Now hear me out for I'm not just bitching but trying to find out what, or more when, things went wrong.
Long story short I've been lurking here for about five years and now I can't stand this horrible website anymore. 4chan has always been somewhat crappy but now it has nothing but porn and idiots. The porn aint even good on here.
There used to be a time where you'd learn things in here, discover new things on all field and have thoughtfull conversations with anons. I remember spending nights before the screen discussing geopolitics on /k/, philosophy on /x/ or just having fun with other anons on /b/.
Now, no matter the board, most of the posters are awfully ignorant, biased and aggressive. You can't have a fucking discussion with anyone because you'll encounter faggots "trying to prove their point" , leaving place only for aggressive "debates" leading nowhere. I've lurked both reddit and 4chan before, left reddit because of the communith but now I'm finding the exact same problems among the anonymouses of 4chan.
So I'm asking ya, what course of events have led this website to become mainstream and filled with underage idiots and normies ?
I'm well aware that we've always made noise around us, which often led us to appear on big medias, but since when have you noticed a clear decrease in posting and community quality ?
And please don't even fucking bother cherry picking one word from this text and spouting some crap about memes.
Alternatively, what other chans are still decent ?

Every other chan is either not English, pedo central, or retards complaining about muh free speech, and this chan is full of normal fags

>ywn be a mod righteously dropping permab&s on shitposters all day and making them public as examples
Why did I even get up this morning
>/v/ has better anime taste than /a/
>/a/ has better vidya taste than /v/
>/mu/ has better film taste than /tv/
>/lit/ has better music taste than /mu/
>/tv/ has better book taste than /lit/
Is this true?
>>527029
Nope, not even remotely.

pretty please
No, Ids have been fucking usful as fuck for spotting shit posters and reddit shills
>>526914
/pol/ is full of redditors, the fuck you talking about? It's basically the largest normalfag containment board we have, aside from /tv/.
>>527048
There was literaly a thread last night where people were admitting to only being on the website for a few months. /pol/ is the only site where this is acceptable. Why?
What the fuck is wrong with moderation on /co/? Does being a janitor there really just amount to "randomly delete things you don't like"? Apparently if you're in a bad mood you can just use "rule 1: off-topic" to delete any post you want.

>Does being a janitor there really just amount to "randomly delete things you don't like"?
yes

You deserved it, whatever it was

Only mods can warn/ban you, not janitors. The second one should have used the "complaining about moderation" reason but mods are scared to actually use that one because people would flip out.
I have some old adderall that "expired" in 2015, but I'm sure is still good. Sealed in a prescription bottle from High School in the cupboard. Can I vape it by dissolving it in some ejuice?

Why are so many MCU threads allowed on /co/, but DC threads getting deleted?
Why does criticizing Marvel result in a ban, but criticizing DC is permitted? Should both not be allowed equally?
>>526640
>equally
welcome to 4chan. the mods are obviously marvelfags, and since being a mod isnt an actual job, theres no accountability. so they can fag it up all they want.
>>526648
>the mods are obviously marvelfags
That's true, but wouldn't you think that Hiro would prevent mods from blatantly shitting up the boards they moderate?
I mean, there are expectations for doing a job even if you're not being paid, right? If you volunteer at an orphanage and rape all the orphans you wouldn't think they'd let you come back.
>>526652
>If you volunteer at an orphanage and rape all the orphans
that is nowhere near the same as being a faggot on the internet, but ok.
Well, in the last couple of years the quality of these threads go "tolerable bad" to "shitpost general" (aside exceptions) and why move?
because hasn't literally new material what discuss in the last monts [spoiler]the tripcode undername lawchair is partially the reason of this, PARTIALLY[/spoiler] and this isn't bad for they own, the shit happen when exist ALMOST DAILY A THREAD full of drama, falseflags, trolls and retards who blame all the bads to one poster
And why move to /jp/?
because PMMM is still a thing in japan (see the map of the last reitaisai), the board consist good part in waifuing 2hus, soft lewd and relative harmless shitpost, ideal to that kind of threads
>yes, my ass hurt
The usual suspects making actual madoka discussion in the madoka threads impossible is a good argument for creating /ag/ but not moving madoka to /jp/
>>526621
I think that OP in these threads have an important role, for example exist ones who soley "I want to ____ with ____" type and ones who open with questions about the series
>>526624
do the thread-ruiners just ban evade? mods/jannies seem pretty responsive lately, so it might be worth a shot to just blanket report all the "shitpost general" posts to see if the "general" can't be killed
remember this guy, he came and went in like a year
>>526550
he was popular for 6 years on reddit

Hideous meme, good riddance.

>>526603
He's just a variation of Wojak anyways.
Fucking reaction images, they're the cancer. they were novel at first but now it's just complete garbage
.
Dear 4chan, stop using reaction images. they're for individuals that already have a grip on the english language. not for your retarded asses to avoid inevitable spelling and grammar mistakes stemming from a shit education.
But anon, smug anime faces are the highest form of discourse.

The stupidity of normalfags never ceases to amuse me
Western individualism is why anonymous message boards will never work.
Westerners love 'social capital' which is why you see sites like Reddit have in-depth discussions. When there is no value tied to your name (due to the lack of a name), westerners no longer feel compelled to be serious about discussion.
Compare 4chan to sites like 2ch. When shitposting on 2ch occurs, it is quickly stifled or ignored. when shitposting occurs on 4chan, it is usually goaded on by fellow users and the problem of shitposting is exacerbated.
It's time for Hiro to implement usernames and logins. Anonymity does not work in a culture where individualism is prized over the group.
>>526508
You wanna eat shit boy? Get out of this site boy.
>>526508
Is this some amateur attempt at irony? You are posting on an anonymous message board that works. Clearly you know this or you wouldn't be here.
Ban all people who want to delete boards.

Can someone please tell me how a large influx of foreigners is supposed to save a country?
Once you successfully answer this question, you can proceed to complain about /pol/.
/pol/ is the large influx of foreigners to 4chan and should be removed

>he thinks a site that was made to post Japanese cartoons and porn and that spawned 80% of internet memes is for serious discussion
DELET THIS
>>526308
Who said that
>>526308
If the site wasn't for serious discussion, then why do we have all these topic boards? If anyone just wanted le shitposting army fun then we only need /b/.
Do chess threads belong on /tg/ or /asp/?
