it's an incredibly sticky and complex situation, ironically rapeape isn't actually helping matters much by complaining about that on twitter (if anything he's emboldening the attackers by letting them know 4chan IS hurting from it) but he was also relatively open that he'd run out of options, before moving on to saying gamergate got trump elected and western civilization depended on 4chan being an unusable shithole of off-topic posts and bad moderation
hiro is most certainly not willing to really touch the site in any way, and just wants it as passive income in a similar manner to how he treated 2chan before it was seized from him by jim watkins

they COULD but they won't because rapeape is a moron and has heavily discouraged all the old working mod practices
