/jp/ - Otaku Culture

HELL yeah, a gay board.

We're here
We're queer
Get used to it

But /jp/ isn't dead.. activity wise at least.

This board, or a board for the type of content posted here is needed anyway.

Korean board? Seriously? Who the fuck will post there aside from a few retarded /jp/edos?

/jp/ will be around at least as long as Touhou is popular.

Oh boy, just can't way for the daily /kr/ raids.

>>8564356
Are you kidding?
Normalfags fucking LOVE Korea.
Their aggressive cultural marketing is successful as fuck.

>no slav board
God damn it.

>>8564358
Truly something to look forward to.

>>8564356
Half of /v/
k-pop faggots

I guess that's a lot of people

>>8564358
>Korea invented touhou

I can't wait.

A Korean culture board? So basically a board for discussing idols 24/7?

>>8564364
But what would you talk about? K-Pop? SC2 (or would that fall under the e-sports board)? Help me out here.

corea? no because little girls say no jew boy no kimchi

I think /d/ is going to die... well... it was a nice board while it lasted.
/jp/ is active, we're going to survive.
We must do it for Ken-sama! Fight to the end /jp/ers!

If /jp/ is cut I think many /a/ will be totally over-run with autismic fits.

Can't stop laughing at the european sports stan

Are these new?

I seriously don't give a shit anymore. There are a lot of stable IB's out there these days and many of them aren't being paid by Reddit to produce shitty memes.

/jp/ actually averages a fair amount of posts.

I doubt it'll go.

>>8564343
>gay board
If it also holds the transgender and trap shit, then it'll be like Christmas come early for me.

Because then I won't have to see those things on the boards I frequent.

if /jp/ dies we'll just go to the gay board.

that way "suck my cock dude" won't be considered shit posting anymore.

>>8564411

I hope it fucking does go so I can finally muster up the courage to leave this place after almost a decade. Other than this /jp/ there is no other place left on this site. It's basically Reddit left and right.

The only difference between 4chan and Reddit?

4chan doesn't tolerate child porn/

Joke would have been good a week ago.

I don't want to talk about wanting to be female with normals

;_;

>>8564422
haha

>>8564423
Get out SA devs.

>>8564427
Too bad. It doesn't belong here.

>>8564423
No...
Reddit is shit but thinks its awesome.
4chan is shit and KNOWS its shit.

>>8564429
Yes it does.

There should be a live action Japanese stuff board or something along those lines.
For general Toku (and not just /m/ related stuff), idolfaggotry, doramas and moon TV in general, etc etc
/jp/ userbase is too 2d centric for that stuff.

4chan: All of the other quality Imageboards have failed.Now you have to settle for shit.

>>8564434
And neither do you, bumping threads with such useful and ontopic posts as 'Yes it does.'

>>8564436
/tv/

If moot makes /gay/, /jp/ would lose a good amount of its posters.

4chan: Are You Laughing Yet? No? Then You Probably Aren't 12 Years Old And Amused By Reddit and Random Comics.

>>8564439
Oh and of course, your QUALITY post proves you belong here.

Fucking faggot nerd.

just keep sending moot emails asking for him to delete /jp/.

>>8564444

sick quads

>>8564444
>4 4s
shitttttttttttttttttttt nigga sick quads

4chan: We Create Content For Reddit And Nothing Much Else.

>>8564447
Do you really want to go back to /a/ ?

>>8564446

>>8564436
Might as well add an Asian Drama board

4chan: We Value You As A Member Of The 4chan Community. Just As Long As You Create Some Out Of The Blue Meme That Can Be Exploited On Reddit.

>>8564456
Nice recent filename.

/jp/ is not dead at least not according to moot's definition I imagine he probably means a board like /3/ which seems to have one post a week.

>>8564407
yes looks like he added them to the top and bottom of the page

>>8564470

Impossible. Something that actually benefits his site?

>>8564473
Well there's still the chance that it wasn't moot.

>A few small changes: You can now view the site while banned—bans only prohibit you from posting. This is a trial and we'll see how it goes, it might be reverted.
Seems pretty cool I hope he keeps this.

>>8564477

He should basically add a "submit to Reddit" feature since that's what him and team 4 are basically going for these days it seems.

I just realized that moot is the only person I e-mail.

Not sure how to feel about that.

>>8564483
I think that happened to me once. I still evaded it though because it was just an automatic one for posting a fileserve (or something, don't remember) link.

>>8564483
That's convenient

PLEASE DELETE /jp/ MOOT

THIS BOARD IS SHIT

>>8564436

That could work. It could be called /3dpd/ and everything.

/jp/ ain't gonna go.
I'm sure he means crap like /3dgc/ or whatever that's called and whatever /ic/ and /i/ are. /p/'s probably up there too. Or down there, whatever.
Also that hardcore board sucks. No one wants to see just people fucking in an image board when there's thousands of porn VIDEO sites.

>>8564489
/jp/ could never get shittier than it was during the "sent me" raids.

>>8564483

This is a fucking stupid decision. I will just say that up front and as simply as possible.

The only time I ever emailed him in recent times was last year in regards to http://4chan.org/flash/ being removed from the front page. He basically whined that it was due to a lack of traffic or something.

>>8564504
You can't make your ad bux from porno sites and J-List if you ban people from your site bro.

>>8564504
I don't know I kind of like the idea really it might make evading look a little less desirable to people that don't have a convenient way of changing their IP at least and pretty much every other chan site works this way I think.

>>8564504
It's actually the smartest change he has ever made. It encourages people to simply wait out their ban time rather than evading it and continuing to shitpost even more aggressively.

proudkorean.jpg

>>8564483
It sucks.

>You can't report posts because you are banned.

>>8564489
You win the Autist of the Week award.

>>8564520

Yeah, they can download all of the silly Reddit memes and comics that they want but I think that it will just encourage them even more to evade their ban.

It's like giving a prisoner a cell with a full open window of the outside world. Over the course of their ban they will give in and want to post and will of course evade their ban.

>>8564489

Shit, that made me laugh so hard. Did he ever reply?

>>8564533

The question is: If you break the rules should you even have the right to view the boards? Let alone post on them.

>>8564540
Honestly, people who want to evade bans will still do so.

>>8564540

lol, mods aren't some fair arbiters of justice. There's probably an archive of "lulz" ban messages out there proving my point but I'm in bed so won't bother looking.

moot has never replied to me, even when I was trying to be helpful about Cloudflare.

What a meaniepoo.

>>8564534
He called me an annoying idiot once, but that's about it.

>You can now view the site while banned
That's why I wasn't seeing random "Banned" pages (or the front page) anymore.

I'm rarely banned and serve them out like good little boy, in case anyone was wondering.

But they are still given the privilege of viewing the boards and downloading images? I would say that's not even giving them 50% of the punishment that they deserve. Why would he suddenly crave a change a policy all of a sudden?

>>8564557
Well, it is a trial after all.

>>8564557

I mean, I know he wants 4chan to be as mainstream as Reddit, Twitter and Facebook these days but suddenly dropping the ball when it comes to moderation policies really shows how pussy-whipped he has become.

I was banned once for three days because I said some taboo word. I'm not even sure which one.

It was the most productive three days in years. Allowing people to view threads kind of defeats the purpose of a thread, anyway.

>>8564553
I he would have said that to me I would have personally showed up to him in no other than a "4chan meeting" and ask him to tell me that again but this time with his skinny self. Let's see if he can ban punches.

>>8564560

And of course all of the banned users who will partake in this trial period will approve. Because they can still view the site, download content and see whats up.

I can view threads on SomethingAwful while banned.

>>8564561
Think you mean defeats the purpose of a ban, and I do agree. Hell, some people try to get banned so they can go do something productive (because they clearly have no self-control) but now they'll still be able to view threads.

>>8564563
Actually, I don't approve. However I'm only banned from a specific board.

>>8564567

Well, yeah but you aren't paying 10bux every time you are banned. SA is more focused on actually textual discussion as well and can't really be related to 4chan these days anymore.

Just to point out, being able to view the site when banned is probably the solution to the Cacheban error, since Cloudflare were being fuckwads about it. They probably changed how the ban system works internally.

>korean board

Keep in mind on most MESSAGEBOARDS if your account is banned you can still view the public boards. He's probably trying to make it more normal like that.

Why does Gundam's mecha designs look so childish and toyish compared with Miyazaki's design and mecha in reality?

>>8564572
Are you actually praising Something Awful? Get the fuck out.

>>8564583
>trying to make it more normal

Stop, that's just horrible.

>>8564562
I felt like doing just that when he gave me a 0/10 after e-mailing him the IRC log I faked just to see his response.

I used a different e-mail, though. I have a feeling my gmail one has been blocked by him.

>>8564588
I'm not saying I agree with it. That's just what it appears to be.

>>8564590
Don't bother unless you want to make an impression. I mean what kind of douchebag acts like everyone's friend but e-mails you that you are trash. I mean what the fuck?

>>8564587

Uh no. I haven't posted on SA since early 07.

>>8564594
But I am trash.

>>8564594
>you that you are trash ---> when you ask for moderation justice
There is trash, but you are not trash WHEN YOU CARE ABOUT THE BOARD YOU ARE POSTING IN. Does some people even understand this? >:<

>>8564590
hi richardson trevor, ur a faggot

>>8564489
>>8564343
Sup, I email moot all the time too and he replies just like he did to OP.

>>8564343
>Blacking out your e-mail.

What is this, 2011?

Nobody gives a shit about you enough to do anything with it these days.

The problem is the sites constantly growing popularity due to things like Reddit and other shit is constantly changing his mind when it comes to how the site should be handled. At this point I think he is giving the order to the staff to only ban for serious offenses (illegal content and so forth) and letting shit like trolling and threadshitting slide.

I really don't care anymore since /jp/ is the only reason I visit the site anymore and quite frankly I hope he does delete /jp/ so I can't forget that I was ever apart of this site for so many of my wasted fucking years.

>>8564608
Whatever, you think it makes any difference? Thing is we care about /jp/. We are all /jb/rothers here.

>>8564615
So you believe misinformation? OP blacked out Moot's email address and you don't question what was written was actually moot?

>>8564608
He replies to most e-mails, contrary to popular belief.

I've never NOT received a response from him, but then again I don't e-mail him retarded shit like I imagine most do.

>>8564618
Okay okay! Let's make a /jp/ party.

>>8564611
I still sign up any email I see posted on 4chan to a spam list.

Old habits die hard.

>>8564483
This is the best change to 4chan I've ever seen.

>>8564628
XD

>>8564628
What spam list?

>>8564628
What are you, 12?

>>8564635
For bonus points it should not tell you that you are banned.

I get that half or something of all idols being discussed are Koreans. But that doesn't take care of the idols that aren't Koreans, so /kor/ still wouldn't be able to take and contain all Idol threads.

Is there really a demand for a k-pop/some of the idols board?

Why do we need an esports board? They already condense their threads so well in /v/...

>>8564684
/v/ requested it because they want them to leave

>>8564684
>>8564679
No, the email is fake you morons.

>>8564686
It must be a very vocal minority right?

What is wrong with having video games in the /v/?

How does it even affect other people?

>>8564691
I'm not sure because I rarely browse /v/ but apparently they don't like the general threads they've become more like /soc/ hangouts with tripfags circlejerking and meeting up in real life. This is what I've heard from /v/ anyway.

>bans only prohibit you from posting
So reporting is still ok?

>>8564696
Can we have a /jp/ meetup already?

I'm going to Japan in June for a month...

>>8564696
They were. No esports is actually discussed, at least last I checked. Every thread was just a load of shit, squirted out of a rotting anus, leaving a pungent trail of shit, blood and sputum streaking down the thread.

>>8564611
Oh right, so this isn't the board where all of the tripfags are stalked and there are threads about camwhores daily?

>>8564483
Shit, now I'll never be free.

>gay board

Hope they like being spammed.

Instead of deleting /jp/ how about just grab a mod and tell him to stop the shitposting on /jp/.

A couple of "USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST" when people start the usual "hurr i am so randum XD" posts would help a lot.

>>8564700
I sometimes post from a tablet using an app. I was banned from another board and I didn't even know. When I used my PC to report threads on /jp/ I couldn't because I was banned on one board. It wasn't until I actually went to that board and got the ban notification that I could post on that board again, and could report elsewhere. This was like a week ago though.

>>8564713
Threads generally accepted by /jp/ have been getting deleted for the last few days. I'm not even talking about the random shitpost spam. The weird little things that have defined the boards culture for years. We are better off self-moderating, but since the userbase is larger and new, it will probably still be a clusterfuck.

>>8564713
I love this idea. If the offending post is the created topic, USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST and lock it as an example, since it's already done damage. Might as well let it slowly die as a warning.

>>8564720
You two are too optimistic. You forget the people who have mental orgasms when mods do anything.

>>8564718
Thats because the janitor is one of the shitposters and enjoys deleting on topic posts.

We do have a janitor and he is very biased/lazy. I posted some spoilered futa porn and it was instantly deleted. Other autism/tripfag/ircbuddy shit stays on /jp/ for a while, though.

And why hasn't sparky been banned yet?

Bans only for posting actually seems smart. Sometimes people get banned for bullshit and still want to read the boards. So instead of resetting their router and getting back the ability to read and post, they can read without resetting.

>>8564718
You mean like flanfly?

I pray everyday for a hiragana captcha. It might not be effective, but it's a nice way to add something unique to /jp/.

>>8564765
Why? It literally takes a day to learn and fully memorise the hiragana character set. If you want a difficult captcha, you need kanji.

You know, with any luck, /ko/ will be the new de facto shitposting board.

This might be the best thing possible for /jp/. Besides hiragana captcha, of course.

>>8564739
I was banned for posting a news article recently that contained a banned link. I sort of agree with you.

It seems like a natural solution would be to ban from posting and reading or just posting based on the severity of the offense. A major offense could result in being banned from reading, but something like a word/link filter ban would result in post banning only.

>>8564774
It may take only a day but that's a day the average /v/ poster wouldn't spend. They'd find other ways around it, though.

Either way, it'll never be implemented. I'm sure moot has no desire for an exclusive club board. People could figure it out easily, but its tediousness would restrict most people nonetheless.

>>8564774
Moot's probably too lazy for that but yeah, even a kanji captcha would be easy for /jp/.

I think moot is toying with the idea of /vn/.
>>>/a/61426350

>>8564774
As long as you have an audio captcha (that works) to go along with a kanji captcha I see no problem with this.

I just want a board where I can post about loli mmos and dress up games.

>>8564790
That board would have literally one page.

>>8564795
This is one of the stupidest ideas for a board ever.

>>8564795
>>8564797
Those KSfags sure are self entitled faggots to demand a whole board to themselves when they can post in /a/ and /v/. Hell they can even post in /jp/ if they arent retarded with their "I just finished KS what should I play next?"

Honestly, all of those boards sound fucking terrible, aside from maybe the gay board (although do we seriously need more shitty porndump boards?).

An esports board would just be LoL and SC2 generals, it's basically the same shit as /vp/ which was made to get spam of the board.

A /kr/ board would have zero fucking content.

VNs take hours to play and it would descend into faggots posting how close a translation is to getting finished, or exploding every time a new game gets translated.

What the fuck is there to talk about space? Add that shit onto /sci/ instead.

Honestly, these are some of the worst fucking ideas for boards.

there thread over

I really do think /jp/ should be killed. The culture here is so separated, or at least wants to be, from the rest of 4chan now it seems so pointless for it to be here. Now moot has to consider making a whole /vn/ board even though it belongs here because of that. It's crazy.

>>8564815
It was obvious, you would have to be an idiot to believe something that had the sender's (moots) email address blacked out.

>>8564803
Never bring /v/ to /jp/
After thet get bored with KS , what do you think they will do on /jp/?

>>8564803
They get hate on all 3 of the boards, stop being ignorant.

fake

good night

>>8565169
You keep saying good night but will you actually go to sleep?

>>8565169
Instate an official shitposter tax.

>>8565169
moot never sleeps, he just rests by reading more slowly.

>>8565170
I'll bet 20 autism bux that moot sleeps NEET hours.

>>8565169
>KS can go in the board i'm creating to address the bazillion problems /v/ has

what magic is this?

>>8565169
It's like 5:30 on the east coast
Come to bed.

>>8565169
Which board would that be?
Or are you keeping it a secret?

>>8564733
What's wrong with Sparky? Go fuck yourself

Why couldn't we just be left alone.

Everyone pretend we are serious people discussing serious things so all the faggots leave.

>>8565169
今夜も寝かさないぞっ☆!

>Touhou can go in the board i'm creating to address the bazillion problems /a/ has

And then the one of the worst boards on 4chan was born.

so moot makes a sticky at some fucked hour, asks if dumping his problems here is ok, bunch of non-/jp/ shits suck moot cock and say yes, moot locks thread after an hour, and /jp/ gets shafted again

/jp/ truly is dead

>>8565169
Go to bed, moot.

>>8565147
Play toe-hoes?
