Why don't people just say otaku instead of weeaboo?
Weeaboo and otaku aren't the same thing. Just like being a fan of anime isn't the same as being a weeaboo or an otaku.
>>436240
They may not be the same thing, but they're used in the same way, and that's what matters.
Because an otaku is actually Japanese, while a weaboo is not Japanese, but thinks Japanese things are really cool (and/or superior to non-Jap alternatives) solely because they're Japanese.
They are often very similar in how they live and act, but not always. And the distinction between one actually being Japanese and the other wanting to be Japanese (Using a flawed definition of what it means to be Japanese most of the time) is pretty important.
Anyone wanna see pics of old 4chan?
>>436185
nah
>>436185
Sure. I collect old screenshots from 2003-2007. Have about 1,500 and would love to expand my autistic collection.

What's our boy been up to lately? why is he such a better admin than moot was?

>What's our boy been up to lately?
Putting ever more / ever more intrusive ads on 4chan.
How is he better? He's pretty much nonexistent. Also, I agree on intrusive ads an stricter mods isn't making things better.
>>436316
He was active a month or two again, but the problem is that his internet is fucked right now. He's using some sort of portable wi-fi
(Serious question) Why are underage users banned?
>>435725
Because this is an 18+ website which contains adult material
Not all sections are adult oriented
>>435725
I mean, I came here at 14 and have been here 10 years, I've never seen a reason not to allow underage people on. The place is a shithole anyway, not like it'll change much.
Anyone else disappointed in how far /a/ as fallen to waifufags? I'm not complaining, it's just that waifu shit used to be just one of many experiences you could have on the board, now it's easily 90% of threads there. They other 10% being a mixture of generals and futile attempts at actual discussion.
What happened? Did everyone except the greasy NEETS vacate the place?
Oh and before you claim /a/ was "always like this", fuck off because it wasn't. It may have had bouts with cancer but never as bad or as consistent as this.

I don't mind the videos themselves but you're pushing the advertising a little too far.
>>435550
That video has been posted many times and it always made /a/ butthurt
It's by the same guy who made the video about leaving 4chan

Anon, you clearly have a fucking virus, because I don't have ad blocker on and don't have anything like that.

Does anyone else here find Christopher Poole oddly appealing?
>>435373
A little
Nope.
>>435373
I do.
I'm a guy by the way, and I want his cock in my ass.
>first 4 rows of a board's catalog are made up of generals
What are some other indicators of a shitty board?
>>435251
When a board has /r9k/ written at the top
>>435252
#REKT
When it's a red board.
Do you think memes aren't as good as they used to be? Or better than ever?
link to vid?
>>435235
Sure thing famalam. Great vid IMHO.

I think they each used to be their own unique thing (for the most part). Now, everything is just a variation on the same meme (like ______posting).

It had nothing to do with /pol/. It was 4 or 5 faggots from 8gag who were whining about Peggy Noonan.

You can't post nsfw stuff in sfw places on 4chan, but I'm here wondering who even uses 4chan at Work or in front of their family or whatever
Nevermind, I just saw a post that is similar and a whole lot better than mine, ignore this
The notion that "there is nobody who would ever use 4chan in mixed company" is one of those affectations of "board culture" that ruins this place.
>HEH HEH, WHO WOULD EVER BE AT WORK OR IN FRONT OF THEIR MOM, TALKING ABOUT SPORTS OR VIDEO GAMES?! HAHA IMMA POST TRANSSEXUAL PORN ON ONE OF THE BLUE BOARDS TO MAKE THIS POINT VERY CLEAR!
NSFW content is generally cancerous and off topic. For what purpose should you be allowed to post porn on a board about cooking board? Or a travel board? It makes no sense unless you want to spam off topic images and derail discussions for no good reason, kinda like those furfags back in the day.
An hiro please ban all discussion of
e-celebs and "Video game culture"
>>434683
difine celeb bell end.
>>434686
It's flooding the board and needs to be banned or contained in /Trash/ or /b/
>>434683
>ban e-celebs
yes
>and video game culture
no, that's actually relevant
>your board's archives are down AGAIN
I can't view my old shitposts on the jay
>>434657
You can always make new ones!
Desustorage is shitting itself in this very moment.
It's been nearly 13 years and 4chan still holds some influence over the Internet. In the last year alone 4chan caused an entire movement about corruption in video games or some shit and spawned Pepe, possibly the most prominent meme this turn of the millennium.
For just how long will 4chan continue to influence Internet culture?
>>434623
Fuck off.
Yet it was not 4chan, but Reddit that was responsible for Undertale winning numerous game of the year awards. How's it feel becoming slowly irrelevant?
>>434623
4chan didn't cause or spawn any of that. Stop believing every click bait hitpiece you read.

Will the 4chan mods ever grow out of their Leftardism?
On /pol/, everything is to the left
>he battles the left
>on the internet
I've never understood why people are actually AGAINST the left on this site. Like, I literally never see any explanation. Just someone that yells FUCK YOU LEFTIE SCUM any time a particularly reasonable post is made.
I'd be open to hearing an explanation, though I suspect there isn't actually one.
