'''Wizchan''' is a website focused on [[wizardry]]. It was created by someone named, "Mr. Pacific". The first major admin was [[Fredrick Brennan]] aka [[hotwheels]], who went on to admin [[8chan]]. Wizchan was started in 2014 as a copy of [[4chan]] and [[2chan|2chans]] bulletin board software, except designed only for adult virgins. A [[wizard|'wizard']] in the [[incelosphere]] refers to a joke which describes how an adult male virgin transforms into a wizard with magical powers after age 30. Therefore "wizchan". | '''Wizchan''' is a website focused on [[wizardry]]. It was created by someone named, "Mr. Pacific".

Though still part of the [[incelosphere]], the forum is pretty hostile to incels who express that involuntariness. The forum was mainly defined by it's role in various e-drama like Gamergate, and therefore is more filled with culture-warriors and [[astroturfing|astroturfers]] rather than actual incels. This site owner is also hostile to incels, filtering all mention of the word [[incel]] to [[crab]]. | Though still part of the [[incelosphere]], the forum is pretty hostile to incels who express that involuntariness.
