Post known ban evaders in this thread. It should be helpful for when there is no mod support in irc.

Make sure you post the full named and tripcode, and what board they are from (to know if they are branching into different boards).

Tatsumoto (posts anonymously)
Can appear on any board in any thread that might discuss the Japanese language, most notably on /jp/ DJT.
Usually will post a link to his site/blog or youtube:
https://tatsumoto.neocities.org/
https://tatsumoto-ren.github.io/blog/resources.html
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AO_UNZ13_6E
His site contains nothing but resources copied from other sources, while also begging for crypto donations and hiding some resources behind his patreon paywall.

Common word patterns:
Disdain for websites itazuraneko, TMW (the moe way), and animecards which commonly appears in the DJT OP.
Disdain for "shoui"/"mehmet"/"turkish tranny" and "quizmaster"/"QM" and "cure dolly" and "anacreon"/"anal<anything>"
Disdain for any method or resource that is not his own website. Will claim his site is the "official" DJT guide and use "we" a lot while samefagging.

Have you ever posted a high quality, on-topic reply to someone’s question and it received no response?

Sometimes i attach an image I think is either relevant, at least tacitly, or at least nice or fun or something, lust provoking or not.

Does it work? Eh, sometimes, but not always, and images can eclipse your actual written content that way. Maybe there's more you can do to bring eyes to your post, but I don't want to be dishonest, I want to just state my thoughts and my opinions.

Chloe didn't need a sticky on an EOP board, but Fauna brought in 200 posts/min and turned /vt/ into a 10 minute board. Intervention was needed even if you think graduations aren't a big deal.
If posters are well behaved and keeping to one thread, it seems harder to make the case for a sticky, besides as a QoL saving the bake-migrate effort. I'd still like to see it though; something like a sticky for the vtuber awards or stickying a fast moving general during their debuts.

Regarding the general "holoboard" bias, I don't see any easy fixes.

>>10295
be the change you want to see, you can always ask a mod for a sticky if you think its appropriate or needed.
>>
i dont watch vtubers at all nor have i ever used /vt/ but ive seen how stickies are handled on other boards and yeah for the most part it's containment for big threads. ive seen stickies for famous deaths and stuff get denied because the threads weren't really gaining much traction in the first place. like im sure if gabe newell or stallman died we'd see something on /v/ or /g/ because otherwise it's gonna flood the catalogue but if so and so's brother's sister's mom's twice remove cousin died then yeah i mean it's not gonna slide the board. i can imagine vtubers being the same thing. scrimblo getting bimblo'd... tomato potato.
>>
>>10297
I don't have /vt/, but I don't see the problem with a different amount of "how much does it need to get a sticky" between boards if the way the userbases act is different.
If stickies usually serve to prevent the board being flooded, and what it takes to make users flood the board about news varies between topics and userbases, then yeah have different standards between boards *in response to users*.
>>
Stickying a graduation or debut is fine but for a board like /vt/ I think it should be reactionary only if the catalog starts being flooded. There is 100% an undeniable holo bias amongst the janny/mod team though.

The existing /jp/ thread was last posted in in 2014 so I think that it could be time for a new one.

Just to throw it out there at the very beginning: from a moderation perspective, /jp/ is doing just fine. Everybody is very happy in /jp/. The absolutely disruptive idiots have gone away which basically singlehandedly makes /jp/ far more manageable than the dumpster fire it was for some years of its existence.

However, as a user, there are parts of it that I'm not entirely happy with. /jp/ has the peculiar pathology it's difficult to discuss anywhere because the designated zone /qa/ seems to house all of /jp/'s ban evaders over the last five years and makes having a conversation about it impossible. So I was hoping to use this thread to discuss some of the issues that I think affect /jp/ as a board in general.

/loc/

A SFW locals board.

Uses a list-style layout similar to /f/ but tweaked a little bit, with a locked set of topics for regions in the USA. (Regions should be local enough to be relevant to users, but not so numerous that it makes posting too sparse or hard to moderate.. perhaps by area code, or groups of area codes in low-population areas) And some select international regions.

A user is only allowed to post in one /loc/ board. If a user (IP address) tries to post in a /loc/ board different from their origin board (determined by the first board they post in), they get a message stating they cannot change their "home" board for 30 days after their original post.

/loc/ region sub-boards are text-only like /news/, and have strict link-posting limitations. If any links are allowed perhaps only to a white-list of major websites like X, facebook (including facebook marketplace), news websites, etc.

Furthermore, we could employ stricter word filtering for posts, so people aren't just spamming the n-word.

Additionally, this could open up location specific advertising opportunities for local companies within relevant region boards.

Idk guys, it kind of just seems like you're discussing ways for you to ban people that made you seethe for longer. Just apply the rules as they are since most of what you're complaining about has nothing to do with length but with actual enforcement. Even if you just warned all of those posters who make "egregious bad faith bait threads" you'd be making a bigger impact on your board than if you were to give one random guy 7 days for hurting your particular sensibilities. Consistent enforcement is the number one thing that will keep that sort of posts at bay, not lengthy bans that will dissuade people from respecting what little authority you wield, let alone the actual rules of the site.

To be fair, you have to have a very high roman assimilation to understand the Codex Justinianus. The minutia is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of ancient Roman case law most of the punishments will go over a typical judge's head. There's also Justinian's harmonious outlook, which is deftly woven into his reforms- his personal philosophy draws heavily from a disdain for Platonism, for instance. The /biz/antines understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these laws, to realise that they're not just perfect- they say something deep about ROMA AETERNA. As a consequence people who dislike the Codex Justinianus truly ARE barbarians- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the genius in Theodora's existential catchphrase "'royal purple' is the noblest shroud" which itself is a cryptic reference to Phoenicians and their epic snails. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those stultus simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Belisarius' tactical genius unfolds itself on their barbarian kingdoms. What fools.. how I pity them.

not that it would/should change, this is just a fun thought experiment.

I'd make posts auto-lock or auto-sage after X number of days (determined by board, similar to sage limit) so that necroposting wouldn't happen. also get rid of the archive and thread pruning after 10 pages. instead, you could see posts from years and years ago, kind of like a more normal forum. maybe prune reply images after a year to save on disk space. I think there's a lot of valuable information on 4chan that disappears after a while. delete IP addresses after they hit autosage for sure.

I remember a discussion here about "why don't we have user registration" and there were some ideas about letting anyone make posts, but you need to have an account to upload images and/or make new threads. I think that'd be a good idea too, to combat spam and/or illegal content. I know that email addresses are free, but it adds another barrier of entry. it's not perfect, and it wouldn't be 4chan, but it might make things easier to clean up problem posters. if you have a user account, then you could have a tripcode assigned to your account and optionally (default: off) include it with your post.

how would you change 4chad? leave your ideas in the comments below, and don't forget to like and subscribe

ごきげんよう /a/, the moderation team has come up with a few guidelines to improve your experience on /a/ and encourage people to lurk moar, etc. This will only be stickied temporarily.


Please avoid making threads in “general” or “template” formats. Avoid chaining threads, copy-pasting OPs, backlinks, and the like.

Avoid redirecting all discussion of a series to a single thread. Users are free to discuss similar content in separate threads as long as threads are not being spammed.

As commonly recurring threads tend to suffer from degradation of quality over time, posts inside such threads may be held to higher standards in terms of rules 6 (Quality of Posts) and 9 (Reposting).

Threads in /a/ should be primarily based on anime/manga discussion. Consider using either >>>/e/, >>>/y/, >>>/c/ or >>>/cm/ for image sharing threads, and >>>/bant/ or >>>/trash/ for generals which have long since exhausted all fresh discussion. Mods will be more proactive in moving or removing threads when deemed necessary.

Discussion should be centered on series and characters, not the posters or communities that discuss said series and characters.

Aim for original discussion or content, both when creating OPs and posting inside threads, and allow threads to die naturally.

I humbly ask that the dev team adds support for WEBP images. Almost everything on Google images is WEBP format and as a frequent phoneposter (don’t laugh) I find myself having to spend unnecessary time screenshotting the image, cropping, and then uploading.

I assume on-site conversion is a higher server load than what we currently do (strip out image metadata except on /p/, strip out sound from webm except on /gif/),
How do you know what format the user wants the webm to be presented in?
What if the image is small enough to post in webm format, but too large to post in jpeg or png?

tl;dr a religion and philosophy board might be a good idea, but it also might not be

I janny /pol/ and see a lot of religious threads (mostly Christianity and Paganism) that go through. /lit/ jannies I believe have to deal with the philosophy side of off-topic posts, and /his/ jannies have to deal with probably both (correct me if I'm wrong). The main problem is that these people spur good conversation most of the time - but it's off-topic for that board. I think a good analogy would be talking about video games on /g/. I want to talk about operating systems and hardware on /g/, not Skyrim.

My proposal is a religion and philosophy board, to talk about theology and philosophical... things. I don't have a good idea of what it *is*, but I have a very good idea of what could go wrong. Please remember that I'm coming from a /pol/ perspective so I don't really have much to say from the "philosophy" dept. So here's the list of holes that I'm aware of immediately:

* Religion and philosophy are not the same thing. Is this close enough of a distinction to let these topics share a board?
* Religion has been known to cause friction throughout literally all of written history. See: jews and muslims, christians and jews, muslims and christians, protestants and catholics, catholic and orthodox, sunni and shiite... It creates a breeding ground for hostility.
* The difference between theology and piousness - "what did the author mean by this" vs. hypothetical "prayer threads". The main question is "who is this board for?". Is it for people who want to pray with other followers? Is it for people who want to discuss the logical implications of religious laws? Is it for both?
* We already have /his/, /pol/, and /lit/ - this is the hardest argument to counter because it's true. The race is on to find the real-world example threads that would get the off-topic BR on all three boards.

thoughts?
