Kenny 4 Prez is a legendary thread, one of the great spam threads.
Begun by ranar simply as a tribute to his friend, Kenny Strife. Famously, the three options in the poll were "yes," "no," and "spam." Even more famously, Kenny is well-known to have himself voted for spam. The thread therefore may in fact be one of the earliest to use the concept of a "comedy option."
The thread was generally a linchpin of the socialization of RR, forming a sort of secret society. This concept was eventually solidified when Kenny began to make a comic based on the thread, using the current posters in the thread.
Being such a social thread, and having had such a long life, it is essentially no more than a gigantic threadjack.
The beginning of the end for the thread involved a drunken dare by Giboc, then-mod of RR. In a move similar to, albeit far weaker than, his early deletion of RR, Giboc agreed to lock three random threads based on numbers given to him by people in chat. K4P was one of them. Although not removed completely from the subforum, the act caused a chain of events which led to Giboc's second removal as mod. The replacement chosen was Kenny Strife himself.
As the point of the thread was to elect Kenny Strife to a position of power within an undefined scope, this action seemed to render the thread as little more than a victory party. When K4P returned to action, it began to lose steam, the conversation focusing more on Katamari Damacy than anything else.(more..)
