Mods please help

Mods don't care. The only thing people can agree on in those threads, before they went full /b/, was that the current moderation team needs to be replaced. They're not going to stop the spam from drowning that out.

What makes you think mods are gonna give a shit? I have been seeing this Muh Official Rules shit the whole fucking week, and not one , NOT ONE. of those fucking threads have been deleted..

Well, at least my slow ass thread archived. I got bored of it anyway.

Too much RUUURUS.

>>147504730
I think those threads are a pretty good example showing that generals are evil and deteriorate in quality faster than anyone could measure.

>>147504730
Why though? Discussing rules isnt against the rules

>>147504730
Don't forget the e-celeb threads. Self-moderation only goes so far. I can report threads and garbage posts but it only matters if the mods and jannies actually take action.

Is Little Witch Academia going to air in Japan or must we suffer from Netflix?

>>147505167
Global rule 8

>>147504828
What are they supposed to do?

This is why nothing gets done. Because everything is always 50/50 split. No matter what you do there is always some articulate and autistic guy on the opposing side willing to shit up threads and /a/ in general with his bitching.

I guarantee you somebody is telling mods to let the threads be because Hiro "sanctioned" their discussion. That's why we've had these generals for a week now on multiple boards. They will eventually fizzle out, but letting the people out of those currently contained threads is not going to be fun for anyone at this point. Wait until it dies down, the circlejerk begins, and you can easily cull anyone still trying to force the threads.

>>147505167

I think this shit is stupid and shouldn't be allowed in the first place but that aside there certainly doesn't need to be a dozen fucking threads it's just become shit spamming at this point.

>>147504730
mods are intentionally letting those threads run wild so they can have an excuse to ban meta threads forever

When will reddit leave.

/a/ is fine as it, the ONLY thing that should be changed is banning general type threads

>>147505388
It shouldn't have to take a fucking week.

>>147505365
>This is why nothing gets done. Because everything is always 50/50 split.

Nothing gets done because every time we try to fix 4chan the shitters disrupt the threads so their precious funposting doesn't get dealt with.

Mods? No. We got our brilliant admin to give thanks for starting all this shit. HIRO TO THE RESCUE

>>147505504
>hiro
>doing something

Hiro is too lazy to browse the board and see what people seem to want, so he just said that everybody needs to come to an agreement or nothing happens
Doesn't help that people can barely communicate with him, so it takes him two days to understand what someone said, to then just leave the thread and forget about it.
In terms of /a/ there's very little that needs to be done.

Someday people will look back on this period of /a/ history and say it was great.

>>147505573
We really need someone who speaks fucking English to admin this site. Hiro was a mistake.

>>147505372
That's the whole point. It's been one whole week and that faggot is still making metathreads every day as soon as the last one died. If we don't spam this shit to death, he will keep making more metathreads for the foreseeable future.

>>147505607
Anyone who does is a complete fucking retard.
This may very well be the worst period in /a/'s history. Even spam was more creative than this.

>>147505467
That's sort of what I was trying to imply. For things that aren't legitimately black and white, extremely clear cut, /a/ and 4chan as a whole is just too big and there are too many people who will either disagree or just intentionally shitpost to stop anything from changing.

Things like manhwa, I see as clear cut. It's really not "anime or manga", and I don't think /a/ would be hard pressed to at least form a majority opinion on it. Other things are much less clear. Like "quality of posts", people deem different things as shitty or 'quality' in their threads, certain images or content or what have you. We'll never get a consensus on things like that, and we already have dedicated shitposters who take up arms over images of certain characters or artists being posted. (Not talking people posting samples or actual bad image quality).

>>147504730
moot would've never allowed this to happen.

>>147505707
I would've say 'who' but we really needed him here.

Hiro is too busy posting /pol/ shit on the 4chan twitter.

>>147505707
He probably would have. Just it wouldn't be half measured. He would change the board title to /a/ - meta and have some silly video play. Then the whole board would be shitposting for a day and then go back to normal again once it is over.

>>147505646
Is it really any worse then snk generals? I mean clearly people like posting them. So I think they should be allowed if other generals are allowed.

I mean if you don't like them ignore them? That is what all the general lovers parrot right?

>>147506149
You're right.

Nothing changed. The threads were there before and the threads were there after. Stop trying to revise history.

>>147506713
Remember when you used to get banned for naruto threads and bleach threads got shitposted to death? Good times.

>>147506835
In 2008-9 maybe. /a/ hasn't changed since 2010-11 (with the exception of the time mods banned generals for over a year).

>>147506713
Shut the fuck up mate, naruto wasn't allowed to be posted here before moot betrayed us. Big three threads used to be a rare event, but then they began appearing weekly, then daily.

>>147506713
The ocassional threads were there before. In case of Naruto, they were spammed.
After, off-topic posts no longer ruled naruto threads.
Ocassional threads became 24/7 threads with

>>147506912
Don't forget the cancer of monster girls. I think a thread used to pop up once a month, then the manga came out, and became bi monthly, then weekly then daily. I used to really like it, now its all cancer.

Also, why do people post about DBZ? That shit is more than a decade old and they just say the same shit.

The main problem we have now is generals. That shit needs to get banned.

>>147507098
A general is only malignant when it develops a circlejerk. Generals with no circlejerk are fine, but it's debatable whether they're possible.

>>147507450
The DJT has so many people coming and going due to the nature of its subject matter that it's pretty hard for it to turn into a circlejerk in the same way that SnK and Jojo threads do. It doesn't even have any tripfags.

>>147507450
Generals are a lot like muslims, at first when they come into your country they seem okay, tolerable at best.

Then out of nowhere all these bombings (circlejerks) start happening, what do you know its the muslims (general threads) that are the root of the cancer.

>>147507450
>Generals with no circlejerk are fine, but it's debatable whether they're possible
Is better to say constant 24/7 threads are the problem as that is what causes that. If there was a way to curb people from keeping a thread alive though low quality shit like image dumps, daily doses/memes, tripfag circlejerking, offtopic shit, etc then there would be far less a problem as they would die naturally.

>>147507450
The Kawakami general was cool and useful, but it ended up being the only one to leave /a/.

>>147507620
>If there was a way
Can you come up with anything to that effect?

Actually don't bother, it's not like Hiroshima is gonna implement anything, however ingenious.

>>147507620
>If there was a way to curb people from keeping a thread alive though low quality shit like image dumps
Fuck m8 that's a terrible idea. Any scanlation thread would never survive.

>>147507603
>the Robot
If it only worked in the generals then this could possibly work, but it would basically be impossible to implement and have it be that selective. Having it board wide has too many downsides compared to the positives.

>>147507778
Not without dedicated mod intervention. Would need some kind of mod that just overlooks generals and removes a thread once its quality is below a certain level or is only getting by though people bumping with images/off topic shit.
Closest we got was when mods removed them from the board around mid 2011 until around 2013.
Probably won't happen again though since they are really lacking in recent years even though I am sure there are plenty of anons who would be willing to do it all for free.

Hiro is a fraud and a kike. Reminder that he is the retard that actually had his site stolen from him.

>>147507987
If it is actually on topic then it is fine. I was more talking about people dumping stuff like fanart.

>>147508070

>>147508138
Hopefully once moot become the top boss at google, he burns it all down and comes back to where he belongs.

>>147508070
>>147508183
Honestly I worry that Hiro will get sick of not making any money off of 4chan and sell it off to some random company

>>147508138
Don't think anyone would want to steal a site like 4chan. Be one giant legal liability with the shit that gets posted all the time even if it was just /a/ alone. And any changes to reduce it would just turn the userbase away/on the owner.

>>147508138

Because it creates a haven for /a/ related garbage.

Your argument can be applied to any general board that could potentially exist, doofus. "We only have a few generals, so that board would be slow and small!" Need I remind you that we have things like /his/ and /po/? /his/ used to only be the dream of a few dozen people occasionally meeting in the odd history thread.

Also: Respond to people properly.

>>147505365
No nothing gets done because my guess is that most people come into these threads for the same reason I do:

To watch 4-5 autists verbally flail at each other with text and image macros while another 2-3 autists sperg out about the first 4-5. Meanwhile 99% of the board is either reading for fun or trying to fan the fires of the first 2 groups.

>>147505707
>implying anything has changed greatly on this site outside of massive influx of newfags in 07, katawa shojo and then gg last year or so.

Hold me /a/nons, the dark age is coming.

One change that I'd like to see is for the mods to focus on whether or not posts disrupt discussions before they decide to remove them or ban the users responsible. I've noticed that people tend to get banned really easily even for things that aren't bothering anyone or against the rules, just because some autistic faggot complains about them really loudly while everybody else is content with the posts. This usually happens in conjunction with the autistic faggot accusing the mods of being incompetent for not removing the post or posts in question. All the mod sees is the singular complaint against the post and, in the absence of nay-say, he concludes that the consensus must be that the post needs to be removed.

This is an established psychological phenomenon: When people are unsure of what to do, they tend to look to the group to decide. If only one person is speaking up, his statement will seem to go for the group. This phenomenon has even caused groups to stand by and watch murder without doing anything, solely because every member of the group looks to the others and sees that they aren't doing anything. They get scared of being wrong and looking foolish to everybody, so they keep trying to gather more visual information instead of helping. Returning to the subject matter: This means that mods can be inclined to remove innocuous posts at the behest of obnoxious faggots who are being more disruptive than the posts they want removed.
