/jp/ - Otaku Culture

[Anonymous No.]

Am I the only one who thinks /jp/ needs a mod?

No offence to our lovely janitor but you can't ban.

[Anonymous No.]

I'll take up the burden

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508057
Mods must be fair a unbiased

[Anonymous No.]

Why would you need to ban them?

They eventually give up if you delete all of their posts.

[Anonymous No.]

It would be exactly the same. The spammers have been banned before, they just evade.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508053

Our janitor should be a mod.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508058
Backtalk me again and you'll end up on the ban list.

[Anonymous No.]

We already have a severely autistic janitor.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508064
This is an example of why nobody on /jp/ should be mods

[Anonymous No.]

I'd love to see Meido going berserk on /a/, maybe i would start lurking there again.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508068

I'm sure meido is pretending to be us at the very moment.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508062
That berserker? I would rather have someone more easygoing and not as zealous. It's okay to think they have to protect the board from the spam, but there are limits. Regular mediocre threads don't break rules, they shouldn't be deleted. Sure, it's better to not have to deal with "which touhou would you fuck", but there are limits to overseeing.

This is not a panopticon, 4chan is about freedom, a freedom that stops where the freedom of others begins.

[Anonymous No.]

Did Meido delete the OC thread?

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508077
If it's gone, it was pushed off the board by a raid.

[Anonymous No.]

You have to have actual rules for board content before it's worth having a mod hanging around to kick out all the /a/ and /v/ shitposters. "Otaku Culture" is pretty subjective.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508077
Bald raid (Someone won the raid roulette in /b/ or something), it pushed a number of pages off the board.

This wouldn't have happened if meido was here instead of lazying all day.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508075

Sup spammer, did you organize that raid against /jp/ a few hours ago?

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508075

/b/ is about freedom, not 4chan.

And that's exactly why it's shit.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508075
The Maid's ruthlesness is what keeps us from being /a/, I'd rather have too much moderation than none.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508086
It's your responsibility to save threads from page fifteen during a raid. You can't rely on meido for everything.

[Anonymous No.]

I just wish moot would hire a shitload of janitors for all boards. Unlike mods janitors don't wield a mighty power (they just delete shit) so it's not like a tragedy would happen if a shitty janitor slipped through the cracks

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508077
It's like we already have a board for drawing, or something!

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508087
Why do I always get called spammer for making properly worded critiques to the janitor? Every single time for fucksake...

Not a spammer, never a spammer. Not even a shitposter that believes that /jp/ is No Fun Allowed when meido is around. Just saying that the janitor sometimes goes too far, gets a bit funny in the head and does some silly things.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508095

And that's exactly why we love our silly meido.

Besides, if you wanna keep talking, you always have the ghost board.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508086

For some unknown reason i went to /b/ and immediately saw an image with text saying "Post ending in triples decides how we raid /jp/" yes, /jp/ only, not any other board.

Obviously that's the work of a spammer, /b/tards don't give a shit about /jp/, some faggot from this board organizes these raids.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508095
The power meido wields is a great and terrible one.

You, too, would be hard-pressed to wield the thread axe with restraint.

Far more tempting to just lay waste to everything.

[Anonymous No.]

The janitor is fine. It's only bad when they aren't here

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508103
I just went there and saw moot posted there. It's a shame he's become everything we hate

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508103
Do you remember when somebody posted the "party in /jp/ and everyone's invited" picture in several dozen boards? I still want to know who thought that one up.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508115

Moot always posts in /b/.

It's the most popular board after all.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508095
Well now, what happened is... ahm... one of our janitors, he had a sort of... well, he went a little funny in the head... you know... just a little... funny. And, ah... he went and did a silly thing... Well, I'll tell you what he did. He deleted all pages... on your board... Ah... Well, let me finish, anonymous... Let me finish, anon...

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508053
When did we get a Mod-tan?(We don't even have a mod)

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508103
Next time you find anything like that, link it here. I know it doesn't feel like a good idea, to bring attention to an invasion thread just as the raid is going to start. But if janitor is around they go there and take care of the original thread.

Linking to the raid sources is a great help, I think. They last seconds.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508122
Probably /b/, since they seem intent on slowly ruining every board. They already did it to /v/ and they are working hard of /a/. I've mostly started going to off-site boards since sharing 4chan with /b/ is like sharing a car ride with a retard

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508062
Hell, no. I couldn't come here anymore if she were.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508134

You weren't here during the raid, weren't you?

There was some faggot linking /b/'s thread in every one of our threads, derailing every conversation.
He was even linking it in the raid threads, and /b/ got it's amusement.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508147
You're right, I wasn't here.

Man, what an idiot. I said specifically if a janitor is around, otherwise it's useless.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508135
Still though off site boards are too slow for my tastes

[Anonymous No.]

I'm still hoping canv.as takes a lot of /b/ and other shitposters away from here. I mean it's a facebook imageboard! What could be more appealing to normal fucks?

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508057
Go for it anon, I'm 100% behind you.

[Anonymous No.]

The solution to fixing most of /jp/s problems.

1, Get about 10 more janitors on /a/ and more mods. Then most of the people that /jp/ hates would go back to /a/.

[Manfred !!UiOrmYiMsJQ No.]

>>6508135
I couldn't agree more, /b/ was the end of 4chan before it began.

They can't keep their retardation to themselves, either.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508155

He posted saying that we should all go and report /b/'s thread.

I mean, seriously? Report a thread in /b/?

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508134

I did, i posted the link in a couple of threads, i think many anons reported the thread and it 404'd like 15 minutes later or maybe it was just pushed beyond page 15, i don't know.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508165
/a/ is lost ground, nothing can be done to fix it. Their current culture is rooted in and no matter how many humans you throw at the problem it won't be solved. Same with /v/, it's beyond salvation now.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508168

Well it's not that /b/ killed 4chan.

Popularity killed /b/ first, and the wound started spreading.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508173

I don't know if the thread 404'd thanks to us or it was just pushed beyond page 15 but as far as i know /b/ has very active janitors.

No, it's just that is fucking fast.

Every thread you make last 30 minutes before it starts autosaging.

Mods can't fix a shitty board culture.

Hell, look at /v/, what passes for mods over there, they've given up and shitpost.

Q&A
>Q: /jp/ would move at the speed of snails!
A: Back in 2008, when /jp/ wasn't as shitty or as spammed as it is now, the board moved really slowly. In fact, I'm sure if it wasn't for all the raids and spam, /jp/ would still be at around 3000000 posts.
>Q:But what if threads hit bump limit!
A:Not a problem since those threads won't get deleted at all.
>Q:Your idea is BORING I want to have FUN on /jp/ fuck yeah seaking!! *posts an assload of shitty threads, is 600 pounds*
A: The boards to have FUN are /b/ /r9k/ /a/ and /v/
>Q:But what if I want to make X thread about X subject that was discussed on /jp/ a billion times and the maid doesn't allow it.
A: Chances is it's probably another "Which Touhou would you fuck" thread or something similar
>Q: No, it was a thread about Y, the same Y we discussed every day without it getting deleted.
A: Complain to the janitors/mods by making a new thread and show them proof that those threads aren't spam by linking to the archive!
>Q:But what if the spam gets inside threads, like if morons start spamming "board related thread" with anime pictures or doubles.
A: Filter them and wait for the maid. They need to post 300 times to make a thread enter bump limit and even that won't make the thread get pruned by other threads until the maid comes back.
>Q:Your idea is no better than having the maid deleting threads left and right.
A: And losing 6-10 pages every 6 hours due to spam? Sure it might be harder for the maid to delete all the shitty posts in all of the board without them being so noticeable but that's when the report system enters in play.
>Q:And what would we lose with this idea?
A:Anime threads, meta threads, a few QUALITY threads, Daily doses, Bangkok and mugen posting off topic shitty threads, raids would lose 90% of their strength, Sion would stop being a baby, no more >greentext stories threads, no more >mfw threads, no more >/jp/ threads, literally no off topic threads.

Aren't mods usually moot's friends? Does it surprise you that moot has shitty friends?

/a/ had the same thing the other day. It's like mods don't understand the minds of posters at all. Anything out of the ordinary (background music, board title changes, public bans) will draw shitposters like catnip, yet they still do it.

Alternatively, canv.as becomes popular enough/fails hard enough that moot shuts down 4chan so that new chans will be born (not the typical "one post every few hours" kind either)

Probably because they want attention.

I'm starting to believe that Moot posted that thread on /a/ about the wikipedia guy.

That's why I like janitors more than mods. They can't get attention, it's in the rules.

That's the worst idea I've heard so far in any metathread.
Turn us not only into a board, but a board that requires human intervention to post.

New touhou game announced! Share the news and discuss the cast! What's that? Meido is taking a long nap again!?

It destroys more than what it achieves. Just think of /jp/ as having the traditional 10 pages instead of the 15. It will make losing a couple pages far more bearable.

I know this is not the best of solutions, but I'd rather have pages lost than slowly turning this board into a forum.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508304

In any case you should increase the number of pages, not decrease them.
That way the good threads would survive the raid while meido wakes up from her nap.

[Anonymous No.]

>The boards to have FUN are /b/ /r9k/ /a/ and /v/
/jp/ used to be fun. This board has just changed so much now. I think that for the people who have been here since the beginning, myself included, what we really need to do is move on. It's not only the spammers, it's the whole general population, and the painfully new-to-the-board janitor. You've all made /jp/ so miserable, so serious and devoid of any sense of playfulness or community. I think I'm finally ready to outgrow you /jp/

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508362
Maybe the meido changed as well. Used to be more easy going but the constant spam and raids made him snap, deleting everything that could be even remotely related to the spammers.

As for the fun we used to have it was more about running with ideas, quietly tolerating what you didn't have interest in and keep long discussions that went for days. Imagedumping for the sake of sharing, creativity and reactions that make /jp/ special.

We tried to keep it that way by being hostile to everyone else, but soon enough we turned to ourselves. The biggest problem /jp/ has is that it forgot to take it easy.

If you leave, best of luck. May we meet again one day.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508386
I think it's more likely that the month straight of CP threads resulted in the addition of another janitor or two. Or maybe just instructions to people to keep a closer eye on /jp/ which resulted in more cleanup in general.

Shut the fuck up. Do you honestly think anyone cares? You sound like you think you're doing a favor. News flash. You would have been better off with just getting your opinion out of the way instead of posting that steaming pile of microwaved horse dick cheese

[Anonymous No.]

>>6508406
That CP wasn't limited to /jp/. It went for a long time in /v/ and other lesser boards during the same time period.

I stick to my burned out meido that somehow keeps going for everyone's sake theory.

[Anonymous No.]

I visited /v/ again after 6 months. Facebook, food, childhood stories, dragon dildos, basically nothing but /b/ shit. At least /jp/ is slower and the off topic threads get saged.
