we all called that this would happen.
patch the exploit, make the code work on a modern server, and reset passwords. that's all. bare minimum to get it working and back online.

it's probably setting up the new server that took so long because they had to copy terabytes of active content for one, plus set up all the background processes the code uses.

patching up the SQL wouldn't take much time because you can write a wrapper around that shit (and they already had a semi-working mysqli implementation).

Their blog is hosted there, yes. It hasn't made any new posts ever since Hiro was caught lying about his server stats.

They also have their own news posts, but it hasn't been updated in a long time and they probably don't even know how it works, if it works at all (all they've been using it for is dumping the birthday pictures).

Well well well, FINALLY had an issue! Made a post where I said most miserable assholes on 4chan are not epic trolls pretending to shit on everything, but actual miserable assholes who really do think that way.

That simple statement offended somebody and thus deleted. Didn't get a warning or anything, but still makes you think.

/co/ still fucking blows. I thought the whole hack and jannies getting doxxed would've whipped the moderation into high gear, but the same low-quality crap is still rampant. I don't even know if I want to bother making a thread because it'll just end up being overrun with the same bot-tier derailing douchebags.
Maybe I'm just delusional and the userbase and current climate of the internet is the core problem that can't be fixed.

I was hoping the activity would still stay on plus4, but it was probably for the best that most of the anons had fled back to prime. Honestly, we were almost getting close to having schizos reside here. At this point, prime works best as a containment imageboard.

I noticed a few of them, but I don't think most of them would've put down roots here even if Prime had stayed down. Anons here know better than to give them the attention they crave. In any case there are literally no (You)s for them to feed on here.

regular 4 chan still feels like it's botted right now, threads are really bad all over the place, and you can really feel schizo hours when it's the same exited faggot that spams 15 threads in the hour with random subjects that feels like DeviantARt obcessions. /co/ in 2025 shouldn't be 50% waifu threads from 2013 shows.

i'm not surprised the jannies didn't learn after the hack. prime is still the same as it was before like if the last few weeks never really happened. i'm so sick of seeing every "Can we admit X sucks now" thread, every ragebait, every skibidi, every loudfag, every notepad spam, every jak, i hate it. it's a miracle plus4chan isn't dead thanks to its successfully active /md/ board. during the hack, i learned that there are actually other imageboards that actually get their shit together, and some of them are where i frequently lurk now. i think i enjoyed them because i don't see an active /pol/tard nor a frequent schizo spammer in sight.

I'm annoyed that a.i. art has infiltrated every single /aco/ porn thread. So much for "containment" threads, and they do nothing but get into arguments with other anons so it's so clearly just attention whoring.

How though? Telling them about our drawthreads via 4chan itself isn't viable, since the mods nuke posts containing links to altchans.

/co/ and its mods are embarrassing, an absolute gutter-tier non thread with off-topic images and zero discussion has been up for 3 days straight, yet still hasn't been removed despite probably having multiple reports on it. Majority of these files have been posted as well in unrelated threads before, just pathetic.
