that pomegranate's dead to me, even more dead than usual
Where have you been? That banner had been around for at least a couple months or longer. I saw it a couple times when browsing either /m/, /tg/, and /co/.

Can confirm, I've seen it on /ic/ too. Nothing new.

So one thing left my mind and didn't ask. So the idea that moot essentially told 4chan to back off discussing Gamergate, was moot trying to do 4chan a favor and not get raided/beat down by the SJW pricks? Or was he a beta all along and also got sucked into the SJWs frontal black hole?

If this is accurate, moot has officially gone of the deep end
Hold up? Are we talking about post limit before a thread auto-sages, or an actual hard post limit? If the former, that's always been in effect. Some boards actually get a 300 post limit before auto-sage, while bigger boards have a 500 post limit before auto-sage kicks in. All the auto-sage means is it won't get bumped up anymore when someone replies, meaning it dies an eventual death/deletion. If the latter, then a sh'itstorm is going to ensue yet again.
When did THIS happen? I'm sure I'm able to post more than 5 times a day on the same IP. Know what? Lemme test this right now.
*Nope no post limit on IP. Made 8 posts and had no problems after #5.

According to other mods and his relationship with his gf who works in gawker it sounds like he's doing this for SJW reasons. TO be honest it doesnt even matter 4chan lost a lot of respect for not supporting the discussion which was anything but irrational. The entire movement is still on an up swing with more and more people changing sides, especially after rock paper shotgun has essentially started begging for money.
Much more serious issue:

He meant that, statistically, if there are 100 people posting, the average would get 5 posts. And no, if you were around prior to 2007, you would know that at one point, 4chan was a great place.

Might want to go back and reread the post. Its 500 per IP supposedly. So if 100 people use the Same IP, it averages to 5 per person.

Everyone is bound to say X place back in year Y was great. All a matter of when you entered.

HURP I R DUMB.
I don't know about that then. But then again. if you need to post more than 500 times a day on 4chan, or any site in general, I'd be questioning your use of your time. Now if we're talking universities/campuses I can see the problem. It's definitely really bad an issue for more public places, hardly an issue with private homes and such. Well heck, if nothing else you can always use your phone to make smaller 4chan posts but use the campus computers for larger posts.
I do however agree a post limit per IP at all is really odd. It's like Moot wants to drive away certain users, or make people shell out money to continue posting.

I can't wait until October 1st hits and people start leaving 4chan. Meanwhile it looks like some people still think after tons of Gone Home posts that nothing's wrong with 4chan...what?

Sort of, but "4chan was never good" is the worst meme, particularly because it's not only annoying, it's untrue. 2006 and prior, /b/ was the best board on the site, but, the difference between post quality between now and then isn't even in question, if you browsed for a single day you know there was a huge difference; pomegranateposters didn't really exist in the same sense as now and the few that were around were banned quickly, trolls existed still but they weren't there to be annoyances, they were there to be comic relief, in a class clown-esque manner.
/v/ actually discussed video games, holy pomegranate. In fact, they banned people that didn't. /a/ was good up until the /jp/ split, with the few exceptions being the airing days of incredibly popular shows on there like TTGL and CG, which were still pretty fun up until a few years ago when the site most likely hit 90% underaged. At this point /b/ is probably at least 50% under 15, and age really does factor in to the quality of posters on a fast site like 4chan.
From 2004-2006, the demographic of /b/ had a bit of 20-30 in it but it was mostly middle aged dudes for some reason, the broken, angry, bitter kind that I will someday become, and they were always hilarious as pomegranate to just listen to. I'm convinced a friend of my dad's used it a long time ago simply because he acts exactly like them; all three of his kids are deadbeats and he knows it/talks about it constantly, because their mom got custody and she is a drug addicted, gambling addicted deadbeat as well, he's been divorced multiple times, and he makes a mockery of it every day just to move ahead with his life. My dad sent me a link to a craigslist dating article he made titled something like "I'm a terrible person and you probably shoudn't date me", and it just reminded me so much of those people. Interesting to note, he got 2 replies on that article, LOL.

Kinda sad the SJWs being put under the microscope are from 4chan (was really hoping they weren't there, infecting the place with their drivel). But on the other hand this'll be great ammunition to use against them, not to mention 10 years of prison time is a serious issue.
