/pol/ crackdown needs to happen both on and off the board. It's cancerous as fuck.

Get rid of the second sticky.

>>31334863
>>31334689
On the flip side, we need to stop removing threads about gun related laws and politics, as well as gun related news. I'd rather not have to go slum in /pol/ for /k/ related subjects.

Also, board ID needs to go up on all boards.

>>31334863
>>31335206
I roll my eyes at how obsessed /k/ is with niggers and Jews, but no matter how much /pol/ retardity you ban that isn't going to stop stormfags. I'm more interested in why shit like >>31310611 is allowed. It's not weapons, it's rarely military ordnance, vehicles or strategies and is generally filled to the brim with /pol/tards complaining about Shillary or Yurop mudslimes.

Either way, like I said before: banning this crap doesn't do anything anyway.

/k/ has had memes since before you had finished sucking on your mother's teat. If you want to turn this board into /arg/ then I suggest you crush your dick in a press and leave for arfcom and never return.

>assumptions: the post

Or, at the very least, let's get some new ones dammit. FAMAS and the stupid napalm shotgun posts have been done to death.

Ban caliber wars, ak vs ar, 9mm vs .45 and any other shitflinging threads.

They're on par with consolewar shitposting. Shame the mods on /k/ are noguns as fuck and most likely European so you can't blame them for not knowing the nuances of a weapon board

>>31334689

Solution: Add flags and IDs to /k/.

Jews or niggers detected. You guys are literally bluepilled as fuck. If you were given a chance to write the constitution 1789, you'd probably wouldn't even have the intelligence or foresight to put in the 2nd amendment.

/k/ is just ignorant sheep with guns.

Why ban these threads, they do what they are intended to do. Keep those fags out of other threads and give them a place to say what they want.
Do you know why we have a pony board, it was because all those fuckers shit up the other boards so much that they had to be contained.
No one is forcing you into those threads so why do you care?
>>31335206

I agree with you guys about letting gun related politics and laws be allowed on this board, most people on /pol/ are gun illiterate and just think that everything is pro gun no matter how insane if it is from republicans.

Cant fault you there. /k/ is infamous for having some of the most stale memes on any chan anywhere. Zergface, Famas, Ivanposting, all at least 5 years old and its arguable if they were ever funny to start with.
>Animeposting. Make a ruling. I really don't care, but make one so we can stop the dumb fucking arguments.
Whats wrong with /ak/? They keep in in their general as far as Ive seen.
>Shills: Ban Russian and Chinese IPs. [spoiler]Maybe Israeli too, for that matter.[/spoiler] Maybe just for a month. If the retarded national posturing threads stop or slow, we know what's causing it.

Mandatory 1 year stay on /pol before you are allowed to post on /k/.

>>31334689
>Shills: Ban Russian and Chinese IPs. [spoiler]Maybe Israeli too, for that matter.[/spoiler] Maybe just for a month.
No, I enjoy hearing what shills and propagandists have to say. It's very /k/ relevant content usually.

If you can handle /pol/, you can handle any board. /k/ is so bluepilled, it is necessary to go to /pol/ for reeducation before any good discussion can happen.

/k/ is literally worse than arfcom and m4carbine tier in terms of weapons discussion. Sad!

Well let's ban OP for being a fucking retard for starters. Then let's get rid of that sticky and let people discuss gun laws here.

Ban tripping.

/k/ommandos will identify someone from their content if they need to, and if they don't then they need to judge the quality of the information for themselves.

At the very least ban tripping with a name, it serves no purpose other than to create e-personalities.

Also purge daily circle jerk generals, especially ones that aren't even related to weapons like the LARPing thread that is the 'gear queer' general. They're all cancerous cesspits.

>>31335986
>Zergface
It was funny when people actually posted original content on 4chan. The reason memes became hated was 1) because reddshit and facebook caught on to them and hijacked them 2) because the quality of posting on 4chan continually degrades and people just repost.

In a Syria tread on /k/ I'm going to talk about guerrilla war, tactics, and load out I'm not going to bitch about Clinton funding the destabilization and how (((they))) don't want the war won they just want it fought because /pol/ stays on /pol/ and /k/ stays on /k/

The problem with that is that mods come and go, so unless things are codified, some mods may be against something that was accepted via gentleman's agreement.

Really, each of the boards here need a good reworking of the rules, even if it's just to fit the current trends and bullshit.

>>31334689

Terrible ideas throughout the thread. They second sticky can go and be combined with the first.

Those that suggest IDs and flags need to fuck off /k/, because clearly they don't believe in the Constitution or second amendment since they can't understand that they share the exact same arguments as the gun grabbers.

4chan has always been, by default, user-to-user anonymity. Taking that away is massive mistake and punishes everyone for the behaviour of the extreme few. If you cannot detect samefagging, false flag baiting and shillery without IDs and flags, you need to lurk moar.

Really, nothing much on /k/ needs to actually change beyond individual posters improving themselves in knowledge, experience and skill.

>>31334689
Containment threads (milsurp/AR/GQ) are all /soc/ tier faggotry, same pictures same people saying the same things day after day after day, oh thread hit post limit? better start a new one with the same fucking picture I've posted every day for the past year. Should they be deleted? Maybe, but I'd honestly rather those people have that place to shitpost without spreading their airsoft tier oper8or logic everywhere else.

>>31338713

Ban Generals, they are the worst kind of cancer.

Get rid of the second sticky and put the message into the first one. 2 stickies is 1 too many.

Otherwise OP I'm pretty much agreed with you.

Is there any way to pin all of the generals to the bottom of the board? I can't filter out the word "general" without hiding threads about worthwhile things like "General Mattis" or "in general...".

>>31338932
Then filter the fucking title of the generals.

/arg/
/brg/
/ak/
etc.

Ya'll need to quit moaning about generals. They're a good thing.

Go into any /arg/ thread. Look around, then come back and tell me you'd rather have /that/ shit scattered all over every thread on the board.

Or just hided the /pol/ shit you don't like and let firearm politics continue through. It's retardedly simple to just not feed the faggot and ignore them. The more you feed them, the more they'll shit up the thread.

>Memespam: I'm tired of Famasposting. Send those tards to /b/
Memes aren't going anywhere bud, whether you like them or not. As a matter of fact, go to a more serious board, as /k/ is literally the worst place to talk about firearms and firearms projects without people memeing their amateur mudtests over the US Military's mud test.

>Animeposting. Make a ruling. I really don't care, but make one so we can stop the dumb fucking arguments.
>[Insert wheredoyouthinkyouare.jpg here]
Certain anime series can be just as /k/, especially the mangas. Motafumi Kobayashi is as /k/ as it can get, along with series like Golden Kamui, The Arms Peddler, and animes like Future War 198X, Area 88 and The Silent Service. The rules are clear: Doesn't matter how butthurt or triggered you get from chinese cartoons, if the context in the series is /k/, it is /k/. Reaction images are reaction images, no need to get autistically assmad overe them. As the board rule of /k/:
>All weaponry is welcome. Military vehicles/knives/other weapons are included, this board isn't just for firearms!
>http://www.4chan.org/rules
The rule doesn't specify anything against or for anime. As a matter of fact, the general rule of /k/ is as long as it involves weapons (Whether its melee swords, fictional, firearms, military, etc) it is /k/ related. Not to mention the mods already declared that weapons anime is allowed, no matter how stupid it is as long as it doesn't violate the global rules. This further enforces the argument that ALL weaponry is welcomed. There's nothing specific about it, absolutely nothing at all saying it has to be real or has to make sense
cont.

>>31338709
Mods don't come and go, janitors do. They're volunteers, when they're on the rules get enforced, when they're not the rules don't. That's how it has always been.

>>31338842
Everything but the milsurp clothes thread is OK since they have actual gun owners who actually use their gear and guns.

Reminder that meta threads are not only necessary but beneficial.

It is healthy for a community to discuss itself and where it is going. This helps keep community members accountable to one another and to point out problem areas and solutions for improvement. The only reason anyone would be opposed to such a beneficial thread is if they know they are actively degenerating the community they claim to belong to and are afraid of the consequences. If you are a good, contributing user on /k/ you have nothing to worry about.

>pic related, what regular meta threads could have prevented

The meme stores need to be banned. The influence they have on /k/ is not good. They are the reason /k/ has gone to shit over the last year since they encourage newfaggotry and actively engage in JIDF tier thread sliding whenever legitimate criticism is brought up. Reminder that while corrupt moot was in charge they controlled the mod team.

>>31339444

>militaria

Spotted the surplusshit. Your subliminal shilling is disgusting. /k/ is weapons and weapons alone. "Weapons" is directly related to usage; "militaria" is nothing but setting useless, non-weapons objects on a shelf and therefore NOT WEAPONS.

>>31339522
You're assuming an awful lot about me when this will be my third post in this thread and I'm not sure why unless you just want to pick a fight with an anonymous stranger over the internet for very little reason.

Basically, you're most of what is wrong with /k/.

>>31339535
/k/ losing its ability to tell obvious cancer to fuck off is why it is shit right now. We wouldn't have any of these problems today if we made the place so inhospitable to obvious cancer that they would fuck off. By being nice and coddling what is destroying us, we made them think they and their behavior are welcome so they never leave and the tumor just grows larger.

I've been here about 8 years. This is the second time I have ever posted.

I would like to see flags and userID's. I like the threads about aviation and naval warfare and they seem to get ruined a lot by intentional trolls.

I think /k/ can be pretty dumb like all of 4chan but the genuine discussions and community here is sometimes heartfelt. That's why I stay.

Don't really like /pol/, it seems like it is intentionally crude and ugly. /x/ is fun when it comes to /k/. So is /out/, /diy/, and of course /an/.

These are just my opinions of course.

This. The surplusshit general is the only general where none of the posters actually own their own guns. It is an infestation of (man) children from shit states and europoor countries who prioritize moldy, useless clothing over guns, their freedom, and even simply their own lives. It is literally the bastion of degeneracy on /k/, and what is holding /k/ back from reaching its full potential. I guarantee that once they are gone the rest of the cancer will leave with them.

Trips need disabled.
IDs maybe, I don't like them but they'd probably help the board.
Generals (I'm most familiar with /arg/) can be good places to condense a topic and not have 6 threads about the same thing.
/pol/ needs to stay on /pol/, but I understand that won't happen as long as the two boards coexist.
Discussion of Weapon related current events and laws should be allowed.

Ban /S/akura.

That is all.

No shit dicklock, but the last thing this fucking place needs is MORE regulation. More regulation will just lead to this place being another fucking circlejerk forum. So what, the tripfags are pieces of shit? Yeah, and the generals are autistic, but saying you want post quality controlled is great until you say something that they disagree with.

Yeah, its a privately run imageboard and they have the right to do whatever in the fuck they want with it, but that doesn't mean we should be shoving rules and regulations up people's asses.

Oh, and you wanna kill shitposts and fag generals? Well there's a little fucking feature called FILTERING which allows you to not see those generals. As for shitposts, well there;s a nifty little feature inside of your own fucking brain called IGNORING SHITPOSTS which I highly recommend you either reinstall or activate.

Why are you so worked up? You need to chill the fuck out.

I've been in and out of 4chan since.. 2004? 2005? Whenever it was that they made that furry board and then everyone who posted on it fot banned. Great times.

In any case, /k/ is doing fine. I'd update and condense the sticky post into one thread with 1 or 2 posts, but that's it.

Animu and memes are going nowhere. Where do you think you are? Shills and generals can be ignored.

As for politics, the threads on topics such as military strategy, equipment and such belong on /k/. Legistlation and politics that affect weapons ownership and use belong on /k/. Everything else has its own dedicated board and should stay there.

No to flags or ips or whatever. This is an anonymous board. I don't feel strongly either way to banning tripfaggotry, but it's been an unpopular rule when it's been applied in the past. Then again, so was captcha and we deal

>>31339418
But in the end, the mods make the final decision regarding enforcement.

And besides, the amount of newfags and redditors here (while not as bad as other boards) still contributes the idea that Mongolian finger paintings are not allowed anywhere except those denoted, when clearly the rules state otherwise.

It's all the "Hurr durr, wut rules?" people who grind my gears, honestly.

I don't doubt it but that shit back then was the first time anons did stuff IRL and it was supremely cancerous. Before that people closed pools are DDOS'd feminists, not put on masks and get seen my mass media. After that 4chan was pretty much just endless summer until about 2013 when it reached saturation point and morphed into 4chan 2.0 aka reddit mk2, and it's continued to get shittier ever since with things like what you described.

It's not like all newfags are bad, just the ones that don't conform to the established culture and don't bother to lurk. They changed the makeup of the website with boards like /r9k/ and /soc/.

>Really, nothing much on /k/ needs to actually change beyond individual posters improving themselves in knowledge, experience and skill.

>Advocating for hard work and taking responsibility for your own actions

You just purged half the board in one fell swoop. Good.
