/baw/ - General Discussion

Thank you

What the above anon said, only reworded in some manner to not sound redundant.

どうもありがとうございました

nice.
Still under that weird IP range ban on 4chan though.

Every now and then I remember /rs/ and a single tear rolls down my cheek.

Are Dumbing of Age threads on regular /co/ just straight up banned now? I haven't seen any for days, and they used to be pretty regular. I know some people were getting banned for posting screencaps/greentexting quotes from DoA's comment section, which seemed rather excessive, so I guess an outright ban isn't too farfetched.

>Banned

Fucking hell these new mods.

Thank you 4chan, you saved me.

>>405999
what the fuck?

I got banned from 7chan/fur/ for "Green text" but it was an hour long joke ban (three banned comments in a row with snarky red text)

>>406006
I do that here all the time, due to the sometimes hidden name field. Luckily you can delete straight away.

>>406007

Got hit with the usual three day ban. Can't make any saucy stories on /co/ anymore. WTF. Those were some of the best parts of /co/ creativity.

>someone made a hate thread for a thing
>I replied, talking about the plot and the characters
>got called a faggot for "liking thing enough to remember characters' names"
Not complaining, just...... it literally never happened to me or anyone in the 8 years I remember. Unless I missed something.

>you liked it so much you even remembered everyone's names?
>what a faggot!
WEIRD, MAN. WEIRD.

>>406068
>hate thread
/co/? which show/comic?

>>406069
It does not matter. It wasn't an interesting thread, and "this is shit prove me wrong" is nothing new.

Just the reply that surprised me.

Stealth pony threads seem to be /co/'s new tradition:
http://desustorage.org/co/thread/81911830/

I wonder how many 4chan boards we (plus4chan/baw/) collectively browse.

>>406095
I don't go to the Motherchan much, but /fit/ and /vg/ here. Used to do /ck/ too but /ck/ is awful now.

>>406100
I mainly browse /trash/, /co/, /fit/, /aco/, /r9k/, /gif/, /ic/, /adv/, /biz/ and /int/

>just literally saying GG gets you banned from /co/
for
FREE
Jesus christ they are affraid of a word even when it's literally the context of the thread and person you are talking about this is fucking insane.

>>406105
What the fuck are you doing talking about GamerGate on a comics and cartoons board

>>406108
I answered someone who started talking about gamergate Jesus christ. I was telling him to fuck off.

>>406109
Probably shouldn't have been talking about gamergate on a comics and cartoons board.
Ignoring things you don't like instead of responding to them means less of the thread is taken up by dumb off-topic garbage.

Lesson learned: don't respond to trolls.

>>406111
>>406112
you are describing a taboo. It's pretty sad to see new generations back up such toxic mentality.

>>406126
e_e

Why do you think gamergate took off in the first place?

>>406132
keep it in politics thread

>>406134
It's a 4chan whaaaambulance topic, the biggest topic since chanology and the 7chan exodus.

>>406139
And it's contained nicely in one thread on /baw/ so that people who don't want to see it don't have to.

Keep /pol/ in +/pol/.

I'm glad the recent Eisner nominations has made /co/ butthurt.

>>406140
Now see how he's >>406156 trying to start a political discussion?

>bring up gamergate
>someone responds
>take it to olitics thread
How bout the guy who brought it up take it to politics thread.

>>406164
I personally have no idea what he's talking about, but if it starts a political shitfight, then it'll have to go to the containment thread. GG gets moved pre-emptively because it is a guaranteed thread destroyed.

>>406168
>I personally have no idea what he's talking about, but if it starts a political shitfight, then it'll have to go to the containment thread.
There's no such thing as a containment thread. Monstrous human being like Slowpoke or his gg buddies post the same shit across all threads and all boards, they're just slightly more veiled.

>>406181
inb4 post deleted for slowpoke-bashing.

>>406182
If post is deleted, FREE SPEECH!

If post allowed to live, we theoretically become /v/ in 5 years.

>implying this place will live for 5 years

>>406181
It's funny because, if anything, I desperately try to keep all GG trash in the politics bin where it belongs.
>>406182
Rule #1, fella.

>>406184
>Rule #1, fella.
And yet you get off scot free. Funny how that works.

jesus christ, stop bitching. both of you.

>>406187
This.

>>406188
If you're gonna post anyway, would you mind cleaning up the thread? Off-topic harassment of me in any thread I post in gets old quick, it would be nice if it stopped happening.

>>406187
implying its just one other person who dislike's slowpokes smug attitude towards any topic

>>406191
maybe, but no-one else feels obsessed enough to bring it up every time he posts. it shits up the board.

I think I cracked /v/'s trolling algorithm.

>>406196
You said that last time.

>>406199
No I didn't. Something similar maybe, but not that.

The algorithm starts with "[thing] is absolutely terrible and everyone who likes it is stupid".

No matter how you will try to defend [thing] or yourself for liking it, you will not win.

>>406202
Sounds a lot like /g/, which makes sense given that they're both mostly about gadgets and software.

>>406202
That's a universal 4chan argument. I'm surprised this is new to you. It's all over /co/.

relevant:
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/InsaneTrollLogic

>>406206
Oh, the concept is not new, I figured that out pretty quickly.

It's just that I now know how to troll properly (if I wanted to that is).

>>406208
Using a simple formula is not how to troll properly, and I say this as an Australian. If you troll casually or occasionally, it will do fine for you; guaranteed to get a few solid replies and very effective near the top of a thread. But if you want real (You)s and deep reactions, you will have to be a bit more agile.

Try a good old "[thing's main feature] is the absolute worst excuse for a [feature's role]. Only an autistic degenerate could possibly see anything [common description of feature] about it." Naturally, try and adjust to the subject if more information is known, to make it hit deeper.

eg. Mister Twister's monthly ""revelations"" are the absolute worst excuse for a plus4chan post. Only he could possibly see anything enlightening about them.

Naturally, it works better among fandoms. Bonus points if its a waifu.

>>406209
>Mister Twister's monthly ""revelations"" are the absolute worst excuse for a plus4chan post. Only he could possibly see anything enlightening about them.
This but actually.

>>406209
But don't forget to be anonymous when you do. No one will know who you really are!

Except a mod......... in which case...... well, fuck.

>15 minutes
>mod
you know better

>>406221
Well, now 5 minutes became 3 days.

Apparently, you cannot post comic panels depicting naked ladies, even under a spoiler.

BECAUSE BOOB IS EVIL!

>>406228
Well yeah, you can't. There's no rule that allows posting lewds if they're spoilered.

>>406228
sitewide?

>>406229
This.

I've brought up bump limit porn dumps and people are confused. Is it a /co/-wide thing, or limited to cat threads?

I haven't been to /co/ for a while but if a thread hit the bump limit, we would dump porn so no mods could see it on the front page.

>>405887

>OP makes a thread saying Marvel movies are just for normies reeeeee
>reply saying they're retarded
>I'm the one who gets temp-banned

So is there just an anti-Marvel mod on /co/ or what? It makes zero sense how you'd leave MARVEL NORMIES GET OUT REEE but take issue with calling out the post as idiotic.

>>406231
But what if it's, like I said, a panel from an actual comic that you can buy in Barnes&Noble's?

Is it pronounced "Deh-sue Storage" or "Dess Storage"?

Read it before it's gone:

>>406268
lol nice troll thread. Is it yours?

>>406271
I never started an UT thread on /v/, and never will.

Also, want to point out that nobody in that thread got OP's reference.

Are you kidding me my ISP is range banned again FUCK YOU

If I were the King of Mods, I would permaban everyone who ever posted smug anime girls.

>>406295
You know that would make them post them more.

>>406297
Then I will go one step further. I will seek, and find, the power to Know. To Know where those fuckers live.

I would then permaban them IRL if you know what I mean *wink wink*

Anyone else see that new Quest board?
I don't like it. Having too many boards is always a bad idea.

>>406309
arent there like 50 already?

who the heck even asked for Quest? /qa/ is flooded by people who want cape or movies to get their board (I for movies), never saw any real interest in Quest.

>>406319
Not a lot of people were asking for a /lgbt/ board either. I'm still more surprised about that one than any other board.

Sometimes they just seem to throw shit at the wall and see if it sticks.

I like the idea of /qst/ though, it might end up being fun.

>/qst/
looks fun

unfortunately the painter doesnt show up for 4chanX just yet

4chan is populated by mostly Beavises and Buttheads. All that tough talk about forcing women into having sex, while never actually having any.

>that RWBY/RT general got banned from /co/, despite, apparently, new content coming from RvB and RWBY
>threads for new show on Nick, The Loud House, are already getting heavily moderated, despite the show not having even been aired yet, but airing in a day
>both are now forced to go to /trash/

>>406350
I've started seeing Loud House threads there, what is it?

>>406355
a decent familly show with girls but since it's not Disney or CN some false flagger post porn so people can say it's "the new mlp" (don't expect subtlety from /co/mblr, and someone bf is clearly in the mod teams to clean it up for xe.

>>406356
You're really not coming to the right place with that rhetoric, anon.

>>406371
Yeah, I know what you mean.
I love Harvey Beaks, for example, but it never seems to get as much attention as stuff from other networks.

>>406371
>and with it having 10 different girls of varying ages, it was pretty much guaranteed to have some people talking about it.
'nuff said.

It's probably a good show but 4chan is 4chan. You know how it is.

waifufags doesn't suddenly make a subject taboo though. If you really only can complain about them then you probably don't care about the subject yourself.

>>406424
Waifufags don't make it taboo, but they're as bad as shippers when it comes to taking over threads. It does tend to steer away actual discussion about the show.

>>406453
Yeah, but when 90% of the posts in a thread are about shipping/waifu shit then there's not much in the thread that interests me. Sorting through the trash just isn't worth it. Which applies to 4chan in general really, but it's even worse than usual in threads about certain shows/games/whatever.

>>406453
>>he wants to discuss the show
uh yeah? what's so funny there?

>>406460
Fair enough. It can be annoying to see a nice thread go down the drain.

a fucking week of ISP range ban when I'm not personally banned I fucking hate that shit I don't even know whose fault is it, 4chan or my ISP sending me to a shitty proxy for some reasons

>claim that you did something really weird and/or gross
>watch people reply, get those "save as" ready

I still don't understand why some people are ashamed to admit they simply want reaction faces.

>>406486
>>claim that you did something really weird and/or gross
>>watch people reply, get those "save as" ready
this is a thing?

>>406492
I seen a lot of threads lately on both /co/ and /v/, where OP makes an outlandish claim, and a stream of reaction faces follows.

>>406494
>where OP makes an outlandish claim, and a stream of reaction faces follows
Yes, but I doubt it's often to harvest reaction images. It's probably for trolling or entertainment.

>>406494
probably /v/ refuggee. Shit is so common on /v/ nobody ever complain about calling them "sonyggers".

And it's borked again.

>it's a "everybody claim to hate activision but /v/ currently shills 50 overwatch, wow and other activision products" day
Is it me or mods are super lazy recently?

>>406519
Well I mean. Do you want them to shut down threads for no other reason than congruency?

>You have been banned from all boards for the following reason:

>Replying to off-topic garbage.
the fuck? Spineless mods didn't even list the post he didn't like.

>>406539
Holy shit 7chan still exists?

>>406541
usually it links you the post you were banned for

>>406544
I might now be shadowed by 8chn, but I think 7chan was always the second most popular.

>>406549
Yes, but to be fair it's on par with the bans you get. Plus it was only an hour long.

>>406550
Banning for greentext is like banning for replying to OP. There is subjective rule breaking, and there is retarded.

>>406547
>usually it links you the post you were banned for
which is my problem. I got banned, but I didn't break a rule, and it's not about any of my posts. So the only official reason is that he was triggered like a bitch. Which doesn't even make sense considering I have been careful about my posting these days, since I was banned not that long ago.

>>406554
sympathy rapidly draining

What is this chan? It's look like some 2006-tier shit.

>>406615
That would make sense.

>>406615
>someone new
what is this magic

Sometimes I feel bad for /v/.

Seeing all that moe anime girl spam day upon day cannot be good for your psyche.

>/v/ makes filename thread so much better guys
>/v/ makes a filename thread
>mods delete it within minutes

>>406629
What is up with that, anyway?
Why do people constantly go into /co/ filename threads just to complain that /v/ does it better instead of just going to /v/?

>>406631
It's a proud tradition.

Like starting Endtown threads with the small mobile version of the page.

Poppy threads have the most intelligent trolls.

Enjoy a good /v/ thread:
http://boards.4chan.org/v/thread/337519284

Bate thread on /co/ turns into a MST3K discussion. Never mention MST3k unless you are prepared to discuss MST3K.

>>406918
Unrelated, what is that image based off? I've seen a different reference to it before.

>>406920
Jojo's bizarre Adventure part 5.

That DC shitposter at /co/ is really dedicated to wasting his time.

I'm pretty sure the image is based on the much more well-known scene of Cartman licking Scott Tenorman's tears rather than some obscure manga-only scene in Jojo's that hardly anyone outside of /a/ knows.

>>406962
>JoJo
>obscure
Hahah! Not anymore, anon!

>>406962
>>406971
I don't even animu/mango and I've heard about JoJo all the time. It's not obscure.

But yeah, could be Scott Tenorman I guess. Same thing, but probably not the source.

Jojo is obscure, just like homestuck, 90% of the fan never read it.

>>406974
Yeah it sucks, wonder how long it'll take to get working again?

Speaking of posting, does anyone know how to access old threads that have fallen off on +4? I remember being able to do this with old versions of the site

>>406979
I have no answer for you.

However, I want to know why you want that. You have all the time in the world to save content posted here.

>>406979
does Archive.org have archives?

>photoshop edit
>4chan says "possible malicious code in image"
...k

>>406979
There is no place that archives plus4chan threads and posts. The last two versions of plus4chan and it's posts and threads were locked and archived and you could access them with the old plus4chan links but they no longer work after plus4chan went down in February and whoever is running plus4chan won't fix anything and won't bring the archives back.

>>406986
>whoever is running plus4chan won't fix anything
Don't confuse laziness as maliciousness.

>>407031

>>407100

>>407128
>he doesn't have adblock


>>407131
What imageboard is that from?

>>407132
There is this thing called whitelisting. And the ads on 4chan are unobtrusive and I don't see a need to block them.

>>407132
>What imageboard is that from?
7chan /fur/

>he doesn't have adblock
I do, but I disable it on 4chan (although I may need to add it for those ones)
I also disabled on YouTube, but I think I blacklisted the server in Hosts.txt and cbf undoing it, even when trying to watch ads to support an good artist.

>>407136
edit: changed hosts file to allow google ads, simply to give youtubers revenue. it would be hypocritical not to.

>>407136
7chan produced one of the best posts of all time.

>>407137
Just disable AdBlock every time you want to support a particular creator. Re-enable when you're done watching.

>>407139
>Just disable AdBlock every time you want to support a particular creator. Re-enable when you're done watching.
Pretty much what I have going, but before I had AdBlock I used the system hosts file, essentially hard-blocking my access to all listed links. I added a massive list (someonewhocares.org/hosts/) that has a ton of shock sites, sites that are known to spy, ads, etc. (mostly malicious, intrusive or ad sites) that happened to include Google ad services. So I've disabled those lines so that I can use adblock to temporarily allow Google ads.

The Captcha is seriously obsessed with CHEMIN. Whatever CHEMIN is.

Well, someone on /v/ called the place an "Inuit Wall-Painting board".

Today will be a good day.

>>407161
Yes, I was thinking that.

>>407162
>not expecting that of a Venezuelan taspestry-trading forum

I think the sticky in /v/ broke 4chan

>>407194
>7500+
pretty big

Also, you made me go to /v/ for first time in years. I didn't realise how much of a /b/-grade shithole it really was. I thought /b/ 2.0 was an exaggeration.

A third of the top ten posts weren't /v/ related. However, there was some pretty funny shit among the rubble.

I am finally convinced that /v/ hates everything popular.

>>407197
Yes, we get it, you are an eternal newfag. This joke is getting really old.

>>407198
Yet, only newfags say call others newfags. The paradox.

>>407199
Literally no.

4chan is down again

up and down, up and down. It's a DDOS, right?

>>407199
Let me rephrase what I said so you may better understand.

Your repeated posting of your lack of fore-knowledge and bewilderment of the culture of the website 4chan, specifically the videogame board /v/ as of late, shows that you are are not versed in the ways of the posters there. With such evidence I am led to believe that you have not observed /v/ long enough to have witnessed the common mannerisms there.

>>407229
I go to /v/ less than once a year and I have a better knowledge of it than Mister Twister.

>>407229
There is a difference between seeing things how they are at the moment, and realizing it is not just a passing phase.

>>407237
And that would be known by observing for an extended period of time. Translation; not being a newfag.

>>407298
/v/ is honestly complaining that the new Quake is gonna be multiplayer-focused. It's just a bunch of braindead monkey children spewing memes and hatred.

>>407308
But didn't the original (sequels) have a single player campaign?

>>407308
As much a /v/ is, well, /v/, I still prefer the prevailing pessimism that leads to an environment where you have to fight for ever mentioning anything is a good game. Or questioning if the hype is worth it. Well, most of the time once the initial release date is farther in the past or the game becomes popular... But it's /v/, so yeah.

New Drawfag thread on /pco/ needs a sticky.

So this happened
http://desustorage.org/co/thread/83870550/

>>407456
could you at least try to explain?

>>407460
I thought reading the thread would explain itself.

Desustorage is dead

>>407462
Maybe they will get it back up. 404 ≠ official announcement.

I heard that they're already moving everything over to another site.

Why are people so fascinated with the word cuck?? Is it because it sounds like "cock+fuck"?

Over 9,000 got old, but it's still somewhat funny. That word, is just annoying at this point.

>>407472
it's short for cuckold, and for MRAs it's like the worst possible thing (in their own minds) they can think of to say about someone

that's it really

>>407477
I don't think MurrA's have anything to do with it.

I think it's the new form of "virgin". It's not just "you don't get laid", but with the "another dude it banging your gf, snd you don't get laid" on top.

And since that is a verbal attack on someone's ability to get laid, it works wonders on actual virgins (of which online there are plenty).

>>407478
>I don't think MurrA's have anything to do with it.
You'd be wrong.

>>407479
I think MurrA is a buzzword by this point.

>>407480

1) MissedTwist, you are the epitome of "lurk moar"
2) I don't keep up with MRA/Feminist bullshit but I hear it daily, so I can't say whether it really matters or not. "cuck" is the new "beta", but with the tone of saying "faggot". This isn't new any more; people were calling moot a cuck regularly while he still worked there.
3) Who the fuck says "MurrA"?

>>407493
1) Lurk less.
2) Thank you for spoonfeeding me, now I understand the world a little better.
3) I did, twice. And now you did it too.

>>407494
sorry if I came off like an ass, i was dealing with shit elsewhere

>>407478
Huh, I never thought about it that way. It really is the new "calling someone a virgin" thing. I just think "Cuck" just sounds so stupid, though I suppose that's why it caught on.

>>407495
You are not an ass, you are an okay anon.

>>407526
It's just you. They've always been there.

>>407526
Speaking of it /pco/ seems alot more like that than I remember it being, its basically all little girls all the time over on that part of the site.

>>407531
