- Ban evaders and lurk bans
- [13:29:22] <ALTERNATIVE> there's "ban theory" in general too that's been in consistant discussion
- [13:29:33] <swaglord> I'll also try to be more careful
- [13:29:38] *** swaglord is now known as StarFrog
- [13:29:44] <ALTERNATIVE> thats cool, I appreciate it
- [13:29:54] <StarFrog> What is the Ban Theory?
- [13:29:57] <ALTERNATIVE> now I really need to play dreamcast because it is 9/9
- [13:30:22] <ALTERNATIVE> just talking about bans in general, how they work, don't work, how they work on other sites, ways to improve shit
- [13:30:28] <FnFyZpXv> https://boards.4chan.org/co/thread/65401237#p65402826 top kek
- [13:30:49] <FnFyZpXv> For sure 4chan is a whole different beast from all the other sites
- [13:31:05] <StarFrog> I brought dreamcast to work again today, playing Space Channel 5 right now.
- [13:31:06] <FnFyZpXv> I guess bans are more symbolic than anything here
- [13:31:11] <ALTERNATIVE> yeah it's been an ongoing discussion for uhh
- [13:31:13] <ALTERNATIVE> a decade
- [13:31:17] <StarFrog> wow
- [13:31:32] *** Quits: CuChulainnPhone (~CuChulain@its.already.sundown) (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
- [13:31:47] <ALTERNATIVE> this isnt like, systems or anything, just talking in general about how THE INTERNET WORKS
- [13:31:50] *** Joins: Tripon (~Sonny@neogaf.vhost.edu)
- [13:31:50] *** ChanServ sets mode: +h Tripon
- [13:31:57] <Troid> lurk ban
- [13:32:01] <Troid> problems: solved
- [13:32:07] <ALTERNATIVE> I want hellbans
- [13:32:08] <Troid> but against the spirit of 4chan
- [13:32:13] <FnFyZpXv> What's a hellban?
- [13:32:19] <ALTERNATIVE> you can see your own posts but nobody else can
- [13:32:24] <FnFyZpXv> Ohh
- [13:32:26] <LingeringParticles> haha
- [13:32:27] <FnFyZpXv> The shadowban
- [13:32:39] <FnFyZpXv> You don't know you're banned but nobody can see your posts
- [13:32:40] <ALTERNATIVE> it was called hell ban on SA
- [13:32:55] <FnFyZpXv> I've heard a lot of people talking about it recently on the site
- [13:32:59] <ALTERNATIVE> really
- [13:33:06] <ALTERNATIVE> I talked about it a few times years and years ago
- [13:33:15] <ALTERNATIVE> it's not a thing
- [13:33:17] <ALTERNATIVE> on 4chan
- [13:33:23] <TheBurnWard> Its a good idea but shitters will just look at the archives and if it doesn't show up they evade.
- [13:33:30] <TheBurnWard> I mean its one more step they have to take, which i'm all for.
- [13:33:33] <Troid> the worst evaders switch IPs/clear cookies constantly
- [13:33:43] <Troid> it might help with your "standard evader" I guess
- [13:33:46] <ALTERNATIVE> I like the people who tell them to clear cache and cookies
- [13:33:49] <ALTERNATIVE> like it will do anything
- [13:33:53] <FnFyZpXv> Yeah, it wouldn't stop a lot of people but it would still help
- [13:34:09] <FnFyZpXv> and there's no way you can get completely rid of people like bui
- [13:34:09] <Troid> well it probably would if you were hellbanning
- [13:34:18] <Troid> FnFyZpXv: sure there is, find him and kill him
- [13:34:22] <FnFyZpXv> Hahaha
- [13:34:23] <Troid> I've been advocating this for a long time
- [13:34:27] <FnFyZpXv> Well legally I mean
- [13:34:48] <FnFyZpXv> I'm all for finding the marveldrone troll and drown him in his own piss
- [13:35:14] <FnFyZpXv> Or make a crowfunding initiative
- [13:35:17] <FnFyZpXv> Or a kickstarter
- [13:35:20] <ALTERNATIVE> troid missed his evader coming back
- [13:35:24] <FnFyZpXv> With the most wanted ban evaders
- [13:35:28] <ALTERNATIVE> now he'll never get to see the great post
- [13:35:33] <Troid> t-the tab icon didn't change
- [13:35:33] <StarFrog> Do what GTA did, anyone who was banned has to go to 4chan-2 where only people banned can post
- [13:35:36] <FnFyZpXv> You pay people for kill them, problem solved
- [13:35:45] <Troid> >Holy fuck, mod. You are autistic as fucking hell. Do you assume everyone you don't like is ban evading?
- [13:35:57] <KusKus> such great posts dave
- [13:36:06] <Troid> someone should tell him to go to #4chan again
- [13:36:08] <ALTERNATIVE> its time I reveal the secret
- [13:36:10] <Troid> that distracted him for a while last time
- [13:36:13] <ALTERNATIVE> I am every ban-evading user on 4chan
- [13:36:14] <FnFyZpXv> Can someone check my BRs?
- [13:36:14] <ALTERNATIVE> they're all me
- [13:36:22] <KusKus> Finally the truth comes out
- [13:36:22] <FnFyZpXv> This is the third time I BR a guy
- [13:36:27] <ALTERNATIVE> what board
- [13:36:31] <FnFyZpXv> co/
- [13:36:36] <KusKus> Dave has revealed all, you know longer see through the veil
- [13:36:39] <FnFyZpXv> First for 3, then for complaining, then for 3 again
- [13:36:56] <Troid> I forget what mewt said about lurk bans. probably something like it's within the realm of possibility, but he wants to find another solution.
- [13:37:06] <Troid> I'm all for em personally
- [13:37:07] <ALTERNATIVE> I dont know what you mean by lurk bans
- [13:37:12] <KusKus> what's a lurk ban
- [13:37:15] <Troid> new IPs have to wait X hours before posting
- [13:37:22] <ALTERNATIVE> oh yeah
- [13:37:25] <ALTERNATIVE> not a fan
- [13:37:29] <KusKus> Why can we not do that?
- [13:37:29] <Troid> and you can cookie it so dynamic users don't have to keep waiting
- [13:37:49] <FnFyZpXv> It's an entertaining idea
- [13:37:50] <ALTERNATIVE> no barrier to entry is a nice thing
- [13:38:11] <Troid> yeah it's a barrier to entry thing. not wanting to take away that very 4chan thing just to stop evaders.
- [13:38:39] <Troid> it would pretty much stop ban evasion and put a dent in spambots etc. though
- [13:39:07] <FnFyZpXv> It would not be ideal for people with dynamic IPs though
- [13:39:14] <ALTERNATIVE> troid missed him again
- [13:39:22] <Troid> I saw it that time
- [13:39:26] <ALTERNATIVE> UH HUH
- [13:39:37] <KusKus> tricky tricky
- [13:39:42] <ALTERNATIVE> I reverse my opinion on the first person who didn't look like him
- [13:39:44] <Troid> FnFyZpXv: yeah I can't think of a good solution for dynamic IPs except for cookies
- [13:39:52] <Troid> but I mean 4chan Passes work fine
- [13:39:54] <ALTERNATIVE> because this one looked like that one
- [13:40:00] <FnFyZpXv> But cookies are intrusive
- [13:40:02] <Troid> and they also rely on cookies for IP changes
- [13:40:09] <Troid> 4chan already uses cookies lol
- [13:40:19] <Troid> some people just don't like them, for them it would be an issue
- [13:40:31] <Troid> also it would ruin mobile posting I guess
- [13:40:42] <ALTERNATIVE> the cookies arent used for anything other than storing your name, options, and for deleting your posts
- [13:40:52] <FnFyZpXv> Yeah, that'd be the biggest issue, but then again, I wonder if people realize that mods can see their IPs
- [13:40:54] <Troid> there are certainly downsides. but imo it's the most effective, least damaging solution to ban evasion at the moment.
- [13:41:45] <FnFyZpXv> They already complain so much about 4chan, I wouldn't want to imagine how many new ways of shitposting they would pull out of a cookie thing
- [13:42:21] <Troid> there will always be the good old fashioned way: as VCR put it, "out-autism them."
- [13:42:38] <Troid> hahahah holy shit
- [13:42:42] <Troid> https://boards.4chan.org/u/thread/1595938#p1597723
- [13:42:51] <ALTERNATIVE> it's already gone
- [13:43:07] <FnFyZpXv> Yeah, right now ban evaders are the biggest source of artificial autism in janitors
- [13:43:12] <ALTERNATIVE> I don't understand what he meant by that post
- [13:43:23] <Troid> he is explaining how to use your words
- [13:43:30] <Troid> he probably thinks you're one of the people he's arguing with
- [13:43:38] <ALTERNATIVE> oh well he's dumb then
- [13:43:45] <Troid> everyone who disagrees is the janitor, etc.
- [13:43:50] <ALTERNATIVE> I don't even browse /u/ as a regular user
- [13:43:56] <ALTERNATIVE> because gays are evil
- [13:43:57] <Troid> our loss
- [13:43:58] <ALTERNATIVE> just kidding
- [13:44:24] <KusKus> VCR_Working is right
- [13:44:31] <KusKus> you must out tism them
- [13:44:38] <ALTERNATIVE> everything is autism
- [13:44:47] <ALTERNATIVE> such a popular thing to say
- [13:44:56] <Troid> I remember when people used to call everything "OCR" and it was really annoying
- [13:44:58] <FnFyZpXv> What will next year's buzzword be?
- [13:44:59] <butterfingers> Yeah, right now ban evaders are the biggest source of artificial autism in janitors <<<< I don't read my favorite ban evader's tumblr at all. I would never do that.
- [13:45:01] <Troid> now it's been superseded by "autistic"
- [13:45:05] <Troid> *OCD
- [13:45:09] <Troid> not OCR lol
- [13:45:15] <KusKus> It is more OCD
- [13:45:23] <ALTERNATIVE> lol janitor has overclocked-remix
- [13:45:36] <KusKus> wubwubwub
- [13:45:56] <KusKus> jani is cat
- [13:46:05] <Troid> janny look like pangolin
- [13:46:08] <ALTERNATIVE> I never got that joke
- [13:46:24] <FnFyZpXv> butterfingers, I am making a chart of a spammer's usual apparitions on excel. Hopefully I'll be able to predict when he shows up if i keep at it
- [13:46:25] <KusKus> Pretty sure it's just /jp/ shitposting
- [13:46:42] <Troid> there have been people who do the opposite, FnFyZpXv
- [13:46:50] <Troid> think they've mapped out when a janitor is online etc.
- [13:46:58] <KusKus> like for free dave
- [13:47:00] <FnFyZpXv> Ah yeah, /frz/ used to think that for me
- [13:47:23] <FnFyZpXv> They thought I lived in merica because of my absurd life
- [13:47:32] <Troid> some nutjob on /q/ made dozens of threads going on about how when the janitor was on everything was shit but then at other times "the mod" would be on and it was great
- [13:47:33] <ALTERNATIVE> that was one of the few things /sp/ has come up with that I actually find funny
- [13:47:41] <KusKus> I find it funny too
- [13:47:50] <Troid> on /sci/, taht is
- [13:47:52] <FnFyZpXv> Yeah, they think there's only one janitor
- [13:47:58] <FnFyZpXv> Or sometimes only one mod per board
- [13:48:10] <ALTERNATIVE> it helps to remember that it requires much more effort to evade a ban than it does to place a ban
- [13:48:15] <FnFyZpXv> Earlier today somebody was saying that the /co/ mod was angry because /sp/ was shitposting about him
- [13:48:23] <KusKus> It does
- [13:48:25] <FnFyZpXv> But he couldn't do anything because he has no power on /sp/
- [13:48:25] <Troid> lol why is he ranting about proxies
- [13:48:29] <KusKus> I think about them resetting
- [13:48:36] <KusKus> Whatever method they use
- [13:48:40] <ALTERNATIVE> because I'm using 'ban evasion' except for one of them where I used 'proxy'
- [13:48:41] <KusKus> And I chuckle to myself
- [13:48:43] <ALTERNATIVE> I guess
- [13:48:48] <ALTERNATIVE> I guess they think I type it out each time
- [13:48:55] <Troid> oh well
- [13:48:55] <ALTERNATIVE> instead of pressing one button on the keyboard
- [13:48:56] <Troid> you know
- [13:49:10] <Troid> execute:function(ban_user){user is using a proxy}
- [13:49:12] <Troid> and all that
- [13:49:26] <ALTERNATIVE> ?
- [13:49:37] <Troid> just joking. like mods are 1337 hackers typing code into a terminal
- [13:49:42] <ALTERNATIVE> ohhhh
- [13:49:53] <ALTERNATIVE> I tried to play hacker revolution but it's not fun
- [13:50:07] <FnFyZpXv> more like they're fat manchildren pissing in bottles while trying to stop people from having fun
- [13:50:09] <ALTERNATIVE> I really liked uplink and have been trying to find something that feels like it
- [13:50:12] <KusKus> I want to get a ps4
- [13:50:15] <KusKus> sooooo bad
- [13:50:17] <KusKus> oh my god
- [13:50:18] <WalterWhite> why kuskus
- [13:50:22] <KusKus> Destiny
- [13:50:25] <WalterWhite> lel
