/a/ - Infinite moot

Never watched it, I only know from pictures that it's some harem with girls in the future or something...

Coward reverted the title so the Elevens wouldn't laugh at him any more than they already are.

>>52516370
Liar, you love it. it's one of your favorite animes.

ya when he said that i was like WAT?

>animes

>animes
god damn it moot

I sure do love /a/ - Infinite Stratos

>>52516276

It feels kinda plain like this. Silly or not, it's better when we have something nonstandard as the board name.

>>52516276

>>52516391
Why would they laugh? Infinite Stratos is the pinnacle of Japanese television animation

Infinite Stratos was in fact one of the most popular anime of the season when it aired.

That "Ichika no ecchi" by Charlotte was posted thousands of times on /a/

>>52516683
agreed, dunno what would be appropriate now

>>52516781
/a/ - Infinite Stratos

I kept flopping between feeling bad for moot for blundering so badly, and hating him for being such a faggot

/a/ - Hipst/a/rs

/a/ - Long live /jp/

>>52516683
He probably only changed it because it was going to be on stream.

Nice hair moot

Germany is best.

>>52516808
>all my money

had to snag it

Well good job /a/, you looked good.
Can't say the same for /jp/ and /v/.

>>52516801
I know, he's trying so hard, but then 20-50 MODS. How can he consider that a good idea for such a popular site?

i love moot, he's one of my favorite faggots

>>52516742
/a/ pretty much went batshit as soon as Charlotte showed up, although I'd say madoka was more popular

not like moot browses /a/ or anything though, so he wouldn't have known

Way to embarrass us moot.

>>52516839

Anyone got sauce on the first song that played?

So soothing...

R.I.P. moot

Moot looks like such a damn girl. Is he wearing blush?

>FRIENDS

Fuck I missed it. Anything remarkable happened?

>>52516880
I wont lie. that was the highlight of that fiasco

>>52516906
/a/ loves infinite stratos. It is out favorite anime.

>>52516887
Google "Kokuriko."

>>52516906
hiroyuki trolling, /a/ /v/ and /jp/ got some screentime, and that was about it. everything else was about social networking, canv.as whoring, and other bullshit.

also Hiroyuki is a macfag.
/v/ has no video games.

lol moot still doing the same spiel everywhere they will let him/whichever shitty con will host him and his shota sex harem.

will he ever succeed at life?

>>52516920
Well, IS is popular here.

>>52516808
a winnar

>>52516906
1. we need more mods
2. hipstar
3. long live /jp/

Did moot change the board's name because he wanted it to look presentable?

I hope they do something like this again; it was fun.

did anybody find where is the sad song from?

>>52516906
Just moot browsing 4chan on livestream and seeing threads like "MOOT YOU FUCKING SUCK" and "LOOK AT THE MOST RETARDED FAGGOT IN HISTORY -livestream link-"

On livestream.

>>52516906
apparently moot didn't know 'moot' was a word until after he'd taken it as his handle

>>52516918
He already said /v/ doesn't talk about videogames. regardless, 26k viewers, they were barely even Japanese.

>IS is our favorite anime

>>52516964
Ah, he was trying so hard to scroll past them so quickly.

Moot knows just as much about online anonymity as any other opinionated cunt on the internet. Just because you rip off some Japanese coding doesn't make you an expert

>>52516980
Looked like most of the comments were Japanese, actually.

>>52516276
HIPST/a/R

MOOT: Master troll

>>52516938

Hiroyuki is definitely not a MACfag.

He was sharing an inside joke with James, an ex-Microsoft employee, that moot didn't get.

moot was boring him and Hiroyuki started joking around with /a/ by calling moot a "Hipstar".

>>52517009
Depends whether you were on Japanese or US stream.

So...

Is moot trying to pass of as Spike Spiegel?

What the fuck is that haircut.

>>52516895
I wonder how big his dick is

Anyone got a video of talk session?

I wish Hiroyuki was our overlord. At least he has 300 fucking mods.

My highlight of the show

>>52516980
I wouldn't be so quick to say that. It was 8pm there, compared to 7am in North America...

>>52517020
That really should have been obvious from the fact that Hiroyuki's laptop isn't a goddamn Mac.

>>52517020
>James
>ex-Microsoft

No wonder the guy's a genius.

Where is the piano version of this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaW5QSY_PAU

That they played?

inb4 locked sticky

Is the recording up anywhere?

Fun fact: There is a site called animes

>>52517045

That and Sakurafish.jpg where truly the best ones.

>>52517067
>implying moot would want to display his faggotry even more

They should have spent that hour giving him a haircut. What a waste of fucking time.

>>52517079
Yeah. But anyone captured my post? Because I dont...

>>52517093
You didn't have anything else to do anything.

Talking about insider jokes on OSes.

>>52517044
They have like a million boards, though.

>>52517045
his fucking face!

>>52517045
>clean up board names to look presentable
>get a bucketful of hate threads broadcasted on livestream

>>52517124
Whatever. I bet he hires mods that actually DO something.

>>52517093
They had a comment monitor the entire time but moot never once looked and said "oh they want me to say onii-chan"

>>52517139

>2011
>wanting strict moderation

It's fine the way it is now.

>mfw I planned story thread for today, but without Infinite Str/a/tos it no longer has meaning

>>52517038
I actually have a picture of him sitting down, naked, erect, and freshly orgasmed. Somewhere anyways, ain't gonna go fishing

>>52517139
Then go to a normal retarded anime fan forums

>>52517141
Hiroyuki was the one paying attention to us. He didnt give a fuck about the interview.

>>52517119
I could've been sleeping.

I regret my choice completely.

>>52517044
moot said 20-50 Mods

That just means he's either not sure or he's bluffing, whereas Hiroyuki actually said 300 Mods without a pause.

It's obvious who's lying. Doesn't change the fact moot and co. is going to Roppongi Hills though, lucky bastards.

Dude I saw that picture somewhere in a thread yesterday.

I'm surprised that there was enough knowledge of western humor and stereo types to make the hipstar call

>>52516906
Meh.

It was fun.

>>52517169
That was honestly a bit enlightening, I only slept for 2 hrs just for this.

moot still didn't say onii-chan though, It seems like moot was insecure throughout the whole interview.

>>52517155
I'm guessing, based off the fact it was dependant on Infinite Str/a/tos, it wouldn't have been worth posting here.

Anyways, unless we get a sudden influx of high-grade newfriends, everyone would understand it.

THAT FUCKER. THAT STICKY YESTERDAY WAS JUST TO MAKE US LOOK GOOD FOR THE ELEVENS. MOTHERFUCKER.

>>52517223
moot had the why.jpg face the entire time, though i'd like to think it's because he's shy.

>>52517260
I don't understand why he agreed to interview if he had nothing to say.

>>52517246
Translator was like "Oh wow! They're already talking about us, look! Scroll back to that!"

>>52517271
They reverted it back to Anime & Manga and /v/ - Video Games.

It's obvious they want to look good.

>>52517202

Mix of Steins;Gate, TTGL and Antispiral moot. I already raged and deleted folder with it anyway. Bad luck, I will be faster with next story.

>>52517246
I don't really get why moot is so insecure.
There are literally thousands of ways to make a good joke out of that.

Also, I'm deeply disappointed that he apparently can't speak a word Japanese.
What the fuck have you been doing over the least 8 years?

Did moot really say we were the best board...? I must've missed it.

>>52517223
oh yeah, what was with all the people telling moot to say onii-chan?

>>52517304
And he did it pretty badly. Canv.as was horrifying from what I saw.

>>52517297
Fuck you normalfag.

Oh, fuck off.

>>52517311
It hit its mark. It's obvious Hiroyuki liked the idea. Really.Liked.The.Idea.

>>52517324
Meme-spouting faggots.

PUDDI PUDDI PUDDI GIGA PUDDI

>>52517323
Yes. And after that he said we love IS.

>>52517295
>NO GUYS I KNOW I WAS A DICK IN THE PAST BUT I REALLY LIKE ANIME
>INFINITE STRATOS IS COOL RITE GUISE?

what good is spamming canv.as it's still in beta and invite only. it also sucks.

lol'd at moot defending facebook connect by saying you can post anonymously. sure is anon.

>>52517213
You forgot
>why not leave your thoughts in /b/?

>>52517320
>I'm deeply disappointed that he apparently can't speak a word Japanese.
Yea, me too. I expected him to at least know half of what the other guy knew in english.

>>52517365
I had a feeling he didn't really like Infinite Stratos.

>>52517370
The best thing was "you can create an anonymous account"

If Hiroyuki was actually a legit MACfag, he wouldn't be using his SAMSUNG NOTEBOOK during the stream, now, would we?

>>52517392
dat trollin

>>52517320
He could have also done his research. They actually had to explain the www shit to him.

>>52517344
The Japanese are used to having to painstakingly upload content they've slaved over, so the idea of something like Canv.as that's like a goddamn drivethrough oekaki orgy is pretty interesting to them.
Memes are EARNED in Japan, see.

I only took a quick look at Canvas but it seems to consist of everything I hate, and why most boards are now unbrowsable

>>52517392
Read the thread. It was an inside joke.

regardless, Hiroyuki and James are actually quite a duo. It's almost like they're the type of persons who team up to fight crime.

>>52517320
You forget that moot is one of us, if it wasn't for 4chan he would be just another basement dweller. I mean did you see his freinds?

delivering reaction image

>>52517422
Oh god, that mod. He looks like you could just about strangle him with scotch tape.

>>52516986
yep IS is a good mango about transsexuals

>>52517282

Oh moto

>>52517365
Moot was just trolling.

>>52517422
Both of his friends have been to Niconicodouga since 2007, James even remarked that John could actually speak Japanese.

moot couldn't even get past registration, hell, I got through registration when all the fonts were bricks. moot really looked like a hipster compared to his 2 bros.

>>52517422
>You forget that moot is one of us

>>52517320
No fucking clue, he could just sit there like a boss, not giving a fuck and explain his shit. I mean if you know the basics of the pre 2008 /b/ you basically know how the reaction is on /a/ if shit like this broadcast happen.

It was rather obvious, and Steve wasnt tolling or joking, I wouldnt call it like that. It was rather geniue interest in the subject, but because of its nature, it was rather embarrasing and awkward.

And Moot had a hard time not to fucking laugh at some parts. Hiroyuki was very bro and calm. He tried to make the whole situation more entertaining without "Moot is an fag." like it was posted here.

In fact, I call it great success for all parties, no matter if moot really is a fag or not.

>>52516276
oh it is back to normal already.

I think moot can speak a bit of moon, but because he is such a fucking beta, insecure faggot he didn't want try and fail, so he stuck to english

where to watch the video?

>>52517490
Maybe, it seemed like he understood James a bit when he was asking the last question in Japanese.

Is there a link to this that someone recorded? I missed it

Neither, MD Geist is a colossal newfag. Both of them have been around since the beginning, apparently. Plus, Geist is a girl.

>>52517778
Modcat is no longer a mod, as of April. He was pressured into resigning and regrets doing so.

>>52517778

Fuck you. You are the worst kind of person.

I fucking missed it. Was there JamesCam on moot? Did you get him to say onii-chan?

>>52517828

>regrets it

You've been in contact with him?

>>52517801
Hey, I would have thought you'd hang out with Hiroyuki and moot a bit before coming back here to post

MD geist is female
Modcat quit from fear of being fired

Why?

>>52517866
His final posts had a tinge of regret.

>>52517819
But thats exactly what modcat himself said.

so moot is off to get drugged and raped by nigerians in roppongi? I am in tokyo next week. hope he is still there.

>>52517924
ill be in tokyo from aug. 10th - 17th. wanna meet up and fuck?

>>52517630
this please, somebody did capture the whole thing right?

>>52517911
Nope. Did you even read it?

>>52517904
Go premium on the 1st, cancel your subscription on the 31st.
=> You can watch it for 525 yen.

>>52517904
You can use timeshift before the stream aired, in which case you can watch it once an hour (or so) after the broadcast aired. Timeshift will only work again if you have a premium account.

I bet they felt good after raping.

>>52517866
He posted here the day before yesterday. It would seem that he really quite sincerely loves this place and worked quite hard to do his best to keep it as decent as he could.

>>52517911
No dude, He went to /adv/ to ask advice from women and they bitched at him for using error 405 on them as a way to contact them, they thought they were being banned and they threatened to e-mail moot. This in a way is still abuse of power.

Regardless, if Kyle was scared of what they said, it just means that moot really does read all his e-mails.

>he was doing a terrible job at the end
He says this himself, actually:
>A few months ago I decided to focus more on my job, pulling in 18-hour days and scrambling to develop software with the hope that our company would be awarded a contract and I'd make a lot more money than I do now. I became unable to spend more than a few hours on the site in a day, usually in 30-minute blocks spaced hours apart, so as time went on shitty posters started falling through the cracks and poisoned /a/ with greentext and reaction images and imagespamming and shit that I was unable to combat as fully as I'd have liked.

>>52518058

>>52518059

>Either he was doing a terrible job at the end or /a/ was just that shitty.

>he wasn't around during /a/'s Golden Age during 2009

Honestly, when Modcat arrived and was here on /a/, there was hardly an off topic thread on the front page for more than five minutes. And he did the impossible and got gorespammer to stop his shit. It was glorious.

>>52518058

>>52518069
Actually from a boards:mod ratio viewpoint, 4chan has more mods. 2ch has boards for everything, but they don't need as many mods since they don't have as many trolls and shitposters. They also don't have images which is what most people get banned for.

>>52518136
>Golden Age
>09'

Really? I stopped coming to /a/ in 08 and most of 09 because it was just that bad. Didn't know I have him to thank for at least getting /a/ back on its feet

>>52518136
>Golden Age
>2009

>>52518082

Come back ;__;

>>52518181
Sounds like a yaoi title about a Japanese guy and an American guy.

>>52518116
You're probably thinking of 2chan, which is smaller than 4chan now actually.

2ch, the text board, is way the fuck bigger than 4chan.

>>52518178
>>52518199
>>52518205

Oh, /a/non, stop being faggots.

By 'golden age' I was referring to the few weeks modcat was here, not all of 2009.

Face it, Modcat's time here at /a/ was the best time I've ever been on /a/. Did you honestly think 2006 was a good year with LOLCODEGEASS and LOLHARUHI?

>>52518225
But that's what it is.

>>52518136
>Golden Age
>2009

I was without internet during that year, and even I knew it was a shitty year.

>>52518197
In terms of ratio, it seems we do have more mods, but 20-50 Mods just means that it's either moot is lying or he's not even sure of his own workforce. At least Hiroyuki actually said 300 flat.

Another thing with 2ch is that some boards barely have any posts at all.

>>52518255
But Geass was in 2008

>>52518178

>>52518116
4chan's Alexa rank is ~700
2ch's is ~200

I know Alexa isn't perfect, but it's a good rough indicator

Yet you will continue to come here because this is the best place youve ever been on on the internet. stay hypocrite /a/

>>52518255

/a/ was never good. It existed for the sole purpose of trolling and the idea of having 'serious discussions' was doomed from the beginning.

>>52518307
>implying anybody was implying that

>>52518276
>>>/3/
>>>/n/

>>52518276
I interpreted it as 20-50 being around 24/7, number depending on time of day and day of week. Or something like that. But I don´t have the impression that at least 20 mods are here all the time.

>>52518324
/a/ exist before 2008 you know

>>52518082

Next time that faggot moot comes through here we need to tell him to reinstate A-san.

>>52518290

Geass had two seasons.

>>52518136

>>52518324
But I've had nice discussion in Berserk, Jojo and Dantalian threads...
Also I love this place because it teaches people not to take themselves seriously.

>>52518082

Who's Anonymous-san?

Infinite Stratos is the cawwadooty of haremshit

>>52518355
moot has outright said to canv.as users that 4chan doesn't have more than 2 active mods

>>52518255
Every year was better than 2009. Even 2010. Even this year. /a/ was probably in its worst state during that year. Spam up the ass and trolls everywhere. A couple weeks of moderation doesn't make up for all that shit.

>>52518372
Error 405. That's modcat contacted people. Problem was those girls were probably idiots for being scared over nothing.

>>52518385
Anonymous-san is modcat

>>52518372
IIRC that's Smochi

He was one of the worst, if not the worst, mod ever. So why talking about him anyway?

>>52518398
But force taiga/lanced jack was so much fuuuuun

>>52518255
2005-2006 will always be my favorite era, personally. I'll miss those days.
We really used to celebrate this site, just reveling in the fact that we were still alive—because you never really knew when the site might shit itself for whatever reason and just kick the bucket once and for all.
Re/b/oot was probably the beginning of the end, when we really started actively fighting one another instead of having mindless fun.

Maybe that's when the hivemind died.

>>52518387
I knew moot was lying. He probably did it to at least look good.

>>52518432
It's not, it's some girl from /soc/.

>>52518372
>tripped as a femanon
>your post was interesting

>>52518432
Smochi's the retarded bitch, not that random girl.

>>52518398

Hence why I wasn't saying 2009 was a good year. I said that the time when Modcat was on /a/ during 2009 was good. Reading comprehension, Komeiji, use it.

>>52518197
>They also don't have images which is what most people get banned for.

wut, have you ever been on 2chan???

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KiaJaViCg3w

I will never know how I missed the modcat shitstorm

>>52518453
Though really, the site seemed like it could die at any time earlier this year, and things didn't get any better

>>52518447

Cancer.

>>52518373

>Good discussions do happen.

Few and far between, compared to the amount of tripfag circlejerks, dubs faggotry, avatar fagging etc that's really shitting up this board with every passing day. Yes, occasionally you are going to find a good thread. But the vast majority of the time /a/ is pretty much just a shithole which makes it interesting.

>>52518486
2ch, retard.

>>52518487
Thanks comrade.

>>52518082
God that thread sums everything I hate about tripfags.

>>52518487
Cheers

>>52518481
Nope. You said the "golden age of 2009", referring to the entire year. You should explicitly referred to those two weeks instead if you didn't want people mistaking you.

>>52518487
Thank You !

>>52518511
What moot needs to do;
1. Hire a lot of new mods (say 50 or so)
2. Perma-ban and demod all the ones that are really shitty

There, 4chan now has 2 new mods.

Smoked cheese is a cunt, agreed?

>>52518486
your post reeks of underageb&

>>52518543

I'll quote my entire post back to you.

">Either he was doing a terrible job at the end or /a/ was just that shitty.

>he wasn't around during /a/'s Golden Age during 2009

Honestly, when Modcat arrived and was here on /a/, there was hardly an off topic thread on the front page for more than five minutes. And he did the impossible and got gorespammer to stop his shit. It was glorious."

Now let me quote the relevant part.

">he wasn't around during /a/'s Golden Age during 2009"
"during 2009"
"DURING'

>>52518585
Why is it so hard? There are thousands of internet warriors who post ALL day who would love to delete shit threads for free.

>>52518585
How can he get 50 trustworthy NEETs willing to work as a mod without getting paid?

>>52518586
Yes.

>>52518638
I'd do it.

>>52518623
Because it's hard to verify who wouldn't go crazy with power like that. Some people just have a dick streak to them and would delete everything they can, and put a sticky right up top to get hoards of attention

then why don't we find some titles that may fit /a/ board?

to /a/r/u/ /m/ajutsu no Inde/x/

>>52518623
Because he's worried that they'll fuck everything up and go power mad before he has a chance to demod them.

Can you blame him?
Personally, I say give /b/ mods. And don't let them moderate ANY other boards. And don't let anyone be a global moderator if they also browse /b/.

>>52518543
On another note, how did modcat actually stop Gorespammer from doing his work?

I guess b&hammer wouldnt work on that one.

I was away for a long time here, I was here when russians spammed /m/ and /a/ with gore when GL aired and of course the Bakemonogatari gorespammer threads. But how did it actually stop? Was there a thread about that infinity Gorespammer ban?

Couldnt he just hide behind 7 proxies?

Any information?

>>52518638
You must be new here. A couple months ago he made resume forms for people wanting to be janitors.

>>52518667

Still a mystery to this day.

>>52518660
What abotu A Channel

>>52518655
It wouldn't be complicated to keep track of everything they delete or do. Then a single trusted moderator could moderate the NEET moderators.

>>52518638
If he wanted to, he could get hundreds of us (well, let´s say dozens from /a/) working for free for him. Thing is, we would end up deleting everything we don´t like and the board content would be reduced to 10%.

Is the video stream archived somewhere?

>>52518487
Thanks

>>52518638
Hell, I'd do it. I applied for a janitor application too, though unfortunately I didn't get accepted.

>>52518678
Janitors do nothing more than enforce board rules, and don't even ban people. Unfortunately, janitor applications still haven't been put into use.

waiting for fanarts of this historic meetup.

>>52518667
He was gorespammer, and he "banned" himself for his debut.

>>52518693
Yeah, no. Trolling for days on a show /a/ didn't give a shit about.

>Hire 251 mods
>moot now has 1 Mod more than Hiroyuki

>>52518710
Were you rejected for some reason or just ignored?

>>52518724
Janitors have been contacted and are currently janitoring.

Though god only knows how many gave up.

>>52518710
>unfortunately

>>52518667

It might have been an urban legend but I heard something about /a/ getting the kid in trouble at his school or some similar shit

I think I'd do it for free too. After all we'd just have to warn and ban doubles faggotry and /soc/ threads.

Being mod for turns of few hours would also be beneficial. Also, there are some trip users (not tripfags) who I think deserve the title for their activities.

>>52518487
>First post on /a/, Moot is a faggot.

Fucking lol'd.

>>52518751
I just never got a response, so I was turned away in favour of other people who applied, it's not like I was told "You'd be a shitty janitor, don't bother applying" or anything.

>>52518768
Isnt there any thread archived to confirm anything?

Anyway, that would make a great blackmail hentai.

>>52518764
Why would you disagree that I would make at least a decent janitor?

>>52518754
>Janitors have been contacted and are currently janitoring.
From what I understood last week they still had yet to go through the pre-janitor orientation shit.

>>52518764
I dunno, Aniki-tan's been pretty consistently decent for years.
That's better than you can say, dude. You've been involved in some fucking SHITSTORMS.

>>52518588
I'm 25.

>>52518817
>pre janitor orientation

Wat? So they are trained to be janitors? What´s there to know besides board rules which should be clear to everybody who has spent some months here.

>>52518816
>decent

Really?

>>52518846
In that case you´re just retarded. You confused 2ch with 2chan, for example.

Where's the hipSTAR part? I had to leave the computer for like 5 minutes and missed it.

>>52518868
>board rules which should be clear to everybody who has spent some months here.

hahaha

;_;

>>52518885
You're still not saying anything otherwise, all you're doing is quoting parts of what I'm saying and uploading reaction images.

>>52518902
Well, I added "should" for a purpose.

>>52518487
Got the rest of the video?

rofl at the refresh

>>52516276
don't you mean it is your favorite anime

>>52518886
it's true, if it doesn't have pictures it's irrelevant to me and my brain exchanges words with more relevant things.

>>52518940
I do but it's still rendering the .avi on my shitty computer. Also it's probably going to be huge and will take forever to upload. Hopefully some Japanese guy from 2ch or futaba will upload it to nyaa.

>>52518940
You really want to listen to them drone about facebook and canv.as for 40 minutes?

>>52519003

Can you upload it to the same youtube account and post it in the description of the current video when it is avaliable?

>>52518908
Shall I assume that because you're not replying that you don't even have a semi-competent answer as to why I'd be a bad janitor?

>>52519050
I didn't upload the other video. I'll be uploading to mediafire if I can. Probably not seeing the raw camtasia file was 14 GB.

>>52519056
No, because I'm getting ready to leave, so I don't have the time to bother engaging with a shitposter who associates with people like Taiga.

>>52519056
Not the dude you're replying to. But if you can't let this go, I think that's a good indicator already

>>52519103
>shitposter
Look, I can do it too, see how well me quoting one word and posting a picture illustrates my entire point.

>>52519120
I'm with this man.

>>52519120
I'm not holding a grudge or anything, I was legitimately wondering why he thought I'd make a bad janitor, turns out he thinks it's because I talk to Taiga that I'd make a bad janitor.

>>52519056
refer to >>52519120

janitors should be impartial, you're getting too irritated over some stupid shit

just ignore him if it pisses you off so much

>>52519170
Please, wanting to hold a discussion doesn't make mean I'm irritated that he said I wouldn't be a bad janitor. I was just enquiring as to why. He said why, and that's good enough for me, I got my answer.

>>52519142
Cool ad hominem, the difference is that usually allegations have something substantial behind them. You only participate in meta threads and circlejerk. You can't let go of something as unimportant as my posting.

You're terrible janitor material.

>>52519202
>would

>>52519202
Let's move the discussion.

IF you were a janitor what would you do?
Or for everybody. What are the top priority things to delete/ban/punish in /a/?

>>52519217
Well that's your opinion, I just hope I get the chance to become a janitor and prove you wrong for my own satisfaction because of never being able to tell anyone that I'm a janitor.

Have fun with wherever you're going.

>>52519245
Not him, but I´d delete every single thread which has a 3dpd OP picture, recommendation threads, obvious troll threads. And ban shitheads like Park Ranger as soon as they show up.

Although troll threads sometimes turn into gold once they are properly derailed.

Oh, well, and GET faggotry.

>>52519264
>well that's your opinion
Just let it go man. Try to give something to discuss instead of clinging to stuff like this.
Have you seen a teacher? Teachers try to give their students something worthy, and good teachers laugh when a student calls them a fag, or says they aren't good teachers.

>>52519322
Oh the irony

>>52519339
Where´s the irony? What else would you consider the priorities of a janitor to be?

>>52519322
>every single thread
If they're anime related, they would stay
>recommendation threads
allowed by the rules
>obvious troll threads
allowed by the rules
>ban
nope.m4a

janitors don't get to pick and choose. You follow the rules when deleting threads, and you don't get to give out bans.

>>52519264
>responding to a tripfag that does only trolling

>>52519322
>And ban shitheads like Park Ranger as soon as they show up.
You're an idiot.
You know that, right?

>>52519394
>Oh, well, and GET faggotry.
>he got a GET

>>52519322
Maybe not every 3DPD image, but certainly those about cosplayers or trolls stating 3D>2D. Not for philosophy, but for unrelated content.

I think recommendation threads could be avoided with a sticky, but people here hate to be nice to new people.

And, well, Park Ranger deserves it. So I agree with that.

Another thing. What do you people think about r/a/dio?

>>52519397
>obvious troll threads
>allowed by the rules
Global rules faggot. Heard of them?

>>52519437
I don't understand why everyone hates on r/a/dio so much. Sometimes it's nice to just listen to it while browsing.

>>52519397
Well it should be clear what I mean with 3dpd. Threads about VAs etc are not included.

>troll threads allowed by the rules
Nope. According to the rules trolling is only allowed on /b/.

>ban
I know janitors don´t ban. But the subject was brought up.

>>52519245
For me, top priority would be to delete spam as soon as possible. This would go for incredibly off-topic threads (/soc/ threads, for instance) to intentionally inflammatory posts that disrupt discussion.

The thing about off-topic threads is how fickle they can be when it comes to actual discussion. I'd say "if it's worthwhile and not intrusive, let it go." Actual discussion and not just some image dump, I mean.

As far as inflammatory posts go, I mean shit like Alice threads, that one ranger Pokey Minch tripfag who constantly ban-evades, and the usual shit like gore, CP, etc.

I don't have a lot of issues with /a/ as it is now, but as long as someone is there to moderate and clean up, it's fine with me.

>>52519438
People pick out "obvious" troll threads subjectively. You don't know what is trolling and what is someone just new or who doesn't know what they're talking about. You can't delete them if you can't be sure, so you have to leave that to a mod. There aren't as many clearcut troll threads as you'd think.

>>52519458
>Implying spamming the board with UNTZ UNTZ XD is good in any way whatsoever

>>52519458
The problem is the threads. For the most part, the threads are nothing more than spam and /soc/ bullshit. There is a decent amount of image dumping and discussion about a given show, but that never lasts long.

>>52519458
It's always the same few songs that go on r/a/dio. I get that that's kinda the whole point, but it gets boring after a while. /jp/ radio is much better.

>>52519479
Some threads are obvious troll threads. For example "how do you justify watching moeshit?" Nothing good comes from these threads, and often there are 5 of them shitting up the front page.

If I was a mod, /a/ would never be filled with despair ever again.

I'd just sand off some of the rough edges.

>>52519437
>Maybe not every 3DPD image
This board is about 2D culture, the only 3D that is should be accepted are figurines, seiyuu.

>>52519528
Technically, that's a legitimate discussion. You can't say for sure someone is attempting to do anything but get real opinions out of people, just using a word they don't like, only because it's the one word /a/ can agree on to fit a group of shows.

>>52519528
Then I'd say the "troll threads" should be deleted when there's a significative amount.
I've seen some derailed threads that become into good discussion.

The troll threads point is certainly too delicate. I'd give top priority to off-topic threads and doubles.

>>52519580
And mangaka, staff from studios, whatever. It´s easy enough to draw a line between anime related 3dpd and stuff which doesn´t belong here.

>>52519580
As long as it pertains to anime or manga, it's allowed. If it isn't, it goes. Simple as that. The problem comes up when we have smaller boards, like /cgl/ and /toy/ where something else belongs just as much as it belongs here.

OK I just catched this. >>52519463
as a mod, wat do?

>>52519616
We got /cgl/ so we don´t have to have cosplay threads here. If there is a specific quarantine board for something (with exception of maybe /m/), it doesn´t belong here anymore.

>>52519647
Wait to see if it causes a shitstorm.

>>52519647
GET thread. Delete thread after a while (let the kids have fun for some minutes).

Almost everytime I created such a thread myself (rewatch Endless Eight, for example) I even got banned for a couple of days.

>>52519647
That's a bit tough, but I'd definitely get rid of it if I see several "rolling" comments in a row without a picture.

>>52519691
I am tempted to feel that you should never be allowed to be a mod if you've ever created that shit yourself.

>>52519647
spamming/flooding is clearly against the rules, and inciting it is just an extension that deserves a ban as well.

>>52518573
fuck yes

>>52519713
Duh, it was when I was new and I learned the rules since then.

>>52519217
cool ad hominem bro

If anything, moot should be making more, smaller boards, and keeping a good mod/janitor to user ratio, instead of the impossible mess we have now. It's fun occasionally, but most days it's just impossible to find something good through.

>>52519807
Are you implying 4chan should become something like 2ch with hundreds of sub-boards for normalfags?

Or that we need more genre-specific anime boards?

>>52519807

Maybe breaking down the biggest boards should be enough. /b/ is a black hole of despair and durr, so that one sould be left alone, but /v/ got rid of a lot of shit with /vp/, for example.

>>52519807
I'm up for a new loli board.

>>52519880
Can we bring back /z/, while we're at it?

>>52519880
I´d second that. Although if I want to fap to lolis, there are always the Shitkaku forums. Delicious loli dumps all the day.

inb4 hurr Shitkaku, I only go there to fap.

>>52519807
Moot has already made a point of saying that he's not making anymore niche boards "out of every flavor of the month /a/ has." While this really was aimed at /a/'s constant whining about stupid shit every other month, it can be inferred that this means "no more /a/ spinoff boards."

>>52519616
What would your opinion be of image dumps that aren't appropriate for either /c/ or /cm/? For example, when people dump a chapter of manga, like Yotsuba.

>>52520007
Image dumps are fine. People keep forgetting this is an imageboard first and foremost, a discussion board second. Extended discussions are for the textboard.

People who bitch about imagedumps have no idea what the fuck they're talking about, and my little newfag couldn't possibly be this new.

>>52520007

Not that guy.
I think manga dumps are good, they encourage people to read manga and contribute. Also, the Story Time dumps allow users to discover stuff they might like.

Maybe the /c/ dumps shouldn't be allowed. At least to give /c/ more traffic.

Why the hell don't we have a sticky with /a/ recommendations wiki in it?

If we are going to have newfags, at least educate them

>>52520088
This. When someone complains about an imagedump being an imagedump, they're actually just complaining about the content. For example, there's that Hetalia thread everyday with manga strips or webcomic segments or whatever it is they post. People are complaining about the presence of Hetalia on the board, not the imagedump itself.

>>52520193
>implying anyone reads stickies

>>52520193
Because a sticky would need 1 thread on the front page and /a/ is moving too fast. But I think we could use a link to the wiki on the front page. Or the first page could have 10 stickies adressing various issues and we would browse the 2nd page.

>>52520263
And what kind of people only refresh page 0? Newfags.

>>52520263
What about a link to the wiki right below the link to the text board? Maybe something like "READ THIS FOR ANIME AND MANGA RECOMENDATIONS AND OTHER FANCY STUFF YOU MAY NEED"

>recommend stickies
And here, I got a problem. Why feed newfags what they don't deserve?

I think recommendation threads are fine. Sometimes they're thinly-veiled attempts at trolling, but other times someone is just looking for something a little more personal than a chart. Sure, we can sort series by genre, but that doesn't really do much, does it? Look at the mahou shoujo genre-- Sailor Moon, Card Captor Sakura, Arjuna, Madoka..

When someone lists the series they've enjoyed so far, we can usually get an idea of what it is they probably liked about those series or whatever, and can go from there.

Looking at one of the commonly posted charts, we've got Utena and Tokyo Godfathers in the same column. Yes, these are both definitely worth watching, but if someone came on /a/ saying, "Hey guys, I really liked Tokyo Godfathers, can you recommend me more like this?" I wouldn't say Utena.

>>52520378
Because if you don't, they'll shit up a decent thread. And someone else will feed them, they always do.

Though I doubt a sticky would work, anyway.

>>52520378
But the newfags still help their peers, resulting in recommendation threads taking up half of the front page.

>>52520305
>And what kind of people only refresh page 0? Newfags.
Who browses the other pages when we've got the 4chan catalog? Newfags.

>>52520378
Because they won't have an excuse to be retards (not that their excuses are good anyway) and their stupid threads could be deleted.

>>52520418
I'm sure they can put in the effort to do a little research on the things in the same category before watching.

delivering more reactions
