Meta thread Anonymous 07/23/2018 (Mon) 04:35:37 No. 2547
Hello everyone. I recently claimed the board and a couple of anons were interested in having a meta thread, so here it is. Please use it to suggest and discuss changes to the board (such as changes in banners and other special images, board features, or rules), to (eventually) discuss moderation, or any other topic concerning the board. If you're curious about me, I was on /sthg/ from its creation in 2014 until a few months ago, and now I'm here every day contemplating the fast. I've always been low profile so I've never used a name, and I plan to keep it like that. Please enjoy the board and let me know if there's anything I can do for you guys.
>>23443 >I would think the correct approach here would be to ignore and hide things you don't like, which I remember pretty clearly being the motto endorsed by Moot, while the higher-up staff are the ones to take action on weeding out the worst Yeah, you're right. Unlike halfchan, this board is decently moderated & has a BO to weed out what is & isn't allowed here, so reporting & ignoring will take care of any issues on this board like the post you referenced. And nah, you haven't done anything wrong or broken any rules yet, anon. If someone gets a bug up their asses about, say, a Sonadow pic, there's nothing to worry about so long as the pic isn't NSFW or anything like that. Again, this is a place for discussing Sonic the Hedgehog & so long as you aren't being a troll or trying to shut down any discussion you don't like, you're gonna be fine here.

>>23530 It's not about the guy wondering, it's about the other guy not immediately calling him a faggot.
>>23535 That doesn't make those posts any better, my man
>>23536 >>23530 There's nothing wrong with people respectfully discussing board issues and history and arguing their points in the thread specifically made for that purpose. What's funny is someone coming in more than 2 weeks after discussion had died down to make a pathetic attempt to create drama while adding nothing of value to said discussion and calling everyone else he didn't agree with drama whores.

Hi BO, thanks for reply >>25249 (25124) >I'm not sure what you mean I mean to become affiliated boards so we put eachother in the board message, just like our pals at /digi/
>>25252 Thanks for the suggestion, but I think it might be best to wait a few weeks and see where the board goes.
>>25254 Aight, thx
Made a rentry out of the the 2023 pastebin https://rentry.org/sthglinks
Old threads are being bumped for no reason. You may need to start locking some
>>26846 >soyjak.party Designated Backup Who designated that as anything? Feels like it's one faggot pushing it. Never heard of it before and it has no relationship with this place. >>26857 I don't mind so much that they're old as some are good, but overall I feel there's too much trash on the first page right now.
>>26876 Fair enough then. Just want to tell the mods they've been doing a great job
>>26876 >soyjak.party Designated Backup Removed.
>>26876 >Never heard of it before and it has no relationship with this place it's just duofag samefagging and posting his slop
>>27287 Good >>27291 kek
I'm probably going to start being slightly more strict with moderation. It's okay to be lenient and take things slow when there's just a few people and posts, but when you blink and people made hundreds of posts and several threads it's just not possible (and probably not as necessary) to be as nuanced. I also think something more aggressive should be done about the threads being created/revived, but I generally don't like being a rulecuck and right now it's probably best to wait it out a bit. Also since you faggots post a lot I'm rising the bump limit to 750, which I think is how it was on /vg/. I'm not sure what the global limits are and whether it's going to take effect, but I think it should go up to at least 700 posts.
>>27517 >threads being revived My suggestion is to archive every thread that was created before 4chan went offline so we can have a fresh start, with the exception of that DC story time thread.
Hello, I've also come in peace as somewhat of a refugee of halfchan. Is there something I should at least know of what to do so far so I don't wind up stinking up the place? I just want to discuss stuff and have a good time while making silly jokes so far. Also I agree to archive the old threads before 4chan imploded if you guys want a fresh new start.
Some of those old threads have some cool stuff in them. Maybe we should click that "Archive" button on them
>>27736 I'm not going to wipe the whole board just because you niggers got here, what the fuck. >>27742 >Is there something I should at least know of what to do so far so I don't wind up stinking up the place? I just want to discuss stuff and have a good time while making silly jokes so far. This should cover most of it: https://8chan.moe/fast/rules.html 4channers seem to struggle the most with rule 3. I probably should add some guidelines about creating new threads there too.
>>27852 Can you show me some examples of posts that you think struggle with rule 3? I don't see any
>>27876 Yes, gladly. Here are some, these are all from the same poster. >>27666 (26872) >>27672 (26872) >>27630 (26872) >>27622 (26872) >>27813 (27767) >>27814 (27767) >>27711 (26872) >>27454 (26872) >>27474 (26872) If this kind of shit is almost exclusively what you post, you're doing it wrong. There are other things too but some of them require more nuance. Some of posts from fags that are very clearly obsessed or horny about their character crush and create posts just to show that I would struggle to call high quality, but it's not at a point where I'm gonna go out of my way to do something about it yet.
>>27983 Do what? Post examples of bad posters?
>>27979 Hmm alright. I wouldn't call the posts you linked good but I didn't realize those were all the same poster. It's clear now that you've pointed this out but it's not something I would paid attention to >very clearly obsessed or horny about their character crush Sorry we can't help it. At least we have character-specific threads though
Hey, I was wondering what information the owners/mods can see about the users that post on /fast/. Can you see IP? Or can you just see which posts come from which user? I'd appreciate knowing.
>>28569 No, we can't see the bare IP address, but we can see some information derived from it.

It's interesting looking at this thread with all its drama from 5+ years ago. Makes you realise how pointless most of this shit really is. How many of those posters still even come here?
>>28639 Like general location? City or provider?
>>28737 fixed.
>>28969 Just hashes derived from the address, and the AS number.
I touched up the rules a bit. Added a rule about new threads, and changed an existing rule to mention that meta topics should be discussed here.
It was mentioned here: >>30151 (29934) What do we want to do about redirecting posters in the general thread to a thread specifically about a subject? E.g. "Don't post shipping here, there's a shipping thread." Is it just for when a particular subject is posted too much? What constitutes too much?
>>30160 Not him, but I do agree that containment threads for certain topics are a good thing. If a containment thread exists, I feel like that sorta thing should be discouraged from being posted in the general thread. I don't think it should be a ban-worthy thing though.
>>28829 I know right? Some of the threads on this board are 10 years old yet are still up. It's a very surreal feeling knowing that some of these anons likely no longer come here and sooner or later that will apply to all of us.
>>30160 I guess the tl;dr is that I agree with >>30217 Personally, I think certain topics are posted just for the sake of circlejerking or avatarfagging and I'm not a fan of them, to say the least. So probably confining them to their own thread is the best solution for now. If you're asking me, I think posts like the ones I mention should happen the least possible, but I don't think it makes sense to get too much in the way of the fun at the moment and I'm not going to go on a ban spree either. That said, like it was mentioned on the thread our regular pet spammer is a fan of telling other people what to do, including directing anons to other threads, so some of that comes from him.
