'''incels.co''' (previously “incels.is” and before that '''incels.me''') is currently the largest conventional forum external to reddit in the English [[incelosphere]]. It was created by [[SergeantIncel]] on Nov. 7th, 2017, hours after the banning of /r/incels. Its status as an independent website offers its community flexibility and allows free speech in a way that would likely be censored on other forums, due to their politically correct speech. | '''incels.co''' (previously “incels.is” and before that '''incels.me''') is currently the largest conventional forum external to reddit in the English [[incelosphere]].

The style of posting on incels.co resembles 4chan, as it is a third iteration of [[4chan|4chan's]] [[r9k]] board, with the banned /r/incels being the second iteration. Its style of posting is impersonal, fast, jokey, and at times sociopathic, again like 4chan. | The style of posting on incels.co resembles 4chan, as it is a third iteration of [[4chan|4chan's]] [[r9k]] board, with the banned /r/incels being the second iteration.
