>>8106 I agree PoW and TABS should be a local tool.I arguing against the guy who mentioned those tools were made in detriment of locals, where they clearly are to handle global business.

>>8107 They are to the detriment of locals in most instances. It's the exception that a spammer would sit there jumping to a bunch of dead boards to spam images when 99% of the time their objective is to annoy the users on active boards. The overwhelming majority of the time neither of those systems would need to be applied globally.

>>8108 >It's the exception that a spammer would sit there jumping to a bunch of dead boards to spam That's clearly not true. Back on 8chan prime it was quite easy to find spam on smaller boards, remembee the brown pill flood, heck, you could even find pizza. It was such a mess. Again, stop acting like Sylvia is a local /v/ business whe it clearly isn't

>>8110 >that's not true, 4 years ago it happened Stop being retarded. >Again, stop acting like Sylvia is a local /v/ business whe it clearly isn't He literally only posts on threads where people are having conversations. He's not just randomly spamming pictures in secret unlisted boards then linking them to the host to get the site taken down. Stop making me explain things you already know you fucking faggot.

>>8101 >>8103 If it wasn't a global tool, posting would be a mess. Bypasses are assigned globally. Let's say /v/ has Proof of Work on and /v/ doesn't. A user posts on /b/ and gets a bypass. Should they now be allowed to post on /v/? Having a bypass per-user per-board isn't really feasible and would require a complete rethink about how bans are handled. There's also the issue of difficulty. The PoW system can have variable difficulty. If /v/ and /b/ both have Proof of Work on, but /v/'s difficulty is 200 and /b/'s is 100, should they be allowed to post on /v/? They solved an "easier" challenge. The only alternative would be to track what difficulty, if any, a bypass was solved at and then check each board you post on to see if their difficulty is higher. But this could also lead to users have to "upgrade" their bypass every time the proof of work level on a board increases, or if they go to a different board. You'd potentially end up having to solve a PoW challenge every single time you switch boards, or if the Board Owner keeps creeping up the difficulty, between posts. It sounds great. "My favorite board isn't being spammed so we don't need all these barriers!". But the reality is that carving it out per-board would put up more artificial barriers. Per-board TOR and filters that autodelete posts are much more doable. The question was primarily whether or not these would make for a worse experience for some users.

>>8100 And to address this, we're hammering out the issues. It should be turned on much less often now, and once users get a bypass they should be set for weeks unless they dump their cookies. We are integrating a way to export bypass cookies just in case users like to dump their cookies often. The initial tool was a bit hacky but it's improved a lot. If you still have concerns, or your users are still having issues posting, send me an e-mail (codexx [at] cock [dot] li) and I'll work with you directly to improve the situation.

>>8112 >Bypasses are assigned globally. Then they should be assigned locally. >filters that autodelete posts are much more doable Why would you make a filter that auto deletes instead of a filter that blocks?

Re: Global vs local controls The tl;dr is, having it as a global system uses less resources, is more efficient, and has some other advantages as to why Stephen built it that way. Not least of all the aforementioned "the spammer will just hit board after board in sequence instead of being locked out everywhere at once." This arrangement is baked into Lynxchan's engine, and asking us to change it is the equivalent workload of asking a car mechanic to move the wheels to the inside and put the engine in the trunk while keeping the rest drivable. It would fundamentally change how huge sections of the site's core works, and would effectively not be Lynxchan but an entirely new imageboard that we would be writing from scratch.

>>8115 Okay. Now do the reason why post block filters aren't a thing

>>8111 >>that's not true, 4 years ago it happened So it happened and you are assuming there's an existing risk. Thanks for according on my point. >He literally only posts on threads where people are having conversations Just because he's acting like that it doesn't mean he can attack using a different vector later. It doesn't mean all future spam attacks are going to be focused on /v/ using the same tactics. >>8114 >Then they should be assigned locally. I won't be solving a different captcha whenever I want to post on a different board, faggot. That would be a big mess. >>8112 >The question was primarily whether or not these would make for a worse experience for some users. The autodelete and autoban filters were implemented on Hispachan when it was online and it was such a big mess, so I highly discourage you to implement something like that over here.

>>8116 Easy: It's a retarded system that only the mongrels that used to run Hispachan thought it was a good idea.

>>8117 >So it happened and you are assuming there's an existing risk. Thanks for according on my point. I called it an exception, which already assumes that is something that can happen. Never once did I say that global mitigations shouldn't exist for those exceptions, either. You are legitimately fucking retarded dude. >Just because he's acting like that it doesn't mean he can attack using a different vector later. It doesn't mean all future spam attacks are going to be focused on /v/ using the same tactics. I never said it did. Did you read the posts you're responding to? >I won't be solving a different captcha whenever I want to post on a different board, faggot. That would be a big mess. He said while solving a captcha for every single post in this thread. No one thinks solving one captcha for one bypass on a board that will last for fucking weeks is a big deal, stop being stupid. >>8118 Jschan has word blocking and it works fine. You can't just say something doesn't work because some spic monkeys used it and you didn't like it you stupid faggot. There is no reason why I as a BO shouldn't be able to block white space characters that spammers use to fuck with my board because the Admins are too stupid to do it themselves. Why should I wait 6 months for Acid to mitigate spam that I could prevent going through instantly if I had the ability to block posts based on my own regex filters? You are treating Acid like he should be personally responsible for every single board and how they operate. That is complete antithetical to the point of 8chan. BO's should have maximum agency over how they moderate their boards. If you don't like the block filters of a board then make your own without them.

I've noticed that the bypasses now last way longer. I got a bypass cookie last week and it still working. I assume it's a feature to make it work with the tabs, so I'm glad I have to solve less captchas now.

So, I was wondering how much calls to the API are too much calls. I'm developing a python toolbox for interacting with the 8chan API as a base for more complex programs. I want to: >Check if 8chan is online >Send messages >Read threads The last part seems complicated, for instance, I have a chabot that makes posts and I want the program to know when the bot is getting (you)s, my script currently: >Download the content of the thread >Check if there are new messages >Check if among the new messages there are (you)s This seems unpractical since the script makes several calls to the api every minute. So I want to know how many calls are too much. I know with webhooks I can perform this tool way more easily, since my script only gets alerted only when an event happens (new messages in this case) but I don't know a single thing about webhooks and I think they aren't currently working on 8moe.

>>8122 It'll be adjusted to whatever interferes most with your program. If that isn't sufficient then we have the ability to lock the API behind encrypted keys the way some sites already do. Please see Global Rule 3, last section that flatly prohibits: >bot programs or other unauthorized software. Half of the Internet is already overran with AI posting bots pretending to be people. There's absolutely no good reason to bring that stuff here, one of the few refuges away from the cacophonic bland mush of the normalfag Internet. Once upon a time I had the idea to lock the API and write an authorized bot that would function like the old Xchan directory dumper. The thought was to give out a copy and an API key to new BOs so they could dump personal content and help get their board off the ground but if a copy was misused we could simply revoke its key. To prevent other bots, key handouts would be manual and the admins would have to personally sign off on each one. We opted not to do this in favor of leaving the API available for legitimate users who build reader tools and personal archive bots and the like. That was maybe a year and a half ago. I know what its like to fiddle with projects and how addictive that is, so I'm not going to suggest that you should quit working on it. But please, take it somewhere else.

As per the meta thread on /v/ >>>/v/827576 >>>/v/827627 >>>/v/827630 >No, these characters were created using photogrammetry, a technique that involves taking multiple photos and video of an object (or person) from different angles to "scan" it and create a 3D model of it. 8moe's admins (and ATF's staff) ban pornography of characters created through photogrammetry such as Natalia Korda (RE Revelations 2), Alice Williams and Emma Phillips (both from Detroit: Become Human) because there is legal precedent for using photo manipulation to create pornography, and they fear that porn of characters modelled entirely on a minor will approach such legal precedent and could be used against them by law enforcement. >According to ATF staff's logic, motion capture is not close enough to legal precedent, and should not pose a risk to their website and its users. Because of this, they allow porn of Sherry Birkin on their forums (their booru doesn't allow "hyperrealistic" porn in general, regardless of how it was created). Characters whose physique is inspired by real people but who were not created using techniques such as photogrammetry are also far enough away from legal precedent to be "safe". Following this logic, characters like Ellie from TLoU and Sherry Birkin (currently banned in 8moe) should be allowed in the site, but this is at the discretion of the admins and BOs. --- <So if that's known about nuSherry then why is she still banned here by the admins >Because the admins aren't aware of the difference between motion capture and photogrammetry. I recommend to raise this issue on /site/.

>>8124 Do you people ever stop to wonder why you're hated so much by people who would ordinarily be neutral bystanders? Everywhere you go you bring unwanted scrutiny on the rest of us because you just could not keep your hand off your dick.

>>8124 We had discussions on the matter a year or more ago, so I cannot recall all the details and hypotheticals that were discussed, but there's a few issues at play here. I will address them in no particular order. >admins aren't aware of the difference between motion capture and photogrammetry We are aware of the difference. Only models created with photogrammetry are disallowed because they recreate the likeness of a real child. >Sherry Birkin is only motion captured We were informed the model was created with photogrammetry. When I announced the removal of a post with Sherry Birkin featured, I feel I made it clear the decision was based on the photogrammetry issue and I have not personally seen anyone contesting it until now. If you have behind-the-scenes materials on the model's creation then please share them. >motion capture is fine by photogrammetry is not I just said this above but want to qualify that, in my non-expert opinion, it could be argued that animations are also a problem is they're used in something pornographic. But the law was written two decades ago by guys who can't figure out e-mail and there's not really much, if any, precedent on judging where the line is. Regardless, I doubt anyone is going to use some game's mocap data in their porn, so it's probably a non-issue in 99% of cases anyways. >ATF allows photogrammetry I'd be interested to speak to their admins and hear what legal advice they received on the matter, if any. We erred on the side of caution with the decision but if there are experts who feel our interpretation of the law is wrong and we have more leeway then it's always worth revisiting the matter. >>8122 The engine does not have webhooks but you can probably piggyback off of websockets once those are reimplemented. If you're going to poll the API, you should avoid rapid-fire pings that might trip anti-DDoS measures. One ping per minute would be background noise. One ping a second would be way too much. You probably don't need anything faster than that.

>>8125 >3DCG

>>8130 >it could be argued that animations are also a problem I don't see how since people strip out all the default rigging and pose and animate the custom anyway. >We were informed the model was created with photogrammetry. When I announced the removal of a post with Sherry Birkin featured, I feel I made it clear the decision was based on the photogrammetry issue and I have not personally seen anyone contesting it until now. If you have behind-the-scenes materials on the model's creation then please share them. I don't have the information but that other anon claims to. I'll notify him and see if he can provide you with proof. What I do remember is seeing pics Sherry's motion capture artist some time last year and she looked nothing like Sherry and I don't even think she is the same race. It was completely different than say Natalia who looks exactly like her motion capture actor.

>>8130 >One ping per minute would be background noise. One ping a second would be way too much. You probably don't need anything faster than that. I see, I'm currently calling the API every 15 seconds or so, I didn't think that was too much but still I wanted to ask. I might reduce the number of api calls per minute even further.

>>8123 >take it somewhere else. Man I wish I could just do that. The community of anons I like is only here; I tried to taking it somewhere else once but it's just not the same. I totally understand what you mean, but I firmly believe it's a cool idea and anons could get a lot of fun out of it.

>>>/v/827972 >>8130 >>8133 It seems I was wrong about Sherry's origins. RE2 Remake's Sherry Birkin was modeled after not one, but two real child models. Her face was modeled after Hannah Kincaid's (no picture available on internet), while her body was modeled after Shailee Namiki. https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Hannah_Kincaid https://residentevil.fandom.com/wiki/Shailee_Namiki https://www.mobygames.com/game/playstation-4/resident-evil-2___/credits https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp9tGgpBLhS/ Tough luck for /delicious/, I guess. Although it makes me wonder if ATF's staff believes that because it is a character modeled after 2 different people they are safe from the legal precedent they fear so much, or if they just don't know about these origins.

>>8136 >there's someone that's walking around in real life who's as ugly as REmake Sherry Well that's distressing. Hell is empty and all of the potatoes are here it seems.

appealing my /v/ ban here since itll take two days for anybody to look at the appeals page otherwise; i once again ask to either kick fagbitch off the team or change the default ban length to about an hour, since i wouldnt feel so put out about my post getting nuked by a retard if it didnt come with a week-long expulsion

>>8139 Well last time I called out retards for wanting the government to kill people I got banned for being a "fed". So now it's your turn to get banned for the opposite position. It's the law of /v/ moderation inconsistency.

>>8140 The law of /v/ moderation is 'someone reports a post and the whack-a-mole niggervols get the mallet out'. I miss the days when i could make reports while banned, so every time i was unjustly hammered i just flooded the report page with the same reason over and over, since the entire GG thread is as bad or worse than anything i've ever posted. I should test if i can report through redchannit in case i feel the need to do it again, remind tubby talmud that he doesn't need to go with every report that gets sent in. Won't help fagbot, though, he only looks at the report page once every three days so he won't notice it before jewboy mops it all up.

also on the off-chance that felbitch is actually lurking this thread and repealed the ban because of it, he's still doing that double ban bullshit and needs to crank back three times

>>8139 >fed >spam Every fucking time with these braindead cunts.

Just to keep everyone up to date, second ban was repealed. I can only assume globally reporting my own posts is what moved it forward and thus will do that again the next time feltwat bans me in like two more months.

>>8145 That's a known bug and not actually his fault. Bans sometimes just randomly double up.

>>8125 >Do you people ever stop to wonder why you're hated so much by people who would ordinarily be neutral bystanders? its no real mystery when pedo hysteria is something that only exists in feminized countries. the religious indoctrination responsible for your hate is no different than what the fags get and they aren't left wondering where the hate is coming from either. if you were raised in an ordinary environment rather than one riddled with feminist dogma then you wouldn't have felt the need to make this post thats for sure.

I need to test my hypothesis. Is it just me, or is there a sudden sharp drop of activity whenever Marks logs on and makes himself knowm? I notice that everyone basically fucks off or goes "oh shit it's him" into hiding or leaves until Mark goes elsewhere. That's kinda sad lmao, people like /v/ but not the BO. We need a >>>/vbunker/ to test that theory, I would die laughing if it became more active than regular /v/.

>>8155 I get banned all the time from various retarded mods and have never been "scared" off by Mark. Bans are meaningless while the anti-spam features are disabled and it takes 3 seconds to "ban evade". When Mark actually does his namefag thread derail shit most of the time people start asking him to blog post about his life. Another /v/ if ran properly would probably surpass cakejew's /v/, like fatchan's did, but that isn't really the problem. We already know everyone would prefer a better BO to Mark, but what we also know is that no one besides Mark is a big enough loser to be an internet janitor for an entire decade.

>>8155 >people like /v/ but not the BO. I don't like either of those.

redchannit.org is giving an >Invalid SSL certificate error speaking of this, I've been meaning to ask. Have you sat down to think about how the new tor measures impact the site's backup plans?

So, felbot's going insane in the /v/ meta thread, deleting posts and handing out unnecessarily long bans for pointing out his general incompetence and generally questioning his decisions. I already waiting a day for the first ban to expire without saying anything, but i'm not gonna wait ten for his current one to fade away without raising a complaint over it. Please remove his power and maybe also him from the mortal coil.

>>8167 Felbot is such a fucking retard

>>8168 He's also a desperate sex addicted alcoholic faggot with STD's

>>8155 There were numerous exodus boards made in response to Mark's shitty board moderation during 8chan Prime and these took off quite well, you had /v2/, /justvideogames/ and the most well-known being /svidya/. It would never work because the community of this site is small that you'd maybe get 10 UIPs at best.

>>8170 Is it THAT small? After Mark made it clear he welcomes any 4channer that can "behave himself", I've noticed a heavy uptick in cuckchan crossposting, right up to mocking the regulars with their lingo and posting soyjaks casually like it was nothing. It might just come down to the oldguard leaving or screaming at the mods all day while a whole new brand of users comes in and overtakes them completely, all while Mark just sits back and lets it happen for obvious reasons

>>8171 >Is it THAT small Yes. One look at the daily graph tells you all you need to know.

I gotta ask, why is the site in GMT time instead of murrican?

>>8173 The site is not only for americans

>>8177 Why would a site predominently used by North Americans and made by Americans be in Euro time?

Despite the fact this website is mostly used as a dumping ground for GARBAGE... it's actually still the best futaba imageboard on a technical level so good work for those who have done everything. And maybe the Spanish occupation will even end soon. Or is it a colonisation I don't know, me and my Incan friend had our lamas stolen by these foreigners.

Did you guys do something to get delisted from Google again...

>>8188 What the fuck does that have to do with this thread? Are you new or some shit? Every single time the mods do some stupid disagreeable shit on /v/ herdniggers raid the board to try and take advantage of the legitimate grievances some anons have to shit-stir. This has literally been happening since before 8moe even had its domain name. It happened on vch, it happened on 8kun, it happened on original 8chan, it happened on fucking fatchan. None of this is new. And none if it takes away from the fact that Mark and his mods routinely do stupid shit.

https://www.8chan.moe should redirect to https://8chan.moe it's currently broken

Hey Codexx, in June 1st will be the one year anniversary of the closing of hispachan.org, do you plan to put the CSS of >>>/hispachan/ or >>>/hisparefugio/ as global to commemorate the occasion?

>>8192 If you do some global spic shit I will commit 9/11 on this site.

How do I change my board from sfw to nsfw? I want to change my board to nsfw for a couple of days as an event.

>>8187 We're not delisted, because I can search directly and we do show up. They probably tweaked their algorithm again. The archive version shows up on DDG for your search. Let me look into it and see if there's anything we can do. >>8192 We have quite a few global CSS themes that were cloned from HispaChan so there's no shortage of options. I will try to remember to set a global theme this evening.

The change in CSS has been pretty unpopular on my board. Is there any way to make global CSS changes include an "okay, I've seen it, now put things back how they were before" option?

>>8192 Is this whats happening now? I don't mind if it only happen for 1 week but gotta inform my board >>8194 iirc email whoever grant you access to become BO in the first place. 2 weeks response time

>>8197 Individual users can select any theme they want from the dropdown at the top of the page. You can also upload the Yotsuba B CSS as custom CSS for your board if you'd like to override it there. >>8198 It is what's happening. It will only last about 24 hours. We also usually run the Vivian theme at the end of August in commemoration of GamerGate, and there's some birthday CSS we put up in late October. Currently those are the only three "event" themes.

>>8197 >>8199 Okay, after doing some testing, it seems like there's a bug in the theme JS that is improperly handling the case where a user has selected a new theme but there is both a global holiday theme and custom JS. Not sure how that slipped past. I'm going to undo the global CSS for the time being and see if we can't hotfix that one. Apologies to the hispas for cutting the even short.

>>8200 Thanks for looking into it. Usually with a new theme people laugh and either switch back to normal or get into the spirit of things and stick with it for the duration, but this time it wasn't an option and it raised a few hackles. My lads just really don't like change, bless them.

>>8201 Fucking with the default theme literally ALWAYS every single time without fail does nothing but piss people off. It's the most retarded nigger shit and every single time this retard does it there's some bug that makes it fucking impossible to even turn it off. I had to set fucking uBlock rules to block his gay nigger aids last time. How about you just don't do stupid spic meme themes faggot

>>8206 huh, it does, neat

Any word on when Tor users can post files again? This is becoming increasingly frustrating.

>>8209 It would be nice to be able to make threads again or post content. I'm basically just back to lurking, with occasional coments, at this point.

>>8210 The last time file uploads were enabled for Tor, a faggot used it as an opportunity to spam /v/ with hundreds of child models and CP.

>>8211 Isn't that what this new cookie tracking thing suppose to fix?

>>8208 I was just coming in here to check on that. We're halfway through the year...

Is there a reason that the spoiler tags have to be on the same line? Block spoilers would be nice.

>>8217 That's not how you make spoilers, you fucking retard.

>>8218 That is how you make spoilers. [spoiler] It just doesn't work like this. [/spoiler] [spoiler]Test Test[/spoiler]

>>8219 It's not that hard to just do *​*this*​* for each line break.

>>8220 But why is the software this retarded to begin with? Maybe there's an issue with the CSS, but I don't write CSS and wouldn't know. I don't see why the span tags in the resulting html couldn't span multiple lines. In fact, if I modify the page, it appears to work.

>>8221 Actually, I found it. Lynxchan processes the markdown tags in a post line-by-line. I don't know why. Possibly to limit the size of each regex search? https://gitgud.io/LynxChan/LynxChan/-/blob/master/src/be/engine/postingOps/common.js#L465

>>8216 I get the distinct impression that we are never going to get the functionality back. Not until someone launches another attack against the site that forces us off of clearnet again. Then the admins will remember how important Tor functionality is. It's really unfun posting on am imageboard in text only mode. You can't really participate in any board OC making activities. You can't really deeply engage in discussions because you you'll go >I'll just post some relevant thing I have saved relating to this conversation <OH WAIT I CAN'T! You can't make threads either on most boards because you have to include an image during thread creation. It's basically a quarter step up from just lurking.

We're working on bringing back Tor images. I'd have to ask Acid for a full list, but I'm pretty sure getting websockets working and some frontend server upgrades are both on the list of prerequisites. This will help minimize impact to users if CP is being spammed. We're really sorry for the delays. Life has been shitting on both Acid and I for some months now. I know for a fact he's been sick all weekend and still doesn't have hot water. We just want to be sure we're not making more work for Globals without giving them tools to combat it. Maybe he'd be open to scheduling file posting for Tor during set hours of the day when we have the most moderators available. That might be an acceptable stopgap until we can make the necessary upgrades.

>>8224 Whenever you can find time for it to answer, I sent an email asking about whether boards having custom javascript is still a feature for board owners to have uploaded. But after looking around on other boards, I have to assume this was revoked and I missed out on some news.

>>8225 It's available upon request. We have it limited so BOs are clear on what the rules are. If a BO is caught using custom JS to harm users to attack the site, then their privileges will be removed. The JS must not be obfuscated and you may not redirect users offsite, send any data offsite, attempt to deanonymize any users, nor attempt to view a user's browser data. If you're fine with all of that then e-mail me again with the name of the board you'd like custom JS on and I can enable it.

>>8224 Tor images matters a lot less to me than tor posting. The fact you find the time to apologize for that when tor itself was entirely fucked for months and barely said anything about it is hilarious.

>>8226 Alright, e-mail sent.

>>8227 Please understand it was a combination of not knowing when we'd have a good solution combined with not wanting to announce when it would be open season to spam. We didn't want to schedule Tor posting windows daily if we could help it. With TABS the situation is a bit different. I'm sorry for the lack to communication during that time. We like to be transparent but not when it risks making the problem worse.

>>8224 I appreciate that you are having difficulties and are under duress from a hand full of persistent and malicious spammers, but at the same time it is very frustrating. >Maybe he'd be open to scheduling file posting for Tor during set hours of the day when we have the most moderators available. That might be an acceptable stopgap until we can make the necessary upgrades. That might be a nice compromise until you can get things sorted out. > the most moderators available And also when the spammers are less likely to be active. They have to sleep some time and their spam isn't all bot managed either. Sorry that Acid is sick.

>>8229 >We like to be transparent but not when it risks making the problem worse. Why is my thread still locked then? I check back every day for that and for TOR file posting.

Hi, I'm /ac/'s owner, could you please make my board SFW again? thanks in advance.

>>8220 That would be different, as each spoiler would uncover separately. It's also unintuitive and unnecessary. >>8223 >Not until someone launches another attack against the site that forces us off of clearnet again I've been saying this for some time. It's pretty surprising how the stance has changed. >>8224 >Life has been shitting on both Acid and I for some months now. I know for a fact he's been sick all weekend and still doesn't have hot water Oh, yeah. Forgot he has also dealt with some pretty serious health issues. It's been a shit journey for us tor posters and I fucking hated not being able to even post for so long, but I hope you fags get well. >Maybe he'd be open to scheduling file posting for Tor during set hours of the day when we have the most moderators available. That might be an acceptable stopgap until we can make the necessary upgrades. Maybe TABS could be tweaked with an added 'intermediate' security level to recognize when a bypass is trusted in order to allow that torfag to post images. After all, if shit hits the fan and you enable TABS, that user (due to having a trusted bypass) would be allowed to get a new bypass and continue posting, so why not add an option to administrate image rights god that sounds fucking gay based on this as well. One cheap and dirty way to implement that would be if TABS could keep track of whether new bypasses are generated from a trusted bypass or from nothing (i.e. a new user). That way it's just about adding a simple check at the time of posting, probably very similar to what's already done now, instead of having to assess trustworthiness with every post which I imagine that wouldn't scale. This would also allow newfags to start posting even when this is active instead of being completely locked out until the next window when it's completely off. Basically in the worst case scenario it's the same situation that we're in right now (since TABS is off) but some more users would be allowed to post images, so it would be an overall improvement even if still fucking gay. This would be a temporary measure until you can finish working on your 5d spam combat strategies.

>>8233 We have to be a little careful in how we expand on TABS. The way its set up now it uses next to nothing in terms of resources. But if we expand its capabilities too much, or in the wrong ways, then it could become an attack surface for DDoS attacks as each "oldfag check" would use too much CPU power or too many database queries. It was deliberately built very light on overhead to make sure that didn't happen. We have room to add a little bit of functionality to it still, but we want to be careful and conservative about it. To add: This isn't really a big secret and anons are kinda asking around it, so here's the plan that I have in mind to upgrade the site's frontends. I want to replace the main frontend for .moe with a much more powerful server. One almost on par with the main backend. That server will use aggressive frontend caching to eliminate network latency in downloading and viewing files, but that's only the casual reason. The main reason is that I want it running an nginx daemon out in front of the caching engine that will handle both the websocket translation (fixing websockets) and a bot/scraper/DDoS detection page. This was something I had in mind for a long time, and if you've followed what Jewsh has been doing on Kiwifarms, his "kiwiflare" thing is almost verbatim the same idea. Except he missed one key part of it that I think I can do better. So the new frontend will be running two servers on it, and is meant to be highly DDoS resistant, so it needs CPU power and lots of memory to handle filtering for any kind of big attack. If we combine this system with the host CDN, we should have DDoS protection pretty comparable to what we had through Cloudflare before, only we will have full control over it. That not to say the host is bad at it - they've covered us from 3 or 4 significant DDoS attacks and done well, but they haven't been tested by a huge one yet and we've learned our lesson about leaving the site's fate in any service provider's hands.

>>8235 >as each "oldfag check" would use too much CPU power or too many database queries Right, perhaps you have a more complete view of what it would take since you're familiar with the software and I'm not but just to clarify, my idea was basically to add another column to whatever table stores the bypasses, which would be a boolean populated at the time of creating a bypass to signal whether a bypass was 'renewed', that is, generated from a trusted bypass. The bypass renew function must already know whether it's renewing a trusted bypass so populating that new column would be trivial. None of this so far would require any significant amount of new resources. Then at the time of posting, there must already be a bypass validation function which queries the previously mentioned table. it would just need to grab the new column but otherwise wouldn't change the cost of the query, so again, it wouldn't require any significant amount of new resources. This would need to be compared with the TABS security level, which I'm sure you can do without requiring a new query, probably using the same mechanism you're already using to update it in the bypass renew function. >I want to replace the main frontend for .moe with a much more powerful server That whole plan sounds like it'd take quite a bit of time, please see if you could prioritize the websockets so that we can have images again. It's fucking frustrating.

1) Is Redchannit permanently down? 2) Would you consider having a tirtiary domain name that doesn't use the 8chan brand? I ask this as I keep getting wordfiltered whenever I want to invite interesting people over here.

>>8237 >Would you consider having a tirtiary domain name that doesn't use the 8chan brand? but if they didn't trick people into thinking this is 8chan when its not like jim did for years then how on earth would they get anyone interested?

>>8237 https://redchannit.org/ works Speaking of: I don't know if it's supposed to work like this or not, but I cannot hotlink boards using redchannit. i.e. if type https://redchannit.org/v/ I am not redirected to /v/, but rather to 8chan's homepage. Could you fix this? And another thing, the captcha over /site/'s inner message box is fucked, it either gets stuck at 0 or refuses to accept any input.

>>8237 >2) Would you consider having a tirtiary domain name that doesn't use the 8chan brand? I ask this as I keep getting wordfiltered whenever I want to invite interesting people over here. THIS >>8239 Seconding the captcha thing also, please just use a single font rather than all of these weird ones, it's almost impossible to solve sometimes.

>>8237 >>8240 It's hilarious how much the 8chan name has only served to make this place harder to grow. Killing your community to own a retarded pig farmer that doesn't even know or care that you exist. What an epic pwnage.

>>8239 >the captcha over /site/'s inner message box is fucked, it either gets stuck at 0 or refuses to accept any input Check that the time on your PC or phone is the same as the time in your region on the internet. Lynxchan's captcha requires both times to be synchronised for the counter to work correctly, otherwise it will only give you a few seconds per captcha or it will mark any attempt as invalid. >>8240 >lease just use a single font rather than all of these weird ones The captcha uses different fonts to make it difficult for trained bots and pajeets to solve it.

niggers hurry up and make tor access functional for fuck sakes stop shitting your pants and cumming in your asshole whenever you see someone using tor

I think bans and how they work should be tweaked a bit. Acid should implement a hybrid feature or some js code where (if) a setting is ticked, you can see the board ban log analytics and reasons (for example /v/) in realtime for each 8chan boards own meta thread, without needing to open the log as its own page; as optional posts showing each new ban will be created automatically as the bans happen in real time. Think of this as a way to allow all 8chan boards the option of being more intentional with transparency and reports. This will demonstrate that they are confident in their jobs as moderators and can be willing to enable the system for further trust with their userbase. Thus, bridging the gap between moderation and anons, the most important reason for that feature is to establish good relations between mods and their anons, bans will not stop bad actors from being able to post outside a meta thread sure, but it could give rule abiding anons a chance to express themselves in good faith. Communication through an appeal is not good enough, lock the feature into text only mode if you need, so CP isn't spammed, but allow them to post their grievances in detail if feature enabled, implementing a 1 minute wait window for each new banned anon posting on the meta thread, as that sounds to be a good failsafe as well to prevent spam, setting expiry dates for each post is also another idea. I dunno, I just want this realized somehow. Good idea? Stupid idea? Let me know anons, your brutal honesty is always appreciated.

>>8245 >people should click the reply thread button instead of the logs button to see the logs Utterly fucking pointless to the point of being literal bloat.

>>8246 Merge meta threads and the board log to function in one page then, seems arbitraty to keep the two things separate when they are about the same thing, it'll be efficient instead of bloated.

>>8248 That would not be efficient, it would be nonsensical. Not every board is going to have a meta thread. Not every board owner is going to want a meta thread. The way the logs currently work is perfectly fine. There are about a million more important things those retards need to spend time developing.

>>8245 You are a fucking retard.

>>8250 This, just IP hop, the mods don't give a fuck about the anons they ban.

>>8245 This isn't really feasible. How would the engine know which thread is the meta thread for the board? How is a post in the meta thread any more informative than the logs? I do think the logs could be more complete, or at least easier to parse. I'm happy to take suggestions for a better log format or a way to increase transparency then I can work on that, but it needs to integrate well with how the backend operates.

I'd like to get >>>/fa/ whitelisted as a SFW board. How should I go about doing that?

8chan.se and 8chan.cc are both returning "Error 503 Backend fetch failed".

>>8254 Can you capcode on /fa/ stating you want it to be SFW? You can delete the post afterwards. Alternatively you can e-mail me at codexx [at] cock [dot] li from the address tied to your account. The toggle is by request, we just have to verify you're the board owner first. >>8255 .se is working for me. .cc is down and we're not sure when it will return because the resources used for it are being used to bolster other parts of our network.

>>8256 Done. Check the sticky.

>>8257 Your board has been marked SFW.

I need something explained: PPH is self explanatory, it's just how many posts are being made in the last hour. But what about Users? Does it count the amount of posts in a day or the amount of people who clicked on the board?

>fail a block bypass captcha <it automatically refreshes and lets your fill another out instantly >fail a report captcha <doesn't refresh automatically, blocks you from filling out another one for 10 seconds The fact reporting is so hostile to the user is destructive to the website. It's been years and this shit still hasn't been fixed. Stop making the moderation process like pulling fucking teeth.

>>5423 I was looking at the logs of /hispachan/ and discovered that Codexx is now the owner of the board. I don't care who takes charge, but I only request the following: 1. Make the meta thread (>>>/hispachan/123184) cyclic so that others can continue posting there normally. 2. Edit the aforementioned meta thread clarifying that most anons are now in >>>/hisparefugio/. I've seen a few people who don't know how to use the chan, not even to check the boards list, and they believe that the drop in activity is because the others moved to another chan or some bullshit like that, so it would not hurt to make that clear (and if possible, that the text is highlighted in some way). If you consider it necessary, you can also add the reasons why you now manage the board. 3. Remove the following lines from the default CSS: #navTopBoardsSpan { display: none; } #navTopBoardsSpan span {visibility:hidden;} #navBoardsSpan {visibility:hidden;} Context: When NegaZeta noticed that >>>/hisparefugio/ began to have a considerable activity, the asshole's anus flared up and he had no better idea than to hide the list of boards from the top bar in a pathetic and desperate attempt to avoid user leakage (believe it or not, there seems to be hispachaners who are too lazy and/or stupid to change the default theme). 4. Disable the filter that changes hisparefugio to hispachan. The reason why he put that shit is the same as the previous point. I don't know if there are other filters besides that one (and the global ones), but if so, I could tell you if it is worth keeping them. 5. Deactivate the "maximum bump age". With the slowness of the board, it is harmful to continue maintaining that limit. 6. Recategorize the board as NSFW, since there is always a subnormal who uploads an image or video of that type without spoiler (either accidentally or on purpose). That should be enough to fix all the whole shitty mess that NegaZeta left before he went to buy cigarettes and disappear until someone comes along who wants to take over the board (assuming it will be transferred to someone in the future).

>>8264 I took over the board only as an intermediary step to process the claims received for the board, in hopes of discouraging further claim requests. After speaking with all claimants, the board will be liquidated and its threads moved to various other boards, with refugio chief among them. A post will be made on the board shortly detailing the plan and directing users to refugio. I will reset the custom CSS to one of the global defaults. Everything else is a bit redundant since the board will be locked soon.

>>8259 It's the amount of unique IPs that posted on the board in a certain interval of time.

Could you leave >>>/hispachan/ open for a couple more days? I would like to comment some things in the pinned thread, in addition to posting in other threads that surely will not be transferred to >>>/hisparefugio/ due to their "old age".

>>8268 Okay. A couple more days won't hurt anything.

>>8269 Thank you very much, and from what I understand later the board will remain as read-only along with the threads that could not be moved to other boards like a museum, is that correct?

>>8270 Correct. I do not like deleting content, and deleting the board would just wipe it out needlessly and then leave the board name up for claims to whoever makes it first. If any of the other boards would like a thread then their board owners are encouraged to reach out and request a transfer. I will leave the meta post pinned to the top with links to refugio. I have also altered the banner. Hopefully that makes it clear to anyone wandering in late that the community can be found at refugio. I don't want to lose any stragglers in the shuffle.

If at all possible, could you start deleting some dead, 0-posts boards that have also been abandoned by their creators? More specifically: /4/ - Kiedy 3 to za mało *Abandoned* /lfd/ - Lainforo Development *Abandoned* /c9f9e9f2/ - c9f9e9f2 *Abandoned* /bp/ - Based Pill Chan *Abandoned* /nedernatsoc/ - nedernatsoc *Abandoned* /vichansoftware/ - Vichan Development Information *Abandoned* /bakemono/ - bakemono *Abandoned* /ilpazz5d5f4f89ff21f1d2d5/ - ilpazz *Abandoned* /fsjdfziunbfliznbcfkznmizomiskmfk/ - test *Abandoned* /lamps/ - Lempsi *Abandoned* /andrutorrez/ - andrutorrez *Abandoned* /4/ - Kiedy 3 to za mało *Abandoned* /peepingtom/ - peeping tom *Abandoned* /ml/ - Machine Learning *Abandoned*

Question. Is /hispachan/ still available for claiming? I have an idea to put it to good use for "negros" instead leaving dead, taking advantage of its popularity without dividing the community or competing with /hisparefugio/, now that I was able to confirm my account.

>>8274 There are three claimaints in front of you and, per my discussions, it's looking like the BO of refugio is going to take custodianship of it for the sake of holding onto it. If you'd like to propose a plan and they're okay with it being unlocked and handed over to you then I can facilitate that, but right now the plan is to turn it into an archive. >>8273 We've discussed doing it for years and just haven't gotten around to it. I think abandoned + 0 posts is clearly okay, so I'll try to go through this weekend and clear them out. We'll probably delete some long-abandoned boards with a handful of posts at some point. We just never nailed down how few posts a board can have to be up for deletion.

good morning sirs. how do i renew my account of 8chan extremity?

>>8276 You must redeem the extreme.

>>8277 >>8276 good morning sers, i am from india my village in bombay not have any food to eat if i buy extremity plz sirs how can i get for free??? i cannot redeem sers or else i have no foods to eat for me and my village

The .moe domain is down apparently. But .se is still working.

Where did /2dblacked go? Also, could you re-open it for a couple days or something?

>>8280 Looks like the BO quit and gave the board to someone who tricked him and just deleted it. Get owned.

Compiling stuff that came from several discussions over /v/: 1) Implement a secondary domain name for 8chan that has NO BEARING on the 8chan brand example of names: Infinitychan, Fullchan, 4plus4chan or whatever that specifically contains only SFW frontpage, overboard and boards, in a similar manner to what 4chan does with its SFW frontend. Make it so it can also be searched off of Google, unlike current 8chan, and appending the name of a NSFW board automatically redirects you to 8chan proper; 2) Prevent users from deleting their own boards - whenever they hit the Delete Board button, they're booted out of their administrative page and the board is put on Probation - to let users download whatever content was left on it. If no one comes forward to request ownership of the abandoned board, then it gets deleted. This is to prevent situations where a malicious user grabs ownership of a board just to delete it all, which I guess can still happen by manual deletion of each thread, but with the proper autism you can always restore deleted threads; 3) Reintroduce site-wide advertising, i.e. the Board Hunger Games from 8kun, in order to give visibility to niche boards who wish to participate; 4) Rework boards visibility: when an user is browsing a SFW board like /v/ or /hisrol/, do not list NSFW boards on their board list. Whenever an user is browsing NSFW boards, list all of the top boards on the site. Make this something that an individual user can toggle on or off, so that less squeamish users can just see the top boards list as it currently is; 5) Instead of keeping around dozens of dead boards, delete any board that: - Has been around for a month from its board creation with 0 TOTAL posts (as in, the user created it and then left it like that). OR - Has been abandoned for a few months without a single new post (obviously, before deleting it, advertise it for a week asking for a new board owner, so if someone is interested in its content can still scrape it or even revitalize it) This would already cull the total number of available boards quite a bit, letting new users create new boards for their preferred topic and clearing some much needed resources; 6) Implement language filtering: when a new user connects to the website, whether it's from the home page or the board he's browsing, he should be able to toggle between International boards (the site as it is now) and picking the specific language of the boards he's interested in - this would prevent the huge amount of Spanish boards clogging up your feed on the home page and overboard when you do not speak the language, similarly Latin American anons who don't care about the main English boards can live off in their own microcosm. Additionally, you could use location data for the connecting user to automatically load their specific language pack - again, letting users toggle whether they want the English website or a specific language. You could even put this info on the Splashscreen, so other than just clicking on the I Accept The Risk link they also get to choose how they load the board's language. Defaults to English of course. Please, reply to this message. We sorely need new blood to keep the site working, and the lack of visibility is killing it.

Whatever happened to the page a thread is on being displayed within the thread right by the post count/UID count/file count stats?

>>8282 >1) Implement a secondary domain name for 8chan that has NO BEARING on the 8chan brand example of names: Infinitychan, Fullchan, 4plus4chan or whatever that specifically contains only SFW frontpage, overboard and boards, in a similar manner to what 4chan does with its SFW frontend.

This is to prevent situations where a malicious user grabs ownership of a board just to delete it all, which I guess can still happen by manual deletion of each thread, but with the proper autism you can always restore deleted threads; Eh, Codexx restores boards when they are deleted maliciously. Just email him. Kind of a non-issue, but you could create a system to streamline it I guess. >3) Reintroduce site-wide advertising, i.e. the Board Hunger Games from 8kun, in order to give visibility to niche boards who wish to participate; Yeah, but admins are too lazy. >- Has been abandoned for a few months without a single new post (obviously, before deleting it, advertise it for a week asking for a new board owner, so if someone is interested in its content can still scrape it or even revitalize it) Problem is that the site is so dead that there are a lot of boards with plenty of good content that are like this. If the site was a lot more active it would be easier to do that. >Please, reply to this message. We sorely need new blood to keep the site working, and the lack of visibility is killing it. I mean all anyone would say is "we're working on stuff". I've made similar suggestions for the site years ago that still have yet to be implemented. I requested basic word blocking to StephenLynx directly like the first month this site went up and it still doesn't exist. The development of features is completely dependent on an unhinged hue monkey tranny. I don't think Codexx or Acid push any code that is related to core site functionality.

>>8281 >>8280 Even if this were true a backup still exists. Could you reup /2dblacked for a couple days? Please and thank you.

You niggers, with addition of "accept the site rules goy" crap you fucked my browsers shit up, it doesn't work in Firefox 115 unless I either create new profile or delete browser cache which is =ALL WEBSITES-WIDE= deleting only 8chan cookies/ctrl+f5 doesn't help I aint doing that, fix your shit ass code https://streamable.com/by863n

>try to create thread through Tor >fail captcha a few times >FLOOD DETECTED >come back later and try to post again >NOT ALLOWED TO POST FILES THROUGH TOR >ok, remove the file then >THREADS NEED AT LEAST 1 FILE What the fuck is this cancer?

>>8269 I think you can close /hispachan/ now.

>>8280 >>8286 Fuck off to sturdychan, nigger.

>>8288 I think the BO's determine whether or not thread creation requires a file. So you could ask the BO to let threads without files be made.

>>8288 I think a message for the thread opening form would be useful. IIRC 8prime noticed if the thread required a file before sending the request.

add support for .jxl and .avif thanks

Could you possibly change the PPH-Users data on the Boards List page, as it's kind of misleading? I'd rather you showed PPH, renamed Users to Posts Per Day (since that's what the actual data is tracking) and, if at all possible, add Users as the amount of different IPs browsing that particular board.

>>8296 This but I'd rather have Posts Per Day or Posts Per Week instead, since the board is pretty slow most of the time, so most boards display a dead zero almost every time.

Hello, could we get the board /fanfic/ to be whitelisted as a Safe For Work board?

>>8224 So when's the ETA on this? >>8288 It's so fucking frustrating. >>8293 Well that option should be changed globally right now, for as long As Tor posters can't post files.

>>8300 there is no global setting to change. Its a BO decision. You should ask the BO of the board your using to change it.

>>8301 >there is no global setting to change Well maybe there should be one since disabling Tor file posting conflicts with that and causes unintended behavior in that Tor posters can't post create threads now.

>>8303 Why should a BO be forced to let people make text only threads if he doesn't want them on his board? That's retarded.

>>8304 Well now Tor posters cant make threads at all on most boards. That's pretty retarded too.

>>8307 If the BO agrees with your issue then he can simply change the setting. If the BO doesn't want TOR posters being able to make threads then he can leave it the way it is. BO's should have ultimate agency over their boards.

>>>/v/859208 Post collapsing/expansion shits the bed when it involves code blocks.

I didn't get a reply via tor in the /v/ meta thread for half a day so i'll bring it up here: Fuckbitch banned me for three days for fucking nothing, and then he got so assblasted he went and banned me again and deleted a bunch of shit in the old GG thread, none of which i can screencap since i closed it already. Please violently massacre him, for the good of us all.

>>8313 This is probably why

>>8314 Felbot REALLY doesn't like zzzchan

>>8314 None of that's me, my man, i'm a single IP clearnet good boy, which is why bans piss me off so much. Hell, i got a (9) [now (10)] on this thread from previous complaints about fuckboi. Unless you mean 'mods flip out and ban unnecessarily', in which case that makes them shitty mods and they shouldn't be mods no more. Par for the course with tubby talmud, but still.

>>8316 So then you're good. Just evade the ban and stop bitching about it.

>>8315 To be fair, he only bans them when they try to start board wars.

>>8317 i dont ban evade though you blind nigger do you not into reading comprehension? if i did i wouldnt even be complaining; fuck, if the ban was just like six hours id sit it out, but three days if a bridge too far, and getting double banned is insult to injury >>8315 i mean ill be honest i dont even use zzzchan, but the mabi guild that started here back in 2018 had a thread there and i felt obliged to link it, since i dont actually HATE zzz either and would rather we were all together on one site again

>>8319 Can't you like just switch your IP?

>>8319 but yeah, I agree that three days is too long. Just tell me that you want a reduced sentence, tell me what you were banned for, and I'll look into it.

>>8321 I mean, they're both there in my screencaps but i guess i'll paste it so you can look for them using the timestamp. I'll also add that jewboi denied my first appeal, didn't get around to appealing the second one. Maybe add a page where you can view your bans or something, i only get to see one at a time so i can only copy that one when i try to post. Type: Ban User: Felbot Board: v Time: 07/17/2023 (Mon) 09:42:05 User Felbot banned the posters of the following posts: 859100 from board /v/ until Thu Jul 20 2023 09:42:05 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time) with reason "spam". Type: Ban User: Felbot Board: v Time: 07/17/2023 (Mon) 17:34:32 User Felbot banned the posters of the following posts: 859146 from board /v/ until Fri Jul 21 2023 17:34:32 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time) with reason "spam". Ban ID : 64b50ced6ce9d10e15bdfa0c Also, don't forget to check for double bans, as tend to happen when flickdick goes on a rampage.

>>8322 Alright, I unbanned you this time. but I can understand why you were banned for a day

>>8323 A day, maybe, but not three, not twice, i made a hard valid point, and i don't give a shit what anybody says, i wanna fuck this animu. Now, if you'll pardon me, i need to go make a horrendous shitpost in the lounge thread (assuming the unban took, anyhow; i always need to court hubris).

National socialism isnt a meme. There are in fact many adherents of the political philosophy, and it isn't fedposting. I know you want to think its all a joke mark. But it isnt. And treating it as a meme or as anons as feds is retarded.

>>8319 >since i dont actually HATE zzz <actively went out of his way to delete and ban the mere mention of a zzzchan guild in the MMO thread <deleted a cross-site game night thread for zero reason that had no animosity in it You are single unironically like a carbon copy of Mark, it's uncanny. You'll just bold face lie constantly to save face. It's no wonder Mark still keeps you around after he's had to reverse like 20 of your bans.

>>8326 I'm the guy who got banned, not felcunt. I'm best known for being the garyc/sketch poster, second best for being Brobdingnagian from Age of Wushu and Lifle from Mabipro. How ya doin'?

>>8313 >Has spam on his post >Gets banned for spam <Complains he got banned for spam You are a nigger

>>8328 Deleting it is one thing, banning me for three days over a dead fucking website's meme picture without looking at the (17) posts of mine in the thread to tell that i'm no drive-by spammer is another. Felbot is the niggest and has been probably forever; i can only imagine how hard he's fellating mark to not get kicked off by now.

>>8329 I remember when the Hispachan admin used to give permanent bans because you slighly suggested the name of a different imageboard on your post. Stop being a whinning bitch and as the other guy pointed out just ban evade, but since you also posted the same picture with the Ib's name on the URL I'd assume your post wasn't legitimate. Again, stop being a nigger.

>>8330 >we cant possibly admit that other sites exist and doing so is a fat jew court martial or a spic summary execution That sounds like some grade A retarded petty bullshit; it's also what halfchan does since i'm pretty sure '8chan' is still filtered there. If this site is better than others than you should have confidence in it, and if it's so shit that people leave it just by knowing other sites exist then you need to get your shit in gear, one of those gears being either not banning for more than like an hour since everyone but me ban evades anyhow and they'd just jump IP immediately, or looking at post history to see if they're a one and done ip hopper like you seem to be.

>>8332 There's is a difference between organically discussing other websites and having a generic spam picture that contains a link specifically designed to get around the word filters sites usually have in place you fucking retard. Of all the the absolutely nigger tier retard shit felbot does this is the one you decide to throw a fit over? Fucking kill yourself dumbfuck.

>>8333 I didn't even say 'hey heres a site you should go and visit it sir', i was using it as an example of places that fucking died, and i had it saved because i like the meme and i like the girl. My only regret, now that i'm unbanned and we all agree that felbitch is a retarded faggot except the bitch himself and his (1) clone army, is i went and checked and turns out the site ISN'T dead like i thought it was. Maybe if i had the spacechan derpy girl saved i would have used that instead.

>>8334 > i was using it as an example of places that fucking died <Come here to visit [imageboard I want to spam] <B-But I didn't know it wasn't dead OKAY!!! Why are you so dishonest? not only that but we can clearly see you are bullshitting from the stuff you posted. If you are going to try to fool anyone at least make the littlest effort to cover it.

>>8335 I'm completely honest, and you can ascertain my genuine nature by my not being an ip-hopping faggot and my posts, at least in this thread, going back months. I can't trust constant arguments from a (1), especially not in this darkened corner of the site where there wouldn't be this many casual passersby all collectively disagreeing with me.

>>8336 Then if you are honest you should realize that your post looks awfully like spam and any mod would treat it as such. Good faith suggestion: If you are talking about an external IB, then don't assume anybody knows its lore; I didn't connect you posted the 28chan mascot as an example of your post because I don't know anything about that imageboard, if I were a /v/ mod I would've seen an unrelated spam pic made for filter evading with an unrelated post so I would've banned you. You argued the ban was too long; which I agree, then you mentioned the mod should've look up your post history which I agree too, but now you are saying you shouldn't have been banned at all, which I disagree for everything I've already mentioned and I think anybody would have banned you. > I can't trust constant arguments from a (1) I'm >>8330 >>8328 I clean my cookies so my IDs changes, nevertheless you are talking to at least other three guys right now. I don't really understand the (1) meme since there's way more lurkers than posters in any place. It's pretty common that just someone pop out of nowhere into the conversation.

>>8337 I never said i shouldn't have been banned, just that three days is too long, fuckbot is a shitbitch and needs to take a hot lead aspirin, that i wasn't promoting another website, but also that it seems really small-minded to get nuked for mentioning another site, doubly so since, again, it was in snide derision of the other fucker. If you really agree that fuckbot should have looked into the posts then i'm right, he was in the wrong, and there's nothing more to discuss on the matter other than maybe his public flogging to teach him a lesson for like the fifth time already. I suppose some people might be skimming the overboard for recent posts, i usually forget it's a thing; the (1) meme is ID hoppers trying to pretend they're different people, to make it seem like one viewpoint has more vocal supporters than there actually are.

>>8338 >that i wasn't promoting another website but it looks like. Again, avoid that in the future.

>>8339 Whats the issue with promoting other websites? I dont see any global rules against it. Or even any local rules. I don't understand why that warrants a ban.

>>8340 He wasn't globally banned. And there is nothing inherently wrong with promoting other websites. But people doing it in bad faith tend to use images to get around word filters, which is what it looked like he was doing. I don't know why this is even being discussed at length. It was obvious why he got banned even if it was accidentally interpreted as bad faith when he was just innocuously posting something that sort of presents as spam alongside a normal post. This is the most boring ban ever to sit here and analyze, especially when it was already revoked. Who the fuck gives a shit. Someone bring Kazu back so we can have real spergouts over shit.

>>8339 It looks that way to retarded autismos who can't into context, ie when i'm talking about all the websites that died. If i had added no text whatsoever, or if i had flat out said 'OI CUNT COME ON DOWN TO 76CHAN!', then yeah, sure, that's promoting other sites, but if it's a fucking meme image with obvious mockery of the subject matter, then you should rub your chin and go 'theres no way hes seriously inviting people to this site'. If i say 'i sure do want to eat some fucking babies', your reaction should initially be incredulous since it's an absurd statement that nobody would say seriously, not to ban the motherfucker because HOLY FUCK THIS GUY IS A CHILD-MURDERING CANNIBAL JUST LIKE JONATHAN SWIFT!

Never even visited this board before, but I figure this is the thread to complain about the SJW board owner of /co/. It's not enough that he'll ban people for pointing out (by just citing the show itself) that shows he likes are SJW or otherwise shit (especially Avatar), but I just got a ban on there for "ban evasion" because two or more people agreed that a particular guy was a retard for being okay with the raceswapped Lois Lane tv show because he likes girls with short hair. BO or some jannie decided this must be "niggerpill" samefag arguing with himself (admittedly, one of the posters did seem like niggerpill or the like, but others were clearly not). When I posted again and pointed out the idiocy, he gave me a ban for ban evasion, despite never being banned. This stupid motherfucker can see IPs. He knows he banned one and thinks that the other not being banned means ban evasion, instead of just that not everyone he disagrees with is samefag. This is one of the bigger boards on the site, and was one of the bigger boards on previous sites, but it's being hampered significantly by an SJW board owner that bans people for disagreeing with his opinions on cartoons, and is too inept to even do that right. I never even complain about Mark, as far as I'm concerned he's reasonably hands off, but this is fucking ridiculous. Something needs to be done. The site would be much better off if /co/, a major legacy board, wasn't run by some SJW retard whose goal is apparently just to defend SJW shit and stop people from criticizing it.

>>8344 >This stupid motherfucker can see IPs. BO's can't see IP's. > I never even complain about Mark, as far as I'm concerned he's reasonably hands off, Lmfao. >Something needs to be done. The site would be much better off if /co/, a major legacy board, wasn't run by some SJW retard whose goal is apparently just to defend SJW shit and stop people from criticizing it. Make a competing board if you think you can moderate it more fairly. Removing BO's because they ban a lot of people they don't like is completely antithetical to the entire point of 8chan. The site is designed to be a free market of imageboards. Literally the only reason Mark has the biggest video game board is because no one else has competed with him properly. Legacy board URI's are meaningless with this level low level activity.

>>8344 My theory is that /co/'s BO mistook you for the spammer who flooded the thread because you both made comments about how the show is "SJW bullshit" and gave you a ban for it, but I'd like to hear his side of the story before jumping to conclusions.

>>8344 Honestly, if you don't like the way the current /co/ board owner is running things, just make another board. Unlike /v/ which is a sacred cow, even though I'm fairly sure Mark is taking a lot more breaks and making his mods do all the job for him, secondary boards are completely expendable. Just look at the Hispanic boards or the vore board. They are offshoots of their original iterations because the mods were incapable of keeping the users engaged. >>8313 I agree with this anon, although his case is iffy and maybe done in bad faith, the post genuinely doesn't look like advertisement to me. If anything, linking to smaller, dead imageboards could actually be beneficial to us - if they advertise here, but ban us when we advertise there, they have no right to complain if they get banned on sight; if we both advertise on each other's imageboard, then the smaller imageboard is inevitably going to lose to the larger one.

8ch.moe is unreachable, but 8ch.se can still be accessed I also want to notify you on a glitch I found: whenever I want to make a post on /site/ using .moe, the counter for the captcha is stuck at 0, whereas it works fine with .se

It seems a bunch of rapefugees from soyjak party set up the board >>>/soy/ after their admins were outed as pedophiles, I don't think they should be allowed here due to the fact they spent so long spamming this site with their trash because they hate loli and view 2D as CP.

>>8358 Seethe, cope, and dilate, faggot. >board creation for me but not for thee!!!!!!!!!!!!! malding nigger

>>8358 So we can't have Tor fileposting but the faggots that caused some of the spam that got the fileposting revoked are going to be allowed on this site? Nah fuck that. Tell them to hit the road. or is this going to be another /hebe/ situation where you allow the problem to linger until it does damage to the site and anon population?

>>8342 You keep saying you are a legitimate anon but you can't look at it from the mod's point of view: You have to check 100 reports per day, of course you don't have enough time to check every single post's contexts; that's how this things happen. >>8344 Frank is one of the biggest faggots on the site and pretty much everybody agrees that he can't handle stuff on /co/ and he bans people for posting the way he doesn't like. It's a shame because there are very few comic and cartoons related boards. As the other guy said just go ahead and make a /co/ alternative (people has been asking for an alternative on the gg thread for a while) or just check the other comic and cartoons related on 8chan: >>>/edit/ >>>/rcl/ and >>>/ac/ specially the last one, since they are fluent in English so you won't have trouble engaging in discussions.

>>8362 >100s of reports per day Maybe. On a bad day. maybe 30 reports locally on /v/ per day. 99% of which are "this guy made me look silly and beat me in a debate. ban him" which you can ignore and dismiss. Leaving a very small fraction of actual reports that have to be handled. Clicking "post history" takes less than a second. Determining whether an anon has shown up only to start shit or if hes organically partaking in conversations will take maybe 60 seconds. So you have maybe 3 minutes per day you would have to spend doing the job, and your excuse is "I dont have that kinda time." which is an obvious bullshit lie you made to save face on sucking at an easy job. Try harder.

>>8363 The Moderation Defense Force is quite active here. I imagine it's a result of being the kind of person who can adapt to posting on a board owned by Mark; you'd have to become an expert at mental gymnastics and cognitive dissonance.

>>8359 You're not exactly all that subtle, jackass. If you want take issue with this shit quit acting like a cuckchan nigger if you want a start in invading the site and flooding it with CP and other bullshit you did back in your own crap hole.

>>8365 You don't decide what the rules are here.

Would it be possible to whitelist German IPs again?

>>8367 >barebacking imageboards Retard

>>8368 Some of the places my VPN connects are German and it sucks not being able to use them

>>8369 Nigger what? What kind of VPN doesn't let you choose the exact node you're using? Stop using shitty honeypot VPN's retard and get mullvad.

Exactly how long does it take for a board to become abandoned?

>>8376 21 days.

>August >still can't post images if you're on Tor Yes. This place is doing great indeed.

>>8379 Blame the pedos

>>5423 Still waiting for >>>/fanfic/ to get whitelisted as a SFW board

>>8380 So what the hell was the point of the whole TABS system if Tor is just going to remained gimped forever?

>>8382 We can still post using TOR but no image uploads. It's better than no TOR at all.

>>8382 There was no point to the TABS system because every time he turns it on it just kills the fucking site, because surprise surprise, 80% of anons aren't brain dead retards that don't erase their cookies routinely. And the TABS system wouldn't even address malicious CP posting anyways. It only addresses spam attacks. If Acid wanted to only deal with CP spam from TOR nodes he would just reactively disable TOR files during times of CP spam from said nodes. Acid simply has no fucking clue what he's doing. He literally just forgot that he had TOR posting turned off for like a month.

>>8384 God I wish this site was not on this downward spiral. It's gradual but it's real and I hate that it's happening.

>>8385 Google and co. were destined to take over the internet forever. Anything that goes against Them was never meant to last. All hail Woke.

>>8386 Where did this dollar store niggerpill come from? I want the real one back. She put in way more effort.

Who is the Board Owner of >>>/jp/ ? Is there a way to contact them?

>>8388 If he doesn't have a public mail, then post on his meta thread. If he doesn't have a meta thread just open one.

What did Parias transfer ownership of >>>/interracial/ The previous BO is claiming this was a hostile/malicious takeover of his board. Either confirm or dispute this information please. It sounds like he's just talking out of his ass and I suspect he was a bad actor, but I'd like an official comment.

>>8390 Since Parias did the transfer, I would recommend waiting until he has a chance to reply. However, based on a conversation I had with him last week, I would assume the previous BO was not acting on reports or performing janitorial duties. Has he checked his e-mail? We will always reach out to a BO before reassigning their board.

>>8391 Based on what the BO said in the GG thread, he was essentially squatting the board and doing the bare minimum to "maintain" it. But also based on what he said the admins made no effort to complain to him about how he was running the board by posting on it and asking him to handle it better. And he also claims that the board was transferred before the ownership expired, which can be confirmed by looking at the logs where he dismissed reports recently. Even if it was obvious that he didn't care about the board and was letting its quality go to shit, it's not right for a BO to lose a board when the admins make no real attempt to warn him about it. Even if he's a bad actor.

>>8392 Please see above >We will always reach out to a BO before reassigning their board. Has he checked his e-mail? I will poke Parias but he usually gets home late. If he wants to e-mail me from the address on his account I can return the board in the interim, pending a discussion with Parias. But he needs to get in contact with us directly. Sooner is better. codexx@cock.li and he should include his username.

>>8390 >>8392 The board was completely unmoderated outside of globals. In the entirety of 2023, the old BO has made exactly one moderation action that was not just closing reports, while the globals were cleaning up posts or threads every day or two. He also had zero local volunteers. I sent the BO an email at the end of July and informed him that this was a problem, recommended adding a volunteer that the globals had found, and told him that neglect of his board at this level would result in losing it. I gave him a deadline of 2 days to respond or make any kind of action, such as recruiting a volunteer from his board's users. I extended that to 4 days after I heard nothing back, then finally decided it was time to offer the board to the volunteer.

>>8393 >Has he checked his e-mail? He claimed to have never received an email. But even then, a more realistic way to contact a BO is to capcode on his board. As someone who has held a board for a year is not likely to check their board email often, if ever. And there was no capcode complaint on the board at any point as far as I'm aware. >>8394 Like I said, emails are pointless. 99% of BO's are going to just have a dedicated throwaway email they never check, especially for an account/board that old. If you don't make an effort to contact them on the board itself then it's obviously an attempt to brush you contact under the rug so you can replace them. In this isolated instance it wasn't that offensive because the BO was squatting and shit, but it sets precedent for how you deal with BO's and how you went about it was clearly subversive at best. If you're going to replace BO's based on quality curation then make a rule stating that.

>>8395 A lot of board owners have expressed a dislike for us capcoding on their board, and e-mails are both a requirement for board creation and the easiest way to be sent report notifications. It makes it naturally the best way to reach out. We have no problem with BOs having a throwaway address they just use for the board, but it's on them if they miss any communications or lose their password or whatever else can be resolved via e-mail identification. He can reach out and we can try to find a solution. He can reply to Parias' e-mail and CC me.

>>8396 Nah, that's fucking stupid and you know it. If you're going as far as transferring the board after 4 days of not responding to an email then in what world would it matter if you capcoded on their board? You clearly despise them enough as a board owner to give them less than a week to respond to an email after 8 months of no contact. Are you going to seriously pretend like you wouldn't capcode on the board out of "respect" in that scenario? Stop being retarded. BO's should not be able to lose their boards without an admin capcoding on their board at least a month in advance. >He can reach out and we can try to find a solution. He can reply to Parias' e-mail and CC me. I don't care about this individual BO. He's a fucking retard. I are about the process for which boards are transferred. The way this board was transferred was fucking stupid and it is not the way future boards should be transferred in similar contexts. No BO should have to constantly check a dead empty email that they only use for this site to know if they are suddenly going to lose their board despite logging in weekly for a year. Get real faggot, fucking capcode on peoples boards if they are on the verge of losing it.

Everybody is wrong, nobody is right. How one BO is handled, be him retarded, a bad actor, or otherwise, sets a precedent for all BOs. I can't see how somebody who regularly logs into their board, no matter how small or shitty, gets rugpulled for not checking an email after a few days and the fact that nobody from the admin team capcoded on the board to try to each out because "it's rude" or whatever isn't an answer. If you're going to do a board transfer then people are going to find out anyways when the new guy announces his presence. Have all the other BOs been informed about this new way of dismissing an owner? Can you be sure they know unless they answer an email? Will anybody capcode on their board to let them know or is that rude? If somebody goes to the admins and wants to claim a board from someone who only logs in and reads reports, is the BO going to be tossed because some plucky up-and-comer wants to develop the digital real estate to increase activity? Why was this even an issue in the first place?

>>8398 You write like a retard and it's annoying

>>8399 youre are a stupod

>>8394 >In the entirety of 2023, the old BO has made exactly one moderation action that was not just closing reports >He also had zero local volunteers I'm a BO and I haven't made a single moderation action in 2023 since my board is slow as shit. There are also no janitors for my board. Should I be concerned? >I sent the BO an email at the end of July and informed him that this was a problem The email I used to create my board was only used for that, as good practice would dictate. Since my board barely has any activity these days, that email has even less. You really can't expect people to keep track of every single dead disposable email they create nigger, and honestly this shouldn't really be a factor when making a simple post on their board would clear up any possible misunderstanding. >>8395 It's pretty tiring because we already had this conversation before and people asked the same thing. I was hoping they would have gotten the hint. >>8396 >A lot of board owners have expressed a dislike for us capcoding on their board You can't really say you care about that when you were considering deposing the BO in the first place nigger. >but it's on them if they miss any communications It's really frustrating that you would take that path instead of the most intuitive one. It is not a requirement to be a good and effective BO to check an email, it is to check your board.

>>8395 >Like I said, emails are pointless. 99% of BO's are going to just have a dedicated throwaway email they never check That sounds like a personal problem. If you signed up with a throwaway account, and you didn't receive a message from the admins because you don't have access to said throwaway account, that's on you.

>>8402 No, that's a fucking reality problem faggot. If you want it to be known that unless you're dogmatically checking an email that may or may not receive anything for years you might randomly lose access to your board then people are going to be less incentivized to use this site and create communities here. That is a serious problem you retarded fuck. Access to the email is irrelevant. If an admin used a capcode to tell the BO to check his email that would be fine. You can't read because you're an illiterate faggot. But sure, let's create an environment where people are even more hesitant to use and contribute to the site. I'm sure that won't cause it to be even more dead than it already is.

>>8403 >If you want it to be known that unless you're dogmatically checking an email that may or may not receive anything for years you might randomly lose access Where have you been for the past 30 years?

I need to report something clicking on the "Feedback" option on the Home page redirects to a non existent >>>/site/27 thread. Perhaps it should just link to >>>/site/ proper?

>>8405 Probably predates the reorganization. I'll fix it in the next update. Thanks for pointing that out.

Hey Codex, I tried to send you a mail a couple of days ago but you haven't responded yet, you alive or what?

>>8408 Uh oh, Codexx didn't check his email for a few days. Looks like he gets to lose access to his website now.

I am not sure if this is the right place to suggest this, but what if we changed the way banned countries see the website? As in, with the exception of China (who just sends bots anyhow), how about making it so people connecting from Russian, German or Israeli IPs can still view and post on the site, but only as textboard and wothout the ability to see, save or upload files? It would increase the number of people able to find this place while simultaneously protecting it from the draconian anti wrongthink laws, especialy on lollies.

>>8410 I can discuss it with Acid when he stops being slammed at work. It's theoretically possible to do that with some reworking. I don't think Germany is actually blocked, though. I recall it being on the short list, but we got a lot of (seemingly legitimate) traffic from there

Is the email conformation not working for anyone else?

>>8410 Why not just let those anons connect to 8moe via Tor? That way they could use the site normally and be protected. Oh wait.

>>8412 E-mail is always spotty because a lot of mail servers think we're spam. >>8413 Tor access is available.

>>8414 "Available."

Is everything all right? Any more news to share? What's this sudden silence about?

>>8416 No problems. Everyone is just busy.

>>>/soy/ faggots are causing the >>>/fur/ board to trend with spam. >>>/fur/7888 >>>/fur/7999 >>>/fur/8002 Should we just remove that board already? It ain't trending but sure as shit we can't let them have any ground if they're gonna fuck shit up.

>>8429 >they're spamming my board now FFS 2023 has been a bad year for /fur/

>>8429 I'll let the globals know to be on the lookout. Please globally report spam if it occurs and they should be able to stem the tide.

Idiot Idea time: if TOR image posting is too hard to deal with because of spammers, how about letting TOR users post pictures if and only if they are logged in an account and they have verified it as well?

>>8434 Acid developed an entire system specifically to avoid having people create accounts to verify they are a reputable poster. And yet the only time it's been used is when Mark pisses some retard off in the GG thread by deleting their posts to block any new posters from generating a bypass. And it basically never gets turned on because it turns out most people aren't dumbfucks that never wipe their cookies so the site completely fucking dies every time it gets turned on for more than 12 hours straight. So I wouldn't hold your breath. The cycle of development here is either some convoluted system gets built and never utilized in a way that makes any sense, or the complaints get delegated out to StephenLynx who refuses to implement something as basic as word blocking because he thinks it would be "rule cucking". I could theorize some system where an independent TABS system for TOR posters is always enabled but only applies to their ability to post images. But even if that was practical and achievable it would probably take 3 years for it to ever get pushed out to the site, by then this place will be completely dead.

>>8435 >or the complaints get delegated out to StephenLynx who refuses to implement something as basic as word blocking because he thinks it would be "rule cucking". Maybe we just need to migrate away from lynxchan in that case.

>>8434 >>8435 >>8436 So... yes?

I want to mine a tripcode. What algorithm is used to generate one?

The [Expand Post] feature is duplicating lines. Example of this happening can be seen here: >>>hisrol/81915 Find a long post with the [Expand Post] feature, click on it and copy the next text line and see how it's repeated from the beginning of the post.

dog is a nigger

>>8442 8chan.se is completely fucking dead. You might want to check on that.

Can you add a feature that allows OPs to moderate their threads(deleting, editing, closing), and let board owners enable or disable this feature?

>>8445 That's fucking gay and stupid. If a thread really needs personal moderation they always can add a vol.

>>8445 Retarded idea. OP's can already delete their threads and that feature alone has been routinely abused by people making threads then deleting them once conversations actually start taking place. The sites PPH are glacial, there in no need or reason to have OP's moderate their own individual threads. You're essentially just diluting the concept of a board down to an individual thread, at which point you might as well just make your own board. It would also generate multiple redundant threads as people who get mad at the OP for deleting their posts would make their version of the thread. It's like you put zero thought into how this system would actually play out in reality.

>>8447 As you can... feel, this feature is controversial and there's no need to make it default for all existing boards, but for some boards the toggle could be helpful. If a board owner is retarded enough to enable functions that don't fit the board's theme and ruin it, well, the fate of the board is to suffer from his stupidity anyway.

>>8444 How dead?

>>8448 There is no practical application of the feature. And there are about 4,000 other more vital features that this site needs and will never get that would be more useful. It will never be implemented anyways because nothing besides convoluted redundant spam throttling ever gets developed. And even those features are entirely exclusive to the admins so BO's can't even use them.

>>8449 Like it won't load at all. At least it won't on Tor browser. 8chan.moe loads fine.

>>8451 So that means... it's not dead! Phew! I just wonder what you'll do to the fallback plan...

>>8450 If you have something you feel should be higher priority then please say so. Spam throttles are top priority because ifocusing on anything else during spam can be difficult. But if you'd like to request something you feel is vital then I can attempt to fast-track it, or at least ensure we have an open issue for tracking it. >>8451 I'm not having any issues with either domain, either on clearnet or via Tor. I'm not sure what the issue could be with Tor, since you can't really change your DNS or anything else that would normally be a problem. Your route might just be busted.

I tried to get board clearance by requesting an email confirmation link, but apparently it isn't working (fails to connect to the 8chan server). Additionally, I cannot request another confirmation code, either. Please help.

>>8450 I had an idea in mind that would benefit from a feature like this. I discovered this board not long ago, do the admins here actively respond to requests? Custom JS, for example.

>>8453 >Spam throttles are top priority because ifocusing on anything else during spam can be difficult No they aren't. If preventing spam was top priority there would be basic word blocking in place, and yet there isn't. Instead there's PoW bypasses that can only ever be enabled by an admin, and TABS shit that never even gets enabled because it kills the site. Useful features for BO's have been requested multiple times over the course of years and have never been implemented. I don't expect or think anyone has an obligation to work on anything for free in their spare time. But let's not pretend like the development on this site isn't a complete shit-show. You still can't filter boards off of the overboard. The side catalog still can't be used as an overboard. You still can't word block. Live posting is dead, so we've literally regressed in that feature. Reporting still isn't tied to your block bypass. You still can't move individual posts between threads. None of these are new things. They were issues the first day the site launched and are still issues now. If you want me to pick a feature to fast track make it so reporting doesn't require a fucking captcha and is tied to your block bypass.

>>8456 Nigger, word blocking is garbage that only affects normal users. Already told you on the gg thread, it was used on Hispachan and it destroyed the site. You are so assmad about Stephen and Codexx that you don't even start to consider how your shitty system would pay out.

>>8457 Hey you're the guy who said we don't need the ability to ban or delete posts because hispachan had those features and they didn't stop it from imploding. Also I listed multiple other features besides word blocking that need to be implemented. But keep fixating on that one specific feature request because you got blown the fuck out in some thread arguing against it.

>>8458 Didn't say that, retard, What I said a keyword/regex based filter is garbage and shouldn't be implemented. >I listed multiple other features Yeah, but you always mention the exact same feature and cry because it's not implemented and inside your little nigger brain you can't even begin to consider maybe what you are proposting is dogshit, I You have a woman brain, you complain but you can't put your nigger ass to work on it, you want anyone else to do it for you instead, not realizing 8moe and lynxchan are pretty much one person projects they don't have the resources to develop those features. I seriously wouldn't be surprised if you ended being an actual femanon at this point. The projects are pretty much open source, so go ahead, learn node and work on it instead of bitching all fucking day and shilling JSchan.

>>8459 >Didn't say that, retard, What I said a keyword/regex based filter is garbage and shouldn't be implemented. Your entire logic for why word blocking is bad is that spic retards used it and still had shitty moderation. That exact same logic can be applied to literally any moderation tool. You haven't actually come up with a coherent argument for why it's a shitty tool besides the fact you don't like it. >not realizing 8moe and lynxchan are pretty much one person projects they don't have the resources to develop those features I don't care that the software doesn't get developed fast. It was obvious that none of the contributors had the time to make meaningful additions years ago. I don't expect anything out of people doing this as a hobby in terms of time frames. But I also won't let people get away with pretending like the shit they are doing has been useful or productive when it hasn't. >and shilling JSchan. Lmfao. JSchan has some features over lynxhcan, but it's moderation interface is fucking abysmal. You really are just going full strawman mode. Makes sense why you felt the need to go on your roastie rant. Keep projecting your estrogen induced rage faggot. Now post an actual argument or fuck off nigger.

>>8460 My logic is that word filtering doesn't work because the spammer would just change words so it would affect only regular posters. This is exactly what happened on Hispachan, Juanjo (ex Hispa admin) used to have word filters but they didn't do shit because spammers just used other words and when he black listed those words they also used different words and so on and so on, to the point you get fucking permaban for writing "elf" and "tea" and other innocent shit that got into the blacklist somehow and the admin was such a big faggot that he didn't admit his mistake. Do you see what I mean now and why your idea is fucking retarded? I hope you do. Oh, also you would have keep an eye on whatever the fuck you are filtering; once I got a permaban on Hispashit for mentioned an imageboard that went offline years ago. >I don't expect anything out of people doing this as a hobby in terms of time frames. BREAKING NEWS, NIGGER, most opensource projects are hobby projects. The point of opensource is that if you don't like something then mover your nigger ass and either work on it or pay someone else to do it. I you can't put your nigger brain to work on either of those things, then you can just fuck off. >muh strawman Yeah, there's obviously two guys eternally assblased about Lynxchan and Codexx who always bring up the exact same issues and asking to implement the exact same bloat. Just choke and die already.

>>8461 >My logic is that word filtering doesn't work because the spammer would just change words so it would affect only regular posters. If a post gets deleted I can just make it again, so why allow BO's to delete post? >Do you see what I mean now and why your idea is fucking retarded? I hope you do. No. Your entire issue with word blocking is that a retarded and malicious BO can use it to be gay and retarded. In which case you can just not use their board and make or use a competing one instead. You want to remove agency from BO's because your a retarded faggot that doesn't understand the entire point of 8chan. A malicious and shitty BO is going to make your experience shit regardless of whether or not word blocking exists. >BREAKING NEWS, NIGGER, most opensource projects are hobby projects. I don't know why you think this is breaking news.

>>8462 God, you are dense. >If a post gets deleted I can just make it again, so why allow BO's to delete post? One thing is deleting shit that was already posted, and other thing is deleting shit BEFORE it's posted. The former the spammer can just check if his post are getting banned, then find the blacklist and modify his spam. This is EXACTLY what happened when Hispa was online. False positives were fucking common because the regular users couldn't figure out which words were on blacklist and the spammer just had several proxies to check it out. Having to test a vpn just to post a single shitpost was horrible. >a retarded and malicious BO can use it to be gay and retarded lol, Juanjo is a retard nigger but the blacklist's problem was fundamental rather than who used it. Let me explain it to you on simple retard language: >Spammer attacks site using X1 word >Admin adds X1 word to filter >Spammer notices X1 words is on filter so he uses X2 words instead >Admin added X2 words to filter And so on. As you can see, the spam never gets stopped and the filter gets filled with words that causes more and more false positives. That's why it doesn't work and nobody should try to use bots and blacklist to moderate their board. >I don't know why you think this is breaking news. Because you act like those guys are getting paid or have the obligation to make this shitposting engine perfect. Again, you are acting as a woman who thinks everybody else has the obligation to serve her arbitrary needs.

>>8463 >One thing is deleting shit that was already posted, and other thing is deleting shit BEFORE it's posted Uh, yeah. >The former the spammer can just check if his post are getting banned, then find the blacklist and modify his spam You can check if your posts are being deleted and post them again. >False positives were fucking common because the regular users couldn't figure out which words were on blacklist and the spammer just had several proxies to check it out. Having to test a vpn just to post a single shitpost was horrible. Again, you're just describing a shitty BO. This isn't an argument against word blocks, it's an argument against using shitty boards. >And so on. As you can see, the spam never gets stopped and the filter gets filled with words that causes more and more false positives. That's why it doesn't work and nobody should try to use bots and blacklist to moderate their board. Word blocks aren't just about spam. But it is better to have the bulk of generic spam be caught by a filter. Every single one of your arguments against word blocks assumes a BO creates them in such a way that they catch regular users. It's like banning guns because you think the average American is too stupid to use them responsibly. My agency trumps your irrational fear of bad board owners. >Because you act like those guys are getting paid I said the exact opposite, but okay. >have the obligation to make this shitposting engine perfect. I went out of my way to say they specifically don't have any obligation to meet any sort of time frame for development. Are you actually brain dead?

>>8453 >I'm not having any issues with either domain, either on clearnet or via Tor. I'm not sure what the issue could be with Tor, since you can't really change your DNS or anything else that would normally be a problem. Your route might just be busted. I'm not really sure what could have happened. I've been using .se for over a year and then suddenly it stopped loading. And I mean stopped loading. It doesn't give an error or warning or anything it just "loads" a blank page after a few seconds when I go to anything on the .se domain now.

>>8465 Try doing a traceroute command to the 8chan.se domain and see where it goes. Maybe yoiur traffic is going through some eurofag network that's blocking us.

Hello, was the global bumplock limit raised? A board I was posting on had 1200 as the global limit but now it's going past that all of a sudden and I wanted to ask what's the new limit. Thank you.

1) Can you remove per-post captcha on /site/? It seems really counterproductive seeing as people usually come here to report bugs and issues. It's okay with new threads though. 2) Who owns the official 8ch twitter handle? Is it possible to ask them a question to better advertise the site?

>>8476 Advertising on twitter is probably an awful idea just because of the kind of retards that use that place. But it would be interesting just from an analytics perspective to see if something like whatever the twitter premium thing is could amplify a tweet and actually drive traffic to the site. But I'd much rather effort was spent advertising on alternative platforms.

>>8472 IIRC they disabled the bump limit and they are testing it on /v/

>>8476 I tried to advertise my board on Twitter and it didn't go anywhere. Too much information movement, it's hard foe anything to go viral you need to pretty much post there all day to get any traction. >>8477 >I'd much rather effort was spent advertising on alternative platforms. Such as?

>>8482 >Such as? Mastodon and pleroma instances.

>>8483 >Mastodon and pleroma instances. What kind of instances? I'm planning to announce my streaming project on a Mastodon instance but I have no clue where to even begin.

>>8485 https://freespeechextremist.com/main/public I only know of this one as a specific.

>>8485 >>8487 https://shitposter.club/main/public There's also this one.

>>>/v/885984 Jewboy said it didn't work but didn't offer any details because he probably doesn't know what the fuck he's doing. Does anybody here have any information to share for why whatever he was testing failed?

>>8495 No clue. It sounds like maybe Codexx was testing out literally having no bump limit at all on his board and it caused bugs. But I see no reason you couldn't just set the bump limit to be very close to the post limit to have it functionally not in place. But as you said, it's Mark so he won't communicate anything, and Codexx/Acid may or may not respond to this post in 4 months when they happen to check this thread.

>>8495 Mark wanted to do some kind of experiment. He first said he wanted threads to "just end" at post 700, instead of autosage engaging. A day or two later, he said he wanted to see if he could have autosage at 700 and then lock at 750. The autosage limit was set to 600 globally at this time, and board limits cannot exceed global limits. So at this stage, Mark is under the impression that 750 is some hard cap on thread length, and that if he could adjust the autosage number to 700 he could basically nullify autosage, or minimize it, and just have threads live on until they locked. However, this is not how LynxChan handles this. There is no place to set the reply limit for threads. Instead, you set the autosafe point and then threads lock when hitting double that number. So Mark could not run his experiment because no matter how high he set the autosage number there would still be half a thread's worth of replies available. On the upside, per his previous request (before I knew what he wanted to do beyond "raise the autosage point") I bumped the global limit up to 1,000 posts. So globally, threads can now hit 2,000 replies, half of that autosaged. Board owners can lower that number, and for a slower but semi-active board that might be a good idea to keep threads from stagnating. >>8496 We're in here replying we're just not capcoding.

>>8497 >There is no place to set the reply limit for threads. Instead, you set the autosafe point and then threads lock when hitting double that number God this software is so fucking bad

>>8497 I found this graphical bug here >>>/ac/27251 >Hover over cited bumplocked thread >Excepted action: The thread is showed with the -anchor- icon >What happening: The thread is showed but not the -ancor- icon It's small, but still worth checking out. I'm using librewofl, by the way.

>>8498 This "autosage limi" and "autolock limit" should be two different customizable variables.

>>8500 I just assumed they were because anything else would be unfathomably fucking stupid. Just goes to show you should never underestimate the incompetence of the hue tranny.

I just want to say, cole, that you're a genuine moron who had an aberrant lapse of judgement when you said "pedos have a right to free speech" I never talk about you, but it's the most braindead thing that has spewed out from your fingertips and onto the keyboard, I have no fucking idea what your thought process and cognition was when inviting mentally ill Max Karson types to your board was EVER a good idea. Seriously, what the fuck idiot. You're a damn good dev, and make shit work, but that's seriously a black mark on your career.

>>8502 I sincerely doubt even Max would defend uploading pictures of children in bikini's to an imageboard as you talk about how you want to molest them.

>>8503 It's as if that kind of malicious compliance is what pedocreeps label "free speech" to begin with, it's as if meaning is amorphous to those who see children as sex toys with legs or something. "Free Speech" as pedoniggers define it means "Post what we want, plan what we want, distribute what we want."

>>8500 >>8501 Seriously wouldn't it just be easier to move to a better imageboard software than Lynxchan at this point? Lynxchan has lots of features but none of them where and how you actually want them.

Where can I talk about incest in western animation? /co/ delete me just few hours after it was posted https://8chan.moe/co/res/36677.html In /aco/ people start bringing real incest in incest thread and all get deleted

reeee unban me from /v/ markmann, the fuggen sojak shitpost I made was just ironic shitpost. I'm not a fuggen soyjak spammer.

BLYAT MY BAN ID IS 651eb45049271177f885bbe1

>flood detected wait 1 second <wait a second >FLOOD DETECTED WAIT 12 SECONDS

Odds are very good the yid had his anger tantrum and then went to sleep, could someone who isn't completely fucking incompetent (probably dog) unban me for posting meta in the meta thread, which is very clearly not for video games?

>>8536 Lifted one ban. Appeal the other one.

>>8537 Done; why does it even stack that way?

>>8538 stephens spaghetti code.

>>8538 Lifted. >why does it even stack that way? No idea. Sometimes the site applies double bans for no reason. I don't know if this is a bug with Lynxchan or with the way the admins set up 8moe to be more "secure".

>>8540 Lynxchan. Its fixed already upstream. So whenever the new update hits it will be fixed.

I have a sugg to make, there should be a option to have permanent flag selection. Some boards like /fur/ have a lot of flags and it would be really nice if I don't have to select the same flag every time I am making a post on boards with custom flags enabled.

>>5423 So when is Tor fileposting coming back it feels like forever?

>>8544 Feels like a lot less time than the entire month he forgot to turn back on TOR text posting. Don't even give admins any ideas of fucking with TOR shit. Next time they'll accidentally turn it off forever.

Mark just can't stop banning endlessly for his own actions; first two posts are in the LOL thread, for posterity, and he didn't even delete the one asking about it, just mine for pointing out who did it.

So, nothing? No action, no response, no update? I was banned for two meta posts, one of which was in the meta thread itself and the other was responding to a meta question that, itself, didn't get deleted. Mark is clearly moderating in bad faith if he refuses to comply with the transparency that the board log offers and the results of his own moderation actions thereof. He refuses to answer questions or statements in his meta thread or explain himself very nearly ever since he's convinced himself that everybody who disagrees with him is a nasty troll and not someone speaking with sincerity, at the very least i want some manner of answer and accountability on THIS board, which isn't run by a self-important fucktard.

>>8547 Where do you think you are? Do you think admins jump into dethrone BO's that moderate in ways you don't like? You're free to moderate your board however you please. If you don't like how a BO is running his board make a competing one. Unironically begging Acid, who is arguably a bigger retard than even fucking Mark, to be the arbiter of who gets to be a BO and how they moderate is some of the most retarded shit imaginable. You want to take Mark's level of spergout incompetence and hand that authority over to the site admin? You should be thanking god Acid is mostly hands off. Or else we get more instance of people being globally banned for saying the site isn't very active.

>>8548 What i want is sensibility and fairness in moderation, which i expect to get from the fat faggot running the show by hook or crook on this small website. Part of the reason we bailed on 4chan was moot was too far removed from the populace and his team of moderators no longer represented the community, but on a site this small, especially now that we shrunk since nine years ago, we can speak truth to power more freely and directly and i'd want that power to listen, if only for once. I'd also like some measure of consideration to the one (1) person at a time raising a justified complaint against emotion-swing moderation, where he doesn't delete ALL meta outside the meta thread, just the stuff that offends him personally by pointing out his actions in a publicly available log. I expect the admins to have a degree of fairness and, at the very least, is bad moderation is occurring not just on their most populated board, but on a board owned by a guy that they're thick as thieves with, to take him aside and correct him when he goes astray. Most people won't bother with this; most people will jump tor nodes and keep on shitposting. But as one of the few clearlet johnnys on this site, i'm gonna, at the very least, stand up and raise a fuss over any extensive, bullshit bans i get, both in the hopes of clearing my current one and in stopping any future ones. Might be a futile attempt for the jew but felbot hasn't given me any bullshit bans lately, at least.

>>8549 So you want someone who has demonstrated on multiple occasions that he is at least as retarded as Mark, to make unilateral moderation decisions on the site every time someone cries about a BO. That's impressively stupid, thanks for the laugh.

>>8550 I mean, i was thinking Dog more than anybody, but yeah, nobody can be as fucktarded as the cliptip is, even if felbot tries his damndest, so good odds all around i reckon.

>>8551 So you have no clue who the admins of the site even are. Thanks for proving that your stupidity knows no end.

>>8552 Dog's the one that does the heavy lifting, he's the one i have the most trust in; Acid, Codexxxxxxxx, and third guy who's name i don't remember aren't as relevant. With as snide as you are i ASSUME you're fagbitch since jewboy is too lazy to reply most of the time, except for when he's posting Gladiator pics out of in hilarious, oblivious hubris.

>>8553 Dogs a janny. Not an admin. And you are retarded.

>>8554 whatever ya say buddy

>>8549 Moderation stuff is generally overseen by Parias. But you have to realize, Global Rule 3 has a very high bar to meet before admins will intervene in a Board Owner's business. It's only been invoked one time since the site was made, and the issue was the BO refusing to properly mod against CP. "A few bad bans here and there" is a million miles away from that, as annoying as I'm sure it gets to the people hit by it. And barring GR3 violations, BOs are generally left alone to run their board in whatever way they wish and ban whomever they wish, for whatever reasons they wish. There can be exceptions, but we're all committed to never abusing the admin powers. All that being said, I'll let Parias know that you have some concerns and he can answer you properly.

>>8557 Alright, guess i'll keep waiting then. Is Dog off on a weekend sojourn or something? He usually just unbans me when i whinge here about some stupid bullshit.

>>8557 The blacked faggot board shit he did was extremely questionable and the excuse for it was completely illogical. Not that I particularly care in that one instance, but the precedent it set was ridiculous.

>>8558 Unbanned from the site or unbanned from a board? What were you banned for. Who banned you. and finally. None of this is dogs job, unless dog is who banned you. You fucking imbecile. You moron. You retarded child.

>>8562 >>8546 you colossal nigger, im sorry you cant scroll the fuck up a dozen posts i realize its not dog's job but he usually does it anyhow because i guess hes not a colossal faggot and also has global mod powers so he sees the report help requests i toss out for attention; maybe he agrees that unnecessary bans are fucking retarded and tries to mitigate it when it happens, i never actually asked him the nuances of his moderation morality

>>8563 You were banned locally on /v/ by the BO, Mark. If Dog goes behind his back to lift the ban then hes guilty of over reach. Again. This isnt dogs job. This isnt even related to the site as a whole. You have an issue with a BO. Thats your issue and not site staffs. So stop bitching here.

>>8564 I'd gladly bitch about it on /v/ but, you know, kinda banned there so i can't post about it. I might use redchannit, but then i can't post my screencap of events and i feel like putting it on catbox and linking it there would make people not give a shit about it, as if jewboy has any credulousness in him anymore, giving or receiving. At least here i can make some sort of case on it that people who the yid might acknowledge, names he recognizes or should recognize, can turn to him and, if make a proper argument about it, then point his attention here and say 'here's someone with a sincere grievance'. I fully intend to post this bullshit when my ban is up or lifted and i fully expect to get banned again because the kike has a skull of cement, but when that happens i'll be right back here once more because it's the only option i have for anything resembling decency and fairness when tubby talmud won't be reasonable. I guess i could friend him on steam for a more direct approach, but i'd start off with calling him a retarded kike which i doubt would go over well.

>>8549 I've reached out to Mark, but in broad terms we've spoken once or twice before about the meta thread in particular. I have my own opinion on it, but really at the end of the day Mark is checking all the boxes: he is enforcing the Global Rules, he is active with his moderation, he has an active team for when he is not around. His board is his board, and while I or the other admins may have opinions on how things are run, it's not our board and so we keep our hands off. With that said, it does need to be mentioned that antagonizing a BO, then going over his head to appeal his ban, then going right back into it and antagonizing him again but this time with the added spice of "This is what I was banned for, look how mad he is" is a pretty unsustainable pattern and will continue to have pretty predictable results. While I agree that a BO or really any moderator shouldn't take things personally, you have to admit that this sort of behavior seems to be custom-crafted to produce a personal response directly from him. I'll speak to him but you'll have to meet me in the middle here if you expect a different result next time.

>>8568 The different result i expect, though, is him owning up to his actions, not seeing the log of his own deletions and going "HOW DARE YOU POINT OUT WHAT I DID ON A PUBLICLY AVAILABLE DOCUMENT", especially when one of those two deletion-bans was for posting it in the meta thread, where in i get banned for talking about meta. The result i want is him being sensible and not banning just because he's being justifiably accused of shit he provably did, and other than posting evidence of it the only way i can think to impart that concept is to be real snide about it, like "gee mark why dont we just get rid of the board logs and transparency if you dont want us seeing you moderation actions?" I'm not usually that subtle, but if you think that'd work instead to get him to grow some rhino skin on him then i'll try to keep it in mind. I'm never going to be happy as long as he keeps banning people, or at the very least me, for calling him out when it's needed.

>>8569 >I'm a retarded newfag who doesn't understand Mark will literally never change so I will spend days crying about gay shit instead of just using the site provided ban evasion tools

>>8573 Or, he could even make his own /v/.

>>8574 thats just called zzzchan tho

>>8547 You need to understand that you're dealing with an honest-to-God retard. Complain (justifiably) and continue to ban evade. Doing anything else is a waste of time. >>8574 That won't work for the same reason basically every English language board is dead.

>>8564 >If Dog goes behind his back to lift the ban then hes guilty of over reach. Actually I became a vol on /v/ to be able to deal with these situations. I have the account "local_dog" to separate actions done as a /v/ol from my global actions, but honestly sometimes I'm too lazy to switch profiles and end up using my main account to moderate /v/ ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯.

>>8583 I understand that. But what I am saying is that if you go around behind the BOs back then thats over reach. You are abusing either of your accounts authority at that point. No one has told you to be Marks oversight. If you do that on your own. Then your fucking up and publically. Please dont do that.

>>8584 Are you retarded or something? Mark made Dog a moderator on his board and gave him authority. Mark has let retards like felbot get away with way more erroneous behavior than Dog unbanning people because Mark had a spergout episode. A moderator on /v/ can do whatever he wants. If Mark doesn't like what one of his moderators is doing then he can remove their authority on his board. It has no bearing on site administration.

Does anyone know how to change the color of fieldset text in CSS? Preferably element by element? I can't suss out the exact value despite poking around in different themes.

Does anyone know of any resources on LynxChan's LaTeX? More precisely, why does ';amp' appear when using the '&' column separator?

>>8650 It's not native to LynxChan, it's something I implemented by wrapping calls to Katex. https://katex.org/ If you find a bug in how something is being parsed, let me know.

>>8651 Thanks Anon, I will let you know of anything weird.

>>8651 Well I think there is a problem with the '&' character: $\begin{array}{ccc}P& amp;\neg P& amp;\neg (\neg P)\\ V& amp;F& amp;V\\ F& amp;V& amp;F\end{array}$ The KaTeX code is \begin{array}{|c|c|c|} P & \neg P & \neg (\neg P) \\ V & F & V \\ F & V & F \end{array}

>>8544 It's been 5 months, I don't think it's ever coming back.

>>8604 >>8657 The problem is that they go by cartoon logic and to do something relatively simple they want something ultra elaborate and expensive. There's no nuance and meanwhile we're stuck without images.

For worksafe boards In mobile-view please disable nsfw boards appearing among top board list. It is worksafe afterall

Is it okay to gatekeep porn addicted fags? I'm voling on some board that has always had people who likes porn and rule 34, but recently they are going over the top with that sentient derailing threads and shit. I'm not sure if I should gatekeep them and ban them for that or just let them tag along and ignore them, but I'm not sure, some of their posts histories suggest they are crossposters/newfags, I want to know your opinions about it.

>>8663 Do what you want on your own board. No one can assess your situation without knowing the board in question and the context for the posts you are taking issue with. What the fuck is sentient derailing?

>>8663 I recommend that you give advance notice of the rule change, and take action in the first few days (warnings instead of bans, or short bans) to reduce the conflict that the new rules will generate.

Could the option be added for BO to set a default flag (instead of no flag)?

Thanks for fixing the global CSS bug. >>8664 What I mean is that some anons have been derailing discussion threads into mindless porn spam and fanfiction. >>8665 That's basically have been doing for a while. I think I'm sticking to that strategy.

>>5423 Is redchannit always supposed to redirect to the home page? I wanted to link the site to a few anons who live in Russia but I cannot reach >>>/ru/ even if the link is set to "redchannit.org/ru/".

>>8678 I'll ask Acid to look into it.

Is there a way for me to continue using the 10th anniversary theme? I liked the way it looked

>>8680 The menu should still be there and should still work. Do a Ctrl+F5 to force a cache reload. If the menu still isn't there, open your development tools (Ctrl+Shift+i) and check the Console tab. See if you get any errors reported, especially regarding theme.js. >>8681 Open the Settings menu, go to the CSS tab, and add a line to @import the birthday CSS, which should be at /.static/css/birthday.css It was just the regular birthday CSS with the additional 10th Anniversary pedestal in the corner.

>>8682 >SyntaxError: expected expression, got '.' > theme.js:190:24 Wondering if this is a waterfox issue, but ctrl F5 did nothing. Screenshot of where clicking on theme.js takes me, complete with its automatic highlighting of what I assume is the problem.

>>8683 I think WaterFox probably suffers from an issue Pale Moon and others have. The older JS engine they use does not support using '?' to check for nulls. I will look into a solution

>>8680 >>8683 For those who have the same problem, you can put the content of this file in Settings > JS in the meantime. It is the same code from https://8chan.moe/.static/js/theme.js except for the following changes: * Changed the optional chaining operator to if. * The Moepheus theme is available (there are also three other hidden themes that appear commented, but personally the first one is the one I like the most).

>>8689 That did the trick, just had to refresh the page and it worked.

redchannit.org/boardname/ still doesn't redirect to /boardname/ after going through the splashscreen, rather it throws you into the home page every time. Additionally, what's the status report on TOR fileposting? This has been a long time coming.

>>8696 Every time Tor gets file posting re-enabled, some angry nigger immediately uses it to shit out a hundred CP posts.

>>8697 He was spamming it over VPN's too, he just got bored eventually.

>>8697 >>8698 Come on let's just get it up already, a week's test and if it causes more trouble than it's worth you just deactivate it again.

Why is 8chan now serving webp instead of the original format?

>>8700 We don't re-encode any original images, and thumbnails are encoded as PNG. >>8699 I'll talk to Acid about it. We would quite like to get websockets fixed beforehand.

>>8702 Then why am I getting served webp on some images when the original image is a jpeg? I somehow doubt that the original poster converted it to webp before uploading it but kept the jpeg extension.

>>8703 Can you provide an example?

>>8704 https://8chan.moe/zoo/res/1239.html#6548

Redchannit ain't working. Page shows up but CSS doesn't load. Can't post either.

>>8705 As far as I can tell, that is a webp that has .jpg in the filename. The extension in the filename is just a convention and generally image-viewing software will detect the type of the image and decode it rather than trust the filename to be accurate. The server actually checks the MIME type of every uploaded file and uses what it detects over the filename. If it's serving it as a WebP it's because the user uploaded it as a webp. The site literally doesn't have code to convert original files. The only image processing it does is for thumbnail generation.

>>8706 Sometimes there's a bad cache. I'll alert Acid to look into it. He's had some technical issues at his place lately that probably need to be resolved before he can work on site stuff, though.

>>8709 How bad of a thing is that? Compared to animebathscenewiki.com...

Add tooltips showing full title of each board in the top boards bar when hovering mouse over by adding their titles as title attributes to each <a> tag like in 4chan. It's not clear what a lot of these board are. e.g. <a href="/tkr">tkr</a> should be <a href="/tkr" title="Tickling Refuge">tkr</a>

>>8689 the patch works but without it shit is still broken

>>8712 Fix should be in the next update. I'm rolling 2.9 into 2.10 and waiting for a couple more pull requests to be merged.

Acid /v/ is getting spammed in the gg thread, probably tourist from soyjakparty due to the sisterfucking game fallout. Time to do the thing.

say, if I want to create a new board(and a new css for it), but I do not have any experience with css, how do I do it? are there any free no-code tools/tutorials on how to create your own css?

>>8711 This please, this so much >>8720 >but I do not have any experience with css, how do I do it? View the board's page source, download the css file from it and just fuck around with the values until you find something that is to your liking. >are there any free no-code tools/tutorials on how to create your own css? >>>/css/ https://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp

>>8720 You should probably look at some of the site's themes. They may make a good example. All the colors are set with CSS variables, so palette-swapping an existing theme is pretty easy. Otherwise, there are some neat tricks that have been used and can be copied. For anything more advanced, you will need to learn CSS properly. >>8711 >>8722 I'll see if I can hack this in over the weekend.

>A file had a format that is not allowed by the server What the fuck? Both files are mp4s. Testing one. Got the problem file on the first try it's this, https://files.catbox.moe/1tck50.mp4 Why is this mp4 throwing a disallowed file format block?

Thanks whoever fixed the issue 8chan had with posting multiple images from clipboard

>>8727 What issue?

>>8726 Because it's actually an x-m4v file, which is Apple's weird derived version of MP4, and we didn't have that on the whitelist. It's now on the whitelist. >>8727 First I have heard of the problem and we haven't pushed an update in some time. It's most likely a local issue.

>>8728 In the past I've been unable to post when attaching multiple images from my clipboard

>>8730 I second this, it usually happens with new threads >>8722 >>8724 thank you for the answers

When you hit [expand post] the text is duplicated, it repeats.

>>8734 no one cares, pedospic

>>8734 Fixed on test. Will roll out with the next update.

I have a question, and since when I create a board, it defaults to SFW... How can I mark my board as NSFW?

>>8741 New boards default to NSFW. Regardless, if you want it toggled, you need to e-mail the admins.

LOCO hay como 4 hilos de del cunny,hay 3 o 4 de pedofilos y 3 de los argensimiosque se creen que todo gira al rededor de ellos tiene sus respectivos tablones , tienen /delicuis,/av ,incluso esta /arg que no debería existir por que son CANCER aunque sea fusiona los que tengan la misma mierda castrosa,pero lo que mas me preocupa son lo de los pedros de mierda.Cuando no es el enfermo que postea el link del caldo de pollo aparecen lo de la" pedo filia es buena" esto esta ocurriendo en /hispachan y me dijeron que lo reporte aqui a continuacion.

Why is it that despite "saving" the volume bar very low, it comes back at full volume? It is very annoying.

>>8745 I can't attach an image, but I mean the options

Does anyone know if global reports will also generate a local open report?

>>8748 They don't

I mean this, even though I always click on the "save" button, the volume bar always stays at the top, at the maximum level".

The /sm/ board doesn't look COMPLETELY updated for the holidays, and by that, I mean more that just the snow overlay...

>>8753 need help please!!!!

The RSS feed feature is broken.

>>8760 How broken? It's RSS; it's SUPPOSED to look broken!

>>8753 Browser version? >>8760 Please explain how it is broken, preferably with steps to reproduce.

>>8761 >>8762 I think it's supposed to look like that...

>>8763 It is; you're supposed to plug the URL into a feed reader. I'd like the person who posted to confirm they're actually using a feed reader.

>>5423 If I use the name field once, it never clears up, even if I make new posts without a name how do I make it clear up automatically, without clearing my cookies?

>>8765 you cant. Make a new post and write Anonymous in the namefield. Thats the best and fastest method available currently.

>>8766 thank you for the quick response

>>8765 This is a browser problem that doesn't have an easy fix. We can mark the field to not remember, but browsers try to be "helpful" and ignore it.

>>8761 I'm trying to add a board to the RSS feed called NewNewsWire, and it returns the error "The feed couldn't be found and can't be added".

>>8772 Thanks, I'll take a look at it. I have a feeling I know what the problem is.

>>5423 How do I hide my username in the last edited by messages? Can I hide my username in the public logs? this feature should be implemented, jschan has it too

>>8795 No, and this is to enforce accountability. Users should be aware which moderator is taking a given action.

>>8796 not a single person in your cabal of jannies have ever been held accountable for anything. how does it feel to have absolutely flawless moderation that never does anything wrong ever?

>>8798 >not a single person in your cabal of jannies have ever been held accountable Literally couldn't be further from the truth. GVols found abusing their power are removed and incorrectly deleted posts get restored. Incorrect removals are undone and clarifications issued when appropriate. And it's hardly a "cabal" when the coordination room has minimal chatter and everyone uses an alias. The open logs ensure everyone is aware of who takes an action, and if a moderator abuses their power then we can rely on them to figure out what happened and when.

>>8802 the guy who leaked conversations from your "coordination room" doesn't count. we're talking about accountability to the users in which there is none which is why your userbase is actively boycotting you because thats the only way they can hold you accountable. you should know all about that since thats what you did to 8kun.

>>8804 Tell us one (1) occasion in which a gvol abused his power and wasn't removed

>>8810 Get fuckt faggot.

>>8810 Your globally banned for posting traced cp right? Which you are currently ban evading. Reported.

>>8804 >the guy who leaked conversations from your "coordination room" doesn't count. The leaked conversations were from Mark's /v/ room. The admins do not hang out there, and neither do globals unless they also happened to be /v/ volunteers at the time. >we're talking about accountability to the users Which is why logs are always public. >your userbase is actively boycotting you because thats the only way they can hold you accountable. If that's the case, nobody has bothered to say that they're boycotting or explain what we could do to appease them.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TURN OFF THE SNOW! IT'S FUCKING JANUARY!

>>8820 knowing the name of the faggot who came in here and deleted my posts and knowing its the same faggot whose actively making /b/ unusuable by deleting every post he doesn't like doesn't bring me any closer to holding him accountable for his actions because you're the one who has to do that and you never will. which is exactly why the spanish speaking userbase thats quarantined away from your cancerous moderation via a language barrier is healthier than the english speaking one that has less users than you started with.

>>8823 most places still have snow in january anon

>>8826 >I posted CP and then ban evaded why did you ban me again? Gee I wonder why. >muh /b/ No one cares about /b/ and if you don't like what the guy taking care of it is doing with it then you can make your own board or just fuck off and more on. Anyone can make their own board and do whatever he wants with it, no one is forced to use them.

>>8828 if I'm guilty of posting cp then so is everyone else because I've done more to point out to you retards which loli artists are kosher by your standards and which ones aren't than anyone else here. without me you'd still be sharing everything nefrubi comes out with on the dedicated thread for them in your loli board that existed until I came in and proved he traced. as for /b/ it will always serve as the entry point of an imageboard in which organic growth and new boards originate from. trying to turn /v/ into that by making gamergate threads a microcosm of /b/ doesn't serve as a replacement because nobody outside the little circlejerk you have left are even aware of its existance.

>>8829 >you >your Dude, you are talking to someone else. I do agree not every loli content is legal and lolifags are big niggers for acting otherwise, but the heated way to communicate this and the fact that you are ban evading give me the impression you want to cause drama rather than keeping the site healthy. If you happen to find traced CP just globally report it or send an email to the admins so they would look into it. >it will always serve as the entry point of an imageboard in which organic growth and new boards originate from. I don't agree. Maybe 10 or 15 years ago, but nowadays they just attract the worst kinds of imageboard users. On top of that, moe's /b/ is boring as fuck, their mods ban whatever they feel like. >trying to turn /v/ into that by making gamergate threads a microcosm of /b/ doesn't serve as a replacement because nobody outside the little circlejerk you have left are even aware of its existance I do agree here, the gg thread is an obnoxious circlejerk and it's more comparable to a discord server rather than an actual imageboard thread and Mark is a big retard for not realising they are too busy talking about Twitter drama and hunting down their boogie men to post on other places; but that's irrelevant and Mark can do whatever he wants with his board, same way I can do whatever I want with the boards I own.

Why has there been literally ZERO (0) meaningful updates to the site? Its been half a year now.

>>8831 Yeah, why? Is there a writer's strike going on or is someone missing?

>>8832 >>8831 Wait, what "meaningful updates" were you referring to?

hey codex, here is i'd want you to do: given that >>5423 and >>>/co/35154 do the same thing of(and i quote https://8chan.moe/.static/pages/posting.html ) "add a tooltip with the post preview if you have javascript enabled." could you make >>>/co/ make a pic related, random banner and all?

Would it be possible to add jfif and webp MIME types? jfif is just metadata-independent jpeg so it should function as-is I'd imagine, and webp is... Well webp is a can of worms for reasons so I would get if that one is impossible. Asking since a lot of normalfag sites use those two pretty commonly these days.

>>8834 That actually is probably pretty doable. Can't promise it in the next update, though, since it's feature locked. Just doing additional bug hunting. I'll add it to the to-do list, though. >>8835 Webp is already enabled. I'll check jfif. If you have a webp you tried to upload, and it got rejected, please upload somewhere and link it so I can verify the MIME. >>8831 Everyone has been busy. Update is progressing steadily, but slowly. Hopefully soon.

>>8836 >Everyone has been busy. Update is progressing steadily, but slowly. Hopefully soon. Including shotakot? I wish I knew where he was...

I would like to request /news/ be turned into a SFW board. If there are any images currently on the board that are NSFW please give me a heads up and I will adjust the moderating standards accordingly. In other news, I am considering posting deepl translations of articles in Spanish when I post them to appeal to /hisparefugio/, /mex/, and the rest of the hispachan diaspora. Are there any cultural considerations I should keep in mind before advertising that I intend to do so to these boards? I know a little (Mexican) Spanish, but I am a gringo through-and-through only knowing English and a tiny bit of Russian/Japanese/Spanish. >>8836 Yep, all seems to be in order I just didn't see them in the global directory for filetypes.

>>8838 Your SFW flag has been set. Just like with you and /news/, the hispas have their own board rules and culture s the best that I can tell you is to lurk moar there or just make a post in their meta threads and ask the BOs directly. Also congrats on making the site topbar! I know I'll be posting on your board some.

>>8839 Appreciate it, I'll try not to be too much of a shitter and keep things organized. >Also congrats on making the site topbar! Ehhhh.... I'm a filthy VPN user so I hope that didn't influence it too much. I'll try to keep to a general standard of quality to not disappoint!

>>8762 >Browser version? tried on Opera GX, Edge and now on Brave too, all updated to their latest version and the result is the same, every time I enter a new thread or refresh the page, the volume goes back up to the maximum!!!

Site-wide chart & xtra. Original, normal, & smol versions.

>year of our lord 2024 >still can't post images suck dicking niggers

What happened to /news/, why are some threads gone?

>>8866 >>>/news/ as a whole is gone.

>>8866 Wait, what, why? It's been only been a week. Does it have something to do with the spat that was happening with Smug/a/?

>>8868 >the spat that was happening with Smug/a/? the what

>>8869 https://archive.is/YZ2H5 https://archive.is/fj1kM#131

>>8866 >>8867 I hate when this shit happens, what the fuck? it was there just some hours ago. The board was new but quite active and most anons welcomed it, so it would've been able to grow steadily over time. >>8869 >>8870 tl;dr /news/ board owner posted some news on smuglo /kohi/ thread and added the url to 8moe's /news/ board, mod got mad, removed the 8moe url from the post, banned the guy and deleted every mention to 8moe.

Yeah this has happened one too many times. Whether by accident, fatfingering, maliciousness or trolling or just having a bad day the Board Owner's "delete board" option has never been used in a way that it didn't mess up a bunch of stuff and upset a bunch of anons. I don't know what happened to /news/BO and he might well have a good reason but its still a pain to have this occur suddenly. That problem is now solved courtesy of Codexx's mastery of Lynxchan. Deleting a board will require admin approval from now on. Edit: In the meantime if anyone would like to take up the mantle of reopening a /news/ type board then we certainly welcome it.

I have webring friends of several years tell me they would drop me like dead weight if I continued running /news/ because of the Smug fiasco. The anon harassment was whatever but the private harassment was too much. It's not that I didn't want to run it, but I'm fiercely loyal to a handful of them for various reasons and the ones I'm not loyal to would run a doxxing campaign against me that could ruin my IRL life (as they made very clear) because I'm a lolicon, so there isn't much choice in an ultimatum like that. Gomen.

>>8873 Your ASN and IP ranges match the BO's history here and on /v/. That is seriously fucked up man... On their part, not yours. You got fucking extorted to kill your very promising board by webringfags over webring drama? I don't know what to say. Holy shit.

>>8873 Fucking weakling. They bullied the /animu/ guy the same way and he folded the same way. I'm not sympathetic, you're giving them what they want and proving it works.

>>8874 I'm sorry for creating drama over a nothingboard. The ones involved in this and the ones I want to protect are different people, but there's very little I can do at this time that wouldn't harm the people I want to protect. I got too loose with my OpSec and the troublemakers caught me, so any further involvement will harm my friends. I think I'm done with imageboards pretty much entirely after this since I hate being made a fool/tool for other peoples' sick games.

>>8873 what a bunch of colossal fagmos, thats not sugoi at all

>>8873 >>8876 If you are actually the (now former) board owner of /news/ then this is really disheartening information. I'd been looking for a good aggregator of reporting that grabbed those pieces a bit off the beaten path and was a fan of the board. The private relationships you mention sound abusive, hopefully you can somehow cut ties with those who bear you ill will and convince your friends to support your future endeavors rather than shun you for them. I'd mostly ignored the conflicts between this site and the webring but this event is forcing me to regard what I'd previously viewed as petty squabbles and drama with fresh eyes. It is not a good thing.

>>8873 >>8872 Sounds to me like someone wasn't that great with Operational Security and a anti-lolicon found the /news/ owner and doxxed him. I'm gonna say that this is a worse look on 'the hunter' rather than 'the hunted' >>8878 I'm not sure that ignoring drama can necessarily be good, since IRL effects of it can come back at you. One can escape from reality, but not reality's consequences.

>>8874 Shouldn't you be busy making Asuka blacked edits right now?

>>8873 >>8875 What can men do against such reckless faggotry?

>>8874 Is the board backed up or stored at the 8moe end or is it a case of once it's deleted it's gone for good?

>>8881 The easy answer is to have better opsec, the medium answer is to get better friends/acquaintances, and the hard answer is to not care whether you get doxxed or not.

>>8879 Dramas can and largely should be ignored, they're nothing but a performance after all. This is beyond what can be described as drama, blackmail and extortion are more fitting terms. Harsh words in IRC are just words, threats like these however are beyond the pale. Is this what previous communications have been like on the webring's side? Insinuations that they will harass folks in order to get you removed from your job, sharing private information to accomplish such? >>8882 I know when tengu deleted /v/ before it was restored in short order. That being said how the site functions on the backend is opaque to me. I don't know if that kind of resilince is built-in or something board owners have to toggle on.

>>8873 God this shit happened twice with /christmas/ the first guy who organized the first event was deliberately bullied by webring anons to stay away from the event because they didn't like him. What a bunch of fags, holy shit; but the worst part they get on their high horse acting like they are better than us while doing this kind of actually harmful crap. Fuck them, I'm glad I didn't got involved with them. >>8872 >Deleting a board will require admin approval from now on. Thank fucking god. This has happened way too many times as you pointed out.

>>8884 I just wouldn't have thought that some part of the webring anons would do something like this. Even tv.ch or julay would just spam you or at worst make a thread mocking you at worst. Likw what the fuck kind of anon goes after another anon for loli? And to threaten to ruin them IRL even?

>>8886 >what the fuck kind of anon goes after another anon for loli? And to threaten to ruin them IRL even? A moralist with axes to grind, for one. You also have Koreans, and people with low amygdalas as valid suspects.

>>8880 Shouldn't you be busy fucking killing yourself?

>>8885 >God this shit happened twice with /christmas/ the first guy who organized the first event was deliberately bullied by webring anons to stay away from the event because they didn't like him. What a bunch of fags, holy shit; but the worst part they get on their high horse acting like they are better than us while doing this kind of actually harmful crap. I've interacted with enough of the WR anons to know that the vast majority of them are good and decent anons. But there IS a small roving band of miscreants that sow discord constantly, especially if anything to do with 8moe is concerned. I don't know what their fucking deal is but they seem to want to do anything in their power to stop all the 8anons from ever fully coming together.

>>8881 There isn't a lot we can do about it. Something that I quickly learn is that these kind of attitudes trend to be self-destructive, the people inside the harassment groups trend to harass one another and eventually get self-dismantled out of friendly fire. The one who lives from psyops dies from psyops. And please, PLEASE for the love of god do not engage on "friendship" with other imageboards users. We all know the kind of people who uses these places, it's never a good idea. >>8883 >to not care whether you get doxxed or not. Also this. The true is with the amount of content and drama that exists on the internet if you ever get doxed you'll be forgotten in a couple of months at worst and if there's people who keep insisting on posting that data after all, then just assume they are part of a doxing IRC/Discord that would self-destruct eventually >t. I got doxxed and survived. The guys who doxxed me ended doxxed themselves and committed internet suicide

>>8889 >there IS a small roving band of miscreants that sow discord constantly And yet, they weren't that active and busy until now. And to go after the guy making the news board? During American Election season, no less? I say it's Democrats trying to mess with this website to avoid another 2016 outcome.

>>8889 >I don't know what their fucking deal is but they seem to want to do anything in their power to stop all the 8anons from ever fully coming together.

>>8873 >Letting anyone who knows your real identity ever know you like fringe cartoon porn You sealed your own fate.

>>8889 >I've interacted with enough of the WR anons So am I, that's why I'm surprised there's people on the webring who actively engage on harassment campaigns.

>>8878 He's on a new bypass but everything else matches the /news/BO's account history. 99.9% its him. I thought for a second it might be a troll taking the piss too but no. It's real. Wow I haven't been legitimately angry at anything in a long time. You pissed off one jannie on Smug and a group of people showed up out of the shadows to fucking extort you under threat of doxxing you. I've heard this fucking tune before, and it was done by people who had loose ties to both Smug and Julay, as was proven when Tengu nuked the latter and exposed the names in their IRC. If anything happens you know how to reach out.

>>8895 They're not going to be regular anons, they're just shit-stirrers who, when they heard anon cafe was shutting down, popped up to fling their shit around.

>>8873 You're probably not bad looking, but you let the "internet is srs bsns" actually take on meaning. Why couldn't you just block them? How does someone allow such unbearable faggots to reach you so closely that they have your personal information on hand. I feel only a little sorry for you, but this is the absolute fucking state of altboards. I honestly want to see your face so I can analyze your phenotype, and see what a gullible retard looks like.

>>8873 >I'm fiercely loyal to a handful of them for various reasons and the ones I'm not loyal to would run a doxxing campaign against me that could ruin my IRL life Didn't you boast on /news/ that you pulled the exact same thing to the Smug vols: https://archive.is/fj1kM#131 <Also mentioned some sensitive information (that I will not repeat it) to spook him into ceasing and desisting with his faggotry immediately And this was after you "jokingly" threatened to spam their site if they didn't properly source their news post?

>>8899 Reminds me how various members of GamerGate purposefully took over various top boards in order to inhibit their growth and keep /v/ on top. 8moe is assaulted from both inside and out.

>>8900 Yes fellow anon, that totally happened.

>>8869 The nigger running /news/ has been shilling his board across the webring. On Smug/a/, rather than treating it like usual board-shilling and just B&Ding the post, they only edited out the board link and left the rest. The /news/ BO vowed raids and spam against Smug/a/ for allegedly violating copyright on his posts, if they didn't either restore the link or delete the post. So they deleted the post, and now shilling /news/ is treated the same as any other case of shilling for off-site boards: B&D. Note that he has a years-long history of shitting up Smug, such as last year when he was spamming Bible verses out of butthurt at anons not being interested in his nofap (or noporn, whichever it was) proselytization, and in general he is a massive attention-whore. He's the kind of identityfag who doesn't need a name or avatar, and you can tell it's him just from his self-righteous saviour complex. He views himself as the hero saving the board/site/webring/imageboards/etc, and he tries to excuse any damage he does by claiming that playing a villain helps by giving the board something to hate. Note that this is not some armchair psychoanalysis bullshit. That was his own explanation. I don't know which scenario is more likely: That he's outright making shit up with this claim of doxing, or if in his unrelenting attention-whoring he couldn't resist breaking opsec and letting out information less discriminately than he should. I wish he would fulfill his repeated promises to leave Smug forever.
