>>15533559
It means disappointment on a scale I never knew before. All the topics I enjoyed have either left the board or mutated into something that's a shell of itself while the board itself has basically become another porn dump board, only this time it's "worksafe" porn.

The dumping grounds for norm-O retards to post vapid shit about idols and porn, like the mouth-breathing, pseudo-hedonists they are, thinking Japan's going to be magically better somhow. /jp/'s dead.

Because it would get 0 replies and/or deleted for not being a general, 3d general, or character picdump thread.

Either that or I'd get redirected to /vg/ if I wanted to talk about some doujin or porn game that was popular with them, or else if I talked about one that was in Japanese, no one would respond because no one would be able to read it or bother playing because it wasn't a VN. I should strive to create something like the rika niipah guy.

Shitposting and announcing my desire to fuck Alice with the collective.

I want to make a thread telling people Mabinogi is having a Type-Moon/Fate Stay Night event tomorrow, but I don't think a thread about it would stay up.

Looking at the archive and seeing old /jp/ talking about Mabi makes my heart ache.

>>15533559

>>15534623
The 0 replies thing sounds more likely than it being deleted, especially if its even remotely /jp/ and not literally a blog thread like this. I'm not sure why this thread is even still up so I mean that sets the bar pretty high for you.

>>15534775
I don't think this is a blog thread so much as a cry to the users and moderators to help decide what /jp/ culture is anymore, besides /a/'s dumping ground for kicked out threads. People are just treating it as a good ol' days thread.

A great success!

>>15534775
Being "remotely /jp/" isn't enough, it also has to stay ahead of some undefined quality threshold and steer clear of forbidden topics.

At the end of the day if you want to make a "high-quality on-topic OP" in /jp/ you're safe. The problem then is that either 1. the topic is new, and nobody in /jp/ is informed enough to talk about it, or 2. it's not new, in which case what you're probably actually making is just a new incarnation of a general thread. I'm not >>15534623, but those are the predictions that run through my head every time I consider making a new thread.

You used to be able to start threads with some shitty but intriguing post, and then keep the discussion alive with dumb memes and stupid shit until it's stuck around long enough for people to actually become interested, but that doesn't work if only "quality threads" and "quality posts" are allowed. 4chan has always been about searching for needles in haystacks. If you ban people from pointlessly throwing hay on the pile because it's "not quality", you're never going to find any needles.

Tranquility and comfort in routine.

It's been the best thing in my life for a few years. It was the first board I really liked when I quit being a /b/tard.
Both the good threads and the ritual threads, like flanfly, are things that distracted me from reality.
In a way, /jp/ makes me happy in the same way Yume Nikki does, but it also makes me happy in a less somber or numbing way too.
/jp/ is where the minds of NEETs detached from consumerism can express their ideas, and I love to read them.

>>15534854
>or 2. it's not new, in which case what you're probably actually making is just a new incarnation of a general thread.
This is the what general boogeymen actually believe. If a thread has ever been posted more than once, its a general.

It's the only place to talk about 2hu and still stay on the site since 2008.

I know literally zero other 2hu fans for such a supposedly popular game.

>>15534881
>This is the what general boogeymen actually believe. If a thread has ever been posted more than once, its a general.
If the threads recur to the point where the discussion starts to resemble one long thread, it's a general. That said, /jp/'s general threads are perfectly fine places for existing fans of a topic to congregate and discuss a topic they like. What they're very poor at is promoting content discovery. You're free to think whatever you want of them, but they are what they are.

I don't know. It feels like this is all I have left. Then again these days I don't feel I fit in that we'll anymore. A lot of the generals are about stuff I have a passing interest in and the touhou threads don't entice me like they used to.
Maybe I just hang around thinking there'll be a fun thread that reminds me what makes coming here worth it. I figure it's better to hope for that then do nothing at all

When I wake up after sleeping I'll make a thread with the fun of the old days.
A thread where /jp/ draws together, but different than the current ones. We've had it before years ago, so we have precedent.

>>15534899
I think generals are necessary to some extent, if they're about a specific topic(in which case calling them generals is an oxymoron, but it's what they're called.) There's no real way to have an ongoing discussion about playing an mmorpg, for example, with the people who play it by having 1 thread a week that hits max replies and then falls off page 10. Ongoing content should have ongoing thread, however I think actual generals where they just lump a bunch of topics together to have some hangout vaguely about something are pointless.
Like the game Kancolle is something people play, regardless of the quality, so it makes sense to have a dedicated thread. Monstergirls on the other hand, is like having a dedicated thread about catgirls or magical girls or if the elf thread that's around became a general.

>What they're very poor at is promoting content discovery.
How so? No one wants to discover your epic-meme-in-the-OP threads.

I feel /r/ and /wsr/ requirements should be loosened up though. There's no reason you shouldn't be able to ask "what are some good doujin rpgs" or something without getting banned and sent to /wsr/.

In general, unless someone is spamming, the mods should do more deleting and thread moving(to /trash/ or otherwise), and less banning. Like this thread or any other meta thread, move them to /trash/ instead of deleting/banning if they're grievously off-topic.

>>15534974
I think setting threads to autosage, and deleting threads, is okay.
Thread movement is bad, and /trash/ should be deleted. If a thread is off-topic, delete and warn the poster "use this board >>>/board/"
Or maybe not do invisible moderation anymore and say on OP's post "this user was banned for posting a /board/ thread in /jp/"

>>15534963

I've never played Touhou, or like idols, I just like reading people's comments.

>>15533738
I changed /jp/ board's name into Okuu Culture back when moot momentarily made it modifiable few years ago. Now I can't change it back.
I'm not even into this Okuute thing anymore since I've grown sick of it and 2hu on /jp/ in general.

a satisfaction and pride for giving up on life. living the easy life and knowing even the most advanced shitposting and trolling doesn't make me mad because what is there left to anger? a wasted life spent digging deeper into the void only to find that it was worth it the whole time and that I wish I started earlier

/jp/ is like a literal ghetto Touhou was put into when /v/ and /a/ didn't want it. Literally the Jews of 4chan.
Somehow it also became the urban ghetto full of NEETs who'd rather get welfare for mental disability (autismbux) than get a job, spend their time talking about how the other boards are keeping them down and appropriating their culture, cry when the authorities (mods/janitors) punishing them for doing wrong, complain about them not doing a proper job in general and being too harsh when they do, and listen to/post a surprising amount of rap. I mean "crossboarder" is basically just "you ain't actin' /jp/ enough"..

The funniest thing is that general threads have become little sub ghettos of topics people on this board don't even collectively agree should be there. Little /a/, Little /vg/, Little /s/, Little /cgl/.

This board can't even pride itself on being the most autistic. We got dethroned by /trash/, /r9k/,/s4s/,/vp/, etc. It's not the 00's anymore gramps.

>>15536420
Whoa, this is a lot higher quality than I remember it being. Unless I'm thinking of a different one.

>>15536730

Maybe you're right, it started going downhill when they took sage away

That was one of the few things that made /jp/ radically different from the other boards, the frequent and correct use of sage

the non-ironic autism is still there however, that never went away

I miss shitposting around 2011.

An oasis of non-shitposting shitposting in a desert of irony and bait.

>>15536756
Shitposting and original content go hand in hand.

Back then I warned those Anons begging the meido to be more trigger happy that removing shitposting would kill the creativity of this board, but they didn't listen. And now we are here, /jp/ hasn't made anything interesting in years.

>>15534623
Thats a poor excuse for not posting something. If its interesting people will post, you know as well as I do that the board is slow enough for everyone to see it. That guys thread sticking the cheetos or whatever together stuck around a lot longer than i figured it would because it was interesting.

There's shitposting and there's shitposting, /jp/-related threads that look retarded are still different from pages of pointless spam and completely unrelated garbage.

I think a lot of it is not so much that shitposting is a cultural treasure in and of itself, so much as that back then people really weren't afraid to just throw shit out there and see if it sticks. The way you listen to some people talk about making threads today you'd think they were preparing to submit their master's thesis.

It bugs me that when people speak of old times it's always tripfag nostalgia instead of "these threads were quality for xyz reason". Individual posters are not the draw of the site, transient discussions are.

>>15536839
They shouldn't be popular anywhere. Only people who enjoy low quality Metal and low quality J-Pop think they're any good. They're like cheap food items mixed together.

>>15536747
People still use sage a lot though, you can't see them doing it but you can see that threads aren't being bumped even when there are a bunch of new comments.

/jp/ kinda reminds me of my normie friends when they get really drunk and start saying childish cringey stuff. and then you get to know them better and you realize that's actually their real personality and you have to stop being around them bc it starts to get annoying af. anyways, /jp/'s appeal has nothing to do with japanese culture (never played 2hu, don't even watch anime anymore), just fun to see anons spasming out like normies over whatever as the years go buy.

The anti-yukkuri trash comics that remind me of the terminal days of Jissoseki. That everything seems to revolve around shit and piss with them. The inherent yuri-dickgirl nature of them.

I could barely be called as a resident, I could at best be called a newfag. It's been less than a year since I've started regularly visiting here and I only lurk threads. I think of an average /jp/ poster as an autistic dumb cunt, but I still love you guys. Maybe it's because misery loves company, or maybe it's because this is all bullshit and I'm saying this all to make myself feel better. But I genuinely like you guys, and think you're good people.
Feel free to tell me to fuck off though, that's what I'll be doing.

>>15542620
/a/ is a very big and very old board, you think you don't have anything in common with someone who would come from there to visit /jp/ on occasion?

>>15542885
so is /v/, what's your point

>>15542606
/jp/ seems to spread on other boards as well, or they are crossboarders since the beginning.

>>15542908
/jp/ used to be at the forefront of shitposting, and other people would see our spoils and want to become dank memelords on their home boards and stole our icons.

Just look at Momiji and how /pol/ is abusing the fuck out of her.

Weebs from other boards also think this is a 2hu board where you can circlejerk and roleplaying about 2hus freely, even though /jp/ only does it ironically most of the time.

>>15543004
Doing things ironically is role play in and of itself,

>>15543004

Why do you think /jp/ stopped producing notable OCs for quite a long time now?

I come here mostly for the fumo and vocaloid threads, but I will occasional open other threads and look at pictures of cute 2hus. This board has a much more relaxing atmosphere than the other boards I visit.

>>15546757
I think what's so comfy is how slow it is. Other boards feel like SMS, but I can do other things and still browse /jp/.

>>15546747
instant ramen is not authentic food.

There were threads with image dumps and discussions of traditional foods here more regularly once

The tea, candy, and ramen threads actually belong more on /ck/ than a thread about real Japanese food in my opinion

I'm not even interested in Touhou or any other /jp/ things other than general Japanese otaku culture but for some reason I still keep coming here

I just want a general otaku board instead of everything being siloed into narrow categories

"The culture of or related to otaku."

>>15550465
That's not a definition, that's a tautology

>>15536756
/jp/'s shitposting is closer to our brand (which is quite close to 2005 era /b/), while /a/'s is closer to the new age imagereddit shitposting common to the rest of the main imageboards.

What that basically means is that /a/ shitposts by having a deluge of completely worthless shit, but isn't interesting in the slightest, or simple garbage that gets repeated simply because it is annoying. Example: '>implying, image macros, and other shit that would have been funny in middle school. /prog/'s and, to a lesser much extent, /jp/'s, shitposting consist of having a few different shitpost methods with at least some thought put into their creation (for example, the `How are breasts attractive' thread, which is completely off topic and ridiculous, but is well written and somewhat interesting none-the-less). Ideas are formed on a questionable premise, then expanded upon until it reaches it's absurd logical conclusion. It may also take the form of making a huge deal over a minor detail, or assuming things that are false and writing a long critique based upon that, or making provably impossible demands. Contrary to Standard 4chan Shitpost Model (S4SM), where the intent is to annoy, the intent of our shitposting is to entertain, provoke discussion, or simply as an exercise in writing.

Since the fall of Usenet, w4c style shitposting is currently considered some of the best in the world. Even the great usenet trolls have migrated to /prog/ to bask in the glory of our shitposting. The UN is currently trying to classify /prog/ as a world heritage site, but their action may come too late. W4c shitposting is currently an endangered species, due to invasion by the imagereddits, a dwindling population caused by suicide and incarceration, and moderator action. Some have speculated that moot is trying to kill all forms of shitposting that do not conform to Project Canv.as. So far, the best defense available is to derail stupid imagereddit threads with kopipe and JEWS, as well as giving harmful advice to homework threads. It is considered rude to call a w4c style shitpost in conformance with board standards bad.

It is thought by leading scholars that the reason for the Shitposting Schism was the rapid growth of /b/ due to the media exposure of Chanology, when an influx of underage Digg users caused 4chan to explode. Others claim that the shift happened even before that, during the first influx newfags during 2006. This school of thought holds that the first influx gave rise to the loutish behavior of `raiding' and other bullshit, which was a direct cause of the second major wave. Once /b/ was populated almost completely with underage children, the shitposting culture changed to it's modern form, where it is a competition on who can be the most annoying. The cancerous population then colonized nearly every other board on 4chan that could possibly appeal to it's socially well-adjusted population. Mentifex, an expert in the field, built the Artificial Unintellegence ANDRU to model the thought process of the imageredditors. Despite a few setbacks, the project has largely been a major success.

Since world4ch was not linked to on most boards, and since the average imageredditor ignores anything that isn't a reaction image anyway, the area was left mostly unharmed by the change of shitposting. It remained much more subtle, and resembled machine generated spam less than the imageboard brand. Since /jp/ was at one point full of autistic sexually deviants (a natural pairing for /prog/riders) and were far more computer literate than boards such as /g/ or /b/, they were naturally drawn to programming; /prog/ and /lounge/ (which had a shitposting style slightly different than /prog/, until two retarded children took over the board) was an obvious destination. Since it still wasn't enough of a secret club, they moved off site to places like 4-ch for a few days before returning to /jp/ with a more cultured outlook on shitposting.

Metaphorically cramped? Because there are still 2 pages of threads with no posts in them for a day or 2. I guess it's down from like 5 though, in those days when the janitor would delete like 8 pages of posts and it'd be a while before the pages got filled again. .

I like the retro and otaku threads.

>you think you've suppressed your weeb side

This board used to mean something to me, and I guess it still does but not what is used to

I think of the population of /jp/ as a bunch of sad, maladjusted cunts, but in fact some of them are far from being stupid. Some aspects of the old 4chan culture still survive here, which speaks to me as, I guess, a 2007 "oldfag" whose favourite hangout was world4ch. It's interesting to read some threads & consider the perspectives. Overall it's a stale place, though, so I rarely visit and very rarely post.

>>15558012
The sad thing is all those old imageboards are all without exception close to death. Only a few dedicated posters still cling on to the sinking ship

>>15558034
It's remarkable how old going to such places makes me feel, which is so wrong because I'm not even thirty (even if I'm getting there). A nostalgic dream of the noble past.

>>15558034
It's not about clinging to here, it's about who hasn't been able to go to Gensokyo yet.

>>15558090
>A nostalgic dream of the noble past.
This is probably the only reason I still visit textboards at all. I'm just hoping that the good old days will come back. But they never will, will they?

>>15558113
I wonder how many dead /jp/sies line the streets of the Human Village

>>15537091
Tripfags have infested a lot of boards on 4chan that aren't /jp/ though. It's kind of surprising that they're not crawling all over the recurring threads on this board because all the recurring threads on other boards are full of tripfags. Transitioning to 4Chan™ makes it very conducive for people with names to post because they want credit and attention.

>>15558160
Trips aren't inherently bad, it's how they're used.

>>15558160
>>15558166
I have found there are trends between many people that trip. Credit isn't one of them. Most people that trip have personality disorders and need to cultivate supporters to feel good. They're liars and highly predatory people. Promises of erp, sex, exchanging money, gifts, it's all part of their life. They attract cult followings of equally screwed up ugly people in every general.

Why's there so much love on /jp/ right now?

>>15560454
A better question is why are there so many generals

>>15560459
Too many shitty idol groups. If a /3djp/ or /celeb/ or whatever was made, it'd fix that right up.

>>15560454
So "previous" and "general" are from all the general threads? Mods really ruined /jp/ when they let that shit fly.

>>15560388
Who are you quoting?

>>15560459
We have to find a final solution to the general question.

>>15560525
The only solution you're going to get is the janitor finally getting around to blowing up a thread that's been up for a week because it became ban-all-generals thread #3755.

>>15560599
Looks like we also have to find a final solution to the janitor question.

>>15560635
People have been looking for one for 5+ years and not found one that doesn't involve cooking the board down to an unfunny "ironic" shitposting echo chamber.

When you find one you can let us know. Asking for someone to just come up with one is about as likely to succeed as asking someone to give you a million dollars but with a less personally gratifying result.

>>15560671
I was going to suggest going full conspiracy and applying for janitor positions the next round, working your way up as a good one until you have several cohorts and then deleting all generals until you're all booted with no replacements handy, but that would still result in the shitpost chamber.

>>15560599
This is true.
Although /jp/ meant to me, a place without shitty communities with their heads up their asses. I'd be satisfied just if the mods decided JAV go in /s/ or /t/ or /hc/, VNTS had to go to /vg/, and monstergirls moseyed back onto /a/.

>>15560671
If you've ever read the leaked irc logs you'd see how out of touch most of the moderation is. I don't think there really is a solution since it's not like any of the posters really have any power over who chooses the mods or the janitors.

ore no waifu desu

>>15560525
There really isnt one. Considering how popular they are there are many people that love them. I agree with moot that they run counter to the whole transient flow of 4chan and that they almost always suck, but theres not much you can do.

I'd hate to see long running /jp/ threads like yukkuri, scenery, kigging, fumo, and rhythm games get axed too.

>>15560891
two years is not "long-running"

>>15560891
So you're just a sympathizer. It's not like any of those things would be banned.

>>15560934

>>15560949

>>15560949
I don't think posting in qa is going to solve anything. None of the mods even look there

>>15561034
The /jp/ thread in /qa/ actually got a mod to post. It solved nothing, but still.

>>15561034
The mods started deleting things outside of generals after I made a thread about it. Even lowest quality touhou threads have been getting deleted a bit.

>>15560525
>>15560671
>>15560744
>>15560891
There is literally no difference between a general thread and any other thread aside from it having the word "General" in it with links to shit everybody asks for in the OP.

Do you want to ban any thread that has happened more than once? That's kind of /r9k/'s territory there, and look how that shithole turned out.
Do you want to ban links in the OP? Are you trying to get threads to be nothing more than a Q&A session as everybody asks where the most basic shit is?
Did a military General fuck your mother and kick your sandcastle down? Is that why you hate the word so much?

>>15561506
What people want banned are little communities that seperate themselves from the rest of the board and treat the thread as a hangout where they socialize and talk about off-topic shit. Talk exclusively about the thread subject or let it die.

Btw, this topic of generals is a good time to practice that mindset.

>>15561513
Most of the threads are mostly on-topic though, I think the monster girl one is the only one that gets really fucking weird with their pseudo-topical shit.

>>15561520
The idol threads cannot possibly be discussing the idols songs and appearances the entire threads. I said this on /qa/ somewhere, but /tv/'s "off-topic actor/actress discussion" bans should apply to the idol threads too.

>>15561526
And the reasoning is, the very old question: why is https://warosu.org/jp/thread/15558163 wrong, but it's okay if it's Babymetal or some other group with young girls in it?

>>15561541
Pedo spotted, go back to your honeypot chans

>>15561541
Are you really surprised that the mods are scarred of the pedo boogeyman? They even think that loli = pedo like the retards they are

>>15561513
>Talk exclusively about the thread subject or let it die.
This very thread should have taken this advice a while ago. I'm not helping, obviously.

>>15561526
Idols are not on-topic in /jp/ by virtue of their connection to Japanese music, like they would be in /mu/. The idols themselves are the topics, obsessing over them is basically what wota culture is about, and there's like 200 of them.

>>15561554
>Are you really surprised that the mods are scarred of the pedo boogeyman
No? Did you miss the point? I'm asking the question of why do child idols get a pass if it's in a singing group like babymetal? They talk about and say and discuss the same things they would otherwise. Why are pedos allowed for groups like that?

>>15561565
Babymetal is not sexual on its face, even if the threads are full of pedos. Junior idol threads are banned on 4chan since time immemorial since there's a shitton of U-15 gravure and nobody is going to police that shit.

>>15561579
But posting gravure images of underage idol band members isn't banned either.

>>15561607
Yet another instance of inconsistent moderation. I bet it's because one of the janitors frequents the generals where they're posted

>>15561564
>The idols themselves are the topics
Then it belongs on a board for talking about women. You know, like the beautiful women board.

>>15561607
They don't do gravure though, feel free to point them out.

>>15561607
Bright lines are easy to enforce. Careful examination of whether a 14-year-old's sundress is too short for a Christian image board is not, plus I don't think anyone actually cares.

If Sakura Gakuin and AKB paraded their twelve-year-olds around in swimsuits that'd be a different story, but they don't.

>>15576311
I wish I made that life choice, I'm three years stuck in college on my way to becoming a teacher and beginning to wonder if I messed up my whole life. I like teaching, but I am afraid I will regret it after a few years. I don't need to be rich I just want a quiet comfortable life, at least I will get the summer off.

>>15576311
If you work in like I dunno some big city that's the case, but in places that aren't big cities library working is actually pretty nice. I mean, you have to be good with kids if it's a public library. In a lot of towns the public library is something of a community spot, so not only will the librarians have story time (of course), but they might be in charge of other events not really related to librarianship. Some public libraries accept volunteers if you want to work at one but don't have qualifications (in my experience getting an actual shelving job or something is hard because it's always taken).

Honestly, we should petition to not have ANY banners
They're supposed to invite more people to our board, why would we want this?!

/jp/, email to the admin staff that we don't want new banners! No one from /jp/ will even be voting for them, unless we pay!
How is that fair?!

>>15577466

yeah, this is just an elaborate shekel grabbing scheme by Hiroshima so we will by passes just to prevent outsiders from voting for our banners!

What does /jp/ think of this idea?
>>>/qa/594754

>>15577466
It would give you a chance to recruit from 4chan as a whole rather than solely through general threads. Which is something /jp/ sorely needs.

I know it's fun to pretend that we're all the same dumb fucks who have been posting here since 2008, but it's not true. New blood will always come. The most you can do is try and decide what kind, and what to do with them after they're here.

>>15576943
The only way forward for image boards and text boards in general is decline. Glorious Nipponese boards (2ch, futaba, shitaraba etc) are declining pretty sharply as well, it's only right that /jp/ emulate them!

>>15577528
You're not part of the original generation either.

>>15577625
>You're not part of the original generation either
Don't you dare try and lump me together with filth like yourself.

I have been here from the beginning, at least 11 years on 4chan as a whole
I was Anonymous back then, and still am now
If all you miss is the tripfags of the past, then kindly go end yourself

It's obvious now that you are among the "new posters" and only want to bring more of your kind in.

If you want new bodies, then they can discover the board on their own time, read the rules, and lurk before making stupid posts like yours. We don't need to actively "recruit" them

>>15577723
Please recruit me and train me roughly, drag me in the mud under the gain until il all sweaty with the wind blowing in my hair and the light of the moon reflecting on my hungry skeleton body

>If you want new bodies, then they can discover the board on their own time, read the rules, and lurk before making stupid posts like yours. We don't need to actively "recruit" them
They are already being recruited. 100% of them are recruited through general threads. You can either deal with a new generation made entirely of general thread posters, or pick up a mix. What you will never pick up is none at all.

>>15577723
>If you want new bodies, then they can discover the board on their own time, read the rules, and lurk before making stupid posts like yours. We don't need to actively "recruit" them

This is how imageboards should organically work.

If usership becomes forced, not only does actual, relevant discussion disappear, but so does a board's "culture" (as much as I dilike the term, the way it is used) as well.

One is anonymous for a reason, and I think it is so that a subject, as subdivided into boards can be discussed unhindered.

Unfortunately, boards will always develop their unique styles, and, even as I appreciate the laid-backiness of /jp/, this too becomes a hindrance to meaningful, unhindered discussion, as a board assumes a collective identity, through this "board culture".

This, back in the not-so-olden-times of 4chan, could be circumvented by LURKING. For reasons unknown, perhaps a inundation of normals or whatever, has killed the primal habit of lurking, along with it, user-experience that would have ordinarily served to initiate one into a board's particular culture.

While board culture can turn toxic, it is almost always on account of out-of-site influence. The most clear cut historical example might be Chanology, modern /b/ and /r9k/ MK II

I think as long as 4chan still has a sort of dangerous romantic mystic to it, it'll get new users. These users might always diversify their interests, and go to non-porn non-popular boards. As long as a board has a well defined purpose, good moderation might always level it back towards discussion, even if it costs "board culture", ensuring a sort of longevity, a hope for the future

>>15578405
If you want people to lurk, make it so that they're too shy to post, lest they get shat upon for writing something dumb.

>>15578405
>I think as long as 4chan still has a sort of dangerous romantic mystic to it, it'll get new users.

A portion of English speaking people seem to consider 4chan to be Satan incarnate now. I'm not sure how this image spread so far and wide considering 4chan has been fairly calm compared to the early years. I guess everyone else retreated to social media where they only interact with carbon copies of themselves, so when they see the discourse here we're the ultimate evil. Or something.

>>15578497
>lest they get shat upon for writing something dumb.
But when everybody is completely anonymous when they want to be, how is this a penalty? Why should this be feared?

You could rip into my ass calling me all sorts of bullshit right now and it wouldn't matter in the slightest aside from making you look like a frustrated autist. And even THAT holds no long-term problems since you just make another normal post and nobody is the wiser.

Oh, please. All it took to make first time posters angry was to rightfully use sage when posting in their thread.

>right now
Go make a thread about something you like or honestly want to talk about. Watch yourself get shit on and told to gb2>>>/board/ or that no one wants to talk about that thing. Even if you let the thread die, you'll be butthurt as fuck.

You seem like you have that neo-4chan "4chan is a place to shitpost without anyone ever knowing you're a dog" way of thinking.

Oh yeah I guess if you're making retarded new threads, that would backfire. As a random reply though there's functionally no difference unless you're trying to actually get answers out of someone.

See? Just like that. We could go back and forth calling eachother newfags and trying to prove oldfag cred at eachother but at the end of the day it means fuck all.

And please don't remind me of visible sage, it still hurts to this day that its gone because of literal /a/ and /v/ tears.

Be this the whetstone of your sword. Let grief convert to anger. Blunt not the heart, enrage it.

>>15578405

The thing is, I think the imageboard concept could've been easily evolved with open source code for the website and stuff like machine learning could make automation of moderation possible and board quality a lot better.

The problem is the website's attitude towards its own rules where bans mean nothing and people skirt the rules all the time.

>>15579028
>stuff like machine learning could make automation of moderation possible
Explain in more detail and I'll tell you how /b/ would ruin it for everyone.

>>15579235

It would be just doing it with text. Of course, you could probably do it for images too, but meh.

Thing is, you would pretty much need to be posting like Wikipedia spamming or something along those lines to have it not work from the beginning.

>>15576943
You shouldn't get depressed by these threads. Lamenting for the past is part of the human condition. /jp/ is still great, anon, and I think we all know that still.

>>15577466
As I said in a previous thread (or was it this one?) if we don't make a banner for /jp/ someone else will, and it will be /v/ or /a/ stuff that will attract the wrong crowd.
/jp/ needs to create a plain, uninteresting banner, but still one that will get votes.

>>15577502
There's no substitute for willpower. There is software that can temporarily ban you from websites on a timer or schedule, so I would recommend that instead.

Let's get rid of the generals then!

/op/ - Otaku General Posting
It'll be like a /vg/ for /jp/, we can just cart off all the idol and monstergirl generals off into another board far away, and then recruit for that one

We call it /op/ because it will be a board for faggots

>>15580832

There is no need of new boards just move monstergirl threads to /d/ or /trash/, Idol threads to /mu/ or /rash/, JAV threads to /hc/, /s/ or /t/, Nutaku, Rhythm games, etc to /vg/, Kigurumi threads to /cgl/ fumo and doll threads to /toy/.

>>15581065
Yeah, what's the deal? A lot of those generals already have similar generals on other boards, like k-pop generals on /mu/.

Monstergirl threads are the worst though. They're basically furries.

Like really

what's wrong with generals here?, I don't mind them

Without a lot of them this board would either be super dead, nothing but content-less posts, or all about lick X touhou threads (which don't get me wrong, these things should stay here too)

A lot of these generals are super constructive, think like the OC generals, or generals where people actively go out and find new content to share with people, an most to all the other ones are just, well, reoccurring threads

I like my /jp/ how it is, with all the particular threads that appear here, the only thing that bothers me is the occasional really shitty /a/ or /v/ person(s) that comes over here and makes an obviously bad posts or threads, which doesn't happen horribly too often, and isn't really something that can be helped.

>>15582872

What's with general fags and "content" this and "content" that? Take your ERP, forever alone greentext stories, and furry porn "content" elsewhere.

>this board would either be super dead
Good. Go be fast on /a/v/b/. I like this board with its easy pace.

>A lot of these generals are super constructive
No they aren't.

>think like the OC generals
Don't call them that, and most other touhou/whatever draw threads are more productive than the OC thread.

>generals where people actively go out and find new content to share with people
No, they go find stuff they already like to share with their friends. People who go find new content to share with people make new threads to show the content to everyone instead of posting it in their little clubhouse.

The only worthwhile general is the untranslated VN one because there aren't enough people to discuss them. All the other threads are just containments.

>>15582916
Well thanks for being upfront and honest with why nobody should ever listen to you.
