What is /ar/? /ar/ is Nanochan's archive board. It may be used to post images, books, videos, etc. which are in danger of being lost from other websites either through censorship or through the passage of time.
Is /ar/ a file upload service? No. /ar/ is intended to be a place to compile important content which is to be linked from other places in nanochan but is not particularly relevant to the contents of other boards. /ar/ is guaranteed not to go down during the lifetime of Nanochan.
Please mirror all information you are interested in to your own local storage. Nanochan does not have super-reliable servers; it is not suitable for storage of extremely important/rare data.
What are the rules? Global rules apply. Threads which are not focused on the uploading of content (i.e. off-topic) will be removed.
What happens when threads get slid off the catalog? Threads will get slid off the catalog eventually. However, this will not cause any data loss, since files and threads don't actually get deleted when this happens: they are simply no longer linked to in the catalog, and posting to them becomes impossible.
Additional information /ar/ is not listed in the overboard.
The bump limit, post limit and thread limit are all set to 1000. In this manner, up to 1,000,000 posts may be accessible through the visible part of the catalog.
Rules amendment: The posting of content which is extremely unlikely to be made unavailable externally is not permitted and these posts will be removed and their files unlinked. Examples: don't upload your anime episodes, films, reaction pictures, etc.
I'd suggest that there should be a rule against too specific threads. i.e. Don't make a thread per file you want archived. Threads should break up categories of content.
