Old thread >>335967 nuked by Hiro™ again(stay safe)

Talk about what unusual or usual events are happening on your home board and in 4chan in general.
>>
4chan sucks. It isn't even alive anymore, it's a rotten corpse that's being repeatedly fucked by a bunch of retards who don't know when to quit.

>>344974
/pol/ managed to get the twitch channel of the cup banned. The reaction was delyed from end october.
/news/ about to get born in preperation to to finally delete /pol/ when we have the replacement boards.

What happened?
>>
>>345342
I tabbed into the thread and noticed there was around 30 new posts I hadn't read. I saw one post that said something like "/news/ is here now" so I went to go look, accidentally clicked to go to another board, then hit the back button to come back to the thread and all those posts were gone, and /news/ is still a WIP. Seriously, what.
>>
>>345485
Well if you want solid evidence that nothing else was deleted.

Alright yeah, that deleted post was the one I saw. Guess I imagined the unread posts. I thought I went forward in time for a few seconds.

I had something that seems like what you said in another thread. The thread seemed to just duplicate itself mid thread and I apparently had 400+ new posts
A refresh fixed it though

""Racism, sexism, homophobia, or other hate speech: We're not going to tell you to watch the potty mouth, that's between you and your mother who doesn't approve anyway. What we will tell you, however, is that if you choose to use language or produce content that is racist, sexist, homophobic or falls under generally accepted guidelines for hate speech, you will disappear from Twitch."

So according to twitch we were done on the 29th for "hate speech." Maybe it's the timing of things but I'm looking over this god damn ToS as best as I can but it's gonna be a bitch trying to get around that for an appeal argument. Are there any Jews out there that can help our argument on this?"

Ah shit thanks for filling me in mate. It was only a matter of time I guess, surprised this popped up in a babby though. They usually draw less numbers and so I'd have thought would be of less concern. Always thought this would be a problem the bigger the cup got.

Where does the Cup host now? There's no real getting rid of the "hate speech" from /pol/

The stream was moved to hitbox for the rest of the baby cup, same address.
The twitch channel is now open again but that was our 2nd strike. One more and the channel is gone forever. /pol/ just needs to not demand to be 200% edge and have real goalhorns again instead of just Hitler speeches and we should be fine. Stuff like the big jewnose blender is racist or whatever you call it but is very overdrawn and comical.
And stream numbers were 600-1000 for groups and I think we got 1700 for knockouts.

/x/ thinks it's suspicious that the Paris attacks are getting news coverage so they must be a false flag by the evil Republicans to get us to go to war again.

We have divination generals now. I think we've had them for a while but now there's several a day and they're always on the front page.

I was in the stream. The reason it got banned is because /pol/'s team is literally dressed as nazis and the players are racist memes. Even without anyone shitting up the stream, /pol/ by itself was a violation of twitch rules, so as soon as the team showed up, the stream got banned.

The very existence of /pol/ triggered the twitch admins

Lucid dreams is definitely /x/ related. Always has been. Paranormal has always been a way to categorize "strange" and the board's usage has never been exclusive to the supernatural.

The winner of each cup gets to play against an overpowered /4cc/ team. The game always results in the cup winner being blown the fuck out, but the fun part is that the game is themed (when /mlp/ won, it was the /4cc Coast Guard/ with boats playing in water). /tv/ were the last Babby winners, so they loaded up a hilarious scenario where the game was played by planes, the goal frames were supported by balloons, the ball being a semi-transparent balloon, and the referees were the CIA's plane being dragged by Bane's plane.

And thus, the /4cc Air Force/ was made Some of the funnier ones on /4ccg/ were the Germanbro Truck on a raft supported by balloons, a bong on a cloud representing Old Man Sou (who smokes weed) and a horse in a weather balloon (representing Horsefucker Conspiracy). All the /out/ players were red planes.

The first chapter of RWBY manga just came out.
/co/ dumped the first chapter on /a/ along multiple offenses and ">>>/co/" posts.

In a general I spend time on in /vg/ we're being spammed to hell by ban evaders who are either posting animal dicks or disgusting /d/ tier fetishes.

The mods kind of try to do stuff about the first but have been ignoring the second. The thread is a dead zone during certain hours due to the spam and newfags who can't wrap their tiny brains around the concept of ignoring shit posters.

Didn't get a chance to see the thread but I sort of agree. Moderation feels a bit too black or white sometimes. Depending on who you ask, that's a good thing or a bad thing but personally I just wish some threads were just allowed to stay even if they're not strictly within the rules but people are having fun. It seems there's an increase of it lately whereas mods were more lenient before, but maybe I just never really recognised it

How is /his/ doing? Are people actually using it? Were the fears about it realized or proved wrong?

/a/ seems to not change much. I've gone on /vg/ lately and it seems like Undertale General is the new Homestuck General. It also seems to attract off-site posters. Not sure whether this is a good or a bad thing.
>>
>>353513
It's a good thing because Undertale is a great game. The more people who love it, the better.
>>
>>353514
Oh, I agree, I love Undertale. It just seems like /utg/ is sort of a mixed bag. Undertale threads on /v/ are usually just people saying it's great and then other people saying it's overrated, but /utg/ is like, people whining about how they are bad at drawing, people posting a ton of fanfiction, etc. Looks a lot like another non-4chan site which shall remain nameless.

Undertale OC is also generally really low-effort and awful for a reason I can't explain. Go on Youtube and look at all the video clips from TV shows and movies where UT character faces were just pasted over the faces of actors in famous movie scenes and stuff. It's pretty nauseating.

But, I guess that's what /vg/ is for. Sometimes I forget it's really, historically speaking, a quarantine board that was made for generals like LOL, SC2 and KSG.
>>
>>353513
>It also seems to attract off-site posters. Not sure whether this is a good or a bad thing.
Bad thing. The new posters will eventually come out and explore the rest of the site and think the way they acted in the general is acceptable elsewhere. Considering from what I've seen with /vg/ its usually treated like a chatroom and the like, they really won't be liked anywhere else
>>
>>353523
/utg/ has some strangely good habits though. For instance there are like almost zero tripfags. But on the downside, there's a surprising amount of assholes there. Which I guess goes with the off-site mindset that 4chan is somehow a place where it's considered acceptable to shitpost and be as aggressive and confrontational as possible at all times. Where if you call them on it their response is naturally "where do you think we are? this is 4chan fucker, fuck youuu!"

It gets tiring really fast.
>>
>>353520
That reminds me, people do the same thing for Danganronpa. Similar fanbases, I guess.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kXTFhcz18I

And yeah, I wouldn't worry too much about /vg/ to begin with. The whole point of that board is to house 4chan's undesirables who keep posting "XTH FOR MEMES" and whatever.

[s4s] is glitching the fuck out. Check the catalog.

I'll explain further.

Usually, threads at the bottom of page 10 get pruned when a new thread is made. However, it looks like they're not being deleted. You cannot access page 11 or further to see these threads, you actually have to check the catalog.

It's like when the longest thread got unstickied. [s4s] shit itself and we had 28 pages of threads up and running.

That's good to hear, i am not one of the people who want /v/ to be separated yet again, but if we ever needed to split the board in equal halfs i would surely make a separate board for video game culture/community, this way one game/franchise threads can remain on /v/ while e-celeb drama, industry shit, console wars, and upcoming game discussion (which sometimes is also stealth advertisement) would be moved to the other board, reducing the content could help with fighting the advertisement companies who go to /v/ to spam with the same fotm overhyped shit, causing chaos since you can't tell who is shilling and who legit enjoys the game

10/10 bait. Tripfags are not people who 'don't fit in', they are people who intentionally misuse a site feature in a way to draw attention away from their content to their name and derail threads. The global rule ban on avatarfagging ought to apply metaphorically to tripfagging

No it isn't. If someone is abusing the feature, you fucking ban their tripcode

I guess, but then there'd have to be some clarification as to what abusing the feature means. In some threads a tripcode more than makes sense.

The thread does get made though

What's all that about?
>>
>>355907
I don't know. It happens to me as well.
>>
>>355499
Trip abuse its just another way to shitpost, even if we completly removed tripcodes, attention whores, shitposters and roleplayers would still exist, they would simply use another method to shitpost, the reason why tripfags are shitposters 90% of the time is because there are people who get triggered by them, fighting tripfags is like fighting the ad monsters from that simpsons halloween special, all you need to do is ignore and they simply die, believe or not but attention whores are desperate for attention, they expect and desperately WANT a reaction, even if that means people shitting on them, if when a tripfag is shitposting you never adress to his trip (or at least pretend you don't know him) and keep his arguments on the same level as the average anon, he will remain irrelevant and eventually will simply move on, don't expect people from stop being autistic and simply ignore the issue like the should, but being the only person doing what is right is a start
>>
>>355919
>eventually will simply move on
I get your point completely and kicking up a fuss about a tripfag within a thread is giving them what they want, but I don't think ignoring them really solves anything. They'll just continue to use the trip until they do get attention and if they're not called out on their shit we're just going to see more and more people use a trip like I have been doing recently

Honestly its bewildering, people with shit tier trips that I've never seen before just popping up in multiple threads whereas before your board would have around 3 or 4 tripfags people knew about and probably didn't like

WELL CURRENTLY I AM TRYING TO GET THIS GIRL ON TWIT...

>>355926
OH
APPARENTLY A NEWS BOARD IS BEING CONSIDERED
>>
There was a debate on /mlp/ about /trash/, NSFW stuff, and moderation where patachu got BTFO
>>
>>355922
there are two kinds of tripfags, the ones who only use their trips when providing content and may sometimes forget to remove them (that is really common), those don't care about reputations and just enjoy making content, and them we have the other kind which is the one who wants to be the next big thing, he wants to make himself a name, be recognized somehow, and depending of what board you browse he may be a victim of hugbox brainwashing, back on my home board we have small generals populated by amateur tripfags and a few lurkers, since giving constructive criticism to writefags isn't a common thing, some of them grow used to be praised by their shitty, half assed stories, and they end up thinking they are famous when IRL they are as popular as those 12 year old kids with minecraft channels and 300 subscribers

My point is, some tripfags only aim to fame and praising, they don't do it because they simply enjoy providing content, those are the ones who should be ignored so they can suffer for their own stupidity, there are tripfags who can't even provide any content and will just shitpost all the time so people will say "I remember (X), he is a shitposter who derails threads on my board", even /qa/ had people like this since its first days, and they should be ignored and never recognized

Just remember, if a tripfag, as bad as his reputation is, say something retarded, call him for being retarded, not for being a tripfag, don't give him the smug satisfaction of making someone "mad" or making them fall for his epic ruse
>>
>>355930
There are also tripfags who make good content but using the trip is only to make a cult of personality. If you draw, people will know it's you. You don't need a fucking trip unless people are giving feedback. And if you're greentexting, then only put a trip on when other people are greentexting in the thread and your greentext is one people care about.

So many guys here use the trip just for fame and to get praise and adoration and when you look at the actual posts they make, it's worse than the average 4chan post, which is fucking terrible
>>
>>355929
I was there. The butthurt was glorious
>>
>>355929
I swear, as bad as /mlp/ reputation may be outside its own board (or even inside i guess), its amazing how self aware the community is, its incredible the amount of good meta discussion you can get there once in a while
>>355934
Yeah, but its more like a minor issue, some of them seem to be capable of understanding how far is too far, i mean, its not like you're going to see a respectable drawfag who has been on the board for years suddenly going apeshit with "don't you know who i am?"
>>
>>355937
Too many I've seen on boards I frequent where they may or may not have skill but they keep a tripcode pretty much to ensure "upvotes". I just feel like the art should speak for itself and if people want more or to find where you upload it all, then you link them your accounts
>>
>>355941
You're right, i mean, what are they gonna do? Steal your artstyle? And if you're a drawfag and people ask if that is really you, you can always just post a quick doodle or something, i've seen CYOAs dong that once in a while.I used to wonder if removing names while still allowing people to use trips could help somehow, remembering a short nickname is a lot easier than remembering a complex combination of numbers and letters, and since trips are usually just used to distinguish your posts from the other posts in the same threads, this could partially solve the issue with attention whore tripfags, after all, saying "fagtron69 ruined the thread" is different from saying "8258150_#177 ruined the thread"
>>
>>355929
Patachu is probably one of the worst posters on the site and each one of his posts gets his fanboys to worship him even though they're full of shit. Glad he got BTFO.
>>
>>355961
Has his tripcode been cracked?

That's wrong though, people defended bestiality, furries aren't into pure bestiality, they don't want to fuck wolves and horses, they want to BE the wolves and horses while fucking other anthromorphic characters, which usually have humanoid bodies with animal features like hooves and tails, with the head being replaced by a cartoonish animal head, there are people out there who are into bestiality but aren't furries

Why can't we just keep /trash/ as a secondary thing as it should be? /trash/ is 4chan's Cuba, it allows so much shit to be done now, why there needs to be a smug feeling towards using another board that happens to allow porn? Why do people need to make this a issue anyway? Isn't /trash/ good for our board? Or do people seriously believe the lack of porn threads being made on /mlp/ is a bad thing? When 90% of the time they were spam, shitposting and flamewars between rulefags and shitposters, making fapping impossible
>>356771
Nah, its more like a spectrum of autism, there are some legit retarded people who take that shit too far, while there are logical people who you can have a civil, smart discussion with because they aren't delusional or blind
>>
>>356773
I love /trash/ and think we should keep it while keeping /mlp/ SFW and for show/character discussion.

>>356771
Well /a/utists took the waifu meme too far when we used to do it sarcastically like a decade ago. There's always these freaks who take it too seriously. You can see it with /pol/ (and previous iterations) and the rest of the site too where the racist jokes and shittalking has turned into stormfaggotry.
>>
>>356776
Just keep things how they are, keep the fanfiction coming while keeping the board blue, show discussion is limited as fuck and gets boring after a while, fanfiction is fun and allows us to make a lot of OC, and its what keeps the board going during hiatuses

>Hiro is actually making a /news/

The absolute madman, pretty much every change he's made since taking over has been exactly what I thought needed to be done, its amazing the difference with having an admin who is actually invested in 4chan and wants to actively make it better.

It's fucking crazy when you think about how stagnant 4chan became in much of moot's time.

>>
>>356819
I don't know if anyone else is enjoying his new reign, but as a historyfag who draws western cartoon porn and loves wrestling, I'm pretty fucking happy with how things have gone so far.

If you look back at the early years of 4chan, there was a rapid expansion to more or less the setup we have now, and then a very, very slow increase of boards. Now in a month or so more has been done to fix the problems EVERYONE IS AWARE OF than in the last 3 years.

problem is with the taste he is leaving on everybody's mouths, since Hiro shows interest on what the community has to say, we have to deal with retards thinking their ideas are brilliant and the only way to be noticed is by spamming the shit out of /qa/ so Hiro can see that, some even try to abuse the fact that Hiro is new with biased opinions, trying to convince him to do something stupid like removing this one board or censor this subject because they don't like it, Hiro needs to make it clear that /qa/ isn't a special snowflake board and posting here doesn't mean anything, and that he listens to the community based on common consensus rather than spam and endless complaints, i mean, for fucks sake, /qa/ was supposed to be a board where people go to have a good time and find understatement about 4chan through meta discussion because they care about 4chan, not what it is right now
>>356832

It's only encouraging people to go to boards they're not welcome on.

To be frank, I think it's actually for the best that Hiro is inexperienced. Moot's experience was exactly what led to him letting the site stagnate for years. Since Hiro is new he actually cares and is eager to do work to fix the problems.

Does it really matter? Better they spam a hidden board like /qa/ where nobody sees them than shitting up the realms of the gods. If you want a private board where they can't get to, make your own.
>>
>>356845

People are free to visit and use any board they want to. If they misbehave, they'll catch a ban. There's no reason to do anything before that.
>>
>>356845
This is so dumb it almost doesn't warrant a response. This is an anonymous website with no posting restrictions. Nobody is "unwelcome" anywhere. They will post if they feel like it and you can do nothing to stop them.
>>
>>356812
>>356831
I wish he'd stop doing any form of changes and stop listening to /qa/ all together. Sure the few changes he has made are ok, but he really doesn't know what he is doing, as he's treating the site like its 2ch. He's too much of a newfag and probably can't tell the difference between a shitposter and a actual poster.

What he needs to do is not do anything, to interact with the community and to LURK MOAR. There shouldn't be any form of changes until he's been here for atleast 6 months to 1 year
>>
>>356853

>Moot's experience was exactly what led to him letting the site stagnate for years
Hiro has more experience then moot does. I'm pretty sure the reason moot let the place stagnate was because he couldn't handle it. The place came something that it wasn't originally intend for, it become a hub for activists, he's constantly in trouble with the law, constant law suits and keeping the site up also cost tons of money. It's amazing he managed to last for so long

>>356857
>And I'm blissfully happy he isn't listening to cunts like you. We have so many nice new things already because of it.
I wish he didn't listen to retards like you. If we keep going down the current road, the site will go to shit because he will implement every retards original idea
>>
>>356862
>implying 4chan hadn't stagnated for years and some change wasn't OBVIOUSLY necessary

There was absolutely no fucking reason we shouldn't have had /his/ years ago for instance, people have wanted it for so long, and the moment it was created it became full of activity. Likewise a western drawn porn board, though they still need to work out a solution with the /d/ issue, it's still a big step in the right direction.

It's better to try lots of things and make the occasional mistake than just let things stagnate and go to shit. Nothing is lost if he makes a new board that isn't successful, adding boards is trival.
>>
>>356845
Crossposting will exist regardless of /qa/ existence, as a metaboard, this is /qa/ related, and its just a fun way to see the kinda of shit that flies under the radar, nothing special
>>
>>356849
Its not like that, its just that this board, as a metaboard has a lot of potential for different kinds of threads, but people focus too much on the /q/posting simply because they don't realize the potential they are wasting, i don't mind /q/posting, but when 90% of the board is it, including all the duplicated threads, it leaves a bad taste on people's mouths, people end up believing this board is for nothing but complaining nonstop, and believe or not there is a part of /qa/ that comes here for the meta discussion alone, not for the feeling of change Hiro provided us
>>
>>356845
I'll never understand why people on certain boards think that people on the rest of the site only use one board.
>>
>>356853
Agreed, he seems to be already lurking
>>356857
Are you stupid? Do you seriously believes there aren't people on this website who are alienated, delusional, who think they know what is best for themselves when in reality they don't, remember that Hiro and the mods have a different way to see this place, we may be anonymous for each other, we may not be able to see who is samefagging directly, but they can, they see everything from outside the box, and Hiro knows his decisions as admin affect thousands of people, not listening to any idiot who thinks his board is being literally invaded by other board or other websites is the best, since some decisions would cause more trouble than solutions
>>
>>356867
>missing the fucking point

I'm not saying there shouldn't be change, I'm saying it shouldn't be fucking forced so quickly from someone who knows nothing. I'd rather walk on a safe rope, rather the tight-rope.

Hiro is a genuine newfag and the worst kind. He's treating the site like its 2ch and his only knowledge of it is 'le haxor', the internet arsehole and the meme machine. At the current moment, he's worse then your fucking redditor from r/4chan. He shouldn't be trying to add change, he should rather interact with the community, actually learn about the site and its users. Then after a month or two add some small change and after some time do some big ones. At the current moment he's incredibly likely to do something stupid like splitting /v/ in /jv/ and /wv/, and once its done, you wouldn't be able to put them back together as /v/, as the change would already begin once you do the split, even if its only a test.

I want change just as much as the next anon to help our current state of mostly shitposting and stagnation, but I don't want it from someone who can barely speak English and is incapable of telling a actual post from a shitpost
>>
>>356853
You are the worst type of person. Pretty much everyone agrees moot was god awful.

>>356867
>Likewise a western drawn porn board, though they still need to work out a solution with the /d/ issue, it's still a big step in the right direction.

Agreed. This is the only glaring issue with what Hiro's done. Things like the /d/ issue and /his/ being turned into /leftypol/ prove that while Hiro is good at making changes, he needs to be able to follow up on those changes and fix the problems that result from it.

A lot of the issues seem to stem from overzealous moderation, so maybe he should actually address that next.
>>
>>356884
Jesus fuck you are so paranoid you actually seem to be damaged. Did a forum admin touch you when you were younger?

No-one is saying that Hiro should do absolutely everything that gets advised to him, but on the most part the fact he's actually listened to people and given us some of the things we've wanted FOR FUCKING YEARS is a good thing.

You know he's not actually a confused shota bunny who can't talk properly right? It's just his english isn't that great. He has the ability to listen to advice and then decide himself what route to go down. And he's still being way less hands on than moot was back in the years when 4chan was set up pretty much how you are saying it should ALWAYS BE.
>>
>>356886
He's interacting with the community and giving them what they want. That's all anyone could ask for.

Moot never gave a single shit about the community beyond taking a huge dump all over it every year or so.
>>
>>356886
Okay but the changes he made were actually good. I know you have this idea in your head that he is helpless and clueless, but shit like /aco/ and /his/ being added were obvious decisions that should've been made a long time ago.
>>
>>356888
Yes, i am aware of those facts, but remember, literally anyone can spot and complain, but only a few can figure out a way to solve the issue, as admin, Hiro is supposed to use his privileged role and have a wider vision, look further into the future to make sure what the community wants really is good for itself, and make sure whatever he does doesn't end up backfiring us in the future, creating 3-5 new boards on your first year isn't a good idea, you need to plan before doing this kind of thing because making new boards can fuck things up pretty badly, check the boards that are going to be split in content, understand the different points of view, spot what is true and what is biased, ask the community from the boards if they are fine with having their content split, he was supposed to do this kinda of shit, we should only make new boards when necessary, since splitting the community makes it weaker and makes moderation a lot more complicated, and when a community is made on a new board, you can't delete it anymore, so you need to make sure the board is going to be created to stay, or else you end up with shit like /mlp/, that wasn't even supposed to exist in the first place
>>
>>356892
Moot always made decisions based on how it would benefit him.

Hiro makes decisions on how it benefits the boards.
>>
>>356893
I don't mean this as an insult, but are you actually autistic? You are just babbling now, going on and on about things that aren't even problems but maybe theoretically could be.

Calm your tits. Obviously you don't use any of the new boards he's made, but for the people that DO use them, they are super happy these communities can now finally exist.
>>
>>356895
They are happy with things for now, but since we can't trust Hiro with his knowledge about the community, he may end up doing something as dumb as /cel/ or /nin/, he may not be a dumb, but he still is a newfag, just fucking look at /news/, anyone can tell its either going to be another /pol/ or some nazi moderated board where /pol/ will be the board's official boogeyman
>>
>>356892
And how long do you think he'll actually keep making good choices? He's not hopeless and clueless, but he's a fucking newfag. This is a fact. I don't want some fucking newfag who can't tell the difference between a shitpost from an actual post. How is this point so hard to understand? The admin of the site doesn't get to avoid the website slogan of lurk moar, even he falls under it as long as the anon userbase is here.

Moot in is late fucking years is better then Hiro at this point, because he fucking did what he thought was good, while Hiro is going to listen to the loudest voices for the most part and implement changes from them, as he has been doing. And the simple fact is, the loudest voices here are normally the most retarded when it comes to doing change.

I want change, but not right now. I want it when hiro atleast knows more about the site and its users that isn't 'le haxor' and memelords. I don't want my home board to be split into fucking 5 different ones because an incredibly vocal minority that manages to convince a naive Hiro its a good idea
>>
>>356897
I think that is part of the point, I mean thats the main argument from everyone who has been suggesting /news/ all this time, to spread the /pol/shit out, give them a place where they can actually talk about that kind of stuff.

Honestly I think /pol/ itself shouldn't exist and bringing it back was the worst mistake moot made. People should have free speech and be able to discuss any political beliefs they want, but having a designated right wing orange board was always unnecessary. But I don't know if we can ever unmake that decision now.
>>
>>356902
> to spread the /pol/shit out, give them a place where they can actually talk about that kind of stuff.
The problem is that you simply can't make a board that is literally "like X, but its not shit", since the subject is pretty much the same there are going to be a lot of people from /pol/ going there, and as we already know, /pol/ crossposters are unable to keep their autism under control and they NEED to spread their retarded ideals everywhere like a bunch of flaming homos, moderation could solve the issue but a lot of innocent people would get caught on the middle
>But I don't know if we can ever unmake that decision now.
You can't, there is already a dedicated community with its own ideals, even if you deleted /pol/, even if you kept the initial shitstorm under control, the ideals that made the board would still exist, shit would be pretty much the same, with /pol/tards shitting up other boards even more now that their main board is deleted and they are searching for a new place to stay
>>
>>356904
>The problem is that you simply can't make a board that is literally "like X, but its not shit", since the subject is pretty much the same there are going to be a lot of people from /pol/ going there, and as we already know, /pol/ crossposters are unable to keep their autism under control and they NEED to spread their retarded ideals everywhere like a bunch of flaming homos, moderation could solve the issue but a lot of innocent people would get caught on the middle

Well that's what I'm trying to say, /news/ could be an actual board where it is OKAY for them to sperg out with all their ideology that they love trying to spread. An actual outlet.

At the moment what we have is a designated /pol/ hugbox and then the rest of 4chan ripe for their derails. Telling people to fuck off to /pol/ just because you disagree with them is a pretty bad state of affairs, it'd be better if there was an actual place to discuss things from different viewpoints, as opposed to just "go back to your hugbox".

I don't know, it could work. It could fail. Nothing could be worse than right now anyway.
>>
>>356902
/pol/ has never been right wing only. That's just the way politics tend to swing on this board, mostly because they evolved from shitty libertarians.

You have to remember that 4chan's parent website Something Awful also had a politics board that was full right wing (Laissez's Faire,) back when that board was filled with Internet Libertarians.

Like 4chan, there was a huge blowback against them in favor of the site restructuring into a "kindler, gentler website" after Lowtax got the feds called on him. Any right wing talking points or ideas were banned for being "LF talk." That's why SA ended up becoming a leftwing hugbox and became proto-tumblr.

The best thing to do for /pol/ is to split the board again and encourage actual debate rather than just shutting them down, because if you try to shut them up, neither result you get is going to be any better than what we have now. Either the whole site becomes infested with lefty /pol/ (much like /co/ or /tg/ already are,) or /pol/ spreads out and shits up the rest of the site.
>>
>>356907
>Nothing could be worse than right now anyway.
Fuck off

I seriously wish anons would stop such this defeatist statement. It has been said so any times through the years it should have lost its meaning. Everytime someone says this, it always manages to get worse
>>
>>356907
This.
>>
>>356910
That's the exact opposite of a defeatist statement.

Is english not your first language?
>>
>>356907
Okay them, what if the majority of the community ends up being from /pol/?What if it fails as a neutral zone for political discussion and just becomes another hugbox because of the reasons i mentioned before? /news/ doesn't need to exist, what you need to do is make /pol/ stop with the hugbox shit so actual political discussion can take place, which isn't something Hiro or the mods can do, only the community itself
>>
>>356909
It's called "Politically Incorrect" for a reason, anon. It's a rightwing hugbox in this incarnation.

You are retarded if you think /co/ has actually become "infested with lefty /pol/ ". Basically what you mean by that is some people on that board expressed political beliefs you disagree with.

/co/ used to be clean of this kind of politics shit, then in recent years /pol/tards or just plain b8ers started to start racism threads and genderwar shit etc, derailing shit left right and centre like happened to /v/, and understandably when you start a politics derail you get all different opinions expressed.

What you NEVER fucking see on /co/ or /tg/ are threads started about people complaining about the patriarchy or whatever, acting like genuine tumblrites who love genderwar shit, because that isn't the userbase and never has been. Whenever those kinds of threads are started, its being using it as bait.
>>
>>356914
now that you mentioned it, the chaos on /co/ seems to be more like "let's not argue about this because we know its not going to end well", right? When i see bait threads about race and gender its usually a big, anti SJW circlejerk with people blaming each other to be the opposition all over the place
>>
>>356913
I think /pol/ is far too tainted for that ever to happen. They have years of "board culture" stored up now, it's right wing and it'll always be that way.

I think a neutral ground that is for political discussion but not necessarily a rightwing hugbox is the best idea going, maybe that will soak up the shitposting that emanates from /pol/, maybe not. I guess if it doesn't work, just delete it, nothing of value lost.
>>
>>356915
Basically. /co/ used to be really adverse to that kind of drama, it's been increasingly forced on them and it just spirals into shitposting like you say, everyone pointing fingers at EVERYONE who disagrees with them and calling them either tumblr or stormfags.
>>
>>356916
in theory, wouldn't taking away political discussion from /pol/ (the thing that causes chaos but allows people to go against the board's ideals depending of the context due to subjectivity) just make the board a bigger hugbox? Since taking away the news discussion would make other kinds of threads stand out more and fill its void
>>
>>356917
I see, so its more like a problem of trust rather than an actual invasion, its less about /co/ being influenced by the industry's situation (the whole thing about the big two suffering with over progressive shit) and more about /co/ simply being too autistic to ignore the problem and move on
>>
>>356919
I think that's a good explanation yeah. I mean all of the things you listed are part of it. Feminism issues ARE talked about more all over the internet when it come sto comics (and pretty much everything), but as /v/ discovered first and then /co/ and other boards later, you literally CANNOT TALK about any of those issues here without an instant shitstorm, and even mentioning anything to do with that will derail any thread faster than dubs.
>>
>>356918
Well it's already a pretty huge hugbox, I'm not sure how it could conceivably be MORE of one. it would be nice to have a board to discuss happenings where threads wouldn't 90% be collages and racist cartoons.

I mean, in the extremely unlikely eventuality that that isn't what happens to /news/ within a week.
>>
>>356920
Shit, you're right, its even worst considering /co/ is one of the most autistic boards here, they can't get a joke and spot the bait, taking everything seriously, and when they do take the bait they end up shitting all over the floor in panic rather than ignoring and moving on, screaming "DONT TAKE THIS BAIT, THIS IS BAIT GUYS, SEE?", its pretty pathetic considering i go there all the time, its not even a bad board, just painfully autistic
>>356921
Wishing /pol/ to not be biased is like wishing /v/ to not be obsessed with memes and shitposting, its not gonna happen, ever
>>
>>356914
This is exactly what happened on SA. All the blame was laid squarely on one group while the other painted itself as simply being their opposition.

One thing you have to realize is that it is impossible to separate a culture from the media it produces, especially when there's so much contention around it like with video games and comics. When major members of an industry are arguing for a specific viewpoint that affects that medium (like with Comic Books and Whor,) then yeah, that's on topic and should be discussed.

You didn't see that stuff in the past because it simply wasn't an industry concern. However, back when video games were considered murder simulators it was a topic /v/ discussed.

You can't divorce the real world's effect on media from that media, or you're not able to actually discuss it properly.

>>356916
>>356913
A second board will always split a userbase at least a little bit. Make no mistake: the majority of /new/ WILL be from /pol/, simply because /pol/ posters are the most likely to care about news events. You're not going to get a lot of /v/ or /a/ posters because the topics of interest for those people do not revolve around politics.

Now, whether or not /new/ builds up a healthy community of differing viewpoints is a matter that depends wholly on the willingness of those other groups to actually go and debate. Unfortunately, I doubt that. Few people on the internet want a space that allows anybody to voice an opinion: they want a place where differing opinions are bannable.

/pol/ is 4chan's Laissez's Faire, and /new/ will most likely end up being our version of Debate & Discussion: a lefty hugbox to counterbalance the righty one. Whether we delete the righty hugbox depends on the mods.

It's sad to see this place following the same path as SA, but I guess it was only a matter of time. It's what moot wanted.
>>
>>356924
>/new/ will most likely end up being our version of Debate & Discussion: a lefty hugbox to counterbalance the righty one
WHY WOULD THIS HAPPEN?
>>
>>356924
>and /new/ will most likely end up being our version of Debate & Discussion: a lefty hugbox to counterbalance the righty one.
I haven't thought about that, i can already picture people from /pol/ redirecting anything similar to lefty thinking to /news/ as a containment board, not on its first weeks of existence, but perhaps a month or two later after the initial chaos
>>
>>356928
The same reason it almost happened with /his/: people reject /pol/ talking points by banning them and sending them away, which then extends to banning any similar viewpoints, which leaves only those with the opposite viewpoints left on the board.
>>
>>356931
Right, and /news/ will do the same thing with any righty thinking.

It's how these communities work.
>>
>>356924
>(like with Comic Books and Whor,)

From this alone I can tell you are one of the edgy fucks who has been dragging /co/ down in the last few years trying to bring genderwar shit in where people don't want it.

I'd give you the benefit of the doubt, but surely you must have noticed that starting these threads never leads to a reasoned discussion about those issues in comics, but will ALWAYS derail into genderwar shit with /pol/tier bait instantly, both sides screaming at eachother.
>>
>>356933
What saves /his/ is the fact that historyfags as a type of person are exactly the kinds of people who are pedantic about not making stupid wild claims, and actually LIKE doing research and following what is true and not just what you wish was the case. So as much as people try to bait with unbacked bullshit bait, there will always be the odd actual historian who is EXACTLY the kind of person to pull up their sleeves and actually reply with evidence and nuance.

>>
>>356940

Because one side or the other always tries to be the first to try to shut the other side down.

Saying what people want and don't want is a strategy that get used pretty often: it's a way of telling people that you don't want discussion on a topic, because the decision has already been made. The point is that it's impossible to discuss the current state of american media without actually discussing the political climate in which it is produced, and why specific things are changed.

Gender wars are a big modern concern, but look at things in the past in comics: Captain America becoming Nomad due to Americans being unable to relate to Patriotism in he 90's, Luthor changing professions to reflect the type of person Americans hate, TDKR and how it reflects Miller's specific political views, or the entirety of the Comics Code and its effect on the medium.

All that is part of the history of comics, and it's important to discuss why those things are the way they are. Art is not produced in a vacuum, and you can't discuss it in one either. The only difference between the way those are discussed versus when the issues with modern comics are is that people get overly defensive when their own modern views are challenged.
>>
>>356966
Which is exactly why challenging modern views is something that should happen on other boards. It's ALWAYS a completely different type of conversation, and the actual medium the board is meant to be about gets left behind after post one.
