No matter what the purpose of this new board was, all containment boards do is let shitposters congregate and develop a culture that then leeches out onto other boards. All that will happen is that a new cancerous culture of the kind of people we don't want on this site will develop, they will make new, shitty memes, and then memers will spam them on other boards. All containment boards do is give undesirables a home where they can create a foothold on this site. The only way to get rid of types we don't want on this site is to ban them whenever they try to post their shit on a board and keep tough moderation againt them, creating a containment board just tells them they have a legitimate place on this site. So, delete /trash/, delete /mlp/, delete /soc/, delete /lgbt/, delete /s4s/, delete /cgl/, all of them were made as containment boards for types of posters other boards didn't want.

Fuck you.

Ponyfag detected. You mad you cancer doesn't belong here?
It's like /mlp/2 with more horse porn...
Delete all the boards I don't like. No matter what the purpose of this new board was, I don't like these boards and therefore they should be deleted. I'm making baseless assumptions on what will happen because I know I'm 100% right on everything. I have been on 4chan for two months and I should be able to dictate what goes on. I come to 4chan for serious, intellectual discussion and that should not be hampered by Japanese cartoons, which are illegal in the United States and therefore need to be banned. I should know this, because I am a professional Reddit user and my IQ of 194 tells me that what I am saying should be heeded. So, delete these boards and replace them with niche topics that only I like, including a board called /hiq/ for high IQ users like me.
This is what you sound like, OP.

Nice job ignoring any and all arguments made in my post, resorting to baseless ad hominems, and then accusing me of being the one making baseless claims. The fact that I have been on 4chan for more than two months is why I know containment boards don't work and actually encourage the spread of their content on the site by giving it a home. And no, I'm not asking for boards I don't like to be deleted, every board I listed was made to be a containment board for a certain type of content, which is why they should be deleted, because the policy of containment boards simply doesn't work.
>>332367
/trash/ is just rewarding bad posters. Why did Hiro allow that?!
>>332386
It's the same shitty policy moot followed during the last few years of his ownership that fucked up the site so badly, he rewarded any group that was loud and shitty enough by giving it its own board to call home.
/trash/ would be perfect if it was a simple redirect boards for off topic or shit threads.
Make it so no one can create threads in /trash/, then any off topic or shit threads warranting deleting from other boards can simply be MOVED to /trash/, and allow the shitters to post in the threads without it being on the home board.
This is likely what it was supposed to be used for.
However, deleting those other boards is simply fucking reatded. It's too late. The cancer is already ingrained in the the body so deeply it's terminal. Deleting them now means death when it spreads to other boards.
There is not enough mods or janitors to contain what deleting all those boards would do.
Plus there is nothing inherently wrong with /soc/ or /cgl/, it's just that they're shit boards.
>>332393
It's still not going this far...
ITT people who will be 2x as butthurt in a week when Hiro makes even more badly needed containment boards.
Could it be shittier than /s4s/'s "culture"?
I doubt it.
I think it's a great idea to be able to redirect threads to the board.
All this shit is what people asked of moot for years.
As long as when a thread is moved, all the participants in the thread are automatically redirected to the /trash/ thread seamlessly.
That way they are likely to continue shitposting on /trash/ rather than going back to the original board and making another thread.
It's a great idea and is a good alternative to banning (which is just dodged anyway).
>>332434
>all the participants in the thread are automatically redirected to the /trash/ thread seamlessly.
Yes, this. This 100x.
The thread just has to be moved to another board. Doesn't need to alert them or anything else. Might be difficult to do though.
>>332329
Neither /s4s/ nor /cgl/ are containment.
/lgbt/ is a well-functioning board that doesn't really leak.
>>332402
The Hiro we deserve.
>mlp hates it already
dohoho
>>332482
>implying
A place where we can finally post horse pussy and reaction images without people going apeshit is amazing, the whole "the board is dying because of /trash/" is bullshit, we just need 1-2 threads there to go fap for a few minutes and them come back and everything is going to be just fine

Also allows for all the pony shitposting not allowed on [s4s]. It's the perfect pony-themed venting grounds.
>>332554
Also , you can get rid of the furfag and trap cancer on /b/ and move it to /trash/.
/trash/ is basically FYAD 5.0 .
>>332557
/trash isn't trash at all.
It's the solution.
Now if only they put it on comic sans and allowed for forum-type shit like signatures to make it even more unbearable for shits and giggles.

/cgl/ was created to get cancerous cosplay threads and the attention whores that came with them off /a/, it basically is tumblr jr. Pretty much the definition of a cancerous containment board.
>>332548
>Wanting overall site quality without underage shitposters and other cancerous outsiders is desiring a "hugbox"
Learn the definitions of words and then fuck off back to your facebook memes page you underage shitposter scum.

>>332329
"Containment board" does not just mean "thing that is bad" or "thing that I don't like".
It refers to something very specific, that being topics that are not permitted to overlap with other boards.
So for instance, if you have a case of a video game that has an anime adaptation or vice versa, you will be permitted the video game adaptation of the anime on /v/ or the anime adaptation of the video game on /a/. This is a case where the topic is permitted on both boards.
However, the same can't be said about My Little Pony. You'd be allowed to talk about a My Little Pony video game on /mlp/, however, you would not be allowed to talk about it on /v/. This is because /mlp/ is a containment board.
While [s4s] does heavily emphasize shitposting, the board does not have any actual topic, and thus it is not "containing" anything. It's just a statement that the content quality standards are lower than other boards. Same goes for /b/.
The only containment boards on 4chan are /pol/, /vg/, /vp/, and /mlp/. You *might* be able to argue that /r/ counts as well since recommendation threads are b& on several boards, but that's really up in the air.
Consider yourself educated.
>>332367
>'m making baseless assumptions on what will happen
You don't know how containment boards work do you? They don't contain anything. You make a containment board, you force all those posters into it, they grow, they develop their own culture and then they leak out onto other boards with that culture and congrats we are back to the start.
Making containment boards for things that are considered cancer doesn't work, only killing it does
>>332629
nice evidence
>>332636
>implying /pol/ doesn't fucking leak out everywhere
>>332641
Do you remember the last two times /pol/ was deleted?
>>332648
And that's exactly why you don't make containment boards

You don't make containment boards for shit. It causes it to grow, gain its own culture and then it leaks out everywhere. At that point you also can not remove it without having to deal with a backlash big enough to effect the entire site, that will probably last weeks if not months
>>332618
It's not leaking yet, but all past evidence with other containment boards suggests it will.
>>332686
This. Yes, deleting a containment board after it has developed a fully grown culture fucks up the rest of the site by spreading cancer everywhere, but that cancer wouldn't have grown in the first place if the board was never created. /trash/ is new enough that it can be deleted without significant backlash, that needs to be done while it's still possible.
>>332355

It was born here, newfag.
>muh leaking containment board boogeyman
you use so many words yet you say so little. how about you gather up some actual measurable evidence that events will happen just as you describe it? burden of proof is on the accuser
>>332602
tumblr, tumblr, tumblr, everything's tumblr, goddammit.
>cancerous
This looks almost exactly like 'a thing I don't like.'
Besides, the board almost seems concomitant, esp. with /jp/
>>332728
>burden of proof is on the accuser
Not in this case, because this shits common knowledge, you newfag
>>332736
This post is shit on at least three levels, and says absolutely nothing of worth. Congratulations.

You mean like coming to /qa/ to whine about something you can't change when there is a 4chan feedback page?
http://www.4chan.org/feedback
>>332329
I know this is one drop in an ocean of opinions, but I think /trash/ is turning out fine. /s4s/ is the only board that ever became a problem out of that list, though I do think anyone who posts in any of those should hang themselves.
>>332798
Because bunny reads these shitty threads and I doubt he fucking even knows about the feedback page
>>332801
How is [s4s] a problem?
>containment boards
>ever working outside of /mlp/
Alright, man.
Post some proof of containment boards shitting up the nice boards, then I'll jump on the bandwagon with you, but right now you're just saying "believe me because slippery slope"

I've never heard of /lgbt/ outside of it's board
Is it even alive, or is it like /po/?
