there should be some system to hold mods/janitors accountable. give each mod their own ID, which shows in every ban, and have some kind of complaints email which a group of randomly selected anons look over. if people consistently make legitimate complaints against a mod, they would be fired
what does /qa/ think?
pic is unrelated
Won't happen since they're the ones holding the power. A report system would be similar to shooting themselves in the feet.

Hiroyuki is the one with the real power, he needs to exercise it. otherwise, powertripping mods will kill this site

agreed mods should have ids
anons should also have ids
we also need a +\- system for bumping posts

People used to be chill autists there, now you only see raging autists. I was writing a long text about janitors not being the cause but gave up because its not worth derailing the question. I feel some things are important to it

It's a dead board content wise.

The answer is MLP.
When MLP first became a thing, /co/ became a warzone for the entire site. The people who watched the show were pretty quickly corralled into a general but everybody wanted to come poke them with a stick. People were weirded out and/or annoyed by people watching My Little Pony, so trolls on other boards used MLP pics to rile them up constantly Those people would then make threads on other boards or make 5 or 6 generals to get them booted off the site. Eventually somebody told moot that if he...

This image is marginally older than 4chan. It was a cornerstone in its early memery. It took five years before people in the real world found this man, and captured images of him.
That event, the rediscovery, was 8 years ago.
It has now been (at least) 13 years since this image floated into this toilet of the internet.
Thirteen years, and here is my question:
WHERE IS THIS FUCKING SHIRT?
The place, a tourist attraction in Canada. The World's Largest Dinosaur. Located in Drumheller, Canada. They sold these shirts. He was wearing it as a model for...

pic related is from my old /b/folder. This guy apparently just bought one of the shirts online somewhere ~2007. Also you can google 'cockmongler dinosaur shirt' and find pics of guys wearing them at conventions like https://c1.staticflickr.com/3/2227/2550535516_4833e883f9_b.jpg
My point being: they were commercially available back then somewhere. Just look through google results until you find a place that still has them. You might have to go to page 2 or 3 of the results.

That's Rich Kyanka.
Also, the image is 'shopped. You can see because of how the folds of the fabric are reproduced from the original onto that picture.
And the linked one is a goddamn printed picture, pasted on cardboard and pinned to a shirt. Damn.

Can you post moar ol' wise sage
Or into a torrent magnet
I lost all of my DVDs and floppies
A while back you created a board called /aco/. This board was used as a dumping ground by the mods of another board called /d/ to push out Western art from their board.
The problem is that /d/, as an alternative fetish board, was largely sustained by having a pool of fetish art from both the East and West. No one on /d/ cared where the art was from.
/aco/ posters are forced to share a board with /d/ and hate it. /h/ was made because /h/ posters didn't want to share a board with alternative fetishes. By forcing this against the will of the users, two boards...

Fucking this! /aco/ isn't necessarily a bad idea, but forcing content from /d/ to /aco/ when it was perfectly fine where it was has caused a shitstorm of gargantuan proportions. I've been a /d/eviant for over ten years now. It was my first board. In the time I've spent lurking it, I can honestly tell you that "western" art was very rarely hated on. Someone posted a picture of a stick figure? Sure, I understand and agree with its deletion. Someone posted a pretty damn well-drawn piece of art,...

Can we please ban trumpposting from all boards other than /stormfront/?
I know /pol/ thinks hate speech is funny, but the rest of us do not. Keep /pol/ in /pol/. It's a containment board after all, isn't it?

You are Fucking so much worse than the redditor lynchtard boogyman posters

wake up fag its not 2006 anymore where we can all have a laugh about nigger jokes
its 2016 where /pol/shits want to kill blacks on sight and cant resist bringing that up and spam threads on harmless boards with disproven "studies" about african dna because the OP was black
Does 4chan realize it takes about a month at most to get accustomed to board culture? It doesn't take years to learn how to post like your average user. Oldfags and newfags are exactly the same when it comes to posting style and overall attitude.

4chan is not rocket science
I can't believe after all these years, there's still a subset of 4channers who are autistic enough to engage in a newfag vs oldfag war. Shit I can't even bring up 4chan in 2006 or 2007, even as a passing comment, because some projecting and raging lunatic will respond to it crying about how I'm lying. There ARE people who think 4chan is a bragging status, and they happen to be the very kind of people who accuse others of doing it. There's also still people who think Rules 1&2 are a thing.
I make an effort to explain things to people who don't...

Lets have a good old Reddit thread.
What subreddits do you guys like to browse?
/r/worldnews and /r/videos are my main gotos. I also enjoy /r/whowouldwin
/r/GlobalOffensive
/r/news
/r/KotakuInAction
/r/videos
/r/streetfighter
I'm kind of a Reddit noob. What are some good ones I should sub to?

Checkout
/r/internetisbeautiful
/r/woahdude
/r/changemyview
/r/tipofmytongue
And I guess whatevers relevant to your interests. If you're into games I suggest /r/games for news and /r/truegaming for discussion. Just stay away from /r/gaming.
>>421343
Nice, thanks. Yeah, I heard /r/games is pretty bad. Will check out the others.
> Blue board.
> Banner with upskirt.
This is why I adblock.
Lewd =/= NSFW.
i like those ads
Worksafe is in name only
Most people jerk off but nobody wants to share discussion with a bunch of porn laying about and people jerking off all the time
What are some old memes you'd like to see make a comeback?
I was always really fond of Big Dog.
>>428982
*raises spork* has been making comeback on /mu/ recently
i miss posting smileys desu
>>428982
Being able to discuss the topic of a board without /pol/kids dragging everything into racewars and muh sjw boogeyman. I can't even fap in peace on /gif/ without the next epic mastertrolls shitting al over the floors and walls.
I really liked that meme on 4chan.
Why haven't you left this place yet?
Why do you still come here?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hhx6IfKrvEQ
I cant find a better web site
>>431825
I still come here because I like the maymays and the laffs
I come here, because it gives me something I can't get from any other place. Is it really that hard to understand?
Hello Hiroyuki,
I'm sure you've seen this request already, but I'd like to know if you have any plans to split /v/ into /v/-Western Vidya and /v/-Japanese Vidya.
Everyday at nearly every hour, both fanbases are at each other's throats in /v/ and it leads to a lot of heated debates that often require moderator intervention.
I think that by splitting these two fanbases into their own boards would help quell the constant feuding. There will no doubt be a lot of crossboard shitposting, but it will be much easier to moderate.
Thank you for your time.
How about we just delete /v/ so you people don't keep asking for 32 different spinoff boards?
>>433057
That's an option too. After all, a majority of the threads on /v/ can be bundled up in most of the generals.
One more shitposting tool to add to the bag. Coolio.
Mods, why do you allow backseat moderating? Pic related, that is crack kun tier levels of autism right there.
Yet you won't show what the OP contained.
Your tears sustain me
Why does /a/ have such a tremendous stick up its ass? Or think they're so much better than everyone?
Seriously, I feel like the worst people on this Mongolian fishing forum don't come from /pol/ or /v/, but they come from /a/.
>>431537
/co/, sort out your cultural inferiority issues
>>431537
What happened? You posted Pepe and were told to fuck off?
Good.
>>431537
It's my home board and I agree we're (using this word loosely) at least top 5 for worst userbase according to board.
I'm almost certain it's a committed and aggressive breed of shitters giving us a bad name though. Majority of us aren't like that but they're probably NEETs so they have the time to shitpost with authority and make everyone believe they represent /a/. And yes, ego plays a large role in this as sad as they sounds. They believe they're the last beacon keeping /a/...

>They deleted /z/
I don't see why people care since it hasn't been an actual board in over a decade.
They also deleted /yg/ and /fk/
>>427918
Because 4chan used to have a lot of history and easter eggs scattered around.
A lot of old sites have pages that almost no one visits but are left up just because they dont take up much space.
The text boards, /fk/, /z/, etc were fun easter eggs that were a reminder of older times.
It's a disturbing trend somewhat recently to just start removing all this stuff for no good reason.
I wouldnt be surprised if the rules page, faq, and archives are all rewritten and have sections deleted soon.
