at the time the /mlpol/ brigade was in full force so perhaps "better" now

>discussion quality
Good, I'd say it's at pre-raid levels. People are generally being serious in serious threads and retarded in retarded threads.
>thread quality
Again, it's about the same.

I think /qa/ has pretty much recovered. Even in 2016 (and yes 2015) /qa/ was wrestling with sociopaths that spam threads as some sort of campaign against /qa/, so it's nothing new. The people that are doing this will be in this thread (if they aren't already) trying to imply their obsessive work is successful, but it should be ignored.

>>1441469
"discussion" on /qa/ is passive aggression and cookie cutter phrases a la "go back there", "retard", "bad thread", yet somehow they have the audacity to hate "kys" and "twitterspeak"

/qa/ has nothing to offer intellectually, so /qa/ /discussion" is null

i find the current threads "better" somewhat, because in comparison to the former low effort "i herald /mlpol/, i will occupy space in what i find to be an obnoxious manner in the hopes of getting what i want", insead you have nothing threads for nothing exchanges, using anime images as propaganda. it is less egregious, though still intellectually offering nothig

the subculture of bumping dead anime threads simply because they're anime, blaming boogeymen for people not already agreeing with you before you even attempted to prove why they should, "spinoff" factions conregating here, and general anime infrastructure shenanigans no one will attempt to prove to be moral keeps this board incapable of intellectualism. superficially when confronted with people not conforming, the anime part of the board says "go back there". that is the extent of /qa/ "discussion" and why it's worthless, unless you don't find proving morality important, and you look past the absence of proposing logic to only look at the people already agreeing with each other, where you might see exchanges in a hugbox setting

you do you but this board is shite

>>1441460
The freeze was irrelevant because the weeb mafia has been occupying /qa/ since February, trying to turn this into a 2D random/anime board.

>pre-raid levels
I wouldn't say I agree on that, although I very much agree to an extent on the post that popped up, now three posts above mine. I think there are more garbage posts(and threads) in every thread than usual so my visits to /qa/ and interactions have been more and more limited compared to before. I'll hope for the full recovery like you, though.

>>1441476
Thanks for in-depth post, I find my experience very alike yours. I'm also finding the multiple template threads tiring.
>you do you but this board is shite
It can improve, I would hope.

>>1441476
What kind of subjects should threads be made on to help foster quality? I don't think there has ever been many good threads on this board with good subjects. Most threads are usually whining about some ban or feature or drive by posting from other boards. The majority of threads here will always be lacking in quality.

>>1441488
>It can improve
You said you come here less often than you used to, and you wrote a good, on-topic, serious post. I'm in the same boat; I come here for meta-discussion of the site and I almost never visit here any more. Perhaps the board-ruining spammers will get bored once all the serious posters have gone, but if all the effortposters seek refuge elsewhere, it seems more likely that /qa/ will either become completely unusable, or just die.

>>1441488
>>1441586
So how many of these threads are you guys creating? The threads that get treated like shit are the /q/ variety demanding mod action, worthless complaints or threads attempting to create drama. Obviously the raidspam has been here a while and that's generally just ignored like the old days.
Link the threads you have personally made recently.

Baste concernbros

>>1441586
>/qa/ will either become completely unusable, or just die
I'll add that there has not been any(or barely any) moderation action on /qa/ and if you're like me, read the IRC logs concerning the board's state. I ultimately do not want to leave behind a board that has potential for anything resembling quality, but I am then perhaps considering looking for other places but I'd still want to visit and lurk until it does become a barren wasteland.

So you have no reason to complain. It has about 20-50 regular users depending on how you gauge a "regular" and if a chunk of them won't create the threads they want to see then said threads will not be made. This is not /v/ or /pol/ where you can rely on tens of thousands of people to create threads for you to read.
I create dozens of threads a month and I think they're pretty good (I'm >>1441474 also). Maybe I'm more optimistic because I don't sit on my butt and expect people to deliver content to me while I give nothing back?

>>1441460
Too much /pol/ trying to be shoved to /qa/'s throat.

>>1441645
Hilarious when 75% of the catalog is /a/ or /jp/-related shitposting

>>1441637
The problem with your post >>1441474 is that you think "board quality" = 150 anime related threads in the catalog that have nothing to do with meta. You say /qa/ recovered from pre-raid levels but you don't take into account that the weeb mafia is still raiding and has been since February. You say there is a faction who wants to destroy the board but it isn't the people you are falsely portraying, it's people like YOU instead who are trying to destroy the board by forcing your limited idea of "quality", which really just means nobody gets to post thins you don't like, especially meta.

>>1441626
>more optimistic because I don't sit on my butt and expect people to deliver content to me
My current and only expectation of the people residing is to think before posting and making threads. OPs aren't and shouldn't be the only ones expected to carry a thread on their own, primarily in a discussion based setting or thread. Simply making a thread perhaps fits to your content delivery definition, but not mine. OC is for the users by the users, so if no one is to participate there is no expectation being met.
Having said that, can you perhaps link some of yours, given that you claimed to make upwards of 10 threads a month(a number I'm afraid I would not reach at all as I'd think they would be of insufficient quality)? If anything those are probably the ones remaining that are devoid of repetitiveness.

In the early days of /qa/ it was possible to find a good thread amidst the garbage.

Only garbage remains.

I like it.

>>1441679

Your opinion will always be worth less than dirt, concernbro. You actively bump and create antagonistic threads while bragging about it and leave meta threads for the "weeb mafia" to bump- the threads you claim to support. Even when you didn't declare your intentions to do so, it was obvious because your posts appear at the same time the aforementioned threads are bumped and you've never once condemned said threads- to the contrary you used to compliment them because they (you) attack /qa/ and think it actually hurts the board.
Nothing you say will ever matter to anyone. I'd tell you to leave this thread and save yourself time, but you are a sociopath that will be here until the end of time because your grand purpose is to try and spread misery like a cartoon supervillain. However, like a cartoon supervillain, you are comically inept and will never succeed at anything.

How are you even certain that anonymous user is the "concernbro" you're referring to? I've yet to see you condemn any of the 2D random threads either. All you've done is deflect valid criticism aimed at those threads by ignoring the points of the people who raise them while dismissing them as "concern bros." The meta and frog threads won't hurt /qa/ in the long run; it's mostly you and your band of merry anime goons who will.

On small boards you learn how people type and the words they use. This was discussed on /qa/ last year, but I guess you had to have been on /qa/ back then to know that, huh? Strange.

>I've yet to see you condemn any of the 2D random threads either.
It's insulting that you would compare threads made for fun to those made out of malice. Those threads are judged individually instead as a whole, and there's no reason to point out bad random threads, but here's one for you >>1440628
Of course everyone here knows that's shit because it was made that way on purpose with greentexting, reddit mentions, and of course a bump that happened at the same time as frog bumps. Are you surprised I can tell the difference?

Although I should point out, while this thread seems well-intentioned, there are lots of /qa/ meta threads that are just outright trolling. Certainly going into those threads and arguing with them is not productive. Even worse is when somebody shits on a good thread with that bullshit and people respond. Maybe some of the people responding are samefags, but I doubt all of them are.

>It's insulting that you would compare threads made for fun to those made out of malice.
Fun? You've displaced threads with interesting or even passable topics in favor 2D random spam. Tell me what the difference is between your threads and the frog threads. Both groups are posting for fun as far as they're concerned, but the effects on /qa/ are the same. Am I surprised you can tell the difference? I'd be surprised if you could tie your own shoes!

>Valid criticism doesn't come from biased sources that want the worst for the board.
Valid criticism is valid criticism regardless of how biased one might be. The people who want /qa/ back call out your 2D random threads for what they are: wasteful, pointless spam that leaves a bad impression on the board and its community. Frogs or whatever other group echoes that observation does so to get under your skin. In the end, neither of us are wrong.

>Your already-flimsy mask completely fell off by this point.
As I said in another thread, the frogs are here as a response to the hostility and unpleasant attitudes your clique displayed to crossboarders in the past. THIS IS WHY /MLPOL/ PERSISTED EVEN AFTER THE COMPLETION OF THEIR OFFSITE HOME. If users like you weren't here, the frogs wouldn't be exacerbating the existing troll and spam thread culture that /jp/ users proudly started back in February.

/mlpol/ persisted after the completion of their new home because they were still hoping for a place on 4chan. I think they're largely irrelevant now, although you can tell a few of them still come here and shitpost from time to time.

The people who were mass bumping frogs (still active but may be one person now, it seems to be declining or they're moving to other types of threads) I'm pretty sure were mostly doing it to troll. And what they were doing is extremely boring if they don't get responses. /qa/ needs to do a better job ignoring it, but there are people who seem to think that responding to that shit is a form of fighting it. It's not; it's the opposite.

Hello /qa/. I'm going to give you some advice, and tell you what my plans are.

I'm going to do the following, and there is nothing that you can do to stop me.

I'm going to dump a massive archive of pepes into every thread that is even remotely related to sharing images of a topic.

I'm going to post threads with frogs in them

I'm going to slide anime threads.

I'm going to shitpost in all anime threads.

I'm going to make it known that this is a meta board, because that is what it is.

If you try to post your little IRC infographic, I'll post an infographic debunking it.

I will not let you have this board any longer. You've pissed me off for the last time.

Eventual, you WILL move. You have 300,000,000 /jp/ spinoffs, so you'll find somewhere else to go. I'm fine with that, as long as you're not on /qa/, I really don't care where you go.

I just want the pretentious weebs who aren't even from 4chan to go back to their spinoffs and stop bullying actual 4chan crossboarders. They are the only ones forcing this 'board quality' meme by treating this board like it's /jp/ and not the 4chan meta board.

>>1441858
Yeah, for all the talk about how these guys are only here to troll /qa/ because someone hurt their feelings or whatever, they simply aren't doing a very good job. Crossboarders from boards like /pol/ and /v/ are always ranting about how people from their boards keep giving shitty trolls attention and bumping their threads, but here on /qa/, it's the ``trolls'' that constantly need to necrobump their garbage.

Right here, with this sentence.

This is how I like to spend my Fridays.

>>1441896
No. I'm talking about you, specifically: the person who posted >>1441877.

>>1441866
>>1441818 Is in no way a sufficient refutation. If you ask a frog poster why it is they're doing what they're doing, they will say they're only trying to have fun just like the /jp/ group is. However, it's clear to anyone that they're miffed over something and therefore feel the need to send a message by derailing pro 2DR posters' attempts at turning /qa/ into a 2D random focused board. The pony posters were more forthright about their reasons for spamming /qa/ and basically did it for the same reason the frog posters are doing it now. If a bunch of frogs suddenly appear out of nowhere to spam /qa/, and do so consistently, obviously it's being done to spite some part of the community. That would be you and the rest of the 2D random posters.

This is why I said that as far as both groups are concerned, they're posting for fun. You and the rest of the anime goons are spamming up /qa/ to turn it into 2DR. The frogs are spamming /qa/ to get back at you.

>>1441952
lol, see >>1441878

>>1441959
This would be a valid conclusion if it weren't for the fact they seem to be eliciting responses in the form of bump bots and passive aggressive threads aimed at them by 2DR posters. If what they were doing went ignored and had no effect on the intended audience, they wouldn't be receiving "dumb frogposter" or "go back there" responses, and their threads wouldn't be getting bumped out of the catalog by bump bots. You and the others been giving them all the attention they're looking for and more.

>>1441775
>On small boards you learn how people type and the words they use.
Only the worst, most self-assured shitheads do this, because they're always wrong. You've called me "concernbro" a dozen times, and a /mlp/olack before that, and "iceman" before that, for having the temerity to point out that a bunch of users who take their legacy from the great /jp/ shitposting era are total garbage.

This board is more enjoyable for me than the other boards I visit(ed).

>>1441969
The only thread with a redditfrog OP picture that I've responded to in months is http://desuarchive.org/qa/thread/1419358/ actually. As for the sole bot that is currently turned off, I think you're giving them far too much credit if you think it's a reaction to their spam.

>>1441952
They're really not having fun, though. You'll see angry outbursts from them occasionally. Not to mention their whole intent with imitating the words used against them (based, concern, go back there, bro and so on) is to try and hurt those that hurt them in the past.

>>1441969
>passive aggressive threads aimed at them by 2DR posters
Except that guy (or guys) gets called out for instigating because the true aim is to try and kindle some epic e-battle when everyone else wants to take it easy. When you see the responses in the thread it becomes pretty clear that no one supports that goal.

> they wouldn't be receiving "dumb frogposter" or "go back there" responses
You seriously believe that when a frog thread gets bumped after 10 hours with "dumb frogposter" or "go back there" it's opposition to the thread and not a blatant bump by the same people. You can't be this naive.

>>1441981
No, you're just the personification of human misery.

>>1441987
The bot that's currently turned off was turned back on just yesterday to remove their threads. I don't think that's giving them too much credit.

>>1441999
>the sole bump bot
>a blatant bump by the same people
Wow, the cognitive dissonance is thick around here.

>>1442009
Yeah, the people who bump threads at exact 1 minute intervals and don't bother deleting their posts are definitely bots too! While we're at it, go ahead and tell me about the weeb mafia and how the bot owner is one of them.

>>1442007
>The bot that's currently turned off was turned back on just yesterday
Huh, seriously? If that's true (I hope it is), it must have happened while I was asleep. Anyway. My point is that the bot is not a reaction specifically to them.

>>1442007
The bot is not in the business of removing threads, it is in the business of preventing that. The list of threads being protected is very short, and it was only brought back online because of pony posters beginning to engage in mass bumping and thread killing.

>>1442007
Bumping preserves threads, it doesn't kill others.

>>1442009
Respond to me like a human that wishes to have a conversation instead of passive-aggressive greentexting.

>>1442029
Typical. It's like you think the weeb bumpbot is bumping quality threads or something.

>>1442032
The people bumping at one minute intervals are doing so out of anger and spite at the pretentious weebs who think it's ever justifiable to have a bump bot.
You're missing the point that theirs is a reaction to you being so pretentious that you think the weeb bumpbot is justified.

Yes, yes, "they". Please tell us more about what "they" think.

Do you have an objection to any specific thread it's bumping?

>doing so out of anger and spite at the pretentious weebs who think it's ever justifiable to have a bump bot.
There was at least one idiot ranting about the bump bot even when it was off.

>>1442043
That's the guy who runs the bot responded to your incoherent rage about the "weeb mafia".

Alright concernbro is back to his usual shit so I'm done entertaining him.

Actually, looks like he's here so I'll just let him do the talking. Go ahead and tell him to go back to [insert copypasted list of /jp/ spinoffs]

>>1442047
It isn't my incoherant rage, it's the rage of everyone here that isn't a weeb who gets disenfranchised by all the weeb mafia antics.

Much more relevant thread than that other one:
http://desuarchive.org/qa/thread/1374236

>>1442051
To date you have called 8 different people 'concernbro', including me, and those are just the instances I've seen personally.

>>1442059
I don't care. Try not being a coward and actually reading his posts for a change instead of continuing to ignore reality.

>>1442064
>8
And you got that figure from where?

>>1442064
Yet you're calling people part of the weeb mafia who aren't even interested in controlling the board.
The double standards are apparent.

>>1442066
And II don't care that you don't care. I wasn't asking if you cared or not. Try not trying to force this board into your personal idea of 'quality' using bots instead of continuing to ignore reality.

>>1442069
The double standards are indeed apparent. For every frog thread in the catalog at any given time there are at least 3 or 4 weeb shitposting threads.

>>1442071
You're not replying to the person who runs the bot, and you have yet to explain how bumping a small number of threads "forces" anything.

>>1442071
Good thing I don't do that - I don't need to, since my idea of quality is shared by other people.

>>1442079
For one thing you're crazy if you honestly think there is only one bot. For another, there is nothing small about the number of threads which gets bumped. For yet another, they don't get bumped at all unless they have an anime OP image.

>>1442082
It doesn't matter how many of your fellow spinoff weebs agree with your idea of board quality. There are always going to be people here who disagree and tell you and your quality to fuck off, which begs the question of why you would choose to post it here in the first place unless you were trying to dictate the way the board operates with bots.

>>1442089
>which begs the question of why you would choose to post it here in the first place
Are you finally beginning to see the light?

Why are you still trying to engage this guy on a level playing field.
It's totally pathetic how people on this board are giving this guys opinion legitimacy by holding rational discussion.

>>1442096
See what light? If you mean the obviousness of their agenda, then sure.

>>1442099
You're only mad because you know I'm right.

>>1442103
>If you mean the obviousness of their agenda, then sure.
Yeah, I guess not. You'll get there one day.

>>1442085
>For one thing you're crazy if you honestly think there is only one bot. For another, there is nothing small about the number of threads which gets bumped.
There might be another bot doing mass bumping. Someone has done that occasionally, although I'm not sure it was a bot. The rate was consistent with 1 IP address. It could just be someone with 4chan X. In any case, I doubt it was automatic, more like one person triggering it. I'm not positive what their intentions were, but they seem to have stopped doing that as much, which is a good thing; they were doing more harm than good.

>For yet another, they don't get bumped at all unless they have an anime OP image.
Only 2/7 out of the current list have an anime/manga/similar OP image.

>>1442107
Hopefully you would have realized that this is never going to be 2D/random and go back to your spinoff by then.

>>1442110
Keep on trucking.

>>1442089
Why should anyone listen to a minority who gets upset at certain kinds of threads, though? If the threads are well-intentioned, they should be posted.

>>1442116
Because the so called "majority" aren't even from 4chan, they're from spinoffs. The people you think of as "the minority" are the actual 4chan users here.

>>1442099
Mostly to correct falsehoods.

>>1442119
Source?

If the minority group has no leverage then the minority group's opinions shall be disregarded.

is probably the best place to get in touch if you think threads should be added to or removed from the list, or other suggestions. At some point in the near future I'll transition the thing to "bump only in case of attack" mode. Don't want the board to become dependent on bot action.

>>1442131
They aren't falsehoods, you can see it in action every hour of every day. For every frog thread that gets complained about there are many more weebshit threads that shouldn't be here, yet somehow the frogposting is the problem, right?

People complain about the bot even when it's off so there probably isn't any harm in that.

Haha yeah, epic fucking win. Post your favorite rage comic my bro.

That doesn't mean they're not from 4chan. Most people on /v/ use reddit, does that mean they're also off-siters?

>>1442156
Just because a meme gets culturally appropriated by reddit and twitter doesn't negate where it was first popularized.

>>1442154
Nobody disputes that there are a few posters from or who also use spinoffs, and some of them are notorious shitposters. But that doesn't prove anything about the majority.

They would be the standards of most weeb mafiosos on /qa/. They think some of their /a/ and /jp/ spinoffs are "truer" to the spirit of old 4chan than modern 4chan is, which makes them emboldened and justified in what they do here.

>>1442161
Actually a great many posters dispute it just like you're doing right now that they are the "majority". It's a false majority though because these people don't even like 4chan for the most part, and are afraid of /a/ and /jp/'s janitors.

Was around 1 post per minute before I made the thread. Still waiting on >>1441626 before this clown spams the shit out of the thread.

>>1442175
I'm asking about your standards. You're the one saying that people who use /jp/ spinoffs are not from 4chan.

>>1442171
Sorry man, I was uploading it to rapidshare but I accidentally the whole thing. Fail.

>>1442184
Let's just say I believe you for a moment. Why do you post on this board at all without talking about /jp/ issues? Do you think the point of this board is really to "take it easy" ?

>>1442207
Why do you think my personal standards matter? They don't any more than your personal idea of "board quality".

If you must know, it were up to me this would be a text board like /news/ where only the OP off a new thread would be allowed to post an image..

>>1442213
I've already talked about most /jp/ issues that I care about to exhaustion, including many times well after the supposed ``weeb mafia takeover'' in February.
>Do you think the point of this board is really to "take it easy" ?
Pretty much.

>>1442213
/qa/ is not about board issues. It was created for the Q&A and kept alive because people wanted to share board culture and discuss 4chan history. We're still doing that. Those with board issues are advised to contact the mods via IRC or feedback.

>>1442195
Oh sorry I didn't see that post. I'm trying to think of the recent threads I've made. The only one I have alive right now is >>1394045. I host the anime stream for /qa/ so you probably hate me for that, but I started it because it's something the board can do together.
>>1378879
>>1378780
I can't actually think of others and have trouble searching my history for them. Uhh....
The "ask another board a question" thread isn't mine, but I started them last year.

>>1442213
>Do you think the point of this board
There is no point to this board. If you want to create a meta thread there is nothing stopping you. Please do, in fact. I'm not full of ideas for threads. But if your idea of a meta thread is to complain about mods or say how much you hate posters from ___ don't expect a positive reception.

>>1442219
>Why do you think my personal standards matter?
I don't know, why do you? You clearly do since you use them to push biased narratives.

>>1442223
Well for what it's worth I'm sorry you get caught up the blame for the weeb mafia's antics, but I strongly disagree with this being the 'take it easy' board. That attitude might as well be tacit support of their cause to turn this into 2D/Random. This is not a board for casual conversation in my view, it's a board for people to vent/complain/suggest things and to discuss problems on other 4chan boards so they don't mess up their home board with threads like that.

>>1442227
/qa/ is about board issues. it's kept alive because it's good at that when you people aren't shitting it up with Tenshi eating a Corndog.

>>1442228
There is absolutely a point to this board. You just don't care what it is because you want it to be something it isn't.

>>1442233
I don't and there is nothing biased about calling out the number of weeb shitposts compared to the relatively small number of frog shitposts.

>>1442244
>/qa/ is about board issues. it's kept alive because it's good at that when you people aren't shitting it up with Tenshi eating a Corndog.
Mods could turn /qa/ into /q/ right now and there'd be no stopping them. Any resistance would be futile as /qa/ would be flooded by people seeking real help from the mods with their boards' problems. But they don't do that, because they aren't interested in discussing things with users. That's not something we can change.

>>1442244
>Well for what it's worth I'm sorry you get caught up the blame for the weeb mafia's antics
What are you apologizing for? I already said, I make ``2D/Random'' threads and post in them. As far as you're concerned I might as well be one of them. You're also mistaken about their (our?) cause: there's no need to turn this board into anything, because taking it easy doesn't require official recognition or whatever.

>>1442244
Yeah you do since you use the fact that these people are "not from 4chan" (which you haven't proven) as an argument.

/qa/ is so good at discussing and solving board issues that it's nearly unmoderated and is not even regarded as a real board by the mods

>>1442248
The problem is that too many of the weebs think meta = old /q/. This board is more meta than /q/ ever was, and that's even as it is under weeb mafia occupation since february.

On /q/ if people tried to start a meta thread it got drowned out and derailed, usually by someone from /pol/ calling them JIDF or SRS.

>>1442252
I was apologizing because I thought you were getting wrongly blamed for 2D Random shit. I guess you were getting rightly blamed after all then.

>>1442254
Again, when the weeb shitposts outnumber the frog shitposts by at least 3 to 1, the frogposting is not the problem, the weeb shitposters are, and most of those aren't from here..

>>1442259
I didn't even say anything about frogs and again you're making baseless accusations.

>>1442260
Oh so you like frogs then?
>baseless accusations
They clearly aren't baseless when you can look at the catalog right now and see it in action.

>>1442263
I hide them just like I do with other trash. It's baseless because you still haven't proven and will never prove that these people are not from 4chan.

>>1442228
Overall I find those threads are average and the stream despite being a stream is fine, but I wouldn't make them except for >>1378879 and the 'cross-board Q&A' threads. Shame that two of those threads were artificially kept alive when no one else picked up interest in it, I don't agree with that and it should've died and picked up another day as the resulting payoff was shit. So it's not enough to create good OPs but you need users to contribute in order to foster discussion.

>>1442256
Removing the (You) mark was probably the best short-lived decision that came from /qa/, despite it being spammed everyday by an autist.

>>1442259
>I was apologizing because I thought you were getting wrongly blamed for 2D Random shit.
Why would you think that? I even linked one of my threads.

>>1442256
That must be why /qa/ is the scapegoat and dumping ground for metashit. Mods know that this board is of such high quality that it can overcome any horrible posters that even look at /qa/ posts. My respect for the staff of 4chan has never been higher.

>>1442264
I don't have to prove anything, idiots like >>1441702 keep doing it for me.

>>1442272
I don't care if you made it or not. That thread shouldn't get bumped by the bumpbot. It makes me annoyed, but it makes others seething mad enough to actively fight you people. I honestly feel sorry for you if your only goal for being here is to take it easy on a board full of crossboarders complaining about things.

>>1442277
Again you fail to understand the difference between "using other sites" and "also using other sites". But ok, keep telling yourself whatever you like.

>>1441476
Your grade is an F- for improper capitalization.

>>1442277
You really think people create threads for and even link /jp/ spinoffs for anything other than trying to get it raided by people like you? You or someone else even went there to make some shitty comments so it accomplished that goal. Congratulations.

>>1442279
You fail to understand that you don't get to tell 4chan users what to do when you spend more time on a spinoff.

>>1442277
>That thread shouldn't get bumped by the bumpbot.
It doesn't, but that's not for you to decide.
>It makes me annoyed, but it makes others seething mad enough to actively fight you people.
I honestly feel sorry for then if their only goal for being here is to complain about things on a board full of people taking it easy.

I love how you can't keep your story straight. It's the "others" that post and bump the frog threads out of anger, but then you admit you do it yourself. In other words, you just admitted you're seething mad which is something we all already knew.
You try to take some moral highground when you outright admit that you flood the board with threads that are intentionally shit because you can't have your personal army threads any more.

I never said every anime poster was from a /jp/ spinoff. Only most of the weeb mafia shitposters are.

>>1442399
Stop writing shitty fanfiction.

>>1442372
that's instigator bro and he's still doing that to this day. He even went to the mlpol site to try and start fights then after they wouldn't raid /qa/ for him he said he would raid /qa/ with shit himself.

>>1442388
Then this is proof that every frogposter is a horsefucker:

>>1442402
Stop pretending real life is fiction

who cares?

This thread might as well be stickied.
Going to "self-moderate" this shit next time it gets made.

>>1442405
You're the one doing that. At least that "weeb mafia" picture was funny.

>>1442404
It's too bad you were already proven wrong here then
http://desuarchive.org/qa/thread/1370798/#1371180

>>1442403
instigatorbro is more of a concerntroll than all the other concernbros combined.

>>1442410
No, you're the one pretending like this is all happening in a vacuum and we can't just go read threads like >>1440652 with posts like >>1440654 in them where they know if the hima whitelist is up or not. Of course this is normal behavior for a /qa/ regular to you.

This is the best thread /qa/ has had in the current month.
No one other than myself can tell this guy is crafting an elaborate persona of himself to gain legitimacy behind his actions of bumping frog threads and making dumb /pol/ shit.

God I hate discussion forums.

>>1442384
There's no gain in using a capturing group when the result of the capture is not used, not even readability or composition since it's just '?:'.

>>1442405
dreams are reality, reality is a dream

>>1442413
You hate discussion forums but you're on the 4chan meta board. I will never understand you people. iunb4 "my friends are here".

>>1442415
row row row your boat gently down the stream then and get off 4chan.

>>1442413
Nah, we know that, it's just fun to argue sometimes.

>>1442411
That only proves that there are people here who also browse other imageboards including /jp/ spinoffs. Anything beyond that is speculation.

>>1442411
>No, you're the one pretending like this is all happening in a vacuum and we can't just go read threads like >>1440652(Cross-thread) with posts like >>1440654(Cross-thread) in them where they know if the hima whitelist is up or not. Of course this is normal behavior for a /qa/ regular to you.

That has nothing to do with the thread he linked, and doesn't prove anything either.

>>1442414
So /(jdsf)?jfr/
vs
/(?:jdsf)?jfr/
run the same and either can be used without consequence. I do see the point in using them if you were to use capturing groups and non-capturing groups in a single regex.

>>1442418
Then the board is an argument board solely because /qa/ is so fucking boring that that's all there is to do here.

>>1442424
Oh it does but keep denying it if you want.

>>1442423
I'm sorry but if you honestly believe every frogposter is a horsefucker then there is no hope for you. That's even more ridiculous than every anime poster being from a /jp/ spinoff.

>>1442427
/qa/ is what we make of it. I find plenty of threads to enjoy.

>>1442413
Who are you referring to, OP?

Brainlet doesn't understand an analogy to point out fallacious logic. WILL THEY EVER LEARN?

>>1442435
Occam's razor says you are one of the people afraid of /jp/'s and /a/'s janitors which is why you shitpost with anime here, nothing more. It then is a logical conclusion that you would also post on spinoff boards designed for anime shitposting.

>>1442342
>>1442426
What does this even do?

>>1442440
>Occam's razor says you are one of the people afraid of /jp/'s and /a/'s janitors
Looks like you don't know what Occam's razor is, either.

Next time try not starting out on a false premise then.

>>1442445
It's the easiest possibility is the most likely one, like you being a weeb mafioso who posts on spinoffs even though you're denying it heavily.

>>1442446
>It's the easiest possibility is the most likely one
Yeah, now which one of these requires the least assumptions:
1. People who use image filename + MD5 hash combinations that first showed up in this board during the /mlpol/ raids and post the same kind of thread are most likely the same people
2. People who use image filename + MD5 hash combinations that first showed up in this board during the /mlpol/ raids and post the same kind of thread just so happen to save images with the original filename, just so happened to have been here during the /mlpol/ raids, and just so happen to post the same kind of content

It's one thread and it's been weeks since people let off steam like this. Everyone will go back to ignoring this sociopath after this thread dies.

>>1442446
What false premise? I showed you a poster who is both a frogposter and a horsefucker. You claim you can generalize from posters who are both "weeb shitposters" and spinoff users that all or most "weeb shitposters" are from the spinoffs.

>>1442455
for like five years straight the only people who begged for 2d / random were /jp/sies mad that the janitor wouldn't let them do it in /jp/

where did the other people come from

>>1442452
>>1442455
So which one of you is the guy who measures the time in between posts and makes the graphs and the hilariously off-base assumptions about it all? I remember the other day you were whining about how there was only one frog poster bumping everything when I was doing it alongside 2 other people myself.

>>1442461
For starters, all the people who were sick of /qa/ being treated as /q/ and welcomed other topics.

>>1442463
Nice try but that's not me and you didn't answer my question.

>>1442464
that isn't someone actually posting 2d / random, that's just someone who thinks it's less shit than the "delete /pol/" era

>>1442465
what did these people come to /qa/ for, exactly? is any of it left?

>>1442463
>when I was doing it alongside 2 other people myself.
And you know that how? Discordbro outs himself.

>>1442471

>>1442470
>that isn't someone actually posting 2d / random, that's just someone who thinks it's less shit than the "delete /pol/" era
It's the bot owner.

>>1442426
>run the same
No. The former has an additional side effect of saving a value in a block of memory that isn't accessed later. It's similar to writing var y = 'thing' and then not using it, except it's more expensive because it's an object property.

>I do see the point in using them if you were to use capturing groups and non-capturing groups in a single regex.
Perhaps, but again if the captured group isn't used it's a waste.

>>1442470
>what did these people come to /qa/ for, exactly? is any of it left?
see
>>1442227
and yes, in fact 2D/random fits into the original vision of /qa/.

>>1442478
But that's wrong though. You people got here in february and wouldn't leave.

i submit that he's an complete faggot for enabling some of 4chan's worst shitposters ever but i guess if he weren't around for the worst of it he's not to blame for his own ignorance

stop enabling these shit eaters

>>1442463
>I was doing it alongside 2 other people myself.
Wait, you mean it's organized people with a grudge? It's useful to talk to you sometimes because the more you talk the more you give yourself away. Although again, this was already known so it's nothing new.

>>1442470
>what did these people come to /qa/ for, exactly? is any of it left?
I came to /qa/ in 2015 when it was a laid back board where people discussed a variety of subjects, but had a slight focus on general internet discussion such as imageboards, moot, the past and so on. It turned into /q/ by shitters like yourself- it was not created that way by the original community.

>>1442472
So now you are claiming that you can recognize different people on an anonymous board? Why should I not believe >>1441775 then over your claim of 8 billion concernbros who you can recognize independently?

>>1442484
>imageboards, moot, the past and so on. It turned into /q/ by shitters like yourself
i'll tell you a secret: discussing site policy and moderation and how boards have changed over the years is inextricably tied to discussion of imageboards, moot, and the past. in the days after hiro's Q&A there was more whining about site policy and how admin a shit than ever before. people who care about something will complain about it. the people who ran all of them off at once is you.

>>1442484
As I've told you many times before, it's proportional. You don't have to keep up the pretense that you don't know that already. Most frog posts on this board wouldn't happen if not for the weeb mafia filling the board with anime shit.

>>1442488
i am really good at telling the difference between people who are myself and people who are not myself, so that makes two

i'm also capable of telling the difference between certain users; for example, you (>>1442488) are unlikely to be (>>1442463) wow that's a whole three fucking people i guess we're all chilling out in a discord somewhere

you're right there are actually only two people in this thread: you, and every other post made by the same sockpuppet on his thirty-one phones (spoilers: that's me)

>>1442499
It doesn't take much effort, just do it.

>>1442489
No, complaining about getting banned on /v/ for creating a porn thread or creating the 30th "/pol/ here, /qa/ is full of cucks" thread is not anything anyone that used the board wanted. You are unwanted trash that somehow thinks purely selfish threads for complaints against brick walls is the same thing as community threads with discussion and fun.
The community recovered and isn't going back to the personal playground of disgruntled teenagers ranting against mods or other boards.

>>1442490
Pure stupidity. You don't care about anything here and this juvenile behavior proves it. Who keeps the meta threads bumped? Not you and the other discord frogbros, that's for sure.

wow you're right literally EVERY thread on early /qa/ that was meta in some way was by a banned whiny user or a raider, and the board has ALWAYS had as little metadiscussion about 4chan as it does now. except that's wrong.

>The community recovered
the community recovered in the same way that a hospital that has been burned down and rebuilt into a crack house has recovered. yeah, it's there. it's sure as fuck not the same community.

People wouldn't get so mad if the weeb mafia didn't fill up the catalog with 145 anime shitposting threads.

For every post like >>1442469 which just got made there are two or three posts like >>1442008 and >>1442475. This is an ongoing problem.

>People wouldn't get so mad if the weeb mafia didn't fill up the catalog with 145 anime shitposting threads.
But isn't it the frogredditors who love posting shitty /r9k/ images under the pretense that they'll make people angry? Maybe they should get some self-awareness while they're at it.

>>1442549
it mostly depends on whether you're interested in maintaining a civil community, or whether you're interested in winning. most communities place a premium on maintaining a community that isn't on fire and force people to back down in order to keep community peace.

there isn't a unified community here, though, just a bunch of people who hate each other. if you back down, you lose.

>>1442528
Bot is only bumping 7 threads, you just have to pretend everyone's a bot because it's the only way you can understand why nobody wants to partake in whatever garbage you think the board should be full of.

>>1442561
You mean "But my friends are here!" is just a meme?

>>1442561
>there isn't a unified community here, though
And that's where you're wrong.

>>1442563
You're missing the point that you're a pretentious faggot who runs an illegal bumpbot.

there are sub-communities

>>1442567
There is no 2D Random community on 4chan. The community must be from a spinnoff.

>>1442513
>wow you're right literally EVERY thread on early /qa/ that was meta in some way was by a banned whiny user or a raider, and the board has ALWAYS had as little metadiscussion about 4chan as it does now. except that's wrong.
I just got done talking about the meta discussion /qa/ had. Your shitty "mods are shit wah wah wah" or "I hate /pol/ so here's another thread about it" threads are not meta. They are selfish whining from brats that think their crying deserves its own, sometimes multiple, threads.

>>1442563
bot permanently ran over the board back when bot runner decided it'd be a good idea to stick over one hundred threads onto the bump list and flush everyone else, and all meta complaining about the bot, off the board

>>1442567

Come arrest me, faggot.

Goddamnit, /qa/ is such a hilarious board.

>>1442571
>illegal
People do "illegal" things all the time on this board. What are you going to do about it? Call the mods?

>>1442574
nobody except visitors even bothers with meta on /qa/ anymore, because the old community that actually knew anything about 4chan has been swept away by an avalanche of avatarshitting 2dfags who would be better off shitposting at each other on discord, there are people in the "happening" thread who have literally never seen anyone quote their own post number.

all that's left is retards.

>>1442576
You're missing the point of why you have to do illegal things in the first place. Because you and your ilk think you have a monopoly on "board quality"

>>1442579
I'm going to do other illegal things to counter your illegal things.

>>1442591
>Yeah, just look at this dead thread and the rude replies it's getting
the thread might as well be dead. people spammed it to get it off the first page and it hasn't changed shit: everybody who doesn't like waves and waves of 2d/garbage and cheap shitty blogging will be spammed at and generally shitposted out of every thread, being told to go back there and continually called based concernbros until nothing is left but a trash heap.

i don't mind you feeding newfags information but that's hardly an example of any sort of actual discussion.

>>1442593
allegedly

>>1442597
I'm pretty sure he's talking about the thread he linked, and not /qa/'s newest general.

>>1442596
That's /qa/ including the "2Drandom agenda" people you idiot. I just told you I'm in that thread trying to help him and I'm one of your "enemies" that posts 2D threads. If his thread was "why are modcucks banning me from /r9k/" I would not participate. Learn the difference, retard.

>>1442597
So you're completely ignoring it existing as a meta thread about a guy asking a question about /r9k/ and getting helpful responses. How shameless.

>>1442601
congratulations to him on participating in a metathread that wasn't immediately shit on and slid by retards, then. may he contribute to many such threads in the future. but you know as well as i do that there was a time where such metathreads were not even notable because every fourth thread was one.

>>1442604
i did not ignore it. i specifically addressed it. it's still not a particularly good example of metadiscussion, not any more than someone getting an answer to a /wsr/ thread asking what are some where where blah is good discussion. people's back in forth with asan and after asan was fired was "actual metadiscussion" where people knowledgeable about the site had actual discussion.

>>1442604
Hey take it easy, dumb weebposter. Nobody is ignoring it. Everybody has moved on to >>1442553

fundamentally, for good metadiscussion, you need a cadre of people who are knowledgeable about the site and willing to share this knowledge, and since we all know a lot only about a little bit of the site, you need a lot of them. having these people around is an important part of a self-reinforcing community:

- they are capable of educating each other, and are some of the few people who can actually do so.
- they can tell off newfags with topical explanations, simultaneously fending off retards while educating /qa/.
- high-quality discussion among knowledgeable creates respect for knowledge and interest in 4chan history.

you lose enough of this core cadre and the community enters a death spiral: people who look around them and see only retarded shit and decide the place isn't worth their time anymore, and they leave too. metathreads getting slid off by mass-manufactured garbage and spammed by retards hardly helps. writing it out like this has made me realize that the heart of old /qa/, the people who waved goodbye to moot as he left with fond memories of dealing with moot's shitposting for years, has already scattered far and away to the four winds and honestly at this point it's possible that a random shitter from a random board might know more about 4chan and its history than the average /qa/ poster.

such is the fate of all internet communities.

Fuck, I read all this shit. Totally worth it

So what is the reason a thread exactly like mine was made when this thread despite being derailed satisfied what I mostly wanted to hear from /qa/?

>>1442977
