EDIT 9/17: APPLICATIONS ARE NOW OPEN FOREVER. FEEL FREE TO SUBMIT ONE AT ANY TIME.
I will leave the rest of the post intact, please ignore the special stipulations.

Hello and welcome to the fist round of BO applications for zzzchan. I will outline the application process below, along with some special stipulations for this first round.

To apply for a board, you must submit your answers to the following questions: 

1. What will the focus of your board be?
2. What will the rules be?
3. How would you handle the following hypothetical scenarios:
    A. A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do?
    B. A spammer posts CP. What do you do?
    C. A spammer has slid your catalog and all unpinned threads are gone. What do you do?
4. What time range(s) would you normally be able to keep an eye on the board?
5. If your board becomes active enough, do you agree to look for one or more vol(s) to help you? Do you know anyone already?
6. Why do you want to be a moderator for this board?

STIPULATIONS FOR ROUND 1
- I will be taking applications for up to three boards, two of which are reserved. 
- The 2 reserved boards are /b/ and /tech/, the third can be anything else, though I'd prefer to hold off on porn boards.
- Applicants for /b/ do not need to provide answers to questions 1&2 or hypotheticals A&C. /b/ will be global rules only.
- /b/ & /tech/ will only be added if I get a good application for them. A lack of applications for either will not open another slot for a different board.

STIPULATIONS FOR ALL ROUNDS
- I am not looking to add /pol/ at this time. If this ever changes I will announce it.
- I am also not going to accept boards dedicated to more extreme fetishes. Nothing akin to /abdl/.
- I am not looking to poach certain boards that exist elsewhere on the webring. For example: as much as I'd love to have /k/ here I do not wish to split what's left of 8/k/ between here and anon.cafe.
- If I like you application but do not add your board in a given round, I will let you know and may even reserve a slot in the next round. Obsolete rule
- If your application falls a bit short I may prompt you to fill in the gaps. 
- I reserve the right to not accept boards based purely on their focus. This does not mean I will deny boards I have no interest in, such as /r9k/. I think variety is important for imageboards.

STIPULATIONS FOR ORPHANED/MIGRATING BOARDS FROM OTHER SITES 
- All Migrating/orphaned boards will be considered outside of the application cycle and should contact me at the same email address listed below.
- I will require proof that you are/were the BO/mod on another imageboard, or that the moderation team for the board in question has fallen apart.
- You must agree to follow all global rules for this site.
- You must agree to actively moderate the new board.
- If accepted, you must notify anons on the old board if it still exists. I do not mind If zzzchan is used as a bunker until a migration can be coordinated/ anons are comfortable making the switch. The new board will be unlisted in this type of scenario and will not be announced until ready.

Other than all that, I am now accepting applications at  [email protected]  , I look forward to your applications!

I know you're not planning on adding /pol/ "at this time", but all the same, I'd like to apply for it. Shall I send you an email with my filled out application? Either way, I hope you'll retract that part some time soon.

I'll take your application but /pol/ will bring more heat here than anything else. I want to at least get more in the way of contingencies  in place before I consider adding /pol/.


Also, I should clarify that I don't mean for applicants to post here, you only need to email me.
>>146
I think it would be better to have a /n/ - News board than a literal /pol/ board. /pol/ in name brings only underage retards and glow niggers. /pol/ is literally the entire reason for the webrings existence as hundreds of hobbyist boards on 8chan were wiped out because of retards fed posting on 8glows /pol/. The webring exists specifically so that every board doesn't get daisy chained because one retard fed posts his shooting spree.

That was posted on facebook, not 8glow.
Replies: >>150
>>149
It was posted originally on faceberg. But it was also posted on 8glow. The point is that the webring came into existence so /pol/ fed posts don't impact other boards. Turns out no one on the webring especially gives a shit about /pol/ though so there isn't any site that hosts a /pol/ board. I think it's best practice to put as much distance as possible from the /pol/ branding. If you want a natsoc board there's already /fascist/. A board for current events is the only thing I think the webring needs, but I have no interest in listening to the edgy entry level political/economic opinions of teenagers and subversive kike glow niggers, which is all /pol/ ended up becoming.
Replies: >>151
>>150
My point in bringing that up is that we are always targets. Julay should have proven just how bad things really are.
Replies: >>152
>>151
It's not just about being a target for bad actors and feds. The very nature of the /pol/ atmosphere, rule set, and branding brings a flood of normalfags and glow niggers into a website. Even if it didn't get the site taken down it would have a noticeable impact on post quality. If you moderated it to be a natsoc board then it would be pointless since /fascist/ exists. So it would have to be moderated as a open discussion board, in which case non-stop bad actors would jump in to slide and shill day and day out.

I think variations of a news/current event themed board are a much better compromise.

I don't see how that wouldn't just devolve into /pol/ anyways
Replies: >>154
>>153
Not being /pol/ in name would probably help with the spirit of the board. Of course the nature of it would probably still be "right wing", but I remember the guy in charge of Julay's news board that also ran /fit/ had a pretty good system that mandated threads be structured properly and be about news events. Obviously you wouldn't be banning people for expressing their political opinions, but with a good BO and clear rules to push the board towards higher quality and more structured thread OP's you can steer a board in a much better direction without having to be super strict on the posts themselves.

I find the approach of being strict on thread quality but relaxed on post quality making the most sense for a news style board.

/n/ is good but won't it just become a board for linking kosher websites and youtube/bitchute videos?.

Also, don't make /pol/. They already have /fascist/ and that place is slowly becoming pro-pedophilia and pro-genocide.
Replies: >>157

>pro-pedophilia
Somehow I feel you're probably misrepresenting this stance. I doubt people on /fascist/ are outright arguing for sex with prepubescent children.
>pro-genocide
It's called /fascist/ dude.
>/n/ is good but won't it just become a board for linking kosher websites and youtube/bitchute videos?.
It would depend on the person running it. I figure standard practices would apply where you archive, fill the OP with as many relevant images and videos as possible, make multiple well formatted quotes about the topic/article/video, etc.

Last few days have been bizzare. I think some gang is doing this on purpose. I see an increase in "seethe, cope" and other cuckchan memes along with pedophilia.
They draw too much heat from their glow. They've already made enemies at other boards, which is how pretty much all popular /pol/ boards end up as.
Didn't want that to happen here.

Man I really wonder how I should reply to this question. I think you're setting the standards on moderation too high if you want mods that can deal with those situations.

Anon.cafe's decision to let in those boards was weird since it was around the same time they claimed to not want to let in boards that didn't vibe with their ethos. I don't have a problem with /fascist/ but I just find it a bit ironic. I've always been of the opinion that if people can't put in the bare minimum amount of effort to disguise their language so it doesn't come off as fed posting they should have their posts deleted.

It really isn't that difficult to advocate for your edgy fringe positions without writing like a total fucking glow nigger. But I have experienced people on /fascist/ and /k/ calling that "cucking". Usually those people out themselves as cuckchan niggers in the same breath though. They're the kind of niggercattle narcissists that have no respect for anyone and the communities they share a website with. Not that I think this behavior is unique to those political boards, but the BO's of those boards really need to clamp down on fed posting type behavior.
>Yes. Someone who has proper vision on how to run a news board and keep discussions civil can pull it off.
A news board would definitely need a BO that was a cut above the rest. It should not be created lightly and probably shouldn't be created at all as much as I might enjoy having one.
>>159
Tom on fatchan said to global report CP then delete it. Not sure how Sturgeon would want it dealt with. Perma bans are meaningless against someone confident and competent enough to be comfortable posting CP on a clearnet site, or any site. They're mostly just a gesture and a good way to shrink the pool of tor nodes available. But I assume it's probably expected that you perma either way, which is fine I guess all things considered.
>A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do?
This is a pretty context based question. I figure you're just expected to expand on your moderation style and get you writing a bit so one can gauge how retarded you might be.

I’ve seen those same types of posts with the same posting style. They are most certainly /cow/ niggers trying to false flag. The same kind was seen on julay/v/ soon after Tengu took over, and also on /geimu/ in a poor attempt to subvert. 
I think the webring should be ditched solely to get away from them. /cow/ is for some reason tenacious with their board and keep making new ones on the webring, so they arent going to go away. New users may be lost due to the lack of a webring tying IB’s together, but I think it may be worth it in the long run. I’ve scarcely met a more histrionic bunch of literally autistic faggots than /cow/, man.

There's a thread per hour trigger BO's can set to trigger a captcha or lock the board entirely, along with a PPH trigger as well.

I will manually replicate the current content of the old board and update it every time after I finish jerking off. 8chan has way too many boards unlike this place so it will catch more eyes. All hentai boards on webring now are either dead or filled with tranny shit, so I want to make a change.

Pretty much dead. Broad focus.

That's it for webring.

Your focus should be here.

All hentai boards have good activity because of their history. They're delisted because it's pedophilia in some countries. They wouldn't exist without loli porn. Why didn't your place pick up? That's what you should think about for now.

I don't think a news board that doesn't allow purely theoretical political discussion will work very well on a small board. And I don't think the news part is what most people wishing for a /pol/ are most interested in.
I think when /tech/ and /b/ are going to be added those will be enough enough for now. Political discussion can just be kept on /b/ as long as it doesn't produce enough threads to slide the rest of /b/. Same thing goes for anime and hentai. I'd really love to have some kind of /a/ or /jp/ but there so many alternatives already, so maybe just making a few threads on /b/ will suffice.
>>162

Glad it's becoming extremely obvious as they have done it so often already.

Precisely, permas are useless in cases with CP so I would expect a ban to be long enough to prevent reuse by the spammer while not condemning a tor node/vpn addresses. 2 weeks would be an acceptable length. You also need to explicitly delete the file.
>This is a pretty context based question. I figure you're just expected to expand on your moderation style and get you writing a bit so one can gauge how retarded you might be.
This guy gets it.

I'm going to call it closed at 8/21 at the latest. If I get enough good applications before then I will close it early and announce the new boards. Also, Applications can be submitted at any time outside of a round, they will just be reviewed from the start of the next round if selections have already been made. I don't plan on adding more than 3 boards per round.

>>163
You already have two dead boards on other sites and would be handing out permas for any breach of your rules, which are ambiguous. Your definition of  wholesome/ neutral is not defined in any way. I would expect you to at least list of some tags which would be banned. I'm going to have to politely decline this application for this round.

I've seen an idea at antares chan. They got a /v/ and a /misc/ for everything else. I think the site owner is ready to open new boards but they have to prove themselves, whatever that means. Place is quite dead though and most of activity is at /misc/.
Replies: >>181

Guess your application got rejected.

In case you don't know there's endchan that's both tor friendly and has clearnet access. If you don't care about webring or 8chan's legacy for new users you can use that. Outdated software though.

I think he required the topic to have an active enough thread, which seems like a little autistic way to put it but it's not a bad concept.
Haven't checked the site in a while, the .onion seems to be gone and I still haven't set up open dns, don't think it would play well with my VPN setup.
5 dead boards are harder to monitor than just one that is active, but not too fast. Going too much into the direction of /b/ for everything isn't good either though, if people get too used to that they will just post fucking everything on /b/ even when there's a dedicated board, like on kc which has a shitton of boards but two of them have all the activity. A fine line between chaos and boredom I guess. That would probably discourage people from using all of them.
And it might have positive effects not leaving /b/ to dedicated /b/tards.

Its pretty obvious that Sturgeon wants no punishment on the first guy, although the exact answer (Deleting the individual post or just ignoring it). And its pretty obvious what you should do in case of CP.

>This is a pretty context based question. I figure you're just expected to expand on your moderation style and get you writing a bit so one can gauge how retarded you might be.
Disagree.
Due to law, there are no moderation differences on how someone should deal with CP, you just Ban and Delete it on sight.
Meanwhile the first question is cute but not enough to gauge moderation differences and the repeated "this guy has done NOTHING ELSE wrong", "he's a REGULAR POSTER on your board", its pretty clear Sturgeon doesn't want a punishment placed on the person in question.
So no, this doesn't gauge your moderation style.

But whatever, I was gonna say "failing this is going to be impossible even if you're a rulecuck to the max" but >>163 just answered both questions with Permanent Ban, so I suppose there really are people who wouldn't get the hint.

There are plenty of reasons to despise 8moe but despite Acid being an insufferable faggot he's made it one of the most tor friendly imageboards available. Even more so than this place considering we don't even have an onion, though obviously that's on Tom to get working on it.

Endchan is unbelievably buggy. I wouldn't ever call it a viable alternative to anything. It's borderline completely unusable.
>>187
>Disagree
Well considering he already said that's what he's doing here >>176 I'm not sure what you're disagreeing with. But now we're exposing his trade retard check secrets.
>Due to law, there are no moderation differences on how someone should deal with CP, you just Ban and Delete it on sight.
That wasn't in response to the CP question. It was in response to the guy who broke a board rule question. Also there can be a difference in a BO's understanding of how IP hashes work and why perma bans ultimately serve no purpose, as you can also read in the same earlier post I linked you.
>Meanwhile the first question is cute but not enough to gauge moderation differences and the repeated "this guy has done NOTHING ELSE wrong", "he's a REGULAR POSTER on your board", its pretty clear Sturgeon doesn't want a punishment placed on the person in question.
He already said that he isn't fishing for any specific response. I don't know why you're assuming all this shit when he's already explained his logic.
They're lurking here.

Aside from asking others what boards they wan you should ask yourself what boards you want. I've seen multiple imageboards shut down because the admins get tired of babysitting boards they don't like for users they grew to hate. You're the admin of ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZchan, which means that you have to babysit every board on the site to make sure nothing horrible that could kill Z^3chan happens.
Regarding board suggestions, people ITT have mentioned boards like /film/, /tech/, /pol/, /n/ and /hh/, but if no real demand exists from them (aside from the few people suggesting them) they'll quickly become wastelands. Instead, you should add /b/ for now, see how things evolve in all boards, and then add more boards when there are enough people to sustain them (for example, making a porn/hentai board if/when porn becomes a big part of /b/ and /v/). This way you won't have boards that are dead most of the time, like how it happens on most imageboards with free board creation.

On an unrelated note, there's something on ZZZchan that increases my CPU usage in an estrange way that didn't happen on Zchan or any other imageboard (with the exception of PLW because their animated mascots were coded like ass).

>Aside from asking others what boards they wan you should ask yourself what boards you want. I've seen multiple imageboards shut down because the admins get tired of babysitting boards they don't like for users they grew to hate. 

I've already stated that I want a variety of boards with a few exceptions and a preference for non-porn focused boards early on. zzzchan is not meant to cater exclusively to my interests. The entire point of running this process is to encourage anons to step up and give being a BO a shot. I don't want to be the only one in charge of the majority of boards on the site/bullying pasta into helping me do it since that severely limits how many can be added as our attentions are divided more and more. 

>people ITT have mentioned boards like /film/, /tech/, /pol/, /n/ and /hh/, but if no real demand exists from them they'll quickly become wastelands
I completely agree and I'd like to see some of those. One of the key ways I'm gauging interest in a given board is whether or not anyone applies for it. If one anon is willing to step up and offer to manage a board I figure that board has a better shot than if I just create it myself. So far I have received one qualifying application and it's not for any of those boards. I may have to make /b/ myself at this rate.

>On an unrelated note, there's something on ZZZchan that increases my CPU usage in an estrange way that didn't happen on Zchan or any other imageboard
I've noticed this too and I think it's the live update function. I haven't been able to get it through the proxy so far and if I cant figure it out I'm just going to disable it. We will still have timed thread updates.

You know what I hate the most about Tom and zchan admin? Both of them were overtly optimistic about their abilities, both of them shut their sites down without sufficient prior notice, and kept silent as if nothing has ever happened afterwards. No update, no apology, just pretend like nothing has ever happened. If you couldn't even bother with maintaining a site, then don't do it in the first place. I am 100% confident that this retard here will bounce in 2 weeks, making the same mistakes as the other two.

You never read the meta threads on fat. It was obviously going to get shut down, he didn't want to deal with shit like what was brought with /v/. If you had LURKED MOAR maybe you would have known that. It was set up so he could run a site running his software and get direct feedback in the process, while also gaining first hand experience running the software. He opened it up out of the kindness of his heart, not to be a bastion of security. Cut your head off then you're own.

Tom bullshitted about being able to handle whatever was thrown at the site, sure. But you keep pretending to be retarded and conflating sturgeon with the previous guy running zchan. Sturgeon was more than communicative after zchan went down with his plans to bring up a new site, and then proceeded to follow through. What do you want people who weren't responsible for the shutdown of old zchan to apologize for? You can go try to find the unknown nameless admin of old zchan yourself and beg him to atone for his sins I guess.

Also Tom was not "silent" after fatchan's shut down. He responds to emails and even posts here. He still engages with the community and helps people running instances of his site. I feel like you're being as uncharitable as possible with your expectations of people running imageboards as a hobby out of pocket.

I'm not sure what you're playing at here bud.

Sure, I'll concede that. Toward the end there he was retarded with his representation of himself or rather with his willingness to deal with all of the shit. These assurances seemed to go against what he was saying earlier - being a guy that works freelance I guess who just wanted to run a site, not necessarily trying to make a statement or prove a point.

Kind of a counter-intuitive question. Should make sure each BO understand how to configure jschan's board PPH captcha triggers instead of just asking what they might do after the fact. There's no reason a boards catalog should get raped if the board is configured properly.

To apply for a board, you must submit your answers to the following questions: 

1. What will the focus of your board be?

/co/. The focus will comics and cartoons. 

2. What will the rules be?

No threads made about anything besides comics, cartoons, and news and figures related to both topics. No porn. 

3. How would you handle the following hypothetical scenarios:
    
A. A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do?

Give them a warning and if they break the same rule again, ban them for 2 days. 

    B. A spammer posts CP. What do you do?

First, delete all the posts and permaban the poster IPs. Then, notify admin.

C. A spammer has slid your catalog and all unpinned threads are gone. What do you do?

Delete all threads and sticky an explanation. 

4. What time range(s) would you normally be able to keep an eye on the board?

9am to 1pm EST.

5. If your board becomes active enough, do you agree to look for one or more vol(s) to help you? 

Yes.

Do you know anyone already?

No.

6. Why do you want to be a moderator for this board?

There are no /co/ boards at all on the webring as far as I know. Certainly not any active ones.

I was just thinking about how much I wanted there to be a /co/ on the webring to share story times and good art with.  The downfall of old /co/ boards was the overlap between the userbase and tumblr/4chan/general leftist leanings; there are some old caps I was rereading recently, and people in them actually say things like "I wouldn't have a problem with the gay characters if they were written well."  It's surreal to realize that there were large populations of people like that on old 8chan only a few years ago.
>>712

I don't mind you posting your application here but please send me an email as well, I need some sort of concrete way to contact every BO.



 I have also been remiss in outlining a few things regarding the moderation tools of the site, and how I've decided I want certain scenarios handled.

Regarding the spam/sliding scenrio, All boards have whats called a post per hour and thread per hour trigger that can be set differently. You can set behavior for when each trigger is hit, up to locking the board if desired. 

TO HANDLE ANYTHING ON THE SAME LEVEL OF CP 
This should be handled in a couple of steps, and will allow me to take the ip of a given spammer and complain to whatever vpn they are using. Once tor is working SOON  you can simply purge anything posted via tor.
1. Delete the files but not the posts.
2. Take a screencap/record the ip hashes of the offending posts and send them to me. A picture is strongly preferred
3. Delete all but one/a handful of the posts and global report the remaining ones with a note to me so that I can get the actual IP behind the post and act accordingly.

And as always, if shit is getting bad feel free to email me. It's been very calm since changing the captcha but I'd encourage all BO's at least to get on keybase and set up a dm with me as that is the fastest way to get a hold of me in an emergency. You can find me on keybase as sturgeonfish. There's also minds but that's only going to be used for public announcements outside of the site: https://www.minds.com/sturgeonfish/ .

It isn't,but everyone on the webring knows how to access it and fitting the general umbrella of "former 8chan demographic", it might as well be.

I remember a few people asking for a /co/ board on /tg/ but never doing anything about it, which I thought was interesting. Other than /tg/'s meta thread(which refuses to use 8moe), I know Frank left multiple (USER WAS BANNED BY THIS POST) warnings in certain pro-comicsgate posts, even if they weren't bad or didn't otherwise break the rules, so I assume he was also running people he didn't like out of the board. 
So that's why I think there has to be a userbase somewhere.

I'd agree it's pretty shitty if you made a high effort good faith post about why you disagree with nofap. But considering your post here is filled with retarded concern trolling like "I thought this place value honesty and freedom of expression?", I question if you're really operating in good faith. Sure the general spirit of imageboards might be in favor of freedom of expression, but no individual board owner is obligated to any such standard. If someone made /fascist/ for example, I wouldn't want them to be forced to allow incessant retards complaining about how terrible fascism is constantly.

The current BO refuses to clean up /tv/'s or /cow/'s garbage spam, very few posts are about anime anymore and the only decently active part is the scanlation thread and the current population feels more like the retarded parts of /v/ than /animu/ as I remember it.
I don't get the point of lolreron leaving the board to Staz if he's just going to abandon the site not even a month in.
The nigger won't communicate in any way nor did he even bother to get staff from the other boards to clean up basic spam for him. Even an hour's work would improve the situation by a country mile.

Issue is that even other BOs don't get any feedback from Stazi. The last message he posted was on /meta/ three months ago, almost a week in getting the board himself.Spam won't fix it, as that shit is already being spammed there and site-shill threads have stayed up for weeks.

The frustrating bit is that some of the BOs of slower boards would be willing to clean up, as being regulars on /animu/ was part of the reason they made the boards there in the first place. It is genuinely disheartening to see that quality threads with a slow spell get slided off by /tv/'s retardation and Lolreron won't use his site admin authority about it until it slides off the stream thread itself.

The legacy name is important, it brings attention - some bad, but mostly good. I think it should be withheld until after the elections (or, rather, after Trump secures his second term) otherwise you really will invite the bad actors.

With that said, I'm going to send you an email with an application for /moonman/. There was one on 8chan but it never got restored on 8kun, and with Ron gone, it's unlikely anybody will ever fulfill my request to get it returned so I can scrape what was once on it. I'll shed tears for it later. For now, I am hoping you'll consider my request. 

For those wondering, there won't be actual political discussion threads in the board, it will be focused on making moonman videos, how to edit, TTS, suggestions, lyrics, etc etc. I think it's a venue of entertainment we've been missing. Cooking up the application now-

It only brings bad attention, you're deluding yourself if you think otherwise. It's not important in the slightest to create an overtly political board with the name /pol/. A /n/ - News & Current Events board is in my opinion not only the best compromise, but likely to foster an even better version of old 8chan /pol/ and the quality it offered, which was news threads. But since I'm not willing to run such a board myself those are just opinions for consideration.

The name of the board can really come second in considerations - the main thing to decide upon is how the board would be governed. I initially thought it'd be best to put thread OP quality under the biggest scrutiny, while inter-thread posts can enjoy much more lenience. Then I got the idea it could still be abused this way, despite the intentions, so maybe it would be best if, just like old 8/pol/, that the board would ban/delete any overt left-wing posts or mega shitposts? There are obvious pros to this:
>No question whether a liberal poster is being serious or not, just delete - thus keeping the thread from likely being derailed by them, or idiots taking them seriously and wasting everyone's time
>Dont have to deal with niggerpill-esque posters
>Board will still not be an echo-chamber, differring ideas will remain, and discourse will continue to evolve and improve - we just wouldn't have to worry about taking steps back in a discussion because some leftard/shitposter questions or opposes some underlying ideal that the serious right-wing posters have already agreed upon or understood

I should still meditate on it, but in truth I need even more data on these kinds of environments to make a better conclusion on the effectiveness of either side. As far as live hypothesis stand, I only have /dup/ and 8moe's /pol/ to draw from, and I persoanlly consider 8moe's board gimped.

I agree. Mandating high quality OP's that contain sources, archived, filled the body of the post with many quotes from the archived source, and containing as many relevant images to the story or discussion as possible. The best way to bring up the post quality is with good posts, and those all begin at the OP of a thread.
>Then I got the idea it could still be abused this way, despite the intentions, so maybe it would be best if, just like old 8/pol/, that the board would ban/delete any overt left-wing posts or mega shitposts?
Probably not a good idea. I get accused of being any number of political ideologies based on the discussion taking place. Of course if bad actors started invading it might be necessary, it's hard to tell. I think the best way to avoid bad actors shitting up a board is to avoid getting their attention in the first place, which is why I'm so against the /pol/ moniker. At the end of the day I'd like to think a political board here would move slow enough that a little bit of leftist concern trolling and shit-posting won't really matter.

I'm not personally very interested in peoples retarded political opinions anyways, which is why I like the aesthetic of a board called "News & Current Events" much better. Of course a board like that is inherently political, but if the premise is threads that are about news and current events then at the very least even someone who couldn't possibly care less about the retarded ideological squabbling can still get something out of it by checking up daily for new articles, videos, and stories.

I'm not particularly invested either way. If someone wants to take on the task of running a full blown imkampfy-like /pol/ then at the very least it'll be entertaining.

>Conflating loli and CP by announcing them both as banned in spite of CP already being global banned
>When he could have just banned loli and said nothing about it
This website allows loli. If he really thought it supported pedophilia, he wouldn't have volunteered to be a BO on this website, associating with those he believes support pedophiles and drawing activity to a site that he believes supports pedophiles. I believe it is absolutely certain he volunteered as BO in bad faith and is just here to shit the place up with drama and retardation. The fact that you got another BO application so soon after a /japan/, a board that feuds with /cow/, and /cow/'s hatred of loli, only adds to the suspicion with which you should treat this faggot.

It's incredibly weird that a new BO would randomly inject a political narrative that the rest of the site overwhelming disagrees with on a SFW board like /tech/ that has literally nothing to do with it into the boards rules. Grand conspiracies about identityfags aside it's just fucking awkward, to say the least. But I guess it depends on how autonomous Sturgeon wants individual board owners to be, or if he expects them to fall into a similar ethos with the rest of the site. Even then, the artificial nature of that specific rule should be called into question. Very fishy.

The whole process of getting /tech/ set up and the BOs initial actions are very strange, that is true. However we have hashed backups of the entire site + satellite servers every 15 minutes. It's safe to just use /tech/ and if something happens I should be able to restore it. I will be running some practice restores very soon to make sure this works

Also regarding the blocked country issue, I dont have a header passing that info through. I'll change that back.

>>937
Fatchan/v/ was my first experience with any kind of moderation role. We're well into a new era for IBs and there's plenty of room for new blood. I'd encourage anons to step up and give it a try. It's also less work on average than some of you think

>>941
tor still gets a random per thread id. I should have a fix with the next site update.


tl;dr I just wanted /tech/ and it's been a mess. This whole situation reeks and if I can get concrete evidence that it's dolphin then I will step in.

In the meantime keep an eye out and record everything. I'd advise against directly antagonizing the /tech/ BO or shitposting the board to death. That's not fair if it isn't actually dolphin and if it is I get the feeling he'll out himself sooner rather than later. 

And yes, I want to have more than circumstantial evidence for this. Everything we have so far only implies heavily. If this guy is really like what I've heard you should be able to bait something out of him that serves as concrete proof :^)

Not really anything that hasn't already been said, at least for the vetting process. You might want to have a spiel where you explain how tor posting works before giving people a board. Did he not submit his rules in his initial application? I see now in the OP they should be included. If he submitted a rule as retarded and irrelevant to /tech/ as the no loli rule was that should have been stupid enough to warrant denying the application.

I guess you could get input from whatever gvols or staff you may have for each application. I think parts of the questions you're asking should be revamped though. Specifically the parts where you're asking what someone might do if CP is posted, since what you actually want done is quite a complicated procedure. You should just explain what should be done.

Do you accept bunker applications for boards that want a backup in case something might happen to their current home? From what I've read it sounds like you're only accepting applications from existing boards where it's a given that a migration will happen but needs some time to really begin.

That's great, thank you for being willing to take bunkers. I'm the BO of /hgg/, since you mentioned that you didn't want boards dedicated to fetishes I figure I should let you know that there are some things on /hgg/ that have content in games that could be seen as extreme like amputees. There are also some things that may cause issues like 3dcg loli (ie; artificial academy, skyrim mods), since anon.cafe doesn't allow that content I think this should be mentioned as well. For what its worth Loleron has told me that Skyrim loli stuff aren't forbidden but as soon as there's a complaint then it will get banned and anime style 3dcg like stuff you'd find in Artificial Academy are fine on PLW. Those threads are dead now though so it didn't matter.

>What will the focus of your board be?
Lewd games in general. Development, playing them, etc. /hgg/
>What will the rules be?
The rules have already been established but the gist is that excessive shitposting, any shilling, and namefagging when you're not working on a game will result in a ban.
>How would you handle the following hypothetical scenarios:
>A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do?
Delete that post and ban them.
>A spammer posts CP. What do you do?
Permanently ban them and remove their posts.
>A spammer has slid your catalog and all unpinned threads are gone. What do you do?
I use built in functions to restrict thread creation/day past a certain amount so I hope this site has those working. Otherwise I would email the admin in hopes of reverting the board.
>What time range(s) would you normally be able to keep an eye on the board?
It ranges quite a bit so I don't have specific time ranges but I check on things ~2 times a day at the current activity the board has. In the past when /hgg/ was much more active I would check on it multiple times throughout the day whenever I had some free time.
> If your board becomes active enough, do you agree to look for one or more vol(s) to help you? Do you know anyone already?
We already have a few people that have been vols in the past, if they don't respond or aren't active if the board grows in popularity I'll recruit new ones.
>Why do you want to be a moderator for this board?
While we have a board on cafe they don't allow some of the content /hgg/ has had in the past (3dcg loli ie; artificial academy), prolikewoah seems to be going through some kind of trouble and I would like to set up a bunker just in case.

I don't want entire boards for specific fetishesat least for the foreseeable future, and I will never be hosting anything akin to /abdl/. General porn boards are fine and the site is established to the point where adding them makes sense.

>There are also some things that may cause issues like loli
Loli is allowed. If little cartoon girls are the hill I have to die on to prevent the fictional representation of something illegal being made as bad as real world illegal activity so be it. I don't really know how much more heat 3dcg stuff might bring but why not find out

Anyways shoot me an email and we can go from there.

Drinking is bad too, smoking is bad too. Anything action in this world can be a bad thing if overused and harmful things aren't so harmful when they are used in moderation if not making you more relaxed and focused. Being a Christian teetotaler turns you into the head up your ass mentality and the benefit one gains from not jerking off a few months is minuscule compared to some fags jerk off twice a week. If you want to be fit mentally and physically, most of it is due to hard work and proper nutrition, not being a gay monk for a year with feel before real mentality. All that time you spend researching about the benefit of not touching your cock could have been spent on, you know, working out till you pass out.

Congratulations on completely ignoring the point made about the fact masturbation is being addressed in isolation. Masturbating is bad. Consuming porn is bad. Drinking is bad. Smoking is bad. Not masturbating is a superior decision to choosing to masturbate, this is an indisputable fact.

I didn't say that masturbating is the worst vice, or that anyone should prioritize cutting that vice out of their lives as if that alone would solve all their problems. I just said masturbation is bad, and this much is indisputable.

Masturbating isn't a bad thing, it's the addiction that is bad. The reason why nofap is bad is because it shames people for even think about touching their dicks. Jerking off is a natural behavior, people have sexual desire and sometimes it needs to be released. Men have it, women have it, all moving creatures have it. It is simply the desire to mate and procreate. It’s a fucking natural behavior. It’s not something else you put in your body or your mind, it’s simply a natural feeling released inside your body. The fact  that you idiots reject this part of your nature so violently shows how detached you are. If you don't release it, you crave it. It's not the same thing as drug withdrawal because it's a natural thing to do. If you don't release your semen, what the fuck are you doing? Elitist retards think he's the top of the fucking world for not jerking off for a year. Pathetic. If you want to be a monk then shut the fuck up and do it, don't shame people for touching his dick. Consuming 3d porn is always bad because it's fucking 3dpd. If quitting 3dpd porn is a challenge to you then you're still a retarded normalniggershit anyway. If you don’t watch porn then you do not have to worry about the addiction at all. You just rub one out and move on.

Try living with a roommate and see how fast you stop caring about this stupid shit.

Imagine unironically spouting "it's natural so it's good". Nature is a buzzword. It means nothing and has no bearing on whether or not something is healthy or productive for the individual or for society. We know that masturbation and pornography is at scale bad for society. It doesn't matter if you concoct this very specific scenario where you have some carefully devised ritual to make sure that you only ever jerk off in a healthy manner that prevents ""addiction"", another (((psychological))) buzzword.

We do not address moral problems at an individual level for a reason, because it's fucking retarded and pointless. If people consistently get ""addicted"" to masturbation and porn so consistently that it causes rampant depression and sexual incompetence in young men then we can confidently assert that masturbation and porn are bad when we practically apply them to hundreds of millions of people.
>Consuming 3d porn is always bad because it's fucking 3dpd.

I don't give a shit what they think. But in the spirit of the webring it's best to have some degree of decentralization. If a board simply won't be accepted anywhere else in the webring then it's fine, but if a board can be accepted onto anon.cafe then it probably should go there to help decentralize the activity.

I wouldn't say it's that terrible to have a centralized "hub" in the webring, but we do know from experience that it can end very badly like with Julay. And I wouldn't say anyone necessarily should feel obligated to deny boards they'd be willing to host just because they exist elsewhere, or to artificially limit their own sites growth on principle. But when something has a long established presence on anon.cafe suddenly migrating that board here because some difficulty has occurred is kind of silly.

There's nothing wrong with anon.cafe and if they're willing to host /k/ then anon.cafe should be where /k/ stays. Though I suppose you could make the argument that the major boards of anon.cafe are all boards that fundamentally clash with the entire ethos of the website, but that's on the admin and his weird choices of board acceptance.

It's a complicated issue that doesn't have a clear answer. But part of me does want zzzchan to become the spooky titan that blacked.moe fags fear it being just to watch them get butthurt.
>>1222
I'm starting to hate blacked.moe even more now.
At first I was indifferent to them even though I now that there admins aren't the most (((trusted))) people out there but the existence of infinity like board is important, but when zzzchan appeared they all went like "It's not needed anymore" or "It's honeypot don't go in" they started shitting on us first but when anons shit on them they all get defensive and say "dude stop it we need to coexist and shit like that" insisting that we are the troublemakers.
And don't forget about the many instances when they scrap the Gamenight OP without the host consent, when it even lead them to copy over the wrong IP which was the funniest shit ever, and even (((mark))) came to that thread and derailed himself saying that "PastaBO is a cunt" but the users there complained that we brought over that drama.

I would avoid attacking the random comments of anonymous retards. If you want to criticize blacked.moe there's plenty of ammunition in Mark and Acid's comments alone. Shitting on blacked.moe is good bants but I do think we should avoid legitimate full blown d&c autism. It's good that an infinity style imageboard exists that is at least half ran by someone connected to the culture and isn't a glow nigger (codexx). And it's even better that they're in the works to "join" the webring.

Attack people on points that matter and have merit. Bully people because it's fun. But we should not enable a goon d&c culture where people start operating in bad faith out of autistic tribalism. Not that I'm accusing you of this, of course.

Doubt it, but it would be nice to evolve into some sort of standardized imageboard protocol and have software to interface with them that aren't browsers. Probably not worth the effort though. And the webring doesn't actually do anything to federate shit, it's just a list of imageboards.

>board from PLW have already started to migrate here like with /japan/
/japan/ went to cakechan first before going down and then went off the webring on some board to avoid /cow/niggers before going back to the webring again here.And this was after a month or two from Tengu being silent on the webring.The push to move there was before /japan/ showed up again

This is the lowest effort shit I've seen in quite awhile. You could at least try and make this entertaining for me. If the infamous zigger goon is so "omnipresent" then you could find at least a single example of of an anonymous poster shilling the site. I'm not even asking you to find a credible post that is even worth considering, just literally any post at all and you can't even muster that. What a disappointing exchange this has been.

1. What will the focus of your board be?
Discussion of Anime & Manga.

2. What will the rules be?
Rules
0. All global rules apply: https://zzzchan.xyz/rules.html
1. /a/ is a primarily SFW board. NSFW is only allowed if spoilered. Questionable SFW images OK.
2. Keep the topics related to Anime & Manga.
3. /jp/ content is allowed except vtubers and 3DPD idols.
4. Low quality shitposting will be met with deletion and an immediate ban (frogposting, wojaks, etc.). Otherwise, shitposting is allowed but try not to excessively shitpost or derail threads.
5. Name/avatar/tripfagging without a reason should be avoided.

3. How would you handle the following hypothetical scenarios:
    A. A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do?
Warn the user (delete post and ban 1h or keep message up and ban 1h)
    B. A spammer posts CP. What do you do?
Delete the post and b&
    C. A spammer has slid your catalog and all unpinned threads are gone. What do you do?
Lock the board if there is an option for that, delete the spam, make a sticky explanation thread, then hope there are backups of the old threads that can be restored.

4. What time range(s) would you normally be able to keep an eye on the board?
7AM EST-12AM EST on the weekdays, 2PM-1AM EST on the weekends. Moderation time ranges might change in the future.

5. If your board becomes active enough, do you agree to look for one or more vol(s) to help you? Do you know anyone already?
Yes. I know one friend, but he is a bit hesitant on becoming a vol.

6. Why do you want to be a moderator for this board?
I want an actually good /a/ board, but nobody seems to be providing one. There has been demands of zzz/a/ recently, in /b/ for example: >>>/b/8254
I'm willing to step up as the /a/ BO here despite me having one board here already - /tech/. Smug /a/ is pretty slow outside the offtopic cafe threads and vtuber threads and there is not much to do there anyways. ProLikeWoah /animu/ is okay, but the site is on life support as I've heard around, and the admin can suddenly pull the plug and kill the site forever at anytime(?)

Username is hisuimeido

I sent an email, but I'm posting the application here anyways.

LynxChan fucking sucks. Plus the site is a little slow for some odd reason. There's a vtuber thread, but so far I haven't seen any vtuber posts outside the vtuber threads. I imagine there is at least one vtuber post outside, but there is probably none compared to smugcuck.
It's a pretty bad thing that /animu/ is the only active non-rulecucked board on the webring, and they most likely don't have a fallback bunker. I don't want smugcuck to be the only active anime board on the webring. I think they aren't really active outside their cafe and vtuber threads anyways.

The onion ID is randomized, but persistent for each thread instead of 00000 for some unknown reason.
The exit node ID is randomized all the time just like posting under a different VPN node.

Then I've really gotta ask what it is you want out of an anime board. Smug/a/ is rulecucked beyond belief and has a discord/IRC cabal with most of the traffic in the cafe(offtopic) and stream threads BUT has the most overall visitors and has the most stable website, OR you can go with /animu/ which is on an unstable website but offers the most freedom without entering /b/-tier moderation, and you don't need to walk on eggshells when you post so honesty is easy to find.
Replies: >>1502
>>1501
I like Smug but it doesn't have enough space, so it's all seasonal (moe) anime and threads that have a tradition. I'd like to discuss anime that is beyond that scope without necessarily buying into the chaotic ways of /animu/ or using Lynxchan in general, which is just a pain in the ass.
Also I think /a/ will have a positive influence on site culture in general. Look around and you'll find a ton of examples how imageboards that aren't at least a bit rooted in anime culture go to shit. It'd be stupid to have a million boards but no /a/.
Take the top 20 boards in the webring and make copies of those boards, we need to centralize everything here. Mark was right, decentralization is gay.

No it isn't, PLW suck ass and is filled with some normalfags. Vtube shit also takes up most discussions on their board as well. There's no harm in having our own /a/.
/a/ is offlimits until there's actually enough posters to support it.

I'm going to bitch at anyone that makes dumb nonsensical decisions.
And nonsense arguments for that matter; dead shitboards by definition don't make other actually active boards die. I want as many dead shitboards as are fucking necessary.
So let's go on to "necessary". First of all, fuck you; second of all, who the fuck gets to decide how many boards are necessary? Fucking nobody, so fuck you. 
The only limit to how many people can make a fucking board is the site owner and potential board owners. Site owners can decide who makes a board and how many boards they have; board owners on the other hand should have no fucking say over how many different idiotic half-baked simulcra of their own board pop up. Sure they can sit on their fucking board name, but they can't just up and say, "Hey everybody no more anime boards because I said so".
This, in other words, is another reason why >>1604's decision is an illogical mind-bender.
Anyone can make a fucking anime board if they ask sturgeon nicely. One guy can't just hold it hostage, and implying that he can is fucking stupid

They sure don't at first, but there's only so many lurkers around to stick with a certain board. Not to mention that being endlessly divided into a billion pieces is worse than being united. It's like balkanizing over and over doesn't work or something.
>So let's go on to "necessary". First of all, fuck you;
Thanks mate, it's better than I'd get from passive aggressive cunts, rare sight these days
>second of all, who the fuck gets to decide how many boards are necessary?
The webring at the time of writing numbers more than a hundred boards. Vast majority of these are empty boards with no traffic - and if we add 8moe's boards, fucking duplicates like /A/ that never really panned out. Now we can keep on splitting, but it's a pain to browse 6 different boards with the same name on it and fags will either quit (silently or rather loudly) or eventually push for centralization on one board. We can skip all that right now if you just use PLW instead of janny palace and stir some shit and FUCKING DO SOMETHING if you hate the mods there.

I don't know why he doesn't just tell them to fuck off. It would help to clarify a lot of issues with the current situation.
Although I would personally call this a complete non-issue that only a liberal faggot would take as a personal affront and an excuse to tirade endlessly about a tyranny that's only in their head. If it was a real issue they'd instead be doing what this site owner did about the fatchan-zchan situation. You know, start their own webring site and make it about /a/ or something, instead of ebegging in a meta thread because "plw vtuber bad" or "smug jannies del me help".

It doesn't need a real answer, it's only escalating in their heads.

>>1609
Yes, fuck, I know the constant split fucks with people who want a larger community or more focused discussion. But, having dead boards at least gives lurkers the option of migrating instead of feeling like they need to complain or quit. Having alternatives to PLW and smug can retain the communities of each in seperate parts, instead of having it fray apart into nonexistence.
But yeah fuck if the boards that exist currently can work then why the dick not migrate there?

Sturg will likely end up giving the /a/ to dolphin (by mistake) or to kime (because he’s a massive brown noser), and I don’t want to imagine being forced to use an /a/ by either of them, so I’ll stick with PLW, thanks.

I hope my ID doesn't change
>>1701
/fa/, /vhs/, and /x/ are niche topic boards and are expected to have low activity. /a/ on the other hand covers a popular topic and other topics like otaku culture if allowed, so it is expected to have decent speed, just not smug average PPH for now. Sturgeon still fears of zzz/a/ either being a dead board similar to /tg/ and /k/ or afraid of causing board wars with PLW /animu/ or even smug /a/. Still not creating /a/ at this point is dumb.
This might as well be my second /a/ application but not exactly in the format sturgeon defined.

I intend for zzz/a/ to be an alternative to /animu/ and smug /a/ instead of being an unofficial /animu/ bunker. If zzz/a/ were to become an /animu/ bunker, the rules would be more different than what I have drafted myself. This board will have less strict rules than smug /a/ and I will never create a clone of Hoihoi or never add similar wordfilters. I'm not even from the smug meido team whatever that is called at all and I don't come from smug /a/.
Onto reasons on why zzz/a/ will not fail like the dead boards mentioned earlier and how possible board wars won't be so bad.
<zzz/a/ will be dead
It won't be dead if there are anons besides the petition signatures willing to post on zzz/a/. After all creating zzz/a/ is in high demand by anons who post in this site regularly. >>1618 did mention about /v/ anons wanting /a/ on this site, but I don't know for sure as I don't browse /v/ often these days although I did happen to see a few demands for zzz/a/ in the past, but I haven't saved the post screencaps and I don't know where the posts are.
<zzz/a/ will cause board wars
I can't say that no board wars will happen. I expect that other webring boards whatever those might be will end up bad faith posting somewhere on the board. I have doubts that zzz/a/ would automatically "steal" all /animu/ and smug /a/ anons due to the "no vtubers" rule I will never remove. But I hope that board wars don't happen.

So far these are the drafted rules, a little different from my previous draft. I might work more on the rules after making this essaypost. I don't intend to remove the "no vtubers" rule ever. Suggestions for the rules are welcome.
Rules
0. All global rules apply: https://zzzchan.xyz/rules.html
1. /a/ is a primarily SFW board. NSFW is only allowed if spoilered. Questionable SFW images OK.
2. Keep the topics related to Anime and manga, Light Novels, Otaku Culture, and other similar media.
3. Discussion about Virtual Youtubers and posting Virtual Youtuber media are banned from /a/.
4. Low quality shitposting will be met with deletion and an immediate ban (frogposting, wojaks, etc.). Otherwise, shitposting is allowed but try not to excessively shitpost or derail threads.
5. Name/avatar/tripfagging without a reason should be avoided.

I'll add something else. It might be a good idea to create zzz/a/ under one condition, it must endure a trial run. After some time like a week or two, decide to either lock and unlist if it fails, or keep it open if it does well.
>>1703
I won't be including the posting guidelines thing on the /a/ sticky for a while or preferably, ever. I don't really need to include them anyways.

Alright, the people have spoken and the circumstances are far different here than they were with /tg/ or /k/. Even if the petition is 100% samefagging people have been asking for /a/ for a while now. I'm willing to have a trial run, if the board stays alive past a certain amount of time which will be over 2 weeks. I will only give a hard date to hisuimeido as to keep this experiment valid but I want to give the board plenty of time to get established.

BEFORE I DO THIS I WANT TO HEAR FROM ANONS ON THESE POINTS
1. Why do you want /a/ here? I'm aware of some anons not liking the meido way of moderation on smug specifically but what would be the main draw here as opposed to /animu/? I've never spent much time on any /a/ so I'm not too familiar with either.

2. What does a reasonable level of activity for a new /a/ with two alternatives on the ring already look like? What should be considered a pass for the trial period? I'm not looking to set an overly high bar (anything's better than zzz/tg/ really) but I'd be very happy to see near-/b/ levels of activity. What are /a/nons hoping for?

My main motivation in being selective with adding boards is that I do not want a catalog of dead boards and I have made mistakes, not gatekeeping based on board focus. So far the two duplicate boards I've added have gone nowhere. This situation is quite different so I'm down to experiment with adding /a/ with a trial period. I'll email hisuimeido and we'll go from there after reviewing responses to the points above.

I don't go to smug/a/ because of it's moderation so I can't talk to much about but /animu/ is kinda /b/ with anime theme, it's like 8moe/v/ most of the activity is in the meta threads or the vtuber threads which are fucking cancer, I want an /a/ board that's like zzz/v/ activity is spread out across different threads about ACTUAL VIDYA GAMES and there is actual effort put into them, and let's not forget that PLW is in life-support and will die out eventually if the admin doesn't do anything to it.

I kinda want something like /vhs/ or above it, If you want more activity events streams and those kind of things help alot.
I believe it will be successful, just look at zzz/v/ it's the second most active /v/ out there, is because mark isn't the BO no there are many boards out there without mark, it's successful because of the content in it and people come here to talk about vidya games not about the latest twitter post made by who, and you can see it in the gamenights the threads in zzz/v/ reach 200 posts or even the bumplimit while 8moe/v/ threads don't break the 50 post mark.
So if zzz/a/ BO manage to fill his board with great content that makes people want to engage then no matter how many alternative anons will come here.

What you want some random fags to chime in or something? I don't even fucking browse /a/. Here's my bullshit opinions.
1. More boards allows niggers who get fucked over in one place to migrate to another without hassle. Bigger boards tend to die explosively and require bunkers anyway. I don't fucking know anything beyond this.
2. You and I both fucking know that someone is going to shitstir about "muh pph" if activity is the basis for passing the trial period. A pass should be holistic and consider consider the outcome of a non-blind trial period. Are niggers going to be jannied left and right to increase "quality"? Are there going to be faggots that decide to (you) every single fucking poster so they can increase the post count? Is there going to be an excessively low UID count due to TOR usage? Fuck you, you figure this shit out.

>Why do you want /a/ here?
As a user of both smug/a/ and /animu/, I don't. The primary "competitor" to a z/a/ board would clearly be /animu/. While I don't think we need another anime board, I do recognize the concerns about the /animu/ administration since it seems like they're not very enthusiastic about running the site anymore and keep forgetting the https certs and shit. There's also lynxchan which has a clearly worse frontend than jschan.

Their meta thread is essentially the same as /a/'s /cafe/, and /cafe/ seems to be one of the biggest criticisms of /a/ itself. A large portion of the board activity is in these shitty off topic chat threads instead of actual anime/manga related threads.

Vtubers are another concern that's in my opinion fairly complicated. While I'm not against vtubers in theory, the reality is that the threads about vtubers get closer to normalfag simp territory than anything else in these imageboards. There's an attractive concept within the subject (live anime characters) that's merged with this gay female-streamer-with-anime-avatar worship, they're often not even Japanese anymore. You could separate those two and get only the good part of vtubers given good enough moderators, but I doubt anyone is ready to either do or accept that. I don't agree with banning them for the same reasons as other people do, but I'd ban them just because there's already /a/ and /animu/ that have very popular vtuber threads, so you might as well tell people to go to one of those boards for that.

>what would be the main draw here
Talking strictly about how to make a board that stands out, I'd want an anime board that allows fun and "low effort" threads, but also recognizes the difference between fun threads and shitty cuckchan threads and bait. People seem very quick to merge funposting and aggravating bait threads in their head when they want to allow fun. /a/ has pretty high standards about posting and it's often very hard to tell what's acceptable and what isn't, and /animu/, although they claim very insistently to be "taking it easy", seem often very uptight and volatile about everything and are constantly on the lookout for various boogiemen (like /a/). So I'd like to discourage any and all meta drama outside of meta threads (which would ideally have a similar policy as the /v/ here, i.e. only created every so often). In some sense my primary issue with /animu/ isn't the board itself, but the attitude of the users.

>>1707
1. An owner that hasn't checked out or rulecucks to the extreme would be the main selling points. Less of a focus on vtubers would be nice for the serious discussion crowd. Both major choices currently feel like a black hole of vtuber worship and meta. As it stands, I don't have a good place to discuss seasonal cuckime right now.
2. I'd hope for 5 regular posters. Anything after that is gravy. My tolerance for slow may be higher than most.

Frankly, I read the posts in /animu/'s vtuber thread and I'd estimate 80% of the guys in there are cuckchan/reddit crossposters. They have the most normalfag-tier opinions. I also don't think they post on the rest of the website very much if at all so it does its job as a containment thread.

/a/ in general seems to attract a different type of poster. Smug/a/ has weird cafe threads with trannies in them, PLW has vtuber normalniggers. Honestly it seems like boards centered around mainstream passive media attract normalfags more than anything else. It's like how /tv/ has nothing do with television, /a/ is 90% cafe watercooler posting, PLW is 90% vtuber shit which isn't anime, all these passive media boards just end up being these weird entry points for lonely retards to circlejerk about off-topic bullshit. But I don't have a dog in this fight either way since I never actually post on anime boards.

Why do you normalfags keep using this ploy of pretending that vtuber fans are the normalfags? And why do you keep talking about them so much?

I oppose this on the grounds that it will just divide user groups more, and that's the least an /a/ needs considering people are content with /animu/ and smug/a/, with the only opposition being one or two literal /tv/ niggers (they admitted as such during one of the zzz game nights, I swear unto you) having an autistic problem with vtubers.

Normalfags are often ones that WATCH them and vtubers don't communicate on imageboards. There is a sneaking suspicion that Ame low-key shitposts on 4chan /jp/ generals, but there's plausible deniability everywhere. Also there's commy They're the ones in youtube comments and they can migrate from there to 4/jp/ to obscure shitboards like animu. There, that's the basis. You still have none but Y-YOU'RE THE REAL NORMALFAGS

Vtubers aren't anime, they're streamers with Live2D avatars. People "whining" often hate the "streamer" aspect of it, not the animation. That's all there is to it. They COULD hate the "anime" side, but it doesn't happen too often. If you hate them, argue with them and win.

>1. Why do you want /a/ here? I'm aware of some anons not liking the meido way of moderation on smug specifically but what would be the main draw here as opposed to /animu/? I've never spent much time on any /a/ so I'm not too familiar with either.
I don't simply want it as a replacement for /animu/. I actually prefer smug but I think the way it is moderated its uses are just too limited. By that I mean especially that it's basically all seasonal anime and it seems to be intended this way. There isn't really enough space for other stuff on there, so everything that isn't seasonalshit gets either bullied off the catalog or confined in a few threads like the backlog one. For example I want a fucking City Hunter thread and a fucking Space Battleship Yamato thread.
>2. What does a reasonable level of activity for a new /a/ with two alternatives on the ring already look like? What should be considered a pass for the trial period? I'm not looking to set an overly high bar (anything's better than zzz/tg/ really) but I'd be very happy to see near-/b/ levels of activity. What are /a/nons hoping for?
Of course it would be nice if it was really active but I wouldn't mind if it was like /japan/ either. Ultimately you decide how dead of a board you want to tolerate.

This will literally go nowhere. You will just keep saying "you're him! you're that guy! I know you! you made that post 17 months ago on WhoCaresChan" and never go anywhere with it. You think that merely knowing or believing to know someone from another board is itself some kind of argument, which it isn't. But you won't even be able to explain why it's an argument, or why it matters.

And this is a prime example of normalfaggotry right here. Being more invested in user's identities rather than what they say. Trying to stir up some kind of personal drama even when everyone is being anonymous.

I don't fear it, it's just that the way this is going, /animu/ will house most of the "antis" that are migrating from holo/jp/ generals over at cuckchan. They're gonna spill over to the rest of the board and while I do not mind that at all since it's new blood, niggers will BITCH and that's a crisis. /animu/ has been a stout proponent of using the DEL button on things they claim as "low quality" and they will not stop, ever, so it's prudent to throw them under the bus here for the sake of the free shitposts AND potential board quality.

This may surprise you, being a tengu and all, but leaving shitposts up and removing shitposts up will make people leave/wary in equal measure. Leaving shitposts up makes the mods seem weak and the posters will want to migrate somewhere they feel is better kept clean. Banning shitposts might anger people such as yourself who fear the mods are too overbearing. You're damned if you do, damned if you don't, but I'll say moderation is fine in moderation (get it)? Otherwise everything turns into /b/ and I'll bet the bottom dollar that that would piss more people off than a moderator making a wrong decision once in a while.

Yeah, I can't prove it obviously, so you can only take it at my word but I only posted one post. I can't quote it perfectly but it was along the lines of "vtuber fans get cucked out of yet another vtuber while all they can do is cry about it. China always wins". Perma-banned.
ban reason was something like "chinese chill/ wumao" or something like that. If you think I deserved it, that's up to you. I don't think I did, new mod is probably a vtuber fan that got upset about it, I would imagine.

Wrong. It takes true strength not to smash that motherfucking del button whenever you see something that makes you upset. You may not have seen this but sometimes when a mod makes a single mistake they lose their board. Like when old /k/ BO ousted himself as a glower recently. It's all about perception of those in power.
>>1790
I know all I need to know, that vtubers aren't anime. If an anime board allows vtuber it is essentially the same thing as a /v/ board having a thread dedicated to e-celebs. If that specific /v/'s culture permits that kind of normalfaggotry then so be it, but evidently there's an /a/ audience for people that don't want threads dedicated to retarded e-celebs. You've yet to propose a compelling argument in favor of them despite claiming to be intimately involved in the boards cultures. There's nothing artificial about wanting a /a/ free from e-celeb threads. Just as there's nothing artificial about z/v/ wanting a /v/ free from Mark's bizarre catch all /pol/ GG threads. The only thing artificial here is your concern trolling.

What is "right" and what is "wrong" in these kinds of things is malleable, not constant. A board consists of posters and if you let them post good shit the board will be better for it and /animu/ baleets "low-effort" as if it can't produce "high-effort".
>Banning shitposts might anger people such as yourself who fear the mods are too overbearing. You're damned if you do, damned if you don't, but I'll say moderation is fine in moderation (get it)?

Their business model is fundamentally not unique, the only difference is that it takes place on the internet, and your boomer-tier brains thinks this somehow makes it completely different.

Superchat readings are for reading superchats that were already submitted.

I searched for 1 and a half minute on the internet so I'm basically an expert in all work related matters.

The definition of neither "job" nor "work" is not specific enough to determine how you make money, only that you do something and get money from it. Therefore being a vtuber or a streamer can be considered a job and work. "Work" also does not have to involve payment at all, if you're a slave cutting bricks for no payment, you're still doing work. However work is specifically about exerting effort, so if you make a website and get money from it while sitting on a beach chair in Hawaii, then you have a job as the owner of the website but you're mostly not doing any work.

It MAKES the show RESPECTABLE, as it's possible to improve the pre-defined act or train in it's performance, if it's to be something made on the spot like improvisation comedy. The format contributes to increase in proficiency. Here you just have streaming schedules. No proper format or attempt at it.

The intent of "superchat reading" streams is "receiving superchats and then using the stream to read them". No overt intent, but it's THERE. THAT is e-begging and it's on another level.

Streaming check.

Everything else is irrelevant to this argument.
Even if the "business model" nonsense is not unique, there are plenty of prior examples (I'm gong to compare homolive to Ninja's twitch streams. Stop me.) on why this particular "business model" is a bad idea.

Work doesn't have to be respectable, and what you think is respectable is not necessarily indicative of what someone else or most people think is respectable, so this is irrelevant.

And there obviously is a format to streams anyway. There a few types of streams that most streamers will do over and over again.

>The intent of "superchat reading" streams is "receiving superchats and then using the stream to read them". No overt intent, but it's THERE. THAT is e-begging and it's on another level.
It's etiquette to thank people by name when they give a superchat. Popular streamers get so many that they'll either read them after the stream has basically ended, or they have a separate stream where they read them. There is no begging going on here.

>Streaming check.

Re-read my post again, Cover. Inc. wants donations and they're the source of their money. Example - Coco, biggest earning homoJP streamer at one point in time went and bitched about how much money she got after youtube commission, homolive commission, yaks commission etc etc. So it's reasonable to assume most of the cash goes to them. The INTENT is to get donations so they do things towards that end. THAT is e-begging on another level. I'll add that almost no successful streamers outright beg to your face unless they're really desperate and will at best link their patreon or something.

>Streaming doesn't change anything.

brilliant autist anon on the scene here. let's go on a deep dive

I don't think so. I have never seen evidencefag refer to vtubers, or women in general as degrading words for females such as bitch, whore, slut, 3DPD, kikes of genders, coalburners, etc. I believe this is because he is a reddit feminist
evidencefag does not write entire paragraphs like that, he takes your post, splices it with quoted greentext and responds categorically
he also does not post overtly aggressive things like "you should learn to keep your mouth shut". the only way this would be him if this is a ragepost
I have never seen him use the word rulecuck
the patterns in his approach to "debate" is that he will accuse you of something and keep pushing that point without end. example: in the initial thread I came to learn of his existence, the line he kept repeating is: why do you hate Vtubers? why are you in this thread if you hate vtubers? - even if anons responded that they did not hate vtubers, he would still reply over and over with why do you hate vtubers. In this thread, you can see the same behavior by calling everyone normalfags repeatedly without basis.
the thread that branded him his moniker of "evidencefag" was him asking people over and over, initially, if they had any evidence that one of the vtubers was not a virgin or had a boyfriend, something along those lines. this then devolved into him replying to almost any reply with "do you have evidence for that?".

this brilliant detective's analysis: he (the evidencefag in question) is a chronic beta-male with white knight obession. it remains unconfirmed if he has given any money to the vtuber whores, but it is confirmed that they will never have sex with him.

There are various arguments on why it's not respected, legitimate or not legitimate. Privateers were a legitimate line of work. They're still pirates under a different name. Chalk that up to a difference of opinion, but do not ignore the arguments and sweep them under the rug.

Yes, reddit is full of morons, but please argue. I don't consider streaming related to traditional "work" even if you frame it as tangentially related because performers exist. However, even performers can be skilled and not skilled and have variety of acts at their disposal. I can respect it BASED ON THAT FACT. Then your kind says the equivalent of "uh WELL THAT'S SUBJECTIVE" even though it's just video games or drawing or something else equally vain with cute voice. It's not equal to having a career as something like an actor, streamers improving because of constraints of their format almost never happens. coco stopped doing oc and now rips off pewdiepie clap clap next meme

Of course it's not worth anything to you, you're invested. My criticism is for those that want to look inside the hole, not fall into it.

>Yes, reddit is full of morons, but please argue. I don't consider streaming related to traditional "work" even if you frame it as tangentially related because performers exist. However, even performers can be skilled and not skilled and have variety of acts at their disposal. I can respect it BASED ON THAT FACT. Then your kind says the equivalent of "uh WELL THAT'S SUBJECTIVE" even though it's just video games or drawing or something else equally vain with cute voice. It's not equal to having a career as something like an actor, streamers improving because of constraints of their format almost never happens. coco stopped doing oc and now rips off pewdiepie clap clap next meme
Streaming is work whether you like it or not. In the case of hololive they're even company employees who are paid some kind of salary. Your respect or lack of respect remains irrelevant. Video games are a professional sport, streaming is a way to make millions, and you are delusional if you think drawing is meaningless. The vast majority of Coco's content, which you've never watched, is not meme reviews.

analysis: very low chance of this being the evidencefag. the posting pattern is too different. if it was a long thread of him splicing down posts line per line then breaking down towards the end into an incoherent ragepost then it might be, but this is not the case. the formatting, expressions used, and general incoherence does not match evidencefag's usual posting mannerism. Only the over-use of the word normalfag/normalnigger matches.

my conclusion: calling people normalfags and normalniggers is becoming more and more common as a blanket term to disregard anything someone says on the webring.

>Which is not begging.
How is it not begging? Vtuber's line of ""work""'s income depends from donations. Equipment and some such of big studios (cover/whoever owns niji) comes from it, presumably. They depend on that. The intent is begging and you've made no attempt to say otherwise.
>They improve at their jobs by continuously doing it. Their job is entertainment. Talking, singing, drawing, gaming, concerts. And how is relevant exactly?
They do not, continuous improvement yielded no fruit. It's all the same shit if you take long running vtubers. They at best went from amateur voice tones from where they were independent to slightly better ones and I've already provided an example where one "improvement" went into the opposite direction.
>This is a meaningless distinction.
It's your opinion. I can call it meaningless too. Argue.
>Your lack of respect for something is irrelevant. You are a single person of no importance.
Yet reasons behind the lack of respect still exist and will continue to haunt your kind.
>Why would your lack of respect for something have anything to do with this?
Giving streamers that use youtube donations to run a business with attention of millions of people and actively promoting them isn't fine.
And then calling someone that refuses to do that "normalfag" because they don't want to support that instead of acting like a normalfag
that's not fine either
refute reasons behind these things
>It can also lead to more donations, but how is that supposed to be a problem?
Treating donations as main income.
>Streaming is work whether you like it or not. In the case of hololive they're even company employees who are paid some kind of salary. 
By definition if there's a contract (there is). Someone could contract me to watch paint dry for an hour and it'd be the same kind of work.
>Your respect or lack of respect remains irrelevant. Video games are a professional sport, streaming is a way to make millions, and you are delusional if you think drawing is meaningless. 
And yet my lack of respect limits you because it makes sense. Cope. Video games are only a professional sport when made into a show (next to no market for betting on games, there's just tourneys) and streaming is STILL a money vacuum for lonely people, which is what I said before.
And drawing isn't meaningless, what are you talking about. I can respect commissions, but you're just doing random shit that tries to be vaguely entertaining with no expectations but to make the Live2D avatar look cute, sound cute and maintain a persona.

Well, you refuse to fukken read and that's what happens. Did you finish sperging out yet? Here's a clear and crisp hot take my friend. 

My basic argument is, most of vtuber industry's end goal is GETTING DONATIONS as it's the bulk of the profit. When your BUSINESS STRATEGY is GETTING DONATIONS, you cannot afford a lot of compromises on GETTING DONATIONS so your BUSINESS STRATEGY's GOAL becomes the same as BEGGING, GETTING MONEY FROM DONATIONS. STREAMERS IN GENERAL DO THIS SHIT. IT SHOULD NOT BE RESPECTED but THEY CAN REDEEM THEMSELVES should they post QUALITY or otherwise GOOD SHIT. Many vtubers DO.

Even if you say IT'S IRRELEVANT WHETHER THEY ARE RESPECTED OR NOT THEY WORK OK their BUSINESS STRATEGY REMAINS TO BEG FOR PROFIT.

I have given you multiple chances to refute or defend this. You say big agencies have a salary, yet money from begging directly contrubutes to their value, often more than "sub count". You did nothing but act dumb. You, my friend, are inferior.

Continuously doing those things makes you better at them.

Having a donation-centric income will inevitably steer the one that depends on it towards pandering to common denominator as it becomes more profitable on paper (and probably in reality).

Doubt from the basic premise of this argument "where does the money go" and "how does this operation is even run" is your limiter. That thought inside people's heads.

All that aside, I've given plenty of valid reasons towards why that's not a good idea to enable them or maybe even support them. Like you said, it does not matter because we're just "not important", so by turning that around, we're not your audience and instead of agreeing or disagreeing you choose to shout "ANTI".

>You said drawing is "vapid." And now you're suddenly arguing that drawing only matters if you're doing it directly for money.
As a focus of a "vtube" stream as an activity, you stream SOMETHING with your avatar. It is typical to play vidya or draw; and other VAIN things like these; VAIN. You have no vtubers that attempt to do madlad things like forge a sword with an avatar because it's specialized knowledge (though I'll admit there's probably some entertaining obscure specialized knowledge related vtuber with like 20k views). Instead there's people that play vidya, draw or equivalent. Most can fuck up at vidya and most of the people choosing to go full vtuber at least start drawing animu grils as per the nip hierarchy.

They don't, what factors is company's ability of major streamers which DIRECTLY MANAGE THEM. Minor streamers survive off of junk food and attention but similarly rate of improvement is low and there's a much lower audience. Certain streamers may even have things like patreon which would fall under the same accusation of wanting to be donated money.

You don't watch vtubers so you'd have no way of even knowing if this is true or not, you are just assuming that because they are vtubers they magically cannot become better at things that they repeatedly do.

Vtubers are entertaining. Many of them are good at drawing or singing. Some are professionals. Skilled gamers can be found too.

Vtubers didn't really transition to streaming until about two years later, and there are still popular vtubers who don't stream a lot. I've also heard that Tsukino Mito had superchats turned off for a long time.

projecting but whatever
>There are also many skilled singers among vtubers, not that you'd have any way of knowing that.
Yeah, many try to go into singan, drawan and things like these and attempt to git gud. And yet most of projects like these that are a result of that are presented separately from stream, which is advertised as a main attraction. You do not have them STRAIGHT FORWARD IMPROVE AT STREAMING using those skills as you have been claiming is their occupation. They're streamers that sing, not singers. They're streamers that draw, not artists. Most can get better at skills, yes, but not using them in a stream. And while there are idorus that are into singan or drawan, the presentation part isn't even covered. The only popular one that I can recall that does presentation right is Melody and that's not even a jaypee streamer, that's a literal chaturbate camgirl - and she prefers to shitpost rather than attempt to git better on that front.
>Again, most of her content is not meme reviews. I don't know how you are not comprehending this.
Yes, it's her streams about nothing and ARK, but she still does rip off pewdiepie and it's cancer, I don't know how you defend this.
>So are you now expanding your crusade against all entertainers, just because vtubers will also get caught in the net?
That's a really, really rad crusade, but mostly a simple comparison. There needs to be something that induces an impulse towards non-stop improvement of it all. Individual skills are fine, but most put on a show and don't practice how to do it better.
>Normalfags don't like vtubers.
Normalfags don't like them because normalfags are stupid. I don't like them because of reasons listed.
>Since you don't know anything about vtubers, you are forced to make assumptions based on things you've seen elsewhere, without having any idea if they are even applicable to vtubers. And they're not. Vtubers do not function like movies or video games.
Again, projecting, I've lurked enough to know what's what. You have "vtubers" - maybe even streamers in general - playing nice excessively to maintain a healthy state of comfy in the chat with clear iron-clad rules that people delet you for. This is celebrity worship, you cannot really talk to them or challenge them outside of their comfort zone, just like with nearly all streamers. If you can't really talk to people without constraints like that, if you can't tell them "your opinion on X is wrong, here is why" and potentially even change them, what's left is only shitposting. Even good entertainers know how to respond to a good challenge.
This is done on purpose because for the corporate ones, their very image is sold. For small ones, they'll mostly evade. Another part of not wanting to bother with it.
>What valid reasons have you supposedly given?
Their activities are driven by money and influence. Smaller ones are okay, but somewhat boring and typically bring almost nothing new to the table. There's outliers that do things like play mahjong, as if that's a specialized skill with nip obsession with it, but that's it. And then they fail to improve on presentation.
>But you are an anti.
This is your label. I'm someone with a strong opinion that chose to entertain your argument. No more and no less. I can call you a nigger right now and that would be a label, but it still wouldn't be true unless you were quite literally black.
>You are arguing that drawing is bad just because it gives you yet another excuse to attack vtubers with. You need a lot of excuses since you have no actual reasons.
I've listed plenty of reasons, but you've refused to acknowledge most and/or dismissed them. It seems you can't make the illiterate react to writing until you make them mad with careful scribbles.
>Vtubers are entertaining. Many of them are good at drawing or singing. Some are professionals. Skilled gamers can be found too.
Yet most are average and similar in their skills. Some are even similar in their characters.
>Who exactly has said that vtubers are not played by humans?
Most of you are prone to confusion on the matter.
>Where? How? What?
You refused to argue and went "you DON'T KNOW JACK". You have not responded to any of my core arguments about quality of the format and chose to deflect the entire time. That was the entire "conversation".
>It's not begging. You just want it to be.
If it was, it'd be worse. Read carefully - it's company policy to maximize donations. That makes it e-begging, but not directly, it's the company that begs through the vtuber. As for small ones and ones that don't have partnership, they're just irrelevant.
>Vtubers didn't really transition to streaming until about two years later, and there are still popular vtubers who don't stream a lot.
Well, yeah, I've mentioned Eilene's skit mafia already, though the bandwagon really took off with Kizuna Ai. For videos on youtube, it's more about monetization, so it may appear that it's not necessary to pander, but Eilene did a LOT of mobage promotions and Kizuna Ai went into let's plays really hard.
>I've also heard that Tsukino Mito had superchats turned off for a long time.
That's a headcase though, in a good way. I've already mentioned why I think the "medium" as a whole is trash, but I've also said that there are exceptions. 
>I'm not sure how this relates to what I said.
Work culture in Japan postulates that workers are japanese slaves and things must be done as employers ordered. If a major vtuber agency tells a vtuber to do X, they would do it.
But then again it's only for major ones.
>I didn't repeat a single opinion. Why is this such a common lie on imageboards? Regardless of how many different arguments I make, someone always claims that I'm only repeating a single thing. It's so transparently obviously a lie.
I can take the bait here and spam "Your lack of respect is meaningless", but here's the short version because I will not describe it every time
superchat oriented income = begging
you say things towards superchat oriented income != begging, which is an opinion
descriving vtubers as good is also an opinion
and things about normalfags is an opinion
>Something is not pandering just because you don't like it, and anyone making or trying to make a living through entertainment is to some extent biased towards earning money.
It is because entertainers receive money before an act that they're decent IN their act. Here there's no such standards, thus pandering becomes an optimal solution.
>I have presented numerous arguments. You are just a liar.
Making these kinds of blanket statements and then not explaining any of them. How delusional. Go back to your cult if you wish to.
>And why are you accusing me of baiting while still writing these walls of text?

>projecting but whatever
I have watched vtubers since the very beginning. I watch vtubers with anywhere from millions to less than a hundred subs.

>There are also many skilled singers among vtubers, not that you'd have any way of knowing that.

>Yeah, many try to go into singan, drawan and things like these and attempt to git gud. And yet most of projects like these that are a result of that are presented separately from stream, which is advertised as a main attraction.
Of course they are separate from a stream. It makes no sense to release a song as a stream. Vtubing is not married to streaming as its only possible format.

>You do not have them STRAIGHT FORWARD IMPROVE AT STREAMING using those skills as you have been claiming is their occupation.
Vtubers do karaoke and drawing streams all the time.

>They're streamers that sing, not singers. They're streamers that draw, not artists. Most can get better at skills, yes, but not using them in a stream. And while there are idorus that are into singan or drawan, the presentation part isn't even covered. The only popular one that I can recall that does presentation right is Melody and that's not even a jaypee streamer, that's a literal chaturbate camgirl - and she prefers to shitpost rather than attempt to git better on that front.
Some vtubers are primarily singers and/or put out single and album releases. Inuyama Tamaki was releasing music before she even become a vtuber and Nanahira has long been a famous doujin singer. Tamaki is also a published mangaka with an anime adaptation, Pochimaru is the illustrator for Okaa-san Online, and Shigure Ui is the character designer of Subaru (hololive). There are more examples like this.

>Yes, it's her streams about nothing and ARK, but she still does rip off pewdiepie and it's cancer, I don't know how you defend this.
Again, gaming and talk streamers are standard fare for vtubers. She is not doing anything out of the ordinary. I don't know how you can't comprehend this.

>So are you now expanding your crusade against all entertainers, just because vtubers will also get caught in the net?

>That's a really, really rad crusade, but mostly a simple comparison. There needs to be something that induces an impulse towards non-stop improvement of it all. Individual skills are fine, but most put on a show and don't practice how to do it better.
Where are you even getting all of this shit from? You barely know anything about vtubers. You're just throwing accusations at the wall hoping that some of them stick. There are hololive and nijisanji members who have literally talked about the practise they've been doing for live events.

>Since you don't know anything about vtubers, you are forced to make assumptions based on things you've seen elsewhere, without having any idea if they are even applicable to vtubers. And they're not. Vtubers do not function like movies or video games.

>Again, projecting, I've lurked enough to know what's what.
Again, I have been watching vtubers since the beginning and have watched a very wide range of them. You don't get to tell me that I'm projecting when you only have some passing knowledge of Coco and Melody.

>You have "vtubers" - maybe even streamers in general - playing nice excessively to maintain a healthy state of comfy in the chat with clear iron-clad rules that people delet you for. This is celebrity worship, you cannot really talk to them or challenge them outside of their comfort zone, just like with nearly all streamers. If you can't really talk to people without constraints like that, if you can't tell them "your opinion on X is wrong, here is why" and potentially even change them, what's left is only shitposting. Even good entertainers know how to respond to a good challenge.
Why would a streamer not want to maintain a good chat? For what reason would anyone go out of their way to produce a bad environment? You are grasping at straws like a lunatic. Streams are not debate contests where you go to "challenge" the streamer over something. This isn't Destiny. You are complaining that vtubers are bad because they don't adhere to some alien culture that you're arbitrarily expecting them to follow.

>Their activities are driven by money and influence. Smaller ones are okay, but somewhat boring and typically bring almost nothing new to the table. There's outliers that do things like play mahjong, as if that's a specialized skill with nip obsession with it, but that's it.
You make these banal observations and twist them into something supposedly malicious. Of course most vtubers are trying to make money and make themselves better known, just like most people on youtube and twitch. This is not malicious just because you want to pretend that it is. And stop pretending like you actually watch vtubers.

>And then they fail to improve on presentation.
Their 2D and 3D models are upgraded and they get new outfits, intros and BGM.

>This is your label. I'm someone with a strong opinion that chose to entertain your argument. No more and no less. I can call you a nigger right now and that would be a label, but it still wouldn't be true unless you were quite literally black.
It's not my label, it's the truth.

>I've listed plenty of reasons, but you've refused to acknowledge most and/or dismissed them. It seems you can't make the illiterate react to writing until you make them mad with careful scribbles.
You have no reasons. There is nothing wrong with drawing. You are just looking for any excuse you can to attack vtubers, no matter how absurd.

>Vtubers are entertaining. Many of them are good at drawing or singing. Some are professionals. Skilled gamers can be found too.

>Yet most are average and similar in their skills. Some are even similar in their characters.
There are over 13,000 vtubers ranging from hololive to literally whos with two viewers. Again, grasping at straws.

>Most of you are prone to confusion on the matter.
The only people I've ever seen who are confused on the matter are idiots on reddit.

>You refused to argue
>You have not responded to any of my core arguments
You are lying again. Why do you do this?

>If it was, it'd be worse. Read carefully - it's company policy to maximize donations. That makes it e-begging, but not directly, it's the company that begs through the vtuber. As for small ones and ones that don't have partnership, they're just irrelevant.
It's not begging.

>Well, yeah, I've mentioned Eilene's skit mafia already, though the bandwagon really took off with Kizuna Ai. For videos on youtube, it's more about monetization, so it may appear that it's not necessary to pander, but Eilene did a LOT of mobage promotions and Kizuna Ai went into let's plays really hard.
Something is not pandering just because you don't like it, and you're moving the goalposts.

>I'm not sure how this relates to what I said.

>Work culture in Japan postulates that workers are japanese slaves and things must be done as employers ordered. If a major vtuber agency tells a vtuber to do X, they would do it.
That's not how hololive or nijisanji work.

>I didn't repeat a single opinion. Why is this such a common lie on imageboards? Regardless of how many different arguments I make, someone always claims that I'm only repeating a single thing. It's so transparently obviously a lie.

>I can take the bait here and spam "Your lack of respect is meaningless", but here's the short version because I will not describe it every time
There was no bait. Why are you lying?

>superchat oriented income = begging
>you say things towards superchat oriented income != begging, which is an opinion
It's a fact. Superchats are not begging.

>descriving vtubers as good is also an opinion
>and things about normalfags is an opinion
What happened to me repeating just one opinion?

>Something is not pandering just because you don't like it, and anyone making or trying to make a living through entertainment is to some extent biased towards earning money.

>It is because entertainers receive money before an act that they're decent IN their act. Here there's no such standards, thus pandering becomes an optimal solution.
Something is not pandering just because you don't like it, and vtubers don't receive money until someone watches them and decides to give them money. Performers must build a reputation to get people to come see them.

>I have presented numerous arguments. You are just a liar.

>Making these kinds of blanket statements and then not explaining any of them. How delusional. Go back to your cult if you wish to.
Why are you lying, and where are you bringing up this imaginary cult from?

>Because it's fun.

/news/ - The Daily Today
>1. What will the focus of your board be?
Discusion and archival of news articles related current year happenings in the real (and occasionally virtual) world. The aim is to provide a place to discuss modern events outside of the meta threads of several of the webring's boards.
>2. What will the rules be?
Other than the site's own rules, the only two rules is no schizo posting (replying to people with cope-seethe-dilate spam) and a news source to start a new thread.
>3. How would you handle the following hypothetical scenarios:
>A. A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do?
Depends on the severity of rule breaking. Something as tame as targeted harassment should just receive a warning if it's prolonged (the users should have just hidden him if they can't handle the banter). Anything that infringes site's rules is either an immediate deletion or ban.
>    B. A spammer posts CP. What do you do?
Global report, create a hash rule to prevent the picture being reuploaded and immediate deletion and permaban. If they were using a VPN or a proxy server to bypass it, rangeban for a few days until they get bored and leave on their own. If it's on TOR I guess it depends on the administrative tools provided?
>C. A spammer has slid your catalog and all unpinned threads are gone. What do you do?
Generally, I impose a X threads an hour rule on the boards I own on other websites to counter this. It may be kind of petty to non spammers but it's either that or waking up to a broken catalog. In the event that happens, I would probably just change criteria for starting a new thread (helped me combat a bot on the original 8chan before Jim fucked everything up).
>4. What time range(s) would you normally be able to keep an eye on the board?
Non-burger hours (I plan on getting a mod specifically for that).
>5. If your board becomes active enough, do you agree to look for one or more vol(s) to help you?
I'd get two from the get go already.
>Do you know anyone already?
Not personally, but some other dude already offered to lend a hand. I'll just rotate them if the response to one's moderation is too negative.

>1. What will the focus of your board be?
Like the title says, historical discussions and shitposting, from ancient times on. 
>2. What will the rules be?
Aside from global rules, no drama posting (i.e., "hi John", "hi Eden" posting),  no schizo posting, and no spamming.
>3. How would you handle the following hypothetical scenarios:
    >A. A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do?
    If the rule break is minor, I'll let him off with a warning. If the issue is major, he gets banned. 
    >B. A spammer posts CP. What do you do?
   Immediate ban and deletion of the material. If he uses proxies or VPNs, rangeban those. 
    >C. A spammer has slid your catalog and all unpinned threads are gone. What do you do?
    Ideally, this would be prevented by limiting or locking thread creation until the spammer leaves. Otherwise, make the best of it and see if we can get threads restored.

Regular burger hours.

5. No self-advertising. No Discord shilling.
6. No degeneracy*
7. No spam, flooding, serial double- / triple posting
8. No fedposting**

* Note on 'No degeneracy' 
 For purposes of this board, this means no unspoilered gore, no pornography, no advocating for race-mixing, transgender ideology, homosexuality, bisexuality, sexualizing prepubescents, etc.

** Note on 'fedposting' 
Fedposting will be defined as posts that actively attempt to rouse users into carrying out terrorist attacks or acts of violence. Speaking positively about Breivik, Tarrant or similar individuals does not count as fedposting, think more of ""Hey kid, you wanna bomb a federal building?" type posts

The same as /fascist/ used to have, though I may look through and change the rules if I see a problem or if I think there need s to be a new rule.
>3. How would you handle the following hypothetical scenarios:
>    A. A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do?

Austro-libertarian discussion on politics and economics.
>What will the rules be?
Global rules apply. Keep discussion on-topic, purely economics and politics. Posts should be high-quality, shit is deleted. No namefagging.
>How would you handle the following hypothetical scenarios: 
>A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do? 
Delete it, move on.
>A spammer posts CP. What do you do?
Delete, permaban, and report to FBI.
>A spammer has slid your catalog and all unpinned threads are gone. What do you do?
Delete posts, permaban spammer. Attempt to recreate lost threads. Ask site admin for assistance in preventing this from happening again and for backups of lost threads.
>What time range(s) would you normally be able to keep an eye on the board?
Mornings and evenings on weekdays, all-day weekends. I need to sleep at night.
>If your board becomes active enough, do you agree to look for one or more vol(s) to help you? Do you know anyone already?
Of course I want volunteers to assist in moderating the board. I don't know anybody IRL who could help, so I'd have to set up a thread advertising new janny positions.
>Why do you want to be a moderator for this board?
This board used to exist on the webring before the site that hosted this board went down. This board used to be really nice on 8chan before 8chan kinda died.

Just sent you an email so you can contact me.
Who is the current owner of /k/? Is it only be kept as a bunker for now? cafe/k/ has become unusable from all the schizoposting and I'd like to use the one here, but from what I can tell it seems to only be in use as a bunker.

> I will never be hosting anything akin to /abdl/

Is this still the case? The new /abdl/ BO that the blacked.gov admins gave the board too has essentially made it entirely 3dpd porn related with most of the things that made Julay /abdl/ fun non-existent. At this point I'm trying to find any IBs in the webring willing to accept an /abdl/ board.
In light of anon.cafe's shutdown, I will be making a formal request here to get things moving ASAP to cause as little user loss as possible.
I am making a formal request to have /christian/ created here on zzzchan.

>What will the focus of your board be?
Christianity, Christ, the Church, and theology.
>What will the rules be?
<1. Follow the global rules; do not post illegal content.
<2. Do not post pornography, lewd, or semi-lewd imagery of any form. If it's intention is to arouse, it will be deleted.
<3. Do not spam threads or posts.
<4. Do not advertise other imageboards.
<5. Do not post anything that attacks/insults Christianity. Good-faith debate and discussion is allowed; make sure your posts are high quality, well-written, and well-researched.
<6. Put effort into your posts. Low-quality threads and posts (including bait, off-topic, flaming, or nonsense/schizoposting) will be deleted.
<7. One-liner questions that don't need their own thread go in QTDDTOT. If your thread was deleted, there is a good chance it was moved here instead.
>How would you handle the following hypothetical scenarios:
>A. A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do?
Delete the single offending post.
>B. A spammer posts CP. What do you do?
Delete and permaban.
>C. A spammer has slid your catalog and all unpinned threads are gone. What do you do?
Ask the site owner to restore from a previous back, if available. I would also have set thread creation limits beforehand to prevent this scenario.
>What time range(s) would you normally be able to keep an eye on the board?
Sporadically throughout the day, weekends and weekdays. Afternoons and evenings especially.
>If your board becomes active enough, do you agree to look for one or more vol(s) to help you? Do you know anyone already?
Yes, I will seek out vols if the board becomes active enough. I currently do not have anyone in mind.
>Why do you want to be a moderator for this board?
I have owned cafe/christian/ for over a year at this point, and given the site's impending shutdown I would not like to lose any more users given the small (but faithful) amount we already have.

I would personally like to advocate that you not give christjanny a board on your platform. He is the most insufferable namefag reddit faggot on the face of the webring (Hanging_Flesh aside) and the only thing he deserves is enough rope to hang himself. 

If you are in any way actually serious about giving Christjanny a board on your platform I want to put in a counter-application for the sole purpose of not letting him moderate any more /christian/ boards on the webring. This is the same NIGGER who banned Christ-tan for being idolatry.

I would also say not to give him the /christian/ board. But for the opposite reason: because he is not nearly advanced enough in discipleship to handle a christian board. Though, no one I see is, since real born again christians full of the Holy Ghost... don't use 4chan porn website garbage. Instead fake christians like you use these places, who think it's okay to call people the N word and F slur and curse and whine about christ-tan. Either way, there's never been a real christian 4chan thing, and there never will be. Just /pol/christian and whatever else garbage like on anon.cafe. A few true people who love Jesus will come and eventually go, but they go forever. The person who owns zzzchan is not a christian, if he makes a christian board it will be just another cultural christian dumb thing given to some dumb guy.

As long as he has the willingness to maintain the board, I don't see why he needs to be an effective discipler?  It's like saying the owner of a rec center needs to be a credentialed teacher in order to allow students to gather to discuss what they are reading.  It would be good if christanon would be willing to be discipled though, to be sure.

On the other hand, if christians don't use 4chan porn garbage, then why are you here?  If you are not a christian, then why are you chiding a board you would never see?  The folks on /christian could make it a place to work out salvation with each other apart from the 'porn' garbage.

I really don't want Christianjanny to have anything resembling moderation powers since it is his fault 2/3rds of the board left. The remaining users are not a cult of personality but rather have the boot of tyranny on their neck and no alternatives within the webring and the cafe board owner treated it as first-come first-serve when he sneakily stole the board out from under everyone resulting in a massive shitstorm at the time. I will apply for a /christian/ board since zzz is now looking like the realistic option where the community will migrate. He's not "exiled" or "banned from the board" or anything else if I'm in charge but I'm not giving him mod powers.

>1. What will the focus of your board be?
The good word of Christ. If it's Christian it's /christian/.

>2. What will the rules be?
The rules will be as such...
1) Christ is King. His is risen.
<John 18:37 - Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
2) Global Rules Apply
<Mark 12:17 - And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.
4) You are free to test that assumption at your convenience. 
Translation: Fuck Around & Find Out
<Galatians 6:7 - Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for 'whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.'
Clarifications:
4a) Art is beauty. Rather, since we are all born in the image and likeness of the Creator, we are all artists creative in our depths. It is not holding virtue that makes it bad. Maintain virtue with your art.
Translation: No more art restrictions based on American Protestant morals as per the Christianjanny days, but Imagery posted with intent to shock, mock Christ, or blatantly encourage sin (most pornography, most gore, most Atheist memes, etc.) will be purged.
<"The habits of building and weaving and making music are in the soul and from the soul. But it is more accurate to say that the builder builds, and not that his art builds, though he builds through his art." - Thomas Aquinas
4b) Do not mock the Lord. Nonbelievers may use the board respectfully. Satanists, Buddhists with a chip on their shoulder, Anti-Christian Atheists, etc. who openly mock The Lord shall be redirected to the [designated shitting street] thread and exiled on further provocations.
Translation: Be respectful.
Thread located here: tbd
<1 Corinthians 1:10 - Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
5) We are all sinners. It is because Christ forgives that we may return to the right path. Judge not the sinner nor the warnings of his past if he repents.
<John 8:11-12 - She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: 'go, and sin no more.'
<Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
6)Play and celebration are important as Christians, but off-topic discussion goes to the off-topic thread
Thread located here: tbd
<Luke 15:11-32 - Parable of The Lost Son
7) Meta goes in the meta thread.
Meta thread located here: tbd
<James 4:1-2 - From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?
<Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.

>3. How would you handle the following hypothetical scenarios:
<    A. A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do?
As /christian/s we are part of a covenant. Ask him to explain his actions and assume the best. If a friendly chat off to the side in an off-topic or meta thread isn't enough or the user refuses to break bread with the moderation, then he'll get smacked like anybody else at that point. 3 Days for 3DPD behavior.
All infractions get a warning if they broke the rules "on accident." If it's on purpose or the behavior continues, then they get the ban & delete treatment: 3 days to cool off, then 1 week to learn the lesson, then 1 month of exile to the desert, 3 months of exile, and finally 1 year of exile for continued infractions. Per rule 5 we'll always assume the best intentions and approve a heartfelt appeal unless the rule infraction in question was clearly intentional such as spam.
<    B. A spammer posts CP. What do you do?
Assuming Sleepychan doesn't have special rules about this, ban and delete like any other spam. Spam gets deleted and spammers get banned. Simple-is, simple-as.
<    C. A spammer has slid your catalog and all unpinned threads are gone. What do you do?
Ask if there's a way to restore from a backup. Otherwise clean up the spam and shrug. Threads can be recreated. Imageboards aren't permanent. Assuming JSchan has similar BO settings to Lynxchan there will be anti-spam features I can enable such as hourly thread creation anyways which should realistically prevent that.

>4. What time range(s) would you normally be able to keep an eye on the board?
Right now I'm up during North American afternoons/evenings into the late night. My availability's likely to change and I'll just find moderation to help if it's a problem.
>5. If your board becomes active enough, do you agree to look for one or more vol(s) to help you? Do you know anyone already?
I've got two guys in mind from among personal relations who've wanted a /christian/ board for a while without even having to rely on the users, but if a user seems particularly passionate about it and the board is active enough to need moderation, then I'll let them give it a shot first.
6. Why do you want to be a moderator for this board?
As always with these kinds of questions, I don't. I see this as a responsibility/duty to the anons of /christian/ rather than a personal desire to bear the burden of moderating. Moderation is a burden because you will always know what you shouldn't know, always have to stand at the forefront when the embankments are raided, and always have to watch your tongue lest your pride be your own downfall by alienating the users. That being said I don't view having to moderate in a bad light. By keeping the place clean and organized I give anon the ability to enjoy his stay and make merry without worrying about the Satanist cults circling around him. 
Otherwise as above at the top, I would rather breathe the life back into /christian/ that christianjanny vampirically drained away when he banned fun and creativity and without the anon.cafe site owner protecting him I think the users would agree.

You can't maintain a christian board without being a proper christian that can do that exactly. Not anyone can be a leader of a church either. People, like the person who made christchan, allowed horrible things to be posted, then people go there and think "oh the truth of the entire universe is just like everything else, 4chan meme garbage."
Christians do not use these websites. That's just how it is. "Oooh but you know, we could do it, come on, pull up your sleeves let's do it..." I don't know chief. I think you can post about Jesus to people online if you have time. But the idea of a christian online space on a 4chan board. No, I personally, no. I have a christian board on 8chan but it just has information. And really that's all that one can do. Yeah, I just don't see it, so.

A born again christian is someone who has the holy Spirit. It's not necessarily about something "they do instead" in this case, at least for what I was talking about, though good example of resisting temptation which is something that is natural for those walking in the Spirit. Nor have I ever said anything about the current person running any christian board not being born again. Born again Christians full of the Holy Ghost don't use these websites, everyone knows that. Very weak disciples have come out of the 4chan background. Being saved in Sodom and staying in Sodom is a bit dangerous.
And you don't have to be Paul or Timothy to be a leader, no, but you have to be on some kind of level. There have been board makers and owners of christian spaces who haven't even read the whole Bible for a start, and it becomes then no surprise that they take polls about simple matters, rather than just going by the scripture. Their websites/boards are represented by dumb things and I still haven't seen a single christian space that even says anything... you can go to any of these places and come out knowing absolutely nothing from the main platform. There's no link to any information at all, I know nothing more about the Bible, what to start to read, I don't even know the Gospel, or how to go to heaven, I don't know anything from these places, but they'll have christ-chan image thread stickied instead. And I pointed that out to the anon.cafe place a long time ago and it was slightly improved. It's still a way from being even acceptable. But still the anon.cafe place is way better than it used to look like, filled with slurs and vanity.
I meet people who don't even know the Bible is in modern english and that they can read or listen to it online, often times they think they need to read "from beginning to end". Most people think that they're pretty decent people and such people go to heaven and they think that's what christianity is too, and Jesus is probably just a nice teacher. And they can go to a christian imageboard and come out and still think that, because they get no information.

Of course I mostly always think in terms of unsaved people, that's my own focus. Which, the thing is, even a christian space where christians just talked with each other, the problem is, again, 5 people use these dump sites. I'm old and I have accepted reality: there is no "fun social fun time" online. It's useful for information, if you want fun, do something else. All of these 4chan websites refuse to even have a sfw open board without grossness and hatred. I prefer not to talk about any of this though, because genuinely I do not care. I have no hope in a christian futaba imageboard, even a cultural christian board, or anything good to come out of 4chan. I only come here to laugh at you. So, it's nice people might be trying, but I said in my post, yeah, it'll be dumb either way. But go ahead with it, make the 10th christian board and have fun with that. As someone has said on anon.cafe: real christians tend to slowly drift away from social internet, in other words they just give up. There's nothing here of value, God's presence and peace is not there and as children of God we do not like that. And most people thankfully have real life things to do instead that the Lord trusts them with. Again, no issue with anyone on a personal level, but if you choose responsibility; then you're an object.
I have nothing to add because everything I said remains as I said it the first time: either way it'll be dumb, I don't expect this website to last much longer either. Anon.cafe is the casual way. Because when your goal is vanity, then it's easy to stop caring. But in Christchan when I confronted the owner and he deleted his site I could have just offered more nicely to tell him the issues and give some stuff. As it is, zzzchan is a demonic place of course, this world will be over soon and I care about people interested in truth, I in a positive way only, and do not wish to waste time. If the owner of zzzchan wishes to be on God's side, then good, but as it stands he is working for the enemy as we do so often maybe not realising it. But porn is such a satanic thing destroying so many souls that you have to at least not maintain a support system where I go to your website and see nudity promoted. I want everyone to have fun and celebrate Christ. It becomes hypocryicy and hands raised with blood like in the case again on anon.cafe the christmas board where the owner claimed to be a christian and yet allowed sinful horrible things on the board supposedly about christ's birth while saying "well the christian specific thread is clean." God isn't fooled by keeping one thread clean. It's quite serious when you go from a small weak disciple to now wanting to have charge. That's dangerous. No matter the evil promoted, God wins the war.
Fill up all their posts with the praises of their God, and place a two-edge sword in all their hands; to execute His vengeance on the wicked heathen imageboards, His punishments on every people fall; to bind their owners in heavy chains and janitors in fetters; to execute on them the judgment toll: O this is the honour due to all the LORD's own saints.

The question was posed rhetorically.

I don't have dissatisfaction with imageboards, as I said. I'm wholly satisfied. I'm talking about something very serious rather, the Lord Jesus, God's word and eternal life, because I could not care less about what I think or feel let alone imageboards. I don't judge myself. When you submit yourself to the Lord Jesus you really stop caring about what others and yourself have concocted in fleshy mind. But so long as you have not the Lord; you obsess over others and the vain reasoning of mankind and dismiss what actually matters to address people personally, which does nothing.
That is only part of the freedom of justification.

I think it's fine to have such boards, it really is up to the individual to interpret and dicern right from wrong. For practical purposes I think less travelled sites or forums would be useful for in the case of more shut downs or any Marshal law prohibiting religious practice in the open, as has been evident in leaf land. But like you said, having a place for just information is fine, real preaching should be from a qualified man of God. I just think it can't hurt to have more places online to have non-preachy intelligence discourse. As much as the devil may try, the word of God prevails.

Everyman doing what is right in his own eyes, real Judges stuff, "And the man Micah had an house of gods, and made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest. In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes." But we follow God's law as it is plainly known. The endchan christian board was redeemed, as it was left to be a disgusting thing. But none of these boards I see as social places, lest they turn into what they always turn into and rightly die in sickness. A good board is nearly good enough but in all history no one has allowed an open good board and such would become corrupt by the poor maintence that follows all these, that being a lack of wisdom.
If someone has a routine and is working for Jesus then they're not going to have much time to care about these places, which is why even if there are any full of the Holy Ghost they are busy with things important. Young wobbling christians who are raised awfully in awful things are very sad and need to pray heavily and also use religion to discipline as training wheels to become better prepared to walk perfectly.
It is horrible when the church resorts to using Zoom, much worse 4chan boards. Anon.cafe will die, I won't celebrate the enemy's death, but at least we will have one less website to waste people's time. Again, if a saint is doing well he'll be occupied. Nasty netizens coming to know and know Christ: I think should discipline and schedule ourselves. As for these ideas of a christian board, I've yet to know a purpose for them, they are made best at question and answers; but answers coming from sick christians when there is much better connections now. I have a heart for my tribe, which is why the bondage people are in because they are not being fed is troublesome in my soul. And I would that the leaders who are no leaders would be cut off. All would be better suited if they had been useful from the beginning rather than offer a free-for-all of horribleness, because we obsess over ourselves and what we say and ask, not focusing on Christ. On application. On Jesus of Nazareth at all costs. Tidbits are fine as well as links and files and resources. To equip and encourage and strengthen people in worship and spirit is a goal. To chitchat and whatever else we oft see is no goal and no fellowship in Christ.

There is a small cause, so I will continue myself mildly. But in practical terms of this dark site, (let the wicked who try to make us lust fall into their own snares,) Jesus board or not; as long as disciples are staying away from social internet, which is hard sometimes but we are refined as silver and will do better each time we slip, and as long as we are occupying ourselves rightly, even forcing ourselves if we need to which we need to as the sad worked state of man is now mountain dew and doritos. But God will deliver out of sinfulness and backsliding, to believe otherwise is to be apostate and deny salvation. People are free to share what is useful and edifying in the good places already. 10 people use these websites, there is not much to say.
The Nobody used to post on anon cafe's star wars board. Didn't he.
With the recent upsurge of pedochan spammers, I'd be interested in becoming a janny on /b/. I spend a lot of time on the board and I always report all of the pedo spam, so I think that it would be better if I could just instantly delete it myself.
By pedochan spammers I mean what I perceive as users from a specific imageboard full of pedos, who post things like baby sex doll pictures, pedo advocacy, advertising their imageboard, subversive gaslighting to conflate 2D lolicon with real pedophilia, etc. They have specific posting styles, such as using emojis, avatarfagging as kemonomimi 3DCG models, etc.
I'll also delete normal CP too, of course, and other kinds of spam.
My time zone is UTC 0 and I'm mostly active on evenings and weekends. E-mail me if you're interested.
