What would happen if we banned all mobile posters for one week?
It would somewhat increase content quality of 4chan for a little bit. Then, after the mobile phone posting ban period is over, things would go back to the way it was before.

I can spoof my browser's user agent string any time I want to

What about banning 3G/4G IPs?

Doesn't stop people from using the WiFi at McDonald's or anywhere, really. WiFi is all over the place.

What if we banned 3G/4G, banned mobile user agents, and unfixed the mobile browsing problem in futaba?

That's the problem. You can't ban it if it's spoofed because you can't tell the difference on the receiving end. Also, I never had trouble browsing vanilla 4chan and other Futaba-based imageboards on mobile, because they are have next to no scripts that a mobile browser can't handle.
Theoretically, the only way you can do it is by implementing a captcha or other verification system that a mobile browser simply can't render.

>lets ban everyone!
>>538163
We should take everyone... and PUSH THEM SOMEWHERE ELSE.

Mobile posters tend to shitpost a lot more than people with static IPs.

That's bullshit and you know it, moron.
A proxy is way cheaper than a smartphone + data plan.
You're one dumb fucker
>>538206
>most proxies
There are still lot of proxies that work.
People are just ignorant, and that's a problem with the user base of the site
>>538155
it's good to see at least one person on /g/ isn't a total retard when it comes to technology. unfortunately, you're in the minority which is why mobile posters are such a problem.
I'd find another way for my phone to post. How else will I be able to posr a shitty opinion on my desktop and then reaffirm it as "someone else" on my phone?
>>538163
Let's be honest, we'd all cheer.

4chan's revenue would crater so they wouldnt do it
