Well shit. Guess they finally gave up.
This is bad. This is really bad.
No we can use /a/ like it was meant to be used!
rip in piss archive.
For real?
Fuck.
>>131907572
That's it! The end is here
>>131907572
Why didn't they just drop some boards if it was too much? This is just like when Easymodo died.
Hooray! Now we can finally use Nishimura's 4chan search function, sponsored by Racequeen!
RIP /ghost/
>>131907572
I'm not just scared that the archive might be gone for good. I'm scared that the archive, if it's ever brought back, might have to delete images again. Which is a fate worse than death.
>>131907868
You can't search images on that.
YOU SHOULD'VE JUST DROPPED /v/!

How sad that it should end like this.
Guess it's just one of them, God knows why they decided to do it for every board.

Keep your ogres out of /a/.
The archive has been shit since green-oval.
It's all /r9k/'s fault.
>>131907989
"The Web server does have some record of the requested URL, but now believes that this URL should be serviced by a different Web server. The 410 error indicates a complete dead-end. The URL is effectively useless, and there is no clue as to an alternative Web server or URL which might be used instead.
If the URL really should be alive, then there is something fundamentally wrong with the setup of the Web server."
It's not over yet.
What happens?
i have to go to school pleasse im out of time.
THIS ALL COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF ONLY DAIZ HAD BOUGHT THE ARCHIVE.
>>131907572
Even Woxxy said archiving /v/ and /vg/ was impossible and extremely difficult to break even.
>>131908092
Daiz did buy the archive. I would show you the thread where he said he did, but the archive is down.
I think that was about 15 minutes before it died actually.
>>131908132
So what you're saying is it's his fault? Do we need to add it to the list?
Fuck.
>>131908156
Surely not. What would he gain from killing the archive?
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Good riddance. Archive is the tool of the devil. The original charm of 4chan was the fact that all posts vanished and could not be retrieved. Archives basically turned 4chan into a forum.
>>131908092
Someone needs to update the list.

Lurk more, newfag.
4chan always had an archive.
Easymodo's owner just couldn't manage to get the first 4chan archive (not that shitty one where you have to vote to get your thread archived) owner to dump his database when that archive went down and so disappointed, Easymodo's owner than created easymodo.
Please no
Just stop archiving /v/ altogether.
When was the last time /v/ did something worth archiving?
>>131908304
Tfw I can't type in "delicious brown exhentai" and get doujins

This is what happens when you try to archive too much. Stop archiving /v/ and /vg/
>tfw you're no longer able to accuse someone of shitposting and prove it by linking to the archive
Where were you when Fantano killed the archive?
Maybe we should ask warosu or 4plebs to do it.

>tfw now I can't search an image in the archive and save it with a 133x filename and then pretend I'm an oldfag when I repost it
>>131908331
The archive is the only tool we have to keep /v/ from entering the void. if you remove it the place will go under and i can guarantee that we will all take /a/ with us making sure that this place becomes hell on earth where even your thoughts on anime will be derailed.
>>131908363
The old archives rarely ever went down.
Foolz also never went down until it started archiving /v/.
Funny enough some months after Woxxy started archiving /v/, he ended up quitting.
>>131908457
Nobody gives a shit about /v/ ever.
>>131908453

>>131908514
Well, the images saved from the archive don't go that back.
Where are you going when newmoot kill the site again, anon?
Browsing the archives and pretending I'm a time traveller, imagining what I'd say to the past anons is such a big part of my life. Whatever am I going to do without it?
>>131908535
Just generate a UNIX timestamp from 2004 and you're set.
>>131908535
Which is why it's pointless for the purpose.
Just take some small-resolution jpg with lots of artifacts, preferably a reaction image with a blued background, think up a number from the range 04-05, and pretend it's authentic.
Just make sure that if it's an anime screenshot that the anime was already released at the time.
Just stop archiving the videogame boards.
I'd hate to lose access to all the Live TL and storytimes.

I have literally no idea how that shit got there. I never really renamed files I saved from 4chan. It's probably that I accidentally added that shit at some point. Oh well. Can't use this image as "proof" now.
I'll leave in shame.

>>131908718
Waifufags.
And ERPers.
And fujos and other gayfags fans of Free.
And easily baited Yurifags.
Of course, the worst part is that we have no place to go when 4chan goes down.
>Also, we won't be going anywhere anytime soon.
;_;
I don't get why you guys are so hung up about being unable to be identified as an oldfag. It's super fucking easy when you talk about shows that you've seen airing, like you know someone's a newfag instantly when they say some retarded shit like "Just watched Kyoukai no Kanata!! One of the best animes amirite?"
>>131908891
We don't want them either. They just keep coming.
>>131908748
You are missing the point of why spoonfeeding is discouraged.
You aren't supposed to do things for others that an adult should be able to do for themselves (spoonfeeding is done for babies) When people are lazy, call them out on it. When they can convince you that they actually tried to employ what resources we all have at our disposal, then you help.
Archive is just one of many resources.
>>131908883But then that would mean other anons being able to identify you.
>>131908861
>search for ghost posts.
>most of them are Freefags and waifufags.
Why do they even use it when they have a thread up?
>>131908954
Less shitposting.
>>131908804
I trust you implicitly.
>>131907572
That's what happens when a bunch of newspapers start linking people to your little site.
>>131908951
I have too many images for anons to remember my filenames. Even I can't remember most of them, but I know where what image is when sorted by time.
>>131908954
It's for containment.
>>131908911
Honestly I feel that "just finished" threads are among the worst kinds of threads, but for a different reason: I feel that 4chan is not the place to broadcast to the world that you've just finished a series, and very frequently OPs tend to "blog" about a series they just finished. Honestly I'd rather let it be that they start a thread which simply says "what does /a/ think of X?" and leave it at that.

What the fuck do you people expect. To write a short summary of the series and thats it? People "blogging" their opinions about anime is a good thing, this is what the board is for, you dumb shit, discussing anime.
pls no
not again
>>131909008
Containment archive for containment threads. Kind of silly if you think about it.
>>131909089
No Tumblr filenames? However, depending on the thread, most people don't give a shit anymore.

>>131909115
It's better that waifufags keep their shit in /ghost/ or there'll be 24/7 generals in /a/.

>write a short summary of the series
For what purpose?
We probably know the show already.
>>131908841
We'll finally be free?
The biggest loss is the One Page Threads.
I loved them, but they would usually be at a time when I can't come doe to various reasons or sometimes they would start when I'm here but die during the night so I would leave it open in a tab and just look them up when I open the browser next time.
Now, it's kill. Fucking moot.
>>131909145
Pretty sure there are 24/7 waifu threads already.
>>131909101
4chan isn't a blog. And you're missing my point, since blogging and discussion are two separate things. Those threads tend to go like "So I just finished X and I think it was [insert long paragraph about what anon thinks about the series]", as if the anon was writing for a review site.
>>131909168
I thought they're now banned except for Wednesdays?
>>131909168
Nah they have their "Waifu Wednesday" once a week.
>>131909201
They have the "waifu wednesday" and the random "waifu thread" every day, it's the same shit.

>>131909187
It's a way to start a thread, you shit. OP giving an actual opinion allows for some actual discussion, as people can argue for and against his opinion. It's a much better way to start a thread than yet another lazy "X thread!".

Well what the fuck do you want him to say? That sounds like a discussion post to me. The "I just finished" isn't necessary but I don't see the problem.
Now those "I'm about to watch X" threads I really don't understand.
>>131909223
It's different because it's not a general waifu thread and some are for waifus in different series. /ghost/ kept the whole bunch contained when it wasn't Wednesday.
>>131909256
I hope the archive is stored somewhere.
>>131909187
>"So I just finished X and I think it was [whatever]
And that's wrong because...
They want to talk about something, they share their opinion, and we discuss it together.
How is that any different from a "X is starting in a few minutes. Get in here.", and then people share their opinions in the thread and discuss whatever is airing?
>>131907572

>>131909316

I could post some examples, but you know, that's why this thread exists.
Does it even matter?
After the last fuck-up all the images before 2013 were purged from the database.
The thumbnails wouldn't even show up anymore.
Just think about it, everything of value that wasn't saved before 2013 was completely lost, it's already gone, vanished.
Seriously, why even bother with this piece of shit if only the stuff from 2 years ago is archived.
Just let it all burn.

You might as well ask to ban all posts where the user states his opinion because he's "blogging".
When people say blogging isnt welcome here they mean the "hey /a/ how was your day" threads that used to be very popular here years ago, not the kind where you state your opinions.
inb4 the archive was bought by Hiro and will make them payed access.
>>131909340
You being a tripfag is far more similar to blogging than people giving their opinion in the OP. You shouldn't be on /a/.
>>131909235

The aggregate of our cum and suffering, thousands of waifu wars, speculah, and general threads, every oldfag and newfag, every troll and baka, every scanlator and fansubber, every rornery valentines, every moefag and yurifag, every tripfriend and anonymous, every post and image in the history of our board archived there-on those three characters, 410.

I was talking about the old archives that would archive threads if enough people requested for them
>>131909621
>>131909842
That would be the name, not the trip.
>>131910055
This.
>>131910013
Please no, that will just make retards proxyfag to get their unfunny memethreads archived.
>>131910082
Yes, it was a bad idea back then too.
>>131910067
Read it in his voice.

>it's back
>/a/ board is added
>we can finally leave this normalfags shithole
If only.
>>131910067
Fuck you. It's going to come back The data will be restored The archives will be back soon.
it can't end like this.
>>131910067
Now that you put it like that, I feel like every post of mine has become meaningless.
>>131910025
I wonder how that last thread is going to be, what is going to be 4chan's last post
>>131910134
Poke it with a stick, see if it reacts.

It will happen someday.
>>131910134
Fuck. Made my heart skip a beat.

We took it for granted. Now it's ogre.

You can still read the thread on the 4chan archives, provided you remember the OP.
>>131910157
It'll be two people arguing who is better out of Asuka and Rei.
>>131910172
>you'll just type "b"
