4chan's /co/ board has some of the worst power tripping staff ever. And it's been that way for a bit over ten years at this point. No fun allowed. I believe when janitor applications open its mostly a sham, because it feels like it's the exact same people moderating, no one ever gets replaced. /v/ also has shitty staff at times. I truly miss the original 8chan /co/ board when it was active.
It makes my blood boil that some stupid zoomer likely half my age is going to push me around and ban me for bullshit that isn't ban worthy. The site's moderation is a fucking joke at this point and has been for a long time. The rules system is old and archaic, and they do whatever they want because Hiro is basically gone at this point and I get the impression that rape-ape, for many boards, doesn't care what his minions do or don't do. It's a mess. And yet, all the English speaking traffic for image boards still gets funneled to 4chan, leaving altchans with scraps of people.
I just got served a three day ban for talking about 8chan. I suspected I would get a ban for the post being a bit off topic to the board it was posted on, but no, I was 3-dayed for "Intentionally evading spam/post filters" because of changing the name of 8chan slighty so I could actually post my message. Ten fucking years later and you still can't say "8chan" on halfchan. Get over yourselves and move the fuck on, jesus chirst.
