Just disable ad block or buy a pass, eventually they'll either delete the useless boards or do a fundraiser or something

The majority of people here will go to r/streetwear or r/malefashionadvice. The people who actually care about fashion will go to one of the fashion BBS because they're not casulised in the way reddit is.

So, how would you fix this problem guys?

>soc (point of such a thing on anonymous imageboard?)
>mlp (again they have better places to discuss their autism)
>most of porn boards, leave gif (as many said there are much better palces for porn, gif is kind of handy though)
>pokemon (imo they can use vg)
>keep creative and interest boards since they are niche and most people would have no better palce to go to
>create /film/ and separate it from /tv/ (tv as it is is b-tier meme-spamming that is purely unwanted traffic)
>DON'T delete pol for the sake of other boards (at least give them their own containment place so they don't shit up other boards)

if pol got deleted they'd just take over /int/ or go to (many of them back to) reddit.

i imagine /b/ /pol/ /gif/ and /sp/ cost the site the most money.

>>11821012
Yes, but those are also boards with most visitors. Along with v and vg and perhaps tv. Those are shitty boards, but deleting them is questionable way to deal with server problems. Also most of pol visitors are also from other boards, like with mlp this place at elast keeps them somewhat contained. Delete it and we will have /hitleryouthgeneral/ every day there. Reduce image size limit for most boards will solve huge chunk of the problem.

>when /fa/ gets deleted

First of all, we don't know if any boards are actually going to be deleted. That's only one of the various eventualities, as explained in the post.

Second of all, if any boards are to be deleted - we don't know if /fa/ is going to be one of them.

There's no real need to panic based off the information currently available to us.

making the default cooldown 5 minutes for non-pass users, and 1 minute for pass-users, would help. and it would improve the content of many boards.

Wow, I didn't know /pol/ was that high. All the more reason to delete it. It only brings what's against the spirit of this site.

I also didn't think /fa/ was that high, either. It's right above /soc/.

>> No.11821516

>>11821159
Delete /b/ and /pol/

Both boards are huge storage sucks and are costly to maintain. Almost more importantly, they are also the primary (perhaps with the exclusion of /v/) boards that give 4chan its horrendous public image, which in turn makes it an advertiser repellent.

Not only this but they are highly damaging to most other users on the website. "Hard motherfuckers" hear about the boards and their reputation for anti-PC freedom of speech, begin frequenting, mistake contrarianism and post-irony for genuine beliefs, learn terrible habits and behaviors, then spread to the rest of the website.

It could save 4chan.

>> No.11821528

>>11821516
Yeah, delete their containment boards and they will spread out across the whole site even more. Also those two are probably most popular and most visited boards there, deleting them will make 4chan loose shitton of visitors.

>> No.11821545

>>11821528
Well would you rather have fewer visitors (which means less required money for server space) or the deletion of boards doing nothing wrong?

There will be a massive flood of shitposting but we have moderators. All will move on in time, it would just be rough for a while

I would redirect you to a friendlier website but you are probably already a regular user there, they should just delete the porn boards to be honest

Less visitors also means less ad revenue.

>fewer visitors
/pol/ and /b/ easily make up 20-40% of visitors of this site. Those aren't "few". As>>11821560
rightfully said less visitors means less possible advertisers, which equals to less money. Deleting these two boards will crush this site and create a shitposting we all haven't seen before.
Also be hurt by these biards as much as you will, but they ARE huge part if 4chan culture. No reason to what this site down.

"Containment" boards are a fucking myth. You want to get rid of people you fucking ban them. Giving them their own space where they can indulge their bullshit just makes them worse and attracts more of them, and then they spread to the whole site.
/pol/ was a mistake.

>> No.11821860

>>11821847
This. When previous iterations of /new/ (at the time, it was proto-/pol/ and home of stormfront) was deleted, those people went on to other sites.

Deleting a board will have some spillover, but it won't last. /pol/ wouldn't shitpost on other boards as much if they didn't have a homeboard to go back to.
