Every user should read this. And if you're looking for a blast from the past, check out the archived news posts.

/q/ is now open for business, and has already sparked a number of great discussions and changes to the site. Here's one on why 4chan doesn't accept donations and what you can do to support the site.

Very simple suggestion:

Just rename /a/ to Animu & Mango and /v/ to The Vidya again. Not sure about other boards.
>>
Somewhat unrelated:

There should be a way to link to the ruels and the faq:

>>>/rules/
>>>/faq/

Also they should be in the brackets along with status, /q/ and @.
>>
No. They both sound fucking dumb.
>>
>>91324
*to the rules
>>
>>91335
>not liking The Vidya
>>
I agree with this.

Animu, mango and vidya are undeniably part of the lexicon of those two boards.
>>
Upvote.
>>
>>91454
Thanks brah
>>
Come one, just give us the names back already
>>
/sp/ to become /sp/ - Shitposting.
>>
And the 'a' in /a/ needs to be upside down, or it doesn't work.
>>
>>91324
This

Fucking muting
>>
Shit, I just realized it wasn't anymore. When the fuck did that happen?
>>
>>92130
end of 2010

>>91324
yes please
>>
I throw my support behind this idea.
>>
>>91256
Why not autism & asperger's.
>>
>>91335
It's not about sounding dumb.
It's about what pops up first when you type "anime manga" or "video games" in google.
This obviously brings tons of unwanted, underage posters to the boards, which the regular users do not want.
>>
>>91324
Good idea.
Does this work:
>>>status

I second these motions.

C'mon mooty.
>>
Wow, how did I forget /v/ used to be The Vidya.
>>
Bump for all to see.
>>
Bumping again.
Mute mute mute
>>
>>92498
I'm in favor of changing the names back, for nostalgia's sake, but that's complete bullshit. Searching "video games" on google doesn't bring up shit about /v/, and "anime manga" brings us /a/ on the second page. "anime and manga" doesn't even get a hit. It's just a part of the board's culture.
>>
>>92498
muh sekrit club
>>
>>93013
His idea does not work as >>92994
explains, but there's ntohing wrong with not wanting to invite children and other idiots.

Why would anybody think that 4chan would benefit from even more new underage users who probably don't even lurk?
>>
>>93033
The idea of "people who use Google" being a crowd /a/ or /v/ doesn't want on their board is retarded.
>>
>>93096
That's right, but I was talking about the general situation.
>>
You have my support, bump
>>
>>91324

But this in a separate thread someone, Moots unlikely to look in here
>>
Yeah, I miss The Vidya.

>>91825
/sp/ - Spergin'.

>>92130
Last time moot reverted the board from HARMONY (or whatever it was).

Both good ideas, supported

/sp/ can be whatever moot feels like at the moment

I kinda miss my upside down /a/, too.

10/10 post. Would read again, typos and everything. Is this even possible?

Bring back the Code Geass.

That language is unkind.
>>
>>93488
>>93480
Perhaps manga mongo-related?

But to be honest I don't think anyone except me remembers that.
>>
>>93480

Animu and mango are purposeful mispronunciations used to annoy the really autistic weeaboos.

Not sure about vidya though.
>>
>>93508

That one's been around for a while. I remember calling them "vidya games" back in the 90's.
>>
>>93522
Can't believe that you really said that
>>
>>91256
/a/: Cartoons and comics
/v/: Gay men
>>
All the various board names /v/ has had did nothing but invite /b/ and shitposting into it.

Fuck off.
>>
>>93710
Are you dumb? The Vidya did not invite any /b/tards, that's Fucking retarded. This jimmies, harmony etc. shit is partly responsible for this.
Your post makes no sense.
>>
>>91324
You should be able to link to sections, too. Like so:
>>>/rules/a/

How about this?

manga is not a and has been the cancer killing a for awhile. its only a matter of time before manga is removed from a when moot sees all these threads about it.

why don't you stop shitting up threads with this? It's not true, and manga are discussed on /a/ all the time.
>>
YES

YES

PLEASE

YES
>>
>>91324
This is actually a really good idea.
>>
>>93033
Not all new users are underage or idiots.

Thats /b/ thinking right there.
>>
I need this
>>
>>96330
seconding we should remove manga from /a/
>>
Bumping again.
Fucking muting
>>
/co/ -where cartoons and comics collide

i didn't even notice /a/ had changed back to anime and manga until like a week ago.
>>
>>93689
VIDHJA GAEMS
>>
Come on moot, most people want these names back.
>>
+1 to The Vidya
>>
>>97566
id like to see more vidya on /a/ since many video games are where anime comes from,
>>
Bring back animu and mango moot, I'll give you cookies
>>
rename /sp/ "Yuroland"
>>
Bumping again
1234567890
>>
>>91324

if you're going to do that, go all out:

>>>/rules/global/4
>>>/rules/v/2

Though that is kind of a lot of work just so people can give shitposters more attention.
>>
>>98464
That's the only way that would make sense
>>
best way to fix a is to remove the manga which many have suggested and moot has commented on, soon there will be a manga board since it does not and never did belong in /a/
>>
>>98521
I don't think the last split helped much. Besides /a/ is still quite decent, so why even bother trying to fix something?
>>
>>98562
well i agree /a/ is better but manga has been dsetroying /a/ for sometime since its not related but the mod wont delete them because the mod is not around all the time and why manga should result in an autoban sitewide to curb this cancer.
>>
Sounds good
How about "/mu/ - Feels"?
>>
>>98665
But The Vidya and Animu and Mango have been the names of /v/ and /a/ for a long time. I know you're joking, but I'd say a good portion of users actually want these names back.
>>
File: 1345067148116.jpg-(72 KB, 445x445, Feels.jpg)
72 KB
>>98693
Oh, but I'm serious.
I have nothing against those names, I mean I like to think of /v/ as the Vidya (even if I never go there), but Feels would be a much more accurate description of /mu/ and there doesn't seem to be any action taken against the shitposting.
And Feels is my favorite Animal Collective album.
>>
>/a/ - Animu & Mango
>not [a/ - Animu & Mango
Get it together, OP.
>>
Oh shit, I just realized we aren't "The Vidya" anymore.
When the hell did this happen?
>>
>>98716
Just because nobody takes action doesn't mean the board title should support it, that's like giving in completely.
>>
>>98758
But /mu/ has given in.
Most people like feel and tripfag circlejerk threads, I mean actual music threads are just like one in five and many of them just get a couple of replys.
The only way to change that is to take action against shitposting and make shitposters go somewhere else, because they're obviously not interested in music.
>>
>>98783
That's like renaming /v/ to /b/2.0
You don't do that shit
>>
>>98846
There's a difference.
Shitposting threads are a minority (i think) on /v/, and people sage and are generally against them.
Shitposting on /mu/ is 100% accepted by almost everyone on the board, and seems to be the only reason most people even go there.
So you either accept the board is lost, or do something about it, and if you try to browse /mu/ you realize that you're going to hit the report limit before you've reached the end of the first page, and not a single janitor will do anything about it.
>>
What about /v/ - "El Vidyo"? I enjoyed that one as well.
>>
>>98904
Either that or Vidya, both are equally good.

>>98892
But if you accept it there's no chance to imrpove the board with stricter moderation etc. because the name gives everyone the justification to continue their shit.
>>
>>98931
They will continue and why not let them? There's no reason pretending there's a music board on this site when there's obviously not.
If the moderators don't want to do anything about it (they obviously don't, it's not like its a new problem) and the users just wants shitposting, what's the point of a music board?
>>
>>98976
Well, that's the point, then go complain about lacking moderation and shit. It somewhat helped a bit with /v/ already.
>>
>>99045
I think I've posted a thread about it every day since /q/ started and nothing happens.

"your post is rude :( " - i miss that, even if it's not needed.

I strongly support OPs idea
>>
>>91256
I was thinking about posting this. Missin the old /a/ name.
>>
>>99215
Butthurt isn't banned anymore on /v/. In fact that has been lifted quite a while ago as far as I know.
>>
Bumping, fucking script
>>
God I hate you retards who want /a/ to be changed back to "Animu and Mango". Guess what, before it was Animu and Mango and most likely before you started posting on /a/, it was Anime and Manga. Moot changed it and then left it and we wanted it changed back for nostalgia's sake. And you retards, who have only ever known it as "Animu and Mango" want it changed back for your nostalgia when we pined for so long to have it back to its original. No, fuck you.

I do, however, support /a/'s name to be changed to "Baka Gaijins"
>>
>>99711
Who ever acted like this was its original name?
>>
I could swear /a/ was named Animu and Mango last week. When did it change?
>>
>>99735
No one. But for you all, it is the original name, even if you know it never was. You all disgust me.
>>
>>99770
Ok brah, I just liked the name, has nothing to do with nostalgia or somehting like that.
>>
>>99770
Well your face is stupid. Animu and Mango is a great board name, no one cares about what it used to be. Having a unique board name makes us a UNIQUE AND SPECIAL SNOWFLAKE.

Bump
