2022

• January 15 - The post database is lost after Soot's server provider was hit with CSAM complaints. Post counts on /​soy​/ are rolled back more than a month, even post no. 22222 was given a second chance.
• January - February - the 'sharty is hit by a spam wave of illegal material without precedents that even ends spilling over to this very wiki. This event is the most likely reason for soot's selling the 'sharty and is thought by many to be one of the darkest days of the 'sharty.
• Febuary/march - Jackbox raids, pixelplanet and flockmod are started
• ...
• July 14 - It is made official that Soot sold the soyjak.party, booru.soy, and soyjak.download to Kuz
• July 19 - Jakbox revival
• August 3 - Facebook style reaction buttons are added. The buttons would 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 buttons were removed because people were only using the buttons.
• August 7 - All 14,568 soot-era bans have been undone.
• August 8 - /​incel​/ is added.
• August 16 - Server Migration ; Soot sells soyjak.wiki, and Soot's farewell
• August 18 - 4chan janny whistleblower "J" starts posting in the 'sharty, inaugurating operation dilating troon
• 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 during on /suggest/ during this time would cause it to get autodeleted. 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 then wipe suggest for a third time and remove it from the header. A new announcement is posted stating 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.
• 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 banned. Chuds/Mods later claimed there were mentions of splinter sites/shilling which was the probable reason for why the threads got deleted. Kuz announces a sudden, impromptu Q&A livestream after a blotter message announces he has returned from vacation. marking the first time kuz has gone on a live stage since taking over the 'party. The stream lasted for 1 hour and 30 minutes and was streamed to youtube.

To be researched: Any chuds interested in helping out with the transcript?. Can (You) help us?

• 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 24,000 to 500 for comparability with the archive. Posts can also no longer be deleted. Later the same 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 on in the day, with an epic tranny fail on post #20001. Later the same day the 'party raids an obcure german imageboard with hilariously bad moderation. 1chan also gets wiped for a third time. Before the day ends, a sign-thread gets 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 protest Kuz to exile them from all of his platforms, which he did.
• 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 3 anonymous mods in charge. Intense speculation on why the Admin of the 'party is leaving for so long and what exactly hes doing follows.
• September 2 - A poll is briefly added asking soyteens whether or not the name field should be returned to /soy/. The poll at first overwhelmingly supports returning the name field, but later overwhelmingly opposes it. There were allegations of fraud, so nothing was done.
• September 3 - /giga/ is unlocked
• September 6 - Mods stop moderating the 'party due to a small but vocal minority complaining about overmoderation. The catalog very quickly gets flooded with all types of coal. /suggest/ gets locked. This gets undone a few hours later.
• September 7 - /soy/ gets a sticky for the death of Queen Elizabeth
• September 11 - HAPPY INSIDE JOB DAY! Just as it was about to be bumped off /soy/, Good boy quest is moved to a surprise board, /qst/, making it the boards 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 'teen threatens to shoot up his school, although the image and text is 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 an offer is made in /suggest/ by a tranime poster 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 public 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, as well as 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 'teen uploads a shining gemerald video painted as colorjak
• September 18 - A CP thread is made on /soy/, which is not uncommon, but this one features the infamous "Daisys Destruction". The thread is up for 20 minutes before moderators find and delete it, and it amasses over 100 replies in that time period, many 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 kills himself during the chaos. ^{[it just is, ok?]} Later that day, a 'teen tops the colorjak anon 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.
• September 19 - Forced anonymity is enabled sitewide. The Afterparty archive archives posts on /soy/ that are more than one hour old.

Clicking the text causes "🥈 2 YEARS ON BALD MEN WITH GLASSES WEBSITE 🥈" to show up. The archive is expanded to encompass all the 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, and since kuzs post is locked, it ends up becoming the de-facto discussion thread. In a rare occurence, the sharty is almost completely in agreement with kuz, and many users turn on the bunker.
• September 24 - Soot holds a Q&A session on /qa/He has mixed feelings on the kuz's party, being supportive of the moderation but skeptical of the /fap/ board, he also confirms that he has a girlfriend causing the incels to ACK. The caption text on /soy/ changes to "Their[sic] just drawings, calm down."
• 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, with the exception of still images, will now temporarily give an automatic 30 day ban. This was 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.

• October 30 - A 'teen cuts himself then draws a 'jak with his blood. 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. [email protected] thank you."

• November 3 - Cobson can now be seen peeking out at the bottom right hand 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 7 - /bant/ is created. Turkey Tom mentions soyjak.party in his livestream.
• November 10 - The thread that asked Kuz to add a 'zellig banner after 30 days finally reached that threshold, so, a result, /soy/ gets flooded and becomes /zellig/. Mods end up temporarily banning Ongezellig discussion on /soy/.
• November 11 - A teen uploads a nine page PDF titled "The Five Board Plan", detailing his desire to lessen the amount of boards on the sharty from 22 to 5 as 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 for /q/, /soy/, /qa/, /g/, /bant/, and /o/. /g/ is now known as Generals rather than Technology. --Calmtext-- also gets 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 13th 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 of 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 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 has "concluded earlier", and that the 6 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 of the boards. Furthermore, he announces a possible plan to co-buy 4chan with a friend for 4m, as well as reformatting the rules and wiping /soy/ to "kill off most of the necrobump gimmick threads".

• December 3 - On his telegram, Kuz posted a screenshot of an email 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 us, this is the second time that Kuz publicly announced that the sharty has ever 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 (which apparently was 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 'teens hope that /qa/ will have the last laugh. A 'teen makes Bobe, a variant that mocks Froge.
• December 4 - SoyBooru temporarily shuts down for maintenance.
• December 7 - A notice with the following text shows up: "Bans issued this week: 6,201."

• January 4 - A 'teen starts graffitiing soy and Kolyma related things on the streets. A Kolyma employee posts their tabs in a thread titled "ITT: WE POST OUR TABS." Mods move the necrobumped Ongezellig thread to /test/, and it is later deleted.

These changes are very quickly reversed, with the exception of the post number and visible sage.
• January 8 - Nightly Raids return, with the catalog being flooded with MrBeast spam, as well as the site being DDoSed.
• January 9 - reCAPTCHA and Cloudflare shields are enabled (for posts and replies) in order to brace for the >>>/soy/2000000 GET, which is achieved later that day. Despite the GET being considered brimstone by many, Kuz had a positive outlook, writing "It took just a week short of 2 years for us to reach 1,000,000 posts on /soy/, but only 4 months for it to reach its 2,000,000th post. Time goes by so fast!... here's to another million posts, it'll go by real quickly. 🥂🍾❤️" on his Telegram.

This coincides with KolymaNET cracking down of the promotion of LGBT issues on its network. Some Russian text "Жить стало лучше..." (Life got better...) shows as an announcement.
• January 12 - /soy/ temporarily goes under the unforgetting eye of ROBOT9000: Anyone that makes a non-original post gets temporarily muted. This was found to have been a mistake. Another announcement with the text "I am sorry for the sub par moderation in the past 9 days, there has been alot of misbehavior, but it will be fixed now. Due to the large quantity of spam, i decided to wipe the board. Also, the robot was accidentally enabled for 1 hour and 33 minutes." shows up.
• January 13 - Soyteens dliate and have an autistic temper tantrum over some Twitter kike tranny nobody who called the site a "wojak site" or something. 'teens own him epic style by committing federal crimes. Kuz announces that KNN (Kolyma News Navigator) has returned. Sharty fixes is deleted. KNN gets integrated with the 'party.

• January 16 - A 'teen that goes by the name "[email protected]" goes through leaked databases in order to hack various WordPress websites.
• January 18 - Soyjak.party temporarily goes down, which leads some 'teens to believe that the site is down for good. /soy/'s catalog gets completely wiped.

One of the changes that happened was that Kuz would announce a mascot called Bobo the Sharty Janny.

• January 24 - An anonymous mod (or janny posting with a capcode) finally responds to a ban evader by dropping redpills in a thread. A thread is made asking for board suggestions; Despicable Me music plays in the background.
• January 25 - the 'sharty reports an account scraping the booru with a bot and posting on twitter and doxxes the owner of it: a 30 years old israeli man, for once it really was da joos
• January 26 - Sharty gets a notice warning everyone that they are responsible for their own posts https://soyjak.party/publichouse.html
• January 27 - /raid/ is back and gets almost instantly spammed with advertisements of the coal site. /v/ and /tech/ get added. /r9k/ and /fap/ get re-added later that day. Old boards, such as /b/ or /muv/, were changed into [REDACTED]. A lot of backend changes are made
• January 28 - 'teens sucefully doxx Inés Moro, an ugly asian-french femchud from the 'fe that made coal pedophile soyteen fanart. Kuz messes with the CSS, such as inverting all colors, making the post count start with Ϫ, and making text slowly squeeze together. The catalog gets completely wiped.
