>> No.9529923

Well, I guess I'll share this meta wall of text. Anyway, in my opinion, /jp/ has a pretty insular "board culture", meaning neither do we want outsiders here nor do we want to browse other boards. What that means is that the board needs light-handed moderation, so that people can post about things they like here, instead of shitting on other threads or making ironic bad posts to ward off their boredom. Deletion should be restricted only to the most extreme cases of off-topic material (Porn, Anime, /adv/ style blogging, /soc/ style attention whoring/hook-up, /q/ style meta/whining), spam and illegal content. Besides the core content of the board (Touhou, VNs, Doujin material), borderline stuff like non-doujin soft Japanese games, tea, figures, kigurumi, idols, etc, should all be accepted, although of course within reasonable limits (a couple threads of each are fine, but one full page is too much). NEET threads are a special case: these have a big potential to become bad but as long as they're watched closely they should be okay. If borderline threads remain on topic, they can only add to the board, and not remove from it. 'Shitposting' is very subjective, but, as long as all threads stay on topic, shouldn't be too prevalent, even if said topic isn't directly related to the core themes of the board.

A more insightfully designed application process might fix that. You know, something that involves the applicant actually demonstrating he knows his shit and is able/willing to follow directions. You know, rather than just shit like establishing that he's willing to claim on a web form that he's been participating in X ways on Y sites for Z years or whatever (who cares?)

It would be good if they at least gave you example situations and you had to explain what you would do in each one.

I guess that could be pretty hard to implement though, as it would be different depending on the board you're applying for.

>> No.9532340

>>9532302
The system works!

Honestly, the whole concept of choosing janitors on an anonymous board makes no sense. Most people have dynamic IPs, and I don't think moot keeps a list of the posts everyone has made, so there's no way to check if you're giving the job to some retard who just started browsing, or has been an active member for years. Hell, the people that get selected from these emails are probably the worst janitors, most people who apply are normals who only spend maybe an hour a day on 4chan, rather than the autistic sperglords who spend 16 hours a day online and would be fine with pointlessly deleting shit akin to pissing in the ocean to make it all piss.

None of the half-decent applicants will make it past the first stage, as moot will choose the tripfags (worst possible choice given they have no idea what the site is about), or the morons in IRC (still terrible, given they spend most of their days circlejerking with the mods).

Moot desperately needs more moderation and a banning system that works, not fucking janitors that spend maybe an hour a day deleting shit. We've needed more mods for years, but moot is too scared about introducing new blood to his crew of faggots from /soc/.

>> No.9532359

At first I wanted a tripcode so that the ghost anons I argue with would stop bullying the other innocent Saten friends, but I guess it wouldn't hurt my chances of becoming a janitor, either.

Last time I didn't apply seriously because I figured the new janitor couldn't get worse than AoC. Whoops! I hate having responsibility, but if I don't do it, then some other Gestapo spergmeister will get the job and we will be screwed for another year or two.

But as long as we get someone who takes it relatively easy, I'll be content. When someone in the /b/ thread asked why he hasn't deleted /jp/ yet, he said

>people seem to like it. just because i don't understand them doesn't mean they deserve to have the board deleted

We need someone with that same attitude to be our janitor. Not someone who deletes light novel threads because he doesn't like them.

Obviously that's not possible because of how the Internet and the Web work, but one option to ban particular machines (or at least individual browsers) would be Evercookies:
http://samy.pl/evercookie/
Even to a seasoned expert, these can be tricky to delete. For example, I don't think any browsers give you a friendly dialog box somewhere to delete your HTML5 storage in the same way you can delete cache or cookies.

Hell, they could just use a regular cookie. Until some /b/tard makes an "infographic" explaining what cookies are and how to delete them, I guarantee it would trip up 50% of the people who get banned.

I bet it would be more like 80%. These are the people who a couple of years ago would copy and paste code to notepad, save as a javascript file and run it, because they saw it being spammed all over the site. And they've been getting stupider ever day.

One way to ban people is to make an account system. The account is only used to access the site, nothing else. However, when an account is made, it can't be used to make posts for 6 months or more.
This will
1) force new people to lurk before posting (as everyone should),
2) make bans more effective.

Don't ask me how the transition from the current system to the account one will work.
And I guess people will just make a shitton of accounts through proxies.

Forced anon on /b/ is utterly useless. The only people who cried about tripfags were the 2006-2007 'ANONYMOUS' offcuts who weren't a part of 4chan from the beginning.

And what does it do? Make every single poster identifiable by default. All that does is stop samefagging ever so slightly, which nobody on /b/ even cares about anyway.

It created the other result; people clinging to their ID and using it much like they would a trip, it did the complete opposite.

Really we need an anti-samefag ID on boards like /jp/ instead of ruleless shitty ones like /b/.
