What to do with /a/

a guest May 16th, 2015 9 Never
  1. What to do with /a/
  2.  
  3. Aug 09 10:55:14 <kdel>  the whole problem with the general waifu/trap/milf/female-archetype threads
  4. Aug 09 10:55:36 <kdel>  is that there're no other boards on the site meant for their discussion
  5. Aug 09 10:55:49 <Kusanagi>      ya that's true
  6. Aug 09 10:55:57 <kdel>  so if you create a sticky saying this isn't allowed anymore
  7. Aug 09 10:56:06 <kdel>  there'll be complaining about that whole issue
  8. Aug 09 10:56:07 <Kusanagi>      backlash
  9. Aug 09 10:56:28 <Inf>   cant they just post and talk on /c/
  10. Aug 09 10:56:29 <ChibaK>        > he's head and sshoulders the worst
  11. Aug 09 10:56:51 <ChibaK>        scratch that, the pedo ban evader is on a par with this other idiot
  12. Aug 09 10:56:53 <Kusanagi>      Nobody wants to have to leave /a/
  13. Aug 09 10:57:00 <kdel>  yeah, /c/ is the ideal board
  14. Aug 09 10:57:09 <Inf>   how long is moot going to be away
  15. Aug 09 10:57:11 <Kusanagi>      Well
  16. Aug 09 10:57:14 <kdel>  but in order to that, we need to get moot to actually change the board rules
  17. Aug 09 10:57:33 <Kusanagi>      Yes
  18. Aug 09 10:57:36 <Inf>   he needs to read the thread on /j/ and give some input
  19. Aug 09 10:57:40 <kdel>  because at the present, /c/ is meant to be an image-dump exclusive board
  20. Aug 09 10:57:43 <Kusanagi>      Because the board rules support the users argument
  21. Aug 09 10:57:44 <Inf>   since we cant do anything until he does
  22. Aug 09 10:58:08 <kdel>  which is an outdated concept now that that sites like danbooru are so much more prevalent in the anime community
  23. Aug 09 10:58:26 <Kusanagi>      katsu might fight you
  24. Aug 09 10:58:32 <Kusanagi>      on that
  25. Aug 09 10:58:33 <Kusanagi>      lol
  26. Aug 09 10:58:34 <kdel>  and there's no point in having a board on 4chan just to post only images
  27. Aug 09 10:58:45 <kdel>  except maybe /w/
  28. Aug 09 10:59:23 <Kusanagi>      There's a couple of threads that could go to /c/
  29. Aug 09 10:59:32 <Kusanagi>      If the discussion rule were to be changed
  30. Aug 09 11:00:55 <Inf>   still, since the big m slapped you across the fingers he's at least around, what is stopping him from discussing this shit with us
  31. Aug 09 11:00:55 *       Astroturf has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
  32. Aug 09 11:01:03 <Inf>   also afk dinner
  33. Aug 09 11:01:19 <kdel>  i don't know if moot is still soured by the whole /jp/ experience, but it's clear that /a/ needs a split of some kind
  34. Aug 09 11:01:29 <Kusanagi>      For now
  35. Aug 09 11:01:30 <kdel>  i mean, /v/ has had like what, 4 already?
  36. Aug 09 11:01:36 <Kusanagi>      We can prune some of the lower quality waifu threads
  37. Aug 09 11:01:43 <kdel>  and /a/ is at least half as big as /v/
  38. Aug 09 11:02:21 <kdel>  i'd like to discuss the issue with him when he's in the mood for it
  39. Aug 09 11:02:39 <kdel>  but i can't really see that happening anytime soon
  40. Aug 09 11:02:59 *       CuChulainnPhone (~CuChulain@its.already.sundown) has joined
  41. Aug 09 11:02:59 *       ChanServ gives voice to CuChulainnPhone
  42. Aug 09 11:04:44 <kdel>  if it did, i think the best way to split /a/ would be to have a currently-airing series board, another board for already aired series more than a year old, and a general anime character (waifu/2d girls) board
  43. Aug 09 11:05:33 <kdel>  it'd get rid of the clutter and focus the browsing experience
  44. Aug 09 11:05:40 <Meadowlark>    I think a general waifu board would be better, so we could house the k-pop thread in it.
  45. Aug 09 11:05:57 <Kusanagi>      this site runs on big m time
  46. Aug 09 11:06:07 <Kusanagi>      We'll get to it at some point
  47. Aug 09 11:06:33 <kdel>  exceptions would have to be given to shows that get an ova quite some time after, or old series that just got some big news on a remake, sequel, or movie
  48. Aug 09 11:06:59 <kdel>  what happened to moot anyways? is he actually away somewhere right now?
  49. Aug 09 11:07:13 <Kusanagi>      Some of this came about because of stuff moot said so, you can't say he has been totally silent.  I was told to target some things, the generals were me actin on my own a little and in my opinion moot was right to stop me from posting for awhile.
  50. Aug 09 11:08:17 <Kusanagi>      Uh
  51. Aug 09 11:08:20 <Kusanagi>      I'm not sure
  52. Aug 09 11:08:25 <Kusanagi>      He's around just I don't think right now
  53. Aug 09 11:08:37 <Kusanagi>      If he was around I think he would have said something by now
  54. Aug 09 11:09:02 <Kusanagi>      kdel if you want to talk with him best way is always email it seems
  55. Aug 09 11:09:12 <Kusanagi>      Well that's what he says too
  56. Aug 09 11:09:39 <kdel>  i was thinking about it, but i imagine he gets soo much email. i was wondering whether or not leaving him a message on irc would be faster
  57. Aug 09 11:10:07 <Kusanagi>      He got a lot of complaints about me so yes, he has been lately
  58. Aug 09 11:10:42 <kdel>  alright, i'll try sending him an email then
  59. Aug 09 11:11:33 <kdel>  i think one problem that with my idea of splitting /a/
  60. Aug 09 11:11:48 <Kusanagi>      well earlier he wanted to delete /jp/
  61. Aug 09 11:11:55 <Kusanagi>      and make 2D/random
  62. Aug 09 11:12:01 <kdel>  is that unless manga and anime were to be split up (which i don't approve of), it's hard to prevent scenarios like shingeki generals
  63. Aug 09 11:12:01 <Kusanagi>      but I don't know if he still supports that
  64. Aug 09 11:12:12 <kdel>  since popular manga will go on for years and years
  65. Aug 09 11:12:47 <Kusanagi>      SnK general isn't really all related discussion though there's some crack shippers in there
  66. Aug 09 11:13:02 <Kusanagi>      Some of the other generals are a lot better
  67. Aug 09 11:13:50 <Kusanagi>      I get your point though
  68. Aug 09 11:13:51 <Kusanagi>      But
  69. Aug 09 11:13:59 <Kusanagi>      we don't have a bleach general
  70. Aug 09 11:14:03 <Kusanagi>      We just have bleach threads
  71. Aug 09 11:14:39 <Kusanagi>      I don't see a problem with two or three threads for something popular all discussing their own thing
  72. Aug 09 11:15:42 <kdel>  i'm fine with long threads on the day or two after a new chapter's out, but unless there's some actual discussion going on, mid-week threads for those series are fairly pointless
  73. Aug 09 11:15:54 <Kusanagi>      agreed
  74. Aug 09 11:16:33 <Kusanagi>      Sometimes too
  75. Aug 09 11:16:41 <Kusanagi>      I think pork banger is still around
  76. Aug 09 11:16:47 <kdel>  and i don't think moot would like the implmentation of some arbitrary and subjective rule like, "if the thread starts to revolve more on shipping than actual show discussion, thread is eligible for removal"
  77. Aug 09 11:16:50 <Kusanagi>      And she hijacks bleach threads for shipping wars
  78. Aug 09 11:17:04 <theomeo>       maybe
  79. Aug 09 11:17:13 <kdel>  since he'd fear that mods and janitors would abuse that rule to remove threads for shows they don't like
  80. Aug 09 11:17:18 <theomeo>       but recent mango developments have started the hime trolling anyway
  81. Aug 09 11:17:33 <theomeo>       would still happen even without
  82. Aug 09 11:17:37 <Kusanagi>      I like rules that can't be abused
  83. Aug 09 11:19:48 <Kusanagi>      I think
  84. Aug 09 11:20:08 <kdel>  what do you think are problematic threads on /a/ right now?
  85. Aug 09 11:20:19 <Kusanagi>      SnK general for one
  86. Aug 09 11:20:44 <Kusanagi>      Some of the current anime threads are likely bad
  87. Aug 09 11:21:07 <Kusanagi>      I've seen complaints about some of them actually
  88. Aug 09 11:21:12 <theomeo>       well thats just business as usual isnt it
  89. Aug 09 11:21:14 <Kusanagi>      I think one big problem right now
  90. Aug 09 11:21:17 <Kusanagi>      From this season
  91. Aug 09 11:21:20 <theomeo>       although the himegoto threads
  92. Aug 09 11:21:22 <Kusanagi>      Is the abuse of the term edgy
  93. Aug 09 11:21:23 <theomeo>       turn into hardcore homo
  94. Aug 09 11:21:34 <theomeo>       and by that i mean ERP
  95. Aug 09 11:21:40 <Kusanagi>      trap threads
  96. Aug 09 11:21:55 <Kusanagi>      yuri threads
  97. Aug 09 11:21:58 <Kusanagi>      a little
  98. Aug 09 11:22:06 <kdel>  i'm not sure how often we have them anymore, but do you guys think that sadpanda threads are too off-topic?
  99. Aug 09 11:22:15 <Kusanagi>      no
  100. Aug 09 11:22:21 <Kusanagi>      Well
  101. Aug 09 11:22:28 <theomeo>       before fakku they were fine anyway
  102. Aug 09 11:22:32 <Kusanagi>      Like I don't know anymore things got all fucked up with those DMCAs and shit
  103. Aug 09 11:23:01 <Kusanagi>      I think they are fine
  104. Aug 09 11:23:08 <Kusanagi>      and I think if we try to take it from /a/
  105. Aug 09 11:23:10 <Kusanagi>      They will get mad
  106. Aug 09 11:23:11 <Kusanagi>      Very mad
  107. Aug 09 11:23:43 <Kusanagi>      They do talk about artists and stuff in that thread
  108. Aug 09 11:24:18 <Kusanagi>      like RA kinda try to purge them
  109. Aug 09 11:24:29 <Kusanagi>      It wasn't really going well
  110. Aug 09 11:24:32 <Kusanagi>      honestly
  111. Aug 09 11:24:38 <kdel>  what's the image post limit on /a/ right now?
  112. Aug 09 11:24:43 <kdel>  no wait
  113. Aug 09 11:24:45 <Kusanagi>      350 I think
  114. Aug 09 11:24:46 <kdel>  i mean timer
  115. Aug 09 11:24:54 <Kusanagi>      uhhhhh
  116. Aug 09 11:25:02 <Kusanagi>      I think post timer is 1 min now?
  117. Aug 09 11:25:13 <Kusanagi>      Or am I wrong on that
  118. Aug 09 11:25:22 <monglo>        https://boards.4chan.org/tv/thread/47464212
  119. Aug 09 11:25:47 <theomeo>       i use 4chan-x on opera and have jani on ff and i both suspect they lie to me, so i dont know either
  120. Aug 09 11:26:26 <Kusanagi>      trap threads are a problem though
  121. Aug 09 11:26:32 <Kusanagi>      blogging is a problem
  122. Aug 09 11:26:40 <theomeo>       i found if you just br the ERPers they can get back on track
  123. Aug 09 11:26:42 <Kusanagi>      That's it right there
  124. Aug 09 11:27:04 <Kusanagi>      ERPing is too
  125. Aug 09 11:27:09 <theomeo>       the main problem is to get shit back on track is hard work
  126. Aug 09 11:27:26 <theomeo>       i can understand not everyone wants to spend 20 minutes reading a horrible thread
  127. Aug 09 11:27:30 <theomeo>       just to remove the bad
  128. Aug 09 11:27:38 <theomeo>       i do it anyway cuz i go hard
  129. Aug 09 11:27:53 <Kusanagi>      I get lazy sometimes
  130. Aug 09 11:28:11 <Kusanagi>      I agree though
  131. Aug 09 11:28:26 <Kusanagi>      You gotta read threads to get it all
  132. Aug 09 11:29:05 <kdel>  alright, i'm gonna write up an email right now. who're all the mods/janitors that tend to focus on /a/ right now? i want to discuss with them before actually sending the mail
  133. Aug 09 11:29:14 <monglo>        theomeo
  134. Aug 09 11:29:18 <theomeo>       Inf, AZ4, me, somebody else i dont remember
  135. Aug 09 11:29:22 <Kusanagi>      Nouz
  136. Aug 09 11:29:23 <monglo>        do you mean, because you "get hard" or because you are "hard"
  137. Aug 09 11:29:38 <Kusanagi>      kami is still around and should just be told in general I think
  138. Aug 09 11:29:44 <Nouz>  sup
  139. Aug 09 11:29:48 <theomeo>       if they were all trap threads i'd say why not both
  140. Aug 09 11:29:52 <Kusanagi>      katsu can be told in passing
  141. Aug 09 11:29:53 <theomeo>       but sadly they are not
  142. Aug 09 11:29:58 <Kusanagi>      or talked to
