Reminder that this all started because /qa/ raided /lgbt/ and 4chud killed /qa/ in response.

I have a theory this was done at a timely matter because something political is about to take off here in America.

If it wasn't important, it wouldn't be stationed by glowies 24/7.

A lot of glowies are extremely disconnected and truly don't understand new technology or internet culture. It really wouldn't be surprising to me if 4chan was still a 24/7 glowie honeypot only because some boomer at the FBI still thinks 4chan is as relevant as it was in 2009. The govt is notoriously slow to adapt to these sorts of things.

I am an indie game dev and I had to completely give up on using the game dev general because I posted progress there two or three times, just some texturing work for my character models. Some guy started reposting my work regularly and pretending to be me, harassing every other user, making my project just dead in the water on there. Apparently it leaked into the associated discord too, although I never used it. Stopped going there 2 years ago because of it, I wonder if they're still doing it. I never posted anything besides those progress posts so I have no idea what set the schizo off.

Had similar experiences with other types of projects. I'd post some updates on them in various generals, leave for a bit (~1-2 months max), then come back with another update and get 20 people calling me a retarded faggot talking about me doing shit that I never did. Sure enough, when I'd go back in the archives there was usually a schizo impersonating me. This was around 2015-2017 or so, and it's only gotten worse since then.

Never post anything you give a fuck about on 4chan, or really any anonymous discussion site. It's just not worth it.

That's just Null without a shave and a haircut, you can't convince me otherwise.

It's a catch 22. On one hand, that would be an actual solution. On the other, the solution is extremely gay and ruins the fun of an image board. It always comes back to shitty moderation anyway, it's not like forced tripcodes will make the BBC spam and malicious jannies stop, look at how bad /pol/ became.

My thought on it would be the fact that you could easily out anyone who wanted to just stir shit up and argue for the sake of arguing. It would be a lot more interesting in what would normally be slow threads/boards being propped up by one insane faggot spamming constantly. Most normal people who aren't looking to shitpost constantly would just engage in talking about whatever the topic is while not bothering to swap IP's to change that funny identifier, meaning others could be easily ignored if it seems like they're just there to start shit with no interest in the topic.

I'll miss /x/ because it's where I like to go to look at schizos in the wild and see scary jpgs, but frankly, even /x/ has rapidly declined in quality over the last, heck, 5 years. It wasn't that long ago that it had actual content. I'll miss you, /x/. The rest can get fucked.

Legit question: How are you supposed to post without doing this? The 800 second or whatever cooldown makes it unusable

You really do wait out those 15 minutes. The point was to make the site unusable unless you give them your email. Instead, I came back after a few months, and stopped posting when 4chan insisted I wait every time.

You'll need a pound of ground beef, two cups of mozzarella cheese, one egg, a cup of breadcrumbs, a cup (split into 2 half-cups) of a tomato sauce of your choice, and whatever seasonings you typically put in your ground beef dishes, as well as a bread pan and a sheet of parchment paper.

Preheat your oven to 350° F.
Hand-mix the beef, seasonings, egg (no shell!), and breadcrumbs until theyre a homogeneous mix, then spread it flat on the parchment paper. Lay the first half-cup of sauce and 1.5 cups of cheese onto the meatsheet, then, using the parchment paper like a scraper, roll the meatsheet over itself until its a cylinder, before closing the ends so that nothing but meat is visible. Put the meatroll crease-down in your breadpan, and cook for 45 minutes. Afterwards, put the other half-cup of sauce and half-cup of cheese on top of the meatloaf, before cooking for an additional 15 minutes. Let it cool to a reasonable temperature, and serve with whatever sides you see fit. Personally, a pot of mashed potato is good enough.
