A lot of imageboard culture is considered normal or common these days, we are known on other sites. New faces are always flooding in trying to figure us out, they can't. Trends change constantly and this place soaks it up like a sponge.
And here we are trying to preserve it.

Every other chan that claims or wants to be an alternative to what this website became since 2015-2016 either gets invaded by the same crowd that populates this website because a link to the new chan is posted here or added to the chan indexes, or either manages to become a larping website where everyone pretends it's 2007 and nothing ever happened. Every mention of 4chan gets you a ban, normalfag lingo gets you a ban, memes get you a ban, naruto/dragonball posting gets you a ban, 3dpd gets you a ban, blogposting gets you a ban. Arguably this sound awesome and something everyone here who wants the old days back would welcome but guess what? The admin of these places are incompetent, can't push updates or fix shit and years old threads are left there for no reason making you feel like posting in there is worthless because who the fuck would still read a thread about the announcement of this anime airing on date x?

Going back on topic, if there's any good place that gets advertised or promoted, it's not on 4chan because everyone knows people read this place and they don't want the kind of people who now browse 4chan. I think you should look for other chans and start investigating there if the rules allow for such threads to be opened. A good start would be looking at the alternative chan indexes on 4chan X github. A series of indexes featuring different chans are contained in such links so there's enough material for you to work with

No discussion about real-life controversies or issues, and no discussion about drama/controversies from off-topic sites. I don't want to hear about it.

I was checking to see if warosu was still getting novels of spam all the time (it is) and saw this thread.

One of the things about the old internet is that people went exploring and heard about things from acquaintances who did the same. The internet is far easier to navigate today during the age of automated scrapers, listings, and of course broadband. If you apply yourself and start exploring you'll no longer be reliant on the five or so web giants and will learn some knowledge that you can apply for other purposes. Generally, the thought is that if a person can't be bothered to do this for their own self-interest, their ability to contribute as part of a community is a forgone conclusion.
When it comes to other imageboards the dangers of 4chan/8gag influence can lead to stress over the pollution of the culture and this can and does lead to self-inflicted strangulation and board death. On the other hand, if even just 1% of people on 4chan /jp/ moved to another imageboard it would easily overwhelm the board with superior numbers and the "natives" would feel alienated. It'd just be 4chan on a different url and thus destined to die as people return to 4chan for the same thing in a faster form.

>>36750833
The main issue with people making imageboards is that 99% of the time they build the scaffolding (the website itself) and then expect other people to create the building (the content). It's really unfortunate because it damages the reputation of non-4chan boards in general. It's like shovelware in website form or something.

Is 4chan culture that different compared to other image boards? I can't really imagine going through the trouble of moving to a new image board and then acting like the people you are running away from. In the end 90% of the responsibilities lies on the mods shoulders. If you act like an idiot, don't read the rules and shit all over the place you get the ban. Maybe lack of strict rules is what ruined this website, not the fact new people joined

Also why is warosu owner allowing that spam?

>Is 4chan culture that different compared to other image boards?
Flip that question around:
>Are other image board cultures that different compared to 4chan?
And the answer is sometimes. The biggest factor is whether the board is made to promote something original, or whether it is made in protest/derivative to 4chan.
The former are usually much more successful in terms of having a sense of community and original discussion.The latter tend to attract the kind of people that get the stick on 4chan, which isn't always unwarranted, and they usually don't change their tune when given a new place to get attention. Doesn't mean all spinoffs are bad, I lurk a few from time-to-time, but they usually aren't nearly as unique as boards with original board ideas and staff/posters that are genuine about it.

>Also why is warosu owner allowing that spam?
No beef with the guy, but it is kind of obvious he does the bare minimum to keep to lights on. I wouldn't trust warosu being around 5 years from now, though the archives are already preserved AFAIK.

What usually works out best to start is to have a group of people with interest in whatever the site is intended to pander to who can generate discussion, while also going out of your way (anonymously) to generate interesting OPs and keep current posters engaged enough.
So when other anons come across it, they don't get the vibe of it being "dead," forced," etc., and might actually post.

It would also help if they added an auto archiving/safe function to their image boards. There is no need to keep a 2013 thread around if nobody is going to post in there. Not to mention you also get a warning for necro if you bump. Just archive unused threads and make new ones.. That's the first thing people notice when they try different image boards: "is this place dead? when was latest thread started?". Keeping a years old thread in your catalog/index gives the wrong impression to new users

No, but every other board is non-English, so it's mostly a moot point.
Flags rarely come up as an issue because the vast majority of posters don't care to make it an issue, and those who do get the stick.
Much lower tolerance for posting in bad faith than 4chan, intentional or otherwise. Not everyone's cup of tea of course.

>Is 4chan culture that different compared to other image boards?
Yes and no. 4chan is fill with activism,outrage, and anger. People looking for a different place are generally going to focus on positive things instead. (of course 4chan's biggest rivals in size share the same outrage culture). I think part of it is just demographics, too. People grow older and don't want to fight all the time, even the biggest trolls eventually want to actually enjoy things again. 4chan can be a bit of a culture shock if you leave it for a while, because there's new vocabulary from a new generation and they have their own interests and experiences.

>>36760681
I think the other guy answered it for me. You do need to try hard and make threads and discussions and you'll go insane and lose motivation if you're doing it on your own.
I won't say the board software or the website existing aren't important, but it's the conversations that bring people to it and make them stay. It's extra hard because most people on imageboards (especially those that want to leave 4chan) aren't going to be social butterflies with boundless motivation.

>>36764334
Discord is the biggest competitor to imageboards, yeah. You pick one of them if you have a group of people and most unfortunately choose discord since it's certainly far easier. And the point? Well, you want to try and grow and rekindle the magic. You find like-minded people elsewhere and casually invite them. You struggle and struggle and it might be worth it.

I only started coming to /jp/ during the vtuber boom and although it’s surely very different now than it was 10-15 years ago, there’s a greater sense of net-based cultural history here than anywhere else I frequent. Interestingly, Japanese twitter has an older feeling of cultural continuity than American twitter maybe just owing to how big it is and how much bigger net-culture was in Japan during the 90s and 00s. It really does feel like the Japanese internet is about 8 years older.

As much as I dislike to say it, the majority of people that fled this shithole moved to the likes of Reddit and Discord to get away from rampant trolling, outrage culture, etc.
SNS, Youtube in particular since we had many content creators over the years that posted here and have all but left (visibly, at least).
This sites lack of moderation growth - thanks to moot - killed it. Self moderation has never worked. It never has, it never will. See any board that claims to be a "champion" of self-moderation (/a/ especially, one of the worst boards since the 2010 invasion of wherever the fuck the now-majority of the board came from)
The only system that'd partially work, would be a reward based Slashdot-like moderation. But I can even see that being abused. Moderation judgements being paired up randomly with at least a handful of others, if they mostly agree on the judgement, it is dealt. Reward for doing that would be faster posting and less captchas. If you want to go balls-to-the-wall, extra image slots. Cookie linked preferably, IPs swing about too much for most.
Will this happen? Will it fuck. How can ERPs happen with that? Exactly.

What's good moderation policy? Too much moderation means that moderators hold a disproportionate amount of input over the users. This isn't necessarily a problem if the moderators are in tune with board culture and user wishes. What seems to happen in a lot of different forums I've been in is that the moderation team becomes detached from the userbase, and they start to delete posts they don't like & ban users on a whim. I think it's a hard balance to strike. Me personally, I'd rather filter idiots and ignore shitposting than deal with power-tripping leddit mods.

The thing that changed with 4chan's moderation long ago is that the mods aren't active users of the boards. They have a revolving door of expendable janitors as intermediaries while the mods do whatever the fuck it is they do...presumably yiffing it up in Second Life or whatever they do these days.. VR chat?
Moderators should be an active part of the community and you can't moderate well if you're not, you just see glimpses here or there. It leads to bad decisions and a weakening of the community, but 4chan's sense of community is dead anyway so I guess it doesn't matter too much in that regard.

There are a number of alternative imageboards that have attempted to replicated early 4chan. Most of them either got flooded with CP and taken down or are dead due to a lack of users.
Other imageboards are trying their own thing, and some are succeeding at it, but usually still suffer from a chronic lack of users. This is a problem because it fades anonymity once posting habits start to be recognized. Basically becomes a forum filled with personalityfags.
They do have way better IB software than 4chan though like file uploads of 100mb+, 5 images/post, sound webms, ability to use VPNs etc. There's lists of them somewhere out there, I can't be bothered to look where I saved them.

I just dislike the concept of endless stream of information aka chatrooms. It feels like an eternal twitch chat where you have to be there from the beginning to get an idea of what is going on when something is being discusses. Also I did try discord and some of the major servers and no matter the size the community, users always orbit the same 3-4 people. Maybe I'm having the wrong approach, trying to fit in instead of making the most out of temporary social interactions but the fact I can come back to a thread, calmly read other people posts and then reply whenever I feel like, is just invaluable

There are plenty of dead or abandoned image boards out there though. I've even had people from certain generals on certain boards on this site moving on different chans out of protest only to get back here months or a year later because you just can't ignore this place long enough to make your new home any more relevant. Even though you spam links to the 'new home' hoping for more people to move. I think this is a peculiar aspect of 4chan, not image boards themselves

There isn't any functional difference between /jp/ and a chatroom. That's literally the case in /djt/. The only technical difference is that there's a cooldown timer and the chat isn't automatically updated by default.

Discord now has a 'threads' feature that lets you start like a group chat within the server without having to invite anyone as group chats normally work. You can use it to start a discussion about something without having to be present.

Aside from that though, the way I use discord is simply log on, check if anything of interest is being discussed, and log off. You don't have to sit in servers for hours on end ('endless stream of information'), that's arguably a waste of time. It also does depend on the server itself, some servers are more 'friend' servers than hobby/interest servers so of course your presence as a stranger is going to be mostly ignored in favor of the 'friends'.

Meh. Nobody ever bothers using that. Discord people just prefer chat rooms over threading posts. You could argue I could start opening threads myself but what is the point if I'm the only one doing it? Also I can just do the same here with all the perks of being anonymous and the certainty I'll be read by somebody eventually. The few discord I keep my eye on have a common interest that might be sharing of doujinshi or music with social activities on the side (which I don't really care about honestly) or discords about certain videogames where info and resources are shared

No, there is barely any functional difference between posting on a board using the 4chan frontend and a Discord chat room. What actually sets them apart?
The message list is auto-updated? Off on 4chan by default, but you can turn it on using the native extension.
Replying to posts days or weeks or even years old? Discord archives everything, so it's even better in that regard than 4chan with its week-long archive.
Centralized infrastructure? Yup, although 4chan administration is centralized as well and Discord ``servers'' appoint their own mods.

The biggest difference between 4chan and Discord is obviously that you don't need an account to use 4chan and can post pseudo-anonymously (as only mods can see your IP). But of course IRC doesn't need registration either, though you do need a nickname and it lacks other 4chan and Discord features.
The other difference is the ability to segregate discussion into threads, which I'd argue is actually just as important. I don't know about Discord's implementation of it but from what I'm hearing here it sounds less developed. But I think we need to admit that this is the major technical difference that separates 4chan and Discord, if we admit that anonymity is a philosophical choice. If everyone is dumping all their posts into a single place it's hard to have good discussions. I've had them quite frequently in single threads and generals but a thread even on /vg/ will only go to 750 posts which seems to be about the buffer length you can expect people to read although most people don't.
But if Discord or some other program organized itself in more of a traditional BBS style, but kept everything else, including instant refresh, then there wouldn't be any difference between it and a web forum. "Endless streams" of information don't matter, only ease of use and organization do. It sounds like you just don't want a fast board, regardless of what is being discussed.

I'm not advocating for Discord, but I do think it does have some good ideas. The backend is just too centralized and the frontend too chaotic. But a clone with decentralized servers and better organization would be a step in the right direction, like a return to Usenet or IRC. If it had anonymity we could replace imageboards entirely. We just need to understand the reasons it work the way it does: because its discussion structure works against it, not because you don't have to hit F5.

If your standards are that low when it comes to what you consider a chatroom, then you might as well argue that forums (remember anti-necroposting rules) and any sort of online communication medium is also a Discord "chatroom".
>Discord archives everything, so it's even better in that regard than 4chan with its week-long archive.
We can use third-party archives for that.
When it comes to reply, you can't do that on Discord since people would see that as weird (and this is important cause there's no anonymity). You also forgot another thing: on 4chan you can reply to a post on an active thread that was made a long time ago, unlike chatrooms. Though exceptions exist, like the generals on /int/.

Ive seen that first thread. and i took a brief look at kissu. No im not kuz or at all related to him.

So the most damning thing of what ive read is that he is a copyright troll, assuming thats true. I cant find anything else in there that is really worthwhile. I saw some people calling him a "monopoly" or saying he wants to take over all imageboards.. which is ridiculously silly. Is that what your talking about?

Is it because he owns a hosting company which he indirectly controls his sites with? But then again people there are saying hes just a harmless neet in his basement.

Is it the (unfounded/unsourced) claims that he sells data? To who lol? and what data? IP addresses of guro fetishists?

Is it the domain seizures? Considering he is just a neet he cant really seize domains, stop treating him like he is some all powerful dictator who can just seize domains from multinational corporations like namecheap.

Is it the lolicon that he hosts? I could understand that

It sucks, but the good parts of 4chan were a product of the 00's, and you had other sites like LUElinks with a similar culture. Some of these sites are still around, but they either changed into something different like 4chan and SA, or they stayed the same and bled users like GameFAQs. I like GameFAQs still but it's not as fun when it's so tiny nowadays. If your site doesn't keep up with changes in the net then it stops getting new users and the population ages and stagnates.

4chan as it is now works pretty well. The only issue is that big boards often leak out and dominate the smaller ones. For instance I remember 3+ years ago, /trv/ used to be like a different site with people who could tell you what some place like Angola or Mongolia is actually like and tell you what to check out there, whereas now there's more stuff like >>>/trv/2116653 where people only want to argue politics or discuss cultural stereotypes. It bums me out because the board used to be about looking past stereotypes, but now it focuses on them a lot. But, well, that's how centralization works. Every exciting new domain of things seems to centralize over time. It's too bad.

This is a big part of things. I think I said it upthread (my short-term memory sucks sorry) but there's a fine line between cultural preservation and paranoia over new people that sites really struggle with. In my view new people should definitely be welcomed as long as they're not malicious and the only issue is when a large group arrives at once, which almost never happens. It's good to have new people around, even if they're half your age. There's just a limit to how many people you can assimilate at once and that's why people would be resistant in namedropping their stuff on a 4chan thread specifically asking for it.

Sadly I must agree with this overall, but I'm sure there are still corners of 4chan out there where it can work. Not so much the "lurk 2 years" thing, but "please don't post ___ in this thread" comment here or there can work. The catch, of course, is that you need the person to actually have an interest in the thread and not just be in it to do the cool 4chan "shitpost" thing, which is generally what attracts people here to begin with.

That's the issue with tech people in general (I'm one of them so I know it well). We know some tech, so we think tech is the hard part, so we do some tech. Same shit with games, everyone wants to build something like Unity, nobody has any idea of what makes an actual good game. Nobody knows how to build a good community. If it's public it's going to be invaded, if it's private it's going to be full of power-tripping and gatekeeping fags.

I think there's something to be said about forums vs instant messaging culture. You can do both on imageboards, and the one you posted is a good example of forum culture. Longer posts, more delay between posts, posts are more substantial, less inflammatory. People usually try to steelman their arguments and all that sort of thing. Possibly something about blogging vs microblogging too. I think most people wanting the "old internet" back want something like forum culture.
A way to do that would be to artificially introduce delays to posts. For example, you're only allowed a 2 hour posting window a day, or one post by thread a day, something like that

Take a look for yourself, I don't think it's really something you can capture with a single image. "girls" or not most of the people there just seem completely broken. Daddy issues/taken advantage of/insecurity or whatever else threads are a dime a dozen, it's a genuinely sad sight. Imagine the most depressing post about somebody's life on /jp/ you've seen, crank it up to 20 and that's basically your average thread there.

the issue is that you can't take your "core community" with you to a new imageboard because you actually don't know anyone. that's the issue with anonymous boards and why you can't recreate what people had going on at /jp/ or any of the other boards. the regulars that did form the culture stew grew out of /jp/ and left, organically forming their own small communities of known online friends atop twitter or whatever. and for good reason, there's no way to forge meaningful relationships without going out of your way and identifying yourself.

you can try making a new imageboard though, there are tons of alternatives to explore and it looks like a lot of fun, but don't expect people to post there.

/jp/ died when moot made the sticky about Katawa Shoujo belonging to the board. Everything else after that was noise and the board should have been deleted along with the entire website then and there. Currently it seems like it's nothing but generals and teens posting about their favorite mainstream Vtubers, and some 2hu imagedump, literally zero content and zero reason to exist. I'm sure that even the mods and janitors in this place weren't here before 2012.

It is interesting to think about and in my opinion it's impossible because inherently people are the problem. At first finding and getting the people to come to your alternative then imagine you could somehow make the comfiest, best imageboard imaginable. For example let's just say the ideal version of /jp/. Where all the threads are on topic/quality, lots of oc, and great discussions/memes, etc. Eventually the outside world is going to find out about it and then it's just a matter of time before it's mass flooded with faggots pushing their own bullshit like discord trannies, pol/nazis faggots, off topic shitposters, and just fucking idiots from shitholes like reddit or restera. I reckon their could be a small window that is a true golden era where you have enough quality people that posts and threads moves quickly enough but the internet at large doesn't know anything about it yet.

/jp/ is in a golden age. Or a silver one at least. It's not spam 24/7, nor being raided all the time. It's not under the tyranny of the mods, nor completely lawless until 7 pages are deleted at once. People actually talk about otaku shit even if half of the people cry about the other half. /jp/ just suffers from being a board that wants to be a discussion board while a loud contingent wants it to be /s4s/ or something. /vg/'s creation might as well have killed old /jp/ but seeing what /vg/ evolved to just illustrates how shit /jp/ is. You could argue /r9k/, /bant/, /s4s/, and previously /qa/ were the result of /jp/, as well as all the shitty spinoffs by people who wanted to blog and make various kinds of shitposts. You could also argue the general threads here are a result of /jp/ taking "condense your posts" too seriously. I'm personally thankful most of the nutcases are gone as well. The ones who would freak out about moderation existing and post shit just because they wanted it to be deleted. Like, what has to be wrong with you to hide a cat in an image, then report it until it gets deleted, so you can be banned and then go laugh about it in ghost posts on the archive as if the mods saw it and got angry? I hope they're okay and aren't in an asylum somewhere.

If there's any problem with /jp/ it's that there's more and more frogposting. Although frogposting is itself a hilarious tale from being used to express good feelings to being used to express bad feelings to being used to shitpost, to NORMIES REE, to being used to shitpost even harder against mutant wojack cancer, to being nazi frog of keks, to being a shitpost against mods, to just being a shitpost people use to mark their post/thread as not being worth reading. The 'normies ree' cancer is especially funny since the frogs are what normalfags use to fit in now. There's even some mutant frog now to go along with mutant wojacks and mutant spurdos. That and there aren't anymore self-depreciating creative otaku types, just modern casual otaku, for lack of a better word, "cumbrains." There's got to be a japanese name for them that can be used.

I wish nostalgiafags would just move on already so /jp/ could come up with some new content for once. Or that people would stop being pussies and just make threads about whatever they want. They can make the same "I miss u /jaypee/" metathreads over and over, but not threads about some VN or doujin game they like. The reason idolfags have so many threads is because they actually have motivation to keep on even if they're the only poster in their thread, like that sad band-maid faggot.

>From what I gathered ye olden 4chan was largely underage.
Kind of accurate. The web was for newfags in the 90s. All the oldfags back then were hiding out on mailing lists and e-mail laughing because the newfags didn't know anything on the internet outside of the web existed. So a lot of the early web culture was people that first logged on way after eternal September.

By the year 2000 most forums and by extension I assume imageboards were a mix of
-underage teens and pre-teens
-of age teens and 20-somethings in college
-30-50 year old lonely adults

The latter group seemed to stick to places like AOL. While the first two tended to use everything and things spread quickly via word of mouth between them. All that happened is around 2009 a lot of people moved from their home forums and boards to the major social networks. The forums were de-ranked from search engine results in favor of places like youtube, twitter, MSM websites, reddit, and other centralized services. They cut out the independent middle man (forum owners). Instead of paying forum owners to run targeted ads for embedding Google adsense they just herded all the users into sites they or their ad partner's controlled. If you think it wasn't done by design you're kidding yourself.

The difference between the early-mid 2000s and now is this: Back then you found out about places like this via word of mouth from a friend, an open chat room, or from some post on a forum with a few hundred active users. Now the typical newfag's first exposure to this place is via things like youtube videos or screenshots posted on social media. A lower quality type of person is drawn here and the type of content they provide is different. Instead of long rambling posts like this one or some original image OC you get short one-line posts or pictures taken for attention whoring purposes. What takes more effort? Making a 3 minute flash animation with original music, voice acting, and characters or posting a webm of your tits? People go for the low effort option.

The old times simply can't exist now. The world changed. The people changed. All we can do is look back on it fondly and have faith that comfy times might happen again.

That's just your perception because what you want to talk about is allowed. If some janny sent you on a 3 day vacation every time you wanted to talk about something that there's no good other board to talk about it you'd think they were strict assholes. This board has a storied history of shit being arbitrarily declared "not otaku culture" because a mod didn't like it. Remember when we could have Japan photo threads that didn't need to be hyper-specific like Aizuwakamatsu? Not that that's not unique to /jp/, "off-topic" is just code for "janny druthers".

Can you guys just shut up and allow people to discuss things without your boring gossip and attention whoring? No one outside your circle of friends cares about your buddies and dropping names 50,000 times across imageboards will never make you more important than a random anonymous guy.
To 4chan /jp/ people: these guys are not the norm. There are good imageboards out there, but much like 4chan there are also bad people and bad imageboards. Don't let these people convince you that they're all like that. Hell, the good thing is that they get moderated instead of being the norm.

I guess it's a generation gap thing, but I just can't handle everything being 'chad' or 'tranny' and the other modern teenager speak alongside my escapism. /jp/ is certainly and undoubtedly better than other 4chan boards, but it still has all the trapping of a 4chan board nonetheless. I think this is a major thing that happens to people as they get older, they still want to talk to people that experienced the same things and that doesn't work on 4chan which has a revolving door demographic. The issue, of course, is that people spread out and I suppose that's already been discussed to death in this thread.

Half the generals on 4chan think the janny personally stalks their thread but the overwhelming majority of the time it's not true in the slightest and janny actually hates the whole thread for being fags. The reason active generals get more moderation is because the people in them report brigade everything they don't like and it floats to the top of the queue.

The general era we're all living in now was a direct reaction to the shitposter era. Old /jp/ was always a balance between "community" and "on-topic discussion" but when the community became so shit that shitposters would invade completely irrelevant on-topic threads, the mods diagnosed it as terminally ill and euthanized it. There were plenty of /jp/sies who supported it at the time because it wasn't getting better. You can't go home again.

Mostly unrelated to the conversation at hand because idgaf about gurochan, but I do know about straitjakit because this same drama has been plastered over multiple threads before.

Theres no way that some huge grassroots movement just spawned to shit on anything distantly related to kuz everytime its mentioned, its obvious that there are maybe 3-4 people who have a vested interest in hating kuz/kuz projects. As far as gurochan goes thats just straitjakit, who got banned from r/guro and encyclopedia dramatica because of his rampant dramafagging.

His completely retarded claims of "data-harvesting" and kuz "disabling https" and "putting malware ads on the site", the latter 2 are both easily disprovable (lol), have completed disparaged any potentially real accusations.

So really I think someone here should personally talk to kuz, and ask him. Instead of these pointless convos full of finger pointing and "y-your a samefag", an adult conversation could be had between two identities. Not that anyone on an altchan would ever be mature enough to do such a thing..

>> No.36843084

>>36843060
I really know nothing about this drama and personally appreciate the fact that someone brought back gurochan after its year-long absence, but the way Kuz acts is fishy. I've seen him spamfuck the azumanga server multiple times, so seeing him act like some responsible guy that's never done anything wrong makes him very hard to trust.

I don't know how people can take altchans when almost anytime they're ever brought up it just degrades into petty in-group drama. Just look at this thread - nearly 100 posts overnight and it's just a bunch of fags namedropping each other and trying to make the other lose face - and even with their supposed "havens" they're still here.

It's a double-edged sword our mods never post, but at least we don't have to deal with the associated personality-drama or whatever.

>I guess it's a generation gap thing, but I just can't handle everything being 'chad' or 'tranny' and the other modern teenager speak alongside my escapism.
I dunno, I've been here since at least early 2004 when the site still risked dying permanently and would go down at times. I was in college then and I don't even understand why I was here past 2007. I also didn't understand the appeal of raiding children's sites or prank calling gamestop either due to being an adult, but I've just learned to accept it in this time I guess. Honestly, at least these days it's just people whining about why women don't like them and about transpeople ruining video games and discords while TV pushes gay shit everywhere. If this were older 4chan, you'd probably be seeing constant threads about going to raid the discords instead of the discords raiding this site. Although if this were older 4chan you'd probably see more pro-trans people asking for dick pics. Anyway, moving on before I rant about why /v/ should have been deleted and /pol/ should have never had 3 incarnations.

The point, is I don't care about it as much myself since the site was dead before /jp/ existed and I don't even get the people who think of /jp/ as their home since I was around before 4chan became so obsessed with boards being different from other boards and before the internet was a replacement/extension for your life instead of just something you did seperate from your life.

>Can you guys just shut up and allow people to discuss things without your boring gossip and attention whoring?
This is the real problem though, not wojack permutations, not tranny/chud whatever, but namdropping. Namedropping tripfags, cosplay attention whores, and off-board people that made them angry. All throughout /jp/'s history, all throughout 4chan's history. Although I'm reminded of this (image).

>I think this is a major thing that happens to people as they get older, they still want to talk to people that experienced the same things
I don't know how old any of you fuckers are and that's the point. I'm sure there are people who are in their 40s and 50s here still acting like retarded teens.

>Would you mind linking the threads that you like?
Curiously, I don't like much of anything here. I think the threads about real life Japan and Japanese people needs it own board, but I don't deny train otaku are otaku, idol otaku are otaku, and men and women pretending to be anime characters aren't otaku. Someone who plays video games and sings anime songs for a living is an otaku as well. I'm also not against using other boards. Most threads I visit are in /vst/ now. The old threads I liked were the various MMO threads and doujin game and erogame like Illusion's games and Violated Heroine. I kind of miss seeing what new piece of shit Illusion would churn out with /jp/. I liked the old doll threads, but not the new ones. I also like the OC threads and would make one if I wasn't lazy, but they started attracting people who were undesirable and pretty much always contained people who would somehow form off-board circlejerks and start namedropping. (in fact I've never made an "official" OC thread, only threads about specific OC topics.)

As far as /jp/ goes.
>>36366778 >>36791904 and >>36586970 are currently the only threads that currently interest me. I'd make a thread I like myself but the new captcha always gives a sliding version on making a new thread, so I have to start up another browser than my intentionally outdated one. (since it won't slide on this version)

Going back to the first point about lingo, I don't really give a single shit since I'm not allowed to say things like 'lollercoaster' anymore. I think "glownigger" is a hilarious word, but that's because I love schizo rants like the time cube and computer god things, which is what that phrase is abbreviated from. It's also a good catch-all term for things like "feds", "falseflaggers", "dataminer" and such activities that you imagine to be carried out by 3-letter organizations. Also if /prog/ were still around, you'd probably hear that term literally all the time on /jp/ because of it originating from an insane programmer.

Posters were stupid back then and it was a different kind of stupid than now. Thing are better now than they were in 2006. Most posters were obviously under 18 then and had a childlike Gaiafag mentality. /a/ back then was saturated by stupid childish posts, as well as spammers. Something would happen like posters getting so excited about Code Geass that they bring down the entire site with spam posting. What exactly is there to miss about that era? Do you understand that most people that posted back then were underage including moot himself? I'm the same age as moot and he was 15 when 4chan was created. This wasn't some bastion of enlightened conversation. There were also the technology problems. Especially the interface that was bad all around, and you had to do stupid things like put noko in the email field to stay on your thread. There wasn't third party extensions, nor was there a catalogue.

There was a change in around 2009 when /b/ became internet notorious. Things definitely changed around 2011 when /v/ instead of /b/ became the premier board of the site. And another change in 2016 when /v/ was surpassed by /pol/. I see these dates as a transition points for new eras. To paint a caricature of the average poster there would be an evolution from: childlike Gaiafag - to rage poster - to passive aggressive ironic poster... and now to describe the average current poster of 2021? I don't know. It's easier to see it in retrospection.

So is the average poster worse now? Not really, they're just different. /a/ is now like /v/ was in 2012, and /jp/ is now like /a/ was in 2014; in regards of the mentality of the average poster.

The reason active generals get more moderation is because the people in them report brigade everything they don't like and it floats to the top of the queue.
This isn't actually true. Sometimes they really do take over the threads. (I've seen in the archive) threads be deleted and recreated because of some minor fuckup, not because of multiple threads or off topic or anything. The problem being, you cannot delete your own threads in /jp/ due to abuse by shitposters who used to delete their own threads and blame the staff for deleting on-topic things. So if someone deletes their general OP and reposts it with an error corrected, they have to have at least janitor status. There also tends to be a slew of posts deleted either badmouthing a certain thing or about a certain thing someone seems to not like that turns up in the archive. If they reported everything they don't like, it'd be weird for everyone to report things like just one member of a 5 member idol group.

The idolfags hate each other more than anyone else in the world. If something retarded is going on where all the posts about yui-chan get deleted (name picked out of a hat), it's probably because there's some sort of retarded in-thread history of militant shitposting around it.

Thanks for the reply and links. I was never a fan of raiding either, although some of the results were humorous when they were condensed into a post or image. Silly stuff instead of gore spamming, really.

>Namedropping tripfags, cosplay attention whores, and off-board people that made them angry.
I think that's more of a symptom than a cause. I'm generally pretty neutral on trips, but the outrage culture that you mentioned definitely became entwined with them. Names were brought up in this thread because of antisocial people, not because names inherently destroy things. I could say something like "try sephirothgoku92's imageboard" and it wouldn't necessarily derail the thread.

>I don't know how old any of you fuckers are and that's the point.
You're right, but you can still generally feel the age demographics of a board. It's nice to bring something up and have another person recognize it. I'm not upset at people for being young, I just have trouble deciphering their brand of irony and I can't discuss things that happened before their time.
