- (00:57:53) +Volphied370: hi
- (00:58:08) +scrubadour: yo
- (00:58:22) +BluRay: what do you think about the /vp/ vs reddit thing
- (00:58:47) +Volphied370: fine by me
- (00:59:16) +BluRay: same, hell I'm encouraging it
- (00:59:40) +BluRay: suggested several different formats to play
- (01:00:08) +BluRay: they seem intent on following through with it
- (01:00:34) +BluRay: so it should be fun to see how it turns out
- (01:01:39) +BluRay: as long as they keep it civil, ofc
- (01:03:52) +scrubadour: oh, is /vp/ going to pokebattle against reddit?
- (01:04:10) +scrubadour: that sounds creative
- (01:24:09) +Thesmothete: /v/ is quieter than I thought it'd be.
- (01:24:55) +BluRay: it won't last
- (01:25:30) +Thesmothete: I'm sure tomorrow I'll feel like a rookie police officer in Detroit.
- (01:26:11) +tjanster: Doubt it
- (01:27:40) +tjanster: You'll feel like an expert
- (01:51:17) +Thesmothete: So, I have a guy spamming furry porn in a thread that's actually video games, but everybody has kind of abandoned it.
- (01:51:28) +BluRay: you hold up right now
- (01:51:43) +BluRay: we need the other /jp/ guys
- (01:51:44) +Thesmothete: I submitted a ban request, but should I keep deleting his posts, or just take down the thread?
- (01:51:53) +Thesmothete: Nobody has talked about videogames for a while, in it.
- (01:52:01) +BluRay: to go over policy with you
- (01:53:19) +Volphied370: don´t let the furfags think they can delete threads by spamming them
- (07:37:00) +Kazisho: dongfix https://boards.4chan.org/v/res/174359420
- (07:40:25) @dongfix: don't care about sounds anymore sorry
- [...]
- (07:41:04) +fsdfdsf: hahahha
- (07:41:25) +Kazisho: Fuk.
- (07:42:19) +Volphied370: How about instead of thinking up filters, we just ban request them
- (07:42:27) +Volphied370: there´s no script to prevent thread deletions
- (07:43:09) +Kazisho: YET.
- (07:43:31) +fsdfdsf: We should just ban their images
- (07:43:35) +Volphied370: no, really. The soundfags in /a/ are now laying low due to frequent deletions
- (07:43:41) +Kazisho: They will create more images.
- (07:43:46) +Volphied370: the same has to be done in /v/
- (07:43:52) +fsdfdsf: I know, felt good to say though
- (07:45:31) +Kazisho: Doesn't that go under "Intentionally evading spam/post filters." now.
- (07:45:52) +Volphied370: yes
- (07:57:55) +Kazisho: Also, that fucking "What's /vp/" screenshot. Still makes me angry.
- (07:58:47) SerWind: What's vp
- (07:59:00) SerWind: ;)
- (07:59:35) +Kazisho: It just was horrible.
- (08:02:38) SerWind: What's vp like anyway
- (08:02:41) SerWind: I don't go
- (08:02:49) SerWind: It seems like one of the more peaceful boards
- (08:04:05) +Kazisho: It used to be rude in the past.
- (08:56:52) +AoC: yeah, at least bad anime fanart is related to the board
- (08:56:59) +AoC: unlike the "autism thread!" in /v/
- (10:17:09) +fsdfdsf: It's woxxxy
- (10:17:10) +duanemoody: (if foolz is secretly run by us, i didn't know)
- (10:17:16) +fsdfdsf: It isn't
- (10:17:17) +duanemoody: who dat
- (10:17:23) +fsdfdsf: The guy that runs foolz
- (10:17:30) +AoC: the archive line never dies
- (10:17:42) +duanemoody: ?
- (11:04:29) +Azatsu: No AoC
- (11:04:32) +Azatsu: Kronies is /v/ native
- (11:04:43) +Azatsu: he himself said that he left /v/ because it was too shitty for him
- (11:06:04) +AoC: well I'll be damned
- (11:06:33) +AoC: not that surprising when you think about it, 2011 /v/ was a veritable breeding ground
- (13:02:10) @ALTERNATIVE: why is the template gone for rule 3
- (13:02:12) +duanemoody: bug the man who does
- (13:02:16) +duanemoody: ASK HIM
- (13:02:20) @ALTERNATIVE: was there a reason
- (13:02:20) +Kazisho: Because apparently it was abused.
- (13:02:31) +Kazisho: I don't know why, though.
- (13:02:32) +duanemoody: and no one cared to tell us
- (13:02:47) +duanemoody: so poof, 1 or 6
- (13:02:50) +duanemoody: that's all you got
- (13:03:03) @ALTERNATIVE: can you use notes in ban requests
- (13:03:06) +duanemoody: NOPE
- (13:03:15) +duanemoody: that was too confusing
- (13:03:20) +dashiCRAY: so in the I'll just go with 6 in the mean time
- (13:03:21) @ALTERNATIVE: how did you guys fuck up so hard they limited you this much
- (13:03:29) +duanemoody: WOULDN'T KNOW, NO ONE TOLD US
- (13:03:42) @ALTERNATIVE: I mean I know there was a gigantic clusterfuck thanks to idiots ban requesting everything under child porn
- (13:03:56) +dashiCRAY: It was before my time, I'm immune to blame
- (13:04:31) +duanemoody: but thanks for assuming we fucked up alternative
- (13:04:50) +duanemoody: great vote of confidence
- (13:05:02) @ALTERNATIVE: you said yourself that it was abused
- (13:05:10) +duanemoody: i said nothing of the sort
- (13:05:11) @ALTERNATIVE: oh no kaz did
- (13:05:24) @ALTERNATIVE: so if it was abused
- (13:05:26) @ALTERNATIVE: that is fucking up
- (13:05:32) @ALTERNATIVE: doesn't mean you did it
- [...]
- (13:05:41) +duanemoody: well good thing we can't abuse it now
- (13:06:05) +VCR_Working: the point is it was taken away and we can't use it anymore
- (13:06:12) +VCR_Working: so wakarimasen
- (13:06:17) +VCR_Working: anywayyyy
- (13:06:23) +duanemoody: the point is no one bothered to explain anything to us, we just woke up unable to use it
- (13:06:28) +Kazisho: We don't know who is responsible for it and honestly, I don't even care, but it's bad to take it away from everyone, in my opinion.
- (13:18:46) +duanemoody: when new.php was still working some of that was easier to judge alternative
- (13:18:52) +duanemoody: but ok
- (13:19:07) @ALTERNATIVE: if you treat ban requests less of a tool and more as a last resort
- (13:19:18) +duanemoody: NOW i understand that
- (13:19:18) @ALTERNATIVE: then there may be less overuse
- (13:19:29) +duanemoody: i was not told this a year ago when i started
- [...]
- (13:19:42) @ALTERNATIVE: okay cool would you like to yell at me some more about that
- (13:19:51) @ALTERNATIVE: I'm just telling you things in an attempt to help you
- (13:19:53) +VCR_Working: easy there duane
- (13:20:09) +duanemoody: no, i'm genuinely grateful to understand this now
- (13:20:11) +duanemoody: no sarcasm
- (13:20:15) @ALTERNATIVE: sweet
- (13:20:22) +duanemoody: i just feel bad we made it harder for you guys
- (13:20:25) @ALTERNATIVE: dont think I'm not on your side
- [...]
- (13:20:33) @ALTERNATIVE: just because I say things like yall fucked up
- (13:20:35) @ALTERNATIVE: I fuck up too
- (13:20:36) @ALTERNATIVE: we all do!
- (13:20:50) +VCR_Working: but yeah i have been extremely reserved with brs in the past, but i've been forced to escalate things as of late
- (13:20:51) @ALTERNATIVE: I pissed off /sp/ for months on end it was not fun
- (13:21:15) +Kazisho: I hate the "us" and "them" mindset that's sometimes going on here.
- (13:21:33) @ALTERNATIVE: you are part of the community you moderate
- (13:21:48) +Kazisho: No, I meant janis and mods.
- (13:21:51) @ALTERNATIVE: oh okay
- [...]
- (13:23:09) @ALTERNATIVE: both janitors and moderators are just users of the site that have the ability to remove posts
- [...]
- (13:23:53) @ALTERNATIVE: we're all working towards the same goal
- (13:23:57) @ALTERNATIVE: I was more addressing Kazisho's point
- (13:24:02) @ALTERNATIVE: we are separated, it's true
- (13:24:07) @ALTERNATIVE: but we're also working together
- (13:24:19) +duanemoody: i have no idea what you do besides review my BRs
- (13:24:30) @ALTERNATIVE: the same thing as you
- (13:24:30) +duanemoody: i assume you read boards and intercede like janitors do
- (13:24:37) +duanemoody: so i was right
- (13:24:38) +duanemoody: ok
- (13:24:39) @ALTERNATIVE: yeah
- (13:24:44) @ALTERNATIVE: and reports and appeals
- (13:24:55) @ALTERNATIVE: and handling extra problems from people on irc
- (13:25:08) @ALTERNATIVE: we're the face people end up seeing when they have an issue
- (13:25:16) +duanemoody: which is never fun
- (13:25:20) @ALTERNATIVE: so we have to communicate between the users and the rest of the team
- (13:25:41) @ALTERNATIVE: like when someone complains at me about a ban I'll come in here and try and figure out the reasoning behind it
- [...]
- (13:44:16) +AoC: >using BR as more of a last resort
- (13:44:24) +AoC: I disagree ALTERNATIVE
- (13:44:34) @ALTERNATIVE: why
- (13:44:41) @ALTERNATIVE: you have always been harsher than you should be
- [...]
- (13:45:00) +AoC: because we keep treating bans as if they were the last step and the last line we should cross
- [...]
- (13:45:14) +AoC: while the users treat is a 5m router reset
- [...]
- (13:45:27) +duanemoody: AoC has a point here
- (13:45:36) @ALTERNATIVE: my response was going to be
- (13:45:38) @ALTERNATIVE: "so?"
- (13:46:09) @ALTERNATIVE: when you are heavy handed and excessive with bans, it only hurts people who aren't the most terrible people on 4chan
- (13:46:40) +AoC: so we use the tools that we have in order to make environment hostile to the board threats, rather than keep ourselves needlessly limited in what we can do
- (13:46:41) @ALTERNATIVE: the people who will evade anyway are slightly annoyed by bans, but someone who is innocently making a mistake is confused and lost
- (13:46:51) +Anikitan: wouldn't people learn more from getting a 3 day ban than getting their post deleted?
- (13:46:59) +Anikitan: especially if they can't evade
- (13:47:04) +AoC: I agree that with the current system the only bans that stick are the false positives by definition
- (13:47:11) @ALTERNATIVE: yeah, thats why you'd use it when they repeat their same mistake
- (13:47:23) +duanemoody: i thought the new system showed people their post
- (13:47:23) +Anikitan: but we never know when people repeat their mistakes
- (13:47:30) @ALTERNATIVE: you do if they do the same damn thing twice
- (13:47:31) +duanemoody: as well as their reason
- (13:47:38) @ALTERNATIVE: it does, and it is great
- (13:47:39) +AoC: but that means we need to check the system itself rather than "ok, let's be even more lenient and allow the entropy to keep growing unchecked"
- (13:47:48) @ALTERNATIVE: I'm not saying never ban request people
- (13:47:51) +Anikitan: not if they're anonymous, and they're doing the exact same thing but differently
- (13:47:53) +duanemoody: no, we do not know when people repeat their mistakes because we can't see their IPs
- (13:47:55) @ALTERNATIVE: I'm saying dont do it so fucking much
- (13:48:19) +duanemoody: this point keeps eluding mods when we talk about this
- (13:48:29) +duanemoody: we can only GUESS who's repeating
- (13:48:30) @ALTERNATIVE: reposting deleted materials is worthy of a ban
- (13:48:40) +AoC: we can't tell if reposts or samefag
- (13:48:45) +duanemoody: ^
- (13:48:47) @dongfix|cctv: poster identification is not something you are going to get
- (13:48:52) @ALTERNATIVE: tru.dat
- (13:48:53) +AoC: unless we use BR btw, which allows a bit of tracking
- (13:49:04) +AoC: we know, we know
- (13:49:05) +duanemoody: telepathy is also something we are not going to get
- (13:49:07) +AoC: because of trust
- [...]
- (13:50:19) @ALTERNATIVE: being lenient is better than being heavy handed with bans
- (13:50:32) @ALTERNATIVE: if you feel you need to make a ban request that option is still there for you!
- (13:50:37) +duanemoody: i have to assume you get a lot of complaints about bans
- (13:50:44) @ALTERNATIVE: of course but it's been like that for years
- (13:50:46) %Aerolite: yes, look at /q/
- [...]
- (13:50:56) @ALTERNATIVE: since the site started
- (13:50:57) +duanemoody: /q/ is painful to read
- (13:51:04) @ALTERNATIVE: I used to monitor banned@4chan.org
- (13:51:15) @ALTERNATIVE: before appeals!
- (13:51:19) +duanemoody: whoa
- (13:51:57) @ALTERNATIVE: so please, don't feel like I'm telling you never to ban request, just try to approach it less-harsh stance
- (13:52:38) @ALTERNATIVE: I'll see the stupidest shit sometimes and I can't imagine what went through someone's head that lead them to the point where they felt like they had to post it
- (13:52:50) @ALTERNATIVE: then one click of a mouse and it's gone
- [...]
- (13:53:14) @ALTERNATIVE: sure, something like it will eventually pop back up
- (13:53:34) +AoC: and I'm telling you that Inner Party is free to disagree with the ban requests and just not approve them, but that we need the BR as the slap in the hand that it is most of the time. The day I stop BR for lol le russle face xD is the day I give up on the idea of ever turning things over
- (14:11:16) +AoC: whoever deleted the image in this thread
- (14:11:17) +AoC: https://boards.4chan.org/v/res/174421714
- [...]
- (14:11:36) +AoC: please next time go the whole way and delete the trap derail posts
- (14:11:42) +AoC: already did and let's see how it goes
- (14:35:28) +AoC: reddit is the only active wordfilter right?
- (14:35:52) +AoC: we're no longer blocking viral or xbots/sonyggers/nintenyearolds
- (14:36:18) +Anikitan: what about nintendrone?
- (14:36:18) %Aerolite: i think kotaku is also filtered
- (14:36:18) +duanemoody: i can say nigger but i can't say xbot
- (14:36:22) +Anikitan: i remember that being one
- (14:36:28) +duanemoody: you can't say kotaku
- [...]
- (14:36:57) +duanemoody: man can i please ask for "DCasual" on that list?
- [...]
- (14:37:14) +duanemoody: "marveldrone"
- (14:37:16) +duanemoody: "feminist"
- (14:37:22) +duanemoody: "tumblr"
- (14:59:11) +AoC: meta on /q/ suffers from the lack of mod input
- (14:59:41) +AoC: which is the biggest appealing factor, besides containment and actually following the rules
- (14:59:47) +Kazisho: And users actually browsing the board.
- (15:00:11) %RapeApe: a lot of the things mentioned either don't merit a response, or else are beyond the scope of the mods
- (15:00:43) %RapeApe: anything modposted gets screencapped and trotted out out of context forever
- (15:01:37) %RapeApe: very likely. like moot said, /his/ would just be /pol/ with dates
- (15:02:18) +Kazisho: I imagine it to be like WW2 - The Board.
- (17:55:44) SerWind: >/b/ has /v/
- (17:55:51) SerWind: Why does that make me sad.
- (19:52:05) +AoC: you can still mess up by deleting a seemingly harmful OP that happened to have a moot/mod post somewhere in it
- (19:52:26) +AoC: heads up new blood: Always check the thread when the report seems odd in any way
- (19:52:41) +AoC: like, too high numbers or innocuous content
- (20:59:11) +tjanster: /hm/ has a problem with people thinking it's gay /soc/ or gay /adv/. Otherwise, it's pretty on topic.
- (21:00:25) ~moots: hm had a janitor for like 48 hours
- (21:00:29) ~moots: but has otherwise been unmoderated
- (21:00:34) ~moots: so it's easy to see why it would be a shitshow
- [...]
- (21:05:12) ~moots: when the board was added, it had a janitor
- (21:05:15) +tjanster: Oh
- (21:05:25) ~moots: who as it turns out is a complete idiot
- (21:05:28) ~moots: and immediately told everyone he was a janitor
- [...]
- (21:05:33) ~moots: and was thus immediately removed
- (21:05:41) +Azatsu: it was really shitty . _ .
- (21:05:44) +AoC: ah, I remember that
- [...]
- (21:06:03) ~moots: it's a shame because /hm/ certainly had/has potential
- (21:06:14) ~moots: he said it in a fucking github commit/issues page too
- (21:06:22) +tjanster: Oh, I remember that
- [...]
- (21:06:24) +Azatsu: he posted a link to /j/ lol
- (21:06:25) +duanemoody: not exactly a whoops
- (21:06:31) +MDN: What an odd place to announce you're a janitor.
- (21:06:34) +tjanster: I remember reading the github comment on it
- (21:06:35) +Azatsu: saying "4chan x doesn't work on /j/"
- (21:06:38) +tjanster: Yep
- (21:21:23) +BluRay: >reports on the /vp/ preliminary tournament thread
- (21:21:54) +BluRay: eat a dick, there is literally nothing wrong with challenging reddit
- (21:21:56) +AoC: let me guess, same guy upset over canoodling with red dirt
- (21:22:02) +BluRay: yes
- (21:22:20) +BluRay: I'm bring him if he starts further drama
- (21:22:21) +AoC: also, the word of the day is "canoodling"
- (21:22:25) +BluRay: lol
- (21:23:28) +tjanster: We can canoodle.
- (21:23:37) +tjanster: Because it totally means "chat".
- (21:31:01) @ALTERNATIVE: no canoodling
