>thread explodes in activity over IDs to muddy the water >dies again kek Let's look at the data, that last 2 sdg threads on April 14th, 2025. https://desuarchive.org/trash/thread/74564107/#74564107 https://desuarchive.org/trash/thread/74553563/#74553563 352+211=563 posts in a day /trash/sdg/ is currently sitting at 836 after 2 days, with the majority of spam happening today. This is after losing at least half the users. b, pol, v, are not half as active as they were on 4chan. https://8chan.moe/trash/res/34.html#q5487 It's obvious you're raiding, especially because you shit your pants when I bring up an /ais/sdg splinter thread due to having IDs.

>>6962 >no boobies filtered

also crosspost properly, you newfag >>>/trash/5487

Reminder the people spamming philosophical debates are the same ones spamming loli, blacked, and real CP. If you're paid to spam 4chan, and 4chan goes down, then your new duty is spamming altchans. Notice everyone raiding with philosophical debate hasn't posted any OC. Same people who took my workflow on 4ch to spam blacked here.

>workflow Holy shit it's all coming together. >>6930 >Allows botmakies to keep their logs and conversations separate from their identities Honestly, it should be fine as long as IDs aren't kept between threads. I've noticed the ID I have here and on /aicg/ aren't the same, you could tell which botmakers were and weren't on a thread at the time through the anchor anyways. What would be exceptional would be an option to hide the ID. Do it while submitting a bot? Understandable. Do it while making an offhand comment? People are aware of the odds of you just being a threadshitter, and wouldn't be much different from seeing a bunch of new IDs prop up at once.

>>6930 >>6974 Both these posts are completely meaningless. IDs hurt samefags and spammers. You want to make filtering harder. 4chan had no ID boards so they are easier to spam. Same as them having a 4mb file limit + no sound. They don't want discussion. They want spam. You guys are debating nothing so you can spam.

I'm starting suspect ce6b66 is attempting to prove the opposite of his point; that IDs don't stop people from being obnoxious faggots and derailing threads. Got me hook line and sinker. Janny-sama, now's the time. Do you have the conviction? The conviction to ban?

>>6982 If you click on the (/) you can hide all posts from an ID. If everyone in a thread does this for troublemakers instead of responding to them, it becomes much better in the interim.

>>6929 >600 posts Thanks. Some threads in the catalog are also locked. Is that automatic? I'm just trying to figure out when a new general thread would be made, since it seems like they wouldn't be frequently created. Even checking the fast boards like /vyt/ it seems threads are made way less often given their post count. >Keep all the board drama here, no avatarfagging/namefagging and some light quality control (no threads that are just one line, for instance) That seems fair. Only question about that is how much counts as namefagging? Constantly using the "Name" field is an obvious case, but many anons from /aicg/ share their stuff with others and have profile names they're known by. That's always been standard for /aicg/ as a symptom of sharing bots. So if someone posts a link to something they've made, and it has their profile name in the link, how far would that count?

>>6988 You also end up with people "avatarfagging" by having specific bots they use often, or specific themes they use, or even just the same user persona and not cycling it out for every screenshot. Same as having a specific artist mix or prompt one uses often because they enjoy that type of image. It's sort of an issue of the nature of sharing content, you're going to be identifiable if you want to do anything beyond briefly summarize what you're looking at... which is boring.

>>6992 Yeah, stuff like that is what I'm thinking of. Some people interpret it more strictly and I'm wondering what the case is when there are profile names involved, especially since it's compounded with IDs like >>6930 mentioned.

>>6982 This >>6984 I'm going to moderate this board, but 9/10 I'm expecting anons to just don't feed the troll. Report, hide and move on. >>6988 >>6992 I you are sharing something to the board I think it's fine, but if you are using an identifier just for the sake of it then I could be a little more strict. I'll try to be as flexible as possible with the ruling.

>>6992 You do have a point regarding botmaking, though I would argue that those are just people wanting to contribute to the hobby and end up being known for that, different from avatarfags who are attentionwhores and do nothing but make anything better and just want to be annoying and feed their ego Case in point: the koishifag in /vg/'s aicg general would constantly post with koishi from Touhou, and even try forcing threads with her in the OP.

>>7005 Koishifag was a different guy from the guy who'd try forcing her in the OP, he tried it with other random common bots too to be annoying and discourage people from posting about them, just that only one really stuck as the actual troll's avatar.

>>7006 I see. Thanks for correcting me. Sometimes it's hard keeping track of all the "special people" of aicg.

>>6997 TY janny-sama. Avatarfagging is different from IDs. Spam will be easier for users to detect instead of debate. More reports, less arguing. >>7005 >botmaking Why would you allow bots?

>>7022 Ah, that's just a term used in aicg meaning chatbots. You know, for roleplaying with text-based AI, which is the whole point of aicg. Botmaking is creating specific cards containing metadata and a pic, of an OC character or already existing one, that you wrote, for roleplaying.

/aicg/-Anon here. I personally hate IDs. Yes, there was a lot of SPAM in the 4chan threads, but I think this could be effectively mitigated with some moderation, and it was quite obvious who did what anyway in many cases. I'd call myself a good poster, I put a lot of love into the general in over two years, but I really dislike having 'a face' and having different strings of interaction tied to each other. That's why I post on image boards and not on reddit or discord; on chans, typically, I am not forced to be someone and maintain an image, even if it's just thread karma in this case.

>>7050 BO here. I neglected to use IDs because this was mainly an archival board not too long ago. Generally most boards keep IDs on to prevent IP-hopping faggots from manufacturing ideas, since at the very least we can point out suspicious (1) and done posts. I agree that ID can put a damper on the whole anonymous faces part of posting on imageboards, but seeing as they only stick with you for a single thread I think it's a good compromise for moderators and posters. There's also the issues of the site not having a proper "follow" option to see what you or another poster has said unless IDs are enabled.

>>6934 /g/aicg did become the place for serious discussion while /vg/aicg was the shitposting garbage dump before the site went down. >>6894 I hope avatarfags like >>6523 >>6360 and their fanclubs are dealt swiftly and are not allowed to fester.

Just a heads up to BO, the 4chan AI thread schizo has already arrived. Currently he's: b826df a31e2c 5e4243 Sometimes rotates IPs to dodge IDs, sometimes he's lazy. You can pretty quickly ID him from the long, rambly blogposts arguing in bad faith about thread culture (which no longer matters because 4ch is fucking dead lmao). He also loves to latch on to specific posters with an external identity and try to defame them until he gets bored and moves to the next one.

Wasn't gonna acknowledge him coming back because he does it for attention, but might be worth disabling TOR posting if possible to keep said poster mildly at bay when he's having a meltie.

>avatarfags and their fanclubs This touched a nerve, didn't it? Avatarfags don't belong in an anonymous imageboard.

>>7172 People would likely take you way more seriously if you did anything but sperg out over who's who and weren't just here to derail.

>>7175 I don't know in what way your crying is supposed to convince anyone that avatarfagging should be allowed. It doesn't belong in 4chan and neither here.

>>7176 you're bald

>dude just wanted to archive /v/ threads and now you're going to make him mod /aicg/, get into ethical arguments and learn to recognize each individual thread schizo on sight Evil.

>>7055 TY BO. The small compromise in per-thread anonymity is completely worth making it harder for the spammers (that obviously just showed up.) Plus people can still change their IP if they really really care for some reason. >>7170 What the fuck are you talking about. You guys raided the meta thread because you don't want IDs. I mentioned a splinter thread on /trash/, asked BO if IDs are enabled, and now you guys are dogpiling the thread with irrelevant discussion and lies. I hope the BO can see how obvious your sharty raid is. Thread went from 10 posts to 60 in a day and it's all useless debate and lying about me.

>>7208 That's literally you raider faggot starting shit. I mentioned this board once and YOU RAIDERS are the one stirring up shit. I can't wait until feds throw you sharty niggers in jail RICO style for hacking 4chan.

>>7217 >You guys raided the meta thread because you don't want IDs. Sorry, what? I wanted IDs. I'm glad we have them. I also have nothing to do with other altchans.

>>6955 I don't know why you're doing this but you're lying and a faggot /sdg/ was going really fast nearly 3 threads a day https://desuarchive.org/trash/search/subject/%2Fsdg%2F%20-%20Stable%20Diffusion%20General/ >04/13 3 threads >04/12 3 threads >04/11 2 threads >04/09 4 threads /sdg/ is very active and so are the anons, and many of the anons who post there are either indifferent or like cunny they just never posted it because they would get jannie'd Do not listen to this anon, he doesn't represent /sdg/ and has been an active shitposter in it for months, he simply hates us and I don't know why

>>6997 As long as you're watching and willing to swing the hammer when a schizo gets a bunch of reports dumped on him, we can't ask for more.

>>7267 What did I lie about? Can you explain why 8/trash/sdg moves as fast 4/trash/sdg? Why isn't 8/pol/ or 8/v/ moving as fast as 4chan? You're raiding! >>7268 >1pbid shartytranny raider begging mods to let them abuse reports when someone calls them out as raiding Sorry for shitting up your /meta/ thread BO. I offhandedly mentioned possibly making a /sdg/ on /ais/ and they came here to spam useless debate about IDs, beg you to let them abuse reports, and blame me for their spam. (((reaching maximum judaism levels)))

How do you hide 1pbtid posts? Asking for a friend...

>>6894 So the textgen schizo is already sharting all over the place (sorry we never managed to housebreak him). If you guys don't want to make it easy and kick us out I'm willing to throw myself to the meat grinder and volunteer. Let me know who to contact or whatever.
