/vp/ needs to be mon
>>338567
/tin/foil
/pol/ and /x/ agree on this, /k/ also
>>338567
/cg/ - community games to contain risk and quests
/intg/ - /int/ generals
/cel/ - to contain celebrity shit
/kr/ - to get korean threads off of /mu/ and /a/
sfw /b/ - self explanatory
These are all the boards needed to make 4chan great again. Also delist [s4s], add IDs to /b/, and make /mlp/ nsfw just to shut those factions of people up.
How about none, and also stop crying about having to see things you don't personally like on "your" boards.
>-Fan Fiction board
Shit idea

So basically s4s lite

>-Best of 4chan Board (Selection of threads by 4chan staff, For viewing only)
Why not just go to a stupid archive or a shitty "funny 4chan screencaps" site?
>>338848
Also retro /a/ would probably cause a big dent on /m/, considering they talk a lot about pre-2000 anime. And of course Retro /a/ would just be a huge "Anime was so much better back then" circlejerk
>>338567
Fuck off we don't need more boards
>>338844
>>338852
This
In fact we have too many boards and it dilutes discussion. Which ones should we delete?
>>338865
Didn't you get the fucking memo?
Hiro is slowly turning 4chan into something like 2ch and 2ch and has a fuck-load of boards.
>>338866
Delicious cake.
>>338867
The issue is that 2ch has more users than 4chan and can deal with it. 4chan is not only less popular, it is losing users faster than it is gaining them.
>>338583
/thread
>>338567
>SFW random
Why not just make [s4s] SFW? The board is mostly SFW so there shouldn't be too many issues
>>338842
>but give it another name
/consp/iracy ?
how about /me/
it's a board where only i can post in it and you can all fuck off.
>>338898
You know I actually think it would be funny to give someone their own board just to see what they would do with it
First off
>retro /a/
You mean /m/?
Second off,
do you want Hiro making another board after the fucking trainwreck that was /his/?
>>338902
>do you want Hiro making another board after the fucking trainwreck that was /his/?
He needs to make about 10 new containment boards that have been needed for years.
Most voted boards in the last general polls:
>/cc/ - Casual Conversation
A blue SFW random board, and keep /b/ "Random" NSFW.
>/sa/ - Sauce
For porn and other NSFW requests, and make /r/ "Request" a blue SFW board.
>/ht/ - Hot Torrents
For porn and other "red" torrents, and keep /t/ "Torrents" for "blue" torrents.
>/hi/ - History
To discuss history without the political connotations of /pol/.
>/hs/ - Humanities & Social Sciences
For philosophy, religion, linguistics, psychology and sociology.
>/lpol/ - Lefty Pol
Because /pol/ is a joke, a /leftypol/ is much needed.
>/im/ - Self-Improvement & Education
Discussion of life hacks, careers and education.
>/it/ - Digital
Programming, Web Dev, Sysadmin, etc.
>/pro/ - Audio & Visual Production
For music production, cinematography, game development and cross collaboration.
>/www/ - Youtube and Internet
Discussion of youtube, websites and what you discover on the Internet.
>/cel/ - Celebrities
For celebs, e-celebs, actresses, youtubers, bloggers, pop science personalities, etc.
>/new/ - News
To discuss current events without the political connotations of /pol/.
>/cg/ - Community Games, and /tg/ Traditional Games
For play-by-post, quests, CYOA, and roll threads. Finally chess, cards and other games will see the light on /tg/.
>/sf/ - Science Fiction
A counterpart to /x/ but for science fiction, house of space opera, cyberpunk, steampunk, body horror, etc.
>/ra/ - Retro Anime & Manga
For discussion of anime from last century (or, more broadly, non-seasonal anime).
>/ts/ - Tokusatsu & Superheroes
For superheroes and kaiju related media.
>/tv/ - Television, and /fi/ - Films
Similar to the /co/-/ca/ split, but for /tv/.
>/con/ - Conspiracy Theories
Happenings, NWO, Illuminati, Satan cults, etc.
>/ig/ - International Generals
To contain the generals.
>>338910
>>/cc/ - Casual Conversation
This would be the final nail in the coffin for /b/.
>>/sa/ - Sauce
Great idea
>>/ht/ - Hot Torrents
I don't use /t/ but this is probably a good idea
>/hi/ - History
Already done
>/hs/ - Humanities & Social Sciences
Should be kept with history otherwise it will be too slow
>/lpol/ - Lefty Pol
As a lefty who uses /pol/ I hate this idea. It would just turn /pol/ into a nazi circlejerk and both boards would be devoid of much actual discussion and just raid each other constantly
>/im/ - Self-Improvement & Education
I don't really see this as important but might be okay
>/it/ - Digital
Isn't this covered by /g/ already?
>/pro/ - Audio & Visual Production
Could be good
>/www/ - Youtube and Internet
Could be good but more likely just be cancer
>/cel/ - Celebrities
Very much needed for containment
>/new/ - News
Useful but likely to only really be used when something is happening.
>/cg/ - Community Games, and /tg/ Traditional Games
Sure
>/sf/ - Science Fiction
Not really needed
>/ra/ - Retro Anime & Manga
Would kill /a/ (and /m/)
>/ts/ - Tokusatsu & Superheroes
Not really needed
>/tv/ - Television, and /fi/ - Films
Maybe
>/con/ - Conspiracy Theories
Not needed, just use /x/ (or /pol/)
>/ig/ - International Generals
Seems like a weird idea for a board but might be needed
>>338609
no that's wrong
>>338848
>So basically s4s lite
No, not exactly. [s4s] is quite its own beast.
>>338906
And then what, have them all be fucking ruined in a matter of days because he thought it would be a good idea to put liberals in charge of moderating fucking 4chan discussion?
Seriously, getting banned for calling Egyptians "dark skinned" is not my idea of a successful board
>>338910
>/cc/ - Casual Conversation
Already said this one was decent but we really should cut one of the boards with no topic
>/sa/ - Sauce
Name is meh but idea is good
>/ht/ - Hot Torrents
No strong opinion, I'm inclined to say no though
>/hi/ - History

No

>hey you know that big circlejerk we have? Let's give the only people who offer resistance their own circlejerk!

No

Assuming this is just for /int/ generals, no. If for sitewide generals( barring /v/) yes
>>338943
>Assuming this is just for /int/ generals, no. If for sitewide generals( barring /v/) yes
Tell me more. What you mean with sitewide?
>>338931
>/con/ - Conspiracy Theories
>Not needed, just use /x/ (or /pol/)
You have no idea what you are talking about. Both boards hate tinfoil conspiracies and continually refer those posters back to one another in a neverending cycle and they leak into other boards like /k/ and /r9k/.
>>338946
Well, a lot of people have a bone to pick with generals. I think it would be beneficial to ban them sitewide and add a new board, think /b/ but SFW and only generals.
This was general fags can have their circlejerks without taking up board space and annoying people
>>338567
/dq/- delete /qa/ before it's too late
>>338943
>we really should cut one of the boards with no topic
Why?
>>338949
...that might actually be a good idea.
>>338944
>No, like /r9k/.
Huh?
>>338959
>I'm hesitant to lump /s4s/ in with them though because they have a very eccentric board uh "culture"
Right, ok. I was wondering if you were grouping them together, and I would vote to remove either [r9k] or /trash/ if it came to such. Either are practically worthless, at least with /b/ around. [s4s] is valuable, though.
Remove all talks of DC and Marvel by making a /cape/shit board and make an exception of rule 15 on /co/.
We need more unimportant boards removed and maybe add boards to quell the shitposting and flame wars to the more popular boards. Also all of your ideas for boards are stupid and pointless, OP.
/eco/ - European Comics and Cartoons
/toku/ - Scifi shows
/usa/ - Murrica
/ara/ - MILFs and Older Women
>>338991
This. Marvel and DC have no relation to cartoons anymore. And the cartoons that do exist for it are shit, pic related. And about the pony thing. It's stupid to ban a cartoon on a cartoon board because of a bad fanbase. Besides there's /mlp/ and /trash/ to filter out the unwanted pony porn talk. I do not even like ponies but even I can see how stupid rule 15 is.
>>338567
You should be shot for war crimes
>>339001
If rule 15 goes then /mlp/ should go too.
We absolutely need to split /g/ in to /g/ - consumer technology and /λ/ - Programming and Computer Science.
/g/ has become 90% shilling for various apple and microsoft products and generals about buying this and that but any thread that has anything to do with the finer workings of any technology are either too slow to stay on the board or get filled with shitposts about the shitposter's favorite/least favorite products. At least if we had a cs board the shitposting would actually be related to those topics pertaining to computer science.
>>339001
Then it should be called /mdc/ - Marvel and DC because calling it /cape/ would imply all cape comics and I don't want Valiant comics to be removed from /co/ because some fucks hate live action Marvel and DC on /co/.
>>338609
But it actually isn't though Not even a pedo.
We need more boards removed, not added.
Here's what I want removed:
anime wallpapers
cute male
alternative sports
everything on the creative category of 4chan with the exception of /ck/, /ic/, /mu/, and /wsg/
/lgbt/
/r9k/
/s4s/
adult cartoons
high resolution
I think there's still a few I'm missing. But yes they are useless and benefit no one.
>>339017
This is good too. I wish people actually read these ideas though. /qa/ is mostly a 4chan vent board with the maybe slight hope that some smart soul might listen.
>>339020
You're trashing too much senpai.
>>339014
Well we do have /trash/ now but I can imagine those bronies might be upset that their board is gone.
>>339029
Yeah we should just leave it alone then, it doesn't make sense to let them keep the containment board after setting them free
>>338910
>/cc/ - Casual Conversation
Might be cool
>/sa/ - Sauce
Seems like a good idea
>/ht/ - Hot Torrents
Also seems like a good idea
>/hi/ - History

>/im/ - Self-Improvement & Education
/diy/ /fit/ /adv/
>/it/ - Digital
Pls gibe <3
>/pro/ - Audio & Visual Production
Seems interesting but it'll probably be the slowest board.
>/www/ - Youtube and Internet
We need this for containment purposes
>/cel/ - Celebrities
Yes
>/new/ - News
Sounds like a better idea than leftypol
>/cg/ - Community Games, and /tg/ Traditional Games
There's room enough on /tg/
>/sf/ - Science Fiction
I like this idea
>/ra/ - Retro Anime & Manga
Might work in theory. Won't work in practice
>/ts/ - Tokusatsu & Superheroes
/m/ is already slow enough unless this also includes western capes in which case i'm all for it.
>/tv/ - Television, and /fi/ - Films
Unnecessary.
>/con/ - Conspiracy Theories
/pol/ exists already
>/ig/ - International Generals
Unnecessary
>>339027
That's a good thing though. 4chan started off by not having too many boards to begin with. And it's not like 4chan is popular like Reddit or other mainstream websites.
>>339020
>boards to remove
>/po/
>no /soc/
>>339020
>cute male
NO! FUCK YOU!
>>339033
It's not good when you're trashing some of the more decent boards for the sake of trashing boards.
>>339033
>it's not like 4chan is popular like Reddit or other mainstream websites.
This is literally one of the most popular western websites there is.
>>339037
Haha I actually agree with this one though.
>>339027
Even with all of that removed, there would still be 48 official boards left. Oh yeah, I want /soc/ removed too. So that would be 47 left. That's still a big number.
>>339020
YOU WANT REMOVE BOARD?! FUCK YOU!! YOU GET MORE INSTEAD!!
>>339042
How about fuck you instead. Why should we remove like 20% of the active boards? Just to make you happy? That's the dumbest shit.
>>339045
The only active board I can think of is /r9k/ and maybe /fa/ but everyone hates those losers. They help no one in 4chan.
>>339046
>The only active board I can think of is /r9k/ and maybe /fa/
Then you're stupid as shit
>but everyone hates those losers.
No they don't
>They help no one in 4chan.
When were we ever supposed to help eachother?!
>>339020
Remove /cgl/
>>339050
>defending /r9k/
They are a bunch of whiny unlikable virgins who blame the world for their problems and scream "woe is me" everywhere. They are only good for maybe a laugh to see who pathetic nerds can truly be.
>>339056
*how
>>339050
>When were we ever supposed to help eachother?!
Never, but they are not supposed to make us look worse either. How they haven't all killed themselves is beyond me.
>>339056
And who is that different from 90% of the rest of the boards? In fact deleting r9k will just cause the plague to spread.
>>339061
>but they are not supposed to make us look worse either
4chan is not your secret club.
>>339062
I'm optimistic and hope that it would be the final straw for them to end their life.
>>339065
Didn't work last time
>>339065
Are you new here or something?
>>339063
If I wanted to make it my secret club I would want a positive image. I just do not to look worse than we already are.
>>339068
Fuck off, friend. If you don't like the people who use this website then don't come here.
>>339071
r9k was deleted once and they just shat up the other boards. Deleting boards never ever works.
>>339071
>I just randomly chill on /do/ or /v/
/l/ is literally the only board we still need
>>339071
>/co/ or /v/
>>339078
pedophilia is banned in many countries and encouraging the mentally ill probably isn't a good idea.
>>339072
Nah, I would just enjoy a board enjoyed by unlikable people be deleted just to see the fallout of it's posters. But as this anon >>339073 explains I guess they won't kill themselves. How sad. But you really are deluded to think that you people are liked. How's the "beta uprising" by the way? Did you make a big fool of yourselves yet?
>>339080
>encouraging the mentally ill probably isn't a good idea.
Pretty sure that ship sailed once lgbt was added
>>339083
big diff between alt sexualities and child fucking.
>>339088
Big difference between jacking off to drawings and being so schizophrenic you think you're the opposite sex senpai
>>339082
>But you really are deluded to think that you people are liked. How's the "beta uprising" by the way? Did you make a big fool of yourselves yet?
Don't use /r9k/. Haven't been since the board was first added. You're literally retarded.
>>339078
Pedophilia is disgusting and wrong and I'm glad the whole first world condemns you people. Hebephilia is cool though.
>>339088
Child fucking is an alt sexuality. That's like saying "There's a big difference between art and crayon scribbles" Like yeah one is probably looked down upon but they're in the same category.
This thread has become shit. Why is it even still up?
>>339090
no diff between a child and a depiction of a child unfort family.
>>339094
There's a difference between guys who like loli and actual pedos though. And even if there wasn't, it's a motherfucking drawing, like ink on paper mah nigga. Get a grip on reality.
>>339099
Then we should probably ban all violent video games then...
>>339102
It's still illegal in the United States.

This is literally not true on two different levels that I don't feel obligated to argue because
A) If I even have to argue it then it's really clear that you've already decided your stance on the issue regardless to any logical information that could be brought up in the argument. Your position is fortified by feelings and not facts and, thus can only be moved by feelings, making any debate completely pointless.
B) I'm actually not a pedophile so I'm not gonna waste my time arguing for them when they can do it themselves, but holy shit this whole feels debate style gets on my fucking nerves. You've literally countered your point with your own point and will still act as if you have a leg to stand on in the argument.
>>338910

He wasn't defending [r9k] per se but that it's 'stupid as shit' to think that the only 'active' boards he listed are [r9k] and /fa/. That's ludicrous ignorance.

Anyone who thinks doing things like splitting up /a/ is a good idea is retarded and doesn't have a opinion worth listening to

ATTENTION HIRO.
Please add
/rtv/ = Retro movies and Tv shows
Discussions of movies and TV shows pre 1990's.
>>339151
Get a load of this fucking tard.
>>339109
>>/www/ - Youtube and Internet
>>/cel/ - Celebrities
I really wish people would stop suggesting these. They are both horrible ideas and will only contribute to shitting the place up. The former being even more stupid, because we all know that it'll just become some place redditors treat it like its /r/reddit. /cel/ is a bad idea because they don't need a containment board and can just be jammed into generals or outright banned

>>implying a new board will kill the others
The only people who want /ar/, are people who have never used /a/. /a/ isn't /v/ and doesn't need a few dozens splits just to stay on topic shitposter-kun
>>339180
Crawl back to your containment board.
>>339181
The people who want it are the "anti-moe" crowd who are triggered by the lack of retro anime on /a/
>>339183
Evrn better, please go on.
>>339181
>The only people who want /ar/, are people who have never used /a/
Can't use /a/ because it doesn't let people post what they want. Mods erase anything non seasonal, get that.
>>339186
> Mods erase anything non seasonal, get that.
Congrats! You've proved you haven't even once opened up /a/ before. Shitpost harder
>>339186
>mods erase anything non seasonal
This is just a fucking blatant lie
>>339186
>Mods erase anything non seasonal
Haha no. People just don't care to discuss a ten year old anime for 50000th time (and when they try, the threads always end offtopic because of the lack of new material).
>>339109
>>339112
How about /x/ for "Conspiracies, Mystery & Horror" and /rel/ for "Religion & Supernatural"?
>>339186
Why not just go through the archives?

This. There can only be one person who has different views than me. The views of me and this anon are the views of all of 4chan.

Rather than fanfic, I'd just want a board for writing. /lit/ isn't a great place to talk about it.
>>339342
I agree with this, but I don't know if it's possible to ask Google to do that.
/fur/ so /trash/ could be purged. That's it.
>>339361
That's stupid
Wildcard
Every month it has a new topic. If it attracts enough posters, it's made into a board, otherwise the board just gets wiped at the end of the month.
>>338991
It'd be better to just split /co/ into two boards rather than just have a board for capeshit.
>make an exception of rule 15 on /co/
Holy fucking shit no. There's a reason /mlp/ exists.
>>339030
>It doesn't make sense to leave a popular board after removing a dumb rule.

The dumb rule is the only reason the board exist in the first place though. You don't get to have your cake and eat it too faggot
>>338567
-Fan Fiction board
No. Fanfiction.net exists for a reason. A creative writing board, maybe, but that'd be difficult to to the fact threads are deleted after a period of time.
-Advertising/shilling board
NO NO NO FUCK THAT BUY ADS IF YOU WANT TO ADVERTISE
-SFW random
Make [s4s] a blue board. Done. Most of its memes are SFW anyway. No great loss.
-Narcotics board
>>>420chan
-Retro /tv/
-Retro /a/
You can talk about retro shows on both of those boards. If you don't get many replies, that means nobody wants to talk about it. But sometimes threads are successful enough.
-Trial board without captcha
aka shitposting central
-Best of 4chan Board (Selection of threads by 4chan staff, For viewing only)
This is the only good idea.
But seriously, why is there no /cel/ yet?
It would house threads about both hollywood celebrities as well as youtube celebrities. It would help /tv/, /v/ and /vg/ all at once.
I don't get why you don't want to at least give it a chance.
>>338567
the biggest question is if any of those board can sustain an userbase.
People vouched for a /sup/ - superheroes board by it became apparent that event with all the capeshit movies it wouldn't have enough users
so far only new board we can think of that can sustain a userbase if /fg/ and the fan fiction board (mainly for writefags)
>>339584
No fuck that too, I don't even use /co/ but you have whole damn board to yourself, you don't need to play on /do/
>>338840
korean generals have been designated to trash tho
cel is... necessary, but an awful thing.
/int/ would hate losing their generals. they actually love them (the absolute madmen)
/cg/ is a necessity by now.
a sfw /b/ would be a very interesting thing, but it would also suffer from sanitation. I suggest a pornless yet nsfw random board, where you can still post tits if you are making OC
None.
None at all.

Okay.
>>339641
Fear of change in full force.
>>339642
More like fear of people who don't use the board trying to change it, on top of not being articulate enough to explain themselves beyond meaningless buzzword as if retro weebshit is somehow not weebshit.
>>339645
I want to talk about retro anime, but I can't because /a/ is flooded with shit threads.
Explain why it's a bad idea, otherwise your argument is invalid.

>I can't
Actually you can, it doesn't get as much discussion as airing shows for obvious reasons but there are threads that discuss older titles all the time, the fact you think that you can't is even more proof that you dont even browse the board or barely browse the board.
It's a bad idea because it's another board created to solve a non-issue because idiots like you can't be asked to fucking lurk or make a half decent thread then blame the board because you are incompetent. All making a retro board will achieve is circlejerking and killing off all the non airing show discussion on /a/. Please stop trying to change boards for your own personal gain when it's against their best interest
>>339569
>This is the only good idea.
literally r/4chan
>>339662
>there are threads that discuss older titles all the time
Pic related is /a/s current catalog. Four threads discussiing "retro" anime, all have < 20 posts.
>>339685
Go make a thread if you want to talk about something faggot. Oh wait you don't because you don't even browse the board and by the way when I say all the time I dont mean 24/7 you literal fuck
>>339690
Easy tiger. Every time I make a thread it gets panned because the majority of /a/ users are interested in airing shows and not older titles. I don't browse /a/ because it's full of threads I'm not interesting in, that's why I feel a retro anime board would be great, as it will emphasize retro anime discussions, of which I, and many others would appreciate. It wouldn't effect the board in any way because retro anime isn't a large body, which means it will benefit those who enjoy both airing and retro because they will have a large variety of both in their respective boards.
>>339699
>I don't browse /a/
>>339702
Did you read the post?
If otherwise I'm ignoring you.
>>339704
Yes I read your post and it's an asinine split. You've already admitted to not browsing /a/ so your assessment on whether or not there are retro threads is invalid. If you spent more time you'd probably notice them
>>339708
>You've already admitted to not browsing /a/ so your assessment on whether or not there are retro threads is invalid
I did browse if for awhile but I stopped because it no longer interested me.
I think you were just looking at the words in my post and not reading them, because you haven't actually disproved my points.
>>339718
Your point is you don't like /a/ and want to divide it so you can have your own circlejerk without having to look at things you don't like and ignoring the people who like to talk about older shows on /a/. Kek off retard
>>339725
But I explained why it wouldn't negatively effect /a/ and would even benefit those who want to talk about both aired and retro anime.
Here's the quote >>339699
>It wouldn't effect the board in any way because retro anime isn't a large body, which means it will benefit those who enjoy both airing and retro because they will have a large variety of both in their respective boards.

>>339965
Fuck off retard.
>>339699
>It wouldn't effect the board in any way because retro anime isn't a large body
No, you fucking brain dead retard, it would. You even admitted to not browsing the board so how the fuck would you know? Also, a good majority of /a/ watches shittons of retro anime, contrary to popular belief
If you want to discuss retro anime, make a fucking thread. Of course, whatever thread you make probably won't replies, because its probably something stupid and general like "hey, what did /a/ think of this?". There is threads for retro anime that hit bump limit all the time. If you want to discuss it, don't make are tard thread, and try to be creative with it, to actually make people want to open it and discuss.
/a/ is starting to fall into the generals route enough, splitting it and making a retro board will the the straw on the camels back and kill the fucking thinking, making it just generals, circlejerking and more than likely, /v/2.0. A /ra/ would be even worse, as unlike /vg/, anime has actually a lot less normally to talk about, so it'll end up 10x worse then /vg/
The only people who want /ra/ are people who don't browse the board and people who don't want to put the effort into making a actual thread that makes people want to discuss it. It serves no purpose and will only make /a/ a actual shit place
>>340022
/a/ is a circlejerk, we definitely need /ra/ despite your insults and your oppression.
>>340547
You make it sound as if /ra/ wouldn't be an even greater circlejerk
>>340547
And you want to split it into 2 even bigger circlejerks and lose any form of posting quality it has?
Do not bully the loli!
>>340022
I'm back from yesterday to continue my argument because this is entertainment at this point.
>You even admitted to not browsing the board so how the fuck would you know?
See >>339739
>Also, a good majority of /a/ watches shittons of retro anime, contrary to popular belief
No because the lack there of was the reason I stopped visiting /a/.

>Every time I make a thread it gets panned because the majority of /a/ users are interested in airing shows and not older titles.
>If you want to discuss it, don't make are tard thread, and try to be creative with it, to actually make people want to open it and discuss.
You're assuming I haven't because this makes your argument look better. You don't know if I have or have not made a creative and interesting board, and even if I had it would be subject to your opinion.
>making it just generals, circlejerking and more than likely, /v/2.0
Using evidence provided here (pic) >>339685, and the fact that I've been there for the purpose of discussing retro anime and left due to lack there of, It already is what you have described as /a/ without four or five out of 180 threads. So no, it wouldn't change or divulge.
We need /l/, all other board suggestions by this this point are redundant. Especially all the shit ideas in the OP
>>341849

>thanks to idiots like this we had a porn board before a safe for work /b/
>>341850

>>341902

Basically weeb /b/. What some people wanted /jp/ to be.
>/cel/
Celebrities and e-celebrities - /tv/ waifuism, /v/ streaming faggotry, Youtube celebrities, RLM, Totalbiscuit, etc.
>/rp/
Roleplaying, quest threads and board games.
>/kr/
Everything Korea related, from manhwa to kpop to Korean esports stars.
Split /v/ into two boards. Two possible ways, either split it into a Japanese board and a Western board, or split it into a games board (talk about video game titles) and a gaming board (talk about more meta issues, from piracy and DRM to Steam and Origin to consoles, companies, publishers and developers).
>>341934
How about
>/x/ - Conspiracies, Mysteries & Horror
Rename /x/ to "/x/ - Conspiracies, Mysteries & Horror" for conspiracies, mysteries, horror and creepypasta?
>>341985
I like this idea.
Everybody who said 'retro /a/ would kill /a/' is a completely retard who has never been to /a/ and doesn't know we have a board called /vr/ which did not kill /v/. To begin with /v/ was MUCH more willing to talk about old vidya that /a/ is to talk about anything that's not from current season.
>>338910
/new/ would be cool and /con/ is especially needed to get the tinfoil hat retards off /pol/
>>342023

>>339361

+1.
And it's important. Furry and NSFW pony content are both like a hot potato game.
Allow adult/anthro ponies back into /mlp/ like it was before the scruffening
allow /fur/ to hold all the furry content, you'll certainly get furry artists getting ad spaces to advertise their art.
>???
>Profit!
>>342023
No, the people asking for /ra/ are the ones who don't use /a/, shitposter-kun
Boardsplitting is retarded anyway and should only be done in extreme cases when its actually needed to ensure people people stay on topic. Something /a/ doesn't need, because its always on topic, if anything, its too on topic most of the time
>>342041
>/fur/
>making furries think they are welcomed here so they can just leak out everywhere
>>342036
>>342049
What you don't realize is that people want /ra/ because making, say, a City Hunter or Bubblegum Crisis thread on /a/ will net you 2-3 replies before it'll die. /a/ is not interested in discussing old anime. The argument about how all anime needs to stay on /a/ is retarded as well. /m/ exists, /u/ exists.
>>342054
>/ra/
Requests/anime?
>>342054
> /a/ is not interested in discussing old anime
Because the majority of them have already been discussed to hell and back. Read the archives. /ra/ will be nothing but a circlejerk and generals.
Plus, heres your problem
>say, a City Hunter or Bubblegum Crisis thread on /a/ will net you 2-3 replies before it'll die
You are trying to talk about one topic, rather than a broad one. Saying old anime don't get replies is bullshit, because I've seen various ones in the past weeks hit bump limit. The difference? They were fucking broad, and weren't a single topic, like how you should be making them.
People only want a /ra/ so they can wank older anime, and because they can't be bothered to put the effort into making a thread their-selves that attracts people to discuss
> /m/ exists, /u/ exists.
Different reasons for existence. And fucking /u/ anime are still allowed to be discussed on /a/ and the majority of retro anime is already taken up by /m/
Otaku/Japan Generals
A weeb equivalent to /vg/ to force all of the literally shit generals off /a/ /jp/ out of sight

/film/ please
/hea/lth board. medical advice, coaching, intelligent discussion, what drugs or vax to avoid and stuffs like, how to cure a benign stuff, or avoid catching the big bad stuff.
also /fur/.
>>342036
I don't see any need for /ar/. Old anime threads pop up every now and then, but discussing old anime over and over is kind of pointless when everyone knows what has happened and there's no surprises left in store unlike watching a new season airing
Unless there's god tier waifus to fight about
>>342239
>Old anime threads pop up every now and then
And gets shitposted.
>discussing old anime over and over is kind of pointless when everyone knows what has happened
Except not everyone knows and maybe we want to hear what others are there.
Another anon put it better. We go to /a/ and it doesn't discuss what we want, then we leave /a/.
>>342247
If you can't find any people in /a/ that wants to discuss what you want to discuss, then that's probably because you have shit taste in anime

A board for all niche fetishes so they can be moved off /aco/
Anime retro is a retarded idea
What we really need is anime general
I thought /m/ pretty much functioned as retro /a/?
>>343198
Why, almost all threads on /a/ are generals. This shit is how we like it. We don't need a board separate for non general threads, if they're not shit they can still survive on /a/ just fine
>>343198
No we don't. We just need to remind people they don't need a thread for a series up 24/7 and the people in the madoka, JoJo and the like banned
Ideas:
