Sup guys?
I'm in my mid thirties, matured, and have a stable life.
It's me: NEET. By definition no longer NEET age wise, and gee, the first thing I thought about was you guys. To the oldfags in here:

How has life treated you? Achievements, Failures? What's up?

I know this thread isn't for me, but is there any archive where I can find posts from the mid 00s? Most archives I can find end at 2013 or 2011 if I'm lucky, and I'd like to lay my own eyes upon the culture.

There are a couple of random user-made archives floating around but most of them are from the turn of the decade.
The ones I know of are:

Thanks bro. It'll be nice to see a culture I was too young to even know about unfold, even without the images they posted. I hope you and all the other oldfags here have your memories, and cherish them long. In the end, they're all we have, right?

It's interesting though, I've been checking the archives lately, and a lot of people who are normally on tumblr were posting here. Some bigger webcomic artists too.

I think it was the design change that killed the site, then the fact that 4chan added /aco/ (which is an incredibly shit board, but because it is on 4chan, it sucks away traffic from everywhere else).

AKA: Cooking With Hunger!
In an effort to become more involved with this website I'm going to try actually make a cooking thread.
Like the Lets play thread on /cog/ (not as entertaning, I know) this is a thread for showing recipes and videos that we like. Especially the youtube cooking videos. What/who to trust. What recipes make just fire not food. Stuff like that.
And requests for recipes too.
Here are two channels to start off.

If this virus BS provokes martial law in the USA, I will be setting off a lot of homemade fireworks on a 10 minute timer along with a pair of speakers blasting Green Day's "Governator", and watching from afar as the wasps in green storm the area looking to deal some injustice. Anyone else making plans for the slim chance that this happens?
Pic possibly related but I'm still trying to figure out how...

With the turn of the decade comes a turn of ownership: As of today, Black Hand is officially the owner/operator of plus4chan. I have the utmost confidence in them, Black Hand has done more for this site in the two years they've been involved than I did in the prior three from when I took over+time prior to that when I was just a mod.

And I did let the site languish (including an attempted murder), so I don't deserve any outgoing speech. Instead, I want to offer thanks:
- Thanks to the mods who have continued to check in from time to time and help keep things in order
- Thanks to Anonex for creating p4c, and for putting up with my shit when I took ownership
- Thanks to Black Hand for the blood and sweat poured into the site, and saving this place from death

Late to the (funeral)party, but here's my 2 cents anyway.

Thanks for /coc/. Without that, we'd probably never have gotten as far with the Melusine translation project as we did before the translator unfortunately vanished.

Hi all. I was wondering if it's possible to delete a thread from the archive? It has a bunch of old art I'm kinda ashamed to have up somewhere and would much rather it was just all gone haha
No.419684

The archives have no database whatsoever, so deleting anything from it would end up throwing a bunch of errors unless all the html files are manually edited out.

And on general principle I wouldn't want to revise the past.

Technically it COULD be edited out, but the archives are also checked by the wayback machine and google, and updating them will just flag them as a newer page, and then they would get ranked higher / get archived again, which is kinda not what you want. Getting re-crawled means people can compare the old and new content and see that your thread got removed.
Oh and you'd need to tell us what you want edited out in the first place, and then people would know that they should check your old art.

tbh we get so low traffic that you really don't have to worry about it. The archives mostly get linked to in offsite comments made 10 years ago. I don't think anyone will find them unless they specifically search for "{artist name} plus4chan archive".
