Lets say I wanted to make an exact clone of 4chan...
How would I go about doing that?
Would I need any special hardware to rune the servers on my own? Should I have a professional host it?
pic unrelated
Most people use https://github.com/savetheinternet/Tinyboard IIRC
Wow what a semon demon
>>51512807
grab tinyboard, cripplechan's software
also this is now a Katya thread
>>51512821
Fucking newfag
>>51512826
>this is now a Katya thread
Heck yeah.
>>51512826
>>51512826
cripplechan is awful though. Didn't moot release the source code for 4chan?
Will I have to reverse engineer the code?
I'm a giant newfag to all this
>>51512855
Oh, Miru is a fine girl too
>>51512855
Is that what Hotwheel is using ?
>>51512866
That's great and all but I'd love some advice
>>51512855
No he didn't everyone who's made an imageboard recently uses tinyboard, also 4chan's code must be a mess after all these years of tinkering with japanese imageboard software.
>>51512878
yes,
and its really bad.
>>51512894
Oh I see.
>>51512889
Just post some fresh pics of her already.
Pic related is from this year.
>>51512879
Nah, Katya > Cara
Sorry bro
>>51512903
She's lost the ephebo appeal, looks depressed as fuck now that's why i only post old ones
>>51512817
Tinyboard is a little bit defunct now. Places like 8 chan uses infinity/vichan.
>>51512926
Is that why you crop her friends off the pic ?
Because I do that too :3
There are still some pics of her being happy, even nowadays.
I'm genuinely curious of what she's up to in life and shit....
But I don't speak Russian so...
>>51512948
>There are still some pics of her being happy, even nowadays.
I'll have to get around to finding them i guess
Ok so lets say I want to run something like vichan
Could you give me some steps i need to follow to get the board up and running
e.g.
>1.) buy domain name
>2.)get hosting
etc
>>51512975
Hoarding pics of qts is great.
I'm gonna keep doing that :3
>>51512999
>Ask yourself whether having your front door knocked down by the police is fun or not.
Btw, dayum Katya's good at cosplay'in characters
>>51513025
w-what?
>>51513039
Not that guy, but you seriously don't want idiots posting CP on your imageboard.
>>51513007
That's my fav pic of her
>>51513074
Well this is mine.
>>51513074
It wont happen, I'm keeping it for a small group of my friends
Could anyone help me with this though? >>51512999
>>51513124
>3) Secure that shit from bots and DDOSers fagots
>>51512817
use vichan instead, it's an improvement over tinyboard since tinyboard development has stagnated
or use wakaba/kareha
>>51512999
you've already got the steps
1) buy domain (or if you don't give a shit, use freenom, they hand out free .ml, .gq, .ga, .cf and .tk domains)
2) find a host with PHP support (you should probably just spend the $3/$5 a month and rent a VPS, otherwise your host will shut you down due to violating the TOS)
3) connect to VPS, install software
>>51513154
shit what happened in that pic
>>51513124
grab an old pc, install debian on it, then install nginx for the webserver, look up the vichan documentation and slap it on top of it
You should also look up how to set up ssh keys and protection from bots trying to log into your server.
You won't even need to rent shit if you only a few people use it. You could also buy a domain or just use the IP as the site's name.
>>51513232
Doing tech support is fucking boring.
I might as well eat a fucking cake, just for the sake of it.
>>51513256
Just some nose surgery.
Here's a comparison before and after her operation.

>>51513232
What would I need the vps for? Why would they shut me down if I don't violate anything?
Also why would bots come to my server if I don't tell anyone about it?
>>51513261
I'm sorry mirubro, at least we share a common interest!
>>51513280
>mfw i just realized that Katya looks like a character from a horror manga i read the other day
>>51513323
There's thousands of chinese bots actively looking for servers to exploit so yes i wouldn't take the chance
>>51513323
I mean, if he can't figure that out yet, his best bet is to start practicing web admin shit on a fucking shitbox hosted on his LAN.
No need to spend quids for that.
>>51513367
>chinese bots
what the fuck?
What do they do?
>>51513323
Most free hosts have a thing against anything 18+, anything that allows public uploading, or anything that gets "popular" due to high disk/bandwidth use.
>>51513391
Find unknown vulns in the most common CMS and exploit them.
At the end of the day, if you are careless, your whole server turns into a legit botnet.
Like >>51513367 said, I wouldn't take the chance.
>>51513391
turn your network into mince meat.
>>51513391
Oh and don't forget to block hot linking.
You don't want retards stealing your serve's bandwidth, do you ?
>>51512894
It's why they have a new image board in development
>>51513397
I'm fine paying cash. If it costs me 50+ bucks a year that's okay as well. I just want to get this shit up and running.
Who should I purchase the domain name from? Does it matter?
>>51513410
Well shit, I'm definitely going to be careless.
>>51513411
>>51513427
holy shit people are awful
Is this something I could do in a weekend or should I just hire someone? I'm a freshman majoring in neuroscience, so I know nothing about coding/websites/tech
>>51513456
Ah, that one pic is good too.
In fact they all are.
>>51513456
Gee I wonder, what would she say if I show her my collection of pics ?
>What's this anon ?
> Duh...
Do katya nudes even exist?
>>51513559
are you mad?
katya is pure
>>51513559
wow, how lewd!
>>51513567
This
>>51513456
>Who should I purchase the domain name from? Does it matter?
namecheap, gandi are alright
if you want to be a cheapo, you can get a free one from http://www.freenom.com/, or an .xyz from namecheap for $1, SSL is cheap too
>>51513559
But there's some semi-naked pics of miru.
Which I may or may not have on my PC.
>>51513559
woah that's way too lewd
>>51513598
Just wait for Let'sEncrypt.
Looks promising.
>>51513598
nah I want a legit .com
>>51513599
you better post those right now
>>51513567
One day someone's going to cum inside her soft pussy, filling her up with their seed, holding her tiny body as they lift her with each thrust.
It's just not going to be you.
>>51513603
At least that reaction image is accurately posted.
Well done, son.
>>51513616
Dude, I don't want to post them while I'm using my fucking pass.
>>51513617
thats alright, I'll find someone like her
I still think namecheap and gandi are good, and like >>51513614 said, wait for letsencrypt if you want an SSL cert
>>51513614
>>51513647
is there an eta on that?
I have miru bro's and cara bro's who want their own image board, plus a bunch of my friends think it would be cool to have one for ourselves.
>>51513670
SSL is optional, the website will work just fine without it, but it's one of those nice extra things to have, for security/privacy
>https://letsencrypt.org/
>Let’s Encrypt will enter Public Beta on December 3rd, 2015. Once we’ve entered Public Beta our systems will be open to anyone who would like to request a certificate.
>>51513617
Stop crushing my dreams.
I guess Shia's advice won't work out on that matter.
But hey, I'm all with >>51513641
>>51513647
>>51513730
>>51513730
>>51513745
Ah don't cheap out on the TLD !
>>51513779
holy shit, theres videos of katya?
>>51513798
Yes.
But this board doesn't allow audio.
Here's one, anyway.
>>51513025
I've got to go with this anon. Keeping cp away is harder than you think.
>>51513280
Fuck she's hot. Is she a trap?
>>51513025
>>51513996
could you explain?
>>51514008
unfortunately [spoiler]nope[/spoiler]
>>51514008
Thank god no
>>51514031
If there's a chan people *will* try to upload c p to it. It just happens. There used to be a board on just for finding chans to dump c p to. I think they made a new one too.
>>51514077
well if its unlisten they wont find it right?
can i get cops to monitor my site?
>>51514087
No idea, sorry.
>>51514087
>can i get cops to monitor my site?
They already do that for free.
>>51514064
How do I found out more about this katya?
>>51514077
>a board on just for finding chans
A board n cripple chan you mean?
>>51514112
so... no problem then!
>>51514130
On master of all chans but I wouldn't be surpised if ((1*2)*(5-3))*2 chan has one too
>>51514178
Take the 'of all' out of that sentence. Filter kept blocking me.
hey guys i had this idea awhile back:
global 4chan-like forum for all language speakers autotranslated to the user's preferred language.
i mean i know english is the main language of the first world, but how many people on the internet actually speak english?
imagine all the new memes!
good or bad?
>>51514212
good in theory, bad in practice
use vichan
--> no mods
-->. no word ban filter
<-- site covered in cp first week
<-- forget about it
<-- fbi at door what do?
kusaba x
--> No support
--> spam filter
<-- ban all obvious cp keywords
<-- no fbi at door
<-- people want to moderate eventually
<-- make some money and friends
<-- die a loser any way
thread kind of related

>>51514243
tru actually... translate isnt for a social forum.
i mean, maybe the inaccurate translation could be part of the fun tho.
idk
>>51512807
She should find a good husband and mother children before she gets too old and saggy

1. Raid 4chans servers
2. Steal hundreds of hard drives
3. Steal yotsuba
4.?????
5.profit.
You could probably run it on your home PC cause the traffic would be minuscule.
>>51513529
>my collection of pics
Please share, my collection is getting old.
>>51515277
Fuck you for even suggesting that. Yotsuba is a beautiful creation. Just fuck you, seriously. You don't fuck with yotsuba, she's beatiful.
In case you didn't know yotsuba is our mascot but she's actually from an earlier manga series
You're a fucking asshole, fuck you.
Moot put his heart and soul into creating and tweaking the beautiful complex beast that is yotsuba.
I hope you fucking rot in hell, you cunt.
Fuck you.
