>making a board for literally everything
We /reddit/ now
God I want to punch that alien right in his stupid orange eyeballs. Every time.
>>511063
No, he is only making boards for pointless shit the site doesn't need.
Half of the already existing boards are pointless. An origami board has never been necessary.

slow boards =/= dead boards
>>512004
Friendly reminder that slow boards are best boards, and it's not even a close call.
>>511063
Yeah I guess we always have been since /b/ actually is literally a board for literally everything, and I do mean that literally literally, not the incorrect way you use it you fucking faggot
>>512010
It's better to consolidate though, if it's extremely slow and the board is specialized enough that it can be absorbed into another one. That should be done.
The main reason why 4chan has survived for so long while every other chan clone fails is because moot did not allow for specialized boards and kept forcing interaction between different groups as opposed to separating them all into their own little clubs. If you do that, it will just create an endless cycle of tribalism that continue to fracture the community and kill it in the end.
>>512254
>moot did not allow for specialized boards
He created a board for origami, that seems very specialized to me. And a board just for mecha anime.
>>511063
Fuck off, you don't know how badly we needed to get quests off /tg/.
>>511063
That doesn't make the site like reddit. If anything it makes the site more like CrippleChan.

>>512473
Calling something a meme doesn't make it false.
>>512474
I remember the meta threads bitching
averaging 10-15 unique IPs with both sides.
the majority of tg was indifferent
next up is the front page (use the catalog anon its the bees knees) or half the board is quests (10 out of 150 is not half)
>>512481
I've legit seen times in which there were ~25 quest threads out of 150, that's worse than the owlspam on /vp/ right now. Saying half the board is quests is obviously an exaggeration but they cut into a good chunk of the board.
Really, right now we need mods to enforce quest threads being on /qst/ because some people still refuse to move out of /tg/.
>>512172
>If I post in a thread and go to bed, then the thread should be gone when I wake up.
What exactly do you consider a fast board? /a/ doesn't even meet this standard maybe half the time I post.
>>512485
when they announced qst, there were 5 running
peak traffic was 20ish and could only happen on the weekends
at least you're not as bad as those guys that say 35-45 threads.
did you account for false positives like request, question, and things like "What kind of quests could I send a lv 3 characters on?"
too many boards will be our downfall
we can already see /int/ in ruins because of /his/. Moot even refused /his/ many times. rip 4chan
>>512499
What's the difference? Trash is trash.
Wake me up when he does something that actually affects the decent boards.
questing is too niche to support a board of its own
the 48 hour autosage guarantees it will be a ghost town
>>512490
/tv/ is fast. Threads get archived after just a few hours.
I don't understand why making new boards triggers some people enough to come to this board make multiple threads complaining about it.
>>512268
this can apply to so many boards with so many subjects though
no one kpop threads anywhere
neither /pol/ not /x/ wants the conspiradoom shit everywhere
>>512648
no one wants*
>>512644
board migration kills discussion of the subject and its communities
>>512648
Well they can try to fix that problem on their own time.
We've fixed ours, or so it seems right now. Other boards having issues doesn't mean we shouldn't try to solve ours.

>>512172
>Superfast boards are the worst, followed by slow boards. The best boards are medium-fast. If I post in a thread and go to bed, then the thread should be gone when I wake up. That's my preferred speed.
You don't want to have the thread be up when you return in 2 weeks?
>>512499
I dislike the idea of /his/ because /lit/ had so many philosophy discussions already, I saw no reason for it.
in the meantime 8ch is doing fine
>>512656
All the evidence to the contrary would seem to disprove that. /pol/ is not dead after /news/ and /his/ were created. /g/ is not dead after /biz/ was created.
>>512701
don't be disingenuous
the new boards end up being ghost towns
sp Raw game threads used have 10+
asp raw game threads do about 5
>>512658
im just saying that its also understandable that a lot of people dont understand why some things that are so minor take preference over things that are complained about much more often and seem to be more of a problem
there are issues that arent even board specific that need to be addressed so it shouldnt surprise you that pople who arent a part of your home board are puzzled by something so seemingly random and niche-y is taking precendence over other complaints
>>512707
slow boards =/= bad boards
Let's just make a request system where, if five people can samefag enough times to appear to be 30 people, they get a new board all to themselves.
Who wants to help me samefag until we get a Magical Girl board. We could move the PPG threads from /co/ there, and the Senran Kagura threads from /v/.
>>512916
quests require active participation
dead boards are not conducive for participation
>>512268
Quest threads were 8% of /tg/'s threads.
>>512751
8
%
You didn't 'need this badly' as badly as I need Warhammer threads off of /tg/. You are really only angry because people liked a thing that you didn't like on a board you frequent, and this triggered you.
4chan is rapidly becoming a safespace, and you're one of the people cheering its demise.
>>512933
participation can be a lot more gradual than you seem to think
>>512254
>implying there isn't an endless cycle if tribalism right now
>implying there hasn't always been an endless cycle of tribalism
"Crossboarder" has been used as an insult since /a/ and /b/ split.
>>512937
It really can't. Not on a board like 4chan.
You don't seem the understand the problem here: Quests were fine and active on /tg/ because there was an overlap in userbases. If GMs wanted to write quests in a ghosttown, there are other places they can do that.
This 'fuck off if you like this thing I don't like' mentality needs to fucking stop
>>512474
Okay, then let's measure archive postings.
https://desustorage.org/qa/search/text/quest%20%2Ftg%2F/type/op/
https://desustorage.org/qa/search/text/quests%20%2Ftg%2F/type/op/
Average level of activity from that silent majority in complaining about quests on /qa/: Once every month.
That silent majority must have forgotten how to type or read.
>>512939
>this "fuck off if you like this thing I don't like" needs to stop
It has been here since the very beginning of 4chan and it will be here until the end.
Ignoring it only causes problems. See doubles and pone for examples.
>>512945
Acting like a faggot over it causes problems, too
See: Gamergate, Barneyfag, Chanology.
There is a medium, /tg/ had hit that medium since the level of quest threads had bottomed out since 2013.
>>512004
i go on /gd/ and /i/ all the time. also fuck you
Also to you idiots complaining that you can't speak out against quests lest the shadowy specter of moot will ban you: Maybe if you weren't going into quest threads and acting like massive fucking faggots, you wouldn't get banned.
Like you're doing
Right now.
I'm pretty much noticing that after a series of bannings from brigading faggots who think they're on Reddit, the anti-quest sentiment on /qa/ has basically stopped. I'm guessing the prime faggot and his dumb little buddies were given a vacation that they were too stupid to know how to get around. Which has brought several threads to a standstill as that 'silent majority' who was arguing for segregating quest threads has suddenly disappeared.
>>512956

I've heard this before.

>Bitcoin threads were fine and active on /g/ because there was an overlap in userbases. If OPs wanted to talk about the market in a ghosttown, there are other places they can do that.
>>512949
The idea that you can just force 4chan users to get along by not splitting boards or ignoring requests is laughable at best. It has resulted in some of the worst spam and shitposting in 4chan history (accel, pone, doubles, allowing shōnen on /a/, etc).
Autism and stop living what I don't like will always win. You cannot force people to get along.
That being said, /quest/ should have happened in fucking 2010 or 2011 when there really were 50 quests on /tg/ at a time. It's stupid to make it now, but moot was adamant that anime harem quests and ERP rape quests should remain on /tg/. Now he's gone and Hiro is trying to not be moot by listening to the community. Unfortunately it really is just people who despise quests pushing for this and that group is small. Not 12 people small, but too small to make /quest/ for.
>>512939
I counterclaim that the "if you don't like this thing I like eat shit" mentality by questfags is just as bad.
>>512969
>The idea that you can just force 4chan users to get along by not splitting boards or ignoring requests is laughable at best. It has resulted in some of the worst spam and shitposting in 4chan history (accel, pone, doubles, allowing shōnen on /a/, etc).
Except, as you noticed, only one of those things resulted in the creation of a new board. And most people agree that board is one of the biggest mistake of neo-4chan.
A separate Shounen board, for instance, would have been one of the dumbest ideas ever. It didn't happen, because it was a dumb idea.
A separate board for doubles would have been another equally stupid idea, it didn't happen, because it was a stupid idea.
You know who was living together just fine before this change happened? /tg/. They had learned to live together. The only ones complaining were again:
>>512942
Five, maybe ten faggots who only brought it up once every new moon when they wanted their issue to feel important again.
The only people who felt that this change needed to happen at all was a small group of whiners who were just angry that they weren't getting their way. Just like the shounen complainers, just like accelspammer, just like dubs. All of it was from people whose goal was to complain until they got their way, and 4chan didn't give in because you don't negotiate with terrorists and faggots.
>That being said, /quest/ should have happened in fucking 2010 or 2011 when there really were 50 quests on /tg/ at a time.
Maybe if it had happened then, you would have a point, but it didn't. It's too late to go back and change it now.
When quests were 20 or 30% of /tg/ archives, you may have had the beginnings of a very active board that would have thrived.
You can't make a board out of 8% of /tg/. /tg/ isn't even in the top five most active boards anymore.
>>512962
Yes, and making a new board for both of those things was and still is a terrible idea.
>>512974
>I counterclaim that the "if you don't like this thing I like eat shit" mentality by questfags is just as bad.
How is that a bad mentality though? Should we start gassing Sonyfags on /v/ because you don't like them? Should everything you don't like be banned from your board?
The problem here is that if you don't like it, you are free to ignore it. The issue here is that they're not even forcing you to like it, they're saying that it's their right to have it, and your personal tastes don't change that in the least.
People who are complaining about Hiro's board additions are retards.
Moot was the KING of adding stupid, unnecessary boards the site never needed while neglecting the most sought after boards. Are you telling me that boards like /po/, /3/ and /n/ are necessary when they gain no more than 10 posts a month? Or cancer like /mlp/ and /r9k/ that are absolute cesspool's that bring nothing of value to the site? At least /qst/ is a board that will encourage creativity and OC.
>>512969
>>512974
>The idea that you can just force 4chan users to get along by not splitting boards or ignoring requests is laughable at best.
That is how 4chan has always worked you stupid faggot. There have NEVER been more than two or three groups of people who got along on a specific board.
What you're asking for is to shuttle everyone off into their own safe spaces, like yourself, so you don't have to listen to those other people who have all those wrong opinions you hate so much.
The very fact you're suggesting that you MUST have your own safe space away from those people you hate so much even-though-you-are-free-to-ignore-them really brings into question what community you originally hail from.
>>512992
Sorry, where the fuck does Moot play into this?
Your best argument is that it's okay because at least it's not moot adding stupid, unnecessary boards?
Here's a genius idea: How about we don't make more stupid, unnecessary boards. We're kind of stuck with the ones we have, but we can just quit making them. We don't need a /qst/ or a /film/, especially when there's a /tg/ and a /tv/.
This would be like caving to /co/'s retarded suggestion that we make a /capesht/ board.

Clealry it isn't about how obfuscated the threads make the board, but how those threads act in general.
Back to your new containment cage.

Except, they weren't. Because they were only allowed on /tg/ and have been for upwards of two years now.

Doubles got its own board (s4s and trash)
Pone got its own board
For many years (and still today) shōnen has been posted on /v/
r9k misogyny got its own board
Racism got its own board
Etc
Segregation is needed. Even if it doesn't get its own board, the advent of post filters allows people to semi-segregate things they don't like. You cannot force people to get along just by forcing them to be on the same board. It doesn't do anything but cause shitslinging and filtering. No one has benefitted from more enlightened conversation now that shōnen is not instabanned or brigaded on /a/. The people who like it post about it and everyone else hides it.
I don't know why you think forcing a bunch of "autistic" angry people to "coexist" is a good idea. It's like putting radical Muslims in the same country as Zionist/radical Jews. It won't work.
Yes, /tg/ was fine in 2016. This board didn't need to be created (although I do appreciate it as recompense for 2010-2013). It should have been made a long time ago if it was going to be made and 2016 /tg/ could benefit far more from a general subboard instead (there are AT LEAST 30 generals on /tg/ at all times. Sometimes 50+).
>>513019
>Doubles got its own board (s4s and trash)
Those are not doubles boards.
>For many years (and still today) shōnen has been posted on /v/
/v/ is not a shounen board. Nor has it ever been.
>r9k misogyny got its own board
r9k had nothing to do with misogyny you damn newfag. It started as an experiment that turned into sadfrogs and meme men.
>Racism got its own board
Racism never not had its own board. It's called 4chan.
Again, really calling into question what community you really come from.
>Segregation is needed
>I don't know why you think forcing a bunch of "autistic" angry people to "coexist" is a good idea. It's like putting radical Muslims in the same country as Zionist/radical Jews. It won't work.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXQkXXBqj_U
This video is going to get a lot of use if you genuinely think that 4chan has or ever will co-exist as you see fit. You can go into any consolewars thread on /v/ or cartoon thread on /co/ and see that it doesn't work. That's how 4chan has been and always will be.
>>513023
s4s is a doubles and general shitposting board. Whether you want to argue that it doesn't count because it's not called /doubles/ or /shitposting/ is irrelevant.
/v/ has been the home of shōnen for a very long time because it was simply impossible to post on /a/. The discussions on /a/ about shōnen now are actually shittier than the ones that you would have on /v/.
/r9k/ was banned for misogyny you faggot. It may not have started out like that, but that's what it is.
/pol/ and /new/ are and were hives for rampant racism that was unacceptable anywhere else but /b/. Shit like fun nigger facts or SAT scores by race were never allowed anywhere else and even caused a ton of derision on /b/. Saying nigger isn't what I'm talking about and you know it.
>what community you come from
Why don't you just come right out and call me Reddit instead of this passive aggressiveness?
>safe space video
You don't seem to understand that the extensive filtering done by just about everyone creates safe spaces already. It doesn't matter if the already highly filtered topic is excised and put somewhere else so the majority of a board doesn't have to deal with it.
>>513027
>s4s is a doubles and general shitposting board. Whether you want to argue that it doesn't count because it's not called /doubles/ or /shitposting/ is irrelevant.
It's not a doubles board, is the thing.
>/v/ has been the home of shōnen for a very long time because it was simply impossible to post on /a/. The discussions on /a/ about shōnen now are actually shittier than the ones that you would have on /v/.
It's against the rules, any shounen thread on /v/ is deleted. It does not belong there and you're stretching to even pretend that it does.
>/r9k/ was banned for misogyny you faggot.
R9K was removed because the robot experiment failed. People just started posting trash with their posts to get around it, so no new material was created. Greentext misogyny exists there to this day. I don't know how you could say r9k existed for that when it really existed as a new web-experiment that was a poor idea to begin with
>/pol/ and /new/ are and were hives for rampant racism that was unacceptable anywhere else but /b/.
holy shit you really are new. Do you think 'nigger' is a bannable word outside of those places? Have you even set foot in a 4chan board before?
>Why don't you just come right out and call me Reddit instead of this passive aggressiveness?
Because I don't know that. It's very possible that you're from some 10-20 person board like /po/ and never had to read a major 4chan board.
>You don't seem to understand that the extensive filtering done by just about everyone creates safe spaces already.
So let's create more, because you're too 'triggered' to be around these people.
Do you not see the problem here? You're wanting to apply your own feelings on possibly not having a safe chat environment to EVERYONE. whether they want it or not.
This runs completely counter to the concept of 4chan and anonymity. If that's what you want, you're better off on another forum. It's NEVER been as you're describing.
Either ways, off to bed.
>>513027
>You don't seem to understand that the extensive filtering done by just about everyone creates safe spaces already. It doesn't matter if the already highly filtered topic is excised and put somewhere else so the majority of a board doesn't have to deal with it.
not him, but yes it fucking does matter because you just displaced people who were using that board for perfectly legitimate reasons because you're too brittle to share the same board as them. Literally such a soppy cunt that the idea that someone is even on the board with you makes you bothered.
Here's an idea: If you're to the point where your cunt is bleeding like a stuck pig, why don't YOU leave the board? Clearly those people are just fine, maybe the problem is with you if you're to the point where you have to filter everyone just because you don't want to look at them.
Ever consider that, you sissy?
I can't even imagine what it's like being such a weak sod that you see text on the internet, on the same board, and immediately go into triggered rage because it crept past your filter.
I'm just imagining you just flailing your arms around, squealing on your mom's carpet yelling "wtf y din my filter work, why aren't the bad men gone?!" lol.
>>513013
And they're fucking insufferable.
>>513035
It is a doubles board. I seriously cannot understand why you are denying this.
It's deleted and against the rules now. DBZ threads for example were ONLY allowed on /v/ and never deleted for a very long time.
/r9k/ was removed because it triggered overlord moot with its misogyny. That's literally the only reason. Same with /new/ and /pol/ with racism.
No fucktard. I'm talking about somewhere where stormweenies can post DOJ statistics about how niggers are 59x more likely to commit crime and return to prison and how whited and Asians even from poor families are universally smarter than the smartest nigger and how race traitors will hang on the day of the rope and OF COURSE how the Jews are responsible for literally all the world's evil from time immemorial.
I'm simply saying that creating new boards is almost no different than filtering things you don't like. If the displaced population is too small then the board dies and nothing happens, or the board just becomes small/slow and people can post their shit without getting shitposted while people who didn't like it don't have to see it anymore.
>>513047

This is true, confirmed by someone who browsed the board at the time.
moot couldn't handle the misogyny and whining so deleted the whole board. "A gangbang of whining" he called it.
I also remember a thread about going to McDonalds for a date, that thread really pissed moot off for some reason.
>>513053
>stormweenies
This is the sort of faggot you've been arguing with, folks.
>>513058
It's not my personal filter. If many people from a board are filtering or trying to filter things then creating a new board for that specific thing is not an issue.
>>513072

Just because I don't believe in 1488 white pride worldwide doesn't mean that I think 4chan should become tumblr.

>>512004
Well, I like to visit /ic/ and /gd/ sometimes.
The only board I imagine nobody goes to is the /news/ board. Also, I actually would like seeing /i/ fuse with /ic/ into a single /ic/ board.
>>512004
They have different rules from the rest of the boards. I don't mean behavioral, I mean like additional file types or increased sizes. As much as I dislike the idea of /qst/, it seems like that's how they've set up the board.
It's only the shit like /asp/ that gets on my nerves.
