To be researched: Why Quote did it. Can (You) help us?

The Second Great Handover took place from August 5-9, 2026. Quote unexpectedly gave the Soysphere to Salt.[1] This was met with much confusion, as it was done with no announcement and contradicted Quote's previous claims that he planned to JSID whenever he was done. Complications from the handover resulted in the 2026 outage, resulting in a temporary migration wave to the Swinny and the 'ki galleries after June 8th being completely raped due to a disk failure. During this time, it was revealed that Cobblestone, Warrior-Z, and Broot had been covert administrators.

Changes

Possible reasons

  • Quote fucking died MEDS NOW
  • The British glowies were closing in on Quote and he needed to get rid of the Sharty fast.
  • Quote got 'jakking fatigue.
  • The Seventh Soysurgency.
  • Site was unprofitable due to a record year low PPH of only 200 [3]
  • Quote's parents cut down the internet.
  • It's all a hoax, Quote just wanted to start fresh.

Larp theory

Some soyteens have theorized that the Second Great Handover was a larp and Salt is actually Quote. Proponents of the theory claim that Quote was wanting to purge some jannies and overhaul the rules, so he did it behind kayfabe.

Points in favor

  • It happened in the midst of the Seventh Soysurgency.
  • Mustard is still an admin of SoyBooru.
  • Quote previously stated that he planned to JSID when he was done.

Points against

  • Root, Mustard, Cobblestone, Warrior-Z, and Broot all had their admin privileges revoked.
  • Mustard and Fenriris were reportedly not informed.[4]
  • Salt seems to act completely different from Quote.
  • Turning /soy/ into a gore board is far beyond where any previous larps have gone.

Hostile takeover theory

Fenriris proposed the idea that Quote was in some way forced to give the site to Salt, though he himself stated that he has no evidence for this theory and said not to read too much into it.[4]
