Editing Soot (section)

====New boards added, radio silence from Soot====

On July 17, Soot made [[Suggest/ Thread No. 6187|a thread]] on Soyjak.party's /suggest/ board offering to create a new board and asking Chuds to reply with some board ideas. After hearing some of the Chuds' suggestions, Soot created a Strawpoll for Chuds to vote on which board should be added; this was later replaced with a second Strawpoll with updated options. When the "/nate/" option emerged victorious, Soot added it, along with two other boards, /x/ and /caca/, on July 20.

Immediately after the boards were created, it became apparent that /nate/ was not working as intended. The board, which was created to contain off-topic posts, failed to stop the Minecraft players from spamming /soy/ with their complaints about the [[Soyjakparty Minecraft Server|Minecraft server]].<ref>soyjak.party catalog, archived on July 25, 2021. Most of the natespam is on the lower half of the 'log. https://web.archive.org/web/20210725213248/https://soyjak.party/soy/catalog.html</ref> Not only did Minecraft players continue Minecraft-posting and [[14nate higgers88|Nate]]-posting on /soy/, their posts also remained up, completely untouched by soyjak.party moderators. This, combined with Soot's complete cessation of interacting with the Party, drew criticism from some Chuds;<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/https://soyjak.party/soy/res/142853.html</ref> some even believed that soyjak.party had become completely unmoderated and had been abandoned by Soot.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/https://soyjak.party/soy/res/142903.html</ref>

On January 30, 2022, this period of inaction was later exposed to be the result of Soot's dissociative identity disorder when it was revealed that [[Nate is soot|Soot and Nate are actually the same person]].<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20220130113247/https://soyjak.party/soy//res/307770.html</ref><ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/jackbritt/comments/ewgrn6/dear_ladies_did_you_know_your_boobs/ ([https://archive.today/InudC archived])</ref>[[File:7 17 2022 soot retirement.jpg|thumb|Soot's retirement message]]
