The next 4chan Q&A/PMQ session will be held on Sunday, November 18th at 8:00PM EST.

I'm also taking questions/comments/feedback/random musings via e-mail at moot@4chan.org and on AIM at MOOTCHAT. Feel free to drop me a line or say hi!

New inline extension features: Color user IDs, download by original filename, and settings export/restore. Click [Settings] in the upper-right to check 'em out.

UPDATE: The "Auto" checkbox for the auto-updater is now sticky, so if you refresh the page or come back to a thread, it will stay checked (so long as you don't close your browser—it'll reset in that case).

This is from Romania, Sapanta. The Merry Cemetery

here is the english translation for that text.

"I am Dioca Ţăhu, here I lie in the shadow of the plum tree. If you stop here, you will get to know that I was a column of my house which I have left crying and mourning. Since my childhood I loved to work, I loved very much to take care of the horse and sheep. None else in the village had such horses and sheep like me. I loved very much the horses, and they were also the reason of my death. For while sitting on the haystack on my coach, I fell down and this is how I found my death."
