[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]Splitting up /b/
/b/ on this imageboard has long been plagued by a problem. It is supposed to be a "random" board where everything is allowed. On websites like this, it tends to attract posts of reasonable quality, as well as very low quality posts and threads such as dump threads or other kinds of one-liner thread.
I believe that people sometimes need a place to shitpost and make low effort posts. People also want high quality discussions. As such, I propose the segregation of /b/ into an "order" and a "chaos" board, where the "order" board has stricter rules regarding posting quality, and the "chaos" board has none save for the global rules. This kind of arrangement is very similar to that of e.g. sushichan with their /lounge/ and /hell/. The "chaos" board would not be shown in the overboard, therefore, any low quality posts made there would not affect any other users. Once this change is made, /b/ would be deleted and put into read-only mode.
Since this would be a major change, I'd like to ask for any objections. If there are no significant objections by next week, I'll do this. Please discuss. Thanks for your input.

[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]nanochan Dark Theme
I was bored, so i've made a simple dark theme userstyle.
Changes
>Now background is dark duh
>Most of the formatting is the same or similar.
>Inverted the image on the main page to fit the theme.
>Made the tables better in log and stats
>Made the posts in the catalog bigger and removed the scrollbars(so i can finally scroll in the catalog without getting stuck)
>Made the default size for the postform bigger(so i don't have to resize it every time)
Color coding
>Cyan is stuff you can click on.
>Red is titles/topic.
>Yellow is subtitles, replycount and date/time.
>Green is names.
>Purple is hapase/mods.
You're gonna need a userstyle extension to install it, then create new userstyle, paste the code and apply it to nano domain. Hope i didn't forget anything, code follows:

[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]BOARD TOTAL RESET
I think the recent waves of pigchan immigrants have caused a lot of damage. In my opinion, everything on the website needs to be deleted and everything reset to its initial state. The site should be shut down for 1 month to get rid of the pigchanners, leaving behind only high quality posters who are willing to wait a month.
Is this even a good solution? Are there better ways to do it?
Also, get rid of /pol/ and /v/. Those boards are cancer, /v/ has too many discord/steam/wangblows faggots and /pol/ takes everything WAY too seriously. Leave /b/, /g/, /a/, /o/, /k/, /meta/, /test/, and /ar/ only.
/meta/ R:24
[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]that was a lotta damage
The recent nuking of tons of threads and posts was indeed caused by a bug in the Nanochan software. When the spammer bot-spammed his crap, the bug was triggered, where it was previously unnoticed.
Basically, when posts are slid off the top of cyclical threads (such as the one the spammer was spamming in), I failed to specify the board they were to be deleted from, so instead of deleting e.g. /meta/255 it deleted post number 255 on ALL BOARDS. This issue has now been fixed.
I have merged the Posts table of yesterday's database backup with the current database. Sorry for the fuck-up.
No files, boards or mod accounts were affected.

[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]Banning the Cucknet
I have seen discussion about the fact that nanochan is accessible through tor2web gateways, as well as concern that this would contribute to an influx of low quality posters and normalniggers.
Tor2web also allows the gateway to steal passwords and other info. Therefore, all moderator logins will certainly be blocked if they originate from a tor2web gateway.
Tor2web can be blocked - the HTTP Host: header can be checked and if it does not end in .onion the user will be blocked. So it is technically feasible to treat cucknet users differently.
Discuss in this thread what to do with them. There are two possibilities:
1. Block cucknet users entirely.
2. Stop them from posting; force them to lurk until they install Tor.
I'm leaning towards option 2.

[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]IMO v3 Hidden Service address should be put on the front page (it used to be displayed on top every page too what happened to that?). Considering the upgraded encryption algorithms (v3 hidden services replaced SHA1/DH/RSA1024 with SHA3/ed25519/curve25519) and new security features that distribute a hash of the .onion to HSDirs instead of the its plaintext form, I don't even see the point of having a legacy hidden service in the first place.
Also, making people click past big warnings just to use an additional layer of encryption is a really bad practice as Tor already has good encryption (see above) so I think just the http version would be adequate.

[D][S][L][A][C]Streamchan
I like the idea of having a tor only imageboard, but hapase's bad moderation is killing it. She shills everywhere even on pigchan and once on 4chan. Then when it becomes popular, she tries to impose arbitrary rules on /b/ of all boards. And the new mod she appointed is deleting threads on /b/ for "degeneracy". I don't think she's going to change.
I propose a new Nanochan, one with more emphasis on freedom of speech. I will remove all boards and threads except for one cyclical thread, the /stream/, which will be totally unmoderated and even allow cp and spam.
If there is enough interest I will make this.

[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]Nanochan over SSL
I have identified a solution to the problem where refreshing a thread or catalog/overboard causes all the images to be revalidated.
However, for some retarded reason, the solution works (in Firefox/TBB at least) only if you access Nanochan through HTTPS. Therefore I made a self-signed certificate for this purpose. Nanochan should now be accessed through https://nanochanxv2lxnqi.onion - you will need to add a permanent exception for this certificate, as it is self-signed rather than certified by a (((CA))).
The SHA-256 fingerprint of the certificate is:
BC:0E:26:AA:30:FA:AD:44:C5:EA:69:7F:FF:DA:D4:EE:4E:A0:7C:A7:C6:B3:E7:76:E6:EE:B9:B0:41:10:65:4F

[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]Nanochan Bunker
This bunker is hosted on a different physical computer, with a different internet connection, in a different country. In case the main Nanochan goes down for an extended period, you may post here. Currently /bunker/ is locked because I don't want to moderate an extra website for CP and the like.
>But what if you're dead/incapacitated/on holiday and can't unlock the bunker in case of issues?
That is why I need to appoint a bunker administrator. The bunker administrator's job will be to unlock the bunker during the time when Nanochan is down, and to moderate the bunker during that period.
>How do I apply?
Email me at <37564N@memeware.net>. Include some basic information such as:
* How often you visit Nanochan
* Whether you will still be visiting Nanochan a long time from now
>What are the requirements?
You must be a user who visits nanochan at least once per day, so you would notice when it goes down.

[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]Progress information
Here's a quick update on what's going on with the software side of things.
1. I've started to rewrite Nanochan in C, under the name `sakamoto`. This will be released as a more "proper" software package which people can use for their own imageboards, although of course the main priority will be its use on nanochan. Expect this to be done in maybe a month or two (or three) - I won't be making major improvements to the lua version in that timeframe.
2. I have begun to generate a v3 hidden service name for nanochan, but this will probably take quite a long time since 8-character v3 onion names are apparently much harder to generate than v2 onion names, and the recent hyperthreading performance slashes in openbsd haven't made that easier. Hopefully it gets finished around the time sakamoto does.

[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]I'd just like to mention that using the [Update] buttons, in catalog, overboard and thread, will speed up your update as compared to pressing F5 or the refresh button.

[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]Spammer-kun whack-a-mole games
hakase, I have a few topics:
1. Do you still intend to make a "most recent posts" overboard? The purpose would be to help delete botspam replies to non-spam threads.
2. Do you use any scripts to help you delete faster? Most recently you cleaned up pretty much all the spam by yourself before I even noticed it. If yes, share?
3. Suggestion: "mark for deletion" function in overboard. Instead of deleting one thread at a time, mark multiple to save time and avoid the annoying "thread doesn't exist" time waster.
4. Suggestion: delayed deletion queue. When a thread is "deleted" it becomes immediately invisible to users but mods can still see it for say 1 min, during which time it can be undeleted.

>adding javashit (proof of work function)
>removing compatibility with text browsers (image captcha)
>getting off tor (removing more anonymity)
>adding prohibitive posting restrictions
Since the solution to the problem requires the addition of one or another cancer to the software, all boards on Nanochan will be locked indefinitely.
It was a good run. Kind of.
