>>22610 >Why is post in quotation marks? Because it seems like there's a deeper issue than "just" filtering links or the CSS theme or even the board being active in general.

>>22611 Not really. Thats an odd assumption. This isn't personal. I want to post on /pol/, and you don't want /pol/ to exist. Instead you seem intent on squatting on some insane personal archive slash blog. I don't begrudge you having a place to be crazy, I just wish it didn't come at the expense of the website as a whole, and me personally.

>>22612 >I want to post on /pol/ Then post here. I'm not doing anything to stop you.

>>22611 And even if there was some deeper personal issue, which how could that even be possible since I neither know nor care who you really are or what your politics or beliefs are, and its not, that still wouldn't make a post not a post. In theory even a blank post with just a picture is still a post and can carry meaning. A post with every character filled with just "a" is still a post, even spam is a post, or illegal content. Tbh there's nothing you can do to a post to make it not a post, therefore there's no reason it would ever be in quotation marks.

>>22613 What you are doing is stopping anyone else, I don't want to post with just you, thats kinda weird. So that is kinda big block to posting at all.

Calling it/pol/ doesn't make it /pol/, I guess is the fundamental misunderstanding occuring here.

>>22615 >What you are doing is stopping anyone else There's nothing stopping anyone from posting here. If they don't want to post something, that's on them. Or is that the issue? Not any of the supposedly "stupid restrictions" I have in place. It's the possibility that people don't want to post here at all. Regardless of how the board is run, and regardless of how attractive the board is made to be.

>>22617 They dont want to post here, and they dont. That is an issue. They don't want to post here because this isn't /pol/ That is an issue for sure. Why wouldn't that be an issue? And why wouldn't anyone want to post on /pol/? I don't understand what you are even driving at there at all.

**You know you don't need to flash the #rs every post, and no point in this conversation was your identity in doubt. I mean you never needed to flash it. But certainly not on every post, which is just bad BO etiquette. Its just not done man. Its amateur and shabby. Letting the side down**

You know you don't need to flash the #rs every post, and no point in this conversation was your identity in doubt. I mean you never needed to flash it. But certainly not on every post, which is just bad BO etiquette. Its just not done man. Its amateur and shabby. Letting the side down

Way to disable user deletion dumbass, oh god you literally just clicked every option on the BO panel. Okay you have no idea what your doing and its wild. Thats fine I guess but the proper thing to do is ask for advice and take it from older wiser BOs, not you know. Keep fucking up and telling everyone to fuck off for six years. Anyway clean up the double post would you? Since you insist on doing it yourself.

>>22618 >They dont want to post here, and they dont. That is an issue. So that is the reason. >They don't want to post here because this isn't /pol/ Cuck/pol/ isn't even "classic /pol/", yet that doesn't stop people from posting on there. And despite how, in addition to here, you also have places like Sleepy/pol/ and /mlpol/. >That is an issue for sure. Why wouldn't that be an issue? Because the "problem" is that you're worrying about people who honestly don't care. It's like all the posts niggerpill has been making about all the Nintendrones buying up the Switch 2. Of fucking course Nintendrones are going to be buying the Switch 2 because they're Nintendrones. However what about everyone else that isn't? You're spending so much time focussing on a small subset of people, that you're allowong yourself to block out everything else. What about all the people who DON'T post on Cuckchan? >And why wouldn't anyone want to post on /pol/? Laziness and easier to post about it somewhere else (Like the Goober thread they're already in, which is why they also don't visit boards like >>>/a/ or >>>/t/ when should be appropriate), or aren't "that" interested in discussing politics, or afraid of the board from it's reputation, or who knows any other number of reasons. >>22621 >the proper thing to do is ask for advice and take it from older wiser BOs Like Mark?

>>22622 >So thats the reason! You driving away user activity has been my stated beef for four years, how is that an ah hah! For you? >Other /pol/s are active! Oookay. Are you saying keeping this as a dead personal blog is a feature. Like this is value add in your mind? Please clarify. >The rest of your post What in the goddamn, negro, why are you posting on/v/, and then worse, telling me about it? I don't care about your personal life man no offense, but again your blog doesn't interest me. What. >I should talk to mark WHAT!? You accused me of having an issue with you and when pressed what possible issue i could have you said it's that noone wants to post on /pol/ i said they do though, and your response is no they don't and also listing the places they do, who run things very differently than how you run this. What is even happening. What the fuck.

>>22622 No, clearly Mark is awful. Is that not obvious? You should never ask a mentally handicapped individual for help. That's. I shouldn't need to tell you that man. What the fuck with you

>>22623 >Other /pol/s are active! I never said they're "active". In fact, they're as "dead" or "deader" than here. >why are you posting on/v/ Because it's the only "active" board when it comes to discussing anime, or tech, or capeshit, etc.? Are you also going to accuse the BOs of >>>/a/, >>>/t/, and >>>/co/ of "squatting" on their boards and "purposely" keeping them dead? >WHAT!? Are there any other veteran BOs on this site who I can talk to?

>>22625 >Naw they're all as dead as here No that's factually incorrect. And could be changed if you did your job better, perhaps taking my advice on board philosophy, and moderation practices. >I post on /v/ cuz it has activity Okay, someone has a pph thing huh? Hypocrite. You realize your boards dead and you don't care because you can post elsewhere. Well I care. And you not caring and apparently being happy with a dead board is not a reason to run a board. If you actively wanna run it badly then just give it away. I wish you wouldn't though, and would just not be this way. >Why dont you hassle miku, Codexx, or Frank Because they are doing a good job. And actively try to do a good job. And all three are good at the job at that. >Well who else besides Mark knows what they are even doing? You just brought up three people. Any one of them could probably help you. There's also the /b/ guy (hes weird), the /britpol/ dude, on the spanish side you got some hardcore vets even. Honestly I'd exclude porn boards and Mark, and you really can't do worse than you already are. And theres also the advice I have been giving you for four years. Not for nothing.

>>22625 You really don't need to #rs every post. It's gauche.

And you still didn't clean the double post. How are you so bad at this. Its easy man. Your working like six times harder than you need to be, for a negative result. Its just bad practice.

>>22626 >perhaps taking my advice on board philosophy Have you operated and been responsible for a board before? Or even been a BO? >Hypocrite Never said I wasn't >Well I care. If you "care" so much, why don't you post content instead of bitching about me all the time? You can check the logs for verification, I'm not that active of a person regarding moderation. And even have encouraged you to make whatever threads you're accusing me of "Not allowing", archiving those threads the moment they're created, and then using said archives as definitive proof to show how much of a raging jackass I "truly" am in the event they're deleted. >Because they are doing a good job. They're doing a "good job" keeping their boards dead, which then encourages people to post elsewhere? Okay >You just brought up three people. None of whom are from h8chan prime. I thought you wanted me to "learn" from "older wiser BOs".

>>22629 >Have you ever run a board before? Or been a BO? Yes. What do you think I did for the last four years here. Did you think I was just lurking on your board the entire time? I've actually run 7 boards, three of which I handed off to various vols last year who had really shown something while working on their respective boards, and who all seem to be doing quite well even without me now. Before here I've run boards elsewhere, and also voled under some rather excellent teachers on insanely active boards. Ive also worked as a global vol on several sites even. >Never said I wasn't Then why actively hurt your own boards activity? Why is that something you insist on and even defend? >If you care then post No, for all the various reasons ive spent four years and the past 12 hours explaining in rather gratuitous detail tbh. How are we back to the start of this conversation. How the fuck are you still not listening. >They're doing a good job keeping their boards dead They all have more people posting on them than you tho... What is even your point >even if I did what you said it wouldn't matter because look at them! Those are all slow boards to begin with, your squatting a high traffic board. Thats apples to oranges, without getting into defeatism isnt an answer to anything, its an excuse. Stop dodging questions and pilpuling around man. I dont wanna hear about your personal life, or excuses, or random shit you just thought of. What is your damage.... Are you actually a crazy person? Don't fuck with me, answer the goddamn question. >None are from h8chan prime All three are though...

>>22629 Why is learn in quotation marks. Thats twice tonight. Do you not understand what a quotation mark is?

>>22629 >Why dont you go through a months worth of busy work to show how bad I am The various steps I have already outlined in exhaustive detail, are already ample evidence of incompetence, a charge you do not even really deny. So aside from that being a valueless proposition, along with taking time from my life, would do nothing other than prove what you and I are not even in disagreement about, solely to us. Which is. Just crazy. I mean theres no step of that process which is interesting or attractive in any fashion to any sane individual, you just want me to hang out on your personal blog despite everything I've just said. You aren't listening, and worse when you are, you don't care. Your only defense is it doesn't matter, and look at the logs! You barely need to even ban people to keep it dead with all the bullshit youve fucked up on the options panel, like a kid in a candyshop, without bothering to think through the consequences, and when confronted with them, all you gotta say is "it doesn't matter" you see people trying to get traffic here and your happy they failed because they probably weren't from the original h8chan? Is this what I'm hearing. Nigger what the fuck with all this bullshit. You made me spend 4 years of asking you what the fuck, to finally say "lol, whatever, yeah your right, but lol" Why are you doing this. What do you get out of keeping /pol/ dead?

Why would "you" be in quotation marks. Under what circumstance would I not be me. Do you have any fucking idea what a quotation mark is?

Why do you keep multiposting? >>22630 >the last four years here >I've actually run 7 boards So you have just as much experience as I do, congratulations. >Before here I've run boards elsewhere, Such as? >Then why actively hurt your own boards activity? Because old habits die hard >Why is that something you insist on and even defend? Because my actions are something I can personally control. How everyone else acts is out of my hands. >No Then why are you here? Except to bitch about shit that is increasingly apparent to having never happened or taken place. Especially with how fast you conceded about "My friend Mark told me". >They all have more people posting on them Which is why this board is listed across the site at this current moment and they're not. And from what I understand the jist of this conversation entailing being your goal, that's the name of the game. Never mind the quality or the content, just get people posting. And by that metric, this board is succeeding better than theirs. For no reason other than you're complaining about me having "killed" this board having shit this board to the top. >All three are though... Miku wasn't the BO of /a/ nor /animu/. Meido currently runs Smug and Loleron runs PLW. So where did he come from?

>>22634 Okay, so we agree your board practices drive users away, and your defense of this is... Because you can control it. You don't want an active /pol/ even though you do, because that would be losing control. This is all a psychological thing about power. And you evaded the question as to your sanity. I see.

So cuckchan got hacked, and people are leaking shit left and right: >>>/v/1089304

>>22666 still, there are no refugees here from 4cuck :(

>>22676 Because most of them are fucking bots. Look at /vt/

>>22676 They all flocked to pigman's /pol/ for whatever reason.

>>22676 XD are we welcome desu

>>22712 Which one is that? I don't know who pigman is

>>24611 8kun.top

>>22676 Not as much of us relatively came here. Probably because they're not informed that this place exists and that a split even happened.

>>24613 Thanks, so what's the difference?

>>24628 The original 8chan (8prime) was an altchan run by Fredrick "Hotwheels" Brennan, a crippled midget living in the Philippines. During Gamergate there was a mass exodus to 8prime /v/ and given the /pol/ aspect of the whole thing and the ever-present dissatisfaction with the state of 4chan, some /pol/acks came along for a ride and made a home on 8prime /pol/. For a few years 8prime /pol/ was a magical place full of effortposting and oldfags which punched way above its weight in the volume of insightful discussion and influence on society but was in a noticeable decline circa 2018. After a relatively short period of time Hotwheels handed off the site to Jim Watkins, an expat pig farmer who had provided some support to the site in the past. Hotwheels became a born-again Christian for a little while and last I heard is a fat homosexual furry fetish artist but that's neither here nor there. Following an incredibly shitty attempt to "update" the site by Jim's son (who went by the name "Codemonkey") activity declined at a faster pace and finally the whole site went down in 2019 when Jim panicked following a spate of shootings connected to the board, most notably Christchurch. After a while (about 9 months IIRC) it was brought back as a pale imitation of its former self under the name 8kun, with no politics board (this changed a bit later, when it was brought back and rebranded as /pnd/ before apparently going back to /pol/ at some point) with virtually all of the activity on the site limited to the /qresearch/ board which is somehow even worse than the den of schizo boomers that you're probably imagining. 8chan.moe (<- you are here) was a site that a few board owners from 8prime started when 8kun was eating shit for an extended period and it has endured ever since. To give you an idea of the state of 8kun, before two days ago the most recent news I'd heard regarding that place was Jim had re-registered the original 8prime address to shill his own personal memecoin and every time I've checked on it in the last five years or so the activity on /pol/ was <1 post per month. I might have gotten a few details wrong in that so don't quote me chapter and verse but the overall outline is correct as best I can recall. 8kun /pol/ currently looks a lot like halfchan /pol/, but given what a fucking cesspit that place is I'm happy to continue never going there and praying that they never come here.

>>24694 Lol, thanks for the effort post Ii remembered some of that but but after 8cjan went offline the first time I just didn't hear anything else. So I missed a lot. Last I heard hot wheels was doing coke and banging hookers in the Philippines it somethings. Sometime about the feds shutting down 8chan. I caught this url at somepoint
