It is a pretty clear sign that 4chan is infiltrated by the same sort of groups that have turned all social media into a net of bots, and that it extends past simply /pol/.
When it suddenly extends to infighting between janitors and moderators.

Honestly the website is probably going to die in the years ahead, when Hiro stops footing the bill.
This place is a pretty dead shithole, the only parts active are the most autistic ones like the tournament board. But I guess being so ignored by the world is good, the only problem it has is all the child porn bots that still creep up.

Probably /k/ moderation is just filled with kremlin drones.
>What can I do about it?
4chan's structure doesn't allow users to responde to bad jannitors, if a janny is a retard then only some else superior to him can do anything about it, if the mod and supermods are also retarded, then it becomes an issue. 8chan has a system to counter this by giving users board creation tools and easy ways to ban evade, therefore you can just open your own board if you don't like how another is handled.

Getting banned is meaningless. You just clear 4troons cookies, and reset your modems IP address so you get a new one from your ISP. Then your ban is lifted.
But I don't know why anyone would post at 4troons ever again. It's a fed honeypot. Yes, the FBI is collecting all your posts. Yes, DHS is prioritizing shitposting edgelords over actual criminals. Our gov't is just that paranoid.

Wanted to do this for a long time.

It goes like this: you post a photo of some part of the world, and others will try and guess the country. Nature is preferable, but cities are okay, I guess. If 5 posts get it wrong, someone else can post another photo.

Naturally, I'll go first. Hint: it's somewhere in Europe.

Yeah, Brennan shot themself in the foot and got shot in the other foot........ actually I realized halfway through typing that's a badly chosen figure of speech.
Didn't go with Lynxchan (smart), didn't go with jschan due to a tantrum over a petty licensing triviality (dumb) and went home to write another imageboard with blackjack and hookers. Then some drama and legal complication about their mission to get the server back happened (picrel, late May). And then a month ago they bought another niche imageboard for furries. So I wouldn't hold your breath.

You got the numbers mixed there, it's 720x480 and 720x576 and 640x480, etc. 640/720 pixels width and 480 pixels of height ie. amount of lines (576 for PAL). But for analog broadcasts even those are just estimates, you had a few lines/pixels more or less in the active video area as a safety margin. For example the actual width is 704 pixels, with 8 added on both sides as a safety margin.
Then DVDs adopted ITU Rec.601 and once digital mastering became the norm, they tried to fill out the entire frame size as best as possible (so no more bars on the side).

>Since first widescreen LCDs were only 480 pixels high, the only way to view 4:3 content was to squish horizontally instead of stretch vertically. And that what what led people to believe 480x640 is the actual correct size of the frames

>And why use 720x540 over 640x480? It's less computationally expensive, and higher quality cause it preserves the horizontal resolution.

Oh, and note, this only works right with progressive video. With interlaced video, it should not be done since it will just add a ton of artifacts.

Once you deinterlace (or detelecine which is even better), you are dealing with progressive frames, and you can stretch or upscale with no new artifacts.
