Fun Fact: People who become a janitor on /jp/:

1. Must be over the age of 21 (not 18 as some would believe)
2. Must provide real information about their name, address, and phone number (for direct contact via the moderators)
3. Must go through an IN-PERSON orientation (not any of that online junk you think)
4. Must be active on the board, but CANNOT have been on the board for OVER 3 months (moot wants literal normalfags)
5. Can be terminated at ANY time for NO reason whatsoever, even if said janitor has been doing great work for months and months (just like real life, if you do a great job but aren't good at socializing, kiss your job goodbye; it's better to suck the mods' dicks than do your job on 4chan)

Trust me, I've gotten to know a few janitors via the IRC chatrooms. You people think it's so easy to become a janitor, but when you get literally TENS OF THOUSANDS of applications in the span of a few hours, moot is picky as hell, and only the cream of the crop (aka 10 - 20 people) make it to the janitor position.

This is a contradiction. You are not considered "active" if you haven't been on the board for over 3 months.

The only one of these that I wouldn't believe is 4. 1 is probably a preference but not a real rule.

Moot does prefer hiring on the most normalfag staff as possible because he knows that nerdy shut in types are more likely to go mad with power. What he seems to forget is that normals still do it, its just human nature.

>> No.6853241,12 [INTERNAL] 

>Moot does prefer hiring on the most normalfag staff as possible because he knows that nerdy shut in types are more likely to go mad with power.

The /r/ mod told me Moot likes normal people in the staff because they tend to be more patient with other normal people rather than a person who spends hours in one specific board.

As you can see this janitor barely deletes android games threads, idols and other things, they want to turn 4chan into a friendlier imageboard.

Also, he told me Moot is worried about the traffic on 4chan, apparently people are migrating to other sites.

Image boards always fail because there are too many of them and they're all quite niche and mainly cover just one board/subject. If you combined the userbase for all of the various *chans into one site, I imagine it would be quite busy.

Your posts are awful. They're also obnoxious and disruptive and either drive people away or against you. They'll do that no matter where you go. That's why /jp/ is now tightly moderated. That's why your "splinter boards" invariably fail.

Internet doesn't break the chain of cause and effect, and 4chan is not some magical place where rudeness makes you friends. When you're obnoxious, people won't talk to you. When you're harassing them when they talk to each other, they either go somewhere else or call the security, which proceeds to throw you out. Either way, you end up left alone with noone to talk to, by noone's fault but your own.

All 4chan does is free you of bad reputation. You can start contributing at any time and people will judge you by what you contribute, not by a badpost spam you made a month ago. See? It's never too late, Anon-kun! You can change your badposting ways even today!

This is the point you'll never get. Anonymity means you can be honest when you think something sucks. It also means you can focus on the message and not on whoever says it.

It is not a place to act like an asshole for no reason. I know that this is what you think 4 chan is, because people told you 4chons is internet sinkhole where people are always angry and yelling at each other but stop taking jokes at face value.

The reason why all jp clones failed and warosu is shit is because you can't build a decent community around people like you. You can't build a community of people who act like you, who want the same things as you. Nothing good will come out of trying to appeal to people like you.

This is not the same thing as trying to build a huge hugbox, fucking learn the difference. Somebody has to build that sand castle before you stomp on it. When you have a playground full of nothing but assholes who just want to stomp on sand castles they'll just yell at each other until they get bored and go home. See ota.

I don't think I've ever been a member of a forum that didn't have every single thread end up being gigantic quote pyramids between two forum "veterans", meticulously using each others words against each other, debating nonsense.

Anonymous imageboards are a natural outlet for people who don't have the patience or the attention span to talk with people on a name to name basis, or who don't know how to moderate their own behavior to fit in anywhere else.
