People from outside 4chan see in Hiro the opportunity to change 4chan.
These are people, probably young and thickheaded, who identify strongly with the local cultures of other large web communities.
These are people obsessed with distorting 4chan in their own image. They see some kind of moral or aesthetic victory in this, probably due to 4chan's popularity.
These are the people who cry the loudest about "bogeyman" when you call them on their aberrant mannerisms.
These are also the people who cry loudest for you to "deal with it" whenever the fruits of their labor are called into question. Like there's a divine process going on and you're an annoyance for interrupting it.
This process has been going on for months now; anyone who frequents /qa/ can testify to that. So you know these people are dedicated.
This is what I have concluded.

you are right. A large number of redditors and fb normies have infested 4chan. Go to any of the niche boards(boards that have threads up for months)and look at the latest posts and threads. Most of them are about how stupid their hobby is, and how the board should be closed.
And, recently, take a look at how sharply the annoyance against reddit users has lowered. Redditors are infesting in drones, and are being completely accepted.
Tumblrites I am not that worried about, because most of them end up triggered in /pol/, or /lgbt/, /adv/ or /co/, and although they might hold sharply contrasting viewpoints, they understand how internet communities work better than the redditors do.
boards that have changed completely:
/b/: Now is just porn, nobody paid heed to ajeep, people are being given sexual advice instead of tits or gtfo, no more suicide posts, scat and gore threads are now infested by comments like : oooh that is so yucky! You are all sick faggots! I saw 20 trigger replies on a gore thread where a man slipped between an escalator. like seriously. That is kiddie stuff.
/lit/ : Believe it or not, it has. It is now just endless circlejerking about racial roles, and about how bad infinite jest is, and other things.
/pol/ : pol is its own victim. Every normie thinks pol is the new edgy board, and takes it all in without any hesitation. pol uses extremely high levels of sarcasm in its posts. That is how most poltards turned into stormfags, and most are now turning into christians. They will start supporing barney in a few months.
/r9k/ : Posters on r9k seem less depressed and less murderous. I guess that speaks for itself.
/g/ : Endless phone threads, memes, hardly anyone comments in the mechanical keyboard egenral, almost no one seems to know language, sqt threads are cringeworthy, and an increased number of consolewar and /v/ faggots seem to be infesting it. These are not /v/ faggots, these are all from /r/pcmasterrace and /r/gaming.
>>320987
/qa/ and /his/ are the places where redditors are converging, and the endless strawpolls about killing a board are not something I would've seen circa 2010.
I mean, seriously, look at >>320900
Most redditors are like this. They offer no arguments snd just resort to endless memes which they do not understand.
Thsi place stinks of reddit now.
Hello cc, my old friend.
>>320991
/pol/ actually does use high levels of sarcasm, because after a certain point, arguing coherently becomes a chore for most people there. Hitler worship and Nazi shit did not start on its own.
Being with Hitler was a meme at first for people who wanted to drive away people who posted threads about free speech and free markets. It was later accepted a /pol/ ideology.
Donald Trump was a meme in the start, and everyone was rooting for Rand. Now, a good thread about Rand gets 404d in an hour, and even Trump threads are scarce. Most threads are paid barnet shills from /r/ sandersforpresident where raids are planned on certain /pol/ threads periodically.
Also, I was there when /q/ was up. There were people rooting for board deletion, sure, but most of them were looking for their rules to be enforced, and not for the board to be wiped out. Most had coherent arguments. It is now just endless circlejerking and endless strawpolls for deleting /pol/.
>>320993
You are bad at perceiving sarcasm and you are a bad liar.
>>320997
Not lying, and am not bad at identifying sarcasm.
>>321007
I guarantee that I'm right on this.

Shut up and poo in the loo.

Riiiiiggghhhhht. A totally unrelated person just happened to coincidentally post a thread on /pol/ with your exact post from an Indian IP. Go poo in the loo.
>>321016
What argument? That you do poo in the loo? Sorry, but all evidence points to the contrary.
>>321020

It's a pathetic attempt and so obvious what they are doing, trying to suck admin dicks to get more boards and peddle their boring pedestrian bullshit everywhere.
I don't think they realise that there will be nobody for them to post with if this continues the truth always stays the same and these faggots are just plain wrong.
What a load of bullshit.
You moron natives are simply using the ginned up threat of outsiders to push your agenda.
>>321078

Why do you guys want to shit up the Internet with thought policing so much?
Is the truth too uncomfortable?

Why don't you guys stay at reddit instead of trying desperately to shit up 4chan?
Is our very existence threatening to you? How pathetic.
>>321086
>Is our very existence threatening to you?
Is reddit's existence threatening to you?
>>321088
The only thing that reddit could threaten is people's intelligence.
>>321121
heh
Frankly I hope that this site becomes more weebish now that this place is owned by a Japanese dude. There's nothing that triggers redditors more than anime, and the baka desu senpai wordfilters are a good start.
man, people like OP really make me laugh. Are you ok with seeing conspiracies everywhere? Do you really think everywhere you're writing about is happening, that there's a gloal reddit invasion?
Newfags have gotten dumber, but redditfags mostly stick to their place apart from r/4chan dumbfucks, afaik. There's been no change real change: /b/ is STILL a newfag gateway (and it always was), your opinion of /pol/ is mistaken, and the reason you see less
>tfw no gf
/r9k/ posts is because ROBOT9000 has been reenabled and the same rehashed frogposts get you banned now. The only thing that makes me sad is how /g/ has become, but that isn't recent and dates back to 2013.
Honestly, is it not possible to just shitpost, have fun, and be seen as epic hackers anymore? Conspiracy theories belong on 8gag, not 4chan.
>>321619
It's pretty obvious what's going on dude
>>320878
that's quite a pseudo-intellectual way to say REDDIT GO BACK TO REDDIT REDDIT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR EVERYTHING I DON'T LIKE REDDIT REDDIT REDDIT REDDIT tbqh senpai

This. So much this.
Rile up and piss off the anti-japan people. Make them leave.
They are nothing of worth, only shitpost and ruin boards they touch.
They have even been infecting /f/ in the past couple years.
>>321760
I'm just tryna be tactful man, aight?
>>320987
>browsing all those shit boards
I agree, but wouldn't say that they're necessarily from outside 4chan. There are just certain people here who have an almost authoritarian-like obsession with 4chan being the way they want.

Wow, I honestly wasn't expecting this.
>>320987
>normies
Will you kids ever understand that by using "normie" instead of normalfag you're outright proclaiming your newfaggotry to everyone?
fag fag nigger fag
We can use these words here you piece of shit
>>322973
/r9k/ has a compulsive need to turn any word childish, see tendies, roasties etc.
>>320987
>pol uses extremely high levels of sarcasm in its posts.
But that's wrong if you've ever been here for /n/ and /new/ it's part of predictable evolution of /pol/. We're just seeing uncharted territory and how they spread out and when newfags who see it as a way to dump their opinions they'd be shunned from in public.

Wow these faggots need to be glassed
>>320987
Lots of people still hate Reddit here though. We can't be like 8Gag who seemingly likes Reddit with a passion
>>320987
The problem is that, as it was stated in here, Reddit's GamerGate board are the ones who are invading this place. The fact that we now have solid proof it's them says we need to filter the word Reddit for good.
>>320878
Funny, the same can be said of moot in 2003-5 period.
If moot never done exactly what YOU said people are trying to do with Hiroyuki now, YOU would never even be allowed on this website in the first place.
Undo moots shitty decisions Hiro. <3
Ban all these newfaggot anonymous discussion kiddies. None of us wanted it. moot literally had to force it on us.
>>323685
Go back to GamerGazi faggot. You've been exposed
>>323691
The fuck are you even on about?
I despise Reddit completely.
Meta-moderation and self-moderation do not work.
Reddit is shit. Slashdot is shit.
But I also hate you faggots just as much.
You faggots and your anonymous discussion, AKA shitposting with no punishment.
There is a very good chance that you have been on Reddit way more than I ever have, because you fags LOOOOVE them so much. Get a fucking room, you /v/cunts.
>>323703
First off dipshit I despise Reddit as much as you do. They are purposely infiltrating 4chan in order to turn this place into their own clubhouse, most of them are from their GamerGate subreddit GamerGazi. And yes the self moderation is no longer plausible now, we do need stricter mods big time. Hell I am now all for a split for /v/ at this point in time
>>323685
>anonymous discussion is bad
That's literally the whole point of 4chan
Does anyone remember when /r9k/ was original content that couldn't be reposted
Then it turned into a whiny shitfest of omegaorbiters complaining about not being to put their cocks in anything
Then moot deleted it and everyone threw a bitch fit because they couldn't complain anymore and it was great
And now that's /r9k/ has permanently become and it's been complete shit ever
Fucking newfags
I'm done with this shit. There's no discussion on 4chan anymore. No great content. No sense of community. It's just senseless arguing from young motherfuckers who come to 4chan for the EP1C MEANNESS GUISE and shitpost on ANYTHING because they got the wrong idea that this is what 4chan is about
Moot jumped ship because he seen this shit coming and knew it can't be stopped. You fuckers ruin everything that is good and I sincerely hope you all kill yourselves while I watch this site burn
Fuck you.
>>324471
Why is it that I'm only seeibg posts like this ("meanness"?) after Hiro arrives?
You're not the oldfag you say you are. GTFO
>>324471
remember when /r9k/ was a fun place to go post in civ threads and play with blox?
>>323674
It's not just them. GamerGhazi idiots brandish their 4chan credentials all the time (while simultaneously saying they "grew up."
Fuck, there's even a thread there treating the word filters like a victory and posters here in /qa/ have admitted to coming from there whenever that stupid GG situation comes up.
>>320987
>hardly anyone comments in the mechanical keyboard egenral
Maybe because there is only so much regular posters can actually talk about in these threads? It's a fucking keyboard, there's not much to it. Besides, anybody with a life doesn't give a shit about these things anyway.
>>320878
I hope behind all the newfaggotry that Hiro shows when he tried to post here for the first time that he's still wise enough not to listen to every random asshole that comes here asking for /pol/ to be deleted and for more strict rules.
Hiro seems to be getting the hang of running the site (with help from the mods) and I hope he doesnt ever go full retard with premium accounts and other gay shit.
>>324867
If he put the kibosh on the filters, then I'd respect him.
I don't think it's going to happen, though.
>>325077
They won't last forever.
>>325119
I reckon Hiro, for a while at least, will only make changes that have a large /qa/ consensus behind them. Reckless as moot was, he had a "concept" of 4chan that I don't think Hiro has.
And as long as the demographics of that consensus are being prodded by outside forces, this kind of thing is only going to get worse.
>>325077
The filters are good.
>>320878
>no evidence: the post
>>324867
Hiro has actually been doing it right, which is mostly ignoring /qa/ and discussing the internal politics of boards on the boards themselves.
>>321170
>baka desu senpai filters are a good start
You do realize that using those the way they're filtered is the way normalfags use them ironically? If anything the word filters are making fun of wapanese, not normalfags.
>i hope it becomes more weebish because japanese reddit founder hiroyuki is running it
>he adds a western cartoon porn boards, a history board for the ironic redditors of /pol/ and is now adding a fanfiction board
Anyone who believes 4chan is going back to it's roots is delusional. And no, the way we used desu in 2005 is not the way people are using it now.
>>323876
it's not tho
>>320878
8gag already spammed here enough to get /his/. I really do not want a new /v/ formed by 8gags ideas.
>>323006
That happened around New Years, some dude most likely was forcing tendies/normies/REEEEEE and it has turned /r9k/ into a shell of itself. The board was a lot better without that cancer.
Reddit has been steadily increasing in /r9k/ because in January, /r/4chan's front page was ONLY /r9k/ content. What happened basically was that the redditors would come into /r9k/, make their shitpost, screencap it and upload it into /r/4chan for karma.
