Is there a possibility to filter out thrads on the reportpage which were already deleted?
Today i was greeted by a total of 16 reports of which every single post was already deleted. i dont know what happened there but i still had to clear each report one by one.
It seems that some kind of caching is going on in the database. The extension I use automatically appends a random variable to the report page's URL which somehow forces the server to treat reports as unique requests.
Perhaps the source code for the reports page could check the query against nonexistent reports, instead.
Is Rizon down for anyone else? I can't seem to log on, getting this constantly: >[17:59:53] Server ERROR: :Closing Link: (No more connections allowed on that IP) >[17:59:53] [SOCKET ERROR]: Remote end has closed the connection >[17:59:53] Connection terminated pic unrelated
There was a minor netsplit that disconnected half of all users, then another one that disconnected everyone else. All of this about 30 minutes ago. Looks like Rizon has crapped itself. Keep trying, it'll be back up soon.
Since us /gd/ janitors were supposed to get together to talk about the board but never did, let's just do it this way.
Specifically, there seems to be something resembling a consensus on the board about the sticky needing to be changed, the two main critiques I keep seeing being that 1) GIMP is shit and shouldn't represent the board, and 2) graphic design is more than just using software to make and manipulate pictures.
Also, use this thread to submit possibilities for a new sticky image.
I was thinking we could add a few more rules, in addition to all requests belong on /r/, to the sticky to avoid confusion on certain topics such as:
1. On the topic of piracy you may not request or post links to warez: cracks, keygens, serials, etc, or warez sites; these threads will be deleted immediately.
2. Brony/MLP images, avatars and other works should still be posted in >>>/mlp/, no exceptions.
3. This is a Burichan SFW board, NSFW content will be deleted based on context.
I want to add these in because they are the greatest offenders I've seen reported so far.

As for the sticky image and content, I think the /gd/ community is the best resource for that, I know they're pretty excited and talented to get a better sticky and they've already made quite a few 4chan /gd/ logo designs in the past.
We should also be thinking about adding more links to tutorials on the sticky, much like the one /3/ has, so people can focus threads on more specific content. I've been following a few users who have compiled a lot of external sites they think would be helpful to have on a sticky and it looks pretty promising.

>>2448 Yeah the board's shaping up to be pretty sweet, and it's really scratching an itch for me. I think the design community can be really full of shit, so it's wonderful to have a 4chan level of freedom to talk real shit (or just talk shit).
As for rules, I think we need to write a full fucking constitution and every sentence is just "No requests." Because goddamn I can't believe how many people won't read a one-line sticky.

Absolutely, it gets pretty silly.
Anonymous New form of image embedding fo(...)03/30/13(Sat)02:05 No.2438
Silver Linings Playbook was broken into MP4 chunks, encoded into JPEGs whose appearance is a screengrab of each chunk, and with the userscript installed the script strips off the header, rewrites it as a blob and points a VIDEO element at the blob.
As someone who remembers Lithursday on /b/, this is probably worth detecting and blocking for the same reasons.
The image is the OP image for analysis by whichever devmod cares to pick it apart.
It seems to only be affecting the stuff from the board itself. It doesn't happen from the actual Janitor screen (with all the reports and such).
So, it means unless someone reports it, I can't BR it.
Quick fix to that: Report it yourself! Then it shows in the Janitor screen.

Been some discussion about the sudden deletion of Bear threads on /lgbt/, so I thought I'd grab a little clarification since I haven't actually seen the threads themselves.
The "bear" community (burly gay men) is part of the lgbt community, so it would seem fine in its essence. Now, if they're becoming /soc/ hook-ups or porn dumps, I can understand that.
It's really more of a curiosity and nobody's archiving lgbt yet, so I can't go look for myself.
I've seen them and they've been ONLY porn dumps (/hm/ material) or hook ups (/soc/ material), not a curiosity. If any are in fact curiosity or anything that pertains to /lgbt/, then of course they will be left untouched.
>Ban evasion will result in permanent bans—no exceptions.
The whole discussion about the threads' place in /vr/ or /v/ is shedding some light into the ban evasion thing some time ago http://rememberedoldbuddy.tumblr.com/post/44857563992/from-the-blog-author-about-monday-night
We need more than just an uneducated hasty decision that will hang over us for years. OP is becoming more of a personality and clearly going against the few rules we try to uphold, sticking with /vr/ for now not out of concern for the topic and the board's goals but because "moderation is almost as lax as /v/". Really don't see why we need to make an exception for threads that are turning into far too much trouble to keep around.
Of course this is the least of our problems but it would help to have a clear response on the status of ROB threads.
The /vr/ ruleset seems poorly thought out, at least according to the sticky.
Is the intention to exclude true 3D console games/32bit era games so that people can speak about a certain era in each respective camp? As in, the golden age of consoles, PC games, and arcades? If so, why not word it something like:
"Welcome to retro games.
This board is for the discussion of classic, or 'retro' games. Retro gaming means computer games and arcade games (including pinball and other similar games you would find in an arcade) that existed before the year 2000, and consoles from the fourth generation and earlier."
This board is for the discussion of classic, or 'retro' games. Retro gaming means consoles, computer games, arcade games (including pinball) and any other forms of video games circa 1999 and earlier. Note that 'Sixth generation', and later consoles are not considered retro.
I've removed the part about fifth-gen consoles. 1999 is still the cut off year. Everyone is going to have a different definition of retro. A line, however arbitrary, has to be drawn somewhere.
>>2334 Would have been better if it were merely replaced with a ban on sixth generation and later IMHO. There are some people in /vr/ who are pushing Dreamcast and even Gamecube and PS2 games now.
