Or, absolute trolling. Especially since you can target specific boards.

I remember when someone spammed the ending to LA Noire on /v/ for a whole day.


What would really make me wet my pants would be full page takeover-ads.

I'd pay serious money to do a full page targeted troll-ad on any number of boards.

I can't even imagine the scale of the butthurt that would ensue if someone bought a full page ad for something like my little pony figures and targeted one of the more masochistic boards like /v/.


Monetized trolling sounds like a great way to become unbelievably rich.
