/a/'s manga discussion far outshines the anime department. I don't know which series in particular you tried to talk about, but I've found that generally, while anime discussions on /a/ are usually total shit due to their popularity and larger audience (resulting in more quantity and less quality), manga discussions are more civil and intelligent (comparatively speaking at least) and that they are overall tolerable.

Ah, but to his defense he created /soc/ as a containment board, to clean up /b/.

You can't clean up /b/. Nor does it need to be cleaned up. /b/ itself is the largest containment board on 4chan. It's a dam that keeps normals away from other boards. It's a very leaky one, but without it, the changes would be much swifter.

I agree, which is why I would prefer having a separate manga board that has only those types of discussions instead of the pleasantly surprising "hey I'm going to attempt a manga thread and hope that there are at least a few people on this board that actually read manga" threads, which is the vibe I get when seeing threads about manga that aren't the usual 2-3 shounen series they discuss.

/b/ will never be deleted. There is absolutely no getting around that fact. But think about it for a second, when people mention 4chan, they automatically think of /b/. As an extension, most people who browse /b/ either don't even know about the existence of other boards, or don't browse them at all. /b/ and the rest of 4chan are like two different entities. "We" are not "4chan" in the eyes of the general masses, any normalfags we get in /jp/ is very likely not /b/'s fault. And if we did get rid of /b/, what would happen to its current browsers? I don't think they would all automatically leave.

They would disperse to all the other boards. Or perhaps just a few select ones they choose as their new base. Such as r9k. Thus my dam analogy.

>>10505155
Yeah, I know what you mean, but what I wanted to say is even if there are less posts in a manga thread, the quality is usually higher so I end up enjoying them more. I fear that a manga board would draw more and negative attention to the medium and cause it to be polluted. On the other hand I can also see it being a pleasant, slower board with interesting discussions.

That depends on whether this janitor started before the mute system or not.

I know he was responsible for several janitors quitting before that when he would just sitting there spamming for hours on end until the janitors gave up in frustration and left.

He usually left after the janitor left, though, so I'm not sure what he was trying to accomplish.
