The staff made a poll. 4chan pass users can vote here: >h

I'm confused, what is being asked?

I assume it's asking about (You)'s, but it says "restyled". I thought they just outright removed them, not replaced them with something else?

>>923859

Heaven forbid, wanting to have an engaging conversation, perish the thought.

You realise that it's way easier now to just camp on your post and see the backlink replies fill up as meaningless numbers, right? That removing (You) only removes the useful aspect of the function in being able to easily engage in and maintain quality discussions throughout long/slow/multiple threads?

If you only ever saw (You)s as upboats, you're the faggot here.

>>924366
Actually, a decision was already made, one that /qa/ is trying to reverse. Hiro might have as well made a thread just for /vip/, but he started one here, about an unrelated thing (How was your year?).

One could think Hiro is a mastermind, that his plan all along was for his thread to be derailed so he could use a newly debuted feature (4chan polls) to coax people into buying more passes (perhaps a dozen or two, which is more than enough to influence a poll given its low number of participants), but I think that's a bit of a stretch.

>>924442
Of course. And now shitposters decide what happens to the site.

Hiroshimoot is probably ok with this, because anything is fine to artificially increase use of the site. This is what many social networking sites do: they come up with ways to keep the user on the site, and quantity not quality counts. Making users write inflammatory posts so that as many users as possible reply to it increases the post rate. And more posts mean more ads. Flamewars are now thought of as money faucets.

One of my connections is blocked because I'm guessing Barneyfag abused the shit out of it until it was range blocked.

(You)

>>924553

This, right here, is why (you) was removed.
There are people so desperate for attention that they'll run out and buy a pass just so shitpost in /qa/.

Besides voting in a poll that will probably be ignored and posting on a dead board, what does it give them? Almost nothing except the right to shitpost in /qa/ about 'poorfags' (IE: People didn't pay for the bag of shit that I did so I'm going to lash out at them)

>>924638

Why do we need to remove it? Aint broke, don't fucking fix it.
The most functional aspect of (You)s was searchability, making it easy to find a reply to you in larger threads (such as QTDDTOT) or easily follow discussions in fast threads, follow long-term discussions in very slow threads, etc. You CAN do these things without searchable (You)s, but there's no need to.

Without being searchable, visible reply tracking IS just a superficial wank, because now it serves virtually no actual function. The way it is now, it might as well be removed entirely, there'd be very little difference.

Eat shit ahahahahaha

>>925299
I'm pro (You) but hiro is still a faggot

The problem with (You) is that it was being used as an upvote. Much like when sage was being used as a downvote.

This isn't reddit nor should it be.

>>925291
Which purpose? There was none. Replies are still linked.

>>925309
wat. the amount of replies a post gets is still visible and attracts attention just like an upvoted post would. all the (you) did was make replies to your own posts stand out

>>925334
True, but (You) brought along shitposting like "hehe thanks for all the (You)s xDD". Just like reddit with "omg rip my inbox thx for upvotes :D we did it reddit".

>>925309
>This isn't reddit nor should it be.
why?

I wonder why they would value the opinions of people who actively support the site over the opinions of leeches who block ads and never contribute?

Really activates my almonds...

>>925342
You have to go back.

>>925342
It's redundant. Why make an exact copy of something when the original already exists

>>925342
Because we lose what was better. Much better.

At first I was very unhappy with the change because removing the You while still having OP seemed stupid.

Stockholm Syndrom, ladies and gentlemen, because now I like the change. Because of the removal of You, users were now able to make a replacement for it with simple css, that looks nice. I now have (Desu) behind each post and styled it up a bit.

I didn't think that the poll is mostly negative, because I thought many people that first where unhappy would like it after some time.

>>925309
It's a marker for quick tracking of replies. The "give me (you)s" merely a meme to mock upvotes. Mechanically nothing has changed and people will still fish for dots.

>>925413
You sound like you are just casually using this site, like a chatroom. That's not what it is. Fuck off

>>925432
Remember when Hiro told people to make meta stickies about moderation and then proceeded to do nothing? Good times.

Those meta stickes would be nice if the moderation staff were allowed to discuss the ideas put forth in them, but nope, gotta have that retarded vow of silence.

>>925432
>I can't wait for Hiro to completely ignore the results anyway because he's an incompetent kike.
Like any admin he should.

>>925340

People always have and always will troll for attention. The fact that some have adopted mocking reddit as a means of revealing "lol i troll u" does not mean the behaviour has changed at all.

>>925472
>Says anti-shitposter clinging on to fading glimmer of hope

>>925432
(You)s are damn useful, I bought a ((Pass)) so I could post more often without captchas, I can't possibly track every single post in every single thread I make. And when I come back to a thread after an hour or two? what then? Do I actually need to remember the posts I've made off the top of my head?

>inb4 ''use an extension!''

Great idea, having to use an extension to make 4chan usable because a couple of users have a hard-on for the removal of useful features.

>>925495
>((Pass))
Two parentheses is used for OOC (out of character) in roleplaying situations. I think you misunderstood something here.

>>925500
three parentheses, two parentheses, I don't keep myself up-to-date on all /pol/ memes. I just posted that to shield myself from ''you're supporting a jew!'' allegations because I purchased a pass.

I don't agree with voting being only limited to /vip/per.
Oh well

>>924788
as it should be

>>925505
I think we ought to limit vote functionality further. Only allow those who've supported the website from the onset of passes becoming available to vote.

>>925463
>Remember when Hiro told people to make meta stickies about moderation and then proceeded to do nothing? Good times.
I especially remember when Hiro told us to make meta stickies about moderation and then the mods were deleting the threads for days before Hiro told them to stop.
Like holy shit I'm convinced he doesn't even talk to the mod staff beyond delegating every single responsibility to them. He just expects them to manage the site for him, and doesn't even tell them to enforce what he tells us in threads.
>>925472
There's literally no reason for him to make this poll if he's just going to ignore the results because they came out against him.
>>925495
>He actually bought a good goy pass
I say this with complete sincerity. If Gook Moot wasn't such a complete greedy incompetent piece of shit I would have happily bought a pass to support 4chan.
I've been posting here almost daily for fucking years now, easily my favorite site online. And it pains me to see him slowly destroying this site, and beg for donations as a reward for him fucking dragging us into the ground.
>Buys 4chan from Moot
>Moot says 4chan is financially stable for the foreseeable furture
>Less than a year later Hiro claims the site is dying and he either needs to sell a lot of passes, get donations, or implement malicious ads
>Even though the site should not have been in trouble at all (And it wasn't as far as I'm concerned. We were never given any kind of proof it was, and Hiro actually tried comparing his monthly server costs to 90k a month when he pays most likely a fraction of that) people donated anyway.
>Despite him getting donations, he implemented malicious ads anyway
>Replaced the yotsuba page with an ad
>Tried to shut down third party archives so he could make 4chan archives pass exclusive
>Is now removing incredibly popular features without giving a single reason why, and only letting pass owners vote on whether or not the change was good, in an attempt to sell more passes

>>924788
>>924826
That's exactly how elections are actually won though.

>>925513
Continued.

I don't care if Hiro turns it all around and makes this place great again. As long as he is the admin I won't give a goddamn penny to 4chan. I've enabled adblock, and will never donate or buy a pass. He's clearly in this for the money and doesn't give a shit about the site, so I cannot and will not support him

>it's still a /pol/ meme only
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_parentheses

>>925518
>>925519
>He actually bought a good goy pass
I bought a pass during the Moot era because I couldn't get used to no captchas and just continued to support the site after that.

>>925513
>There's literally no reason
just pure curiosity. I made this myself a few times in my own guild. Opening a poll just to know how everyone felt. Besides this nothing changed. Some of them where really angry about it. HA HA HA. ... and this didn't happen just once. Raising hope and then fucking with them was fun.

>stacking the poll this badly
I don't really care either way because I don't use the inline extension but damn
(You)s is serious business

>>925523
Except that's a fucking awful way to run a site. Make a change that the majority clearly does not like, make a poll, see the majority does not like it, and then ignore it.

He's going to drive users away, I'm honestly a few more changes from finding a new place myself
>>925521
It's your decision, but Hiro is an obvious conman and you shouldn't be giving him money. But like I said, it's on you

>>925530
I'm positive 8gag will be more receptive to your whims, they desperately need new blood at the moment

>>925512
I agree with this

>>925530
You're correct, my man. Ignore the shitposter as always.

I might not renew my pass next year if matters continue to degrade like this, we'll see.

>>925534
>Not wanting a shit admin is asking too much
And 8gag has mods who will ban you for disagreeing with them on anything.

>>923816
Only 4chan Gold retards can vote, who are basically all newfags, so of course they would cry over the removal of a feature they think 4chan always had.
So it was all one big distraction. Typical fucking An Hiro. A distraction from what, though? What in particular is going on at the moment?

>Made a board just for pass owners
>Pass owners are now the only ones allowed to vote on how the site is changed
It's a matter of time before the place becomes unusable without a pass. The only chance of preventing that is if people stop fucking buying them.

The dotted line is ugly, (You)s were far more aesthetic.

Disregarding for a moment that the majority do in fact want them back something other than (You)s could potentially serve the same function as they did but what we have now isn't the it, I get the idea behind the change bit the broken line just looks like shit and needs to go.
