Your life depends on this captcha. What do you do?
not solve it
>>429428
This.
Remain forever deathless so long as the captcha exists.
The normal 'street sign' captchas work fine, it's the one with street names that are doomed to fail.
At least, that's what my experience has been. I don't get the normal 'street sign' ones often.
When is 4chan going to adopt a like/dislike system?

Didn't they do that for april fools day one year? I might be getting my april fool jokes mixed up.
>>429432
No, but I know what you're thinking of. There was a post to Facebook button and it actually worked. It was hilarious because people tried it as a joke thinking it wouldn't do anything and then they ended up letting all their friends know what they posted on 4chan. Probably one of Moot's greatest trolls.

idk, they should bring it back though makes more sense, many reply posts aren't even images, they are just saying kek n shit like
As you know, many boards have very severe problem with posting quality. Dumping images, single-sentence statements of opinion ("I love my waifu", "your taste is shit") have become ubiquitous through many boards, and the Sage feature has become nearly irrelevant. It's a big enough problem that, at present, it most likely isn't practical for users, janitors, or moderators to address every individual shitpost on a case-by-case basis.
For that reason, I'd like the Hiro, /qa/, and the Mod team to consider the idea of implementing an automatic...

There is a direct relationship between post's length and its visible quality. The longer a post is, the easier it is to recognize whether it's a shitpost (or spam), and the shorter a post is the less likely it's of to be of any worth to the board whatsoever. Someone who can't support their opinion with anything worthwhile will be less able to write a lengthy post without filling it with obvious tells or flaws, making it easier for people to disregard, refute, or report them. Longer posts inherently take more effort to write, making people more likely...

What in the hell could possibly be wrong with an image dump thread?
This is still an imageboard you know.
>>429433
Generals were originally banned specifically because they were nothing but image dumping.
They're also usually fast enough to hit the image limit without needing to be constantly bumped to the first page in the process.
If you believe that every board is meant to house image dumps then why does the image limit exist? My suggestion wouldn't ban them anyway, it would just stop people from bumping them to the front page.
Discussion speed is how many posts a given topic may create within a given amount of time. That may be spread out over several threads or focused in a single one.
What happens when you have a topic that interests half of /a/ and limit it to a single sticky (like Guts getting off the boat recently)?
The sticky moves at an unreadable pace. Shitposting is inevitable.
Having too many posts per minute in one thread is a bad idea.
Popular topics need a multitude of threads. Imprisoning half the community into a single thread is ridiculous.
What happens when you have very little discussion and multiple threads (something that may happen with any unpopular manga as anons wouldn't assume that anybody else might be trying to discuss it at the same time as them)?
Multiple threads drifting towards page 11.
Topics that have barely anybody interested in them should not be spread out. There is nothing wrong with deleting duplicates of slow threads.
The problem with generals is what happens when they have exhausted their topics. Differently from normal threads they are not permitted to die off. Instead they are kept alive through image dumping, non-discussion and immediate replacement upon passing the bump limit. It is at this point that mods need to get active and delete them. There is no point to a thread that exists just for the purpose of existing. It is also taking up valuable space (one of 160 slots) and it makes it impossible to discuss a particular topic without having to deal with a mini-community that is exceedingly estranged from /a/ as a whole.
>>429354
This is a problem on many boards. It isn't specific to /a/. Mods already know, but can't or won't or haven't gotten around to doing anything.
can we unfilter "desu" now?
it's not just a black people meme, it's important to brits too
baka desu senpai
fuck the brits

hahaha no, no we can't. ever.
especially now that you've asked.

>implying mods aren't sugar daddys themselves
>>429291
Look up what sugar relationships are. Then realize what a moron you are. These are hookup threads like any other, just a certain subtype. For example, dd/lg is quite similar and there is an overlap.
Even those that are more interested in online-only things, the rule refers to camwhoring. This is a private relationship.
Why the fuck are fitness generals on a fitness board being deleted? WHY THE FUCK ARE ALTERNATIVE SPORTS LIKE OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTING AND POWERLIFTING GETTING DELETED OFF /ASP/?
WE DEMAND THAT ALL THE MODS/JANITORS INVOVLED ON FIT AND ASP BE REMOVED AND PERMA BANNED FOR LIFE FOR BEING DUMBASSES
That behavior is killing /fit/
>>429290
>WE DEMAND
Take a number and sit down, /fit/friend, you're in line behind half a dozen other boards.
Why is discussion of age of consent banned from the politically incorrect board?
the "politically incorrect board" should be entirely deleted. if pedos go there, there is only more reason to delete pol imo .....

Waiting for you finish the sentence
Because they are afraid of the truth

you truly were the last bastion of free speech and originality, far ahead of your time
Is this It? This the place where the anime raids all over /pol/ are coming from? Fucling stop. Keep to your containment boards you utter subhuman weaboos

>/tv/ was never the 'last bastion of ... originality' you dweeb
I think we've been made into a country of imbeciles.
Do you
?

dumb phoneposter
I thought you should all know the truth here since all you do is complain.
The truth is that this website and every board including this one is fine as they are and generate unique traffic better than other sites.
Any attempt to change the site based on your terrible suggestions will end up backfiring causing people here to revolt and overall decrease the amount of people on the site as a whole.
Never suggest anything again the site is 100% you will complain about this thread, me, /qa/, and 4chan as a whole after reading this
But then you will come...

why do jews want to delete /pol/?
>>429006
We don't desu
>>429006
Why does /pol/ want to delete jews?
>>429006
No one wants to delete /pol/, it serves as an effective containment board.
Unfortunately it is not so effective right now with the amount of mongoloids shitting up threads on other boards with nigger discussion and Trump posts.
