/baw/ - General Discussion

So poor Moot is finally out, good for him.

>>397601
He just came out of the closet? I thought he did it almost a decade ago on /a/?

>>397610
She's bill waifu, so it's some sort of self inflicted ntr meme

There's been three of four stickies on /v/ about Valve selling mods. A reminder of how PC oriented /V/ is.

>>397616
> A reminder of how PC oriented /V/ is.

That's really all you got from this? A shitty "me vs them" console war argument?

Yeah, besides this is about the issue of mods.

Valve is being gross and taking waaaaay too much of the money, but at the same time modders should be payed.

>>397649
>but at the same time modders should be payed.
I should be payed to post there too. People should be paid for everything. Clearly the ones that want to do free stuff are wrong.

>>397653
All I'm saying is if you are making a product people want to pay for then you should be compensated, treat it like the good kind of dlc, like a couple of cents to 2.99 or so but if it's good enough that everyone buys in and a good revenue crops up.

Now, this comes with some stuff to hammer out, some people are compulsive buyers like those preyed on by MOBAs and need to be protected, quality assurance and responsibilities if mods break the game or become outdated as having been paid for should ensure they always work, etc.

PLUS 4chan complaint: after I close GIFs, they still keep playing. Forever.

>>397659
I petition to remove it.

>>397679
I counter.

>>397680
It's annoying and pointless.
I don't want to refresh a page every time I want to stop playing gifs.

What possibly use could you have to let them play continuously but smaller?

>>397682
What possible use could you have with a static gif?

But seriously, I don't see an issue here.

>>397683
Open - playing.
Closed - not playing.

If that is not simple enough for you...

>>397683
>What possible use could you have with a static gif?
Because I don't want it to keep playing?

>>397718
Filename threads have become overused. I can see why people want them away.

>>397727
I would care if I didn't already know that /co/ janitors are shit and most posters on /co/ care more about getting porn of whatever cartoon the thread is about than talking about the cartoon.

Especially cartoons about talking animals

>>397729
In mods' defense, most posters do not have the strength of will to stop themselves from devolving to posting porn.

>>397731
I've already mentioned this, but back in the days we used to wait until the bump limit and then spam porn without the mods seeing.

Anyone else seeing a constant trend of posters who can't capitalize the first letters in a sentence?

>>397742
i can't say that i am

>>397742
I Have No Idea Of What You Are Talking About

>>397749
Paranoid shut ins who literally have nothing interesting to do with their lives than complain about shit they thing is coming to get them.

>>397749
It goes back to the idea that the average poster on an anonymous board has this thought of "Everyone here is Like Me."

Say an individual has a differing opinion. They're mentally separating them from the group as an outlier. In this case, Redwood. Now, its highly unlikely there's only one person on the entire board who appreciates the lead actor from the brand new Legendary Hollywood Movie Series enough to make their own thread. "Its that outlier, Because its certainly not somebody who is Like Me."
And I don't even want to begin on the subject of seeing the new Star Wars lead being diverse as "negative" and worthy of being "outed" as an SJW. Whatever that means.

>>397749
Wow, there are people who genuinely disapprove of the time when /co/ was love? What fuckheads.

>>397749
>implying it's possible to ruin /tv/

they believe that "3D waifus" are a thing

>>397749
>I was banned. It couldn't possibly be because of anyone else but this guy.
Honestly though, I couldn't care less because I stopped visiting /co/ (not because of the quality, just needed to spend time doing productive shit)

>>397753
I disapprove of the era wherein Redwood was consistently posting the same few pictures of himself, requesting drawings of himself in drawthreads in various superhero outfits with various superhero girls, and followed constantly by the Defense Force who gave him the memetic status he desired until fuckwit mods were somehow bought into the popularity contest method and gave him power to further entrench his self importance.

/co/ was love before that. That's probably the burgeoning age of the shitty state it's still in today.

>>397772
The use of the term "hugbox" suggests someone who doesn't care for /co/ being love.

>/co/ is love
Man, I am so sick of that phrase. It should be on a list of 4chan terms and phrases that newfags took out of context along with "waifu" and "containment board"

>>397775
Is it just me, or is 'projection' the new 'cuck'? (that is, an overused, misused annoying faux accusation)

>>397777
I thought cuck was the new projection? I remember Projection being tossed a bunch in the homestuck gens before they were more or less b&/heavily regulated.

>>397780
My mistake then. I've just seen it become used a lot recently (mainly on non-/co/ boards).

>>397772
The "redwood did it" meme is annoying. Sad that you believe it.

I only put up with recaptcha for the books, I'm just dropping anything that expects me to help Google make its vision recognition system more able to run around spying on people.

>>397790
captcha are becoming retarded, there's no way they are recognizing anything, I can't even succeed any of the ones that aren't arrows.
The one that give you a word to type, then a code to copy paste is bugged too.

It's only after years do you realize why they say "/co/ is love".

Compared to /v/ and /a/, it definitely is.

>>397804
/co/ hasn't been love for far too long.

"your fetish is problematic" idiots need to be removed from /d/, it's fucking stupid how you just can't have certain threads anymore without tumblrites and the obligatory /pol/tards derailing them into 20% image 80% shitpost garbage dumps

>>397824
Going to /d/ to specifically rile people up because of dicks sounds literally like the most /b/ thing to do.

newfag.

>>397825
>newfag

this didn't happen five years ago

also I'm not talking about the usual "is futa gay" easymoders

people offhandedly mentioning how some words or concepts are "offensive" while otherwise being on topic is too subtle for the sort of trolling usually encountered on 4chan

>>397826
>people offhandedly mentioning how some words or concepts are "offensive" while otherwise being on topic is too subtle for the sort of trolling usually encountered on 4chan
It is the exact opposite of subtle. And the fact that it has you so pissed about it you're complaining about it in here is proof enough that there's plenty of payoff in using it as a trolling tactic.

>>397827
by your logic no one ever voices political opinions on 4chan and everyone who "pretends" to do so is just a less identifiable Kimmo Alm

that sounds kinda naive

but whatever, keep telling yourself that everyone who doesn't want any semblance of content removed from 4chan is just a newfag

>>397828
>everyone who doesn't want any semblance of content removed from 4chan is just a newfag
Now who's being naive.

fuckin newfag

>>397828
4chan's always been moderated, dude.

And I know what you're talking about. "Hurr durr sjws complaining about buzzwords imma go be a sjw on /d/" REALLY doesn't seem like trolling to you? Seriously?

oh no I see it now. your problem's an mra one. Like, I'm not even being hyperbolic that is straight up men's rights stuff and its so earnest it reeks of aspie all the way here. Sorry. You're just gonna have to skip the words and wank.

>Old thread closed due to aids

>>397831
>4chan's always been moderated

usually badly

past examples: scriptkiddies wiping /a/ repeatedly whenever they disliked the flavor of the month, /d/'s futa spammer who made the board almost unusable for well over a year, moot banning a videogame from /v/ because scriptkiddies flooded the board for hours in a row

>"Hurr durr sjws complaining about buzzwords imma go be a sjw on /d/" REALLY doesn't seem like trolling to you? Seriously?

maybe I'm just in denial then because the /d/ I remember didn't have that type of persistent shitposter

>>397832
nice strawman

do you think that cartoon porn and the discussion thereof needs to be "politically correct" at all times, even on 4chan?

>>397838
>I want this to be bad so I can be right and brag about it.
That's /v/ all right.

>>397840
>Is this question is even necessary?

yes, considering you tried to bait me into "revealing my true colors" once you convinced yourself that I am an enemy agent who needs to be silenced/removed

>>397844
>once you convinced yourself that I am an enemy agent who needs to be silenced/removed
Jesus christ, anon.

>>397845
not every board is /b/

not wanting every board to be /b/ does not make one an "mra aspie"

>>397848
troll fuck off

>>397849
>if you don't want shitposters to drown out everything YOU are the troll

>>>/habbo/

>>397848
Did you SEE the /d/ thread?
It's not hurr durr mra its literally "Men Get Raped More than Women, who In Fact Fake Their Rape Claims Just To Get Money Out of Poor Men's Pockets Therefore We Need Men's Rights".
That's not hyperbole. That was literally someone advocating for men's rights in a thread.

MRA is not "SJW." It actually means something for one.

>>397851
>all this shit
>on /d/
fuck. I mean, I've never seen politics/social bullshit on a dedicate porn board before. Except for loli.

>>397851
wait what

that's even worse than the "stop fapping to X, it [promotes evil]" or "stop calling it X, that's [evil speech]" posts that I was referring to

>MRA is not "SJW."

considering you apparently equate spearhead bullshit to "advocating for men's rights", yes it is

>It actually means something

but "SJW" does mean something: it means "someone who disagrees with /pol/'s mainstream" or "extremist tumblrite", depending on who uses it

>>397851
Okay I thought Anon was just an idiot who couldn't spot trolls, but if people disagreeing with that is his problem then he's not an idiot, he's a full-on asshole.

I'll chose to think that letting trolls post just because you think they are tolls only lead to non troll thinking they are in good company.
Just look how much good it did to /v/.

>>397859
If they're trolls, then report them and don't engage them. Copycats exist because some dumb kid sees he can just spout off some dumb line and get everybody into a frenzy. Arguing with them doesn't make them realize their mistake when they never really believed what they were saying anyway.

>getting banned 3 days for saying that murderer could be latino instead of niggers by default

nice work mods, nice work. I will never get how I always get banned because of /ck/

>>397785
I don't even know that meme, I actually bailed from /co/ probably right at the cusp of his moderation. Don't remember why, think my net was out or I had just fallen off comics and cartoons cause the tv was out and this was early cable cutter era.

Went over to /tg/ to talk about TTRPGs until it became Quests, but I'm sure its sorry state needs no explaining here.

Wow... not only is 4chan's server timing out on me, but I also have "Sky Broadband Shield" telling me I can't go on any grown-up websites, even though I'm the youngest person in the house.

>raiding /a/

for what purpose

>>397907
There was a raid? Was it /sp/ again?

>>397909
/pol/ from the replies I'm seeing.

>>397909
it was random pics with "find a flaw", not sure what board think this is even funny or anything. Might just be a retard who discovered resetting your phone allowed to avoid bans as long as the IP you get is fresh.

>>397912
I wanted to reply, but chose not to. It's clearly a "for sexual" female cartoon horse, and it is clear OP wanted cartoon horse porn. Mod was wrong, but OP was wrong as well.

posting down on Saturday, lovely.

And Moot isn't there anymore to be blamed.

>>397943
I hope it last all weekend

>>397945
fuck you I need my splatoon thread fix.

>Monstergirls are furry guys. They're just lizard, cow, bird, etc.
>You have been banned from /tg/

Oh no. How will I ever participate in the totally non suffocating CYOA, QUEST, CIV, STORY, RP threads.

>>397949
happened to me with /co/ and movies. Worst part being we have a fucking board for movies already.

>>397955
WORST worst part is that the movie crowd moving in was an integral part of /co/'s metamorphosis into the current shitty state.

Skimming through one of those battlestation threads made me realize that most of /v/ really does still live with their parents.

Can we get someone to take a look at the sticky in /pco/? All of the recent posts are not showing up in the thread.

>>397965
Something got "stuck". Thread page is updated now. Still need to look into why that happens.

Darn it Boco, you are just like me circa 2010, but way dumber.

>splatoon demo : dozens of threads all day
>witcher 3 reviews : dozens of threads all day
>literally one post about another yealy instance of Ubisoft shitty cash cow : STICKY

Holy shit, looks like 4chan is open to paid stickies now.

>>397990
I'd be surprised. I talked with moot years back when they were having more financial trouble than usual, and one of the ideas I brought up was paid stickies. He says he thought about that, but there was no interest when he put out feelers. 4chan was just too toxic to use like that.

I doubt its image has improved since this, so this likely just a mod who gets an Ubirection.

>>397998
sound about right. good luck putting that pic on your work computer.

>>397998
Not safe for work does not mean porn. It means "Would a boss in a *normal* working environment say anything negative if he walked passed my desk and saw this."

I don't see the big deal, or did you miss those Witcher 3 and Splatoon stickies?

https://archive.moe/v/thread/294309237
You got banned for the shit thread you made on /v/

>>398005
Wow. /v/ is shit. I though /b/ sucked, but no.

>>398004
The rules page has NSFW in quotes. It's not a literal NSFW board, but that rule exists to stop the board from being a porn/ecchi dump.

And there's no reason for it to be as 4chan has like 5 different boards for you to post your video game fap material, if that image of generic anime girls posted was even from video games.

https://archive.moe/v/thread/294384621/

The question is: why was it deleted? Because it was a troll thread, or because of the anime derail?

>>398010
>I want to be hardcore but moot won't let me

>>398013
.............

>>398004
Your post got you banned, for the kind of imagery used in that picture, and you don't consider that maybe the picture that's flawed for ignoring that mods do try to remove that kind of stuff but can't be everywhere?
Of course not, it's 4chan that's wrong for not being exactly what you imagine it is.

0.7 kinda troll thread * 0.6 anime derail = 0.42 thread, not worth saving.

>>398026
I still don't get why people who literally can't tolerate anime go on 4chan. It's like going on xvideos and complaining there's too much porn.

>>398030
Probably the same reason why people who like anime keep making threads in /co/, /sp, and other non-anime boards.

>>398032
... aaaaaaaaand no one replied. Is /v/ getting smarter?

>>398033
Are you admitting to being a furry shitposter

>>398034
Everyone wants to troll a little sometimes. And no, I don't make troll threads, only troll posts.

>>398037
Most if not all of those threads are "Where is the general?" shitpost threads. I only seen one actual SU thread about the upcoming book. Maybe you should try storytiming the comics for a good thread

>>398037
less cartoon to give more room to cape comics actors reblogging, makes sense.

>>398057
You mean all this is new to you? Pretty sure it's been going on for almost a decade. Habbo Hotel Raids are old school.

>>398060
I think that >>398057 was saying the person who posted the images as evidence completely misunderstands both 4chan and the Habbo raids, not that anon him/herself was previously unaware of the raids.

>>398057
>New people trying to rewrite 4chan's history.

Color me surprised.

It's both hilarious and sad how people keep thinking that Fox news report was anything close to being accurate. 4chan wasn't a hate machine, it was just a place with lax moderation and lulzy happenings here and there.

>>398068
>4chan wasn't a hate machine
But boy did they adopt the concept.

>>398073
Yeah, I kinda hate it.

4chan was always rougher than most sites around, but it wasn't a forced roughness. Now it just feels everyone is going out of their way to be shitty because it's the way 4chan "should" be.

>>398074
That's what you get when you let genuine national socialists take over.

>>398073
>But boy did they adopt the concept.
at itself maybe.

today I broke my record of having more than 80 threads hidden on /co/. All I did was hidding live action and memes.
sad record.

>>398078
It's sad but Steve Universe has far too many people trying to make it the new MLP. Not even AT had such a dedicated hatedom as SU.

>>398083
https://archive.moe/v/search/image/JsqoXvz5WV30N_XVKFCIOA/

See what I mean?

>>398095
The copy+paste thing usually happens because of NoScript. The normal CAPTCHA uses Javascript to send details back and forth; without that ability, it defaults to the non-Javascript friendly system that you see.

Your NoScript and/or Adblock has likely blocked something that reCAPTCHA uses.

>>398097
I deleted all the 4chan cookies, cache, closed the browser, and turned off the Internet. After waiting a few minutes, I turned the connection back on, and restarted the browser. IT WAS FINE AGAIN.

NoScript did nothing.

Sometimes the cracks start to show and you realize that a bunch of anons with genuine severe mental health issues are posting on 4chan. It's always pretty raw shit that takes you aback for a second.

>>398145
They've already been banned/kicked from everywhere else; 4chan is probably the only place they don't have to fear such a response, which is unfortunate because a lot of the stuff on 4chan probably makes them worse.

>>398145
I'm schizophrenic and the averange "channer" seems crazy to me. They are too concerned with fiction and with fictional characters, they get angry for no reason, blame everyone for their problems and refuse to change.

That's way unhealthier that having the desilution of your body being rotten.

/mu/ is only about trolling. There is nothing legitimate or honest there.

>>398166
Did you just realize this? It's kinda been a known known for a long time.

>>398169
No it isn't.

>>398083

That, sadly, is true. And it only gets worse when a single shitposter tries to get SU-related discussion banned from 4chan AS A WHOLE.

But if it's any consolation, the janitors seems to be leaving individual SU threads alone even if they devolve into psudeo-/sug/ threads (Hell, a thread dedicated to a questionable OC-related aspect of the managed to get archived).

Hibike Euphonium is tearing /u/ apart.

>>398169

It's funny 'cause there are the Primaries that read the LNs and knew everything going in and then the Secondaries went in with MAXIMUM OVER Y/u/RI goggles. I knew better to expect more than yuri undertones from KyoAni.

>It's funny 'cause there are the Primaries that read the LNs and knew everything going in and then the Secondaries went in with MAXIMUM OVER Y/u/RI goggles. I knew better to expect more than yuri undertones from KyoAni.

Well--and I admit to not following Hibike Euphonium very well--is that the anime version has apparently omitted a bunch of scenes indicating a future heterosexual romance. All the while adding more yuri undertones. From a writer's perspective, it makes no sense to exclude those important scenes from the LNs, if you're going down that route in the anime.

This was a good troll thread

I wish there was a porn source request board. I have so many GIFs I would like to know the source of.

>>398229

There is a subreddit called "tip of my penis" that could help. Also, reverse google.

>>398230
Not joining Reddit. Nope.

>>398236
Dunno why you're so against it. No obligation to use the account ever again. Whatever.

>>398229
>>398230
Speaking of /r/, one thing that annoys me is that I don't know how to fufil most requests on it. Further, this seems to be because nearly request is for something from /s/, and consists of one of very few request types with a single image per thread. I don't know who models are, and I'm not about to go making xrays and "bubbles" out of what are probably random pictures of people on the street, so that's a lot of 0-2 post threads I have nothing to contribute to. I'm pretty sure if any board would be better off with generals it'd be /r/, since keeping similar requests to one thread would make room for other kinds of requests.

is anyone else having problems with captcha ? i have tried to post on /co/ four a couple of minutes but it keeps giving my incorrect results regardless if i answer right, and it cycles between the dumb identify images to the classic input the number and it always gives me incorrect result, even when i open the reply box its automatically gives me incorrect answer even if didn't even press anything.

>>398356

>>398356
how is burger NOT a sandwich? the bread is what make the sandwich. oreos aren't sandwich because the filling isn't between bread.

>>398361
Is the KFC Double Down Chicken Sandwich not a sandwich?
What about low-carb burgers?

>>398359
Aww, he deleted it.

>>398361
I think that technically you are right. Didn't someone here already talk about the Earl of Sandwich? It's the bread.

However, I would say that if something is sandwiched between another thing, you could call it a something sandwich (eg. Ice-cream sandwich, cookie sandwich, knuckle sandwich)

Captcha makes people tackle the real questions.

It's like how /a/'s rules against western often get applied to the hentai boards, though recently /d/ has been a lot more lenient about that.

>>398383
>/d/ has been a lot more lenient about that.
has to be, modern 4chan can only use tumblr and pahel to get "fresh" content, with a few pixiv accounts from time to time. the ear of lurking in badly made japanese blogs to find content is dead.

>>398390
I miss those times.
Mosha ;_;

>>398383
There are many fetishes that are popular in the west but unexisten in japan. in my case that'll be diapers/ageplay, the little japanese content that we see never has the diapers as focus and its always a small scene is some scat or watersports doujinshi.
