/baw/ - General Discussion

Gee Billy, two pinned threads?

>>416121
I tried unpinning it three times before it responded. The 600 post threads are glitchy. I'll make sure to replace these more regularly.

My IP range is banned from making threads but not from posting. It's occasionally annoying.

>>416139
What an interesting observation.......... I cannot make new threads on regular 4chan while using Waterfox(Firefox), while Safari works just fine. Is this some sort of digital curse?

>>416152
Does it say an IP range block, or some other error?

I can't make 8ch threads on my PC at all due to "HTTPS referrer" errors, but my laptop works fine. Same with some other chans.

>>416153
It says nothing at all: either loads forever and gives me a "bad redirect" error, or just redirects to the board's homepage. And Safari on the same laptop has none of those issues. Had this problem for half a year now. Can make regular replies on either browser.

Someone made a thread I don't like D:

so I will ignore it like a functional human being. Is it really that hard for people to ignore things? I really don't like that thread though

My weird troubles with Waterfox(Firefox) not allowing me to make new threads on 4chan Prime........ are over. I guess one of the recent updates did it.

All the games are during my exam period. I hope we qualify for the 2018 Winter Cup so I can watch it.

Did I posted this in the last one?

Oh well, reposting(?):

Wow, to fuck up so much.....

Anyway, a "what's for breakfast" thread has managed to die a natural death:

http://boards.4chan.org/co/thread/96478096

Check.

I can't access /co/. Is anyone else having this problem?

>>416305
Fuck yeah.

>>416306
I tried just now without issue.

>>416310
I've never been to one (only got interested in the whole thing late this year) but I have a feeling they will be in /qa/ now.

>>416322
How many lied?

>>416323
76%

Managed to post forbidden material, and nothing bad happened

oh hey, a sequel thread: https://boards.4chan.org/co/thread/96776633

>>416362
Cannot see any image. Desu sucks now, this is better:
https://boards.fireden.net/co/thread/96767984/

>>416368
Yeah it seems desu has not been saving lots of images and I was a bit disappointed. I think they are currently doing server work and merging with rebeccablacktech temporarily

4chan is down

>>416396
... aaaand it's up.

https://boards.fireden.net/co/thread/96983641/

READ IT

>>416403
oh whoops, maybe I shouldn't have said that.

https://boards.fireden.net/co/thread/97006631/

Click for (maybe) feels.

It's almost like 4chan no longer hates tumblr.

>>416631
Reddit is a more popular target right now.

https://boards.4chan.org/co/thread/97502889

Nice Simpsons edits/comics

>>416631
4chan BECAME tumblr. /co/ did, anyway.

>>416669
hahaha yeah, saw that. They have an inline script that removes all src attributes from everything, if the miner fails to load.

>>416669
Apparently not.

>>416674
I ain't opening that!

https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/98575598/#98575598

/co/ has a fun thread, and of course it gets deleted.

>>416958
It got deleted because of past issues with Legion Of Doom thread makers turning it into a 24/7 general

>>416960
Every fucking thread on /co/ is a 24/7 general...

>>416961
Don't exaggerate just so you could hate something more.

A janitor or mod is very mad at the Gumball fandom now, deleting threads and even going across to /trash/ to ban people over in that thread.
It's not even saturday yet.

>>416982
How sad.
It saddens me that the gumball fandom in 4chan will rather move to reddit or let themselves die than coming here or any other chan.
It' s so strange, 4chan is bigger than ever but all other chans seem to be withering away.

>>416983
I mean, I'm happy to suggest coming across here. Especially if deletions persist. That was one of the main uses of +4, as a refuge for prohibited generals.

>>416983
Maybe they are not coming here because they don't know this place exists? Have anyone told them that they can come here?

>It' s so strange, 4chan is bigger than ever but all other chans seem to be withering away.
It used to be that other chans complimented 4chan with boards that it didn't have. Today, 4chan covers nearly every topic, so there's no need for other chans. And 8chan made it worse by allowing everyone to make their own board, so they have a shitload of boards with hardly any posters on each.

It also doesn't help that 4chan considers every mention of another community as spam. Name drop any site and it gets flagged. Mention an alias for a site (like, say, fullchan), it gets flagged. At that point, it is more important to keep people inside.

>>416985
>Maybe they are not coming here because they don't know this place exists? Have anyone told them that they can come here?
I just posted and immediately got the respose "Plus4 is dead as fuck". Apart from loli/shota, they're right.
Mostly, I think people don't know, and the rest of the time they know and remember how dead we are.

>>416985
Yes, 4chan has a lot of boards but that doesn't mean that the site is good, and these threads getting deleted is a proof of that. what other sites do offer is a different feeling, community and moderation.
Maybe because I've been here for so long shuffling different chans seems so normal to me.
>>416986
It's dead because they're not coming here, if their threads moved over here plus4 surely will get a boost in users.

>>416987
>It's dead because they're not coming here
That's what I said, but then they said the functionality of the site is suspect (I can't deny that) which, right now, is still an issue.

>>416988
I can agree with that, it'll be better if we moved to some other chan software that isn't so different

>>416990
It's getting difficult to bring people here, since almost everything except /co/ and /coc/ have a better alternative.

>>417397
Dynamic IPs are dope. Turn cookies off on 4chan, and you are damn near unbannable on 4chan.

>>417402
Sticky IP here (technically dynamic but rarely changes). I have one backup IP but it's a hassle to use.
I admit to using the old "dynamic IP" excuse to evade a long ban.

Did archive-anon ever finish crawling plus4chan?

I have a december full backup, in case we'll need it.

>>417449
Out of curiosity:
- do you mean current state at December, or everything until December?
- full images included?
- is there any backup of the previous plus4chan sites?

>>417450
The current board system doesn't actually purge old threads due to a bug, so everything that was posted on this board. Including some threads which, for some reason, are not in the db but their static htmls still exist. Images included. In fact I think it has a lot of deleted images there too, based on the file count.

Moose said that he may have an archive of the old site. I don't know anything further than that.

>>417450
>>417451
Most of the old site is up on the Wayback Machine, if anyone cares.

>>417452
Yeah, around 2013 era has good backup. I was just curious if there was much chance of filling the bits that are missing.

Latest stupidity from /co/: drawthreads don't allow anchor posts (where artists can link deliveries, so it is possible to keep track of them easier). No explanation give, just janitors deleting every related discussion.

>>418899
Well, we all know what those who know of Slylock want to fuck animals, and that is degenerate.

>>418553
>not just doing it caturday style and reading the deleted posts from desuarchive fuck the janitors they aint shit
shiggy

>>418899
oh I actually got the answer right, neat!

looks like 4chan posting is down again... randomly.

Sometimes I want to put such OPs out of their misery

Another thread deleted for being too fun:

A wholesome pony end thread (feat. Barneyfag)
http://boards.4channel.org/co/thread/110677556

Damn I got banned from all of 4chan for making a joke about the name of Lovecraft's cats on /tg/, of which as you might already know one having went by the charming name of Nigger-man.

>>419052
Moderation was always crazy on 4chan but nowadays it's just a bunch of assholes on a power trip.

I've been banned so many times now that I just permanently block all cookies from the site (4chan puts a user id in your cookies to track you in case you change IPs).

>>419052
Maybe the mods had a thing against you? If they hate you for something you posted 6 months ago, they can have their "revenge".

>>419099
okay what did I miss now.

>>419100
They don't have a "thing" against me - half the decent topic I've seen gets deleted nowadays.

There's also a janitor in the win-o threads on /co/ who posts his own referral links to everything (which is against the rules), but since he is a janitor, he can clear any reports his own posts get, as well as delete any posts which point this out.
4chan is run entirely by the janitors now.

>>419101
>now
A few years at least?

>>419099
Shit, we just asked for /film/ and /aco/, that's all......

>>419102
More like the best part of the decade. Ever since moot kicked the veteran mods over the gamergate drama.

/tg/ is complete fucking trash.

I miss the days when it was one of the higher quality boards which actually created content.

>>419708
Every damn board has been like that since 2012.

4chan proper is infected by the Green. People should avoid it and post here where its safe and there is large amounts of social distance.

>>419975
I hope they did a 1 day quarantine ban for everyone affected.

>>420000
Is that digital magic?

>>420000
I legit did not knew the board could do this.

Before the archive goes 404 (it's live for only a week after all), check out the remains of an April 1st thread:
https://boards.4channel.org/co/thread/114025374

On the day corrupted posts were actually various stages of green.

>>420013
Good thread, actually. I assume the Z̎Á̛LG͡O Anonymous's are infected.
>(it's live for only a week after all)
but then we can see it on green desuarchive!

The long /v/ thread on /co/
https://boards.4channel.org/co/thread/114186340

RIP catalog.neet/tv

>>420240
what happened? It loads fine for me.

>>420242
It was dead for at least 24 hours for me.

4chan now uses hCaptcha instead of reCaptcha on the reports page.

>>420348
What is the difference?

>>420398
Somehow it is WORSE.
And they restored the old ones now.

>>420400
>Somehow it is WORSE.
I've only used it a could of times (when Cloudflare switched) and had no problem at the time. Have the challenges become harder?
Bias: fuck google

So what is the deal with the new black text ads at the top and bottom of 4chan boards now? Why don't ad blockers hide them?

>>420668
I am using Pale Moon with eMatrix fork and uBlock Origin both running, and I have no issues.

>>420668
>>420669
yeah, I'm not seeing any extra ads either. However 4chan has been essentially impossible to use without adblock ever since Hiro took over - the ads are more disgusting than what people are posting.

>>420765
Casual racism has always been a part of imageboard culture. And, if I'm being honest, all human cultures. People shit on the other tribe next to them all the time.

>>420766
Back in 07 everyone on 4chan called each other nigger and faggot, it was so common that it carried zero insults anymore.

>>420766
>>420767
Let's not pretend that racism hasn't been against the rules since at least late 07 and only lax moderation allowed it to happen on boards other than /b/.

New Board
https://boards.4channel.org/vrpg/

>>420770
Seems unnecessary

>>420771
Not really. /v/ is one of the biggest boards on 4chan; this makes it extremely fast and very hard to moderate. Cutting it up is therefore necessary for keeping the site more advertiser-friendly. It's also why /b/ had so many boards made specifically to cut off content from it.

>>420772
But its not like much slower boards have good moderation

>>420774
The slow boards are OVER moderated. The larger boards can get away with shit that would get moderated instantly on the slower boards, simply due to their size.

At any rate, an RPG board isn't what /v/ would have needed, it would've been either a board for streamers / youtube celebrity bullshit (someone brought up /incel/ for INternet CELebrity, which I think is ingenious), or a /v2k/ board for 6th and 7th console generation stuff, to parallel /vr/.

/tg/ is a pretty slow board and its absolute fucking garbage nowadays with endless spam and shitposts.

>>420777
/co/ and /g/ are full of garbage too, all I ever see are the same usual 10 general threads, plus a lot of smaller ones that disappear without many posts or get outright deleted.

Okay this is just getting ridiculous now
https://boards.4channel.org/vmg/

>>420814
goddamnit.

>>420814
Mobile games are cancer.

>>420814
This isn't entirely bad though. Mobile games are shit and no one really wants to discuss them, so at least they'll be kept off of /v/.

It does open a dangerous precedent though. At this rate they could make a PC gaming only or a Nintendo-only board.
