I've seen thousands of webms with sound and not a single one had a screamer in.

Spoiler abuse and screamers.
You don't want that don't you?

>>139585922
Fucking bullshit and not a legit reason.
Muh screamers are so ~2002.
>>139585676
Because you guys would start adding Damn Daniel and John Cena in every single fucking video.
>>139585922
amount of screamers on /gif/ and /wsg/ is so little its irrelevant
bet if you go to either board right now you wouldn't find a single on in any thread
although real bullshit here is webm's cap at 3mb when all other media across the board is set at 4. Moot was such an arbitrary fucking fag when implementing webms and I doubt hiro will change it any time soon
>>139585676
JOHN OLIVER FINDS A WAY
Moot didnt want screamers but has current owner said anything about them?
The real reason is 4chan is not YouTube. There's no need for every board to have full video. /gif/ etc are allowed because the content is relevant. You don't see people campaigning for flash on every board do you?
>>139586045
>Because you guys would start adding Damn Daniel and John Cena in every single fucking video.
It's like you are completely delusional.
I'm making webms myself and I've seen thousands of them on 4chan and outside.
Webms with screamers are so rare I don't even remember them, it's like statistically irrelevant.
People who think that screamers are the issue are not even watching webms with sound on /gif/ or /wsg/ and still believe in that bullshit.

>>139586234
Only thing that matters is Hiroyuki Nishimura's opinion on webms with sound.
Why hasnt he said "no I hate sounds" or something and put a stop to the discussion.
>>139585676
>>>/wsg/ is a really slow board, because bitch ass niggas like you refuse to leave their comfort zone.
>>139586176
hiro said link youtube if you want to show someone video with sound, he isn't going to change it.
>>139586258
What the fuck does Trump have to do with anything you retard? Are you seriously arguing that you want audio because one or two videos may benefit? Oh boy there's now audio isln your webm that I didn't even bother opening that's so necessary.
>>139586328
Webm was supposed to be an upgrade to the gif so your point is irrelevant.
It would also be wonderful if they allowed vp9 webms as well, cos, you know, quality codecs..
>>139586410
why allow webms at all then?
>you want show video go youtube
>>139585676
That webm should be criminal.
>>139585772
I don't really get this arguement, You could make this a non-problem by making an option for the existing extensions to start all webms muted.
>>139586418
im just saying you're arguing against your own interests
100% of this subs users would benefit from sound webms while increasing demand for moderation to keep screamers away

>>139586065
>Moot was such an arbitrary fucking fag when implementing webms and I doubt hiro will change it any time soon
webm's were added as an extension of gifs, and wasn't intended to be videos. Hiro also already gave his stance on this and I doubt he'll be changing it any time soon. It was

>>139586533

That statement is so retarded I don't even know where to begin. It IS a fucking video, plain and simple.
>>139586514
People already make all their webms the maximum filesize even though that's almost never necessary. Give them any more space and rip the servers and Hiroyuki's finances and it'll be 2004 downtime all over again.

That's not a valid analogy. A webm being muted isn't comparable to suffering from poor air quality or overheating.
>>139586634
Nice strawman, you sure showed me. 4chan is meant to be an image board and Hiro has shown he agrees with moot on this stance, deal with it.
>>139586505
>>139586561
Even before that you could set your browser to mute all webms.
So we aren't allowed webms with sound, but vocaroo threads are a-ok?
>>139586703
>That's not a valid analogy. A webm being muted isn't comparable to suffering from poor air quality or overheating.
There's not a single real reason to keep webm muted.
It's a stupid limitation just like .gif is a stupid and ineffective as fuck way to compress images from a video source.

Your webms are going be muted one way or another. If not by the site by our browsers. It's just that we'd prefer to keep board culture more unified.
There isn't a single reason to have sound other than "just because". Are you really so lazy you want someone to dump an episode for you? Do you want to share mp3s? Oh your laughing anime girls sure did enhance your post.

What does sound do to enhance your post? What have users been doing for the last 10+ years without this necessary thing? You have no reason other than just because.

Do you not get we're not living in 2004 anymore? Why are you arbitrarily limiting yourselves? Let's stop and think about why people post images in the first place:
1. To add flavour
2. Because it's fun
Why would people want audio in their webms?
1. To add flavour
2. Because it's fun
Its a wonder the human race has made any advancement with you luddites around.
>>139587227
Go lurk YouTube then retard. The reason you're browsing 4chan is because it offers something that other sites don't. Having everything do everything is retarded. Just upload your precious audio webm to one of the hundreds of other sites or in /wgif/ which people already do.
>>139587227
>comparing human advancement than to you wanting to be able to post moving images with sound just to probably shitpost with
Are you retarded? There is no reason for the site to change. There is no need to fix what isn't broken. People want it literally just because it is there, not for any other reason. We aren't limiting ourselves, we just don't think there is no reason to fucking change the way the system of 4chan works to please a bunch of idiots who just want to shitpost. I'd rather image sound be put back than fucking webms with sound.
>4chan is supposed to be an image board.
I WISH 4chan was a video board.
>>139586758
You can't imbed vocaroos, just like you can't imbed sound webms (except on the appropriate boards)
>>139587331

You guys clearly have some wierd investment in webms not doing one of their only two functions so I'm just kinda done here. It's not like Hiro is lurking anyway and it'll make a difference.Unless that is you Hiro.

I wouldn't mind you but you are also telling it like you have any right to say for 4chan which is also insulting.
Guys, guys, I've just learned we're no longer in 2004. I suddenly feel the urge to have my gif substitutes include squeaky voices and the occasional hood roll. I'm afraid I might start to have shit tastes in anime as well soon. Please send help.

>>139587676Yes.
>>139587717
> JUST FOR YOU
Logical fallacy.
More like it shouldn't be without sound "JUST FOR YOU" because you act like vocal minority against obvious benefits and your only argument is some retarded "muh screamers" shit. Which is already proved to be a complete myth on /wsg/ and /gif/ as I said already.
Ok, heres the thing. As /gif/ and /wsg/ already support sound webms, people can already link sound webms on ther boards, it just takes more effort. Effort is dumb.
>>139587787
The real argument is that 4chan is not YouTube. There is no reason to have video sharing outside of the two board that allow it just like there's no reason to have flash.
>>139587787
>your only argument
No, webm support was only ever added to be improved gifs. Why would you need any more than that? There is no reason to throw everything into a single pot, it doesn't suddenly make something good. Adding everything doesn't make something good nor is it a good idea. Rather than saying I'm a vocal minority, its more you are. Most people don't fucking care and would probably vote against it simply just to prevent shitposting abuse.
>>139587839
Yeah because linking an image or webm from another board is totally the comfiest idea, right.
>>139587866
>The real argument is that 4chan is not YouTube
That's not even an argument and you are stupid as a pile of stinking shit.
gif and webm is a compression from a video source and it's the same video only limited by size. Just because you cut sound from VIDEO it doesn't make it less VIDEO you dumb fucking subhuman retard.
Holy shit you dumb fucks are making me slightly upset for real.
>>139587866
But flash is shit, and if someone wants to share a 5 second video, they're not going to upload it to youtube..
>>139587933
That was my point. Linking from another board isn't comfy.
>>139587717
Sometimes a poster is so dense nothing short of analdevastating his shitposting with superior shitposting is going to convince him your position is the more sound one.
>>139587787
Vocal minority? /gif/ as example of users on /a/? Do you have any clue where you are? No minority or majority is anything but vocal. The userbase on /gif/ is well behaved and too busy fapping for any shenanigans. Welcome to /a/. Please choose your side in the any number of the many current jihads and enjoy your stay.

Upload it to one of hundreds of sites like jii.moe if sound is really that important.

>it also natively supports this other thing

Well that settles it for me. Who could disagree with so eloquently worded shitposting?
>Holy shit you dumb fucks are making me slightly upset for real.
On second though this must be trolls trolling trolls trolling...
On another note would you consider yourself left wing? The usage of "dumb fuck" as an insult disappeared about the same time /pol/ drove the left from the board. Recently I've been observing a small number of left wing positions returning though. I'm interested in discovering if calling someone a"dumb fuck" really is inherently left wing.
Goddamn it, I don't give a fuck about you all. Post more webms
>its a image sharing website
>why havent you added video support and sound ITS THE NATURAL PROGRESSION AND IS EVOLUTION
It's called having a theme retards.
>>139588192
Whoops I meant to type drove the left from the site not board.
>>139588215
Well we do have 4chan gold and silver accounts which is the natural extension of tripcodes so it's not so far fetched.
>>139588215
Then why is gif and webm is allowed, you dumb fuck? Both formats are used for compressing frames from a video source. It is VIDEO.
>>139588337
>gif is a video
Oh boy, now we are going into semantics.
Suggest a better gif that doesn't have sound and is supported by modern browsers. Webm was the correct choice as is not allowing sound.
>>139588471
>that doesn't have sound
Why is this a condition?
>>139588737
Because the only reason people are arguing for sound is because webm supports it.
How is this thread still alive? That sound guy must be the most asshurt looser on the whole board.
It's to replace gif with a similar thing, not to make 4chan youtube
/a/ needs webms with sound.
You can only post webms with sound if you have a 4chan Pass.

>>139592995
>gifs are video
Let's not get into semantics, you fucking retard. For all intents and purposes, most people don't consider gifs videos and consider them images. And the webms were added as to be high quality gifs. Who gives a shit about the fact its a video format, what matters here is the purpose of why it was added. People embedding youtube video means fucking nothing as well. What does that have to do with anything?
>people do something a lot so we should change everything to make doing that things easier despite the fact that thing is the opposite of the site its structure and theme
Are you retarded? People embed youtube videos to share them, it doesn't suddenly mean we should start fucking supporting .mp4 or sounds webms.
> It's right and you know it.
No it isn't. You are presenting an opinion as fact. Not all change is good you retard. The convenience features being made native was change and it was one of the worst changes done for the site. It is what made the cancer stronger. Why should you be allowed sound webms? Because you are entitled to it? You are no different to the cancer who think they have the RIGHT to shitpost and not get banned for it. You only want it because its there, despite the fact there is no reason to allow that feature and that feature goes against the theme of the site. As hiro put it, '4chan is a image board, not a video board'.
You are no different to the modern cancer, as you think the site should change, evolve and become something different and add things YOU want because you want them and you think you are entitled to these changes. 4chan is a image board and if you want to post sound webms ask for a video board or take the suggestion that has been thrown around since forever and make your own forum.
Calling me the cancer because I have a different opinion and don't think we need stupid changes makes you the cancer and no different to generalfags who call everyone with opinions they don't agree with as shitposters
