You know the drill by now, let us know the happenings on your board.
Has it taken a completely different direction due to a recent change? Is it still finding its footing? Did something thought to be long dead make a comeback?

Share the gossip and don't spare any juicy details, only comfy here.

I get the impression that it's Hiro's pet board and that there aren't many janitors yet, but it's hard to tell. I know mods have removed some of the more blatant bait-ish posts and off topic stuff, I've seen those threads disappear from the catalog myself. It just doesn't seem to happen very often and the standards aren't that high to begin with.

As much as I know it's against what this site was intended to be, I think we need to start stepping up the efforts in archiving and cataloging our culture and occurrences. It's already happened through the years across several sites, but I'm not so sure we can say it's comprehensive, nor are any of these permanent, as we've seen with Chanarchive and Moe. Internet culture has gotten to the point where so many people are coming into this site without any sense of what it's about. This is potentially very very dangerous. It's already shown its colors in the now regular posting habits on some boards. We don't want the entirety of this place to end up like /x/, where nobody remembers anything except for a small number of oldfags too depressed to post anymore.

I never understood /x/, mostly for lack of caring.
Whenever I open an ebic thread, I cannot understand shit and can never discern what people are taking it seriously and who are joking (please tell me it's all a big joke)

The only thing I can name as an /x/ asset are the old creepypastas, like enderman. I never personally cared for reading cp, but it was harmless fun and everyone knew those weren't serious. Except those 11 yo girls that stabbed each other in the forest.

So... how serious does /x/ take itself? I mean nowadays and years ago
>>
Well on /a/ there has been no sticky for Asuka's birthday as moot is gone. Moot has also not shown up (or if he did, it was as anonymous) unlike what some people expected/
>>
>>368766

Years ago: Creepypastas and scary stories, a little less roleplaying. And a tighter community to an extent.

Now: Ever since the /bx/ times and /x/ sanctuary and such splitting off, it's gotten more and more about roleplaying, conspiracy theories, and even some actually mentally ill people (there's several Skype chats that I sometimes go to and some of the people are dead serious), etc. You still get good threads, though. It just suffered from a rapid expansion and still hasn't quite found equilibrium yet, so you get a lot of varying levels of interest there. But it's still kinda bad to the point where you can get better creepy threads on /b/.
>>
>>368766
Modern /x/ is extremely serious about everything, yet ironically people argue all the time because they refuse to accept each other's beliefs.

Let me give you a history lesson:

/x/ was created in 2007 to house /b/'s newest fad dating back to 2006: creepypasta culture.

While Something Awful excelled at ARGs and advanced creepy roleplay, pre-/x/ /b/ and later /x/ developed a haphazard tradition of writing short horror stories, and they actually innovated by adapting an campfire stories to text and narrating as if you were the protagonist. The general atmosphere was to make immersive threads that could spook people and encourage creativity. And of course being a child of /b/ there was a lot of shitposting and "is this spooky" stuff.

Fast forward 3 years and /x/ comes into a barrage of organised shitposting akin to the /b/read and siztra's clique. Unlike those the mods were too busy fapping to do anything and by 2011 /x/ was virtually depopulated by sheer force of shitposting. Some time later when even the tripfags left the "magic is srs bsns" guys started to flock in

To summarize:

In old /x/, people would ask "wouldn't it be cool if there was something out there?"

In modern /x/, people have convinced themselves there's must be something out there

We could argue all this happened because of moot's choice for /x/'s topic: general paranormal discussion instead of writing and horror culture that /x/ was created from.

>/x/ sanctuary

can you tell me about that place? I found they wiki and the board died very recently. It felt like it was refugees from the tripfag invasion
>>
>>368673
Terrorism, mainly

Now that he succeded, he should be back home
>>
>>369125

It wasn't a tripfag invasion that threw them off. It happened at the same time you mentioned. /x/ for a year or so would routinely have blatant trolling to the point where it wouldn't be uncommon seeing goatse up on the front page and other blatant trolling earning it the nickname /bx/. So, a lot of /x/philes formed several different offshoots to /x/ hoping to discuss it in peace without all the shit. Some branched off to the creepypasta sites, some went to reddit (pretty sure this spurred the latest trend of reading creepy stories from /r/letsnotmeet and shit), others went to other imageboards (one I remember even made accounts necessary to post on the imageboard because everyone was scared shitless of the sanctuary being raided too), it was a clusterfuck. Some were serious about magic, others weren't, and the splintering to various sites reflected that. But over time they all died or went to other sites. Before that the community was pretty close and even the tripfags weren't that bad. The only one who was a cock was Phil Ossiferz Stone or however he spelt it. But even he used to post medieval shit and lots of other lore and contributed a lot besides being a dick. So, there's not much to tell about the sanctuaries. Everyone splintered off too much and none of them ever gained any traction and died.

The /bx/ period pretty much killed /x/ and it still hasn't recovered from the mass exodus. All the good people who knew shit left, allowing the crazies to run amok unchallenged in their beliefs creating what you see today. It's a fucking shame what happened there. Mods cared so little about /x/ that they allowed /b/ raids to rape it right in the ass for over a year until the community was dead.

Speaking of which, this is the only /x/ sanctuary I could find anymore that was still up. It's changed a lot. I couldn't find an imageboard there anymore. But it still seems to be active a little bit, I guess. I don't even recognize it or know what the fuck it's about. Seems like a weird /x/ and /pol/ hybrid now. But the prelucid dude was pretty much a hardcore circlejerker, so not surprised it looks like a shrine dedicated to him rather than an /x/ sanctuary anymore.
>>
>>368657
Same. He was here earlier about that 4chan link leading to some flash download. Not sure if he's back yet though. But yeah dude needs to start working on implementing new boards and fixing /v/, /tv/, and the /aco/ and /d/ debacle
>>
>>369153
Yeah, I miss old /x/. It's a shame that it's ignored by the mods, it really needs to be given direction.
>>
>>369171

Can't really be saved at this point. The inmates run the asylum. Rather than a healthy dose of skepticism and belief, skepticism is met with "FUCK U FGT GB2/SCI/ FGT! I DID DMT AND IM ENLIGHTENED SO LISTEN UP" and most of the community left there feels that way. Those are the only people who stayed around through all the shit.

What needed to happen was the mods cracking down on trolling. Not ignoring it for over a year to the point where users themselves flee for sanctuary sites. I still can't believe how long that was allowed to go on without a mod even giving half a shit. But with all the good people gone from the community it's a lot harder to gain traction to bring it back to what it was.

So, I just post in the occasional good thread that pops up and hope for the best. Mods let our community get fucked and this is the end result.
>>
>>369153
> some went to leddit (pretty sure this spurred the latest trend of reading creepy stories from r/letsnotmeet and shit)

Well that explains the slenderman and SCP games happening years after creepypastas died on 4chan and SA.

It wasn't /b/ raids. /x/ had a strange relationship with /b/. Many hated it but most just... cohabited. Didn't mind their presence unless /b/ was down. Some of our memes and jokes were influenced by /b/tards and people would use a good laugh at some retarded how do I summon succubus thread. Hell, remember that back in the beginnings of board-tans /x/ was paired with /b/

What I remember clearly was Setti and Eris, just to name just the most prominent ones. I don't think we can claim they came from /b/ as I never saw them mentioned anywhere else here but they certainly stayed on /x/. Only tripfag that actually had /b/ as their homeboard was haikufag, but he didn't post much on /x/-

>read the janitor IRC leaks
>the entire irc flipped out whenever siztr(lolspamfilter)a was mentioned and
>we didn't even see the /x/ tripfag's posts get deleted


>>369168
Yeah I found prelucid's /x/ wiki. There's some things explained and some of the most influential / classic creepypasta from 2009. He wrote he deleted the board because of a hacker.
>>
>>369185

>Well that explains the slenderman and SCP games happening years after creepypastas died on 4chan and SA.

Yep. Reddit's creepy youtube videos and subreddits owe their popularity to all of our early users jumping ship after the bullshit.

>It wasn't /b/ raids.

But it was /b/ raids. At least at the time of the /x/ sanctuaries being made. I distinctly remember going there and seeing goatse ghosts and scat littering the front page consistently and mods never did shit. And this went on for a year or more. After that caused the community to fracture things died down, but that's when the crazy fucks came in and made /x/ what it is today. Now it's roleplayers, shitposters, and literal mentally ill people.
>>
>>369189
I dunno man, I jumped ship in 2010 when everyone was complaining about tripfags. By the time I remembered it existed again in 2011 the board left slowed to a crawl. Maybe things got worse afterwards.

Only time I ever saw a 4chan community die because of shitposting was /int/'s latino general.
>>
>>369189

http://sanctuary.prelucid.com/library/index.php?title=/sanctuary/

He even says as much here. But I only know of the sanctuary's history up until /b/day. After that I saw the place ultimately dying and came back to 4chan's /x/. So, no idea what happened with the rest or how accurate it is. Just keep in mind Prelucid is self aggrandizing, so take what he says with a grain of salt. But those first few segments are fairly accurate.
>>
>>369196

>I dunno man, I jumped ship in 2010 when everyone was complaining about tripfags.

That was just the time the chanology fags got to /x/ and tripfag hate was the new crossover from /b/ newfags.

The reasons for the /x/ sanctuary go back to way before 2010 and tripfags before that point were typically pretty useful and not attentionwhores. It goes back to at least before 2009 since sanctuaries started coming out that year and it's when people jumped ship in droves wrecking the community. Given this shit went on for a good year or more before sanctuaries popped up, it'd have to have really hit its peak sometime in 08 and slowly built up before then.

By that logic /x/ was always under a barrage of shit, the board was funded mid-2007.

I'd say /x/'s peak in terms of culture and content creation was 2008 and early 2009 (almost all the classics where made back then, and stuff like the Holders and SCP Foundation got founded there). By late 2009 things began to deteriorate fast with trolling and tripfags. By the end of 2010 the whole place was deserted.

Many people claim /b/ killed the board, but /b/ was always there. /x/ was always divided on the topic.

/x/philes would make threads saying "we will tolerate you as long as you don't spam" and /b/tards would sometimes keep themselves in check. Of course many people didn't like the shitposting and made their voice heard, but most people on /x/ understood / believed that without mods and the board literally being known by /b/ as a home away from home, the best possible option was to try and strike a middle ground. There also where the peeps were full "paranormal is srs bsns" back then, but instead of magic nuts (who where always trolled to oblivion) we had illuminati nuts (who where also trolled but more persistent). But overall people were ok it, from what I gathered.

While /x/ was ruined by mod inactivity, lets not forget that /tg/ was ruined by mod overzealousness.

/tg/ is still in an okay place right now. I don't see too much of an issue with it. A lot more quest threads than there were before, but the mods clearly relaxed the rules a bit. Are you referring to the Star Wars incident? Or was that before/after the whole "Nazimod" thing went down?

Not him, but I think every board on this site could be fixed if they announced it was being changed to the whole site.
Say, I would not visit /v/ daily the way it is right now, but if I saw a announcement saying "/v/ is being changed, read more on its sticky" and I found a sticky on /v/ saying the mods would start to crack down on shitposting, I would definitely start lurking or even posting on it expecting good stuff.

The mods need to actually fucking attempt to care about the board for anything to actually happen. They won't listen to requests for a better sticky, they won't delete stupid shit, they won't give us any actual rules, and they won't stop deleting random threads that are actually fucking /x/ related. If the higher ups of this site don't stop neglecting the dying board, it will never be any better. We have never gotten any sort of solution to these problems. No decent sticky, just a lazy attempt to mitigate reposts which, guess what, didn't fucking work, and the links are dead anyway. When we actually get mods, they delete the threads we've always had. /x/ cannot survive as board with a vague set of topics in 2015. It's all turned to mush. Conspiracy theories are no longer a legitimate topic due to shitposting. The occult is no longer a legitimate topic due to the underaged bringing low quality posting and delusional mental illness. Creepy is no longer a legitimate topic due to newfags and the underaged perpetuating shitposting and yelling at each other.

No they fucking didn't. They're still in fucking /x/. Don't claim shitposters migrated from /x/ to your board when you know nothing about the board you're accusing. The problem posters did not originate in these boards nor did they abandon one for the other. The poster you're replying to was saying we used to have QUALITY discussion about conspiracy theories, which we did. They did not go anywhere to spread tinfoil shitposting because they weren't tinfoil shitposters. The tinfoil shitposters are still fucking here, and we don't fucking want them either.

>>369883
>>369883
I'm sorry but from my perspective it's obvious they are the same people. They even reference and crosspost their /x/ threads on /pol/ sometimes because in their minds there is little difference between /pol/ and /x/. (I hope that's as frightening to you as an /x/phile as it is to me as a /pol/lack)

I want mods to fix the /x/ sticky and >>>/biz/rules/2 as much as you, but for my own board's selfish reasons. Whether rightly or wrongly, /pol/ sends these people to /x/ when they show up on /pol/. It's ingrained into /pol/ culture and ' >>>/x/ ' is a meme there. I couldn't stop them if I wanted to.
>>
>>368649
it's just a slower and less racist /pol/ really
>>
>>369615
This is a problem with the whole site though. The mods have a very narrow set of interests and only care for boards that fit those interests, and every other board is left to rot.

I'm strongly in favor of board-specific mods, because the way we do it now just doesn't work.
>>
>>369624
>>369905
This is true, but the point is that at least those other boards have rules and still somewhat have a community wide grasp on their board's culture. /x/ is a completely different kind of mess. There are literally no rules, and everything (not just the culture and the memes, but the content as well) was handed down and understood without being written. When everyone left and new people flocked in, it just became chaos because nobody knows what's supposed to be there, not even the mods. The amount of anons that left had such a great impact on the community (a majority of a small community leaving and a shitload of new users replacing them) is different from some of the other boards on here. I don't think there is another board on here that has undergone such a radical change in the userbase that so much of its culture has literally been forgotten by the majority. You can understand how that would have destroyed both the culture and the post quality of the board. I didn't mean to imply /x/ was the only board affected, but it has literally nothing to go by except the unwritten, which is obsolete in 2015 with the current userbase and exodus/refusal to post of/by oldfags.

No, I get it. Believe me: /x/ was my first board.

I'm just explaining the root of the problem. And Moot always hated codifying things in rules and preferred to leave it as something that was "passed down," which, in nearly every case, has fucked over boards.

But I agree: no board got it harder than /x/. Probably because the mods always thought it was a joke.

Have this: http://sanctuary.prelucid.com/library/index.php?title=Main_Page

It's rather small but it provides an example of 2008-2009 era /x/.

>>369554
This would be great, but pointless. The writefags are long gone, the culture died.

We could try, maybe ask hiro one day, but the new board would probably not survive the trial period.

Anon you can't have quality discussion about conspiracies. Conspiracies literally require you to shut down the rational part of your brain.

More or less. Modern /x/ is different a community.

I accept that the /x/ I grew up and discovered so much stuff with is no longer, now we must focus on helping modern /x/.

It's very hard because painting /x/ as an unironic discussion board is practically impossible: You can't really "debate" conspiracies, you can't talk about magic with a straight face, so quality always goes to hell by the first post.

At the same time there's many different kinds of "conspiracies" and many of them are not even paranormal in nature, not even the mods know where they belong on.

I think we need to get someone with authority, maybe even Hiro, to make a decision. Maybe an ama on /x/. It's clear that no matter how you define /x/ someone will not like it, but there isn't much of a choice.

> I don't think there is another board on here that has undergone such a radical change in the userbase that so much of its culture has literally been forgotten by the majority

The mods didn't even knew what /x/ was when the original community existed. moot just created it when he saw creepy threads where becoming commonplace on /b/ and then forgot about the board.

I'm convinced the mods are purposely ignoring anything suggested on the feedback page. We'd have to get in direct contact with Hiro.
>>
>>369983
The mods are too opinionated, but they do read the feedback page. They'll listen to stuff like showing that a referral site (which are put on an autoban filter) no longer does referrers and stuff dealing with site issues n clarifying rules.

But if they feel your suggestion is "4chan" enough they'll simply ignore it. Unfortunately moot did too good of a job in indoctrinating them.
>>
>>369984
>>369983
>>369982

The reality is that the majority of the problems with modern 4chan are due to moot's bad attitude regarding the site.

/tg/ only became the Quest Board because moot didn't want Quests on /a/. He didn't care about the result afterwards; just that it wasn't on /a/.

Why moot's mods are still on the site is beyond me. They treat the users as their enemies.

>People are just sick of getting ignored by the mods.
This place isn't meant to be /q/ though. Nowhere was it ever said that mods would come in and actually look at and reply to threads made here.
>>
>>371218
Except for all the times Hiro did just that.
>>
>>371222
That still doesn't make this place /q/. He has been on multiple boards and addressed problems on them not just here.
Just because he replied in a thread around here doesn't mean that it is like how /q/ was with mods actually being interactive with people making suggestions. If anything the lack of mod replies bar the occasional Hiro appearance reaffirms that.
>>
>>371218

I'm pretty sure it actually is supposed to be nu-/q/, since all the changes that Hiro has made have been suggestions on this board. He's not very good with 4chan, but he comes to this board a lot for suggestions.

There's still some salty [s4s] types hanging around though.
>>
Can't really blame anybody spamming for mod attention. It's the only thing that actually works.

Remember /tg/ and the /wst/ fiasco?
>>
>>371231
Only real suggestions he has taken from here was /his/ and /aco/.
Change on /sp/ with wresting was taken from /sp/.
The nipple thing on /a/ was all done on /a/.
The /lit/ problem with philosophy after /his/ was made was taken from /lit/.
He took in suggestions on /trash/ about the fur posting and even came close to making a /fur/ board until people advised against it.
So really you can't say this is exactly nu-/q/ especially since mods don't actually reply to threads here like they use to on the /q/.
>>
>>371243
Normally people do it on their own board though. Example being any time a mod does something /a/ doesn't like such as the nipple thing recently and then the loli ban thing a few years back.

>>
>>371264
>any threads are deleted in minutes
I guess that is the problem. Places like /a/ has the power of numbers so it gets attention when so many threads are about the subject. Though if you could organise something you could maybe spark some attention as one or two threads on a board just end up looking like a vocal minority (also applies to spamming threads with only a handful of unique IPs in each).
>>
>>371256
There are a million other places on the internet where you can get your shitty fur porn. We don't want or need it here.
>>
>>371222
That's because Hiro is confused. For starers he shouldn't be here, he should be off in other boards interacting with them. He's going to learn jackshit from a meta board
>>
>>371273
If their mods are deleting threads about it on their home boards, how can they organize anything on their home boards?
>>
>>371299
I mean that's cool and all, but it doesn't change the reality of what hiro is actually doing.
>>
>>371299
>He's going to learn jackshit from a meta board
This is why moot closed /q/ (along with it being a whiny shithole).
Was full of people who thought they knew what was best for a board when either they didn't visit that board in the first place or they was a vocal minority. You don't get any indication of how a board feels without asking it directly since you don't get the full picture since only the people complaining will come no matter how big or small of a group they are.
>>
>>371299
The issues is that meta-threads are deleted from other boards so people aren't able to voice their opinions there. Hiro has occasionally talked on other boards about these things but for the most part any suggestion threads will be quickly deleted
>>
>>371307
Pretty sure Hiro said for meta-threads to be posted on the boards they applied to, but "muh global rules" makes the mods delete them
>>
>>371305
>reality of what hiro is actually doing
Ignore the threads? Some of the /aco/ /d/ threads have been up for months now and nothing happend.

>>371303
Well it doesn't stop you organising it on /qa/. Though just looking at the IP count in threads though it seems to only have around 10-20 IPs that have been complaining.
>>
>>371307
I normally find that threads with a shit OP derail into a meta thread every now and again. Though that is only on /a/, so I am not so sure if it ends up like that on other boards.
>>
>>371310
>though just looking at the IP count in threads though it seems to only have around 10-20 IPs that have been complaining.
The issue is most people don't come here so don't get a chance to voice their complaints even if they actually have an opinion on the matter. If these threads were made on the relevant boards then I'm sure a lot more people would speak out
>>
>>371307
Meta-threads are allowed when Hiro shows up and a little after. That doesn't really matter, Hiro shouldn't be changing anything. He's a newfag. Asking him to change shit is like giving a 12 year old newfag admin status and to change things. Instead of trying to get him to change shit, we should instead just fucking interact with him for a few months and get his opinion of the site to change from 'lele meme' and 'le anonmouse haxor'.

He isn't an idiot, but he sure as hell doesn't know how to run the site. The /asp/ shit shows that. 4chan isn't 2ch and he needs to stop treating it as such

>One thing that has notably changed in /d/, along with the more hostile attitude is the dropping of more niche fetishes. Seriously, before /aco/, stuff like inanimate tf would stay on the board for a few weeks at a time before being filled. Now it just fizzles away because no Western content. Meanwhile, the doll tf thread is filled with Western art and that's why it's lasted for so long. [...] losing a lot of the /d/ stuff to /aco/ really hit the board hard.

>Since /aco/ was established, any Western art has been disallowed on /d/, which is quite possibly the dumbest decision that could have been made. While I can understand that for /h/, /d/ should exist as a containment board for bizarre drawn porn of any origin. Not only for the purpose of keeping it away from the more 'normal' boards, but also so it doesn't divide already niche fetishes between two boards.These threads used to flourish and hit the image limits, back when images of any origin could be posted, but now they either last an hour or two, or have to be on life support just to stick around.

Because the removed ones were fucking reported. OPM is the /v/ermin show of the season, and they are incapable of using the report feature.

>So you admit there's no consistency?
Yes, of course there isn't. The mods have always been like that. In this case, the anti-OPM posts are fucking obvious bait that lack any form of creativity and they got removed because someone actually reported those ones

Stop making a problem out of something were there is nothing wrong. The mods are doing their job as they should. If the mods were fucking babysitting the threads deleting anyone bullying the show, there would of been shittons more bans. But there wasn't, because they aren't

Shitposting is defined in the FAQ as a post that was deliberately made for the purpose of being shitty. If it's just some fag from /v/ posting his opinion about anime with a dumb reaction image that's not against the rules, as much as you want it to be.

Unless what you really want is for the mods to vigilantly delete every post that doesn't pass their own quality threshold, in which case depending on the mod you'd lose 90% of /a/.

>But wait a minute, people go off topic all the time on /a/ and nothing happens. Mods also usually always delete any posts with /v/ tier images (like wojak and pepe), but here, nope. Please explain.
You're not even bitching about a "happening" anymore. All you're doing is complaining that people who deliberately set out to troll others are not treated the same way as people who make "low-quality posts."

If I were a mod I'd delete all your posts for being low-quality and retarded.
>>
>>371766
Yes anon, shitposting isn't fucking against the rules, it never has been. What's against the rule is low quality posting, which is what most shitposting it. On-topic shitposting is allowed as long you don't start acting like a complete retard

Nipples have always been against the rules on all NSFW boards. It so happens that /a/'s favorite darling mod did not enforce this rule for many many years, to the point where everybody assumed that it was "the rule."

Instead of fucking complaining about how /a/ is posting board related content and actually discussing things instead of shitposting, how about you try and let your board post tiddies from official works. That is, if your home board can do that without devolving into porn dumps or entire thread made just for tit dumping. /a/ is allowed to, because a good fucking portion of the board related content has ecchi-like content and it'd be retarded to not allow it

We've been over this. It's not. I can't go into a Gochuu thread and post a single image (so it's not dumping) of Chino taking like, five dicks because - surprise - people don't want to see that shit. You can post figures, but you can't post hotglue. This "explanation" is a bunch of hot garbage.

?Instead of fucking complaining about how /a/ is posting board related content and actually discussing things instead of shitposting
You already won the war on staff. Why get righteously angry about it even now?

>You're going to have to cite were it was said the dev only recently added that deature
It literally never happened before. I'd say that's a pretty good sign. Who knows, maybe thread moving has been around for 10 years and they only started using it now.
>>
>>371814
>i cant go into a thread and post fucking fan art porn
Are you literally retarded and incapable of reading what was just said? Even the fucking mod post says it. YOU CAN POST NSFW O F F I C A L FOR NON-PORN ANIME AND MANGA

>but you can't post hotglue.
Because thats fucking inciting people and if I recall that was banned for a reason I can't remember

>You already won the war on staff. Why get righteously angry about it even now?
Why are you getting fucking angry about literally nothing that was never a problem

Even if the dev only recently added it. It was at best a few lines of code that ads a fucking checkbox on the mods side and thats it. You are making a deal out of nothing

You are upset over fucking nothing and the site has never been sfw in any form. The fact you can post fucking ecchi content from non-porn series on /a/ fucking tells you that
>>
>>371819
>Are you literally retarded and incapable of reading what was just said?
Yes. I read what you said. It's this: "Anon, 4chan isn't fucking sfw and the boards have never been sfw. The rule is only there to prevent porn dumping." And it's not true. The rule is also there to protect people's delicate sensibilities.

>Because thats fucking inciting people and if I recall that was banned for a reason I can't remember
It was banned because moot thought it was fucking disgusting. And how the fuck is it "inciting", as long as I'm not using it to troll?

>You are upset over fucking nothing and the site has never been sfw in any form.

(hit submit early)

"No. Worksafe boards are worksafe -- period. Not every board needs friggin' porn."
"Not every board needs to be porn/have NSFW content. We have plenty of boards for it."
"NWS material on worksafe board has *always* been against the rules. We didn't have enough janitors to enforce it consistently in the past. Now we do."
- moot
>>
>>371822
>The rule is also there to protect people's delicate sensibilities.
Why am I even arguing with a retard? If the rule was their to protect peoples sensibilities, why have you always been able to post NSFW content from offical non-porn series on /a/?

>as long as I'm not using it to troll?
Maybe that's because anyone who's hot glueing shit and posting it has that as their intention

>>371826
If you are going to post quotes, at-least provide screenshots. Anyone can fucking come up quotes that sound like moot. Even in those ones, it fucking obvious the goal is to stop pointless porn dumping/posting, not official nsfw content. And yes, there is a difference between official content and fanart. NSFW fan art isn't allowed
>>
>>371822
>The rule is only there to prevent porn dumping." And it's not true. The rule is also there to protect people's delicate sensibilities.
See
>>371810
moot said it is only there to stop porn dumps nothing more nothing less.

Also are you saying you would use the type of discussion that happens on blue boards in front of your boss at work? As I am pretty sure it would help work your way to getting fired.
>>
>>371830
>If the rule was their to protect peoples sensibilities, why have you always been able to post NSFW content from offical non-porn series on /a/?
Because some NSFW offends people more than others.

>Maybe that's because anyone who's hot glueing shit and posting it has that as their intention
There are entire password-protected Japanese imageboards where figure collectors share pictures of their hotglued figures. These people are not "trolling." They are sharing their love for figurines in their own unique way.

>If you are going to post quotes, at-least provide screenshots.
Desustorage /q/.
>>
>>371831
>moot said it is only there to stop porn dumps nothing more nothing less.
moot, in that particular quote, certainly didn't say it was "only there" to stop porn dumps. He offered it as a reason.

>Also are you saying you would use the type of discussion that happens on blue boards in front of your boss at work?
I feel sorry for anyone who's boss spends their time hovering behind them reading what they type, but that aside, SFW is used as a classifier, not because everybody should be browsing 4chan at work.
>>
>>371835
>Because some NSFW offends people more than others.
That's a shitty excuse anon, as 4chan has never made rules based on peoples feelings except for furrys and horsefuckers

Anon, I can ensure you. Almost everyone who posted hot glued figs on 4chan had the likely intention of trying to upset someone

>Desustorage /q/.
Nigga I ain't searching. If you want to fucking prove it, you spoonfeed me it. You don't make an argument and then go 'to prove my argument you need to search for the answers yourself'
>>
>>371841
>That's a shitty excuse anon, as 4chan has never made rules based on peoples feelings except for furrys and horsefuckers
Pretty much every rule 4chan has, it has because somebody was unhappy about what people were posting. Like, say, guro.

>Almost everyone who posted hot glued figs on 4chan had the likely intention of trying to upset someone
Is someone going to get upset now? I thought we just established that 4chan didn't give a shit about your feelings. And IIRC somebody melted a Sonico just fine without getting banned for "upsetting people."

>Nigga I ain't searching.
I've already spoonfed you the content, what you're looking for the source. As I recall, /a/ doesn't usually provide that when search engines are available for that exclusive purpose.
>>
>>371839
>He offered it as a reason
And where has he said it is to "protect people's delicate sensibilities"?

>SFW is used as a classifier, not because everybody should be browsing 4chan at work
So you admit it isn't the standard definition of SFW?
>>
>>371846
>And where has he said it is to "protect people's delicate sensibilities"?
People's sensibilities is pretty much the only reason content is demarcated into "acceptable" and "not acceptable."

>So you admit it isn't the standard definition of SFW?
On 4chan it tends to refer to images with nudity or sexual content, and not so much "unacceptable" text content.
>>

Report them

Hop to the #4chan IRC and ask a mod to check them out.

>>371306
he closed it because he got upset people weren't licking his boots or rather because he had false expectations of /q/ and never stopped to think for a second his intended use of the board was impossible to achieve at this stage. His finals posts on the board where fucking vitriolic. That said, his and the mod's main statement for the deletion of /q/ was because it was getting continually spammed by delete /pol/ threads.

>>371256
Have you seen the massive amounts of furry whining after /aco/ was made?

They are still drama, even after all these years.

>>371349
The difference between /aco/ and all the porn boards is that /aco/ is a community. That's explicitly what /co/ wanted.

The anime porn boards are "legacy" boards that are subject to weird standards of what they should be. Even if they stopped strongly moderating /d/ for years and allowed it to become a community they destroyed all that just to fit that weird standard.

I can't remember why that was banned, but even if it was banned from peoples feelings, it would of ended up with a global ban one day. The only place were it has any relevance is /b/ and its clones

>Is someone going to get upset now? I thought we just established that 4chan didn't give a shit about your feelings. And IIRC somebody melted a Sonico just fine without getting banned for "upsetting people."
>You will not post any of the following outside of /b/: Trolls, flames,
This falls under troll or flaming dude. Posting hot gluing figs is a troll, thats meant to create a flame war. Moot finding it disgusting was just icing on the cake. I can't even remember why we are discussing this one. Melting figs isn't inciting negative responses, its fucking funny. If you melt anything rare or expensive, then thats a different story

I'm not fucking looking for the source when I"m not the one whos trying to use it to prove a point
>>
>>371856
>The only place were it has any relevance is /b/ and its clones
How is it not relevant to /d/?
>>

>>

>I can't remember why that was banned
Because people don't want to see that shit. This isn't fucking rocket science.

>Posting hot gluing figs is a troll, thats meant to create a flame war.
I sure hope you're not the guy who was originally complaining about the OPM deletions.

>I can't even remember why we are discussing this one.
I'm explaining to you that lots of things are banned on /a/ because people do not want to look at them.

>I'm not fucking looking for the source
Then don't, you helpless retard.

Fuck no. Why the fuck would a /v/ermin try and defend /a/'s right to post official nsfw content?

>Then don't, you helpless retard.
Good, because unless you spoonfeed me, those quotes are nothing but fakes
>>
>>371860
That was when guro had its own board so therefore it didn't belong on /d/. Also, there is plenty of non-dickgirl content on /d/ such as tentacles and scat. I highly doubt guro would flood the board when no one even posts it on /b/, so it makes sense for it to go there as it is alternative hentai
>>
>>371867
>Good, because unless you spoonfeed me, those quotes are nothing but fakes
As expected of a lazy, entitled shit-eater.
>>
>>371869
Scat is explicitly banned from /d/.

>>
>>371849
>People's sensibilities is pretty much the only reason content is demarcated into "acceptable" and "not acceptable."
Sounds like it is your interpretation than anything that has been specifically said then. Based upon what moot said, it was just a rule designed to stop porn images being posted. Not, to protect the users feelings and such.

>On 4chan it tends to refer to images with nudity or sexual content, and not so much "unacceptable" text content.
So you admit that you can post NSFW text content on SFW boards showing that be board isn't exactly SFW (by the normal definition)? So the only difference between blue and red is the picture content, preventing blue boards becoming centred around posting porn.
>>
>>371884
>Anon, the problem here is that you made a claim and you need to back the fucking thing up.
I gave you a quote. I gave you a source. You don't need to search it up if you truly enjoy being a helpless retard who allows in your own ignorance.

>meant to do
This is take it or leave it. If you refuse to look it up you will forever remain in a state of proud and obstinate ignorance. I'm actually perfectly fine with that.

You can declare outright that I'm lying if you want. I don't mind. It just means that anybody who does care will see you for the ignorance piece of shit that you are.
>>
>>371885
>Based upon what moot said, it was just a rule designed to stop porn images being posted.
Why would you want to stop porn images from being posted? Oh, I know. It's because people don't want to see it.

>So the only difference between blue and red is the picture content
Has anyone ever argued that you can't post about how you want to fuck X character on a blue board? No? Why bring it up?
>>
>>371889
No. You gave me a quote, and you told me it was on /q/ on desustorage. You didn't give me jack. All you did was told me to validate your argument myself, instead of you fucking validating your own argument. I'm not doing that. I'm not living in ignorance either, you told me the quotes and they actually sound moot like. I'll believe you, but I'm not validating your argument for you

>>371890
>Oh, I know. It's because people don't want to see it.
It's because any fucking board that allows porn would quickly fucking drown in it. This one is obvious and /b/ is the perfect example of it. You are allowed to post anything on /b/, yet, everyone has ALWAYS instead resorted to posting porn
>>
>>371890
>It's because people don't want to see it.
No, it's because it just turns every board into a porn dump or /b/ and distracts from discussion
>Has anyone ever argued that you can't post about how you want to fuck X character on a blue board
When Hiro came to /a/ to discuss the deletion of SFW loli images, there was a discussion over whether or not you should be allowed to say you want to fuck a loli. Eventually it was decided that it was okay (as long as it was a 2D loli)
>>
>>371892
>I'll believe you, but I'm not validating your argument for you.
Awesome. I never asked you to look them up in the first place, so my claim will tragically remain forever unvalidated by anyone.

>You are allowed to post anything on /b/, yet, everyone has ALWAYS instead resorted to posting porn.
Maybe it's because /b/ has no topic? You can post porn in /u/ but it's sure not fucking /b/.
>>
>>371890
>It's because people don't want to see it.
That is not the same as having hurt feelings. It is just wanting to have actual discussion instead of threads full of people dumping porn images. Is a difference.

>Has anyone ever argued that you can't post about how you want to fuck X character on a blue board? No? Why bring it up?
Because the post here >>371826 seemed to indicate that you think the site is somehow SFW.
>>
It's worth noting that "non worksafe" does not necessarily mean porn. As an example, /pol/ is a red board despite porn being banned
>>
>>371894
>so my claim will tragically remain forever unvalidated by anyone.
Good, because you will forever be remembered as the retard who was upset he had to prove he argument

>using fucking /u/ as a example
/u/ is actually a special case. I'm not sure what it is with yuri that makes people so retarded, but it somehow does. /u/ is also full of shipperfags who'll probably cause flame wars if you posted yuri porn with parings they didn't like. Lets use a better example. If you allowed porn on /mlp/, it would, without a doubt, become clophaven
>>
>>371903
>Good, because you will forever be remembered as the retard who was upset he had to prove he argument
Bitch please, I've given a source that literally fucking anybody with an internet connection and a working brain could look up. You might as well complain that all research papers have worthless citations unless they contain inline links to everything they cite.

A good portion of online research papers provide direct links to citations provided digitally faggot. You aren't citing a fucking book, you are citing a site, so its only expected that you link to it as well

Then I guess you'll just never fucking know whether I told you the truth or not! I'm practically creaming myself with glee knowing the number of mysteries in the universe has gone up by one.
