The site, as the name implies, was focused on [[sharty:Cricketjak|Cricknetsov]], an edit of [[Kuz]] as a cricket, compressed like a Babyjak which was mildly popular in 2024. The site was hosted on the ProBoards forum engine from its inception date to January 22nd, 2026, where the domain would be moved to a new site running phpBB called crick.ct.ws.

The site is gone because someone brapped it up and it reached the 5GB infinityfree limit. The Splog board remained for a period of time as a complete DNB, and also shutdown when the Splog shut down. Most of the users migrated to the [[SoyBlog|soyblog]] as it is owned by a former namefag from the Cricky, Coalfarmer, and because Crickoot, the founder of the Cricky, has an account there.

== Pre-History ==

=== Origins of Cricknetsov & Cricket Culture ===
Sometime in early 2024 (presumably February - March), the Cricknetsov variant would be created on the [[Shemmy]] on the 14th of February 2024<ref>https://archive.ph/IqgxC Post >>53362</ref> although some claim the image was created on /ptb/ on [[soyjak.party]]. The difference in opinion is mostly dependent on what site you frequented.

* The first ever appearence of the decompressed Cricknetsov on the Jarty in December 2023 revealing that it was intended to be an alien, not a cricket.<ref>https://archive.ph/es7IA</ref>
* The creator of Cricknetsov appears in a thread in August 2024, and Crickoot is mentioned for the first time.<ref>https://archive.ph/EFoyg  (>>238064)</ref>

=== First mentions of Crickoot ===
In a Shemmy thread dedicated to cricketposting on the 11th of August 2024, a user would post "tru sell the site to crickoot".<ref>https://archive.ph/EFoyg#selection-1056.1-1101.29</ref>

== History ==
[[File:Crickdsfggh.png|thumb|239x239px|the Nusite homepage]]
=== Foundation and shilling ===
The first place the Cricky would be shilled to was the [[Soyjak.blog|Schlog]], [[Crickoot]] (under the alias "The Cricker") expected the post announcing it to be deleted, and himself banned for "splintering", even if that wasn't his goal. To his surprise, a few people ended up joining, as Schlog moderators such as bariqqh and DOLL would allow the site's advertisement to stay up on the grounds that the site was never advertised outside of the thread.<ref>https://archive.ph/607Dv</ref>

=== LeafChan board ===
Just a few days later, on the 4th of October, the Cricky would request a board be created on the dead imageboard leafchan dedicated to crickets, and it was added (no citation available as it was never archived.) Leafchan would fall as the Cricky continued on, however,

=== Interactions with [[The Kuzzy]] ===
After ages of inactivity (which is, to be fair, 99% of the Cricky's life), Crickoot would be browsing the Kuzzy until he saw the users of that website discovering the Cricky, attempting to establish a colony. Quickly, he made appearances in the thread and on the website.
=== The Appearance of [[Orchata]] ===
On the 23rd of July 2025, a user would join the site named Orchata, and would begin laying out ambitious plans involving reviving the Cricky, Orchata would be nearly as active as Crickoot (both users would disappear for weeks on end and return at random days, and that's just how it is on the Cricky).<ref name=":0">https://archive.is/I4kl6</ref> Orchata would engage in fierce combat with another user (posting as a guest) called "kys", involving brown cricket quoting. This happened notably in a thread where Orchata designed a Natejak variant to represent people who used the site.<ref>https://archive.is/fWKT7</ref>

Orchata would state that ''"I have no means to make this splinter hostile with the soysphere. I am still active Sharty afterall."''<ref name=":0" />, However, this has come under criticism as splinters' attempts to ally or even be neutral with the Sharty always end in the splinter getting botted. Also, the term 'soysphere' was used incorrectly as splinters are a part of the soysphere, and the soysphere encompasses every site about soyjaks or their derivatives.

=== The Endchan bunkers ===
On the 30th of September 2025, along with the 1 year update, 2 boards would be started on Endchan, /crick/- Cricket and /crol/- Crolchan 2002 serving as /soy/ and /pol/ equivalents for the Cricky. 

=== The 1-Year Update ===
On the 30th of September, 2025,the site would be updated, adding 2 new boards (/regi/, /vip/). A visual effect was added of cricknetsovs flying over your screen every once and a while, A cricket was also added spinning around your cursor. 

=== The Migration to phpBB ===
On the 22nd of January, 2026, Crickoot closed the website and opened a new forum hosted at Crick.ct.ws, running on the phpBB engine. He stated that he would've hosted it on his own servers, had he not been busy using it for something else. A [[Shrekchan.life|Nushrekchan]] user had requested that Crickoot migrated to PhpBB back in October 2025<ref>https://archive.is/o0dsU</ref>, Crickoot did agree with the idea but didn't do it until the new year.

=== [[Sidson.city|Sidty]]/[[The Sneedy|Sneedy]] Conflict involvement ===
On the day the Nu-Cricky (ct.ws) was founded, The drama between [[sidson.city]] and sneed.95.fyi already spilled over, due to Sneedyteens creating a visit (raid) thread on the Cricky. However, the Cricky was not raided (not as of the 24th of January 2026). Sidtrick, an admin on the Sidty joined the forums and began posting about how bad the Sneedy was, Later on, a Sneedy user simply calling himself "Sneedy" would join the forums and converse with Crickoot in much the same way, just against the Sidty instead. Crickoot has stated that he likes both sites, and will try to stay impartial, even if it leads to the Cricky forums being a battleground for the quarreling websites.

=== Migration to the SplinterBlog ===
On February 5th, 2025, the Cricky migrated to the Splinterblog, a blog site created by the co-owner of the Sneedy, Underwood.

It was so dead, the only post was from Coalfarmer, gegging at how dead it was while shilling the [[SoyBlog]].

=== Death ===
The NuCricky was shut down 2/18/2026, subsequently ending the Cricky as a whole, except the Splinterblog, where it is the deadest nigger baby ever.

==Old Boards==
*/crick/- Cricknetsov
Board dedicated to cricket Kuz edits.
*/qa/- Questions and Answers
Basically Sharty’s /qa/, but cricket/.
*/off/- Off Topic
Basically [[sharty:Yyyyyyy|/yyyyyyy/]] as all of the posts are nonsense.
*{{Lockedtext|/regi/- Religion}}
Dead on arrival. Pretty much nobody has posted here. Also locked as a result of domain change. 
*{{Lockedtext|/vip/- Very Important Posts}}
Janny board. Locked due to domain change.

=='''Current Boards'''==
*/crick/- Cricknetsov
Description: welcome to the crick cave

Board dedicated to cricket Kuz edits.
*/off/- Off my property
Description: Off topic and whatnot

Now more of a blog than nonsense these days. Equivalent now to Sharty’s /r9k/ instead of being equivalent to /yyyyyyy/. 
*/cmc/ - Cricknetsov MasterComputer
Description: It’s getting futuristic

A board which is very futuristic, extremely so. It has a futuristic esthetic and MasterComputer is a reference to a character in [[wikipedia:I_Have_No_Mouth_and_I_Must_Scream (video game)|IHNMAIMS]], a notable [[Troonslop]].

== Operation Alive Aryan Adult ==
Operation alive adult is Coalfarmer's operation to make the Cricky not dead.

So far, it has been mildly successful ever since it started on 1/31/2026 with the NuCricky having marginally more users and posts than the old cricky.

The operation involves advertising on every dead splinter and bunker to soak up their users and passerbys. <ref>https://archive.ph/1Lmp5</ref>

'''<big><s>(YOU) can help by joining the Cricky today!</s></big>'''

''This was a WIN! and the Nu-Cricky was revived by Coalfarmer and became an active alternative to the Shroom and Schlog. It now resides on the Splinterblog.''

== 'P Controversy ==
A user discovered that the pre-InfinityFree Cricky's banner had a 'p link embedded in it. Do not open any archive.ph links for a while as
Crickoot was unaware this happened. Essentially, whoever made this banner for him ended up falseflagging him years later.
Crickoot will check submissions more thoroughly now.
