So is this the guy that created, sold, and then called for the banning of 8chan?

Yeah, it's him. The owner is Jim Watkins now.

And now Watkins voluntarily took the site down? These Watkins quotes are strange.

"The website has been offline voluntarily for the last week,"

"It's really really sad. Please don't blame me."

"I want them to understand that we have nothing to do with this crazy violence that's been happening,"

"I want them to understand what's been going on because it's obviously a smear by the press."

since 8ch really did take down the content fast, it really is a smear. Especially as instagram was the prime host.
