What happened to this board? When did it all go so wrong? It used to be one of the best, nowadays you get the same shit 24/7
good stuff attracts more people.
the more people you have, the more chances you have of finding the wrong people.
more wrong people, more chances of fucking it up.
people are more likely to turn stupid than smarter and are easily influenced by the majority.
once it's fucked it's fucked.
All the good oldfags left and now it's flooded with 18-22 year olds.

This desu baka senpai. I can barely tolerate coming to 4chan entirely.
Stop romanticizing the past.
This board was always shit.

the majority of people will only have helpful information to mainstream problems. the msot mainstream 'problem' is relationshit. so even though everything thats needed to be said has been said, we keep saying it cuz people come in asking. and its not exactly WRONG of them ,but peopel with more obscure problems are less likely to have their threads seen by people who actually know how to answer.
r9k started leaking
This place has always been
>Tfw no gf
>Le upset amphibian
>How do I tell girl I like her
>Bait
And the rare good thread

The sad part is (aside from the seasonal influx) this board has been relatively good lately (past few months).
I rarely make threads but I get aolid advice when I do. It's probably because they have nothing to do with
>tfw no gf
>I'm neet pls help
>guys I'm sad :(
> no gf
> how to communicate using words
> basic questions about the opposite gender because my parents kept me locked in a box my entire life
It seems like nobody on the board has ever even been outside.
Ask a super simple question about catching a flight or something and they wont have a single clue.

Plenty of great advise handed out (yes there is bait and canned propaganda too) however way too often OP only wants encouragement as they throw themselves off a cliff and will not listen.

/r9k/ decided that this would make a good place to spread their poison.
Two things happened.
1. /soc/ was created, moving all of the rate threads over there, heavily reducing traffic
2. Mods started moderating no trolling/racism -- posting shit threads thus became acceptable
Now here we are
