I've updated the board frontend to the latest work in progress version. This is a total rewrite that purges nearly all old code, which is why it took so long to make. It does not yet have everything I want to add, but it is already five times more powerful than the old site and makes the place so much easier to use. With this update, we are closer to parity with other imageboards out there, both in features, and in site layout, but we are not there yet.


Some highlights are:
- entire front-end rewritten from scratch, with nearly all of the old code base purged from this side (the backend has not been touched to avoid compatibility issues).
- new responsive layout, with a more old school imageboard mode. The layout is based on the browser window size. On desktop PCs, it looks like a traditional imageboard, but on tablet or collapsed windows, it looks like the previous plus4chan layout. I may make a switch later to force either style, should you guys have a preference.

POST YOUR DREAMS!

My last one was something that could make a decent fanfiction. It was a mashup of Prometheus, Avengers, and Pacific Rim. Basically, it is the future, and anti-gravity vehicles are the norm. The dream starts somewhere far away, where an Architect was revived from deep sleep. He vows to destroy mankind, his creation, because we are not perfect. He says all that telepathically, due to his vocal chords being cut. He calls his fellow architects, and they get together a fleet of spaceships to fly to Earth and destroy it. I am one of the few humans who learn of this first (forgot how), and I learn hat while at a picnic with a larger group of people, in a forest. After seeing the ships approach and leveling the forest, I grab the nearest speeder bike (junk, but operational and defies gravity!) and ride to my home. After I get there, I tell everyone the news (they are my friends in the dream, despite being complete strangers now that I look back). So, from the windows of the apartment, we see the Architect ships (different than the ones from Prometheus) slowly destroy the city. The human race then decides to quickly go through with a defense program. To fight monsters, we will create monsters. Very quickly. But instead of giants robots, we use magical bullshit science to make superheroes out of people. Those superheroes would make a defense team strong enough to defeat all the asshole creator aliens. The plan is successful, and my dream ends with the first batch of superheroes testing their new powers before going to fight the Architects. I also remember there being one lizard girl testing her freeze powers and looking happy after seeing they worked.

Anything you seen in your sleep worthy of talking about?

One of the more interesting dreams I had lately was a weird alternate sequel to The Matrix. It involved real world time travel to stop some different villain, and Trinity died (no one else did). The ending was Neo and the gang playing some of Trinity's favourite music (off a very retro cassette tape machine) to honour her memory.

>not particularly interesting
Definitely above average.

A day or 2 ago I had a dream where I was charged with the mission of stealing an artifact from a mansion, during a lavish party. The owner of the mansion was a very grumpy Mark Fucking Hamil. Who was a villain and had some superpowers.

I was messing around and broke one of the fans on the laptop cooling pad/stand I have it sitting on.

Funny how you say this, I just went on a vacation trip and they had tablets on their sits, an old ass version of the OS, I think it's not even Android 4. The machine only needed to play movies, music and clip art so it's more than enough. It did have a web browser but it wasn't connected to internet.

I used to believe it was purely automated, but now I'm not so sure. I've heard of seemingly ordinary users replying to anons with oblique remarks to the effect that perhaps a little vacation is in order, after which the anons being replied to will suddenly stop posting, only to reappear days or weeks later saying their IP was temporarily blocked for abuse, even though they'd broken no rules.

If that isn't janitors abusing their powers by going over the mods' head and handing out pseudo-bans, then it's a very curious coincidence. Assuming it's true, that is.

The april source code leak shows that it is automated, and is based on a calculated threat score. If your score is too high, it throws the dice on whether to block your next post or not, then logs this block into your IP/session. Famously, the check completely buggered Firefox and one way to get out of it was to make a single post with Chrome, which then removed the block from your session and you could post from Firefox again.

4chan still gets half a million posts each day and people bitch about it being broken regularly, so the chances of this happening by coincidence is pretty high.
