“WTFUX IS NOT 100% TRIPCODE FAGGOTS.”
– cho0b¹⁾

Lulz.net was an English furry-focused bulletin board, founded by “cho0b”,²⁾ whose history spans back to WTFux on March 13, 2005. It was roughly established around June 2005, became the main focus as WTFux closed in 2010, then it abruptly died around 2025 due to server issues.

The original WTFux had formally launched on March 13, 2005,³⁾ using Wakaba and Kareha at the “wtfux.org” domain. Historically, they were known for a /cams/ and /furi/ board, a high volume of tripcode users, and a failed Wakachan proposal,⁴⁾ then /furi/ was split off around 2006. The website last mentioned a 'new site',⁵⁾ but it unceremoniously died in December 2010⁶⁾ and started redirecting to Lulz by the following year.

Following several DMCA requests,⁷⁾ “cho0b” moved /furi/ to “wtfur.org” around June 21, 2006,⁸⁾ a fake seizure notice was propped up⁹⁾ during their server migration, then it moved to “lulz.net” around August 25, 2006.¹⁰⁾ Several months later, “Arcturus” seizes the server in a coup, redirecting users to Sidechan at “sidechan.net” on December 1, 2006.¹¹⁾¹²⁾ This didn't last, so a furry-oriented booru called e621 was born.

Upon regaining control, more boards and features were added in 2007. A decade later, Lulz would experiment with Vichan at the “dev.lulz.net” subdomain on June 24, 2017.¹³⁾ However, the Wakaba server dies, so they promoted the Vichan instance on December 16, 2019,¹⁴⁾ but this also meant that Lulz would be returning to the controversial one-board approach. The website had eventually closed on September 15, 2025.

• /furi/ (Catalog)

• The website *allegedly* has a set of rules,¹⁵⁾ but the information is not easily accessible.
• Honestly, I have no way of verifying if “cho0b” is allegedly “Joseph Evers”, since the name was often used as an alias of "weev".^16)17)18) They have commented on “weev” before.¹⁹⁾
