Has there ever been a new board that was as much of a failure as /news/?
>>364877
text bards were always slow.

What were you expecting? I think part of the problem is that people are limited to 5 active posts and no thread has gotten past page 7 yet. This is a blessing in disguise though because it forces the /int/ guys who were banalposting earlier to use proxies to post.

I'm glad it's slow. I looked at it and there's hardly any lowercase idiots or meme word spam.
I think all boards should be changed to this format, albeit with images allowed. Perhaps /news/ is a test to see how it goes before they do that, and it looks like it's succeeding so far.

>the board isn't flooded with shit posts, the board must be shit!
Slower boards are better almost every time anon. I bet you think /v/ is good because its "fast"

In fact that images are not allowed on that board is the reason why it isn't shit. You can't get instant responses from posting sad frog some other meme rather than have your words spark up an actual discussion. Trolls can't derail threads with images anymore and no more smug anime girls.

>/news/ is /pol/ without images
Great job, Hiroshima Nagasaki
You stupid fuck

It's only the "without images" part that is a problem tbthwy.
>>364877
/news/ is a disaster
>>365057
wow, rude...
Nice /tabloid/ board, hirio
>>364877
Not ever board has to move at 100 posts per minute. Slower boards are usually higher quality. Also, it probably has something to do with the only announcement of the board being a tiny entry on the blotter. If there was an actual announcement, there'd probably be more people. Hiro really seems to like that documentary though.

Most of that looks like news to me. Not all new is or has to be srs bsns. What's the problem?

>only 5 posts allowed
>takes at least 5 days (or more) for a thread to die
>realistically regular posters can only post about once a week
No one's going to make this their home board if they can't even really post on it
>>365104
>only 5 posts allowed
5 threads max. Just like on other boards.
>>365123
Oh, I see.
>all yellow dog journalism
>sites with 20-30 scripts
>>365238
Why don't you post some more worthy news from better sites then.
>>365052
Yeah /x/ is amazing lol. Nothing but tulpa and succubus summoning threads.
>>364877
They fucked up when they called it a "text board" and gave it the imageboard format and only allowed OP to post an image.
There's also no link to it on /pol/ like text boards normally had. Otherwise no one knows it exists.
