Holy fuck, are there any moderators or jannies that take a look at this shithole, ever? The majority of threads are not about books and are not even trying to look like they are about them. It's bait upon bait upon bait, unbelievable how awful this site has become since hiroshima took it over. I've been on this shithole for many years, I won't say the quality has necessarily gone down a lot, but that is not a reason for it not to go up by deleting the absolute garbage filling the catalog.

Not a /lit/ thing but I'll probably never post it anywhere otherwise

I've recently noticed an uptick in the number of gifs of things that should really be webms recently, possibly from cross-site pollination from sites that don't support webm/mp4

Obviously neither the admin nor the jannies care about you. Maybe you should take note and leave.

Interesting observation. There is definitely a ton of newfags around here, it's clear from the mindset of so many of the posters that they've just arrived from reddit and similar places.

if you think some benevolent jannie is going to swoop down from on-high to solve all of /lit/'s problems then you're delusional. every mod and jannie have proven themselves incompetent, poorly read, and completely unable to tell what should be deleted. The problem is with the detritus that occupies /lit/, and that's nothing you or i can change, or anything a mod or jannie could change. A jannie can't create a good board, but they sure as hell can ruin it (see: /sp/). So let /lit/ remain neglected rather than overseen by some 400lb hotpocket munching jannie from /tv/ who can't tell what is on and off topic and deletes quality threads.

That is quite a defeatist projection. Each and every low-effort shit post must be deleted. All the "I just got X. Thoughts", all the impotent memery nobody gives a shit about hence 0 posts in 5 hours, all the wojack pics having fuck all relevance to anything /lit. Delete them all on the spot, ban the offenders for a week or two.
And there you have it. A quality thread once a month not flooded down the drain by literal shit of brainlets.

if you want heavy moderation go to reddit idiot, take a nice long look at what results from that

The jannie is beholden to the mod who is beholden to hiroshimoot who is beholden to the all-mighty dollar. as long as this place is owned by someone who cares only for its financial possibility, as long as the mods are stacked with assorted insular faggots, and as long as jannies are mindless hot pocket addicts who do it for free (yes, really!) nothing will ever change. even if the most enlightened, angelic, heroic jannie (a strange portrait! but bear with me) won the email lottery, they would be put down instantly if they tried to do half of what you suggested. the weberian bureaucracy holds its faithful, greasy, obese gears nice and snugly to ensure its own reproduction, and brooks no revolution from below.

Just report the off topic threads, or low quality threads.
Janitors come and clean that shit up quick.
If you report the threads and the mods ban them enough, they will go to their correct board, >>>/his/

If you see the same shit popping up, report it for spam, report the Christianity and philosophy threads, as they belong in /his/ . It's the reason /his/ was made, years ago the religious and philosophy nuts were shitposting and we couldn't get to discuss any books. Hiro came in here, and discussed with us what we wanted, and /his/ was made.
I think the problem is that pol-chan was taken down, and all those religiouscucks are trying to force a foothold in /lit/, instead of going to /his/.

There should be a question mark. "Thoughts?"
A vapid idiot asking random anonymous people what to think about a book he presumably got but didn't even open. What impotence.
Or maybe a bot imitating a retard? Who knows.

Daily reminder that phoneposters are ADHD retards who whip out their phones and use 4chan like a chatroom whenever they need five seconds of stimulation and companionship, NOT when they actually have something interesting to say.

Setting phone browsers to read-only would reduce the population of the board by 60%+ and increase the quality of posting tenfold. Remember, whenever you see a very short, low-quality, low-effort post, it's likely a phoneposting zoomer maximizing the economy of his keystrokes.

My favorite book is Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton, btw.
