave mesage at the email. mwprogram@kolyma.net thank you." It is unknown if the message is real or a joke. The message was then equally mysteriously deleted.
• October 31 - Flags are briefly added on /soy/.

November '22

• November 1 - Posts that have "kys" in them now show what the abbreviation actually means: "Kiss Your Self".
• November 2 - Kuz buys a Datsun Cherry and asks soyteens what they think. Kuz ends up getting ratioed until he does a counter‑ratio. The default anonymous name changes from Chud to 🪦 RIP /QA/ 🪦 to remember the first anniversary of the death of /qa/.
• November 3 - Cobson can now be seen peeking out at the bottom‑right corner while browsing the boards, reminding you that he is, in fact, a gem. On Telegram, Kuz expresses his idea to polish up an already‑existing dating software, implementing it as a cross‑network Kolyma dating service. He later holds a poll asking if this is a good idea, to which a majority of 67 % vote no.
• November 4 - The 'craft server opens up for real. The wiki suffers a DDoS attack.
• November 5 - Forced anonymity is removed on /muv/ in order to discuss Soycraft (Old) more easily. Mods also plan to undo all range‑bans on November 7 as an experiment.
• November 6 - Mods move an LGBT bait thread to /b/. Threads such as that one have been plaguing /soy/ for some time. A mod responds by reminding soyteens that the promotion of LGBT values is prohibited on KolymaNET properties. A rogue jakparty.soy janny posts on /soy/, leaking information about the website's owner, Loot, and his involvement with raids against the Sharty. He is subsequently removed from jakparty's janny team and the site undergoes a DDoS attack.
• November 7 - /bant/ is created. Turkey Tom mentions soyjak.party in his livestream.
• November 10 - The thread that asked Kuz to add an 'zellig banner after 30 days finally reached that threshold, so, as a result, /soy/ gets flooded and becomes /zellig/. Mods end up temporarily banning Ongezellig discussion on /soy/.

The Five Board Plan

• November 11 - A teen uploads a nine‑page PDF titled "The Five Board Plan" detailing his desire to lessen the number of boards on the Sharty from 22 to 5 to fix what he views as "board bloat". Kuz reads over the PDF about an hour after the thread is posted and announces his intent to enact the plan with minor modifications on Kuz's end. Later, Kuz enacts the change, hiding every board except /q/, /soy/, /qa/, /g/, /bant/, and /o/. /g/ is now known as Generals rather than Technology. --Calmtext-- is also re‑added. The Booru modifies its upload policy.
• November 12 - Kuz announces on Telegram that there will be a trial run of the Kolyma dating software on November 13 at noon EST, scheduled to run for 4 hours. He posts a screenshot of the service (named simply "Kolyma Dating") as a preview.
• November 13 - A thread on /soy/ is stickied: an image of Neptune edited to have Cobson's face. At 12:00 PM EST, Kolyma Dating begins its test run. It consists of 19 chatrooms (two of which, specifically 13 and 14, are classified as "TR - Halal") allowing users to chat with one another. A message on /soy/ appears linking to Kolyma Dating, with the caption "Stop being a lonely incel today!" While initially set to last for 4 hours, it ends a little over an hour after launch. The link to Kolyma Dating redirects to a message from KolymaNET's Internet Services Directorate, stating that the program had "concluded earlier" and that the six successful matches made during the test run will be offered KolymaNET positions and a "certificate of union". Kuz goes on /soy/ to clarify that the early closure was due to "too many underage Ukrainians trying to sell pics of themselves" and that Kolyma Dating would not be coming back. He also announces that he will be reversing the Five Board Plan by bringing back some boards. Furthermore, he announces a possible plan to co‑buy 4chan with a friend for $4 m, as well as reformatting the rules and wiping /soy/ to "kill off most of the necrobump gimmick threads". Finally, he states that the deal to buy 'zellig fell through and that "Massa may fall out of his window soon". /bant/ is hidden and /int/, /a/, /pol/, and /r/ are restored.
• November 17 - Soyteens successfully get a post to the 24000‑post bump limit. SoyBooru gets a rebrand. Soyteens raid a gay men group‑masturbation video call, creating an amazing gemerald.

The Unpluggening

• November 19 - The Unpluggening: The Party discovered and began investigating nonsensefag bots spamming the comment section of the video ♪ UNDERTALE THE MUSICAL - Animation Song Parody by user LHUGUENY. The bots from that video then invaded the Sharty and caused mass hysteria. Soyteens then went to war to defeat the bots and asked for fact‑checked and peer‑reviewed sources for everything the bots said. First signs of infection came on the thread questioning the strangeness of the video's newest comment section. It is believed by many soyteens—and rightly so—that the person who made the thread had connections to the bots, since the bots learned rather quickly of soyjak.party and began making posts on the site (even though it would take a long time to code the AI so they could post on soyjak.party).
  • Theory one:** the bots were simply hosted by some schizo for free, with no monetary reward whatsoever.
  • Theory two:** the bots were trained there so they could be used for certain places and communities, as well as shill an NWO agenda and tell people to take their medications and eat the bugs.
• November 20 - Dotspam becomes explicitly banned. Anyone caught dot‑spamming will get a permanent, unappealable ban. Earliest known appearance of Beastjak is posted on /soy/.
• November 21 - Earliest known appearance of Kliksjak is posted on /soy/.
• November 23 - A janny gets BTFO by Cobson posters on /soy/.^{[This happened, ok?]}
• November 24 - "Today is Thanksgiving—please remember to be very thankful this day!" appears in the Blotter, as well as a stickied post of Cobson reminding soyteens to stay warm and safe this winter.
• November 25 - On the Booru, after some soyteens remove tags on posts they don't like in order to get them deleted, Booru moderators lock some new posts, causing butthurt on /soy/.
• November 26 - After being routed to the default KolymaNET error page, the Afterparty (on sp.logwarehouse.net) starts working again.

Variant Of The Year 2022

The second notice

December '22

• December 1 - An official poll to determine Soyjak.party's Variant of the Year started. Voting lasted until December 14. The Party raided Cyborgchan and 3chan, with every board on Cyborgchan being wiped. 3chan's /b/ and /cb/ (faggot board) were almost fully wiped, but a few threads that couldn't be bumped off remained. The Cyborgchan admin and his oldfag tranny friends later came back, seething and coping about their entire fucking altchan being wiped by soyjak spam. Erischan was also raided by soyteens, with its main board /eris/ fully wiped. This caused the admin to cry big‑time shortly after he finally found the hot pockets and logged back on, claiming that "there's literally no way to recover from this."
• December 3 - On his Telegram, Kuz posted a screenshot of an e‑mail he received from an account ending in fbi.gov that had the subject "Threats to Life". He captioned the screenshot "Enough with the fake shooting hoax threads." Assuming Kuz isn't trolling, this is the second time that Kuz publicly announced that the Sharty had been noticed by the FBI, following another school shooting threat a few months ago. It most likely would have been caused by this thread from the day prior (apparently posted from Langley, Virginia). On the same day, Kuz posts "4chan 2023." It is unknown if Kuz closed a deal with Hiroyuki or something else. This gives soyteens hope that /qa/ will have the last laugh. A 'teen makes Bobe, a variant that mocks Froge. TBPChan was raided, with multiple 7‑year‑old posts from 2016 being wiped. Not every board was wiped, as most boards had almost no posts even after years. The site went down two or three days later and then came back up the next day, complete with a seething message from the owner. Despite claiming to have a backup, the owner refuses to use it.
• December 4 - SoyBooru temporarily shuts down for maintenance.
• December 7 - A notice with the text "Bans issued this week: 6 201" shows up. Azmat Tushkanov, a Kolyma employee, then posts: "Hello to spammers I am Azmat Tushkanov, i am here from emergency resources center of kolyma. I came here to gives a specil thanks to spammer for of making great contribution to kolyma by letting IP's are add to our database for anti spam. Sincerely, Asmat." This follows a large spam attack.
• December 8 - The Ongezellig banner gets added, after pressure to do so mounts.
• December 9 - Kuz decides to play a prank on the Sharty by pretending the site has been seized by the FBI.
• December 11 - After days of nightly scat raids, janitor applications reopen. Posts also get Christmas hats.
• December 12 - Turkey Tom, after getting spammed by soyteens, says Kuz could join his stream if he sends him a $100 superchat. However, Kuz is not present.
• December 14 - Nojak wins Variant Of The Year 2022. Earliest known appearance of Muscular Chud is posted on the 'ru.
• December 16 - All external links on the Party now direct to jump.kolyma.net. For example, linking to https://yandex.com will link to https://jump.kolyma.net/?https://yandex.com
• December 17 - A [!] button now appears next to all posts, which allows you to report posts directly to KolymaNET. This button replaces the old report feature. Posts can now be reported on the Party's Log Warehouse. Kuz also does a Q&A.
• December 19 - The Booru went down again. A user leaks the infamous and highly secretive ratio.js, creating a cascade of scripted spam.
• December 20 - In PixelPlanet, a pixel art of Yotsuba gets gemmed up, but jannies revert the changes. As retaliation, Operation Swine Dive begins, with the goal of erasing all of Ukraine from PixelPlanet. The operation has caused much butthurt among the locals.
• December 26 - The Christmas style is removed.
• December 27 - The Party raided /hm/ on 4chan and successfully wiped five pages worth of threads. One of the locals starts accusing soyteens of being "paid Russian shills".
• December 28 - The option to set custom User JS is silently removed.
