Please consider making /r9k/ a work safe blue board.
The quality of the board has improved slightly since the robot filter was brought back, however more work needs to be done to fix it and make and allow it to serve it's intended purpose, and not just function as another typical random/off-topic board.
Switching the board to blue board will cut back on poor quality posts. There's also really no need to post porn on /r9k/ since there are already plenty of other boards that currently exist for that purpose. The potential new content will also remain unaffected since images are not filtered by the robot.
There's plenty of potential upside and no downside by implementing this change.
Thank you for your consideration.
They need to ban:
>scat
>porn
>fembot
>rate me
>gay weebtrash shitposters
>>399863
Yes.
Hiroshima Nagaski pls do it.
>>399878
The first two you listed would be resolved by making it a blue board.
The Rate Me threads should already be bannable if I am understanding the rules correctly, and should be contained on /soc/.
>>399863
I would love a worksafe /b/ in general and if /r9k/ became blue, I'd post there. I mostly want to do weird drawings-by-request threads.
>>399863
>and allow it to serve it's intended purpose, and not just function as another typical random/off-topic board.
It's intended purpose is being a random board with the robot filter applied, you fucking moron
>>400253
You're missing the point of the robot filter, cretin.
>>400349
Yes, the robot filter is meant to prevent people from saying the same thing and be creative. That's exactly what's happening on happening on /r9k/. They aren't technically saying the same thing, but they are creatively getting past the filter to do the same as always
/r9k/ was a experiment and its a failed experiment at that. The robot is too flawed to work on its own. The board was meant to just be a /b/ with the robot and that's exactly what it is.
>>399863
It's not like it even fucking matters anymore.
Mods should just permanently ban çucks who post porn on SFW boards instead of petty one day or three day bans.
>>400770
cuck isn't filtered anymore. No need to add sexy french commas that turn Cs into Ss.
>>400770
should also ban people who use the word "cuck"
Shitposting would decrease instantaneously.
>>399863
This is actually a good idea, and is certainly better than just having a shitty filter that a literal retard could pass. Too bad it probably won't happen because no one gives a shit about /r9k/ anymore.
>>399863
I disagree, OP.
/r9k/ is a very good NSFW board. It's a higher quality /b/.
If you want a SFW /b/ then you should ask for a new board. Leave /r9k/ alone, the robot works.
>>401506
>/r9k/ is a very good NSFW board
Why does it need to be NSFW though? It would be even better as a SFW board
>>401515
No, it wouldn't. Because you couldn't discuss all issues like you can now. If you want a blue /b/ = random SFW discussions, then you should apply for a new board and not destroying an old one.
The less mod intervention the better. A blue /b/ is something completely different than a high quality /b/, which is what /r9k/ is now.
>>399863
>Please consider making /r9k/ a work safe blue board.
Why don't you simply go to /int/.
/int/ is what you're looking for.
What's the score with wage cuck boy and britfeel?
I can only assume they've evaded countless bans, and so now the focus is just on containment.
I don't really want to share a board with people like that.
>>401517
>Because you couldn't discuss all issues like you can now
What? Blue boards can have the same discussion as red boards, it only limits image posting
>>401539
>What? Blue boards can have the same discussion as red boards, it only limits image posting
You're downplaying the issue. By making it SFW you introduce mods and limit free discussion. For example you couldn't discuss sexuality related topics.
What /r9k/ needs to be is wiped of the face of the planet and any feel poster needs to be life-banned on sight.
>>401570
>Reddit fag projecting himself onto /r9k/ and feelfags
>>401596
>e-e-everything I don't like is reddit
No. Fuck you. Do not even dare play that card on someone who has been both here and on the internet significantly longer than you have. I remember a time where nobody on 4chan gave a fucking shit about "feels". Nobody cared whether you had something to fuck or not. Ever since that shit has come creeping in, 4chan in general and especially /r9k/ has been about being the specialest snowflake, sort of like an oppression olympics for white boys, and ever since that happened the site went down the fucking drain. This cancer needs to be exterminated by all means necessary, even if that means having to ask the faggot mods for help. To quote another cancer: get off my board re.
>>401636

>>401550
Yes you could, SFW only applies to images.
>>401915
>Yes you could, SFW only applies to images.
A discussion on sexuality related topics should never be SFW, neither text nor images.
>>402230
What? How do you think /lgbt/ functions as a blue board then? And it's not like there isn't plenty of discussion about porn and sex on /a/ and probably other blue boards as well, as long as it remains on topic (which wouldn't be a problem for /r9k/)
>>402230
What? Anon, 4chan is 18+ for a reason. The entire website is nsfw and the sfw rules exist only to stop discussion boards from drowning in porn. Stop getting a upset dick over nothing
>>402273
No, the website is 18+ because a lot of boards are purely for porn, therefore it's legally required to have this 18+ restriction in place. Since blue boards are still on the same domain, they legally receive this same restriction, but it's the website owner's choice whether they want to make certain non porn areas on the website safe for work or not.
>>399863
>serve it's intended purpose, and not just function as another typical random/off-topic board.
That is its purpose.
>>402462
Why don't other websites have this legal requirement? Reddit, for example
>>402465
They do. Every 18+ subreddit has its own "you have to be 18 to view this subreddit" message.
Yes, it could be possible to implement that on 4chan as well, but there are likely reason why they haven't done that before, mainly because noone actually wants underaged children here.
fuck yes i am so for this idea
sick of the constant gay/trap/sissy/cuteboys threads
fucking disgusting shit
also this would end bbc cuck spam
>>402475
>implying /fit/ and /tv/ being blue boards has stopped those people from posting
The problem is the demographic, not whether it's a red or blue board.
>>402479
With the current resident /r9k/ staff member, who bans IN FAVOR of these people, that's not going to happen, obviously.
>>402477
You cannot compare subject specific boards to /r9k/.
>>402532
I can, because /r9k/'s awful userbase actually managed to force a board subject through on a subjectless one, which is basically a gender related version of /pol/.
You can very much compare this to every other board.
>>402536
>which is basically a gender related version of /pol/.
No, it's not. You can discuss any topic you like on /r9k/. Since there are already a lot of other, topic specific boards on 4chan, /r9k/ is as it is.
If you want a general SFW board, go to /int/
>>402540
Officially? Of course you can, but the combination of a userbase.
Have you ever been to /r9k/ lately? As it is right now, it's nothing but a breeding pit for heavily autistic NEETs posting as much sexism as humanly possible, similar to how /pol/ just loves to post as much antisemitism as possible. This is where I make my comparison.
Now, in theory, as you said, it is indeed possible to post absolutely anything bar total shitposts as defined by the global rules, but the recent issue on /r9k/ is an apparent janitor (or mod) who seems to one of said gender-/pol/s, happily deleting anything that suits a Redditor MRA mindset. And as long as this demographic continues to dominate /r9k/ along with that sympathetic mod, you can't treat /r9k/ as a random board.
>>402544
What are you talking about? What topics got deleted? What SFW topics can't be discussed at /int/?
>>402544

http://desustorage.org/r9k/thread/25329546/
Here's an example. Notice the rampart shitposting throughout the thread. These posters are in every single one thread like this. Haven't even seen a single one of them get banned, either, not in realtime nor on the bans page.
>/int/
Videogames. Animals and nature. You know, basically everything that doesn't have anything to do with international culture.
>>402560
It's a hobby.
>>402566
>Here's an example.
It's a bad example, there are many many fembot feels: http://desustorage.org/r9k/search/text/Fembot%20Feels%20/type/op/
I don't know why that thread was deleted, maybe it was an accident or spam.
Every board needs to be a red board, with gore, vile porn, etc. being accepted. Maybe then the tumblr/reddit retards will fuck off if you're allowed to post shit that triggers them without being banned for 3 days.
Notice how it's all the blue boards like /v/, /co/, /a/ that attract the "safe space" faggots?
>>402649
>Notice how it's all the blue boards like /v/, /co/, /a/ that attract the "safe space" faggots?
This. Feminists and other filth can only survive when deviating opinions are deleted and banned.
>>402653
I don't think porn actually qualify as "opinion".
Incidentally, degree of irony of accusing your opponent of being unable to function without censorship while you want to scare them off by obscene content is through the roof.
>>402672
>I don't think porn actually qualify as "opinion".
If you don't want porn, go to /int/.
There is barely any porn at /r9k/, but sometimes it is needed for the topic.
>>402683
Personally, I don't care for porn one way or another. Although, I find it pointless outside designated zones, since I can't comfortably masturbate in the middle of a discussion.
That wasn't what my post is about.
>>399863
This is ridiculous.
>The quality of the board has improved slightly since the robot filter was brought back
No, it hasn't. /r9k/ is identical, except now everyone's a tad more annoyed about random mutes. Plus /r9k/ is a nice enough board, I love it, my homeboard, but the only shitposts are the antifembot posts.
> There's also really no need to post porn on /r9k/
Let people post whatever they like as long as it's related to the topic. making the board blue just hinders that.
>There's plenty of potential upside and no downside by implementing this change.
most of the board spurging out because something unnecessary was done to further filter an already okay board is an upside?
>>399878
>fembot
I've never even seen the issue with this. If they aren't treating us like shit and want to be in the community why don't we cherish that, we're betas having people who are actually interested in integrating with us.
I would agree with this. /r9k/ is just /b/ but with less porn, getting rid of it entirely would promote more 'worthwhile' content,
>>402689
>but the only shitposts are the antifembot posts.
There are no girls on /r9k/ anyway:

>>402672
If you want a place where no one will call you a nigger, go anywhere else. Go on social media where some people will be scared to do it because it's tied to their identity. Go on some forum or subreddit where you'll be banned for doing it or for saying anything non-PC. The great part about 4chan is that you don't have to worry about that.
Femtards are free to post on 4chan and try to turn it into another pussified safe space but no one has to make it easy for them. Gore and an atmosphere where porn is all over the place keeps the weaker ones from staying around too long or festering.

/int/ is for international culture discussion and foreign general threads
r9k is for OC only
>>402742
officially /r9k/ is for OC only, but none of it is OC (thankfully)
It's just a feels/lonely board, so i agree it's not like /int/ though..don't see any relation
>>402746
If it's a lonely/feels board then why not make it SFW?
>>399863
Why don't we just make a /neet/ board already?!
Please DON'T do this! /r9k/ is a haven where people can vent and get their true feelings out, without slogging through all of /b/'s bullshit (who HAS been to /b/ in the last six years, anyway?). It's real, it's raw, it's exactly what it's meant to be. Syphoning the gay stuff to its own board would make sense, but I'm on there all the time and I don't see scat/piss threads. Besides, does no one have the "hide thread" option?
>>402739
>why would you want to do this, they're females who like betas, plus sfw wouldnt solve that
These women (if you believe they even are women because they arent) don't like betas. they like the attention and discourse they cause. sfw board will stop them from posting nudes and creatin a thread with 400 replies that stays up for 3 days
>it's trap feels not porn, why would sfw change any of that
it's not usually. It's almost always trannies talking about their fetishes like piss, scat, being beaten, etc and then posting their dicks and asses
>>402748
because why do you need to? it's literally pointless.
>>402751
>fembots posting nudes
This post is obviously trolling, i apologize to everyone else for taking the bait
>>402755
>Okay, what exactly is it you want to see on r9k that requires to to not be sfw?
Every discussion about things like sexuality, accidents, art, calling women parasites etc.
If you want a blue /b/ then apply for /bb/, don't destroy a functioning NSFW board.
>>402755
>attention whoring
The whole board is posting about your feelings, so you're going to need to be specific about which sect is being MORE attentionwhoring than everyone else
>>402755
this
>>402752
It literally doesn't change r9k except by removing porn and gore. The greentext all stays the same. The only difference is that people don't post shit like "how can you love a woman who had cum on her face" or "cucking is the relationship dynamic of the future".
It would seriously only do good for the world.
>bring about an idea that would not change r9k in any way except making nipples and roasties bannable
Literally just making life worse for the people who browse it.
>>402764
>this
Honestly, it does nothing. plus, if you're 'offended' by porn, why be on 4chan
>>402761
Specifically people posting nudes of themselves to garner attention and an instant 400+ reply post
>>402760
you can still call women parasites on a sfw board.
your LE POST NORMIES GETTING REKT threads are shit because there are only so many of those videos on the web and back when those threads were popular they were just full of rampant reposting and circlejerking like a YLYL thread
Never seen an art thread on r9k besides autistic train and architecture posting. art doesn't have to include naked people
sexuality threads have a 100% rate of devolving into trannies and fags exchanging steams while jacking off, posting anime pictures, and showing off their cocks and anuses
What really needs to be done is to turn /r9k/ into a virgin board.
Ban everyone who admits to being a non-virgin.
>>402764
how in the literal fuck does making roasties bannable make the board worse? it will make the board better.
>>402775
This.
Normalfags making threads like this because they want to laugh at robots while at work with their gfs. Fuck off.
>>399863
In favour. Trap threads are so frequent they are just spam. On average there are probably more active traps threads on /r9k/ than /soc/ at any given moment
Just ban fags and tell them to go to lgbt. No need to make the board blue.
>>402733
I don't care about porn. I don't like idea of making non-porn themed boards red because porn tend to derail otherwise perfectly good threads, but I'm perfectly happy with porn. I also would like to be able to brouse 4chan when I have gaps in worktime, because I've got nothing better to do between tasks and I'd rather it not be porn.
Your idea is to use porn to scare off people who disagree with you so they don't create "safe spaces". That's hilarious.

So you want /b/ and /pol/ and to be blue boards too? I don't think you understand what this site is.
>porn tend to derail otherwise perfectly good threads
So could any SFW lewd image or anything else to be quite frank with you family.
>I also would like to be able to brouse 4chan when I have gaps in worktime
Find another site or SFW board to browse then, there are countless ones. You're somehow fine with being seen browsing a site like 4chan and all the just borderline SFW stuff you see here at work but not a pair of tits, Just disable images if you really feel it's necessary.
>Your idea is to use porn to scare off people who disagree with you so they don't create "safe spaces".
That's usually what happens if you let everyone in, they start making their own rules to replace those already in place. The point is that it makes the board uninviting to them.
>>402790

No, your claim that it should be allowed to scare off tumblr is.
I do not consider porn an opinion, so I'm not going to stand up for it outside dedicated and everything-goes boards
>>402817
Scaring off tumblr is just a nice side-effect of being allowed to post whatever you want because these people can't handle that. People don't post porn for that purpose. Seriously what is so hard to get about this? Find another board if you don't want to see porn.
>>402817
>I do not consider porn an opinion
Fuck off. SFW is much more than just forbidding porn. Porn is forbidden on /pol/ and yet it's a NSFW board.
SFW includes everything, from calling women "cunts" and blacks "niggers", to posting modern art and talking about sexbots.
>>402824
Making a board SFW also expands powers of mods.
>>402824
Never had any problems with using profanity on blue boards.

/r9k/ needs names and trips removed just like on /b/
>>399863

I've experienced it myself as well, but almost every thread regarding females seems to get deleted during US time evening. The people posting them actually haven't ever gotten banned or warned for them, and I've had multiple of my own threads like it deleted. This is probably to avoid any real outrage among posters, and thus avoid being noticed by other staff members. I very much doubt a lot of them ever even go to /r9k/ because of how shit it is. That's why I think it's, in fact, a rogue staff member abusing his powers to promote his interest.
