I would like to hijack this thread to post an issue i've just run into:

I went to post an article as a new thread but was told i can't have more than 5 active threads on this board.

I think that is a bit too low for such a slow board. My first thread was on December 18th which means i've posted 1 thread every 4 days, on average. Is that really just too much, too fast for this board to handle?

Don't get me wrong, I like the pace of this board, it's not like a 24/7 crack-cocaine news service or anything. It's a place where we can actually discuss news beyond its mass-media lifespan.

I just wish the limit was a little higher so we could keep discussion up. This was the article, btw:

>>China stocks trading halted after rout

>>
>>14747
Yeah just meet the friendly vetrinarian, is all.
>>14748
This post isn't about cats...
>>
>>14750

You're not wrong. And I apologize, I'd separate my post from the cat news but I literally can't.
>>
>>14740
i would post my cat but we aren't allowed pictures
>>
>>14754
> but I literally cat
FTFY
>>14755
Somebody has got to change the no picture rule around here...
>>
>>14756
>Somebody has got to change the no picture rule around here.
its probably to stop people making comics again. id post a picture of one as an example but we aren't allowed pictures
>>
>>14748
The issue has been mentioned on /qa/ before. Send feedback. I did.
>>
>>14756
IMO the no-image feature is the only thing keeping this board from becoming shit.
>>
>>14766

I agree. Making people write ensures they can't just dress up their shitty arguments with a pretty picture platitude and act like they are relevant to the conversation. Now they have to put their 4-word-no-thought opinion in an honest 4 words and be judged for it.
>>
>>14748
I'm just glad /pol/ hasn't hijacked this board. Some good discussion going on here.
>>
>>14781
I think there is a good mix of /pol/ and not /pol/ here, agreed. We all (hopefully) have a mutual interest in knowing what is going on in the world.
>>
>>14786
There are still some people apparently who are trying to derail the board with stories like OPs and shitposts like the guy who was spamming porn links earlier (it got deleted at least). I don't know why some people hate /news/.
>>
>>14786
I was hoping the mods would take more action against irrelevant posts but it is 4chan after all.
>>
>>14786
Im so tired of memes. So tired of everywhere i look, a comment being a sarcastic meme.
>>
>>14786
I just want to make it clear, that anon did not say anti-/pol/. He just identified /pol/ as being a majority.
>>
This article could use more cute cat pics
>>
>uhh I want to post images wtf is a text board
>muh may mays

Here we go again. This is a text board for a reason. To sum up why, its because this board isn't shit.
>>
>>14781
It boggles my mind how many people use /pol/ boogeyman as an insult. It's like you don't even have any arguments. I could very well be glad that /reddit/ didn't hijack this board.
>>
>>14820
This is the best we can do

No, fuck off.

It works better if you use periods instead of underscores:

>>14832

but /pol/ was hijacked by stormfront-posting lunatics

/n/ used to be a place where reasonable discourse occured, then a few raids to stormfront led to some backwash

4chan was already full of weak minded copycats who got an adrenaline rush out of being able to post the word nigger. So the stormfront posters managed to find a place, and what started out as ironic bullshit turned into a weird libertarian racist ideology perpetuated by NEETs who never stopped posting.

>but /pol/ was hijacked by stormfront-posting lunatics
eh, not so much anymore

all the 'shemitah' tinfoilfags and all the gamergate shit scared them off over the past few years
>>
>>14999
Fair enough. I've not been there for a while. I know its got the shitey poster IDs though so my instinct is that its a shithole
>>
>>14961
I'd work better if mods allow this board to have [sjis] tags.
Or better yet, if they bring back actual textboards.
>>
>>14740
the most interesting article I've read today.
>>
>>15003
they are /b/tier level currently. they do point out some interesting news, but very rarely you will find an interesting discussion
>>
>>14740
It also mentioned this is why some horses have patchy fur too.
