Should IDs be on every board?
>>
IDs are fucking stupid anyways and should be removed site wide.
>>
>>532273
Yes. Well, probably not on /b/ or /trash/ or /s4s/

>>532296
No.
>>
>>532273
No, they are like forced 'per thread' tripcodes

>>532296
Agreed.

>>532476
There isn't a good reason to keep IDs when people on phones change IP addresses every time they post.
>>
>>532476
No, IDs should most definitely be on /b/ to cut down on retarded samefags. /b/ is one of the most active boards on the site and has "no rules", so people use it for self-promotion.

ids only let posters with dynamic ips "prove" they're not samefagging when they really are.

We know about that. This is to stop the people who are too dumb to change their IP. Make it harder for stupid people to be stupid. We obviously wouldn't take different IDs as proof, just like how anytime someone screenshots (you)s to prove they're not samefagging I tell them why they're full of shit, even though sometimes they might be telling the truth. We don't let people believe they can prove anything.

>>532489
youd be surprised with the amount of people that barely knows how to change their ip or change it quickly
it would prevent a fair amount people from doing it
>>
>>532489
If we used IDs like 2ch they'd be less useless, since they also work based on web browser, IP range, etc.
>>
>>532504
Frankly I don't understand why this site hasn't been made more like 2ch. It just seems better in basically every way.
>>
>>532273
No.

BUT.

I think randomly during the month they should enable IDs on all boards for a day so we can see the faggots who were samefagging before the IDs turn on and laugh at them, and then go back to normal until next month.
>>
>>532512
Unfortunately, IDs are not retroactive.
>>
>>532506
We're getting more boards like 2ch. It's a start.
