	* '''4chan - Sharty conflict (yet to have a concise name):''' Ever since the first soyjak was posted on /int/, may of 4chan's janitors have shown an [[sharty:Soyphobia\|irrational disdain]] towards 'jakking, while allowing Pepe/Wojak threads, which are similar in quality, to stay up. Once /qa/, the home of soyposters, brutally raided /lgbt/, it was swiftly dealt a disastrous blow, an event now called Operation Clean Stable (November 3rd, 2021). Soyjak.party's userbase would eventually outgrow 4chan's in terms of fighting power, as demonstrated by their constant catalog wipes, and a sole user colloquially referred to as Captain Gem would retaliate (?) against the banishment of their homeland via The Great Cuckset (April 14th - 25th, 2025). Whatever his true intentions were, the Sharty claimed a resounding victory nonetheless, and, as SOI1337 is mostly inactive, it is impossible to know all the whys and wherefores. To this day, soyposters are give the banhammer, while the sharty still raids/baits specific 4chan boards.		* '''4chan - Sharty conflict (yet to have a concise name):''' Ever since the first soyjak was posted on /int/, may of 4chan's janitors have shown an [[sharty:Soyphobia\|irrational disdain]] towards 'jakking, while allowing Pepe/Wojak threads, which are similar in quality, to stay up.

	* '''8che - zzzchan rivalry:''' To understand the shitshow that is 8che, we first need to talk about its founding father, Mark Mann, who is a disgusting pedophile and a lolcow first and foremost (a Kiwifarms thread is dedicated to him, wherein most information displayed here was initially shared with others). He made the /v/ board for 8chan before the GamerGate incident took place, which was well-received since it had a pretty alright community and a fitting PPH. After Jim Watkins buys 8chan from Cripplekike, the former pays Mark to become a moderator/beta-tester, who does not actually do that much. After Tarrant [[wikipedia:Christchurch_mosque_shootings\|shows his love]] to about 50 muslims, 8chan is deplatformed, which prompts Mark to create a bunker which will be relevant for a few months, as 8chan, now 8kun, re-brands itself. Due to the powerful position he had, xe could decide which boards actually moved to 8kun, which is why historical ones such as /intl/ became lost to time (/pol/ died too for some reason). Around this time, something unusual in 8chan history happens: {{Gemeraldtext\|the Watkins brothers decide to ban loli 'p altogheter.}} Obviously, Mark was furious and stated having arguments with Jim, who finally fired him. Mann, after trying and failing to negotiate regarding the permissibility of loli 'p on 9chan's /v/ with Null, then launched 8che without actually being its owner (that would be AcidFag) in order to once again become the owner of /v/; it is worth mentioning one of the first boards created on 8che is {{Antimattertext\|/hebe/}} and that /v/ was also poisoned with pedophiles who migrated from 8/v/'s "SARGON" general. Those who were tired with Mark's shenanigans went on and created [[zzzchan]], which is arguably the gemmiest (unless you count Endchan which saved the sharty a couple of times) and least pedophillic{{CitationNeeded\|That's not saying much}} splinter of the 8sphere. From what it seems, they are vnbqthered when it comes to 8che, as they do not whine about its existence constantly. 8che, on the other hand, loves to obsess over the "niggerpill" (something related to GamerGate2 demoralization which isn't even that much of a thing), LCP, zzzchan and Kiwifarms (they did get like 4000 PPH during The Cuckset though, which also meant the degenerate boards would be kicked off the top boards page for a while).

	* '''Soysphere - altchan rivalry:''' Especially in the early years of the Sharty, there would be raids organized that would be directed towards altchans. Virtually no altchan would be safe from soyjak.party's inside-jokes and cattywipes. The first major conflict happened in the same month soyjak.party was founded, the enemy being mlpol. It was a costly war for both sides, however soyjak.party would avenge their losses (/raid/ being spammed with ML'P) by raiding mlpol again in early 2021. Mlpol now filters sharty to donkey. In October of 2021, soyteens would raid 1chan, the third-oldest English-speaking imageboard after world2ch and 4chan: this is, in fact, the moment when oldfags started scorning soyfags. 711chan, Desuchan, Lainchan, Endchan and 1chan were the first websites truly affected by the sharty's raids and the first *chan to actually shut down due to a soyteen raid was late.city, followed by kasumi (the latter now shows an anime image when accessed; insecure site so I will not link). Chances are, if you are on an altchan and you admit being a soyteen, you will be stigmatized and possibly B& if you post 'jaks. A recent example of a Soysphere raid on an altchan is the [[Someboard.xo.je\|Sboardy]] raid on [[Wirechan]].		* '''Soysphere - altchan rivalry:''' Especially in the early years of the Sharty, there would be raids organized that would be directed towards altchans.

			== Current rivalries within the Chanosphere ==
			Without a doubt, war is the most important part of history. As of right now, it is possible for us to map a few conflicts which have yet to die down.

			* '''4chan - Sharty conflict (yet to have a concise name):''' Ever since the first soyjak was posted on /int/, may of 4chan's janitors have shown an [[sharty:Soyphobia\|irrational disdain]] towards 'jakking, while allowing Pepe/Wojak threads, which are similar in quality, to stay up. Once /qa/, the home of soyposters, brutally raided /lgbt/, it was swiftly dealt a disastrous blow, an event now called Operation Clean Stable (November 3rd, 2021). Soyjak.party's userbase would eventually outgrow 4chan's in terms of fighting power, as demonstrated by their constant catalog wipes, and a sole user colloquially referred to as Captain Gem would retaliate (?) against the banishment of their homeland via The Great Cuckset (April 14th - 25th, 2025). Whatever his true intentions were, the Sharty claimed a resounding victory nonetheless, and, as SOI1337 is mostly inactive, it is impossible to know all the whys and wherefores. To this day, soyposters are give the banhammer, while the sharty still raids/baits specific 4chan boards.
			* '''8choe - zzzchan rivalry:''' To understand the shitshow that is 8choe, we first need to talk about its founding father, Mark Mann, who is a disgusting pedophile and a lolcow first and foremost (a Kiwifarms thread is dedicated to him, wherein most information displayed here was initially shared with others). He made the /v/ board for 8chan before the GamerGate incident took place, which was well-received since it had a pretty alright community and a fitting PPH. After Jim Watkins buys 8chan from Cripplekike, the former pays Mark to become a moderator/beta-tester, who does not actually do that much. After Tarrant [[wikipedia:Christchurch_mosque_shootings\|shows his love]] to about 50 muslims, 8chan is deplatformed, which prompts Mark to create a bunker which will be relevant for a few months, as 8chan, now 8kun, re-brands itself. Due to the powerful position he had, xe could decide which boards actually moved to 8kun, which is why historical ones such as /intl/ became lost to time (/pol/ died too for some reason). Around this time, something unusual in 8chan history happens: {{Gemeraldtext\|the Watkins brothers decide to ban loli 'p altogheter.}} Obviously, Mark was furious and stated having arguments with Jim, who finally fired him. Mann, after trying and failing to negotiate regarding the permissibility of loli 'p on 9chan's /v/ with Null, then launched 8choe without actually being its owner (that would be AcidFag) in order to once again become the owner of /v/; it is worth mentioning one of the first boards created on 8choe is {{Antimattertext\|/hebe/}} and that /v/ was also poisoned with pedophiles who migrated from 8/v/'s "SARGON" general. Those who were tired with Mark's shenanigans went on and created [[zzzchan]], which is arguably the gemmiest (unless you count Endchan which saved the sharty a couple of times) and least pedophillic{{CitationNeeded\|That's not saying much}} splinter of the 8sphere. From what it seems, they are vnbqthered when it comes to 8choe, as they do not whine about its existence constantly. 8choe, on the other hand, loves to obsess over the "niggerpill" (something related to GamerGate2 demoralization which isn't even that much of a thing), LCP, zzzchan and Kiwifarms (they did get like 4000 PPH during The Cuckset though, which also meant the degenerate boards would be kicked off the top boards page for a while). Their main domain -ACKed for a while during the end of 2025.
			* '''Soysphere - altchan rivalry:''' Especially in the early years of the Sharty, there would be raids organized that would be directed towards altchans. Virtually no altchan would be safe from soyjak.party's inside-jokes and cattywipes. The first major conflict happened in the same month soyjak.party was founded, the enemy being mlpol. It was a costly war for both sides, however soyjak.party would avenge their losses (/raid/ being spammed with ML'P) by raiding mlpol again in early 2021. Mlpol now filters sharty to donkey. In October of 2021, soyteens would raid 1chan, the third-oldest English-speaking imageboard after world2ch and 4chan: this is, in fact, the moment when oldfags started scorning soyfags. 711chan, Desuchan, Lainchan, Endchan and 1chan were the first websites truly affected by the sharty's raids and the first *chan to actually shut down due to a soyteen raid was late.city, followed by kasumi (the latter now shows an anime image when accessed; insecure site so I will not link). Chances are, if you are on an altchan and you admit being a soyteen, you will be stigmatized and possibly B& if you post 'jaks. A recent example of a Soysphere raid on an altchan is the [[Someboard.xo.je\|Sboardy]] raid on [[Wirechan]].
			* Plus about a hundred undocumented useless nigger wars.
