I still can't believe that people actually believe that all avatarfags across 4chan are an "organised coalition of shitposters" out to somehow destroy 4chan.
But hey, since noone can just scroll past stuff they don't like after reporting it if appropriate, maybe it'll work.

What would drive someone to do this shit? I'm really bewildered as to how some people find shitposting this fucking fun. Do they have no other hobbies or some shit.

There was a big shitstorm about it on /g/ and /q/ the other day. From what I've seen, this shit seems to be real.

this is drama for drama's sake.

if we did not know that this was a concerted attack, would we stand around saying "who the fuck is attacking us?".

they released this because they failed. nobody noticed any attack, until they showed us this.

4chan cannot be attacked from outside. our main threat is from within. on every board, we should cast out the mundane and mediocre.

that is the only threat to 4chan. the idiots within.

It was a serious question. Most of those assholes have been around doing the exact same crap for at least two years. Why suddenly does everyone think they are the worst thing on 4chan?
>>
>>278892
People have long thought they are the worst thing on 4chan. They are the reason /mlp/ was created, and the intention failed subsequently, because shitposters gotta shitpost.
>>
>>278892
Because /g/ exposed them the other day, so most people have only recently found out about this.

Wasn't this just some guy's site that was set up to track them?

Guy was trying to help moot. It's not some site to coordinate shitposting - it was tracking them.

There's a pastebin out there that gives all the steam profiles of the ponyfags. You'd be better off trying to get them banned from steam.
>>
>>278880
Not that unbelievable, It's more than likely JIDF trying to destroy anonymous boards because they tend to be bastons of free speech.

All they need to do is destroy the idea of 4chan and people will leave.

Though you'll probably just ignore this like a brain-dead sheep because it conflicts with your world views.

>>278904
Actually, I know for a fact it isn't. One of the groups (the "anime" one, which isn't even in OP's image) is actually an offshoot of the "Alice threads" of over a year ago. And I can assure you the separate groups on /b/ are in no way coordinating together, except in that they're posting stuff they like.

Easier to blame some outside force for your board being shit then it is to blame yourselves.

/v/ for example is more than capable of fucking itself up with threads like
>>>/v/162245628
>>>/v/162247415
>>>/v/162239045

it doesn't need "help" to do this from some "shitposting illuminati".
>>
>>278886

It wasn't an attack, though it was drama.
The idea was to incite drama within conversation threads. It started out as just a tracker for the threads to locate the active ones, then Seff had the idea to archive old ones, in which they would also be sorted by poster. He claimed it was so that people could catch up on past conversations, but it was obvious from the onset that it was just sot hat people within the threads (and without) could go and screencap archives and use them to incite said drama.

>>278895
/g/ exposed nothing. The website isn't even that old.

>>278904
I will concede that furries did this in the past. However, that was not what the site was for this time around. There wasn't even a way to communicate on the website.

It just really annoys me that, for the better part of a year, 4chan was completely trolled by shit posting. Not only did people not learn to ignore obvious shit posting and drive up the problem, the trolls were so successful they were able to affect site policy and set a whole popular tone.

The only people who were punished during this whole thing were the pony threads on /co/, the one place were ponies were supposed to be and did nothing wrong. They werent any better or worse then the other general threads, but were scapegoated into a quarantine board with the /b/ shit posting.

Not that it should be undone. The start of season 3 was just a few days ago and there was hardly a ripple of notice outside of /mlp/, which I'm thankful for. The whole pony drama seems to finally be dying down. Undoing the board or rule 16 would just bring on another new wave of shitposting. The damage is done.

I just hope people will look back on this whole ordeal and know that it was shit posting and boards like /v/ and /b/'s inability to deal with shit posting that was the problem.

That's certainly true, but becoming a personal army requesting retard doesn't exactly elevate you above them.

No you don't. There is already like 50,000 steam groups that are being looked at. I honestly believed it was the /b/ pony bread one when a lot of people confirmed that's where the pony shitposters congregated (That's a fact by the way.) There is no definitive group however.

Anybody that tries to dismiss it was just a "honeypot" are just ignoring the bigger problem that there are idiots wasting time shitposting. Fortunately they stopped when this entire drama was let out.
>>

Yes, there are idiots wasting time shitposting. But going full personal army idiocy on a small handful of genuinely seperate groups just because some retard made up a horribly spelled image based on false assumptions and incorrect information isn't the way to go.

They are not "out to destroy 4chan".

>>279559
Fair enough. Fact remains that they are subverting a restriction that was put in place because of them in the first place.

>>279561
Like how people had scripts to bypass word filters? Or the ones people used to still see post numbers when it was filtered to show as ending in XXX so they could still roll for dubz?
>>
>>279561
Subverting the restriction isn't the issue
Hell, I had the namescript for a while after someone linked me to it
And the site is hardly organised, its more of a gathering place where they can see where shitposting is happening so they can add to it.
>>
>>279564
>word filters
That's different, word filters are just for fun anyway.
>post numbers
Yes, like that. The numbers were replaced with XXX to cut down on GET nonsense, yet people used scripts and did it anyway. Forced anon was put in place to cut down on tripfag circlejerking, yet people use scripts and do it anyway.

I wonder how this site tracked its users though, would be nice if it tracked them with a more permanent means of identification other than IP or trip

By my understanding, it used data from that "NameSync" script that let you still have names/trips on the forced-anon boards.

Still doesn't answer my question...How do you even track someone who's IP has changed? I'm sorry I'm such a noob.

You know, after some time has passed, I can't help but compare /b/ to the Church of Scientology. That group was hit for their "part of us or against us" attitude, and for the reactions.

Circlejerks and ponies are put into a "you're one of us or you're a pony" and any sign of pony fandom (as well as anime, for some) send people off into tangents, and are guaranteed responses.

Its funny how it has all come back full circle.
>>
>>279585

It required you to post while using namesync, and for at least 3 (or was it 5?) others to have done the same in the same thread.
>>
>>279587
Probably because the PC you use to post with also carries some string of numbers that identifies it with 4chans servers

>>279607

I disagree, as a poster from those threads.
I've explained this before, but I contribute to a lot of threads, on a variety of boards. Are there shitposters? Yes, they're in every thread of every board. We would be lying to say that we don't have a few. However, to assume that we are all shitposters is a logical fallacy for those that just want to take the easy way to deal with at least a few shitposters with a viewable result. That is what it comes to - how obvious the results are.

If we could get "banned" text on a variety of threads again, rather than just thread deletions, I think it would start to do the same thing.

Then again, we're trying to moderate what can be rather hard to moderate.
>>
>>279607
Yes, removing those few people would improve a lot.
Just look at /b/ right now -

rolling thread - "weapons" variant
count to 10 and i'll (doesn't fucking matter what)
you laugh you lose
camwhore that isn't delivering - /soc/
foot fetish thread
assassin's creed 3 - /v/ or /vg/
post itt if you're - a virgin
animated gif porn dump - /gif/
furry porn
"friendzone"/"beta" crap
socialising over alcohol thread
"post your reaction faces"

ponies

Removing the ponies and furfags would sure improve that!

>I disagree, as a poster from those threads.

Whatever you say has no merit because you admitted to being a part of those circlejerk shitposting threads.

I don't give a fuck about /b/, it's a shithole anyway.

/b/ will always be bad but getting rid of these faggots will improve the rest of 4chan.

Anything that doesn't contribute to a thread if you are posting in an already made thread.

Raids are still fun, and if you don't do shit when people try to fuck with the site, more people will come here and attack/shit the place up. Let's face it, you niggers have gone soft. Man the fuck up and stop relying on Moot and his shitheaded mods.

DDoSing their site would do nothing since it's a just a stat tracker.

"Their site" is essentially 4chan, so might not be a good idea to DDoS it. Even if you do they will just go to their steam group or stream.

Finding their personal information might work though, i dunno. They seem pretty neckbeardy, not sure they would care.

Bronies are exactly like furries. Every other part of the internet/the media/etc. treats them exactly like furries. The only ones that haven't figured this out is 4chan (or specifically /v/).

/b/ is no longer functioning as it was in 2007 - it cannot provide the mass ridicule needed to keep bronies in line. Nor are they motivated to, since bronies started in part because of /co/ and are thus ostensibly resilient to trolling (although /mlp/ has proven otherwise time and time again).

However, I'm not particularly concerned since /mlp/ is doing its job as a containment board whereas furries still run rampant on /v/ and /b/ due to neglect.
>>
>>279633
>Finding their personal information might work though, i dunno. They seem pretty neckbeardy, not sure they would care.

Whether or not they're "neckbeardy" is irrelevant. The full Encyclopedia Dramatica treatment always works. Other than the shear embarrassment, it assures that they'll be continuously unemployed and thus never be able to post stupid shit here again because they can't afford internet.
>>
>>279630
Also, you're still acting like this is some group from outside 4chan entirely that has only recently made a concerted "attack" against it.

On your last post quote, the animefags do stick to /b/. The fur-avatarfags stick to /b/, the anonymous furfags, who post porn and complain about avatarfags RUININ DERE IMAGE LIMIT do tend to shitpost on other boards.
Couldn't tell you about the brony threads, I find the autism level too high there, compared to the other two.

Also, for the record, the three groups you mentioned tend to not like or interact with eachother much, and I'll explain why.

>I avatarfag in the [blank] threads
>I don't know people in the other thread/s
>the few I've seen, that cross into our threads from one of the other two only come over to shitpost
>form the belief that all of [other] thread is similarly stupid
>never go over there because I think they're stupid and wouldn't know anyone
etc
>>279648
ikr?
I'd be much better off waiting out my bans like a good person for talking at people on a site.
>>
>>279651
explaining the mentality with greentext, I don't necessarily mean myself when I said I.
>>
>>279651

Interesting to note that all of the tripcodes listed on seff's site are now banned.

That'll teach us.

Moot, the threads tracked were, for the most part, self contained threads of users. The tracker was used to locate them, and most people thought the statistics thing was stupid.

What you are doing now, however, is laying the foundation to make people a little disgruntled, which will only encourage shitposting. The act of banning the tripcodes will do nothing to deter us, as most of us were just on /b/ to begin with. Those that went outside will still post anonymously, and avoid the ban.

So, your ban on the tripcodes is a moot point.
>>
>>279658
Shouldn't be abusing tripcodes in the first place.

Follow the rules of the site or go somewhere else.
>>
>>279662
I've seen that said before. How was using a feature meant to give an entirely optional means of self-identification without requiring login, as a means of self-identification, "abusing a feature"?
>>
>>279662

Can survive without, and can easily create another tripcode. They weren't really abused, as the name and trip was only used in one place, to keep up with conversations.
>>
>>279658
Banned on /q/ yes, it's not banned on /b/.
I'm talking to people as we speak.
Although, a lot of them seem technologically impaired and can't change IP.
and what is with saying 'your'?
>>
>>279665
Anonymous image board. You want self-identification then go post on reddit or something.

>>279667
Everyone using tripcodes so that they can recognise eachother is abusing tripcodes. Well i think it is anyway.
>>
>>279668

That was the part of the message to moot.

>>279670

The name still isn't associated elsewhere. Not like we have true anonymity, anyways.
>>
>>279670
Then why even have the tripcode functionality on the site, if using it is grounds for being banned?
>>
>>279670

That was very insightful, gfH4hjZy.
>>
>>279674
You know i could swear i saw a rule about Tripcodes somewhere but i can't find it.

Maybe i was wrong but i thought they were only used to identify certain important individuals in a thread that need to be identified like the OP in a specific thread.
If you want to know everyone that you are talking to why not just chat on steam or something?
>>
>>279679
In retrospect I swear there used to be one too, actually.

And I actually agree with you. I've rarely if ever used one myself, and the one I did use a handful of times is site-wide banned because it got caught in one of the attempts to purge ponies from /b/ when there was still a namefield there.
I've always tried to convince the "anime" circlejerk at least that they should piss off elsewhere if all they want to do is sit around talking about nothing of value amongst themselves.
>>
>>279679

Because I like to talk to monsters on a website for monsters. On steam, others could get involved. /b/ related content should stay on /b/.
>>
Lets get to the point here, not that anything is going to come of any of this.

Is making a thread that people tend to stay in, and talk amongst themselves, really that bad?
It's basically self-containment. The only problem is that people have names so they can recognize eachother, have images to add another element of familiarity that text can't convey.

There is no conspiracy, no leaders, no followers. More liked people, sure, but the person who starts the threads have no power.
They might think they do, but then they're just fucking retarded.
if they are, they shall be laughed at.

Is it because there's no originality or helpful content?
people would be hard pressed to find it elsewhere.
The reason they're not on another site is because they started here, enjoyed it, got passed the gore, the stupidity, the attempt at drama and long dead memes and saw people talking to eachother, and decided to join in.

Personally, the threads are something I keep open and see what's going on. Offer my opinion on something if I feel it necessary.
I post porn in porn threads on occasion, cont. r34 for those with requests, report cp, generally be helpful.

But get banned because I talk with people in specific threads.
So yeah, call it shitposting.
I've been here, I like it. I don't feel like leaving yet.
also yall can suck my dick.

Can you see the effort here? This guy is deeply concerned about 4chan and bronies. Give him the faggot-award.
>>
>>279691
>It's basically self-containment.
Which failed only a few hours ago. They FAILED to keep it to one thread.

I still say the solution is just to get more mods so that the threads can be deleted faster.
>>
>>279703
You mean if you provoke trolls, they'll respond by trolling? Stop the god damned presses.
>>
There's some CP on /pol/.
Mods want to get that
>>>/pol/7240738
>>
>>279705
That...that doesn't follow from what I said at all.
>>
>>279707
Until this shit blew up, I hadn't even seen both ponies and furfags on a page 0 refresh in months. Now they're going nonstop.

Giving a group an outside aggressor to band together against only makes them stick around longer.
>>
>>279701
Then stop acting like a '96 fag.
>>
>>279710

It was when the bans stopped that things died down, for all 3 of the circlejerk threads.

Also, trolls will be trolls. People that aren't ponies will use ponies to troll, because it works. It is an easy way to generate rage, because people reply to it.
>>
>>279710
Ah, I see.

HOWEVER...yeah, more mods and janitors. Shorten the response time for reports. They WILL stop if they can't actually keep their own threads for more than a minute.
>>
>>279713

Wrong. That intensified everything 18 months ago (give or take) when pony and alice threads (as well as fur, a few times) were constantly getting banned. The result? The communities are still there.
>>
>>279712
They sure will.
It wouldn't work so well if the rest of 4chan could calm the fuck down and not fly into an autistic rage at the mere implication of a colourful Flash-animated young horse.

>>279713
Absolutely agree that 4chan needs more mods and janitors. Especially in "off hours".
>>
>>279712
>>279712
>People that aren't ponies will use ponies to troll
>People that aren't ponies
I know what you mean, but I lold
But yes, ponies are literally the easiest thing to troll with on 4chan
Post a pony on /b/ and people will respond

>>279713

>>>/b/436718605

This one's been up for an hour now.
On slower days, which it hasn't been at all since all this shit over a site that links to threads, it'd be 3 or 4 hours, just to get it to max.

This shit has been up for like 2 hours on /v/.

>>>/v/162295160

It's clearly an /an/ raid.
>>
>>279719

Have you looked at that thread? How is that different than any other thread on /b/ right now?
>>
>>279718
If people still possessed the ability to just ignore shit they don't like, or at least to just silently report it and move on, none of this would have happened at all.
>>
>>279726
Looks like a chatroom to me.
Can't they just use a chatroom?

There are dozens of messenger services out there.
>>
>>279726
Nah, shit goes to fast for me to even care about the animefag threads.
>>279727
The problem is a lot probably do, it's only the ones that don't that you see.
vocal minority
>>
Anyone who didn't bother reading that shitfest will be interested to know, even the anime avatarfags are opposed to this "Seff" person's little website now.
>>
>>279738

We were from the start.
>>
>>279738
Quite a few had problems with it, and Seff kept tweaking it and tweaking it.
>>
>>279740
I only used it to get to threads cause it was slightly more useful than getting on 4chan browser and looking for 3 to 5 seconds.
I wasn't even aware there was one of these list things.
>>
>>279747

The list was created like, last week.
>>
>>279749
still don't see how linking people to threads means it's organized.
>>
>>279753
From my understanding, it's because "as a joke" this "Seff" changed the headers on the tallies of each person's posts to things like "number of shitposts".

We're not an organised group deliberately shitting up 4chan. We never have been. That site pertains only to 4chan, and we all (usually) just keep to our own threads and leave everybody else alone.

And the "shitposts" and "shittier posts" thing WAS a joke.

It's a good site [random animu circlejerker here], even if you don't get it.

The site had a good purpose at first - it helped people find the threads easier, it saved the images we posted, and it also acted as a decent topic of conversation. It also acted as an archive. Or was going to.

Sure, things went a little sour (to some, I liked the lulz it generated), but those goals are mostly intact... even if they've been halted for now.

it's the same

he's a known member of their order

it can't just be circle jerks; all forms of their cancer must be purged including image dumping
>>
>>280101
>>280089

He is listed because he used the userscript of /b/ name sync. That is all that was required to end up on that list.
>>
>>280107
does it change anything? if he's not with us he's with them, he needs to be purged

There's no /b/ related discussion going on in those threads; dumps are just as cancerous

I'm sorry if you like that guy, but we can't start making exceptions our resolute must be crystal clear
>>
>>280116

The black and white scenario of "with us or against us" doesn't really get you that far.

Also note that those tripcodes are only banned outside of /b/. They can still be used with namesync and no ban will be given.
>>
>>280120
so that's the plan we just surrender /b/ to them? These guys move slow but they're relentless, if we give them any ground their just gonna creep into the other threads. It might take years, but they'll do it
>>
>>280123
*other boards

they already raid and "takeover" other threads
>>
>>280123

The main time that people creep into other threads are when there are reactions like the one being displayed now.

The best part is, it usually isn't even those from said threads, but those that save the images in order to troll others and lay the blame elsewhere.

Quit being so easily trolled and learn to hide threads you don't like, and there goes the problem.

It isn't what you think it is. It is a community that likes to discuss things with each other.

Also, those are trolls that do that to multiple boards.

The people listed on Seff's site have all been hit with a "ban evasion" ban on their tripcodes, which it a lot of people that have never done so.

Tripfagging on a forced anon board is a pretty clear violation of the rules.
There are tripfags on boards like /x/ that don't get banned, or for that matter even hated on that much.

Suck it, tripfags.

I dont think trolling is a bad thing, but all those threads lack any sort of creativity. Its like circlejerking for the unimaginitive. That being said, I just hide them like any other shit thread i dont care to read (most of them).

Although, I wouldnt mind fucking with these nerds, for the lelz.
