Why isn't this being enforced on every board outside of /vg/? Generals are cancer.
>>1552514
every other board is containment
From what I hear it's not entirely clear if it's being enforced in /a/ as is.
>>1552542
most threads on /a/ are template threads, so you can't just say "dude let's delete all the template threads lmao"
Are there any /qa/ couples?
What do you mean?
>>1552501
/qa/ posters who are dating
Punky Brewster and Barneyfag.

How to prevent "broken window" mentality on imageboards?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broken_windows_theory
It all starts with you own window.
Seems like proper, thorough moderation is the only answer to that.
>>1552474
That's always the answer. Some people will not control themselves, so they need to be kicked out for everyone else to have a nice time.
Is there a subconscious unity among the various activist cancer on this website?
From what I see, the /pol/ "we have to win the 4chan culture war!" crowd all have a similar goal in mind, weather or not there's any unity in their ideals it seems to be a common thread.
Namely, go from board to board and try to make it as unusable for discussion or any form of mature exchanges as possible. After this is done then the board is ripe for integration with lots of low quallity community members who just want to off topic blog about how much they love or hate right wing politics.
In essence, these groups of people all have the central desire to teraform boards to the point where everything revolves around /pol/.
Some examples of this might be /tv/, /v/ or /sci/. On these boards, several obsessed anons always make political threads or other low quallity threads the regulars hate. They do this so much that the regular members give up complaining and either accept the cancer or leave.
On /sci/ the members now accept dumb general threads, IQ threads and they're regularly accepted.
On /v/ political threads are spammed as nausium until at least one of them gets off the ground.
/tv/ is a mess in of itself and can't stop talking about politics.
All in all, there seems to be a unified force driving the political teenbros and one can see similar strategies being applied all across 4chan.
Presently I believe one such group of obsessed anons are going after >>>/adv/ employing the same strategies. Can anything be done? Who knows...
>create account system for 4chan
>account required to post on this site
>account creation requires an email, etc.
>anonymousy still maintained
>captcha still maintained
>ip bans still maintained
>no publicly accessible posting history is saved
>reduce shitposting by 20% - 50%
why is this so hard for the staff here to do? this will cut down shitposting further by providing another barrier for them to get past, normal posters will be completely unaffected by this.
>>1552348
People meme but if you want accounts just go to Reddit. Seriously. Shitposting is reduced by taking away internet points. Besides the userbase the real downside is the weird tree view and it encourages groupthink.
4chan is for anonymous posting, not a site where you register to post anonymously.
>mfw when /qa/ replies to my threads no matter how shitty they are
Where are the replies.......?
>>1552308
You're a bright light in the night
>mfw all you need to get replies on this board is a generic anime picture
why is the weeb mafia so easy to trick?

tfw i will never get to play this game for the first time again
a literal RAPIST
I feel lonlely
I do not know you, and thus I cannot judge if I like you or not.
Most of us are quite lonely, that's why we come here
>>1552223
wow I really didn't expect such a reasonable answer
Why do you assume everyone knows you
/qa/ I feel like I've lost it, Have you guys ever had those weird times that you just get really philosophical? I'm assuming you have and I'm not crazy. Anyways I was grinding in a game with some classical music on, and I just feel into this almost high. Just thinking about shit like the prejudice against "normies" (I say that because of a lack of a better word) or how fucked up and incomplete our morality and logic work together. So I guess idk where I'm going with this thread, but I guess just discuss shit like that I don't have a lot of friends who I can do this with so It'd be awesome if some anons wanted to talk.
Need a gf...........

T's really gone and lost the plot today. I guess the loneliness finally got to him

Why do they keep putting ugly bitches in the ads? I do not want to have a vomit reflex every time I load a bloody thread.
if only there was a way for U to BLOCK these ads

What happened to old school troll culture? Everyone seems so sincere these days. Is it because web 1.0 forums have gone the way of the dodo to be replaced by social media?
>>1552213
>Everyone seems so sincere these days.
Don't I wish. Most people are all about that so-cool irony these days.
Troll culture is dead because you can just say "I disagree with your politics" and communities explode by themselves. There's no need for any master plans or elaborate ruses.
Irony is for faggots too scared to become invested in anything lest someone criticizes them for liking that thing
>/vip/ was created almost one year ago
Huh. It feels older than that to me for some reason. Who said that, anyway? Was it the guy in the pic?
>>1552187
You are not funny, nor original.
>>1552188
I don't think he was trying to be funny, nor original.
This is the only good board cause only oldfags remember it
>>1552172
This and /f/, for the same reason.
It gets linked on boards like /pol/ and /bant/ pretty much daily. It's just that it takes a certain type of person to stay.
You need to be able to persevere through the various raids and attempts to disrupt the community, and I admit at times I question why I've put up with it for so long. I mean, just think of the people that come here asking for mods when they see a bad thread on their board survive for an hour or 10 "spam" threads made in a day.
We shouldn't have to deal with the psychos that stalk this place so obsessively, but we do and I guess it filters out most people and that's what keeps /qa/ small and cozy. Plus, we can self-moderate and I admit I've learned how to do various things in order to protect /qa/ from such elements. Mods help out occasionally too, of course, but not enough to be noteworthy.
>>1552194
>I admit I've learned how to do various things in order to protect /qa/ from such elements
Being vague just makes you look like you know you're wrong. Spamming isn't self-moderation, its self-destruction, and if you think it makes this board better or comfier you're mentally ill.
"psychos" could mean a lot of things, but taking it as it should be you're probably just as bad as them, hate breeds hate nigga.
>it takes a certain type of person to stay
Yeah, it takes a retard to stay. All the oldfags have left early 2016 and only come here for the happenings threads. And yes, i'm a retard, so are you, and so is OP.
Hi, /ck/ here.
Can someone point out which part of my post triggers the spam filter?
I don't want to keep attempting to reword it because nothing looks particularly egregious and I know the mods do sneaky shit like 3-day autoban you after receiving more than 5 spam rejections in a row.
it's the mods blocking you from redpilling the cooking board, dude
let's get on twitter and redpill those sheeple
stay woke
stay strong
stay based
>>1552170
Put it in a pastebin.
>>1552173
I know you're being belittling but that's not even redpill-tier. He's just pointing out that certain things can feminize men. Pointing out that beer has estrogen and such also causes butthurt.
