Do you miss moot?
>>139318751
sorry for the dumb question, but what anime is moot from?
Whom?
>>139318751
>likes Asuka un-ironically
I'm glad it's over.
What is Hiro's prefference though?
>>139318835
He likes asuka. He said Rei is like a not human. Why do you people like not human? Trying to emphasize his bad english
>>139318751
that cuck never left, but i wish he would and take his SHIT TIER waifu with him
>>139318835
he claimed to like asuka tooonly because he cant remember anything about eva and he wanted to impress moot
>>139318751
Literally who?
Moot died long before he left.
That owner in the past that got NTR'd?
>>139318973
You're gonna carry that weight.
Not really
>>139318751
Is this real? No way
How long until mook realizes that 4chan is worthless and sells it to reddit?
>>139318973
No he didn't he gave us a good parting gift. Webms.
>>139318751
We definitely need more mods.
>>139318751
RIP in peace sweet prince ;_;
>>139319054
No we definitely need mods who actually watch fucking anime.
Also mods who don't ban every fucking dubsposter in a clearly shitposting filled thread.
>>139318751
Why was he such an ass about sound pictures?
>>139319028
Won't forget.
Never ever
>>139319072
>Also mods who don't ban every fucking dubsposter in a clearly shitposting filled thread.
Fuck off, retard.
>>139319028
It's real. moot got a small following among anime fans in Japan after appearing on a questionnaire show with hiro.
>>139319104
I'm telling the truth though. It makes no sense to ban KoG in a thread that needed him.
>>139319028
The sweater normally says "Wont forget never" in this scene.
what's a moot
>>139319149
marmandy jones
>>139319156
/pol/ must love it because they'd call him a moral degenerate based on this infamous image.
Despite his initial attempts at interacting with the community and taking criticism, I haven't seen much of Hiro after the nipplemod incident. Maybe he frequents other boards now. Adding more and more boards without addressing issues with the current ones didn't help much.
It's also cause for concern that he can't speak English well. It was endearing at first but it's a considerable issue with communication when he's actually around.
moot wasn't about that life. You can glorify him all you want be was the same as every scumbag.
>>139318751
No, moot ended up becoming the opposite of the site he founded.
so >>139318973
When do you start frequenting 4chan?
Late 2008 here.
>>139319072
>Also mods who don't ban every fucking dubsposter in a clearly shitposting filled thread.
>all pre 2012 mods are gone
>nothing but strict no fun mods now
>they ban everyone in a clearly funposting and very ironic thread
>yet they still fucking allow generals on this board
Fuckbut we can't do anything about it. This is the hand we've been given.
>>139319213
I've been here since last summer bro
>>139319235
But your trip is babby born brand new, senpai. I don't believe you.
>>139319010
good riddance
>>139319215
>all pre 2012 mods are gone
nani
moot died the day the fappening happened.
>>139319213
Enough to recall when Rozen Maiden was required viewing for /a/. This was before Moegintou in the OVA, so...mid-2006?
>>139319213
early 2014 for me, though I had been off and on, and in the loop with what had been happening since 2009
>>139319215
That wikihow thread was great, wish it hadn't gotten pruned.
Mods need to loosen up. We're here to have fun, they don't need to enforce rules so strictly on things no one seems to be against.
>>139319213
End of 2006. I'm such a wreck.
>>139319248
the trip is because the quality of the board is absolute dogshit currently
look how awful 99% of the threads are and how many rec/tumblr/shitposting threads we get
>mfw we will never have latenight moot drunkposting ever again
My only solace was that Kino thread the other day with kinomod.
>>139319284
Kinomod. The avatarag that tried to banish all loli threads.
>>139318785
>>139318784
>>139318968
>>139319149
You guys keep posting this joke and this will eventually become a real thing people go to FAQ for.
>>139319279
Might have been the OP topic/image that set them off. The actual content was surprisingly very anime and manga related.
>>139319279
That's what Hiro wants, apparently.
>>139319279
I hope someone grabbed those edits.
Who?
>>139319321
So... there are no rules?
Back to the early days?
>>139319310
loli threads shouldn't be on this board though, they belong on /b/
kinomod was the only seriously mod who cared about the quality of posting on this board, and had good taste in anime.
>>139319279
It was a good thread to lurk whilst it lasted.
>>139319329
The archive is still alive and well, anon.
Mods need to interact with the community and obvious shitposters should be public banned more often.
>>139319187
He posted in this /a/ related thread recently
>>>/qa/470478
>>139319343
/b/ is for porn dumps.
>You will never experience Umineko with /a/ again
>You will never see /a/ devoid of general threads again
>You will never, ever post offtopic content for fun instead of to make someone angry, because poor insecure double niggers think they're the butt of every joke and will respond with "bait" or "gb2 reddit" every single time
Where did it all go so horribly, terribly, disastrously wrong, /a/?
>>139319359
I thought archive.moe died?
>>139319135
NEM NEM SOHA
>>139319213
2011, I think.
>>139319336
What he wants is for mods not to delete and ban shit (within a certain limit) just because they're a little off topic. As long as more people are for rather than against a certain rule breaking thread, it should be left alone.
So yeah, a little like the old days.
>>139319321
>the only rule is there are no rules if no one complains
Hiro really needs to hang with us more. We can help him with his engrish as we pal around.
>>139319336
No back in the early days the mods were carefree. Now the mods are happy to ban you for whatever reason they can pull out their ass.
>>139319043
when was sound added to /wsg/? shit is cancer, spoonfeeds retards who don't even watch anime
>>139319359
Link?
>>139319383
There are other archives, anon.
>>139319383

although they still haven't fixed the fucking archive and we're still missing a solid 4 years of data
>>139319383

>>139319371
>You will never experience the disappointment of the Umineko anime with /a/ again
>You will never experience the shitstorm that was Mami losing her head again
>>139319410
ok anon, was the main one I knew and I just noticed about a month back it was offline.
>>139319362
Yeah, just noticed. I'm glad he's cool with letting things go back to how they were, the issue is he needs to impose that mentality upon the mods as well. That WikiHow thread was a good example of a thread that was needlessly deleted.
>>139319403
http://desustorage.org/a/thread/139316325/#139317303
>>139319408
Any day now. He said he wanted to transfer the smaller boards first but I don't know if there's been any actual progress for months for /a/ itself.
>>139319213
Summer 2014I used to have a life
>>139319321
His opinions certainly align with our interests but making sure they actually happen is another thing, and making mods adhere to them is another on top of that.
I honestly can't tell if he's incompetent or not. That whole nipplemod fiasco had him going back and forth a million times trying to set shit straight.
>>139319082
>sound
Blame /v/ermin etc maxing out like 3 threads with song posts per day from what I remember.
>>139319393
Obvious shitposting/baiting and crossboarder memes always deserve a ban though.
>>139318751
>let the regressives shame him into submission
>became nofun
No.
>>139318751
Nah, I don't think he really cared about 4chan that much in the end either. At least Hiroyuki pretends to listen to the community a little more.
>>139319469
To be fair the new mod thought he was in the rightwhich is why I hate the new mods. Hire someone who's been browsing this board for over 3-5 years and knows how shit works here. Not the first dingle berry who turns in an application.
>>139319483
What's even the point of just dedicated threads to music in the pictures?!
It was just supposed to be something to accompany the image to give more effect!
Fuck!
>>139319311
what joke
>>139319495
>I don't think he really cared about 4chan that much in the end
Of course he did. He didn't do that long ass Q&A out of hate.
>>139319082
From what I heard, he thought there would be a lot of problems with people shitposting using screamers.
>the pre-captcha days
Oh the times they are a changing.
>>139319526
I still haven't forgiven him for the temporary solution that is captcha, and now it can't be removed because of 4chan passes.
>>139319469
>nipplemod fiasco
What it was about though? That one thing when they deleted images with uncensored nipples or something?
>>139319533
Captcha is only temporary.
>>139319533
I remember when moot said the extended cooldown was temporary.
>>139319321
The only problem I have with this is I don't think it's fair to give the users too much power, especially when we're all anons. Don't make it so actually rule following threads can get banned just because a few people don't like them.
>>139319533
I hate the current captcha, sometimes I get this one captcha which requires me to keep clicking on fucking lakes.
Is this your revenge google after me putting inniggerfor so many years
>>139319557
Yep. This is the guy that decided to add a paywall in the last minute so you can remove captcha. Fuck moot.
>>139319567
you know you can get the old captcha back, right?
the google one is really shit.
>>139319557
>we actually believed him
>>139319580

Get the 4chanx extension for your browser, go into the settings menu of the new and improved 4chan, and look for captcha options.
>>139319607
>>139319609
lurk for 2 years before posting
go to settings
People complaining about captcha are fucking retarded. Without it everything would be shitposting and spam.
test
>>139319639
I don't know, captcha AND a cooldown seems really redundant to me.
>>139319599
>Are you finished with those banners
What a fun ride that was.
>all those banner making threads
>>139319556
Yep, it caused enough of an uproar that Hiro came to sort shit out. There ended up being a stupid amount of threads with people telling him when nipples should be allowed.
He'd decide on something then in the next post he'd say something completely different. This happened approximately a gorillion times.
>>139319383
archive.moe? I thought Foolz Fuuka was our archive?
>>139319633
holy shit my old captcha
Never played around with the settings, always had things the same way since I started.
>>139319639
I fail to see the problem.
>>139319639
And you think it's alright to put it behind a paywall? At that point 4chan is no longer better than jewtube and sony

>>139319661
You mean greenoval? 4chanarchive? I know there were some others in there somewhere but I can't remember the names off the top of my head.
You're allmy friends and I don't care how old or new you are
>>139319321
This only works if the "users" know what is and is not good. The majority of people on the Internet are retards so if they come here with this kind of attitude then any good posters will be overruled.
I wish the newfags atleast tried to fit in instead of attacking people that quote their mistakes.
>>139319777
good and not good is subjective. No matter how much you think your opinion matters, you're nothing compared to the majority. You can always ignore shit threads, especially considering the catalog is a thing now.
He's gone either way, so I guess it's a moot point.
>>139319780
I wish they stopped posting entirely.
>>139319780
I wish people would stop building up 'board culture' to the point where you have to watch everything you type when having a conversation.
>>139319780
Fuck off faggot, do you really think being an old fag is something to be proud of? At least I got a life
>>139319800
It's a good thing someone else swooped in and saved the site from being without an admin. He's our Hiro.
>>139319786
Uh, that's actually Lowtax.
>>139318751
Kinda. He was our faggot.
>>139318751

>>139319849
>>139319848
>oldfag
>something to be proud of
I don't know really at this point other than the fact that if I never went on 4chan, I wouldn't be who I am today.
>>139319846
Board culture is what kept /a/ safe from retards.
>>139319792
>good and not good is subjective
No, there are many things that can be said to be good and not good.
>ignore shit threads
Ignoring a problem doesn't make it go away, nor does it mean the "bad" posters will stay in a single thread.
>>139319848
But...being an oldfag isn't something to be proud of. You're completely indistinguishable from a newfag over half the time.
I still keep thinking that he'll regret his decision and reacquire the site from Hiro.
>>139319846
Why don't you go to /r/anime or MAL then?
>>139319898
until I post pictures of my folder dedicated 2 4chan memez
>>139319898

It's not that hard to recognize newfags, honestly.
>>139319898
Real recognize real. It's easy to spot a newfag. It's in your veins you spot a newfag by the smell of it's ass.
>>139319213
2004. It still feels wierd how i dont really know why i stayed here back then.
>>139319890
No, that was elitism. Elitism for the anime we watch and the way we watched it, not the way others posted. /a/ is not kept safe, it's as bad as every other large board. Smaller boards are where all the fun times are had.
>>139319898
It is incredibly easy to identify newshits 99.99% of the time.
chris will become ceo of google
>>139319057
did we ever get confirmation of what he was going to be doing at google?
>>139319944
/a/ elitism is board culture.
>/a/ is not kept safe
Not anymore, that's why I said kept.
>>139319944
Smaller boards are too niche for my tastes. I just don't care enough about the subject matter.
>>139319944
Please stop posting.
>>139319944
/a/ being elitist was the best thing about it and the only thing stopping it from becoming /v/2.0
now because people don't want to lurk more look at the shithole we have
>>139319966
Implement google accounts to 4chan.
Reminder having standards is not elitism.
Yeah he gave us 4chan how can you dislike him man.
I like Hiro too but he's been really quiet since the nipple incident.
>>139319966
4chan+
>>139320002
what episode of hxh are you on lelouch
>>139319974
idk about everyone else but I've always considered /wg/ home, even if other people think we don't even count.
>>139319968
No, the elitism is not the board culture. Our board culture nowadays is "claim others are newfags/reddit/MAL for this thing they did in their sentence". No one used to care how you posted unless you were an absolute fag about it.
>>139319985
/a/ is a shithole because it reflects what's currently going on in the anime industry.
>>139319999
This nigga knows what'sup.
>>139320037
no it isn't at all, it's dumb fucking redditors not being told to lurk more.
there are whole threads dedicated to tumblr gifs, and you tell them to lurk more and they get upset.
>>139319934
>dont know why i stayed back then

>>139320037
Too deep.
>>139319985
Do people honestly believe anyone ever lurked in the history of 4chan? No one is going to stop posting because they got called a mean name once or twice.
Was /jp/ ever good or is it just nostalgia?
>>139320060
>tumblr gif
>point it out
>WELL HURF GOOGLE AND THIS AND THAT
>>139320034
talking about elitism, when did MAL make it so you had to have a MAL account to say this review is good, and when did they take away the power of saying this review is crap?
>>139320037
No it isn't, you fucking retard. The biggest reasons the board went to shit is because the elitism was dropped, people started refusing to lurk and most of all, generals were allowed to creep in and now the entire board is just a lite-general.
>>139320081
no and no
>>139320060
>they get upset
This is the worst part. Mods have to ban these people or atleast warn them or something. These smug faggots think /a/ belongs to them.
>>139320082
I never understood how anyone who actually lurks can not have anime images and needs to google them or get them from tumblr.
>>139320060
>redditors
>tumblr
You are not an oldfag. You're newfag pretending to be an oldfag. You're simply claiming everyone you don't like is a boogeyman making the board worse.
>>139320083
MAL made it so fucktard fanboys won't get offended and downvote in droves because somebody said something negative.
>>139319966

>>139320126
not saying that I was one of those fucktard fanboys with a specific anime show... or two
>>139320140
>...
>>139320083
They got bought out by a big Japanese media company which is why there have been so many changes, they are trying to clean up and monetize the site. I had an opportunity to write for them about anime, all those articles they post now come at the price of 3 to 5 cents a word. Taking away rating reviews unhelpful was bullshit though.
>>139320079
I posted 1 thread in the first 2 years of me lurking in 05-07 and it was a "what are you listening to thread" on /b/. You shouldn't even be allowed to post if you haven't lurked for 2 years.
I just want all the blatantly obvious redditors to fuck off and not spam and act defensive when they are told to lurk more. I have no clue why nobody says lurk more anymore.
>>139320154
>grr damn those redditors!
>I've been here since 05!
You are so full of shit.
>>139320123
>boogeyman
like the retard posting with his reddit/myspace username that linked to his brony and /r/4chan profile yesterday pretending to be an oldfag?
it isn't a boogeyman when you can actually tell where they come from
>>139320153
That was for the better. I don't wanna see Gangsta with the top review being a 10/10 because the retards downvoted every negative review. Fuck that. Anything is better than that.
>>139320177
FREAKIN NICE *high five*
>>139320183
That's called a fucking troll, you moron. Jesus Christ.
>>139320153
Yeah, this is why I've always just kept a notepad file of what I read instead of keeping up to date with MAL, which I thought A) took too long and B) was too elitist in deciding which manga series would be allowed to actually be added to the fucking db.
Tower of God never, I understand it's not a manga but a korean webcomic thing, but it's still stupid.
>>139320079

Do you not realize that ignoring it is what let it get this bad? It is honestly insane how you can pinpoint the falling of multiple boards.

Not telling blatant newshits to lurk more is the most detrimental thing to the board you can possibly do.

>>Give me a single piece of evidence that this will, or has ever happened.
Generals. The entire board is just becoming a bunch of lite-general threads.
>>139320002
I despise moot. He has done literally everything in his power to ruin my enjoyment of this site.
First he made /r9k/, and I start browsing and enjoying that board. Then he lets the feelsfags fester all over the board and even encourages them by reposting shitty feels memes until they literally take over the board and ruin its original purpose. Then he deletes the board, and years later brings it back specifically for feelsfags. Talk about adding insult to injury.
Then I move on to /tg/. The board is nice for a while, until a bunch of faggots, dissatisfied with loose moderation on the board, start falseflagging and coordinately shitting up the board until moot hires a nazi mod who literally kills the board by driving away literally 90% of its userbase and turn the board into a barren wasteland deader than /jp/ is now. And once the board finally started to show signs of recovery, moot decided to dump cancerous questfags from this board to /tg/ and let them take over the board.
But that's okay since by that point I already made /tv/ my main board and enjoyed all the absurdist humor and all the loonies and waifuists and Abataps and friends that ran loose on that board. But then GoT started airing and all the normalfags started browsing /tv/ and moot's mods decided to sanitize /tv/ by driving away everyone who made the board interesting and let the normalfags take it over and now the board is a shell of its former self.
If I met moot in public I would literally pretend not to recognize him and ignore him if he waved at me. Fucking asshole.
>>139320368
Been browsing here forever. We had shitposts, trolls, and genuine casual anime watchers every day. We used to have Toonami threads, dub threads, Avatar threads, 10x more tripfags, and all kinds of shit.

/tv/ is the worst. I went there to check it out and they tell me to fuck off because I wanna discuss Japanese horror films from the 2000's. Saying it's not relevant in 2016. No /tv/ is only for superheroes and shitty tv dramas.
But when did old-/a/ become neo-/a/? There is no consensus on that

I'd rather not be banned. Anyone worth their salt would be able to see it.
>>139320423
>That means nothing except there are more users
No it doesn't, you retard. Because generals were ignored and the mods didn't bother purging them when they let them in, they grew in numbers until that entire fucking culture took over the board. You don't ignore problems, you face them head on. Generals are shit threads, some of the worst.
>>139320468
when everyone stopped telling people to lurk more and started spoonfeeding people with facebook filenames

it's fucking pathetic

I've been an on and off lurker for the past 6 years on this specific board, when did said generals start popping up more and more?

You are the problem. There is a person behind that computer your responding to, you know.
He has feelings just like you.
Maybe think next time you decide to call someone a name? And what is the matter with you using "retard" as an insult? What kind of person did you mother raise?
>>139320462
/tv/ legitimately needs to be split up and capeshiters given their own board.
Regardless, i don't recommend anyone to browse that shithole anytime soon. Its a mess.
>>139320430
I think you got your shitposting routines mixed up. This isn't /v/yet
>>139320426
>>139320451
To be fair, those were different times.
>>139320462
Funny thing is, I think /tv/ has a lot better discussions going on, if you word it right and some shithead doesn't come to spew some meme shit.
It applies to every board, but it's really about wording your threads correctly, while still having that edge which makes people interested in posting.
Not to mention, people get into anime, while everyone has watched movies since they were born.
Haven't been there for a year though, it might have gotten worse now.
>>139320480
And this still has nothing at all to do with the threads linked. Jojo was popular, so there were more Jojo fans with the increased population. Now every one of those users want to talk about Jojo all the time. Nothing has "infected" the board.
I don't mind "fun". I don't mind off topic or relaxed atmosphere, but there's no need to have t b h or f a m or pepe or triggered or cuck in every single post. I seriously think some people can't even make a post without resorting to memes.
>>139320383
>>139320416
That was a fun thread though. How does it hurt you to ignore threads like those? Has there been some sudden increase in threads you don't like since that one was allowed to stay up?
>>139320542
Generals are filled with the exact same incredibly small amount of people everytime, anon. It has nothing to do with popularity or population.
>>139320383
UGHH, how did I miss such an epic thread?
You took away my Yutanpo and moot.
I think that non-anime images/tumblr gifs should be an automatic 24 hour public warning. Nobody that actually lurks posts them.
Shit like this >>139320500
originalfags were a bunch of literal weebs, middle age basement dwellers, and college students
the weebs of today are false weeaboos since anime is now a normie mainstream media source thanks to major streaming sites and netflix
the basement dwellers now are just a bunch of unemployed teenagers instead of intelligent social rejects
i suppose the college students are still here though
the original 4chan can never exist again because it was never a specific mindset to begin with, it was just that the internet was still in an infantile state and that everyone was just happy to be here
now everyone has access to the net and it's just not as fun as it was in the wild west days where only people who knew how to put a computer together showed up
if you found the site in 2009 thanks to tf2 videos you were the first signs of irreversible cancer, not just to the site but to the entire internet
>>139320271
>>139320324
This kind of poster is why /a/ is shit.
>>139320426
One part wants a memetic board like /tv/ full of shit because the old times and the other one prefer a strict anime discussion board without fun.
>>139318751
Fuck moot, he didn't have the balls to cut every board except /a/ so he will always be a failure in my eyes.
>>139320426
What many people seem to not know is newfags outnumber older users by literal fucktons. There is no board culture made by oldfags anymore. It's all made by newfags thinking they know how oldfags should post, so they pretend to act "elitist" in places it wasn't ever applied.
>>139320612

this is the worst idea i've ever heard

Make that not-animerelated pictures. And also use of c.uck
>>139320612
>cut every containment board
What a great idea!
>>139320563
Because that's lazy and uncreative. And /a/ has more than enough memeshitters who can't make an original joke if their life depended on it.
People who only want some reddit(for lack of better term) shit 'discussion' going on are ignorant, but, that doesn't mean that everyone should be uncreative as fuck.
It was a problem then, and it's a problem now.
>>139320597
>now everyone has access to the net and it's just not as fun as it was in the wild west days where only people who knew how to put a computer together showed up
As someone who used to meme hardcore back with /b/, you could coordinate everything in ircs without worry, because the people who could access them didn't happen to be on some other site, 4chan was everyone's first big forum.
Now it's not the case, and now everyone and their dog is online. Literally, just look at some of the crap that goes for social media accounts.
We can never go back to what it once was like. And I'll miss it.
>>139320426
There is no neo-/a/ you clueless dunce.
>>139320597
>if you found the site in 2009 thanks to tf2 videos you were the first signs of irreversible cancer, not just to the site but to the entire internet
Jokes on you, I first heard of this site in 2005 when I was a 15 year old shitter playing World of Warcraft and all the other 15 year old shitters in my guild were talking about how epic /b/ is.
I dunno what I'd do without 4chan.
>>139320564
The funniest part was 3 or 4 guys posting nigga vocaroos because they thought the attentionwhoring and whiteknighting was dumb and the thread should be deleted.
People asked the OP how they could send her money and support her and shit. OP even posted an amazon link because people wanted to buy shit for her.
Not sure if stuff like this should be tolerated.
Worst part is that even after OP left and people started posting porn, the mods didn't delete the thread, or even the porn.
>>139320596
I post them when is relevant to the discussion, don't see what could be the problem as long people don't spam them.
>>139320675i started lurking in 2005 because my brother was on it and i came to /b/ for porn6x glad
>>139320563
The off-topic threads of /a/ could be some of the most fun times of all. We still kept them anime related where it counted.

Those nigga vocaroos were great though. It was fun, like /a/ should always be. Attentionwhoring in the way OP did it was absolutely fine, at least until she showed people where to donate money. Wanting to show your fellow /a/nons something you can do is not a horrible thing.
And if I was a mod, I wouldn't let a few whiny shitters get their way either.

If I could give advice to any newfriends around this thread right now, I'd say don't mind the people shitposting you about the way you post. Just do it the way you want.
However, don't bring your shit taste in anime or dub threads in here.

>Attentionwhoring in the way OP did it was absolutely fine
She wanted to thank /a/ sings and thought the best way was to make an entire fucking thread. It was other people who told her to show them what she could do, not her.
>>139320793

I showed my friends /a/ last month now we spend half the time in anime club posting in One Piece threads. Its super fun.
>>139320793
The shitstorm from that would be just as big as deleting /a/. It would never fucking end.

>Those are old as fuck though. Unless I missed some new ones.
I hadn't heard the /sp/ one in a long ass time.
Personally, I have no problem with threads like that being made. It was fun hearing her make all the different phrases, and she knew Japanese well enough that she probably wasn't some teenager looking for men to suck her cock. It was just one more thread into the board of hundreds.
The only ones I actually care about are blatant troll/shitpost threads and ones with the newest memes attached. I can still ignore them sometimes, but it makes me inexplicably mad.
>>139320733
I agree.
It was fun and the attentionwhoring wasn't that bad at first but then she gave people links where they could donate and people started posting porn but the mods didn't give a shit about it and that's what really bothered me and most others.

Simple vacarooing is fun, I agree.
It was the attention whoring that got on my nerves, along with the fucking Amazon list.
Speaking of containment, you guys know that board-specific bans exist, right? This means it's technically possible for the admin to implement actual board containment measures.
They could easily make it so if someone posts on an undesirable board (e.g. /co/, /mlp/, /soc/, whatever) he automatically gets a permanent ban from /a/.
Yeah I only miss him because he actually cared about us... for a while at least, unlike hiroshima.

Actually stopped browsing for years because of the direction the site was going, came back because my interest in anime picked up again and there's somehow nowhere better to discuss it ( and /a/ is rapidly deteriorating thanks to streaming sites spawning a lot of clueless niwaka scum, but there's still good threads here and there ).

It's Essentially the same thing innit?
>>139321161
Reducing 4chan population should be fairly easy.
Remove the official catalog and figure out a way to disable all the unofficial catalogs. Page browsing only.
Remove the official archives and figure out a way to disable unofficial archiving.
Reduce the bump limit to 250 posts and make threads older than 6 hours autosage.
Ban general threads site-wide and make creating generals a permanent ban offense.
This should get rid of every shitter trying to treat this site as a badly designed forum.

This would be a great change.
Every thread that starts from an iPhone poster is guaranteed trash.

I'm a bit out of touch with teens, but how are mobile posters bad?
I don't use it myself, and I am genuinely curious.
Adding/allowing mobile posting was a bad decision.
There are people that use mobile posting when they go out to the bar or out with friends you know.
>>139321677
This, along with the native extension. Fucking newfags can't even into NEET and 4chanX.
>>139321728
They think that a tiny touchscreen provides an acceptable user interface for browsing the web.
In other words, they're complete fucking retards.
>>139321765
sounds fun.
>>139321765
Yeah sure me too, but don't start a thread while on your phone.
Hell, I don't even remember the last time I even made a thread, probably was back in 2011.
>>139321775
Mayhem's 4chanX still going strong.
>>139321765
I don't want people like that on /a/
>>139321802
This
>>139321810
You are my nigger. Though new images after thread update have fucked up thumbnails and I have to F5.
>>139321837
I fixed that myself. Wasn't too hard.
>>139321765
Someone posting on 4chan at a bar probably isn't going to be making any decent posts and will opt into making quick, dirty and low effort posts.
>>139321665
>Fuck you catalog is great.
Just because a feature is convenient doesn't mean it's an overall positive. Catalog has done more harm than literally any other feature added to this site.
>This would kill over half the boards on the site
Autosage means it can't be bumped anymore. Not that it immediately gets deleted. It wouldn't affect slower boards too much since on most of them it takes days if not weeks for a thread to fall off page 10.
i just want to say json's a pretty cool guy
>>139318968
Y'know. That guy who works for Google.
>>139321777
So I assume that mobile users often gloss over details?
Like, not paying attention to posts? Only coming to post a few comments then leaving?
>>139321870
Take a look for yourself. The only way to know for sure is if they post with an image.

looks like anime discussion to me
>>139321843
I'm sure it isn't, but I know jack shit about scripting.
>>139321902
That's only iPhone posters. Android lets you rename images
>>139321902
Oh, thanks, so the thing is that images saved on mobiles automatically get renamed to 'image' once uploaded?
Actually, I'll just start lurking now, don't really like getting spoonfed, even with regards to how people shitpost now. Thanks for explaining it though.
>>139321870
Yes, that is one of the biggest problems with mobileposters.
>>139321924
I'm feeling generous. Make sure to backup in case anything breaks.

Thanks for the virus.
