On Sunday we rolled out new HTML for 4chan's imageboards. The new code validates HTML5/CSS3, the design should appear exactly the same, pages should load slightly faster (especially long threads), and extension/user script/archive developers should have a much easier job parsing our pages. This is the first time in approximately ten years that it has been updated.

If you are using an extension or app that has not been updated for the changes, some features may not work—you will need to wait for the developer to update their extension/app to be compatible with the new HTML. If you haven't downloaded it already, try the Official 4chan Chrome Extension.

The most significant changes with the new HTML are a new mobile-optimized layout for phones, and inline extension features. Check them out by clicking [Settings] in the upper-right (make sure you don't select features that conflict with those from an extension though), or visit 4chan from your phone!

We are still working through a few bugs with the new code. Please report any bugs you find to newhtml@4chan.org.

Because there aren't already a million #chan knockoffs as it is.

The only reason 4chan is worth a damn, and the only reason /v/ is worth a damn, is because it has high traffic. Threads get posted in within seconds by dozens of people.

Have you tried posting in, say, /ck/? You're lucky to get a reply once a day. It's a ghost town.

"“Obviously we would Google-ize the site. Get rid of the questionable content, throw up some ads, that kind of stuff,” continued Schmidt. “We no doubt will risk alienating some of the users but the majority of them will stay. The amount of private information users drop on those boards combined with the sheer amount of people on the boards makes it a perfect opportunity for us to build up our databases and create new directed marketing. We think the majority of users will appreciate the shift, and if they don’t, well that’s the way it’s got to be. We’re not going to chase everyone down.”

Whoooo I don't know how m00t can resist that temptation.
He'd probably make millions out of that deal and he has no responsibility towards anyone.
Pure 100% profit.
After all the years he has been abused.

And he even would have the money to move away or simply hire people to shoo away the /v/irgins for the rest of his life if need be.

If I was m00t I would have given in and sold already.

That m00t sure is a saint among men of earth.

I mean I would have sold already.

I really hope he does sell out. Moot has worked on 4chan for far too long and has been far more of a bro than a lot of other so-called internet celebrities Quite frankly, he deserves to make bank and retire early.

The /v/ is pretty good since there is absolute nothing that isn't video games, no >that feel (thats for /r9k/), no dubs (they're banned from the whole site) just pure video games.

Funny. I made a huge copypasta about how easy it is to control 4chan users, and what do you know! Google wants to buy this site all of the sudden. Here's the pasta:

More than any other site on the internet, 4chan users are the most easy to mind control. This has been demonstrated time after time as forced memes---memes spammed by one persona over and over again, eventually become accepted by the userbase. Just as a meme can be spammed and eventually accepted, so can opinions. If you want to make /v/ love a game or hate a game, either can be done by spamming love or hate for the game. And it has been done again and again.

If a company had a crew dedicated to viraIIing their game across the web, it would be wisest to pool the majority of such resources into 4chan, because forum based sites where you register cannot be subtly tricked at all. On 4chan, you just go to the board and spam your opinion, samefagging it in creative ways.

I'm sure most of you have felt that "it feels like there are more and more shit posters, and less people trolling pretending to be stupid than before". Thats because there ARE a great amount of stupid shit posters on here. Its all viraI teams who are causing this shit post epidemic. When they are not "doing their job", they surely come back to the site, drawn to its culture, and even work "overtime" at home by shitposting and saying bad things about games that aren't the one they are promoting.

You guys remember those "hilarious" TORTANIC thread and Shazbot threads, right? So funny, such a great meme! And such great viraI methods.

Why do you even come here anymore?

>>
>>139874694
But you can't prove anything in my post to be untrue. Sure, its all speculation on my part, but it just goes to show how fucking easy it is to mind control /v/. You just spam like forced meme spammers do, and voila, you've changed the opinion of /v/'s entire userbase. If one person samefags a thread its obvious. But if you have a whole team of samefaggers, you can make it look like 100+posts are really what the 4chan userbase thinks...when its really mostly a viraI team spamming.

The moment that happens each thread about a game would feel like an official forums that is oblivious to criticism. That's the reason why I like /v/. Somebody will come in the thread and shit all over it with legitimate complaints about the game. Then the rest of the thread will be nitpicking, but the point is we can have a conversation about a game with it's goods and it's bads.. once in awhile. Try that on any official forum and for some reason you're a 'bad troll'

Why do you open feel threads?

For rage? Because they are actually funny to you?

I never understood the reason to come to /v/ and talk about your feelings and acceptance.

Protip: This goes on all year, what you call "Summer /v/" does not exist.

>>139878995
You are the piece of shit that is ruining this place.

When the /vg/ split happened /v/ was fucking beautiful for a week or so. Mods banning you faggots left and right. You faggots were leaving.
It was like FINALLY getting the good old pre-2006 pre-/b/-flood /v/ back...
It was glorious. I shed tears of joy. Vidya everywhere! No /b/-shit!

But then you goddamn /b/-faggots started whining and m00t eventually had to give in and tell the mods to let this place go back to shit.
It was a sad day... I fucking hate every single one of you goddamn /b/tards. If you like that random shit so much just go to /b/. You have your own goddamn board for yourselves. You have reddit, a whole website dedicated to your shittiness. Just fuck off.
>>
>>139879537
You are pretty hostile. You know what you need? A good old fashioned feel thread
>>
>>139879661

A true summerfag would think /v/ is always summer because summer is essentially his only glimpse of the board.

>(USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)

What is this small speck of light that shines through the the darkness. Has a mod awakened?
>>
>>139879661

I thought like once a year mods will really get their shit together and ban any non vidyas on sight?
Just like what heppened when /vg/ was created.

But last year was my first year hear so cant really tell

I really don't get all this summerfag jokes actually..

Are these people implying that those kids can't surf 4chan when it's not holiday ?
>>
>>139879871

I've been here for almost 4 and I can tell you that doesn't happen. Unless I've been missing something.

The one amazing time we get every year is coming though. Just a couple more weeks...
>>
>>139879475
Even biggest 4chan "vayral" hits only reach 3000 views max. When they hit reddit they jump straight to 12mil+ numbers.

Tim Schafer only managed to get 3.3 mil because he managed to get REDDIT's and more importantly NOTCH's minecraft fame attention.
4chan didn't do shit.

There's a reason the projects ONLY 4chan takes interest in fail miserably. All the while the projects that manage to get 4chan's AND reddit's attention succeed.
Or just simply reddit's attention actually. 4chan doesn't matter shit.

>>139880080

You remember when they split the generals from /v/ and /vg/ was created ? Even 4am's got banned

Why can't google buy reddit and be happy?
