The plot thickens. Maybe it wasn't the original owner who did it.

How/why did it get reassigned to the culprit?

All old IP addresses were cleared a few months ago when the site started hashing them in the database. That gives all posts made before that date the same IP address, namely the empty string. Deleting one of those posts by IP address deletes all of them.
I think they started out deleting by IP, switched to just deleting thread OPs after a while (all those deleted posts were threads), and finally noticed that all the old posts had the same IP address and deleted those by IP.

But did it not have an owner already? I imagine I can't just claim it now for example…

If the owner seems to be inactive, because they don't log in and don't execute any mod actions, you can send an email to claim@8ch.net. Or if they're violating global policy by destroying everything or allowing illegal content.
There's a flaw there. Sometimes a mod is paying attention but seemingly inactive because there's nothing to do.

Hi, I was the owner. I was wondering why I can't log in to the administration panel any more.
Sorry, I have been mostly inactive. I'm actually fine with someone else taking over, if they will make it a better place than I have (which is very likely).
I don't know why the board got deleted in that way? I thought 8chan had been hacked again.
I added an email to my account so they could have just sent something there, if they wanted to notify me…

The leaked April mod table dump doesn't have an email address for your account, so unless you added it after that, something went wrong there.
I have a few other responsibilities on 8chan so even if I lost interest I don't think I would lose track of the board. If people remember to complain if I do something wrong I think I'll do ok.

Yes, I added it afterwards. I didn't even know there had been a dump, I thought the website had been defaced but nothing else. I'm a very neglectful owner and you should probably take over.

Thank the person who had the idea for this. I just thought it would be fun and created a 8ch board. I stopped checking it after a while, though.

Also sorry for the late reply, I saw these posts a while ago but was trying to minimise Web 2.0-related effort and time spent, to meet an important deadline.

Person with idea reporting in.
I think I'm proud of what this place became, the original goal was to ratpost without worrying about blue-tribe censorship bullshit.

I enjoy reading nostalgebraist, but that post is BS. It should be "dril or uncharitable characterizations of yudkowsky by liberals".
Except the last yudkowsky quote, but that is a bet he actually won? It feels like ridiculing JFK's "we're going to the moon" speech if you don't know that people actually went to the moon.

He's comparing them because it's funny. "Donate all your X to Y or face torture forever" is a pattern dril's tweet and Roko's basilisk both fit in, and that's surprising.
The second one is weak, but that still leaves two good ones.
He did put actual Yudkowsky criticism in other posts, but this post is just a joke, it's not trying to be an argument.

>"Donate all your X to Y or face torture forever"
You do realize that literally no one made this argument, right? Roko's original comment was an argument against "friendly ai" (i.e. it would be morally abhorrent to donate to something that may end up torturing people).
