I read the other day that experts are saying it's going to be 'full' by 2012. True, or just a bullshit scam, like Y2k? If true, what happens then? Do they make a new one?

They unplug it and plug it back in, of course.

I've read about this too. It's all dealing with the amount of information we can store across the globe. We need more space basically.

We could always just delete 4chan.

That would absolutely and undoubtedly prove the existence of God. I mean, to those who dont have any kind of beliefs.

... Meaning if a human being takes out 4chan, they ASCEND to the level of god.
Makes sense, considering
4chan's true identity

The internet (and 4chan) coming to a screeching halt might be a good thing when you consider it's history.
The
internet's creator originally wanted the internet to further his evil purposes, but
five magical and beautiful faries came along and gave it sentient life using
a powerful artifact. Once it gained supreme intellect, it issued
a beastly call of summoning to all it's followers, the most powerful of which becoming
the internet's head administrator. A
team of crack moderators was set up, and slowly they began to take over and cripple the world using
underhanded tactics and
weapons of mass destruction.
The only hope to defeat this monster is for
the most powerful force in the universe to utilize
it's greatest weapon and exploit the internet's
greatest weakness.
That's
my story, and I'm
sticking to it.

The internet is not "full" but it can only handle so much data at one time and we are getting near the max ... blame the Spammers!

The world is coming to an end in 2012 anyway so I don't see the problem?
The amount of data we're moving about via the internet is growing explosively, but so is the actual infrastructure so I'm sure they'll catch up. Google will just put some extra cables in the ocean and stuff, we'll be fine.

Well, it's exactly 100 years until 2112, and according to a certain Canadian power trio, that's not such a good time!

Didn't she just resign as Alaskan Governor? Thus rendering her 99.9% useless in life. Shame she can still account for the other .1% of use by breathing.
