Why? What's the harm in just adding like 12 new boards that people keep requesting? So what if there's not a lot of traffic. Is there any way new boards would legitimately have a negative effect on 4chan?Administrator Replies: >>116435 >>116567
>Unless we are explicitly accepting board suggestions in a stickied thread, board requests will be ignored.That's why. Please read the sticky next time, friend.
>>115823I understand that, but I'm curious as to why moot is so reluctant to make new boards. There has to be some reason.
Hassle.
I agree and if their not too niche they won't be slower than /3/Actually any new board will be faster than /3/
Harder to moderate.
/fur/ is needed
>>115896thisWe have boards for Ecchi and Yuri, yet furry has gone completely unaddressed
>>115896No board is neededIn fact some boards should be deleted like /vp/
>>115919Where would the community go then?
>>115922A general thread on /vg/ is all they need. There are larger communities that thrive there.
>>115927What about the trading cards?
>>115927Really?I feel like Pokemon would start flooding /v/ and /a/ as wellThe whole reason it was made was to deal with the massive amounts of people who want to talk about Pokemon
>/fur/ is neededwile we r @ it letz encurage mur returds 2 vizit for chans n hav narutoo on /a/
>>115896>>115914No, we don't need a furry board. We have so much cancer it's a wonder the body of 4chan hasn't collapsed. We don't need more.Fuck, sometimes I hate /q/.
>>115976>implying the point of a /fur/ board isn't to keep fur shit out of the rest of 4chan>implying /vp/ wasn't made not to make Pokefags happy but to keep Pokeshit out of the rest of 4chan
Delete /po/ and /vp/
>>116004Why /vp/?
>>116001No one minds pokeshit, that's different. Everyone minds furries. We don't need any more of you.
>>116011So you want to contain a fandom you don't mind, but refuse to make a board to contain a fandom you hate?What are you thinking?
>>116055They're not contained. People can post pokemon anywhere. They're just not allowed to talk about the games on /v/.
New boards use up money and resources faggot.
>>115934No, the reason it was made was because /v/ was flooded with Pokemon porn shit.
>>115849Because we already have 50, and new boards go to shit if they aren't well moderated or have enough good users to start off on the right foot. I've always tried to keep the number of boards to a minimum by keeping them as general as possible. Having a gajillion niche boards isn't something I want -- you can use other sites for that.
>>116435so then can we get a Not Girl/Not Guy board?i personally like traps and what not, cds, etc.but i can't stand to see them on /b/ if they aren't trolled they are just annoyingno offense but 7chan has a better layout for some of the porn stuff, but i understand what you meani think there has to be a way to include all of these trapping niches into one general boardjust saying...
>>116435Hey Moot, that's a useful answer.It's about time we got some clarification on this stuff. I know the sticky says no new board suggestions, but it doesn't say why. Perhaps update it with what you just said there?
>>116435have you thought about deleting any boards or merging them?
>>116435[spoiler] What do you think of lolicon moot-kun? Would you ever an /l/? [/spoiler]And you say that but we have shit like /an/
>>116435But 2ch does it.... and that's why they're the coolest chan on the internet. You need to get with the times pal.
>>116435For what it is worth I support this.>>116544Please not again.
>>116540No because that always goes poorly.>>116544No.>>1165452ch.so is indeed pretty cool.
>>116567What are your thoughts on tripfags? Do you think they're attention whores that should be purged or what?
>>116567moot, have you considered if the one-time captcha on 2ch.so? Would it work on 4chan?
>>116575Some spammers already manually enter the captcha, so this wouldn't work.
>>116567So what have you been thinking about lately moot? Is your stress at a tolerable level? I feel your life must be nothing but work.
>>116606>>116573Jeez guys, send him an email or something.Stay on topic or let the thread die.
>>116573If he didn't like tripfags he'd just remove the ability to trip. C'mon, this is simple.
>>116567moot, please at least set rules about desktop threads!There's no reason not to, I'm tired of people arguing about where desktop threads go!
>>116691/g/, am I right?
>>116707/g/ is where the threads are the most popular but even when people aren't spambotting its still a bunch of arguments about how desktop threads should go on /wg/
>>116544/l/ was tried./an/ is animals AND plants. Doesn't get more general than that.
>>116544>And you say that but we have shit like /an/Just because you don't go to /an/...
>>1165452ch.so isn't as populated as 4chan.
>moot appears in thread>thread swiftly and violently derailedAt least I got my answer!
>>116796There was no point to the thread anyway, The answer has been said thousands of times.
>>116800The point was reminding me that Helvetica updated like fifty pages.
>mentioning 2ch.so as a good example of anything
>>117055They have mods.
>>117072And it's still a rotten piece of shit.
>>117082Better than 4chan though, yet it's most likely just based on traffic.
>>117089>Better than 4chanChto esche spizdanyosh?
>>117100pizdui na mdk lolka i da - op hui
>>116567Futaba has tons of niche boards, and they have even less people than us. ;_;

>>116567You mention that you haven't thought of getting rid of boards, but have you thought about spinning off the work safe sections of 4chan from the NSFW sections and having them hosted on separate sites? You mentioned before that finding advertisers was hard, is it possible that this would make it easier?

>>116775According to our statistics, 2ch.so's /b/ is only about 3 times slower than 4chan's. Your argument is not so valid.
>>116545http://www.youtube.com/watch?hl=en&v=vKykvNIf3Ss&gl=USNa sosach, bydlo
>>116567>2ch.so is indeed pretty cool.To piss on the face is, perhaps, the worst humiliation; only shitting on the face, or rape can rival it.There was always lots of metaphorical pissing on the face on Sosach(2ch.so): Embedded vkontakte(russian facebook) chat, "Name" field in /b/, publication of CP-posters' IPs, official twitter and vkontakte accounts, moderation staff consisting of faggots from olanet.ru, selling of moderator accounts, bydloforum-like rules, publication of top5-posters' IPs, tripcodes, ban of links to other imageboards, SEO, mass-bans in /s/ and /dev/, attentionwhore-admins in /rf/, political advertising, official support of United Russia and pedophilyc histeria, denunciation of CP-posters to police, paid raid on Vudman, sites makeyourmeme.ru, lulzne.ws and sarafanka.com, mail on @2ch.so being read by moderators, buying maddison's vkontakte group for advertising of their shithole, pop-up banners, bans for linking to or mentioning AdBlock, Rakochan vkontakte group, advertising of their shithole on youtube.com and demotivation.me, paid threads advertising Futubra, paid /mmm/-board(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MMM-2011), watermarks on all pictures(like on ninegag-like shitholes), autoreplacement "sosach -> dvach", just like in old pedal times, wordfilter, personal warning count, and this implies a unique id, bans for sage and bumps(!), and after all official transformation of sosach into vkontakte's affiliate branch by mating it with mdk public group.
>>117492>>117529>>117574Skeen' pak
>>117833And even this is not a full list of sosachers' humiliation, because it doesn't include many things that didn't make it to kolchan(1chan.ru) and about which poor urine-drinkers will never talk.All this sums up how Sosaka treats its lemming-"Legion", -- pisses right in their dirty face, which is exactly what they deserve.
>>117820>KO-KO-KOExcuse me, what?
>>117833Ochkoroosta!

>>117833>just like in old pedal timesLike something bad. I am almost miss them.Hyperbolas, hyperbolas everywhere.But sosach is indeed a shithole. And i still hope m00t was just joking.
>>117854PIKHALICK, KAK DELA NA PIKHACHE?
>>117751YA, OCHEVIDNO ZHE
>>117595Well, with language barrier anyone could make a mistake like this. There is also a bit of our own guilt, too, as we didn't write any articles in dramatica, ohinternet, knowyourmeme and other popular information dumps about what kind of place sosach - and actual Russian _anonymous_ imageboards - are. After all, most of Russians who can't speak English won't confuse 4chan with gaia or reddit since people are able to check corresponding pages in lurkmore.
>>117886>Hyperbolas, hyperbolas everywhere.Facts and only facts.
moot, would you consider making a 2D general board? Also, what about an "obscure hobbies/recreations general"?
>>118046upvote for /hob/
>>117989Many of those facts are just a wild guesses. There is exaggerations. I'm too lazy to analyze it all, but there are many of them.I'm not protecting sosach and Abu but let's be honest it is not the guilt of only administration.It is a natural process. Which is started long before mochan. Now only time of apotheosis.
>>116567> indeed pretty coolOne word: NOBeing familiar even a little bit with russian imageboard culture, you would never say that.Cynicism? Anarchy? Impartiality? Honesty? Loyality and honor?B&, B&, B&, B&, B& and B&. Sosach (derived from "sosat'" -- to suck) fully justifies its byname. Some people compare it to 4chan, but it all actually is like one huge 4chan's /b/, visitors of which, in addition, have no ideals, no culture and no will. Typical herd of bydlo and hamsters, thinking with default categories and grinding the same topics day after day.Please, do not think that that shit bucket is even a single little bit cool without knowing what it really is.About boards: separate, divide and duplicate. Having, let's say, 5-8 /b/s with slightly different general topic each is *much* better than having one which is can hardly be used for large complex 2-3-day lasting discussion. Futaba did it, and, nevertheless, futaba delivers. /v/ and /vg/ were a good step, so you just keep it up.I came.P.S. enable non-ASCII text, I cannot even post a em-dash!
>>118074>Many of those facts are just a wild guesses. There is exaggerations. I'm too lazy to analyze it all, but there are many of them.No, they may seem like exaggerations, but it's because sosach is in fact that low.>I'm not protecting sosach and Abu but let's be honest it is not the guilt of only administration.No. It was Pedalik who started all this, and it is Pedalik(Abu is just his new nickname) who continues it.
>>118137>PedalikMorelike pee-duh-lique.I still have some doubts about current sosach admin's identity.Many things point to that it's a completely different person, including his post writing style, which is way more grammatically correct and calm, or cow cunt's butthurt in her LJ after she got banned as a member of pedal brigade, but some things indirectly point to that the identities are the same. That includes more or less similar administration policy or managing style, which are dedicated to earning money using audience. But after the December of 2010, it went much more efficient and annoying.So I incline to that it is not the same person, especially because of his writing style, which is not easily changed. You can try linguistic analysis with pedaliquepasta and current admin's posts and see the difference (or lack of it). I'd draw some internets for you if you (or someone else) did that and posted on 1chan or elsewhere.
>>118137Oh lol. >Abu is just his new nicknameNope. I chatted with Sky many times %%and was banned by him%% and i've seen an Abu posts. They are not the same person. And by the way, where is Tinuviel? Why Hanyufag ruined database?>they may seem like exaggerations, but it's because sosach is in fact that lowNope again. There **is** exaggerations. Such as about selling moderator account or about /rf/ attentionwhoring. Smith is not smth bad.>official support of United RussiaLol. There was nothing official in it. No more official then another Rozen Maiden thread.>watermarks on all picturesNot on all. Only if those lemmings want to.>pop-up bannersLike on 0chan, isn't it?>pedophilyc histeriaJust go in /po/ and find a thread about hunting on a pedophile hunters.And i don't mention that there is no proofs for something you wrote and something i heard. I will repeat again. I am not protecting Abu or soasach. But inadequate demonization will give us nothing.Sosach is a shithole and garbage dump because of bydlo and nothing more.
>>118354> Like on 0chan, isn't it?Of course! That's because sosaka (as well as other sosachers) cannot think up anything original and keep stealing everything (including popup ads).
>>118354>Such as about selling moderator accountReimu bought moderator account, banned everyone and got kicked out. Prufy u reimu.>or about /rf/ attentionwhoring. Smith is not smth bad.hahaha-oh-wow.png>Lol. There was nothing official in it. No more official then another Rozen Maiden thread.What about "Ko-ko-ko" banners?>Not on all. Only if those lemmings want to.Watermarks were on by default when they were introduced.>Like on 0chan, isn't it?No, 0chan redirects open in new tab(And everyone who is not a complete bydlo disabled advertising on 0chan anyway)
>>118354>And by the way, where is Tinuviel? Why Hanyufag ruined database?They both say that Pedalik=Sosaka, too. He broke ties with them to not be easily discovered.
>>118456>bought moderator account, banned everyone and got kicked outAny links? I want to read about that. Even without a proofs.>What about "Ko-ko-ko" banners?There is no any banners or ads in the internets for me. Because of adblock and anal request policy. So i don't know anything about that.>No, 0chan redirects open in new tab(And everyone who is not a complete bydlo disabled advertising on 0chan anyway)Anyway, nulch is dead. There is only rozenfags, ponyfags, vipes and that the worst 1.3K-kun there.>>118488Any proofs maybe? I am absolutely sure that they are not the same person. Have you even heard about ZKP?also: http://hivemind.me/thread/1092.html
>>118579You say "1300-kun" like that's a bad thing.Nulch is surely not much alive, but is still the only free board in Erafia.
>>118579>Any links? I want to read about that. Even without a proofs.http://1chan.ru/news/res/279493/http://1chan.ru/news/res/280609/>There is no any banners or ads in the internets for me.

So i don't know anything about that.Nice try, ola-shit, Ko-Ko-Ko-banner was hosted on sosach itself, it could never make it into adblock list.>Have you even heard about ZKP?ZKP is just another ola-whore who shits up boards pretending that he fights ola-whores.

>>118637>Nice try, ola-shitIt is a whole new level of paranoia, i think.>ZKP is just another ola-whorehahaha-oh-wow.png>pretending that he fights ola-whoresHe is not even pretending. He is just whining.Thank you, anyway.>>118624Maybe free but not usable at all. I prefer d****chan.>You say "1300-kun" like that's a bad thing.It is complicated. Not bad, not good. Complicated.
>>118707>Maybe free but not usable at all. I prefer d****chan.But it's not even an imageboard, just rusanon's blog.
>>118659Golden copypastes of Kakun in ten volumes? Ah, what a nostalgia.But to translate them will be too much honor to him. He will manage without it.
>>118722And what do you suggest? Sosach and his shit? Nulch and his vipes? Cirno and its anal moderation?Here i am almost always RO. Too fast, too pushy. D----chan is an option. At least few of threads in /a/, /rf/ and /b/ are readable.
>>118789>At least few of threads in /a/, /rf/ and /b/ are readable.You mean roleplay-threads? LOOOOOOL
I suggest kolchan.
>>118859Well, if you aren't too lazy to set something like dollscript to autohide official threads, d----chan becomes nice enough. It's true for /b/, thoug may be applied to /a/ and /rf/ as well.
>>118789>visiting rusanon's blog>complaining about moderationI lol'd.
>>118859Of course not. Rozen Maiden threads i mean. [spoiler]Just joking[spoiler]I mean at time to time. Not bad ongoing threads, request thread. It is quiet and kind place. Maybe a little too quite and too kind. When was the last time when you got there?>kolchanIt is very tiring. Once in a week, not more. Besides it is not an image board too.
>>118912I haven't seen any opinion that is bannable yet, only ways of expressing it. This is not a traditional imageboards' way, but still the best we can get in runet, with a possible exception of some small boards.
>>118934How is 0chan's thematic any worse?
>>118934D----chan still had not very "kind" threads when I had visited it in 2011. And these were answers to something absolutely usual for boards, I don't remember what.Why its visitors are such assholes?My opinion: you can read this blojek, but you shouldn't write there. This is exhausting.>quiet and kind placeI remember something else.
>>118959Thematic boards (not big ones like /a/ or /vg/) are a completely different story because of smaller size and speed. I even assume there may be decent ones on sosach.[spoiler]Besides, I haven't visited 0chan for quite a lond time. I remember that some thematics used to be nice though.[/spoiler]
