Man fuck them then because them allowing the DBSpic spam caused it to spread to the rest of the damn board and now /a/ is generals, porn, bait, or flavor of the month shit. I only go to /a/ now for chapter dumps and story times being the only normal threads left and those threads are even sad because they barely stay alive a lot of times now because no one leaves their generals.
The few times i checked it in the past the only thing going there was mods ERPing and smugly insult rare petitioners who tried to appeal their bans
4chan may have once allowed for lax moderation, but mods = fags has become increasingly true year by year. No longer it has the same lax attitude it had back in 2004. The site's not even a pale shadow of itself anymore.
"CHICKEN JOCKEY" (4chan server immediately implodes and catches on fire)
It was basically collective punishment and made /v/ even worse then it was in 2012 onwards when all continuous discussion was forced to go to /vg/ (see: all the good threads on /v/). SS13 thread in past year or so had to migrate to /vm/ due to how horrendous that board is.
I've been lurking in IRC for quite a while, here's the logs from when I remembered to turn them on up to now (Note: all times are UTC/GMT)
hmofa sure as shit is one of the generals left to rot. There were daily melties over the most inane things and blatant spam. It was always the same one-two guys, too, as you could see all their posts get deleted during the rare times they went so retardedly ballistic even the absentee jannies were forced to take notice. I get that /trash/ is /trash/, but fuck the jannies for policing 6 different blacked threads while everything else wasn't even looked at.
'teens had to get the link from here to figure out how to use irc
well of course - next to every post they have three buttons, sometimes 2. They can delete your post, they can force spoiler your image if you have one (or delete it too - i know that was a popular option for Is Coffee Good For You threads), and they can file a Ban Request (which they can downgrade to a Warn request). If they hit you with a BR/WR you get timed out for 15 minutes unable to post or until a moderator has processed the request.
10.0.0.0/8 is a reserved ip range, similar to 192.168.0.0/16. It is usually used in large WANs, such a company's intranet. It is possible they have some sort of VPN?
Alright, auto-phonebooked all of the emails in the leaked jannies/mods/admins list
rate this from "Nothing ever happens" to "it's so over" for me
