Don't forget the 10+ DALLE AIslop threads on the catalogue at any given point in time.
Not to mention the countless twitter screencap threads, which should have been banned long ago. Like why would I come to 4chan to read what some random faggot on twitter posted? And speaking of the AI threads, did they ever explain why they allowed AI art general threads? Like what the fuck was the excuse, considering general threads weren't supposed to be allowed, and those DALL-E threads never even talked about vidya they just spammed their AI generated slop, the only thing vidya-related was the Princess Peach (ai-generated) OP each thread had.
 
i'll still never, EVER forgive the /k/ and /fit/ jannies for how badly they fucked both of those boards up beyond repair. /k/ became less of fellow retards with garbage rods and more gearqueer faggotry and geopolitical sperging. /fit/ was fucked almost immediately after Rich Piana's death and when the trannitors decided to kill /sig/ threads as well, moving the board activity to almost entirely looksmax shit.

hope they 41% once they get doxed.
 
Yeah this is the tricky thing.
Does 4chan need moderation? With the way it was before? Yes. People have cited up and down this thread that the reason the site turned to shit was partially due to bad moderation.
Why are all the mods/jannies complete shit and also retarded? Because you're right, the people who are both patient enough and have the temperance to do that job also have the wits to not spend their precious free time doing such an insane and unrewarding task.
So how do fix it? How do you attract moderators to work such a site that is also famously unprofitable?
You have to create a community that people want to moderate because they’re passionate about it and genuinely want to see it thrive. I’ve seen this happen at a smaller scale in group chats and stuff like that. 4chan did not do that, and now they really can’t undo the damage that’s been done because they’ve spent so many years chasing off the people that did.

Also, even fewer people will want to be jannies now because of the awful security the site has/had. Come give your real name to a website that got hacked and shut down because they were using 13 year old software for basic functions, and that also didn’t change their copyright disclaimer for 10 YEARS.
 
On larger boards, off topic threads were often 100x better than the actual stated purpose of the board.
You would easily, EASILY have better discussions about anime on /v/ than /a/ and vice versa. I would love to know the human psychology on this.
 
After reading Sharty /soy/, reddit r/4chan & KF 4chan thread I can confidently say:

- The guy that hacked 4chan absolutely punked and humiliated lazy gookmoot and paid mods by hacking the website with a PDF exploit. 4chan got touched and this definetely did not happen before, ever.
- Jannies deserve it, and they deserve to be tormented. They were fucking around too much. 4chan hired too much jannies on an already botted up consensus cracking platform with 70% bots. I was running into jannies all the time in normal discussion and if you BTFO'ed them they would ban you for 3 days.
- 4chan will come back online, but with 15 min captcha shit, no unique ip, all this fucking shit being blown into the fan with degenerate loser mods and jannies...4chan definetely won't be the same, it wasn't already but now only the bottom of the barrel will browse it
i dont see how 4chan will come back considering the main issue is that ancient 10,000 line PHP mess they run the site on is super vulnerable. That would require weeks of patching and judging by the technical incompetency of upper "management" (i use this term loosely) i dont think that is a feasible goal for them. Unless they defy all expectations and just reboot the site with the same PHP base lol

btw there was a time i was really into 7chan way way way back when. I have an archive of meme music related to 7chan.


Just reminded of this because of this song.

That ABCxCastlevania mashup is still so fucking good.

You're missing this classic partyhard mode jam though, I think they used it during the soup incident.


eta sperging
Ok this has been bugging me. I recall there being a short lived 7chan meme about "get[ting] in the space train" but I cannot find any evidence of this online anywhere. Does anyone else remember this?

threads that are offtopic are more likely to be removed so shit stirrers dont bother shitting up the thread and the few people that are active in that thread are sincere because they know its a matter of time before the jannies step in and lock/move the thread

Ack

Where do I even
>8Chan gone
>9chan gone
>Mewch gone
>Spacechan gone
>4chan gefallen


This fucking sucks, 4chan had shit captcha, shit mods and was glowing but it had so many small tightknit communities on /VG/ + /VM/
Where the fuck am i meant to go to find such places that aren't overly censorious and non-anonymous.
All that remains is 8chan moe and it's trash.
Everyone forgets 7chan. Its okay though. I remember it. It was a nice place all around. Slower then 4chan but fun in its own.

RIP conductor cat.
