Here you go

otaku culture is not a task or a goal

it is a state of being, a recognition of the transience of life

our 2hu threads are our sutras, except with more masturbation and shitposting

the recent action of certain unnameable boards stealing our memes for political purposes has violated the holy sanctity of otaku culture which must not go unpunished

>>15749082
At least on some of the Touhou forums there are stats given for the date joined, the amount of posts, etc. etc. which can help people determine how new a person is.

Here we can only go by the word of mouth and the occasional timestamp.

>>15749091
>the recent action of certain unnameable boards stealing our memes for political purposes has violated the holy sanctity of otaku culture which must not go unpunished

With what power? /jp/ has assigned itself to obscurity and irrelevancy much like that of delusional /a/, who has zero modern cultural impact, exlcuding when they pathetically whisper in the ear of the administration like a Grima Wormtongue-esk character.

Nothing stands in the way of the cultural super-pact boards (/pol/, /int/, /v/, /tv/) and their associated ally boards.

Someone needs to trick Trump into retweeting Stars of David and so forth

Cuteposting RP in shallow character threads is a problem, but it pales in comparison to other issues facing the board. Something like 90% (if not more) of /jp/'s "activity" is inside those dreadful generals and more of them are created each month. I'd take 40 "Look at Chen!" threads over one general, but instead the numbers are reversed. The /jp/ community itself also needs to be harsher on crossboarders as I feel alone in some threads.

I really wish you guys didn't talk like this, but I'll give you the benefit of a doubt and dismiss it as the innocent foibles of assimilation. I of course hate the degradation of innocent media as it becomes a tool for shitposting or even worse, political shitposting, but again the priorities here are wrong. There are few things more poisonous to internet discussion as a whole as the misguided importance placed upon these fads. /jp/'s value has never and will never be in its "memes" as you call them. It is the community.

Hay /jp/, what's your favorite Meshuggah song?

I feel it's rare when someone clearly out of place isn't called out and sometimes the posts are even deleted, though I don't go to any general so maybe it's different there.

Sorry. I should have known better. It's just that recent political developments have directed a lot more attention to 4chan, and my temper got the better of me.

I am not terribly optimistic about /jp/'s future. As 4chan continues to grow in popularity the board will become faster - our unique community, to a large extent, relies on a slower pace that permits an anon to sit down, mull over her words and spend a lunch break or train ride home thinking about additional things that could be contributed to the thread. You don't have that luxury in non-generals when threads prune after a few hours.

That will probably be a ways away though...it's more likely that deaths, changing interests and life circumstances will change the community more in the short term, as people who have posted here for years are slowly replaced by others who are more accustomed to a board culture they might import from one of the larger boards.

beato

>>15750047
Remember to take it easy, friend. I share your disdain for outsider forces (and the outside world itself) but it's important not to let it get to you.
You should be using multiple imageboard or textboards right now if you aren't already. /jp/'s future is murky, sure, but that's true of most things. This place has been declared dead dozens of times, but some form of it remains and there's still good things here.

They targeted otakus.
Otakus.
We're a group of people who will sit for hours, days, even weeks on end making some of the hardest, most mentally demanding shitposts. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital (You) saying we did.
We'll punish our selfs doing things others would consider torture, because we think it's fun.
We'll spend most if not all of our free time masturbating to a fictional character all to draw out a single extra drop of semen.
Many of us have made careers out of doing just these things: slogging through the grind, all day, the same quests over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know evety little detail such that some have attained such otaku nirvana that they can literally browse /jp/ blindfolded.
Do these people have any idea how many screens have been smashed, keyboards over heated, hard drives and mice destroyed 8n frustration? All to latter be referred to as bragging rights?
These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our website? We're already building a new one without them. They take our 2hus? Otakus aren't shy about throwing their money else where, or even making the 2hus our selves. They think calling us racist, mysoginistic, rape apologists is going to change us? We've been called worse things by prepubescent 10 year olds with a shitty >misquote. They picked a fight against a group that's already grown desensitized to their strategies and methods. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they've threatened us with. Who take it as a challange when they tell us we no longer matter. Our obsession with proving we can after being told we can't is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with big brothers/sisters and friends laughing at how pathetic we used to be that proving you people wrong has become a very real need; a honed reflex.
Otakus are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You're not special, you're not original, you're not the first; this is just another shitpost.

I'm not sure if it's worth trying to prolong the life of the culture, or if it's even possible to do so.

/jp/ board culture is/was very much a product of the times and situation that created it and I don't think those conditions can really be recreated.

I used to enjoy silly Touhou threads on /jp/ but actual fun people on /jp/ either have gone or rather silent so most 2hu threads you can find are unironic cuteposting and waifu thread.

In case you don't know /jp/ is never a serious board or having serious discussion as its main appeal, though whether /jp/ merely being containment for idol general and cuteposting is good or not, if /jp/ is fine with it there's nothing you can do about it, right?

I used to be against japanese culture thread but ironically now it's the only place I find comfy these days.

/jp/ is a board where sensical, rational discussion of touhou games and lore should occur.
Otherwise /jp/ just turns into a safe-for-work /e/.

lol take a chill pill

I used to be like you, angry at the people not discussing canon and lore.

But then after years of talking about the same materials, boring theories and ZUN only relaying so much info on lore, I've grown tired of that. On many occasions, Touhou discussions or arguments just boil down to contests to see who can call each other a secondary fast enough.

I find much more relaxation and solace in those silly little threads, comics and what have you. Somehow I think these people, or "secondaries", have more fun and enjoyment with Touhou than the "primaries".

/jp/ isn't going to get fast. If anything, it's getting slower with time.

A severe activity decline occurred during 2013-2014 and from then on it hasn't recovered, the staff simply brought here huge generals (Kancolle and monster girls) that have an insane posting rates, but the rest of the board (ever shrinking, compared with the amount of fucking generals) is slower than it's been for most of the board's history.

But seriously, there are too many generals. Idols were allowed at the beginning because they were few and self-contained, but how many are today? Not to mention those smartphone games, which I can't understand how they are "otaku culture", when the only games allowed on /jp/ have always been arcade, doujin and some MMORPG.

Though the saddest part is that it seems there is little to replace them with... I wonder where everyone from past years went. They sure aren't in the spin-offs. I'd love to have warm discussions with them again...

The trendline looks like we're staying steady at post 2011 levels and have recovered from the horrid 2013-2014 years of darkness.

I guess it's good to know that we can maintain a speed that will allow us to take it easy - I just worry about who is replacing us. The people that joined in the early years are probably in gensokyo or in the workforce by now.

A lot of the newfags that are replacing us have the opinions of neurotypicals. There's the tendency to collect in generals as you've mentioned. I've also noticed that a lot of the newfags don't care about anti-censorship and pro-privacy values - they think it's okay to censor things that they don't like and that the government should control the press to fight leftism or degeneracy or whatever.

Maybe I worry too much though, but it's still very unnerving and frustrating when newfags call me a cuck degenerate because I think people shouldn't be imprisoned for masturbating to cartoons and that people shouldn't be murdered, censored or sued into oblivion because of their opinions.

>>15750047
I don't know where you've been, but 4chan's popularity has been declining for years. What we need to worry about is our little community outright ceasing to exists.

Oh no, it's hit mainstream for a while now.
Every little Timmy and his brother visits 4chan for the hottest memes. The thing is that they tend to restrict themselves to the biggest boards (/b/, /v/, I'd wager /co/ too.)
But with the relatively new crossboard banners, they're going to start diffusing amongst the rest of the site. Take that for what you will.

If the people telling you you should be in jail for masturbating to pretty pictures and pushing for government censorship are also the ones calling you a cuck, then these people are goddamn retarded because a cuck is precisely the type of person who pushes for those things in the first place.

I don't want to delve the thread into politics however, but as long as you are yourself from back then, then the spirit of /jp/ back then also lives on through you. Just take it easy.

The thing is fun /jp/ threads and waifu threads are different things, at least to me.
There is lack of the former and too much of the latter, some might agree that /jp/ has gotten stale.
