Fucking hell, I'm only 40% down the catalog and I'm already tired. Reporting threads doesn't do shit anymore because mods never DO A FUCKING THING.

>>634330
for sagebombing/flooding the dick size thread, go ahead and look (its in the links).

theres one mad faggot (OP) calling me mad over and over again, you can see the replies he links to are dead

i agree 100% but you have to remember, we get a lot of shit posters from /r9k/ and /b/ and /pol/, and they love to argue endlessly about height and dicks and race and anything not health related. moot doesn't care about /fit/ having shit posts because it brings in traffic.
plus all those fucking feel threads always hit post limit, even though they're all circle jerks. i'm so sick of it.

I'm sick of it, too.

I report every thread like these, and nothing ever happens. Its like /fa/, except 10 times the amount of traffic.

I'm so fucking sick of it, yet nothing gets done.

Make a PUA (pick up artist) board and /fit/ would be a-ok. Most of the shit posting is based on lady problems.

Seriously - not to mention the fucking flood of Nazi threads over the past few days. It's 99% shitposting and 1% actual content.

i remember when i actually learned shit about getting stronger and in better shape. now it's just shitposting and muh /fit/ culture 24/7.

http://archive.heinessen.com/fit/thread/20540957#p20541537

fuck you fag
stop shitting up the boards with you're inane spam

>>634391
i love how mods will delete his spam and give him a ban, but they won't delete the fucking thread.
really says something about these shitty fucking mods.

>>634383
>what is /adv/

Seriously, I wonder how dead /adv/ is now that everyone comes to /fit/ for their girl problems and baaaww threads.

>>634379
>>634385
/pol/ and /r9k/ need to stay in their own boards. Moot brought their damn boards back, so why can't they post their garbage there?

>>634379
Honestly I don't mind the feel threads that much as long as they're contained. They're pretty ingrained in board culture, but there's a difference between having a feels thread now and then and having dozens of them clogging the board.

Also, I just went back over to /fit/ and there's literally four "manlet" threads on the first page. Fucking idiotic.

>>634391
There was a reason your thread was spammed, idiot. Take your daily ''troll'' threads to /r9k/ if you really NEED to make them.

>>634398
No, I hear you, but PUA is a shitty buzzword and everyone'd probably get all excited about it.

>>634406
>Honestly I don't mind the feel threads that much as long as they're contained

It's /r9k/ material, but I suppose ONE daily ''general'' thread would be better than 5 or 6 floating around.

Fucking profession threads need to go too. It literally has no basis to health and fitness

>>634417
Yeah, I get why other people don't like them, for sure - I'm just saying I don't think they're the biggest problem. I think the flooding of feel threads, as well as the constant shitposting by stormfront chucklefucks, the ever-increasing numbers of "manlet" threads and dick size threads, and a complete lack of oversight/moderation are all far bigger problems.

The funny thing was the first time I saw that feel shit here on 4chan, I fucking said out loud "/v/ is going to eat this shit up like there's no tommorrow" and guess which shithole spammed the hell out of it.
One of the many instances where moot could've bit this shit in the butt at the start by wordfilter banning it.

>>634431
I don't remember foreveralone being this obnoxious. We always had a daily ''Why don't you have a girlfriend?'' thread too, but the number was much much less.

So how in the hell are we gonna fix this shit?

>>634435
shit, I'll moderate it. I bet OP would, too.

>>634439
I'd also be happy to mod. I don't get what makes the rules so difficult to enforce.

>>634435
We wait for mods/moot to reply and see what happens.

>>634439
>>634441
I really don't care who does it as long as we get an active mod.

A janitor would be fine too.

>>634528
I haven't seen mods or mootles often reply to mod complaints though i cant be sure since I don't get on /q/ often but i cant say.Just need an email to moot just to be safe

>>634537
There was just a thread with mod and moot replies about some spam on /a/.

OP said something like, ''janitor is protecting this daily viral spam'' or w/e. They ended up fixing the issue.

>>634538
What about shitposting or lack of mod activity?
pretty much the point of this thread.Either lets keep this thread alive to increase awareness

>>634539
From what I've seen, threads on /q/ stick around forever. Let's just bump it every 30-60 minutes.

I'll remake these threads everyday if we don't get it fixed.

Yes, please for the love of God, help improve /fit/

I'll admit admit I started shit or two because it funny but I'm more than happy to give that up for legit /fit/ discussion.
I don't know why the fucking mods won't do their fucking job on there.

I fucking hate the stupid shit posted on /fit/ daily that you would never ever see on other boards (like /o/ for example).
The difference? The fucking mods.

IMO it is probably why people leave /fit after enough time. You dig through the BS to find the knowledgeable members who are on their way out. As you gain their knowledge for your own you realize there is not much left to do besides wade through a monstrous amount of kiddies who think they are masta trolls. The dick, height and other shit threads started off as trolls to the public. Then they became trolls to people who knew they were trolling. Then those got trolled. The trolling just goes up the ladder until its straight up spam.

The list of shit threads posted there is just an average sample. It is like that 24/7.

>>634379
>>634380
>>634383
The feels and sexual frustration almost overwhelm the fitness aspect of the board. It would be fine (or even **APPRECIATED**) in moderation since much of "fitness" involves restructuring of one's life. Many /fit/izens are rather desperate people seeking fundamental changes in their lives and need community support.

However, at current levels it erodes the ability of the boards to actually promote fitness. The ratio of needy, formless sludge to wise, successful elder statesmen is hideously skewed. Janitorial work would be appreciated.

Also, the guys who truly change their life and get ripped over the course of 3 years eventually leave the board (good for them?). Fitness has a way of sending people to failure or solitary bliss. It may be pathological that the board is plagued by n00bs.

thats weird, I sage bomb and spam the shit out of all the unrelated /fit/ threads, and I never get banned. Also, It kills the thread, so I save /fit/.

>>634347
>>634359
I thought originally that most of the shitposting on /fit/ was either ironic or humor that everybody got and just went along with.
Also, I think it's hilarious how many underage people we have, just browsing CBTs and Survey threads.

>>634549
>Fitness has a way of sending people to failure or solitary bliss.
Why do you believe this happens? Because of the nature of getting /fit or because of shit posting?

People who received help to become emotionally, mentally, and physically improved want to give back to the community that helped made them so. But here at /fit we have the opposite! A desire to forever leave the shithole we crawled out of.

since people on /fi/t care, i will continue to sage bomb spam troll/unrelated threads until they die.

>>634547
>I'll admit admit I started shit or two because it funny
See? When shitposting is encouraged as ''board culture'' and is the majority of threads, decent people like you end up joining in too.

It's really hard to give a fuck when everyone else is shitposting. Don't worry anon, you posted here and that's a step forward.

>>634548
I miss Quad. Some of the crazier guys like Uzeeh and Trycrypt were great too (in their own weird way).

I just don't understand how FEMINAZI/height/dick trolling can be fun. It's the same shit over and over again everyday.

>>634553
I wouldn't be surprised. Whenever I read momscience/dadscience threads it's full of 14 year olds with ''evil'' parents who won't buy them noEXPLODE or the latest BS supplement.

Still, the majority of fitness enthusiasts are often just awkward high school kids from /v/ or /r9k/ who think they'll finally get popular once they get ripped like the jocks.

Jesus christ, I only went to /fit/ to look and bookmark the sticky's links. I never thought it would be this bad.

>>634554
>want to give back
The timescales for "making it" are very, very long compared to most human affairs. The act of getting fit itself, will separate the wheat from the chaff. And then who needs an imageboard for anything?

It's like what they say about secrets in politics: those who talk don't know and those who know don't talk.

/fit/ is dead. I'm sorry, but it's true. Feelfags killed it. It's become impossible to find quality content because of the amount of shit you have to shovel through. I suggest looking at other boards (/g/, for instance) for interests and entertainment, and go to BB for all your fit needs.

>>634560
That's really the main problem with this board though: We attract people who try to make up for social ineptitude with an appearance. Of course, we all love to be dazzled, but an appearance can only get someone so far. It's funny; the majority of the board claims not to lift for girls, but that's what they do it for. There's really no point in lying to yourself.

Do "Questions that don't deserve their own thread" threads fall under this? They are quite helpful.

Also, its a HEALTH and fitness board, so I assume you could ask about medical problems right?

>>634575
Most of those questions deserve threads, which would block out the troll threads.

>>634575
QTDDTOT's: Okay
MEDICAL problems: Okay

Its when faggots start bending it like "but my gf problems fall into medical problems! pls help" and 280 replies. click here to view

>>634573
/g/ is great.

>>634575
Yes, but don't go posting dick threads claiming it's ''sexual health'' and archeology threads claiming that getting laid will ease your poor mental health

>>634576
>>634578
Well that's great. I love those threads.

Also, does global rule 2 not apply on /fit/ or something? I've been seeing an increase of underage over the past few weeks.

>>634582
It does. Trolls/retards like spouting the ''sfw boards aren't 18+'' are faggots.

Why admit you are underage anyways? No point.

>>634582
I've always just assumed that if you were underage you should just stick to honest questions and lurk.
Also, why would you admit to being underage?

Completely agree with this thread. Current /fit/ is nothing but losers talking about how to talk to girls and circlejerking over their 3 month progress. The board in a nutshell right now is

>hey guys help me text this girl

>autism

I've been browsing /fit/ since day 1 and the offtopic threads are what makes the board great, especially when they relate in some way to self-improvement. You will want to discuss feels and girls with bros of a similar positive mindset and lifting mentality, rather than on /r9k/ or wherever where you'll just get basement-dwelling autists who never leave their mom's house.

itd also be nice if you removed repeating numbers from fit, because this >>20555555 will have over 300 posts because of luck, not content and its retarded

>>635148

but /fit/ IS /r9k/ now. A bunch of basement neckbeards/high school kids who are socially retarded and have been lifting for 5 months tops. They're a bunch of faggots who ask about what to text a fucking girl all the time, and then come and cry for help with their relationship issues

I don't want to fucking discuss anything with all those shitposters. I can't relate at all to the people that browse the board nowadays. The mirin stories? A bunch of aspies 3 months into lifting who think every woman and child mires them now, and their shitty stories always end up how they sperged out on the spot

Self improvement? "Hey guise fat fuck/skinny skeleton here help me get in shape. BTW I didn't read the sticky lol thanks". They're the type of fuckers that come to the board and stick to lifting for a few months and then fucking quit, and in the meantime they shit up the board with all their "lmao dubs generals" and feel threads

There's barely any OC on the board. We have 50 threads every day complaining about fat people. The board always hated how fatties tried to excuse themselves but now it's become some sort of tumblr squad that does nothing but whine all day about how fat people are the devil. The /fit/ humor threads are reposts from 3 years ago, and the beta threads are shit taken directly from /b/. The board is a shithole

>>635148
>self-improvement.
>positive mindset

Loser blogging about "tfw no gf" is pretty much the opposite of a "positive mindset". If you don't see this, you must be severely impaired in your ability to recognize and appropriately categorize other people's emotions.

>>635158
>>635160
I guess I don't browse /fit/ as often as I used to, maybe you're right in some ways. But I'm of the attitude that "/fit/ has always been shit" in that we've had the same complaints about shitposting since the board was made. Three years ago we had the exact same complaints about shitposters, people not reading the sticky, offtopic threads, etc. A lot of the good posters on the board left for Fitocracy, but it seems to have gotten shittier recently for some reason.

>>635148
This a million times I am a /fit/ and /sp/ and it is what we want

No one understands this

>>635189

But /fit/ is for Fitness.
Not relationship advice/discussion.

That's like /co/ saying they want to discuss anime with their /co/mrades instead of /a/.

It is what it is and there's nothing you can do about it.

OP here back again.

Seeing these faggots justify their shitposting is hilarious.

if you expect to get serious health or fitness advice from /fit/, which has neither doctors nor actual strength coaches, you are a fucking idiot.

/fit/ is the locker room on the internet, where we ask for tips about women, discuss dick size, make fun of manlets and ocasionally talk about fitness.

Just need some Janitors to keep the numbers of these threads down. I don't see the problem if there's one or two off-topic threads going but get a little mad when there's 4 nogf/feel threads going at once.I'd be happy to Janitor but tbh I have no idea how to apply. I might look into it though.

>>635205

Absolutely not. There were always feel threads and twfnogf threads but there was always a good amount of legit /fit/ discussion.
Now? It's a fucking surprise if you even see a /fit/ related topic that isn't answered by the sticky.

I'm so sick of this shit

>>635209

pls go away. It'll be fine without you, trust me.

>>634439
i volunteer as well

Sure, there's a point where a lot of these useless threads could be deleted. I've been a frequent /fit/ browser since it was first initiated onto 4chan, and i'm also a fellow miscer. I'll say though, it certainly has changed and it's incredibly evident that the board is comprised of many kids. You can tell by post quality and well, shit, look through the current body threads. They're all a bunch of skinny looking 13 year olds. It just isn't the same as the old /fit/. I'll admit, the "old" /fit/ had it's shitposting, but I feel like we were all a lot closer with each other and the shit posting was still pretty relevant to board culture/gym culture, but now it has gotten way out of hand. /fit/ is literally /b/ now, and it's a fucking shame.

>>635207

That is the kind of mentality that's making it shit though.

>tips about women
Not related to /fit/

>discuss dick size
Not related to /fit/ as well unless you really stretch the definition

>make fun of manlets
Bunch of insecure faggots talking themselves up is not /fit/ discussion as well.

op im with you, but i dont really know what to say. i tried to pester moot about this exact issue when he was doing the q&a a few weeks ago but he ignored me. he literally answered the post directly after mine and it was a stupid brony post talking about cartoon animals or some shit. so then since it was obvious that moot only cares about posts about horses i made a few more posts about the state of /fit/ of myself shirtless wearing a horse mask to try to get his attention and he still ignored me. in fact, theyre still up:

>>595620 →
>>596502 →

moot doesnt care about us. we're forgotten soldiers lost in a dark world of feelthreads.

>>635266
People don't know about that shit. At least most people on /fit/ won't. The main problem now is that there are too much shitposters on /fit/, such that legit threads just fall to page 10 immediately.
I think the ID option would work well on /fit/, you can spot shitposters easier.
Stricter mods/janitors. A better FAQ/Sticky (not just links), because everyday a thread about APT/Kyphosis/Forward head isn't needed. And better routine information in the faq, since SS/SL isn't for everyone.

Wish I knew if this was real or fake. Never heard moot say something like that ever. Seems like a humble dude

/s4s/ is higher quality than /fit/ could have hope to be. Who are you quoted.

Mods, please listen to OP.

>>634406
There never ZERO feel threads on /fit/ four years ago. The board community was all about body building and healthy lifestyles, and shitposting was almost non-existent

Totally with you on this one OP.

Sick of seeing countless feels threads and height threads.

What the fuck? My thread on /fit/ just 404'd. Good job, janitors. Real fucking great job. Faggots.

>>635268
>no homo threads

Even that went too far. Originally it was subtle and funny, but now the new kiddies add ''NO HOMO LEL'' to anything just to make it sound funny.

My 2 cents:
A forum or an imageboard is a living thing, shaped by the posts of its users.
/fit/ is the way it is because its regulars are interested in the topics that are posted.
If mods were to strictly enforce the board rules so that the content is altered from the regulars' interests,
most people will move on and the board will die.
It's naive to ask for more censorship and/or moderation, in order to only see the threads you want to see.
If the content is not to your liking, _make_ threads on topics that _you_ find interesting and ignore the rest.

PS: There is no need to attention whore on q with "MUH SECRIT FIGHT CLUB IS RUIN"

>>635292
I don't agree with you on the ID's because a ban can take care of that shit but I agree with the rest of the stuff you said.

We need a better sticky, something with info about all the things that are asked about on /fit/ on a daily basis. Maybe even a wiki with FAQ's done by some of the better tripfags. I'm tired about seeing questions about Creatine, Yohimbine, ECA, and routines on a daily basis.

But the problem will still remain with the idiots who shitpost multiple times a day because asking for routine because they think they are too special to read the sticky.

http://archive.foolz.us/q/thread/522505/#526013

Moot is aware of the problem and he has given up on /fit/. The board is left to the feel shitposters. Time for all of us to abandon the sinking ship.

OP, you've just motivated me to start saging unrelated /fit/-threads.

>>635307
>Time for all of us to abandon the sinking ship.
i've been thinking this for an entire month

should I just delete the bookmark?

RIP /fit/

>>635292
ID would be glorious. It would finally stop people from taking over someone that knows their shit.

How many times a day do you see "That other guy wasn't me" or "Not who you are responding to"?

I see it and type it constantly.

As for a new sticky, I have fitsticky.com that I am more than willing to put the sticky on and make something like thefaggotstore that /fa/ has, but moot never replied to my email if he would sticky it or not.

>>635308
That's nice, but one or two people won't be able to do shit. Take a look at /g/ or /a/ and you'll see feel shit or anything close that that filled with sage.

Sage isn't a downvote, I know. But when people see a shitpost thread filled with 10 sages and only 1 legit reply? They'll ignore it and it'll die.

We just need more people dedicated to the cause. I suppose we could always pick a shitpost thread from the catalog and sage it to death from here, but that would be tedious in the long run.

>>635306
Well, but if you are putting so much info in the faq, what would be the reason of the board? I guess this is one of the reasons it has gone to shit, since a lot of questions would be redirected to the sticky, and the only threads that would survive are shitposts.

>>635305
this

if there are threads you don't like, you can simply skip past them

>>634250 (OP)
Go ahead and keep crying like a little bitch.

I hope they bring in 100 mods to clean the board up that way I can laugh when moot puts up a note that he took down /fit/ because it gets less hits than the papercraft board.

If you take away the culture of /fit/ you will be lucky to get 25 posts a day. There will be threads that are well over 3 weeks old. It will become a ghost board.

Then you can whine yourself over to bodybuilding forum and proceed to destroy it.

Fuck off

This is LITERALLY fucking spam now. What is wrong with /fit/?

>>635268
Me again.
I think almost anything is fine in moderation, but it becomes shitposting to me when it's just tons of feel thread and "subtle" no homo threads all over everything and the actual information gets buried.

Wait, why are there literally FOUR current body threads on /fit/ front page?

>>>20558187
>>>20557138
>>>20554266
>>>20556398

>>635305
I'd rather see it die, than let it continue being a shithole.
There's a reason why there are several boards, it's because it's supposed to related to the topic of the board. Therefore we need to moderate the boards to keep it in line with the topic, or else we might aswell just have 1 huge-ass board with lots of random threads.
Sorry for bad Engrish

>>635305
>If the content is not to your liking, _make_ threads on topics that _you_ find interesting and ignore the rest.

Have you ever tried making anything related to fitness that's more advanced than SS vs Split on /fit? You get 3 replies and it dies because everybody is too busy spamming bullshit tfwnogf and manlet threads.

eh, i've been on fit for like, 2 years now, on and off. its gotten worse, but im not sure whether that's more of a question of board culture growing in a certain way or just more people posting "epic trole :D:D" threads.
either way, the board could do with some janitoring, there's no need to post daily "ass and vagoo" shit, that's just beyond pointless.
otherwise i think dubs are hilarious, especially the shoops, but that's just my opinion, and in moderation
it'd be great if moot would look into it, or at least some mods?

Agree with you OP. It also seems that Fat People stories are completely gone and no one appreciates a good dubs/trips/quads/etc. nowadays.

lol Moot has been replying to everything on the first page, yet ignored this.

>>635328
/fit/ it's not your board to decide what happens to it, you can only control your own posts.
the posts currently on /fit/ are related to the /fit/izens' interests.
the board's rules should change to serve the posters not the opposite.

>>635329
Yes, nutrition, meditation, cardio, myo-reps.
But even if I never managed to get replies or long threads, I'd never try to force people to reply to me.
If people aren't interested in what I post, I'll get shit/uneducated responses anyway.

>>635336
>and no one appreciates a good dubs/trips/quads/etc. nowadays.
what what _is_ with that, like they're not on that often I think

/fit/ really is dying. These days I spend hours scrolling through pages just to find one legitimate thread about health or fitness. It's a damn shame, I really liked /fit/.

I guess a lot of people who start lifting have some serious emotional issues - I can't really find a different explanation for all the fucking feelthreads lately.

>>635345
the same thing happens EVERY YEAR, its called "summer"

things will be back to normal by august, until january when it gets flooded with NYRfags.

I have observed this every year since /fit/ was created.

>>635347
>summer
implying high school fags can't post from their phones 24/7 regardless of season

>>635348
>newfag

people want to get abs4summer, get ripped quick for the beach, etc, etc, it is nothing to do with people being in school

>>635351
Yet you hear ''summer'' in every other board

>>635347
how do you call it when it's all year round?

>>635339
Bitch if you wanna leave, leave, let us circle jerk about fitness while you brag about your biceps size.

>>635353
In every other board summer has to do with the influx of high school/college kids being on summer vacation and having nothing to do.

On /fit/ it has to do with your average fatass /b/tard or any other fatass coming on /fit/ asking how they can lose x amount of weight by June something or July something. Or asking how they can look aesthetic in a small time period.

It's not only the influx of the vacation summerfags, but your average neckbeard wanting to get /fit/ for summer to get them grills.

>>635357
I think you missed the point of my post entirely.

>>635353
I'm right, get over it

how long does it take for a mod to answer this shit?

>>635375

They usually read them and respond accordingly. Here's what's going to happen, people are going to complain about the changing nature of the board, things are going to get real strict, and people are going to no longer have fun. However, it'll be on topic, but not much better. The discussion will be angry, troll filled, and probably occur in a general. (manlet progress general, progress general, what did you eat today?)

It's happened to /co/ /sp/ and /tv/. Get ready for eternal butthurt threads on /q/ for a while.

>>635375
You didn't see all the shit threads get deleted?

>>635377
It happened to /fit/ already too back in early 2012 or whenever they added a bunch of janitors. Either that or gingermod was having a bad week. Bans were handed out like candy. Even replying to a manlet thread, facial aesthetics thread, would land you a 3 day.

Just think without all the shitposting on /fit/ we would have never of had Zyzz or Scooby

>>635384

Usually when the board is at its shittiest it tends to form an identity, /v/ with jimmies and REV UP, /sp/ with lel and costanza, etc. Bite the pillow, mods are going in dry

without some of the off topic and shit posts /fit/ will be extremely boring

I dion't want to go there and tell people to read the sticky in every thread, cuz that's what it's gonna look lke then

they should make me a janitor, I know where to draw the line between having fun and shitposting

>>635339
>the posts currently on /fit/ are related to the /fit/izens' interests.

Nah. It's the interests of people who aren't really interested in fitness beyond showing their body, talking about SS and steroids. If they don't want to talk about fitness related things they could easily make their off topic shitposting on /b/, /r9k/, /adv/, /soc/ but they choose not to.

The board is health and fitness, not health, fitness and anything else you find interesting

>>635386
>I dion't want to go there and tell people to read the sticky in every thread, cuz that's what it's gonna look lke then

Or janitors could just delete those fucking threads. Just like /a/ with it's recommendation threads.

>they should make me a janitor
And that's why you're not a janitor. You are bias and a fucking retard.

We need to make an example by reporting and saging threads like these:

>>>/fit/20559867

1. You have been visited by the gay le epic maymay of stupid. Spam thankyou in this thread and bump away other good ones or all I'll kill you etc.
2.Anything relating or pertaining to fucking /pol/
3. Height threads
4. Penis length threads
5. Beta threads
6. Alpha threads
7. I'm texting this girl and
8. Any online dating thread
9. Anything that is explicitly and completely answered in the sticky
10. tfwnogf and other related feels

I still lift.. just got back from the gym actually.

/fit/ has gotten pretty big, and the userbase has gotten a lot worse. Best advice is to keep reporting & hiding things - I'll also see if we can find some more janitors, but it won't "fix" /fit/.. we need a sea change in the way people post.

I had a 5 month sinus infection and started taking mandarin lessons, so barely lifted (like 1x a week) because I always felt like shit. Then I got better, decided I'd just do what I used to incline dumbbell bench before my sinus infection, and promptly injured my shoulder.

Just now getting fully recovered from that injury, but need to cut. Ask me about progress next year.

>>635534
Good luck with your cut and gains. Be prepared, I will post a thread exactly one year from today.
