Early days it was because it served as a meme aggregator where the most popular stuff would float to the top so people with lives didn't have to spend all day lurking 4chan to get the hottest new lolcat and people without lives could get internet points for doing so. Then it was a source of social media engagement that let everyone use a pseudonym. Now it's because it's a permanent host for lots of niche questions that have been answered by actual human beings and affirms by community members. It's the refuge for people who realize the modern web is shit but either don't know about or won't put in the effort to dig beneath the surface layer of top 10 sites.

>>151154
They're useful for blog posts with like three comment chains and they do make it much easier to follow long conversations. They just require that the conversation be an orderly affair where people take their turn replying to the latest post. The more people pile into the conversation, the less likely that becomes.

>Why do some chan users want nested replies?
I like the system 4chan has, or maybe it's a feature of 4chan-x, I dunno. Where you can click on a reply and it will get nested within the post you're reading, and you can do this for replies to that reply and so on. On Kissu you can only view the replies to the post you're reading, and on some imageboards you can't even see the replies made to the posts at all.

Not only IRC but on 4chan itself. The bans page was like this in the first hour or so. 4 bans about complaining about 4chan. Nothing is changing other than the bare minimum so anyone thinking otherwise would be fools. That being said, I believe the userbase has taken notice and activity is going to fall overall. Not huge but I wouldn't be surprised if some boards cut activity cut by 50% or more. It wouldn't be surprising if we see boards starting to get culled for that reason too.

>cut activity cut by 50% or more
Do you really think it'd be that high a percentage? I think most people will still use it since it fills a niche very few other places online do, even if the execution of filling said niche is dogshit. The amount of people that care enough to use altchans now that it's back probably number less than 0.5% of 4chan's overall userbase.

It doesn't really matter if you can spot them and keep banning them, they can still evade it. The schizos outrank you in their dedication.

>Its the word shit combined with twitter
"schizo" is 100% a forced meme along with many others. In fact, you can probably pin-point the exact date they unleashed it through the bot spam networks if you bother to look in the archives. It's just one of many. Its only purpose is to shut down discussion of actual topics, divide people and discourage people that put in effort for continuing to participate.

There is a good reason why boards like /g/ went from people that actually knew about technology to
>lol tech workers general!

The vast majority of people can't get a dynamic IP anymore and don't know how to avoid cookies. The 900 second timer makes it annoying to by-pass them anyway. tor nodes are range banned. Common VPNs are range banned. Real users are fingerprinted via their browser. The website has malicious javascript running in your browser at all times. Mods and admins follow around certain users (the ones that put in effort) and do everything they can to silence them. Even the archives are purged of certain posts. Oh and don't forget the board freezing.

Despite all of that the so-called 'schizos' have free reign for years and years and years. The same topics posted on repeat everyday with no original posts in them. Known bots are allowed to run free. It's obvious what's going on.

But just try and make a post about it and watch a bunch of people like you come out of the woodwork to contribute nothing of value and call them names. You can't mention things like the military run pods with armies of bot farms behind them and endless IP addresses. Even though anyone that pays attention has known about these things since the 2010s (and before).

Or how about posting a thread with proof of such things only to watch every other thread on the board get bumped and filled with new bot posts. Despite it being 3am and the mods being 'asleep' along with most of the 'shitposters'.

It's a honeypot and you're not only participating in it and feeding it. You've actually fallen for the lies it propagates.

If you seriously can't handle a link to a pdf file and explanation for where the bot farms are coming from perhaps you should keep your opinion to yourself. It isn't "political" to link to a document that proves the point I was trying to make. How do you expect anyone to talk about "what happened to the board quality" when you can't even mention the Government? Are we supposed to pretend it isn't happening? Would you have preferred if I mentioned any of the hundred of private organizations that employee people for this purpose? Which *surprise* have the Government as their main client?

Again; you've been trained to have this knee jerk reaction. The same people that ruined discussion on the internet trained you not to point out that they're ruining the internet. It's almost like the psychological operation operation was a massive success! Why are you even mentioning the sekrit board in the most active thread on this entire website in the first place?

>>152029
Read it again. It clearly explains what the program is about. It's vague on purpose. Since the day-to-day operations of what's happening are classified. It is just one of many operations happening all over the world. I am not kidding when I tell you there are buildings staffed 24/7 with people that have no other job to monitor discussion and send in bots to shit the discussion up. Even on websites that aren't honeypots they run directly (which 4chan is).

The document I linked even explains why every popular youtuber has a "PR guy" and why they all parrot the same content and release it at the same time. I am trying to prove to you just how much things are controlled and why the internet suddenly changed in the mid-2000s. Please note the date of that document. Read it three times if you need to before it sinks in.

This used to be well known information. We used to talk about it all of the time. We used to name multiple groups that were known to be doing it (and fight back against it). But at some point around the early-mid 2010s they shut down discussion about it. Which again was my point: You can't even have a damn discussion about it without a bunch of people calling you a loon now and the moderator having a knee jerk reaction. Like I'm suddenly going to start going off on tangents like the bots posting on 4/pol/ and making jokes about muh Hitler and Da J00s. Which again is the point of all of this: Instead of reading the contents of my posts and having a friendly discussion people are trained now to tune out and blame all the problems on the few people that actually want to get to the heart of the issue. Instead of having a frank discussion about actual problems you want 500+ more posts about "the jannys!" and "the schizos!" and the same BS we've all read 100 times since yesterday. At some point it became impossible to have open and friendly dialog. Just because we might not agree doesn't mean I'm trying to convert you to some cause or 'shit the place up'.

The knee jerking moderators that are young and don't remember the before times are by far the worse effect of all of this. They think they're doing the place a service by shutting down so-called 'political discussion'. But then they'll turn right around and rant about their own 'politics'. Then when challenged they start issuing bans for 'politics'.

Which is exactly the same thing the 4chan mods have been doing to certain people for years. Tons of threads on a board like /g/ or /a/ where entire groups of people are slandered. But if one person from those groups throws a shot back or even makes a joke they're suddenly 'racists' or 'off-topic' or any of the other catch-all rules that are only ever used to used down discussion. There is a clear agenda and it's mainly being used to DIVIDE PEOPLE.

Seriously, if you can't see that 75%+ of 'discussion' happening on large websites like 4chan and social media are bot farms I don't know what anyone can do to convince you of the truth. They claim they make money on advertising and driving engagement. But they're FAKING the engagement. They don't want real people posting at all these days. They just want you endlessly scrolling and maybe clicking the like button.

If you don't believe me here is a simple test for you. Take that pdf file and post it on the 'political' board or /g/ where it's certainly 100% on-topic. See how long it takes for you to get a 3-day vacation. It won't take long. There are many many bits of information like the pdf file (and the name of the program listed in it) that are not 'on-topic' anywhere on the entire internet. Furthermore, no matter where you post them someone is always instantly alerted that they've been posted and the flood of bots soon follow. Since they've got a google alerts type system running that greps through the entire web looking for keywords, files, and people's names.

Of course. If one were to explain this and lay it out in a way that is easy to understand he's always banned, shouted over, told to take it elsewhere or flooded out. Along with being called all sorts of mean names. Even though it's all easy to prove. A few have even gotten bullets to the head for attempting to expose it just in the last few years.

They do, just like they banned all the culture posters. But what you're seeing happening is a selection effect where >>152009 says
>The schizos outrank you in their dedication
So the culture posters eventually throw in the towel after the mods abuses. The funposters eventually throw in the towel. The effort posters throw in the towel. All who's left, who's been selected for by team4chan themselves, are the absolutely maniacally dedicated schizo posters.
The mods have done this to themselves. It's like wiping out a patients bowels of any good bacteria and wondering why they're suddenly infected with salmonella. You wiped out the niche and the schizos flooded in, you created the cultureless wasteland ripe for colonization.

The whole problem with this is the mods don't really feel the sting for how bad they've made 4chan. That's what the disposable labor of the janitors is for. They suffer attrition, the mods sit back and make pronouncements and handle ban requests.

May be too soon to look at this but looking at all the boards a day or so after 4chan returned, most boards by and large have recovered but there seems to be a notable 10-30+% hit for some, /a/, /b/, /v/ are the ones of note seeing as they are the oldest boards. It's is significant in my opinion because I would wager those were by and large the best quality anonymous posters on the boards that left and aren't returning. 4chan might never recover from a loss like that culturally, it would not surprise me if it starts a more precipitous decline and trend.

I would say they are rudimentary in that they are in essence misaligned dumb AI systems to the effect of a paperclip maximizer, and don't really understand what they are doing.
However, they are very much effective at their reward function...Which of course isn't to give you things you want to see, but to maximize ad views/engagement.
Example: why are you recommended political garbage even though you never clicked on it? Because they have long realized the small percentage that do become very good, maybe the best, engagement metric/ad view cattle. (this is what humans call "pipelines") It's worth trying out showing you that stuff repeatedly even if there's only 0.1% chance you'll click on it, because eventually something might trigger you enough to click. You can generalize this to everything else...
why is the music they give you generic? Because in fact they don't care about tailoring your specific taste actually, despite the "personalization algorithm" moniker, what they care about is ads. So they give you something that is a "safe bet" and you won't click away from, rather than more personalized recommendations. Because all they are doing is hacking the engagement metric.
The two examples I gave are NOT contradictory by the way - they calculate where to take risks (example: political brain damage makes you life long ad cattle), where to not take risks (example: music, most people just wanna put something on. You have to put something they actively shut off, not something they will truly enjoy), in a nightmarish cold sterile walled garden.

I never understood why the metaposters or the frogjakschizos or all the other rabble laid claim to /qa] when they never had anything to begin with.
The only ones to develop a distinct identity and culture were the 2D/Random posters made up of various boards on the site like /jp/, [s4s], /a/, /g/, and more.
The rest was useless meta discussion on a board the mods never read, truthfully not even metaphorically. Even 8chan /operate/ was better at getting your ideas read by and that was an abyss of wasted energy.
That or it was /r9k/ or /soc/ blogposts or crap.

Take for example the soyteens.
Whereas /qa] was focused on the board and community they dedicated themselves to attacking a supposed bogeyman that was ruining the board.
Ironically while some may claim they were influenced by /int*/ I think they had much more in common with hotwheels and 8chan and their paranoia and obsession. On the other hand /qa] was willing to regularly wipe the board with spam and managed to maintain cohesion despite everything.

Ultimately I feel that the conflict was the modern 4chan culture attempting to attack the sudden appearance of an existential threat. Ideas and zeigeists at some point take a life of their own and people are turned into unwitting carriers and propagators instead of generators.
If the /qa] was allowed to live in peace as the board at the center crossroads its influence and ethos could spread across the site potentially leading to users on other boards banding together and taking matters into their own hands. Which would lead to a revolution or an exodus 2.0 and things would never be the same.
Or something along the lines of that. It was too much trouble from too many for too small a board for too long.

Most of those sound like contrarians or trolls, but that's how I perceive it rather than whatever the truth is.

I paid 10$ for a Something Awful account a long long time ago just to post and read without restrictions, but at least there was some good content there to justify it despite Lowtax being a PoS. And he was despised on a level maybe bigger than rapeape. 4chan has been lacking quality content for sometime, so if hiro put there one of the old Something awful banners that read "Give us all your money", 99% people would leave.

Just my opinion, anyways.

Forgot to mention, the "10$ to post, 10 more to unban yourself" thing only worked when there were no alternatives to SA. In the moment social media and reddit happened, they began bleeding money. I think something similar would happen if 4chan was suddenly paywalled

I wonder if the imageboard format will simply be something only people of a certain generation will burn a candle for in the future. I've spoken to people only a few years younger than me before about the value of anonymity on the internet, for example, and they look at me as if I'm speaking a foreign language.

That's really thorough work! Good job!
Disappointing news, but I guess it's to be expected. 4chan's massive numbers mean even a small decrease can mean a proportionately huge gain elsewhere, though, so I still think it's a beneficial thing that will be felt across various sites.

 No.152488

>>152486
The anonymity is one thing, but just the rather simple layout itself is what I like about it. And everyone is more or less put on the same level, even outside of the anonymity aspect, where each thread is a just a single string of posts. I actually don't mind discord, and that's still better than the bigger social media sites like Facebook for any kind of discussion. At least in the way I use it, which is probably ignoring a lot of its features. Twitter has useful functions as well but there's no way in hell I'd used it for any kind of serious discussion and it's crazy to me that it and Facebook have become the center of discussion in politics/on the news about how people interact on them.

And yeah, seeing how younger people use the internet is bizarre.

Ano... eto... My fellow qaeers, I may have screwed the pooch. I used 4stats as a source and I didn't realize that their day count is off by one. So... My conclusions were wrong!! orz

Here's the ACTUAL data.

Headline number: post-hack 4chan has decreased by 153K PPD.


In terms of raw PPD change, the boards affected most are:

/vg/: -29741 PPD | -25% Pre-hack Activity | Current PPD: 90695
/pol/: -24741 PPD | -30% Pre-hack Activity | Current PPD: 58797

/bant/: -3828 PPD | -45% Pre-hack Activity | Current PPD: 4767


In terms of activity level change, the boards affected most are:

/mlp/: 0% (No change)
/hm/: 0% (No change)
/toy/: 0% (No change)
/g/: -1% Post-hack Activity
/soc/: -4% Post-hack Activity


Takeaways:
The 4chan hack had a SIGNIFICANT affect on the overall state of 4chan. 4chan has been consistently losing users each year since 2022 to the tune of total sitewide PPD decreasing by ~100K each year since 2022. Post-hack 4chan has decreased by 153K PPD, down to 561878 PPD, which if long-term trends of user loss continue, would have naturally occurred by approximately 2030.

I personally feel like as if imageboards, as a format, already died in the early 2010s at the latest. I think younger people nowadays don't really care about the format on its own, but rather about the "culture" of infamous adopters like 4chan, which has to be most people's first experience with an imageboard in the first place. If someone first goes there now, because they're intrigued by 4chan's premise, I assume they must already feel perfectly content with constant shitflinging and drama, meaning there would be no reason to even think about looking for any alternatives. That is unless their favorite board gets nuked either directly or indirectly and they want to regroup elsewhere.
In short: I think the influx of people who are entirely new to imageboards would immediately stop if 4chan were to die and the only people still hanging around on altchans will be former 4channers.

heh I remember I was once the board owner of the /jp/ board on an obscure imageboard that’s been lost to time
it was one of those 8chan alternatives that occasionally sprung up however it was during the middle of the fading twilight era
the site owner seemed to be free of the admin megalomania that was so common at the time and after witnessing firsthand the devastation wrought by tyrannical mods and janitors i figured i would take a crack at it and take the reigns and carve out some oasis in the growing wasteland
make the change you want to see and so that
after all i had seen others do the same and manage to build and maintain their own boards

of course i had no plan and no knowledge whatsoever and the board died almost immediately
it got a few posts over the first week or so which for me being a newcomer was utterly huge. i expected it to stay totally empty.
but it quickly dried up. without anything of interest to maintain momentum the board was dead in the water.
and without an existing community to transplant you’re working from nothing which is much much harder.
the only advantages i really had were the novelty and the fact that the site was made up of similarly minded users who wanted a change and the legacy board name
i did get a few encouraging posts to change the css but i was no css pro
i think even a janitor offer but maybe that was another board i claimed at one point

its NOT easy by any stretch of the imagination
the sheer number of empty imageboards is a testament to that
if i had to make a rough guess i’d say the ratio of successes to board creations is 1:50 to 1:100
don’t know if i’ll ever try again but if i do i’ll be much better prepared

its a bit surprising how rudimentary, crude, and undeveloped the imageboard meta if you would call it is
people throw around vague buzzwords and like OC and rules but as to the actual mechanics nobody has any real clue

I think 4chan is serving more as the holdout for people still interested in the web outside of huge social media sites, and there will always be that market no matter what time we're in. But also that market is locked to 4chan because of that immense notoriety pull which garners it all the attention it has in the first place. As we saw recently plenty of people are happy to jump ship to alts if it dies but if 4chan is alive then they'll begrudgingly still use it because of the addiction it's built in them.

Is the joke that cloudflare and every social media site do worse things?
The only suspicious thing is that they have such a way to inject javascript through websockets. They could just run any javascript they want by putting it on their website (like integrity.wasm itself), but that they have such a direrced method makes me think it's to run special javascript payloads for certain known users. Possibly even zeroday exploits. Imagine the top soyjak (who is admin and literally looks like the ugliest drawings on their site) getting offended by a user who posted a loli vampire, and he goes all LE PEDO MENACE MUST DESTROY, and runs a zeroday (which he purchased on the blackmarket for thousands of dollars) specifically on that user's browser to "own" him.

>You should probably look at the numbers a month, half a year, or a year from now.
The PPH trend looks to be fairly stable. It's been nearly a week. I think it's safe to assume that there aren't going to be any spikes from people suddenly finding out 4chan is back. If anything, the lack of gradual increase over the course of a week tells me that the difference Pre- and Post-hack reflects the attachment level users had to 4chan, meaning that the remainder who have yet to return are unlikely to return at all and have likely found alternative outlets for discussion that they might have used 4chan for.

I believe the bots that were present on /biz/ that was advertising and etc. got completely killed by the new captcha and people aren't keen to rewrite them because crypto isn't do so hot right now. It's actually nice for once to have traffic that isn't just altcoin shilling and have a variety of topics on the board even if crypto still somewhat dominates but it's back to around 2018 or so type topic variety.

I'll try and be as nice as possible since you don't seem that malicious a person but Tor boards don't really work unless you're a free speech absolutist with that goal in mind because you can't ban anyone and anyone you moderate will just hop on another IP to spam 5 seconds later because it's trivially easy to.

I'm not really sure if this counts as a happening or not, but on 10th of May, at 4:00:00 GMT, 4/vt/ reached another order of magnitude in terms of post numbers. That board was created on January 29, 2021, based on (now archived) post No. 1.
This would have happened sooner if not for the hack. Not only because there was obviously no activity on that board during downtime, but also because some events that would cause many more posts to appear than normal happened during that time and because from what I gather /vt/'s community has splintered during the hack, some amount of posters not willing to return from bunkers.

if you set up a piece of software that uses ip addresses as the way of user identification on a network where ip addresses are meaningless then you obviously need to bring on an application layer method of user identification
for instance, kohlchan allows tor/i2p posting. if you crack an argon2d hash, you get a session. then you can post freely. if you misbehave your session is revoked and you'll have to crack another hash. since argon2d is designed to be painfully slow for cracking, it essentially works as a PoW solution that guarantees the user's anonymity while making it a hassle for troublemakers
of course it won't deter the most egregious spammers but ip bans won't either

I figured since it has been a bit over a month, we should see what has happened to 4chan since he downtime. It seems like overall, 4chan has recovered some pre-hack traffic bu it is still missing around 5000 posts/day of activity and it has plateaued. Looking around at some of the boards, it seems like most has recovered and in fact, some boards have grown. However, if you look at the top four losers from >>152500, although there has been some recovery, /vg/, /pol/, /vt/ and /a/ have all still declined and have not gotten back the users from pre-hack. Only when you get to /a/ do you see traffic is back to normal largely.

Update: Lambdaplusjs re-opened and has been trying various changes to fight the spam, most of which have had limited success. In particular, harsher cooldowns and captchas led to the spammer posting nearly 24/7 while few other people were able or willing (depending on whether cooldowns or captchas were the limiting factor) to post. At the moment, the site is using an improved version of the old /pending/ system. When posts come at an unusually high rate, the posts are collapsed to a stub in threads and don't show up at all in the index, until a moderator reviews them. There has also been an increase in moderator activity, presumably because the mods don't want to see the site forced into going account-only.

About 90% of the posts on Aoichan are now being made by one race-obsessed poster known to others as "/pol/ schizo". Although he makes most of his posts on /poo/, he is not contained there, and fills up the other boards with posts that are not always political but feature similar levels of stupidity and delusion.

when mods go to the lengths to delete actual on topic threads that aren't breaking rules, then no, it's not exactly their fault. even if you want to point the finger at ritual posters, ecelebfags, etc., it's still not an excuse to go scorched earth. even with all its current problems, at least several people still make an effort to discuss Touhou video games. in fact, there was a thread where somebody held a contest for EoSD to get the lowest score possible on stage 3. non lazy mods would delete the garbage ritual posting and let and on topic posting stay, but they don't because they're lazy and they personally hate anything Touhou and like what this anon said >>156399, they let numerous other threads with the same problems go unscathed. if touhou threads getting purged from /v/ really was because "generals shouldn't be here", then the other generals would also get purged too, but they don't because mods don't care about being fair and enforcing rules properly, they're power tripping assholes that delete the things that they personally dislike and hurt their feelings and that's it.

Within days of this happening I started getting banned for posting in random threads while breaking no rules. I also stumbled upon some new words that are instant bans. If you attempt posting them you get a 3+ day ban. One of them is a link to an art site where a guy is a critic of modern artists and publishes papers about science stuff. There is absolutely no reason for it to exist on whatever list this is (I assume it's the one for filtering out pizza. Only thing I can think of that would be that harsh). Normally, when I stumble upon random words they've filtered it just doesn't let you post and says it's "spam".

Anyway, it seems I've angered moderation on the two boards I've been poking for the last week. I thought moderation was more lax since the hack because I wasn't getting bothered at all even when posting stuff I knew the moderators disliked but wasn't technically against the rules. But now one is following me around and obviously issuing 3-day bans for things that angered him in other threads. I knew I was arguing with one yesterday because I recognized his typing habits.

I went to the IRC to report the obvious error with that URL and basically got told to fuck off because "this isn't the place to appeal bans". Whenever they don't want to admit to shady shit they just act retarded.

Every year is worse than the last. I pine for the days of when it was just /a/ and maybe /a/ and /b/. I miss that sense of freedom and being able to say whatever the fuck you wanted. I don't care if people disagree. I just hate being silenced for speaking my mind because "wrong opinion". Then watching some other guy spew his nonsense all over the place that just happens to have the right opinion. So he's never punished.

To be fair. This isn't exclusively a problem there. It's just more prevalent because there are more eyes on it. Doesn't really matter where you go. There is always some champion of discussion lurking around thinking that everyone else is the real cancer.

If your arguments can't stand without censorship then they aren't worth much at all in my opinion. It isn't hard to simply ignore posts you don't like. Mods shouldn't do anything but delete pizza. Let the users police themselves. This worked fine for decades.

 No.156623

I don't use /int/ much but that kind of reminds me of what happened to /k/ a few years ago. /k/ was pretty bad for years but when that Russian war started it was like the board changed over night. Suddenly non-gun political threads were allowed and being posted without any moderation. After like 3 days the board was basically /pol/. It's how that vatnik forced meme got started. The threads about the war were really strange and non-/k/. Instead of people talking about tanks and small arms and drones it was all off topic stuff unrelated to weapons or strategy of war.

I saw the same thing happen to /x/ around the same time. Combination of /pol/ threads and huge uptick in blog posting.

It all reads like the same types of people that changed /pol/'s culture around 2018 or so. Same kind of strategy behind the obvious off-topic BS threads. Flood of bots along with people you could tell hadn't lurked for more than 2 minutes before jumping in to turbo post. Most had to either be jannys or at the very least pass users. Since they were never banned and could by-pass cool down timers. Same kind of things happening in threads as well. They always either replied with rage bait or they would just go off on unrelated tangent. You could tell they were sticking to a script and they always refuse to engage with anything that wasn't on the script.

I'm convinced there are very few real people left on the main boards these days. From time to time the bot farms will stop posting for a bit and when they do the place feels like a ghost town. I'd wager for every real user there are at least 10-30 bots or paid posters now. It's really obvious when they flood in and start posting the same thing over and over again right as a story is breaking in MSM or "going viral" elsewhere. People claim 4chan is now downstream from places like twitter but I don't believe that is really true. Twitter and the other social networks have been around for almost 20 years now. It wasn't until the last couple of years of the 2010s that 4chan was "downstream" from anything. It used to be 24-48 hours ahead of such places. MSM used to be behind and forced to respond to things organically happening on the internet. Now it feels like things are inverted and they're ahead of the internet.

This is my TL:DR way of saying most of the threads on that board at any given time probably aren't real. I imagine anyone that was really into /int/ fucked off to somewhere else long ago.

Don’t forget the general population trend for the whole site has been decreasing for years now and there have been no great influxes lately ala 2013 or 2016. Therefore it’s unlikely that outsiders like Twitter users are responsible.

Really what we could be seeing is the cannibalism of the remaining userbase by the neo-4chan cult-ure. There’s no one single bogeyman but a collection of various groups and individuals responsible. Ranging from corporate shills to discord groups to government agencies to brainwashed /pol/sharts to the site administration. The one saving grace is there’s no unified front and they all have conflicting interests.
Maybe if the boards managed to band together like /qa/ they could pushback against this.

Probably but that doesn't change the fact that it happened over night. There had been plenty of NATO vs. other countries wars over the years. /k/ mostly just stuck to talking about weapon systems on either side and light banter about which was better. /k/ always had its fans of Soviet era/Russian hardware and even had a somewhat pro-Russian slant during other conflicts. But when this war was announced there was a flood of obviously new people spamming every thread about it. They refused to keep it contained to one thread. Then they refused to keep it contained in just one thread when there was an attempt to force them to co-exist. I'd been using /k/ for a long time and I never saw anything like it on that board ever.

Sure there were annoying tripfags in the AR and AK generals and the attention whores. But they were the kind of tripfag attention whores that showed up to meet-ups dressed in cosplay and cummed in the brownies. They weren't the kind that shit all over their own home.

/k/ changed so quickly that I went from lurking it for over a decade to not visiting it at all within the span of like 5 days. That's how drastic the shift was.

 No.156777

>>156775
>Then they refused to keep it contained in just one thread when there was an attempt to force them to co-exist.

I should be more clear. They refused to co-exist within one general for the war thread. In the past any board would have no allowed what happened on /k/. Where there were two generals for the same topic comprised of people talking about the same thing just rooting for a different 'team'. If this had not been allowed they would have probably burned themselves out and would have been contained within just another general. No doubt new tripfags would have been born as well. But the rest of the board would have been safe as it had been for years. /k/ was always good about containing its cancer.

By allowing both sides to have their own general they not only shit up their own threads but also every other thread. Used to be you could ignore the AR/AK general(s) and use the rest of the board in peace.

Also before anyone says it. No AR/AK generals having their own threads wasn't the same as having two for a war. /k/ never really had generals for wars. War hardware? Yes. War news? Sure. But there was never really a "Talk about the war and spam memes between happenings" thread. When something was blown up or a major offensive happened /k/ would talk about it for awhile. Mostly in a non-political context. Otakus salivating over hardware they'll never own/run and that sort of thing. Or tactics. But never general 'link to MSM and spam memes' threads. In fact, that stuff was expected to be hosted off the board (ideally /pol/) to prevent weapon otaku from being flooded out. Which is exactly what happened.

There is nothing to replace what /k/ was on the internet either. Every other place where you can talk about /k/ stuff is flooded with the type of people you don't want to discuss /k/ stuff with.

after magaman won in 2016 a LOT, and I mean a LOT of western money was redirected to try and control narratives on the Internet, because that's basically how he won.
They were some 10 to 15 years late, Russians and Chinese were already doing this
However westerners are crippled on this endeavour because it's more or less proven that the only ways to control a narrative is silencing inconvenient speakers, and they can't exactly expropriate reddit, twitter or 4chan.

It has been proven over and over again throughout the years I've been on the internet that mods have been doing this since forever. They did it on BBSs, they did it on USENET, the did it on Fidonet, they did it on forums, they do it on imageboards and it happens on major "platforms" like youtube.

I'm not sure if you even lurked /cow/ but the youtube mafia of "trusted reporters" and whatever they call mods were exposed multiple times. They all hung out together in the same chats/private email lists/boards together and they covered for each other. That's why all the "influencers" covered the same things and released videos about those things within hours of each other. That's why important "influencers" could get away with doing things that would normally get someone small banned. That's why any small channels that exposed such people got insta-banned. That's why "influencers" that got strikes could get them easily overturned and go on like it never happened. Similar leaks happened with twitch, twitter and yes even 4chan and 8ch multiple times in the past. Never mind the things our Japanese friends on their communities have exposed over the years about mods and admins selling out and datamining them.

>>157483
No proof is ever good enough for you people. Also if done carefully it's usually impossible to prove most anything. Much can be learned through simple speculation and common sense. All one has to do is see the patterns.

Take /g/ for example. Same shit bait threads posted everyday for years. Mod caught doing it multiple times. But point it out and post the proof. Enjoy your ban and enjoy being called a "schizo".

I've personally been run off both /g/ and /a/ multiple times simply because I tried talking about something the mod or the mod's friend dislikes. These people have google alerts set-up to instantly notify them when certain names and phrases are posted anywhere on the internet. They even have it linked to their private chats so they can dogpile in to "control the narrative". When that fails they just ban anyone that speaks out or flood the place with bots and/or pizza. If admin or mod is involved (usually are) they'll pass along your IP address in an attempt to dox you as well. They'll even go as far as DDOS'ing it to prevent you from using the internet at all.

Just find something they dislike and try to talk about it if you don't believe me. Leave them bread crumbs to faked social media accounts to follow and maybe get yourself a residential IP address that's easy to set-up honeypot behind. I've routed my posts through one before then waited and watched to see what would happen. Next thing you know they're posting the faked social media accounts name/info in the thread in an attempt to scare you and they're running through every script kiddie tool on the planet attempting to pwn what they think is your real PC. It's very sad and pathetic but that's the world we live in.

Don't ask me why people are like this. I will never understand it myself. They have a massive need for attention and they're willing to sell their soul for paper. It's sad and we'd all be better off without them. They are the exact kind of people that shouldn't have been allowed anywhere near a device with internet access. They're the exact kind of people that refused to use the internet until social media became a thing.

If you think they're nasty to anons you should see how they talk about their "fans" and people that send them money. I've sneaked into their private chats before. Trust me. They aren't shy about letting everyone know how they feel about the "idiots" that send them money and make them rich.

I forget the mods name but he was doxed long ago. He basically posts the bait threads about how Linux/FOSS is garbage and Apple is great 20 times a day. If you lurk when he's asleep there is at least one dedicated anon that posts his dox from time to time. But he has to be really creative because there is no fewer than 9,000 filtered versions of the mod's name in the word filters.

There are some other no-no topics you flat out can't discuss as well. But I'm not going to talk about them here right now because if I posted them here it would attract the kind of attention I know the admin doesn't want.
>Like what, on /a/?
If you talk about who's running Nyaa/Seadex/private trackers expect a flood of outsiders dogpiling. If you post proof of what they're doing expect at least a 3-day ban. They like 3-day bans because you can't appeal them and the mod can get away with lying around the real reason they banned you.

Again I don't want to go into too much detail. For what it's worth. If you point out the private tracker thing and the seadex/nyaa thing on /g/ they dogpile on you there too. But at least the thread usually gets to 20 posts from what I suspect are real people before the mod comes along and deletes it for being "off-topic".

There is a lot of stuff like that you can't talk about and that different groups of idiots have a tight grip on. For example, the group mentioned above that controls modern "fansubbing" has been making lots of money selling nyaa accounts for years now. At least $100-$500 for an account. Which costs them nothing to create from the admin panel. They claim registration is closed for pizza spam while having at least 25 or more moderators. So wtf are they even doing?

Similarly, these same people have gotten their groups auto-listed in all the *arr software above actual groups. They also run the "private" torrent trackers. Which are somehow "private" despite being promoted on reddit, /g/ and a million other places and discussed openly everyday. If you point out that it's impossible to secure and make the torrent protocol "private" they gaslight and dogpile and accuse you of being some kind of federal agent and/or claim you're "butthurt" because "you can't get in". As if passing an interview on IRC is hard or something. They also really hate it if you point out how easy it is to use USENET/IRC to get the same content faster. Or how anyone can ghost leech off these "private" torrents without them being able to do anything about it.

A few weeks ago I ate a multi-month ban for teaching anons on /g/ how to ghost leech from private trackers. Since they can build ratio easily if they're already members and their friends can download anything from the tracker without an account as long as you share the torrent's hash with them. It isn't even hard information to find. It has been on the installgentoo wiki for years. Which used to be used by a lot of /g/entlemen before this current batch of mods took the place over sometime in the mid-2010s.

Same thing happened when we all fled to /tech/ before the great purge of websites in late 2019. Similar group (probably the same people) weaseled their way into mod positions on that board and shut down open discussion. So we fled again...and again...and again...until eventually there was only like 3 of us left and it became impossible to attract any new blood.

There are a lot of topics like that on different boards that are basically instant ban and/or harassment/flood by dedicated groups. Last week I found yet another link that's on 4chan's instant ban list. No spam warning or anything. Just instant 3-day ban and claim that you were attempting to post cheese pizza. The website is simply some dude's blog where he talks about /sci/ and /art/ stuff.

Sometimes they wipe entire IP sub nets. I know because I annoyed a mod once by resetting my IP at least 10 times. Then I got bored of it and got a new IP one last time, and started posting normally.

tldr it’s all pure speculation and delusion that exists only in your head. You claim to have seen all these proofs and private chats yet you never posted any logs and dodge all requests.

Same goes to your “multimedia OS”. You blog it everywhere including places like frenschan yet nowhere have you posted any demo or screenshots of it. It literally doesn’t exist, just like all of your shizobabblings.

I've explained several times that if you mention certain keywords and link to certain things it draws in people no matter where it's posted on the web. Do you really want me bringing that here just to prove you wrong? (you are wrong by the way)
>That just goes into plain doxxing territory, and is an asshole move to begin with. Good work, mods.
First, it's not "doxxing".

Second, posting proof that the people running such places are openly hostile and profiting off things that should be free/done for the love is not "doxing". Posting screenshots of what they openly discuss in public is not "doxing". The mods only ban such things because the exact people that were being shown to do these shady things were posting in the thread much as you are now. Claiming everyone is crazy and lying while openly linking to the thread in their chat room and sending in the dogs to shit the place up. Just like they openly admit to ddos'ing any and all nyaa clones they don't personally control. Like nyaa.pantsu. It's almost like they're doing it for profit and to be a bunch of faggots isn't it?
>Which you can't post here because...
Because it's off topic and if you'd bothered to lurk you'd already know what I'm referencing.

>>157586
I too have gotten entire regions range banned simply for posting things within the rules that the mod disliked and falsely banned me over. It's particularly annoying when they're throwing around insults left and right then turn around and swing a ban hammer because you quoted them. Once they slide the first unjust ban in they can always claim you're "ban evading" going forward. The rules are never applied fairly and haven't been for many years.

>>157587
Ah I see you're the exact kind of person I was talking about. Makes sense. "Everyone I don't like is the same person". Who's delusional now?

It's almost like there are people getting paid to follow someone around the web everywhere isn't it? That or you have no life. Either way you can't argue in good faith so you have to resort to doing stuff like this.

I haven't tested if it was the entire domain or just the link to that pdf or one of the other 4 I attempted to post in a reply to an anon on /g/ that asked for direct links. I honestly think it was the mod baiting me now.

Please do so. “They” already know about this place and the fact that you post here anyway, if they want to stop you from posting here they would have done it already.
But I doubt you have any proof to provide at all.
> Who's delusional now?
It’s fact and I am correct. You are the same person who is posting about OpenBSD, and multiple long posts recently here on /maho/. Otherwise you would have denied directly that you are not that person. You have the chance right now to prove that I’m wrong. Just say you’re not the same person directly.
But the fact that you mentioned
> follow someone around the web everywhere
You admitted it yourself. I am following the person on /g/ OpenBSD thread and the fact that you brought this out of nowhere is the admission of guilt.

4chan like all forums was created and sustained by a single clique that insisted on it until a fandom formed. 4chan had Raspberry Heaven 22 years ago and even thought there's exactly one (1) person left from that clique still on team 4chan, the culture they fostered is still intrinsically part of site moderation to this day.

Aaah you are part of the torrent hatefandom. makes sense.

having been part of what.cd and currently redacted I've come across a bunch of permahaters like you before. Nothing anyone ever says will satisfy you except the news of the tracker ecosystem just disappearing. Not that you can think of a better replacement or that somehow the people who set up the infrastructure and spent time and money making it work are not justified in trying to make ends meet.

I do concede some of them are disingenous. But your ethical framework and interpretation of what's actually happening is frankly retarded.
