War on Self-Inserters
The War on Self-Inserters was a mental breakdown experienced by Ronald[1], owner of the shiny and its children sites. It was a campaign against those who avatarfag with Soyjaks. Ronald would shit up threads with ungodly amounts of spinning emojis, severely lagging the browser of anyone who attempted to view the threads thereafter. Ronald has stated that he runs the bot because "legit everytime i come on the sharty its literally just neutralpliers staring at me, whining about how they get cucked at school or some shit" or something.
