Explain to me why sound support for webm is still not a thing when all other sites have it?
>>512921
muh jumpscares
>>512921
DMCA requests are tiresome
A better question is why VP9 webms are still not allowed when VP8 is a pile of shit and webms of longer than 10s need to be 240x240 greyscale because of 3MB limit.
>>512922
Yet people don't post jumpscares on /wsg/, where sound is allowed. Hmm.

You know DMCA requests are just as easy to get with pictures, right?
See: Fuckku and nuDoom
>>512921
because we all know anons arent responsible enough for it on big boards like /tv/
>>512921
Gif and WS Gif has sound webms.
>>512926
Because you get banned for it. Even for rickrolling.
>>513243
Exactly. So there's no reason to not have sound support on the rest of the site.
>>513269
You still need to provide a reason why we -should- have sound on all boards. "Being just like the other sites" is not a reason, let alone a good one. We don't need 4chan becoming a Youtube mirror, it's bad enough that /wsg/ is 80% reposts of reposts of goddamn reposts.
>>513286
Because soundless webms are boring. Hearing is one of the five senses and to be deprived of it is wasteful.
>>513295
This is a website dude are you high
>>513295
Then go fuck off to Youtube with its rich media experiences and stop wasting everyone's time here.
>>513295
You want the cum from the cuckold webms you watch, to splash on your tongue too so you can taste it?
>>512924
Then why do we have sound webms on /wsg/ if the problem is copyrights?
Do you think that copyrighted material is only a problem if it's on all boards?
>>513310
/wsg/ is so small, and the source material unrelated, so nobody cares.
>>512926
it's a obscure board
>when all other sites have it?
4chan wants to be different

>muh Yootoob
Fuck off with this bullshit. Just because 4chan has sound webms doesn't mean we will become Youtube. This is a baseless claim that proves nothing or introduces no negative result other than "i dun want muh chinese image board beein Yootoob!1!!". If you didn't want the board to have this in the first place, then you shouldn't have fucking webms.
Boards like /v/ and /a/ need sound webms for their threads. Saving videos is a lot more convenient and better for threads then Youtube links. Its better to post OSTs. You no longer have to go onto Youtube to view videos. What else do you want?

>its a small board
So I can just get away with dumping illegal shit on their?
Because you aren't lurking more.

>We decided to disallow WebM files with sound for a few reasons, but mainly because it’s our intention to provide the site with better animated images, and not true video support. To that end, we only accept WebM files with one video stream and no audio streams, that are shorter than 120 seconds long, no larger than 2048x2048 pixels, and less than 3 MB in size.
WebMs with audio streams are allowed on /wsg/ and /gif/ nonetheless. I believe the file size limit on those boards is 4 MB instead.
>"users" arguing for gimping site features
Put on your capcodes, cowards.

I browse /v/ and /a/, and I hardly see people use webms as better gifs. Considering all the filename threads and webm threads people are leaning towards video more than gif.
And besides, reactions pics with video would be revolutionary.

Moots opinions don't matter anymore.
Hiro did more for 4chan that moot has in his last few years

>it doesn't matter what mot said, he only created 4chan and ran it for 12 years
Were you dropped on your head as a child

The guy who isn't an owner anymore still has control over the website
