I feel that the quality of the board has deteriorated as a result of certain tripfags.

It's not possible to filter certain users, as /some people/ start multiple general threads with their completely irrelevant tripcode just as a kind of attention-seeking. Filtering this trip will then also exclude you from several general threads.

It effectively bypasses tripcode filtering, in the same way that /some users/ kept on changing their trips in order to evade filtering until they had their posts removed.

I think it's an issue. What can be done about it?

I think it's an issue, but I have no clue what to do about it. I mercilessly bully all the new tripfags and tell them to drop their trips but that really doesn't seem to be working.

I swear /fa/ has a bigger problem with annoying tripfags than any other board I've been on. Every day there's 2-3 more trips that I've never heard of before. Tripping on an anonymous image board is absolutely pathetic, but for some reason all the insecure kiddos that come to /fa/ think they need to do it

where else would they trip?
why do you care

do you actually care about board culture

if you cared about board culture you'd care about tripusers who actively support board culture instead of new users who actively suppress board culture by posting the same things every day for the past 6 years

do you really want your board culture to be general threads, haircut recommendations, and dumps?

have you seen what happened to places like >>>/ck/ ?

most trips are new users (like you)
>do you really want your board culture to be general threads, haircut recommendations, and dumps?
no, most of those threads are stupid and attract the worst kind of people. same thing with EDC threads, tumblr threads, watch threads, etc. plenty of tripfags post in those

>have you seen what happened to places like >>>/ck/ ?

Sieg has always been a source of crude humor, trunks is a delusional dimwit with shit taste in literally everything, ranging from clothes to women to even cereal.

>tripskank is alright because you just can't hate her too much (she has aspergers)
Probably the only trip who contributes anything. It's really a shame because she used to post so much more, until you fucking autists started replying to everything she wrote with screenshots of her and shunned her away.

>birthday is really cool (especially since he realized how retarded tripcodes are and dropped his)
Better than most.

>fascist faggot is helpful and not obnoxious
In the Top 5 who actual post

>there might be a few others but i can't think of them
Others that can actually put words into sentences and makes something coherent? No, each and everyone one of the new year trips are trash, except maybe Huckleberry because he only posts waywt and is original, versus shitposting.

>It's really a shame because she used to post so much more,
she normally posts without her tripcode because she's not a complete attention whore

/fa/ has always thrived on tripcodes it's part of the board culture

People trip in general to have a unique indicator, so they're not grouped together with the rest of the Anon's. It's a self-esteem thing, probably why he does.

I've always been for namefagging; if you want to differentiate yourself from Anon's, then do it. I've never seen a purpose for them, especially when contributions are minimal.

Somewhat true. It really only works with posters that actually contribute great advice and great fits. Lately I've been noticing a lot of tripfags posting in w2c and fuccboi threads with nothing more than a "idk" or "they look nice". This isn't excusable even if they were anons.

The trips you're probably talking about have moved on from /fa/ to update their tumblr. Now we only have Trunks and several dozen tripfags who are trying to get their name out there without actually contributing anything.

Post great fits, post great advice, and know your shit.

Early /fa/ was just a cliquey version of /soc/ before /soc/ existed.

Transitional period /fa/ (my tripfag era) had a mix of informative trips, vain ones, and shitposters.

If it's come to the point where *trunks* is the best you've got, I feel bad for the board. However fucked up it was a few years ago, we had at least both good and bad.
Oh, I almost forgot.

Ancient /fa/ had girls.

Middle era /fa/ had fewer girls and lots of thirsty behaviour.

Today's /fa/ has no grills.

I come here once a month for two hours to check what's going on in the fashion world.

Other than that I think this board is shit and inhabited mostly by 17y/o kids wearing mall-tier clothing.

Old /fa/ was good, around 2011. There used to be quite a few trips around with taste and the wallet for it.
