Western individualism is why anonymous message boards will never work.
Westerners love 'social capital' which is why you see sites like Reddit have in-depth discussions. When there is no value tied to your name (due to the lack of a name), westerners no longer feel compelled to be serious about discussion.
Compare 4chan to sites like 2ch. When shitposting on 2ch occurs, it is quickly stifled or ignored. when shitposting occurs on 4chan, it is usually goaded on by fellow users and the problem of shitposting is exacerbated.
It's time for Hiro to implement usernames and logins. Anonymity does not work in a culture where individualism is prized over the group.

You wanna eat shit boy? Get out of this site boy.

Is this some amateur attempt at irony? You are posting on an anonymous message board that works. Clearly you know this or you wouldn't be here.
Gomenasai /qa/, my name is Ken-Sama.
I'm a 27 year old American Otaku. I draw Anime and Manga on my tablet, post on 2ch (much better than 4chan) and spend my days perfecting my art and playing superior Japanese games. (Disgaea, Final Fantasy, God Hand)
I train with my Katana every day, this superior weapon can cut clean through steel because it is folded over a thousand times, and is vastly superior to any other weapon on earth. I earned my sword license two years ago, and I have been getting better every day.
I speak Japanese fluently, both Kanji and the Osaka dialect, and I write fluently as well. I know everything about Japanese history and their bushido code, which I follow 100%
When I get my Japanese visa, I am moving to Tokyo to attend a prestigious High School to learn more about their magnificent culture. I hope I can become an animator for Studio Ghibli or a game designer for Square Enix!
I own several kimonos, which I wear around town. I want to get used to wearing them before I move to Japan, so I can fit in easier. I bow to my elders and seniors and speak Japanese as often as I can, but rarely does anyone manage to respond.
Wish me luck in Japan!

What's up with all the newfags on /qa/? Some days ago an anon got mad at me for calling anime "chinese cartoons" and now this. Damn.

They're trolling you. I love to do that, I respond completely seriously to a sarcastic post and call the other person an idiot - it ALWAYS gets multiple responses, some of them quite long.

That has got to be the shittiest, most transparent attempt at a humble brag I have ever seen.

It's too long to be shitposting, so it's just you being plain retarded.
