Damnit /lit/, time used to be I could comment on a thread and two days later be able to click on the bookmark and see what was up. Now you're all grown up and shit.

No, not really. There's just a tonne more shit that gets posted here.

Quality has gone waaaayyyy down.

I think there is a dogma of chanology which states that maturation in a board results in a decrease in quality.

sounds like someone wasn't here on /lit/'s creation!

It was great. There was tons of activity and multiple active threads about all kinds of books and authors. We've settled into stagnancy since then.

OP, you could still use green-oval to read 404'd threads.

Ayn Rand troll threads were being posted on day one. Maybe the trolls have branched out, but its still the same shit. /lit/ was also always this pretentious. On the first day you would still get called a fag for posting a Harry Potter thread.

There are still very good discussions daily.

I was not even here for the creation, but the most intelligent posters have gone, it seems. For instance, those philosophy troll threads used to be fierce and enlightening. I don't think they would even get a response these days. I miss e/lit/ism. Now we have borderline il/lit/eracy

I've seen plenty of Potter threads recently. & I'm not even a fan so I probably ignore most of them & there's more than I think posted.

Hey, the picture pulled me from the front page, but I see it has nothing to do with what I thought it does.

so, /lit/fags, how do you feel about terry pratchet?

Yesss the analytic/continental showdown threads were amazing, as well as the left/right threads. Historian's page-long posts of rhetoric and obscure citations were neat too.

I've only been around since this summer, so I never saw the golden years, but the folks who said it'd get worse with school back were right.
