Why is the discussion of doujins and hentai allowed on /a/ again? I know that some mod, years ago, said it's okay. But am I the only one that feels like this hurts boards like /h/, /e/ and /d/, boards that were created for japanese pornography but are really slow compared to /a/? What's some good, logical reason to have porn on /a/ but not on the porn boards?
>What's some good, logical reason to have porn on /a/ but not on the porn boards?
Because tradition and /a/nons bullied the mods whenever they tried to change anything.
If you want "good, logical", you won't find it.

/a/ users take perverse pride in using /a/ for discussion that belongs in other boards.
/a/ regularly exchanges sexual favors with the moderators. It's not a very well hidden secret.
It's ok when /a/ does it. Other boards are shit when they have off-topic threads.

discussion of hentai is literally banned on /h/ last time I checked ,
only image and link dumping is allowed,
on /a/ you can actually have a discussion about it, thats the difference, thats why its more active.

These say nothing about disallowing discussion.
>>579283
it doesn't officially say that , but according to a lot of people in the sadpanda threads the mods there enforce it as being "offttopic" or "spam"
in any case even if it wasn't there still wouldn't be much freedom to go on a tangent about things.

You just can't discuss on /h/. Even if you wanted to. Most of the anons on /h/ are there to wank and not to discuss drawn porn. You do that on /a/.

You're no better than the "delete /r9k/" fags.
>>579304
Then tell me what I can do to change it.
>>579306
Standard procedure is to replace the posts you don't like with posts you do like, and if the mods don't like it keep making meta threads until big mod shows up.
It's OK when /a/ does it.
>>579309
You can't replace posts.
>>579320
Why didn't you say that from the beginning?
>>579324
It would have worked better if that thread got pruned.
What gives? Were a bunch of threads deleted recently, leaving a hole for posts to grow?
>>579304
not him but ive tried and have long given up on r9k
>everyday make a thread thats not about women, sex or relationships
>try in vain to keep it alive
>watch it die
>>579330
You need to bring friends otherwise it won't work.
>>579332
it wont work period
the only way to bring r9k back to the way it was is to delete it, wait a year for all the feeltards and normalfags to disperse to other sites and then bring it back as a heavily moderated work safe board.
>>579338
Conveniently that stance exempts you from any obligation to try. Too bad the stance is wrong.
>>579198
Because you can. It's always been that way and the other boards used to be that way. Things like /h/ /e/ and /d/ were also made for DUMPING not discussion. In-fact you can get banned for discussion on the boards.
Content doesn't go on a single board and can go on multiple. This isn't a traditional forum or something like leddit. Just because something has a board it doesn't mean it can't go elsewhere and the nsfw rule is about stopping porn dumping, that's it. Rulefags begone.
