If I were to make an imageboard/community for NEET and shut-ins only, what would I have to do to do it properly?

What boards would you like for it?

What should I AVOID doing?

That sounds like hell.

>> No.8996808

1. Don't. Your board will never be popular or "the next 4chan" and there are already a million alternatives.
2. Email Tokiko and ask for his /neet/ board files. It had about five regular posters, which is more than you can ever hope for.
3. Don't.

they send in stealth agents that pretend to be NEET and one day and steadily reveal that all the things that made them NEET were jokes

SOON.

But really, why would I visit your site instead of any of these:
http://www.1chan.net/overchan/
http://shii.org/2ch/

And these are incomplete lists.

And while this may sound like I'm going against the spirit of anonymous boards, why should I (or anyone else) care about your site? Who are you? Why would I join some site created by a random stranger who figured out how to set up Wakaba? Why would I choose that over established communities almost as old as 4chan itself--iiChan and 4-ch, for example? If you set up "exciting new features" or add thirty niche boards, that isn't going to bring in traffic. Often the opposite, in fact.

But whatever. /soc/ is where you should be asking about this (!WAHa's one, not 4chan's).

If you want a REAL reason for people to go there, add /loli/ and /shota/ boards, or cater to a very specific fetish, like Gurochan does.

Sounds like a shithole, but if it gets rid of them from here, by all means, do so.

For what do they usually do. Substance abuse, anal masturbation, pissing in bottles/shitting on floors, complaining/crying and general shitposting.

You might need a good moderation team for taking care of pants-shitting babies, so good luck!

Same for me.

OP, no doubt you just want a better place to discuss /jp/ stuff without the cancerous mentality that comes with 4chan.

Go to tohno, the IRC leaves a lot to be desired but the board is good.

/nhk/ — Nullchan Hikikomori Kyoukai.

>> No.8997181

Uboachan has a NEET board, though it's a little /a/ in tone.

4-ch has a pretty good Personal Issues board where being a NEET/shut-in/whatever has been discussed many times before. There have also been a few discussions about the hikikomori phenomenon on other boards.

Archduke had a /neet/ board up and it was okay, but then people discovered he was kind of a jerk and stopped posting.

Every other reasonably large text or image board seems to have a personal issues or advice board of some sort, like 420chan's /qq/ or Tohno-chan's /so/. Even here, we have /r9k/, /adv/, and /jp/ itself.

You are doing nothing new and your board will get three posters, tops. But maybe you'll have really high-level discussion, who knows.

Make it a forum with registration. I don't know if it's a good idea, I just like it better when I can make friends with people I can identify.

inb4 truneet dont make friends or some other shit

enforce the taking of easy but have a lax stance on the rules

i dont know

>> No.8999567

If you do it, restrict it to one board only. It keeps the small community together and there isn't much to discuss anyway between a bunch of shut-ins, that could be categorized into topics.

Secondly, don't moderate except for spam. Seriously just do not. Any act of moderation will reduce the posting rate more than is good for a small community. And bad posts are more interesting than no posts at all.

Thirdly, find a diverse community. Nobody will join /jp2/, because /jp/ is faster and there are already spin-offs.

>> No.8999573

Forums are horrible the older people always talk down to you and new people try too hard to be liked by them.

>> No.8999581

That is why you have a small community and have members brought over from new ones.

Why not a textboard with post ID's, OP? That seems like it'd be the best for discussions.

Why not let people use names? Maybe disable tripcodes, but users should be given the option to identify themselves if they want to, and stay anonymous if they don't.

Also discussion boards should be used for discussion, moron. Imageboards are intended to be used for sharing images.
