For meta discussion
Whoever reported >>458, >>450, >>448, I'm not going to delete them. If you see somebody making an ass of himself, point and laugh, preferably with reaction images, instead of reporting everyone you disagree with or whom you hate. My vision for /animu/ rules is to delete only illegal or rule-breaking or glaringly off-topic content, such as spam, so as to avoid users self-censoring and stifling their creativity. It's a slow board right now so there's no need for sacrificing freedom of expression for making janny lives easier and you can't apply 4/a/ moderation standards 1:1 at this PPH because a lot of them were ham-fisted to quickly deal with large volumes of reports, plus all the normalfag jannies banning anons for racism and such. Those who like janny powertripping can just go to 4/a/, so what exactly would /animu/'s niche be in that case? For the same reason I restored >>709. As for what was going on in the GuP thread with mika tranny, I don't want to even give warnings for shitflinging unless they were chimping out especially disruptively, which was not the case. Just ignore, point and laugh, or filter out the namefag. I must admit I'm biased though since I have a soft spot for unhinged schizos as long as they're not shitting up the entire catalog. Also, >>406 was a raildex thread that I created with a pantyshot of Misaka and a schizo NSFW copypasta as the OP, because I thought it was pretty funny, and that got deleted and I got a 1-day ban. I'm not going to post it again but mods please let anons have some fun, policing for ""quality"" is a slippery slope and will piss off users who don't share the same tastes as you. You have to be willing to risk generating controversy by not deleting everything you don't like if you ever want to attract creative, free-thinking people instead of r*ddit NPCs and living in your sanitized echochamber. >>592 I'll probably change the spoiler image soon. Suggestions are welcome. >>604 >>622 I posted in >>371 what I think should be spoilered, but essentially I meant hardcore porn, not all NSFW. Additionally, I think the spoilering should be stricter when OP has clearly stated that he wants a discussion thread, not a porn dump, so e.g. mandatory spoilering for all NSFW images. I think letting the OP decide the moderation standards for his own thread is a good compromise between gooners and effortposters. >>681 >>702 >>707 I intend to continue being the BO for /animu/, since I don't see any great alternatives and nothing stops anons from posting to multiple altchans. 4/a/ is even more cucked than before, 8/a/ is much slower and has IDs and word filters, smugloli (original 8/a/) has too many irrelevant rules, PLW (original 8/animu/) is somewhat okay, but has an AI art, streaming and Vcancer generals as top threads, plus I don't want to give up on 8/animu/, since 8moe is one of the top altchans, kissu is actually okay and I'll keep an eye on it, and shamiko is a porn dump with kirara and avery being literal trannies. The rest are too small. If I end up being the last /a/non posting by myself in the desolate wasteland of altchans as everyone else goes back to r*ddit, xitter, 4cuck, or just joins the normalfag world, so be it. At the end of the day an imageboard is made up of its users. If the users are fun, creative, smart, enterprising, and stand up for themselves, its culture blooms. If it's made up of bots, shills, retards, and normalfags who use it as a discord replacement, you get 4chan. The moderators are to blame insofar as they articulate and enforce the social contract of the board, and thus which kinds of users it attracts. Blaming every slide thread or shitpost that gets lots of (You)s on them is disingenuous, but attracting low-quality users by creating stupid rules or enforcing them selectively is a valid criticism.

>>720 > I don't see any great alternatives We don't we just go to zzzchan/a/? it's a new one, and the rules are more lax than smugtards
>>725 >id's on /a/ hard pass
>>727 you can actually use vpns, any kind of vpns, so ids don't matter.
>>728 did you even read the sticky on this board? you need to go back.
>>725 >>728 you can use vpns here too. i would have understood if you mentioned prolikewoah or something like that but come on man
>>720 Would you consider doing reciprocal cross-advertising with /jp/ and /m/ while things are slow now?
>>725 >>727 Exactly. If you think IDs belong on an image board, you should go back to your home (Reddit). >>728 Why bother? I should go out of my way to VIOLATE THE SPIRIT OF THE BOARD? Plus many VPN nodes are banned (at least here) for 'spam'.
>>733 Sure! I'll add links to them in the board message if they do the same.
>>737 /m/ BO here, /animu/ is officially our friend.
>>740 Thanks! Added!
>>737 Hi BO, /jp/ has accepted /animu/'s friend request >>>/jp/2788
This is a red board now?
>>744 Thank you, added a link to /jp/. >>745 It sure is! Posting NSFW is allowed and rules around free speech are much more lenient here than on /a/, so I changed the theme to Yotsuba.

Sick of 8/a/, what a joke of a board All hail /animu/ >>720 We are internet nomads. We are forced to roam, because we refuse to bow down to normies.
>>746 >It sure is! But why? I can't stand loli and you're just copying the local /a/. They are the designated porn board. What kind of audience do you even want?
you should put the rules in the actual rules page, since that's where many users check to see what's allowed before posting. an empty rules page is a bad sign, and I make sure that it's filled out nicely on my board personally. if you really only want the rules to be listed in the extra pinned thread instead of the dedicated rules page, then at least point users to it from the rules page instead of it just being completely empty and looking like you don't have rules (when of course you do) also loli is anime culture
>>751 loli does a pretty good job gatekeeping the tourists
>>754 Enjoy your honeypot and its 'quality' posters.
>>749 >I can't stand loli >you're copying /a/ Hello newfriend, might I suggest some cool links you should check out? reddit.com/r/anime twitter.com/hashtag/anime 4chan.org/a myanimelist.net crunchyroll.com That should be enough to give you a start. Enjoy exploring the wide world of japanese animation!
>>757 Enjoy your woke anime and its 'woke' posters.
I'm not even into loli but I'll side with those weirdos over faggot redditors
>>754 I don't know about that honestly
>>775 we just saw it happen right here on this website last week
>>751 Thank you for the suggestion, added a link in the rules page.
>>732 >>734 No vpn nodes are banned there at all, judt shows you never bothered checking out. Anyway we will never get anywhere here as long as there’s another /a/ in the same website, a trojan horse by 4/a/ jannies
What exactly do you find wrong with 4chan? Even if you do hate it, there's already plenty of other imageboards. It doesn't seem like there's a reason for this place to exist (especially considering how dead it is, lmao)
>>787 Same could be said of most of the site after the shartpocalypse
>>787 It's only a matter of time before the next 4chan hack.
>>787 >What exactly do you find wrong with 4chan? The leaked janny board is here: https://bvll.neocities.org/j/. Educate yourself before going full retard. >It doesn't seem like there's a reason for this place to exist (especially considering how dead it is, lmao) Thank you for your profound insight. I am sure that 99.99% of websites on the Internet (i.e. almost everything outside the gigacorpo walled gardens) will have no choice but to sudoku themselves after hearing such a decisive argument!
>>795 >BO having a meltdown Also, the janny board looks fine to me
>>800 >>799 It's only me and you here anon.
>>802 >unironically thinking anyone on the internet is real both of you are figments of my imagination and you can't convince me otherwise czechmate schizos btfo
>Original owner makes a pinned thread explicitly stating that the rules are the same as 4/a/ >Original owner decides to give the board to an anon >Second owner replies to the pinned rules thread saying they hate 4chan and that nsfw is now okay Second owner is a fucking retard. There's a reason why you don't have porn on a blue board. Good thing this board is dead.
>>806 Most anons don't seem to think that strongly about NSFW. Do they at least require to spoiler it? I see no rules page anywhere. But the really critical issue is that someone random has ownership now. When 4chan goes down for real, we'll probably have to make another board, because /a/ is ruled by cancer, and /animu/ might have the same problem.
>>809 The rules page is on https://8chan.moe/animu/rules.html You can see the link when you open the reply menu at the top of the page. It redirects to >>2 anyway. >someone random has ownership now Who's not "random"? You? >When 4chan goes down for real, we'll probably have to make another board >we You are welcome to create another board if you are unsatisfied with the present ones and think you can do better, as this is 8chan. Competition is good. Vote with your (you)s and support whichever board you think deserves it. >>806 >There's a reason why you don't have porn on a blue board. Good thing this is not a blue board, then. Porn is recommended to be spoilered, however.
