Brief history lesson on /b/: there used to be gets; there used to be wins. There were raids and yes some faggotry, but it was at times at least clever. The quality of content on average was much higher than now, when you scroll and refresh ten times until you are past all of the unsuccessfully imitated threads of people who actually know anything about this site, it's flavor, and its culture.

Yes, it is possible for young little newfags to find free porn here, get attention by showing tits (that 95% of the time are just fucking troll threads), and further shit on what used to be a refuge to some, and a home to many.

So what can a good Anon such as yourself do? Ignore bad posts; don't even tell them that they're bad anymore. They will filter to page 10 even faster. Lurk moar: if you have nothing useful/clever/funny/original to say, do not say it (Disclaimer: just because something is OC does not mean that it is worth posting).

I call upon Anonymous to gather into the legion, to wage a pseudowar upon its own self, to fight the cancer within.

Tl; dr: lurk moar if you do not understand the world around you

Contribution
What is considered positive contribution?
Our definition of "positive contribution" is the submission of substantial, helpful, friendly, and humorous posts to the boards, along with the uploading of quality images and files. We feel that positive contribution should be treated as a way of donating to 4chan without actually having to fork over cash.

Why is contribution so important?
Contribution is important because it is what drives this website. If we didn't have a dedicated pool of users who frequently contribute, we'd be yet another stagnant run of the mill forum. But we aren't. By having an increasing number of diverse and quality contributors, 4chan becomes more unique, interesting, and enjoyable to use.

How can I become a good contributor?
It's really quite easy. If you have something to add to a topic: reply. If you have an interesting, high quality, neat, rare, etc. picture: upload it! Share your mind and image collections with us. Don't just leech! Give back to the community which you take from. It's a simple and effective way to grow the site. Before contributing, make sure you're acquainted with the rules.
