What is something you like and something you don't

Good threads get slid by the constant posting of one line shit threads.

What's really the point of making a well thought out post when the thread is just going to die within 10 posts?

How many fucking jew and stirner threads do we really need?

Humanities needs to be removed and half the board needs to be purged.

I like the funposting.

I don't like the hi where are the serious discussions autisms.

ZERO ambition as a community, needs stickies so that our meme convos can progress, should be leading the historical conmunity in terms of shitposting but is lagging

I dont think well ever see it. Admins never improve anything but their main board.

/ic/ is the last good board here. Admins should be taking setup ideas from 8c

>>2190093
This mindset is why no 4chan board has ever moved beyond freshmen tier humor.

Good humanities are the ones related to history like linguistics, anthropology and archaeology which are actually more interesting than history itself because they tell a story far more interesting than what the people who wrote down history had to tell.

Bad humanities are things like philosophy.

I like lurking and finding out some cool historical event I hadn't heard about . history is so massive, like I didn't know in high school what the fuck Rhodesia was they never spoke about it.

Dislike the /pol/ anal leakage that trickles down here (lots of boards have this problem). I fucking browse pol but shit. Those guys are literal cancer.

i like that we're sympathetic to nazis and aliens.

this place is what would happen if pol and x had a baby but the baby was more legit that the parents because the baby was real and the parents were just ideas.


also, fanta was created by the nazis due to a honey shortage.

+ Some really good threads (recommended reading, library of alexandria, the anon doing the spreadsheet)

- When people jump into threads and begin shitposting as a result of having no idea wtf is going on

>Literature & Philosophy

Your thoughts?

Like: Long-winded posts that source their information from places other than wikipedia and thoroughly discuss a subject

dislike:

Religious discussion outside of historical context
De jews posts/ cringeposts from /pol/
One line/sentence posts
People who enter threads to discuss topics they do not understand or have researched whatsoever but formed an opinion of based on a paradox game
People who attempt to explain history with a narrative to reinforce (pol and commies)
"Redpill me on X" tier shit that is actually banned on /pol/ back during the zimmerman trials because it was jargon nonsense
Metathreads irrelevant to both history and humanities, like this one.
And most importantly the fact that the most educated and well thought out discussions are in dead threads.

Pros: Really good threads about topics I'm not well versed in and enjoy hearing about
Con: Pol's vacation home

>>2190355
I think the problem most people have is that "Humanities" can be used to justify almost anything being posted. As a result we get really poor threads scarcely related to History or Humanities. It also means that history threads are outnumbered by humanities threads, despite history being the primary purpose of the board.

When /pol/ or /leftypol/ comes and shitposts

At first I thought the anti-humanities people were wrong but now I think they are right.

All the good posts are historical, all the shitposts are humanities.

>>2191170
This mostly. I don’t even hate humanities, but the quality is terrible.

Historic threads are usually informative and interesting. And when it comes about funposting, it's mostly friendly jokes about events/historical figures/civilizations and not about attacking other anons.

Humanities threads in another hand are logical fallacies incarnated. You rarely see debates with well-structured arguments. It's impossible to have a good discussion without shitposting, spamming pastas, derailing and baiting. You can't even discuss religion without other sects autisticaly screeching and saging it to death.

>Chauvinists

People who learn about something for the first time in a thread and then pontificate about it based on what was in the thread.

Example: Garbo is apparently the greatest spy who ever lived, because that's how he was described in a thread last week. Disregard that he's famous for explicitly NOT being a spy of any kind and for having the balls to send the Germans information he had made up, mixed with real information the British government GAVE him to boost his credibility.

This. I gave up on this place when I first created a good quality thread discussing the effects on religious communities by Urbanization do to the Market Revolutions; how technology, politics, and topography might have played a role in forming new religious movements (such as Mormonism).

I thought it was a fuck little thread. I put a lot of effort into dropping primary source material. However, the thread died quickly with only 3 replies.

>>2189923
/his/ is a reddit colony which explains alot, shitty bants, full of virtue signaling and apologists and fedora untermench that complains about "muh serious threads"

>>2191226
What if humanities treads are so shit because historians shit them up. Because historians have no clue how to create a logical argument and all they do is recite things they read somewhere else. It's even common practice to refer to Wikipedia.

But really your opinion is confirmation bias at it's finest. You probably don't even look into most humanities threads and just open the ones that have 200+ replies, which are obviously those with the most bait and shitposting in them. When I open the first history thread in the catalog with 200+ replies right now it's nothing but racebaiting as well. But please tell me how it's informative and interesting to talk about the IQ of africans for the 10.000th time.
>funposting
Reminder that ironic shitposting is shitposting.

Yeah, I understand. Once made a thread on /g/ about how Java Server Pages might be better than PHP under certain circumstances. Provided reading material and benchmark test. After 30 min or so I had only 5 replies and then it archived.

But if you just post fuck al niggers on /pol/ or macbooks are for fags on /g/ you will get a massive shit storm and the thread will be alive next day if it didn't hit the bump limit.

It's more of a problem for this whole site. Not just this board. It's filled with filth. But what do you expect from a place like this that attract societies outcasts. There is a reason they are here.

But to get back at OP. I would like to see more discussion about humanities. All I see is history.

Stirner spook posting is getting out of hand.
