>>640607 Could we get a better thread watcher at some point? Preferably one that will stay up by default rather than having to be brought up manually. Also one that tracks (You)'s. There is also no way for me to mark a reply as being mine, so if I post something on my laptop and go back to my desktop, there's no way to mark it as being mine for the purpose of monitoring. Just something to think about when there is time to improve the software.

>>1157894 At this post, I don't think they know what to do about him.

>>1158010 They are probably working on it.

>>1158010 "A schizo can destroy any thread he wants with a spambot" isn't a good precedent to set though, I hope they find a way.

>>1158004 Here's some scripts. https://rentry.org/8chanMinusMinus They don't have all those features, but it's something to keep an eye on.

>>1158082 I assume they can't even rangeban him because he uses a VPN. >>1158072 I want to hope. But holy fuck would I rather someone just track this worthless waste of space down and strangles him.

>>1157833 That's the price you pay for 5 files a post, sound webms, a 32MB per file limit, a 50MB total file limit, alternative board creation if you don't like a board, no 4cuck jannies, and more.

>>1156198 >>1157734

>>1158133 >I assume they can't even rangeban him because he uses a VPN. It's almost as if this is the only actual way to stop schizos. At this point either VPNs go or /xivg/ has to make it's own Discord server and exclude the troons, ebins and schizos from it cause any image board that doesn't ban VPNs will just have this shit going on cause of 2-3 frothing at the mouth retards malding cause nobody wants to give them attention.

>>1158238 VPN's are never being banned.

>>1154989 On the contrary, he would spam the pic whenever a schizo incited threadwars between /v/ and /vg/ to prove his point, schizos would get off unscathed by mods while he'd get multiple bans in the same thread. It helped prove his raison d'etre.

>>1158238 it's all so tiresome

>>1158238 Dont think they'll ever give up VPNs, they would rather have the site be TOR exclusive

>>1158082 He can though. I forget what general it was on 4chan but they got one schizo riled up enough that he perma spammed it and made it unusable, no amount of banning or trying to change the OP would work, they had to give up on the general entirely. Then they tried to revive it months later hoping the schizo would have moved on but it was spammed to death again. So yeah, the unfortunate truth is that all the annoying shit with 4chan like blocking VPNs and the 15 min first post timer and captchas and shit are a necessity when you're dealing with weapons-grade autism.

>>1158304 >4cuck mods are dogshit retarded and don't care And? We're not there

>>1158256 Imagine bare-backing an image board when shit like this exists: >>1146107 >>1146115 IDs must also stay. Not only because they upset samefags, but are useful for finding posts.

i suppose banning vpns on a few chosen boards only isn't possible? t. techlet

>>1158304 I think that was the Guild Wars 2 general, which i think began from somebody getting kicked from a guild

>>1158204 A solid tradeoff if you ask me. 4chan was too restrictive for its own good and having jannies regulate your every move and a ban on lolis outside of /b/ nah we'll do just fine on here. I still ask why would anyone wanna go back to 4chan when you can post here freely without having to subscribe to a "4chan Pass" of any sort?

>>1157238 After the recent happenings I'm convinced this is one of many jew sponsored "research" tests they have done over the years. >>1158304 > So yeah, the unfortunate truth is that all the annoying shit with 4chan like blocking VPNs and the 15 min first post timer and captchas and shit are a necessity when you're dealing with weapons-grade autism. It didn't even work btw. It was /feh/ I was there watching it die. Everyone moved to /v/, and the schizo followed along, when he couldn't spam anymore he simply samefagged his way into spamming asinine arguments until everyone left entirely.

>>1158304 >>1158365 The site already has a PoW bypass system to mitigate spam. It just needs to be tweaked so it doesn't apply globally. You faggots are over complicating the fuck out of the problem. There is zero reason to ever ban VPN's.

>>1158365 Turning off VPNs for a whole board because of one schizo is also an admission of defeat and a bad message though, it's tricky

>>1158238 /xivg/ already has a discord server with a few thousand members and you all still bogeyman-blame anything you don't like on someone else just like the spambotters are doing with /xiv/. I almost hope they just kick you all off the site since you can't behave and try to pull spam raids just to oust random boards like they're abandoned. And nobody will never ever give up VPNs just for one problem-filled general.

>>1158395 I said one without the ebins or schizos in it.

>>1157564 fuck it, now for real. asking for sauce.

>>1158304 Yeah, this was GW2. Spammed it with furry or scat porn nonstop for 2 solid years I heard.

>>1142823 >>1142906 >>1143583 This was fucking hilarious but I feel bad for laughing. I must be getting old man, the tumor of empathy is growing and I just can't help but feel pity for these kinds of people.

>>1158415 There's a hundred splinter discords for every general, that already exists too.

>>1158395 >get threads flooded by autistic spaz >"YOU ALL CAN'T BEHAVE I HOPE YOU GET THE BOOT" jej.

>>1158420 Don't know the artist. You'll have to saucenao it.

>>1158500 >one autistic spaz and the 10 people with 30+ posts replying to it nonstop while trying to pull cringe sharty-tier raids

>>1158545 >yes but my [headcanon] ok dude

>>1158545 What the fuck are you talking about

>>1158545 Ignoring it and not replying to it doesn't do anything retard. You clearly do not understand how bad these freaks are.

>>1158545 Smells like astrofurfing.

>>1158596 >>1158609 >>1158622 >>1158623 Yep called it.

>>1158637 are you ok?

>>1158637 Tell us how we know you've had zero experience with the real deal of schizos without directly saying it.

>>1158545 We have IDs here, newfag. Stop posting anytime.

>>1158637 By your postcount here and your weird narrative-shifting I'd honestly believe you're just the spammer himself tbh

All you're doing is proving that you people are just as schizophrenic as I'm saying. I'm out have fun, I don't know why I try with xivgers.

>>1158502 turns it out it worked. figure that being western-looking was enough for it to not do the trick.

>>1158684 I'm getting the mild impression as well.

>>1158500 It is pretty funny that the brand new poster to this thread seems incapable of acknowledging that "/xivg/" is being bombarded by the unrelenting spam of a single schizo, while attacking the entire community (who are also victims) and telling everyone to go to discord. It's almost like he's the spammer.

>>1158722 It's more likely because this isn't a 'set and forget' spam either, the spammer is actively sitting down and monitoring the situation. People started using images to talk to eachother since the spambot was only using text and the fag quickly changed his spambot to copy images too. He's actively watching all this.

>>1156699 Was anyone else pre-/pol/ meguca? Good times. Love me dice rolls.

>>1158679 cant believe I fell for a .gif for the first time in a decade

>>1158776 >the spammer is actively sitting down and monitoring the situation. Yeah, seems likely consider- >People started using images to talk to eachother since the spambot was only using text and the fag quickly changed his spambot to copy images too. That. This is active spambotting, adjusting to the situation as it unfolds. All I can hope is that whoever's behind that screen is weeping bitchtears of rage.

>>1158545 Trolling outside of /b/

>>1158304 it was Guild Wars 2 from what i remember it was >obnoxious gay furry manages to get kicked from the 4chan guild >terminal butthurt mode: engaged >makes/obtains a bot that pulls random posts from the site that targets any thread that mentions GW2, killing both /gw2g/ AND the /mmog/ when they tried to move there >this went on for maybe 2-3 years before someone braved making a GW2 thread and it didnt get spammed >>1158776 christ imagine being that much of a loser its wild how much mental illness XIV seems to foster and I say that as a nigger with 5k hours in it

>>1159036 Someone should do that to limbus...

>>1155737 What the fuck happened to cuckchan after 2014?

>>1159036 is it really? I've never even played it but even I know it has a pretty gay community full of erp and trannies so mental illness being prevalent isnt a surprise

>>1159092 Moot left and the cuck jap who took over doesn't do anything so rapeape and abib became the new owners and killed it

>>1158776 >>1159036 >its wild how much mental illness XIV seems to foster and I say that as a nigger with 5k hours in it at the same time, this is the work of one person. the rest of us are just trying to have a thread

>>1145207 Does this mean they're getting rid of the shit mods on 4chan? They've been abusing their power for way too long now.

Someone tell the /vg/ guy to also turn off captcha per post jesus fuck

>>1159092 >What the fuck happened to cuckchan after 2014? Normies and Troons mostly. Also this; >>1159135 >>1159136 Yep, literally just one trooned out obnoxious faggot that's malding cause we won't give him any fucking attention anymore or play by his rules by sitting somewhere that has IDs so he can't invisibly samefag and schizopost people.

>>1159198 lol, lmao even.

Mark, could you deal with some of the weird shit showing up on /vb/? Like the gooner and cuck posts. <shitposting board!! Yes but usually particularly heinous shit is removed. Stuff like >>>/vb/11860 and >>>/vb/11383 is against what the board has traditionally been, which is a funposting lounge rather than a genuine cesspit. prease undastandu

>>1159118 It's not like it's all fags and troons but the ratio of troons is definitely pretty high compared to other games. Fortunately the whole gay ERP shit was never a thing when I played (or they just hid themselves pretty well) but I've definitely seen more troons in XIV than in all other online games and IRL combined. And even if you don't have those for some reason there are a bunch of mental cases playing this game too. I remember some retard getting so mad over /xivg/ adding (or removing?) some Discord link in the OP so he just carved some "add/remove the link in the OP" message into his arm. Fucking insane.

>>1159198 >Does this mean they're getting rid of the shit mods on 4chan? They're gonna double down on these libtard jannies and mods, there's no fucking way Hiromoot is competent enough to actually fix anything or identify what the problem actually was. Doubt he fucking cares either.

>>1159198 dont get your hopes up

>>1159226 > against what the board has traditionally been If you want to start arguing that, you're basically arguing to ban 4chan from all boards.

>>1159198 lmao never. Jannies will most likely get worse since people who might have cared about the site are now less likely to apply due to the hack.

>>1159226 Absolutely, please. Opening a thread to see soyjaks and "UHH WHY IS THE MALE WHITE??" does not induce the traditionally comfy vibe of veebee. Phoebe deserves better than this. Look at her, will you let her down? Treat her right.

>>1159261 it's mostly to do with a specific general on /vg/ that was tailor made and nourished by cliquefags and jannies on 4chan to be as schizo as possible

>>1159291 Don't threaten me with a good time!

>>1159198 95% chance its fake and probably wont change anything if it were real either way current mods are powertripping cunts and were compliant if not actively engaged in the schizo flooding and hidden agenda posting such as BBC spam etc.

>>1159374 A lot of you are alright, but basically every general I've seen take refuge here has been nothing but "cliquefags". They've annihilated our VN thread.

>>1159390 > if not actively engaged in the schizo flooding and hidden agenda posting such as BBC spam etc. They quite literally were.

>>1159406 We would gladly nuke all the cliquefags. They've been a blight since forever, and they're thrashing like crazy now because they're losing the janny-enforced grip on the threads that they had on 4cuck.

>>1159366 soyjaks should be banned on sight imo

>>1159374 No, it's 2-3 faggots that got enabled by tranny jannies to shit it up for everyone else and now they're continuing to do so even on a site that doesn't back them the same Jewish way the jannies of 4cuck did. They think they can strongarm shit to be the way they want it to be and not even banning XIV related posting will stop it. All it does at that point is punish the normal people while the spamming troons keep ban evading with VPNs cause it takes zero fucking effort to use a VPN to do so. >>1159406 Yeah that's the issue. Cliquetrannies have to be handled with an iron, decisive fist with all their methods of bypassing bans taken away. But the site owner doesn't want to take away said methods cause "other people use them for genuinely valid reasons too". Unfortunately you can't have your cake and eat it too with these types of freaks.

>>1159118 admittedly its far more noticable on the 4chins between /vg/ being avatarfag drama central and /v/ having video related allowing the reads to turn into a cesspool of shitposters and avatarfags but yes, it does seem to attract a lot of fucking weirdos i actually dont really notice them ingame funnily enough, even with me being on Balmeme but I tend to actually play the game rather than treat it as a chat room >>1159136 i agree that the autismo needs to be taken out back and shot, then put into a woodchipper for good measure but I still think a lot of the regulars are massive fags and i want nothing to do with xiv threads here >>1159198 lol lmao the only "positive" is people feeling vindicated at the mods being shitheads and shitposting twice as hard and telling the jannies to clean it up

>>1159529 >admittedly its far more noticable on the 4chins between /vg/ being avatarfag drama central and /v/ having video related allowing the reads to turn into a cesspool of shitposters and avatarfags but yes, it does seem to attract a lot of fucking weirdos if this UID debacle has proven anything, it's that it's painfully easy for a small handful of people (at most) to make themselves look like a legion.

>>1159529 I really really really REALLY like that video.

>>1159420 Do any of you happen to have the screencap about someone noticing that the BBC and interracial spam mysteriously stopped the very moment Israel was under missile attacks? Been looking for it and couldn't find it at all.

>>1159482 They usually are, but ever since the flood of refugees our vols have been much laxer, and for the worse honestly. /vb/ has historically not been moderated much as it was a very slow board. >>1159422 >>1159483 They technically should be bannable under R1 and R8, but as said above the vols have been a lot looser. Whether they're too overwhelmed or they're going to ride out the exodus before enforcing rules more strictly, I don't know.

>>1159420 >he

>>1159226 The slippery slope is, in fact, real

>>1159643 Banning them doesn't do anything. They just ban evade with VPNs cause it's so easy and effortless to do and 8chan doesn't want to give up it's VPNs.

>>1159551 True, im probably letting old perceptions of the site stick around And yes, UIDs are great and I feel completely justified for asking for it back on 4chan. Sure it'd be nice to not require them but the non stop shitspraying the site has endured fully justifies that people do not deserve to be have full anonymity in a thread anymore

>>1159742 >True, im probably letting old perceptions of the site stick around It's a strong perception, but it was also literally aided and abetted by the same 4cuck jannies that just recently got exposed that reveled in making sure xiv-related threads were as shit as possible and the worst voices prevailed.

>>1159643 That's perfectly understandable and unfortunate I'm an immigrant myself and realized it wouldn't be long before many more found their way here thinking of it as a good replacement Problem is this site realistically can't handle the traffic, the data storage and all the undesirables that comes from 4chan Although it has been going pretty good so far and I think most malicious people went to sharty

On that note, do any of you actually know the rules of this board? There's a couple, familiarize yourselves with them. If your thread was deleted out of the blue, the reason is probably in here. Trust me, there is a good reason behind every single one of these. Even R10, which is largely archaic now, was made address what was a real problem.

>>1159092 Things got real bad. /v/ in its last days had people posting CP to nuke threads they don't like and getting away with it and actual shilling for companies like Ubisoft and deleting all criticisms for them.

>>1159798 90% of normalniggers hate jp media and anime and that makes it obvious they would go to sharty.

>>1159705 From what I've heard from this thread, they managed to shit up cuckchan in spite of VPN bans posting wait times, so just like the per post captcha that was recently enabled, and then disabled, it wouldn't do much except fuck over regular users to ban VPNs.

>>1159092 >>1159804 heh

>>1143354 the gg tourists were shown the door to shitholes like this really need 4chan back, none of the splinters come close and never will

>>1159779 What you said, mods didnt want ids or ip counters because they were part of the problem

>>1143032 >[unintelligible gibberish] wehhhhhhhhh WEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Oh my God it's Erika. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfNaaqm8xPU

>>1159830 cuckchan got shit up despite VPN bans cause the mods and jannies straight up enabled it anyway by refusing to turn on the IDs and they shut off the IP counter.

>>1159841 Problem with splinters is that no one goes to them. I guess it took years for 4chan to build its userbase and the mass migration I was hoping for just did not occur. This barely feels like a 4chan replacement. Just the same thing as b4k.

>>1159825 anime literally boomed during covid with normalfags and jjk is the testament of that

>>1159905 Vee now has 1500 PPH

>>1159879 IDs and IP counters are indeed part of the problem. They don't fix any shitposting and only enable more. >>1159928 And 1450 of those are in /FFXIV/ and /bag/

>>1159841 >>1159905 I would once again like to remind newfags that 8chan is not a splinter of 4chan. It's a splinter of 8kun which is a splinter of old 8chan which is (kind of?) a splinter of wizchan: :^)

>>1159879 particularly in the case of /v/, the mod yournamehere kept xiv threads filled with shitposting and anything that gave a bad impression around, and pruned xiv threads with positive posting/legitimate discussion. even threads that started out being allowed for being anti-xiv shitposting threads got pruned after people started ignoring the shitposts to discuss the game normally instead. with the logic that "all xiv threads belong on /v/" because yournamehere hated xiv

>>1159804 I remember them stamping out famitsu sales threads during /v/'s last days supposedly due to flamewars

>>1159839 archive was revived under the .dev domain also what the hell is rainfall 2?

>>1159928 Jesus Christ you're right, 1727 right now. Way too fucking fast, that's about as many posts as we'd get in three days. So the board is, roughly, 75 times faster than it usually would be at the moment.

>>1159975 old 8chan was a splinter of 4chan faggot

>>1159928 It's all spam in the xiv thread. Some troon is mad that people refuse to post on the xiv board he made because that general on 4cuck was full of same faggotry and astroturfing done by the same half dozen attention whoring trannies. He's trying to force everyone to move over to his board by shitting up the whole site because the people who play that game don't want IDs and don't want to be arm twisted into participating in his own personal circle jerk.

>>1159953 I still don't understand why /bag/ hasn't been banished to /gacha/ yet.

>>1159991 I remember the constant Yoshida threads on /v/, someone must've had a real hateboner for SE or at least some section of FF series

>>1159841 >>1159905 Building a splinter community off of chanology 2.0 was never going to work out, there aren't enough people who give a shit and faggy internet slacktivism isn't going to attract a community of a hobbyists who want to have fun.

>>1160078 >because the people who play that game don't want IDs *want IDs I meant.

>>1159839 Are you fucking shittting me, just learned of this, so this is why we lost b4k? Are you fucking shitting me

>>1159927 He would be more correct to day that they hate "Otaku Focused" JP media and anime. The stuff that makes them go "well I like it but I think this stuff here should be removed"

>>1159830 VPNs definitely got rid of a lot of shit. There's no silver bullet measure, you basically pile restrictions on to dissuade all but the most deranged schizos, and in turn also minimize the damage those schizos can do. Unfortunately this ends up also impacting legitimate users but I don't think there's a way around that.

>>1160072 Literally not true, why do you think that? It wasn't directly an offshot of wizchan, but HW did make it after he was booted for, I'm not kidding -- having sex.

>>1160078 >It's all spam in the xiv thread yeah, i now see posts i made weeks ago on 4cuck being posted in it.. so he is using posts from the archives to spam with.

I think we need flags on top of IDs. I really don't want to be arguing about what vidya is good or not with some favela monkey who couldn't afford the game and has sour grapes mentality towards it

there are more 1 post by this IDs than actual posts in xiv thread right now

>>1160172 Now he's not even recycling 8chan xiv posts anymore, but 4cuck ones too? Holy pathetic.

>>1160172 Correct. I say nuke his splinter board. You can't force people to use your board if they don't want to just so can be the center of attention.

>>1160127 b4k is still up, just under .dev instead of .co

>>1160209 >cuckchan faggots take pride in buying games You're about to experience some culture clashing there my man.

>>1160144 because the only reason it came to any relevance was because it was deliberately advertised as a splinter to 4chan when gg was purged the entire sites identity was that it was the 'free speech' splinter to 4chan, i remember it very well

wondering if xiv is the fastest thread on this site currently. everytime i refresh its +20 posts by 1PBTD

>>1160092 >Chanology 2.0 It's been awhile since I heard that. Moot, that you? The GG thread has been nothing more than a "WaTErCoOLer" thread for probably seven years now. At one point they were on their own board, but ever since the move to 8moe they've been back on /v/. GG as an actual political "movement" died at some point in 2017. Obviously I'm not expecting newfriends to know deep 8meme lore, only trying to correct some misconceptions.

>>1160299 Bot is (was?) posting over 10 posts per second so probably

>>1160209 >>1160283

>>1160144 >having sex He gave up on being a wizard

>>1160299 the piece of shit bot filled an entire thread in like 3 minutes earlier

Love how jannies are leaving posts up they’d normally nuke to save face. You should all be informed that they normally make Swiss cheese out of the “prevent psyops”. In reality, they use this excuse to lump all posts they dislike together and nuke them. Just keep that in mind if you think the cake Hebrew is better than 4jannies just because he lets you say nigger.

>>1159406 I've felt more and more in recent times like 4chan funnels people into cliques because other surrounding threads are incomprehensible word vomit that's been repeated 10000 times already and got boring long ago. I search around for actual discussion of something only to find myself knee-deep in a general without realizing. >>1159839 glad I missed all this. >digging up all the glowie proof Post it.

>>1160249 Yeah I know but still fucking annoying, and breaks old links and stuff

>>1160288 Then you were lied to, I guess. The site predates the so-called first exodus, as there were in fact several smaller ones from other communities, by about a year.

>>1160299 its some schizo having a tantrum and botting because he wants people to use his xiv board

>>1160024 >due to flamewars I remember that too. I can vouch for it.

>>1160024 >>1160391 While leaving up 5-10 anti-nintendo threads with literal misinformation up at the time those were taken down, no less. The famitsu thread here also got nuked when the macaco started samefagging as usual.

>>1160381 why would you pretend the site had any traction whatsoever outside of being the gg refugee shithole? and yes i appreciate the irony that i've ended up here as a refugee myself, but that is what it was, full of bitter retards who were upset they couldn't take over the whole site with their autistic crusade

>>1160391 good. no your weekly shitposting schizowar general isn't videogames. everyone here has already seen what your threads are like.

>>1160458 >(1) Hello macaco.

>>1160439 They still basically took over. Mods may have killed literal GG threads but they let the incessant culture war shit stay.

>>1160493 >>1155835

xiv is 100 % full of bots. theres literally no real posters anymore

>>1160439 I'm not even sure what you're attempting to argue and you're getting quite hostile and upset about it, so I'll leave you be. Enjoy your stay, Anon.

>>1160056 I assume they mean Operation Rainfall.

Are images loading slowy for anyone or is it just me?

>>1160558 They were very well behaved until the troon melted down that no one wanted to share a board with him.

>>1160346 >he lets you say nigger. already based af

>>1160587 yes but .se is fine

>>1160626 Oh so that was the reason

>>1160599 >>1160558 mods should consider gaining control of that situation considering how easy it is to destroy a thread like that, imagine it expands to the entire board or even the site

>>1160439 >still mad about GG >eleven years later Goodness, impressive grudge.

Generals should not be here honestly. Anyone who posts more than 10 times an hour should get banned or their post cooldown extended by ten minutes. You are terminally online if you feel the need to reply to every single retard in a thread.

>778 posts >725 IDs theres nothing mods can do about this?

>>1160680 were laughing at you bro

>>1160521 God, what a cocksucker And of course a literal black jeet is the main person responsible for culture war shit on 4chan It's been obvious forever that third worlders are the ones most interested in the subject.

>>1160699 Go back to your cuckjak site.

You guys have really cool banners here.

>>1160661 They've been deleting posts for hours but the bot is just vpn hopping.

>>1160685 ...where is that?

>>1160787 its the xiv thread. its fully flooded by a bot spammer. every single post is a literal bot post

>>1160699 nice IP hop :^) ELEVEN YEARS

>>1160699 stfu

>>1160772 There's a reason why 4cuck banned most vpns

>>1160685 What do you want them to do? If he's a retard they might range ban him but unless they want to ban VPNs there aren't that many options.

831 IDs now btw

>>1160827 And still got fucked by ecker's proxy and the clone of it someone made

>>1160762 I've always been partial to the /vb/ banner of the little ghost banging his own sister.

>>1160853 that's a bad example to set. hope other schizos don't realize that it's (apparently?) that easy to shit up a thread without recourse

>>1160806 Xiv thread >anons have a xiv thread >well behaved >talking about the game >everything is fine >tranny from 4cuck arrives >decides to make his own xiv board so he can be center of attention >posters tell the tranny to fuck off >they don't want to use his board >engage: nonstop bot flooding from angry tranny

>>1160699 >were And your site was existing.

That proof of work thing sounds like it would stop him

I hope people don't start accusing others of IP hopping all the time going forward

Speaking of banners you now remember all the ones 4chan got rid of for no good reason, I think I even have a few saved somewhere. It was the beginning of the end

>>1160938 It would, but cuckchan niggers only have the concept of a VPN in their head so they can't grasp anything else.

>>1160854 >>1160806 Holy shiiiiit I just went to that board, 3 fucking 1k threads in the span of 2 days??? Jesus Christ

>>1160680 why would i be mad, you got purged kek

>>1160954 Where did they get rid again? Kinda gay to that more banner weren’t made to

>>1160938 Tell the site owner to hurry up and flip that shit on then.

>>1161020 the board owner of /xiv/ is trying to force us into his board but nobody wants to go because >hes from 4cuck >can see everybodys IPs >had to enable IDs to try and get us to move i will never move to the /xiv/ board. we all will stick to the /v/ thread but as you can see its fully spammed by this 4cuck tranny having a melt

Site is way too slooooooow Mark this is your time to recapture the glory of 2014, people are seeing how superior this site is, you need to fix the one issue (speed) before halfchan comes back up

>>1161063 Board owners can't see peoples IP's, they're hashed.

>>1160894 is there a full to that?

btw the spammer reached 1k IDs

>>1161083 Proof? Big if true as long as the retard leaves IDs enabled on his troonshit board.

>>1161083 yea i dont think so until proven otherwise

>>1161063 Why don't you try /vg/?

Why is it always MMOniggers anyway? I heard similar bullshit from both PSO2 and warframe. And that's ignoring the mountain of schizos that come out of WoW.

>>1161148 Took surprisingly little time to find!

>>1161210 >>1161231 Go take 30 seconds to make a board yourself and see retards. It would be monumentally fucking stupid if any random board owner could see peoples IP addresses. And you would all be complete fucking retards for using this board if that was the case.

>>1161238 problem is its some retarded ape trying to force everyone onto his board so going elsewhere isn't an option, he'll just follow them and keep spamming

>>1161238 Cause the tranny will spam that too you fucking moron. This is an issue that has to be tackled by the site moderators.

>>1161238 never. the board owner is spamming the /v/. never and ever will you get us to move to the xiv board. also >move to /vg/ it wont change anything he will spam that too because he wants us to move to his board. ill never happen

>>1161242 Yeah, I dunno. It's usually a single schizo. Like with PSO2 it was gwiz shit and leveraging their position at Sega to get people they didn't like from 4chan banned. Kinda even the same about /xivg/ on 4chan, except they just have janny friends or something and no one works at Square Enix so there is no real power to be abused besides 3 day bans. Either way, it's usually just one person or a small group that ruins it for everyone. Don't know why MMOs attract those specific types of people though.

>>1161269 >>1161271 >>1161309 Maybe trying another altchan? I'm just saying, you should have options for cases like this

>>1160439 >>1161352 >Don't know why MMOs attract those specific types of people though. Genre that's explicitly an escape from real life

>>1161265 >the guy that did the Frankie cookie animation based

>>1161453 >just quit and leave this website because of one schizo lmao nah

>>1161242 Those all have large playerbases so it's more likely they have these kinds of people

>>1161540 Well life goes on

>1,3k IDs this is definetily a case for moderators not volunteers. also why is none of it getting deleted anyway? like no action is being taken

>>1161269 You could just make another board dedicated to it, prepare more mods dedicated to the faggot then migrate there in the meantime. You could also do the thing of meeting up in-game and discussing there the best strategy and idea since you faggots seem to know eachother. >>1161609 Big workload and a more permanent solution being build up in the background more likely..

>>1161609 How did you guys deal with stuff like this on 4chan?

>>1161661 90 second post timers and 15 min penalty for new IPs

>>1161661 4chan staff is actively malicious so they mostly didn't Well this >>1161669 but if that failed they just let it happen

>>1161661 cuckchan mods let things be shit

>>1161309 They literally don't want you https://8chan.se/xiv/res/11165.html#q11165

>>1161669 These were 'features' that made it unusable for me. I am not willing to wait to post, got better things to do.

>>1161609 >>1161661 I am building a legal case for digital ID. A birth certificate will be required to post.

>>1161661 The people currently spamming the board the the same ones who were running shit on 4cuck. That's precisely why everyone refuses to use /xiv/

>>1161661 You could totally ban all well-known VPN providers and automatically detect VPN connections, with the exception of residential VPNs (which are generally rare.) A captcha that actually functions would also fix the issue. As much as people hate it, a timer before new IPs may post also helps. I'm sorry to say it but imageboards probably do not survive the Browning of the internet. Between scriptkiddie bots, AI and people who should be executed on live TV like soyjak faggots, this format does not survive an internet where people only log in to try and make it as insufferable for everybody else as possible. It would be like introducing a modern day spic gang member to a 17th century American colonial town.

>>1161696 I'm still waiting for you guys to change bogeymen again, last night whoever Shara is tomorrow who knows. Have spammers seen that yet? >>1161730 I wouldn't be shocked to go into an xivg discord and see a bunch of people laughing about causing all this mayhem.

>>1161696 Lmao

>>1161669 Well I was not an avid /vg/ user but even I fell for the "/vg/ does better vidya discussion than /v/" and I started using a general for 2 years. Then I learned why people hate generals and why moot didn't wanted them either, it creates people like that spammer. I pity you guys.

Like I get that bandwidth is a precious resource, but I keep getting >Error 429 Slow down asshole >Slow down asshole I really am not trying to overwhelm the site. I guess I shouldn't check the catalog quite so often. But how could I best avoid this? Would it help if I had fewer tabs open in general? Is the auto-refresh on the pages a huge strain perhaps?

>>1161669 >90 second post timers Too much. Annoying. I seriously hope you guys don't do this. >15 min penalty for new IPs I can see this being really damned effective. An inconvenience, but if implemented properly, users who were already posting would avoid it while IP-hopping spammers would be significantly slowed down. A temporary measure, of course.

>>1161779 Our site admin has said if you get this too frequently, try not to open more than two pages a minute until it calms down. Don't worry, it's easy to accidentally trip the anti-DDoS.

>>1161779 Use watched threads instead of having multiple tabs open.

>>1161661 We didn't. There was always massive bitterness and distrust between anons as a result.

>>1161791 >I can see this being really damned effective. An inconvenience, but if implemented properly, users who were already posting would avoid it while IP-hopping spammers would be significantly slowed down. A temporary measure, of course. The feature already exists in an IP agnostic way. And I have no idea why Acid hasn't enabled it yet. The site has a proof of work feature that requires your computer to do math for an arbitrary length of time that can be adjusted to get a bypass cookie so you can post. And anyone that already has a bypass cookie doesn't even need to do it. Acid could functionally enable a 15 minute new poster timer without even touching IP addresses at all.

>>1160995 Speaking of CUCKchan, I recall a significant amount of them ironically or unironically like ntr. >We correctly bully suck faggotry here, but now that the rapefugees outnumber natives 100:1, how will such reckless faggotry be put in its place now?

>>1161768 >hate generals Don't threads here get rolled into each other if similar and you're expected to look for threads that fit what you want to discuss? That's basically what ends up becoming a general. A general is simply a thread that exists to hold discussion in one place instead of having a bunch of threads for it.

>>1161791 Yeah, unless you constantly swap VPNs or phonepost and airplane mode a ton that sounds like an acceptable sacrifice to get rid of spam.

>>1161811 Perhaps enabling that under the current traffic would break the website?

>>1161841 15 minutes is a long time. What we're trying to fight right now is a barrage of spam that fills up threads. The problem as well is that if someone shows up (oblivious), wants to post and they're punished immediately with a timer they'll probably just leave instead.

>>1161242 MMO games foster bad social behaviors. The way wow fostered hostility between players in a fucking cooperative game for 20 years is abhorent.

>>1161848 I'm hoping that he's working on making it so it can be enabled on an individual board basis because he doesn't want every single new user to get blocked out by it and be confused. But there's been virtually no communication about the spam issue so no one has any clue what measures are being taken.

>>1161857 then just enable it until 4chan is back up in a week or so, then it can be disable when things settle down.

>>1161863 He's not lurking the /site/ meta thread? >>>/site/5423

>>1161821 I learned that discussing about the same thing every day 24/7 will surely consume all topics left to use. That's when people will start to eat each other in order to create a narrative or content for the general. Because said general must be kept alive by any means necessary, that's when you get thread personalities, drama, doxxing, spamming etc. When I understood that I started to look for threads that were made once in a while about that game I like. It also explains that strange phenomena that you could discuss things better outside of their respective boards, because you will not encounter the local schizos and the topic feels more fresh. In short, death to all generals

Deleting posts critical of moderation is a fundamental violation of freedom of speech. Hypocrites!

>>1161859 >The way wow fostered hostility between players Not only its own players, but players of other games as well.

>>1161904 This was only a problem on 4nigger because the jannies actively played turf wars making all the generals shittier and trying to get people to fight each other. Right now the generals on /vg/ and /gacha/ are surprisingly peaceful even when half of them have fuck all new content to talk about until their respective new patches.

>>1161857 You could shorten it to 2-5 minutes, that'd still help. Although it seems like they have a handle on it now.

>>1161879 >until 4chan is back up in a week or so That seems kind of quick after having a full code leak for the site

>>1161879 >week or so It will be longer than that anon also nobody like the 15 minutes post limit it would just kill this site

>>1161926 Wish I had the /alter/ screencap of one of the mods coming in to the thread in the midst of a shitpost campaign and telling people (the non shitposters) to be "on topic" and people calling him out on it and he accidentally samefagging with his admin name still on

>>1161960 This one? >>1159420

>>1161904 >I learned that discussing about the same thing every day 24/7 will surely consume all topics left to use. That's when people will start to eat each other in order to create a narrative or content for the general. >Because said general must be kept alive by any means necessary, that's when you get thread personalities, drama, doxxing, spamming etc. This is why as far as MMOs are concerned I prefer to just net a few people for RP and dip cause it's basically the only way to technically make your own content for something. PvP games have the benefit of technically having infinite content cause matches vs other humans are generally each unique and people can just queue together for games. But once PvE content in MMOs dries up it's kinda fucked and MMO PvP is worse than playing a MOBA lmao.

>>1161926 I don't trust them, just give them time...

>>1161963 Believe it or not, but no. ANOTHER one.

>>1161904 > will surely consume all topics left to use. That happens even with sparse threads. Metroid threads on 4/v/ are a good example because until Dread released there was years without new content and everything was discussed to death but they never became what you describe. People enjoyed talking about the games and rom hacks even if they had many times before by that point. The issue is that anything eventually draws people seeking attention, and those people need to be handled, not the places they get drawn too. All that does is make it so people who weren't part of something can't talk about it since they missed out on it.

>>1161973 I knew shit was bad from browsing 4/v/ but I didn't knew shit was THAT bad.

>>1147882 Sorry anon but I recommend a full backup+ reinstall. The sharty is actual glowniggers. I prefer to be paranoid about these kinds of evil fucks. They groomed picrel into doing a shooting. >>1159420 Now look at 8/trash and ask yourself if 5 BBC threads are organic.

>>1161982 >fell for ragebait again award

>>1161929 Nevermind I fucking jinxed it.

>>1161981 >The issue is that anything eventually draws people seeking attention, and those people need to be handled Exactly, and since the attention seeking BO on /xiv/and xer fellow discord trannies from 4/vg/ are almost certainly the ones currently flooding the board I ask why /xiv/ hasn't been nuked?

>>1161981 Yeah I'm aware that even bad actors can appear on really good sparse threads, my point is that generals tend to create people like that more often and crazier

and the schizophrenic tranny started to spam in the new xiv thread again

>>1162348 As much as I'm willing to believe it's someone from /xiv/ doing it we don't know if it's the actual owner.

>>1162249 Yep. Just went back in to check because it seemed to be alright again, and right as I post, it commences again. What a lifeless cretin holy shit.

>>1162425 Oh, Jesus, every single post in it is a bot replying to itself, often several times a second.

>>1162446 Then slap the board with a 30 min post cooldown until they stop shitting up /v/.

>>>/site/11163 >>>/site/11163 The admins are actively working on anti-spam measures rapefugees. You can stop crying about VPN's now.

>>1162543 pic is proof hes mentally ill

>>1162374 >my point is that generals tend to create people I don't think they create them, I think that moderation that does nothing to stop them when they appear emboldens them into getting worse until they end up like the one you're seeing now. I've used generals where no actual crazy people were created. /vhg/ never had this issue. And smaller chans that have generals don't have this issue. It's an attention whore issue at it's core, those aren't created, those are already born that way and they just need somewhere they think they can start to get attention.

>Everyone here always shat on cuckchan for the 15 minute wait timer >It actually only applied to your first post >Meaning it was TABS, but actually less of inconvenience, because TABS stops people from posting at all if they haven't yet, whereas on cuckchan, new posters just had to 15 minutes Lmao. Cuckchan actually got something right.

>>1162543 it's harvesting 4chan archive posts too

>>1161926 >conspiring on Discord Imagine the smell.

>>1162628 Note; My statement about moderation isn't about here. It's just a general statement. I feel it could be taken that way but it's not what I mean.

>>1162637 There were multiple anons that pointed out it was the same exact thing as a PoW bypass when people first talked about it here.

>>1162667 Reminds me of those screenshoots about Elden Ring and Shazam posters.

>>1162642 Exactly how you know it's the same trannies from 4/vg/ that the anons in the xiv thread said they wanted nothing to do with. They need bot content and they're so self absorbed and attention starved they go to the archive of their own posts to get it.

>>1162348 Your desperation to get it nuked really makes me think you're the one doing it, but I don't actually know that for a fact and won't claim assumptions to be true, oh well.

Mark & Acid probably want to keep the site as accessible as possible to not scare off any refugees already exhausted by excessive timers & bans. On the other hand ddossing and flooding from bad actors is a thing they'll have to deal with. People arriving will also question why action isn't being taken not to mention the oldfags witnessing all of this. Not an easy position to be in. They're probably just gonna roll with the punches (as much as they're able) until deadchan is back. Or until it's been another week or two. At that point it's been long enough for people to decide to jump ship or stay on deadchan. Until then we'll just have to buckle up.

>>1162723 I never saw them, but yeah, it's PoW except with a non-randomized timer. And hell, if you have enough computer, you automatically just bruteforce PoW anyways, which anyone bruteforcing the captcha definitely has. These tools are all either useless or downgraded versions of cuckchan's anti-spam measures.

>>1162628 If the sharty and its origins are any indication (mods did literally nothing about them and their raiding until they were *raiding other 4chan boards, specifically*) I think some of the 4chan mods are really keen on the idea of having their own pet lunatics as a form of moderation stand-in to make threads so miserable they disseminate willingly

>/v/ at 9k users with the other boards ticking up as well >boards are being made rapidly >Israel is range banned It seems this is our home now. Does any anon happen to have the "here in 8chan" webm? It was really comfy.

>>1162454 Welcome to trooned out schizo attention whores that have been getting enabled by the moderation team on cuckchan Jewish style for several years. And soon you'll all find out anything but the heaviest handed options will prove ineffective in truly curbing or stopping them too.

>>1162600 I suppose we should count our lucky stars he is only autistically devoted to ruining the fuck out of one thread/general, rather than the whole site

>>1162840 >>/v/ at 9k users 6000 of those are a spammer.

>>1162786 Yeah retard, it's the people actually trying to use /v/ that are flooding /v/, not the ones who were bitching for two days that people were posting here and not on their look at me board.

Would toggling the newest xiv thread as cyclic keep the spambots contained for the time being? The actual thread targeting seems manual.

>>1162873 >spammer Just like old cuckchan then? At least blacked posters get banned.

>>1162847 these things didn't get curbstomped enough by their parents growing up

>>1162925 Well yeah, no Israel no blacked.

>>1162864 Don't give him any fucking ideas

>>1162897 That seems like a very good temporary stopgap from the whole catalogue flooding with the garbage

>>1162890 Yeah /xivg/ was the fastest and most schizophrenic general on 4cuck, it's not really that far-fetched that the same retard spamming blacked last night is doing a new retarded raid. The insistence is pretty suspicious especially when you've been told not to migrate.

>>1162928 Understatement of the fucking century.

>>1147986 shut up shartynigger. Quit posting CP and hacking people. Feds are coming for you faggots. >>1162864 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvxkEvM81tU

>>1162628 I agree about the moderation being shit and having part of it, and Im mostly talking about generals from 4chan as I'm not an local anon from here or others altchans. Generals on 4chan are bad or turn into shit with enough time and I don't want to see them here (generals from 4chan coming here to be specific ) due to my experience knowing how they turn out.

Another general that didn't have any of these issues was the Elona general on /jp/. No crazy posters like this, just people talking about their runs in the game and making OC, and that game stopped updates on the core game back in the early 10s and the off shoot versions updated very slowly. >>1162834 It would fit their lazy style of moderation so I wouldn't rule it out.

>>1163008 >Yeah /xivg/ was the fastest and most schizophrenic general on 4cuck Followed by /bag/, and /v/ just inherited both.

>>1163008 Have you fucking looked at /xiv/ yet? It's plain as day it's the exact same schizos from 4/vg/. Their avatars are all over there and the archive.

>>1162963 Unfortunately leftoids don't just live in israel.

>>1163041 Calm down carlos

>>1163074 /bag/ is just chatroom goofballery, not some kind of histrionic autism. You can tell by the UIDs in the thread alone, but also keep in mind how they've been rather easy to handle since they came here.

>>1154413 If there's one thing you can count on when it comes to retards, it's that they never learn their lesson or admit they were wrong. They will double down and become even shittier after this.

why do i sometimes see at the bottom 'life updates' instead of the 10s refresh countdown?

>>1163074 Is it? I thought they just had a lot of coomers. >>1163086 Yeah like I said you have a really deeply vested interest in this and it's just odd to me.

>>1162897 Not sure if it would work for longer than five minutes, assuming somebody else makes a new thread that is actually usable while the bot-spam is distracted; will eventually notice. "XIV thread doesn't really exist" either way, one is being spammed cyclically and infinitely, or one simply can't be made because the bot will sprint into it

>>1151599 >janny provoking image

>>1163055 >and Im mostly talking about generals from 4chan I cited two generals (second on in >>1163072 from 4chan that had existed for years and didn't have the issues you see in some of these other generals. Mainly because the posters self moderate and because they simply don't attract attention whores because they are about niche things. If the mods had killed those attention whores on those other generals on 4chan, they wouldn't turn to shit. They are bad because the mods allow them to be.

>>1163156 live*

>>1163145 >>1163165 If their obsessive shitposter finds them, it's gonna be another thread with hundreds and hundreds of spam images.

>>1162897 yeah, it seems like it only targets one thread at a time and can't do multiples. though we're not sure if that's true.

>>1151131 >put it hidden in terms You have no digital right to privacy :^)

>>1151599 Atlyss is a good game >>1152613 Eat shit GR3 allows it on 4chan /v/ >>1163184 Anthro in general pisses them off

All I know about /xiv/ on 4chan is that they were constantly getting threads deleted for ERP garbage on /v/ (and that's bad enough), is it even worse than that?

>>1163165 Yeah, I do, because for about an hour there I actually was able to talk about a game I like with more than 2 people for the first time in years and then the same 5 trannies who made 4/vg/ unusable showed up and sprayed diarrea all over the place because they weren't getting enough attention.

>>1163186 I completely agree on that Generals from slow hobby/niche boards were very good, I should have phrased it that most generals were bad, speaking mostly from 4/vg/ or /int/ as these people would sometimes go outside of their boards to create mayhem somewhere else

>>1161973 The archive still works if you want dig stuff up. https://arch.b4k.dev/

>>1162840 >"here in 8chan" webm? Not sure what webm you're talking about. I have multiple bumpers though.

>>1163238 There's a huge difference between "Obsessive shitposter" and a spammer using bots to lock up a thread though. Some mentally ill shitposter is also way easier to deal with than someone botting.

>>1163288 No, not on /v/. /v/ just instadeleted all xiv threads because the jannie there hated the game. /xivg/ was where all the erp was and it was encouraged there because the jannies on /vg/ were the ones engaging in it and instigating it.

>>1148957 Would that explain why I would get banned out of nowhere fora post I never did?

>>1163244 >yeah, it seems like it only targets one thread at a time and can't do multiples. It's not a set and forget bot, it's a dude monitoring what's happening and changing accordingly. >>1163288 >All I know about /xiv/ on 4chan is that they were constantly getting threads deleted for ERP garbage on /v/ You don't know much then.

>>1163301 Those people were basically give the keys to the kingdom to do that by the moderation team. You have people saying they report those very people only to get a three day themselves for "filing false reports" and other excuses. The site was the moderation teams playground and they let people shit up things they had issues with.

>>1163301 /int/ became such a shithole in recent years it was incredible.

>>1163288 It seems relatively probable that a lot of the attention currently being spammed to 8/v/ was also dedicating time and mental energy to spamming 4/v/ threads, and certainly 4/vg/ threads. The obsession with the arch.b4k.co and .dev archives' contents is similar

>>1155737 splitting /v/ into sub boards like /vg/, /vrpg/, /vr/, ect was what truly killed the board.

>>1163396 >it's a dude monitoring what's happening and changing accordingly. This is genuine mental illness holy shit

>>1163244 Here's hoping we don't have to find out. >>1163289 Yeah you say that but the people who've spamming 'not moving btw' since 4chan went down, even in regards to /vg/, are all avatarfags who've never posted here prior and can't even read the pinned post saying not to move. So forgive me if I strongly suspect you have some agenda. There was discussion for a lot longer than an hour a few days ago, as well.

>>1163483 Essentially the /v/ thread had obsessed anti-XIV schizos (this includes a website moderator) /vg/ had a lot of avatarfags and weird gay drama from autists who can't be normal online, along with a little bit of gameplay discussion, they sometimes turned into eachother's girlfriends

apparently captcha is dying because of that retarded schizophrenic spammer

>>1163289 Hear hear on this.

>>1163372 >>1163396 I guess I combined "their threads get deleted" with "they do ERP" in my head then.

>>1163551 >Essentially the /v/ thread had obsessed anti-XIV schizos (this includes a website moderator) Oh right, I forgot to add. It was pretty normal otherwise save for one or two avatarfags and a guy who really hated them.

>>1163483 You are 100% correct. The sharty is most of the spammers. Look at /trash/ right now and ask yourself if 5 BBC threads are organic? Was it organic on 4chan? no!

>>1163285 >If you hate her, leave She has syphilis and spent a significant amount of time fantasizing about getting railed by a nigger. It's unsurprising a lot of people hate her. I just headcanon those things away.

What is all this XIV stuff? FFXIV?

>>1161926 d*scord was such a fucking mistake but I bet it was instrumental in lowering the guards of all the jannies caught out

>>1163615 Yes, and it's here because someone is running a bot for hours now (at some point it was posting over 20 posts per minute) to kill the threads

Oh they do do erp, just on /vg/, not /v/. /v/ you could catch a b& by even mentioning the game positively in passing.

>>1163403 I was so mad when I started reading about that that I've been seriously thinking about setting camp here and never coming back. For a long time I believed that the moderation team was just incompetent and inexistent and that people should do things by themselves, but actively making everything shittier is such a dick move. The only thing I feel bad about the site's death are the slow boards that were filled with so much knowledge and resources and there's no way to get it back.

>>1163632 >at some point it was posting over 20 posts per minute second* sorry

>>1163632 its posting atleast 60 posts per min now.

>>1163588 Yeah it got to the point that the two avatarfags present were not actually present more often than not and it was the lattermost guy obsessed with them pretending to be them to give himself an excuse to spam, he was also prone to hours-long meltdowns if he got warned or banned by a mod in any way since he's a backseat mod at heart and "you're not on our side" is a backseater's worst nightmare To my memory he was also completely obsessed with a figure he called "Homestuck" after a Homestuck reaction pic was used on him more than once and he would constantly try to bait arguments believing he was baiting out his enemy, more than once was warned/banned for spamming about Homestuck

>>1163325 /bag/'s schizo uses bots. Just, look, if he gets here, you'll know because there will be scat in their thread, meaning on the front page, and clogging up the moderation queue for those who signed up to deal with it. He's basically unstoppable and he causes the thread to turn into paranoid metaposting.

>>1163632 So the game was driven off of 4chan /v/ and now someone has made a bot to spam it here?

>>1163663 They came from 4/vg/, xivg had the fastest moving generals on halfchan for a while and with quantity comes a lot of potential for mental instability. I'm surprised the /trash/ threads aren't the ones getting spammed this hard.

>>1163548 Cool. You're a gullible fucking retard then.

>>1163673 I could say the same of you and it'd be more accurate, have a nice day though.

>>1163672 Did the 4chan mods/jannies fuck with the FFXIV threads? And either way I dont know why someone would spam it here

>>1163633 how it went was more or less like this on /v/: >schizo shitpost threads about /xiv/ were allowed by yournamehere >proper discussion threads were not, and would be summarily pruned >schizo shitpost threads where people started ignoring the shitposters and started discussing regularly got pruned >proper discussion of xiv on /the overmoderated /v/ was consigned to the chronically undermoderated /vg/ under a false consensus of "all xiv threads are generals" (unless they were being shitposted to death of course) >on /vg/ the few jannies that did exist would do their best to stomp out whatever embers of proper discussion remained while emboldening schizophrenic avatarfagging >4cuck dies >people who actually want discussion see an opportunity to escape the power-tripping moderator and the high school circlejerk schizos' clutches >high school rejects won't let that happen without a fight >[you are here]

>>1163641 >are the slow boards that were filled with so much knowledge and resources It really is a shame. I just hope most of them had some site archiving them so they can be saved in some way. I know a lot of boards didn't have one sadly.

>>1163663 No, they're here because 4chan died On 4chan you had the /v/ threads (more game discussion when not actively sabotaged by moderation) and the /vg/ threads (more of a chatroom) /vg/ was far more active. >>1163704 Nobody is "spamming it here", some guy is trying to make the xiv thread unusable with a spambot is what's happening

>>1163624 I've heard the argument that discord was just the solution made up for a problem caused by the modern state of the internet with bots and spammers and low IQ individuals, since nobody gatekeeps effectively anymore. I am inclined to agree with this

>that schizo on the /trash/ loud house general that the mods refused to do anything about >eventually people realized he had doxed himself so they reported his violent threats to the police and now he's banned from going near public schools >he eventually came back after a few weeks anyway despite their threats to continue fucking with him until he stops shitting up the threads

>>1163704 4chan mods had a literal decade-long hate boner for FFXIV and tried their hardest to chase it off the board in the daytime hours, nighttime mods didn't care at all, eventually daytime mods started letting the threads go completely unmoderated (beyond thread deletions/banning OP for "generals") because it was easier than actually enforcing the unspoken hate boner

>>1163612 Loona doesn't have syphilis.Pilot isn't canon and even if it was canon penicillin can take it out, that or hell magic. And she is color blind in terms of dick preference. Vortex friendzoned her and was then forced to suck cop cock at gun point, and then she stayed at a party she was about to leave because of a white guy flirting with her, DYEWTS?

>>1163766 you think that's bad? our pet schizo doxed himself on KF by trying to use it as a personal army

>>1163848 Whomst?

The sharty should become the new /trash/ of every single altchan so mods could move bad threads there (but they cannot send anything back) Just an idea

>>1163704 Not on /vg/ as far as I'm aware, the janitors on halfchan always moderated posts they shouldn't have, though, seemed like that was what most of the thread was discussing prior to the spam. I remember right before the blacked/archive spam started yesterday someone was talking about linking it to players in-game so maybe they gave the link to the wrong begrudged individual.

>>1163882 look up dylan walsh on KF

>>1163713 Thank you for the summary anon, fucking spammers always runining the fun with their mania.

>>1163750 >>1163787 >>1163912 Mods are faggots and trying to destroy FFXIV threads is faggy too

>>1163766 What the actual fuck?

>>1163939 Reminds me when wow had actual paid shill threads on /v/ when a new patch was coming (literal threads just going 'wow X is coming in the next wow patch, are we playing??' threads back to back) but of course that's fine and dandy 4chan has very bad moderation

>>1163847 >Loona doesn't have syphilis.Pilot isn't canon That's not what I recall. >And she is color blind in terms of dick preference Don't care. She was willing to suck nigger dick. I'd be less off put by her canonically fucking horses and dogs.

>>1163713 >>4cuck dies >>people who actually want discussion see an opportunity to escape the power-tripping moderator and the high school circlejerk schizos' clutches >high school rejects won't let that happen without a fight >[you are here] Pretty much. It's a half dozen trannies unwilling to let their one source of attention and power go. More real xiv discussion had occured here prior to the spambot than the entire 5 preceeding years on 4/vg/ combined. And talking about the game is not allowed when you should be talking about how cute the 4/vg/tranny's avatars look and only how cute their avatars look.

I like Raven Team Leader, 0 build fortnite rocks

>>1163766 The schizos ability to ruin and obsess with anything they get involved with for years on end is truly impressive and should be studied whats also interesting is I dont even think most of them are legit schizos but actually autistics with ocd

>>1163641 >The only thing I feel bad about the site's death are the slow boards that were filled with so much knowledge and resources and there's no way to get it back. While you will have to wait a few months for people there to notice 4chan is gone and to gather here, it's not going to take that long either, a lot of people in very niche hobbies were already aware of altchans and even browsed some themselves.

>>1163988 The full /j/ archive and IRC logs are probably the biggest egg on their face out of everything going on, in addition to the complete proof that the site hasn't been updated in ten years; everybody has total, irrefutable proof that they're dumb shitheads who don't do the jobs they volunteered to do, up to and including GrapeApe who gets paid to not do the job he was grandfathered into by Moot leaving

>>1163904 Best idea I've ever heard. I'd make you world leader if I could.

>>1164018 You are correct they are autistics with OCD. Schizos are the ones who simply know things by looking into their dreams.

>>1163990 >That's not what I recall. Did you ever even go on /co/? And all women IRL are willing to suck nigger dick. All women IRL are willing to suck any color of dick if she is into the guy. If you think women of any race have any "racial loyalty" you are wrong. Wake up.

>>1163919 Now there's a name I haven't heard in a while.

>>1157894 >>1158010 >>1158072 Any solution is going to require someone to actually code an answer. >>1159092 mootykins handed it over to someone who doesn't even really speak english and has never used the site, who essentially handed full control over it to RapeApe. RapeApe then proceeded to treat the site like it should be a social media platform instead of a community. >>1159118 It definitely has a troon problem, but our threads mostly haven't. They have a larger issue with prison gay, attention-starved rejects using it as a chatroom, but those people seem to have fucked off almost entirely here despite absolutely being told this is where everyone else migrated.

>>1163904 How about global admins word filter the sharty and ban people from advertising it? Since the sharty is a glownigger honeypot that tries to hack its users.

>>1164096 i'm pretty sure he's still going too. null really should've told his ISP.

>>1163995 >It's a half dozen trannies unwilling to let their one source of attention and power go. once you realize this, it all makes sense. everything.

>>1164018 Looking through the archives he apparently managed to drive them off-site and kill the threads entirely. https://desuarchive.org/trash/thread/74440247/#74444158

>>1164094 All of them?

>>1164094 >Did you ever even go on /co/? Not much. I just, you know, watched the show directly instead of reading walls of theories. Pilot felt pretty damned canon to me. >If you think women of any race have any "racial loyalty" you are wrong. This is a cartoon, not 3DPD.

>>1164226 The most hated piece of data at the Mossad, this is why they're letting their pets rape kids and women now, goyim aren't mixing.

>>1163926 And it's always like a fraction of the whole, too. That was always believed (and very likely), but UIDs here proved that beyond a shadow of a doubt.

>>1164226 What? Is that about all men wanting white women? Men are sexually opportunistic (which is based), women are too but have way pickier standards and they really just don't care about race >>1164254 The creator of the show announced that the pilot is not canon so yeah. And yeah it is a cartoon and Loona doesn't even have a race cause she isn't human

I NEED to have this banner in my life again.

So Im guessing all the people from 4chan got distributed roughly evenly across all the altchans?

>>1163988 In stark contrast, the day the most recent patch for XIV came out (7.2), the /v/ janny that obsessed with it was watching the catalogue like a hawk, sniping any threads about it before it could get even like 20 posts. Simply because he knew a new patch would bring an influx of positive discussion about it, and he didn't want that.

>>1164092 Legit schizophrenics on boards are few and far but normally pretty easy to spot since they tend to end up the paranoid/delusional type not that I blame them >>1164175 Ya thats normally what happens when a malicious autist latches on

>>1163311 saving all of them, thx.

>>1164299 >and Loona doesn't even have a race cause she isn't human Except she's clearly a basic white goth girl, and her voice and demeanor, and human disguise match.

>>1164299 How can you not read that chart when everything is labeled in big letters?

It should have been me.

>>1162637 >>1162723 The original proposal for the 15 minute timer (or "IP lurk timer" as we named it on /qa/happenings originally) was basically just to free up the mod's workload so they could cut down on shitty posts. Main issue is that they never did that after implementing it, but just kill spam like usual. No idea how well it worked but it did cut down a bunch of posts statistically (particularly on 4/pol/)

>>1164359 You gotta mentally let go of her being willing to have sex with a black guy. She'd be willing to do it with you too.

this is agonizing

>>1164094 >>1163998 anyone got the renamon version?

>>1164175 I know nothing about it but it's always cracks me up to see people upset about lolis like some of those posts in that thread seem to imply

>>1164405 >No idea how well it worked but it did cut down a bunch of posts statistically (particularly on 4/pol/) Considering 90% of 4/pol/ was astroturfing and social conditioning anyway it hardly matters.

>>1161242 /lolg/ on cuckchan had the same issues with a BBC spammer posting for six hours a day, every day, during Euro hours.

>>1164472 4chan has a lot of double-standard semi-puritans

>>1164440 And I'm supposed to believe it's just a cohencidence that the spam bot is choosing to spam shit from the 4/xivg/ archive.

>>1164453 I used to I dunno where it is sorry, have this as a consolation. This is what sex robots are gonna look like.

>>1164539 as a /v/ xivfag who avoided /vg/ like the plague, it's extra sour to have discussion once again ruined by some mindbroken /vg/cunts

>>1161661 The moderators tossed a wooden nickel at a coder to code a bandaid fix that prevented the most low-effort spam, banned VPNs, and then were forced to implement a 15 minute delay on new IPs trying to post for the first time. It still couldn't prevent dedicated autists.

>>1164440 That's pretty terrible. >>1164453 GIWTWM

>>1164507 and he's been doing it for over 10 years now

>>1164539 Yeah whoever it is seems to be most tilted about /xivg/'s status quo being disrupted without him around to enforce it

>>1164440 I made one post then closed the thread, not worth caring 'til it's fixed and I imagine it's not that easy to.

>>1164599 Who?

>>1164639 >>1164586 You need to spoil those, silly.

>>1164636 Fuck, I should have cleared the name. I'll level with you, I need a (You) to test my script and this is the fasted thread. Someone give me a (You).

>>1164480 exactly, but even the basic implementation scares off posters who have no patience (or phoneposters) or are retarded simple bots You'd need a tailored technical solution to wait to get "ripe cookies" enmasse ready for someone to pick up to get past the IP Lurk Timer, but by then you're already cut down on the amount of trash posts distracting mods. Issue is that 4chinkz's mods are fucking retarded and apathetic and don't like changing the status quo so the cut down on workload doesn't make them stamp down spammers harder it just means they do less work. Here on fullchan that might be different since board mods could be more active and aware of issues. There's a lot of "horrors" that have been created to try and mess with 4chan over time, which is the main issue here. The solution I talked of? I'm pretty sure it already exists in one form or another since spammers on 4chan still existed last time I checked.

>>1164636 >>1164685 the israel BBC spammer on /lolg/, he's been spamming BBC porn every day, 6 hours a day for over 10 years

>>1164668 Oh sorry. She has no nipples, and that's uhh, thigh fat on the bottom.

>>1164715 The strangest thing was how he'd ban evade in like 10 seconds I never understood how

>>1161904 /gacha/ currently is a fucking paradise compared to cuckchan. All of the regular schizos are gone and it's nothing but funposting and positivity, even with nothing new to discuss.

Giving backshots to RTL and her friends Meowskulls and Kimiko. Also you can use shockwave grenades as a movement item if you do it right. 0 build only as always.

>>1164534 Oh I know, it's just funny to me that even on /trash/ they act like that

>>1164747 Probably some form of residential proxy, I know for a fact that the solution I mentioned here >>1164690 exists, but only in the form of someone providing some kind of system that lets them prepare cookies to ban evade with before they time out.

Thanks for the (You)

>almost 10,000 users holy cannoli!

>>1164815 Neat!

>>1164815 Yw

All of you need to play Fortnite 0 build. Its free and so there's no reason not to try it.

>>1164819 Most of those are an obsessed FFXIV spammer trying to kill its presence on 8chan

>>1163244 It's literally just a scriptkid programming a spambot on the fly. He starts and stops and changes how it functions as global mods implement new measures to stop him. He didn't bother to program in the ability for it to find threads on its own, he just manually targets the threads. Thus why when someone made a new thread, there was about five or six minutes where his spam wasn't happening.

>>1164819 C'mon anon a good chunk of that are the bots from the xiv spammer, >>1164918 His spamming is considerably slow right now

>>1164819 It's a 4/xivg/ tranny's spambot. Don't get too excited.

>>1164715 Using an elaborate wordfilter list seemed to help catch the majority of his posts, but that only hid them for me. It didn't stop him from posting them and forcing everyone else to see them.

>>1164937 He's been actively fiddling with the bot all day, so it'll probably pick up again until Acid either finds a proper permanent solution, or he gets bored of the back and forth with mods.

>>1164416 I do mentally let go of it. With headcanon. >>1164364 Reading it would go against his headcanon.

Got her off the fortnite store just now she just came out yesterday

>>1164815 I hope you continue working on this even if 4chan comes back

>>1164952 Well it seems his spamming is at it's slowest right now so either he is getting bored or the mods are doing something

>>1164761 >>1164908 >>1165014 ok furry fortnite shill, can I get any of this skins without spending money?

>>1165159 bro is getting tired filling out captchas

>check 8chan frontpage >all the featured posts are all from the tranny spammer

>>1165161 Yeah by playing the game and earning v-bucks via stuff you do in game

>>1165216 Defuckingpressing.

I'm bout to play my first match as her and do sexual emotes immediately after killing people (they are briefly forced to spectate me)

>>1164916 It's not so much as him wanting to kill its presence on 8chan, it's the opposite actually. He only wants people to talk about it on his board so he can be the center of attention and control the and astroturf the conversation. They did the exact same shit on 4/vg/. Nothing there was actually about the game, just about the same handful of tranny avatarfags from a discord and their assorted simps.

Play 0 build. Its fun, its free, its pvp, its being constantly updated. If you wanna play X Y Z that's fine, if you are struggling to find something to do and your bored, you should give this a shot. If you dislike it you can just uninstall it and not lose anything in the process. Game tips: >hug the edge of the circle >go for weather towers when you can >3rd party people >avoid being 3rd partied >if you are going to fight someone, hit them fast and hard or else dont do it >move ASAP after getting in a fight, even if neither of you are killed, because other people will hear it and come after you to 3rd party >stack mini shields >use minis before big pots >learn how to snipe >chug jug is meta this season >fully auto assault rifle is meta this season

>>1165493 Once again to play devils advocate, we don't actually know if the /xiv/ fella or any posters in there are behind this

Remember newfags. If you choose to stay here you are no longer green, you are red.

>>1165159 you jinxed it

>>1165159 >>1165709 Like I said: he's actively changing how this bot/script works on the fly to try and bypass countermeasures.

>>1155835 Why does "video games" always serve as the main component to low-effort takes? It's like they can't say "media" or else people would make fun of them, but they say video games so people just back down and accept it. Even politicians / news pundits do this too. Video games > every other medium & hobby btw, the skill require to develop them, the entertainment value outstrips everything and it's not even close.

>>1165559 You're free to doubt but if you knew how those schizos operate and if you recognized those avatars like I and others do your doubt would dry up pretty quick.

I don't know guys, even in abscenes of the spammer the post quality doesn't seem too much different.

>>1165559 It's not. Admin can check IPs and IP ranges any time.

>>1165942 People aren't making all gold-standard posts, but most of the fucking dregs have disappeared.

Thank you Janny for cleaning up the shit famatsu thread. It's been a shit thread on /v/ masquerade as an informal sells thread between two parties and so much low effort drama.

>>1165942 A conversation can actually be had in threads without the spammer around which is a big change for both XI/v/ AND /xivg/ /v/ threads were commonly trying to have a conversation around a spammer who would be inserting himself into your conversation to beg stupid questions and start stupid arguments at seeming random and /xivg/ threads are as you currently see in the thread spam

the absolute fucking state of this board lol

>>1165614 I don't think they'll understand. was green anon even a thing on 4chan post 2014?

>>1166207 In drawthreads he has been.

>>1166207 there's plenty of OC with green anon that's more recent, I'd even say he's more common now than he was 10 years ago

>>1166235 huh, I figured he got replaced by pepe or something.

>>1165359 alright, guess I can give it a try, how long does it take to get one of these skins?

>>1166207 He died out around that time, cripplechan picked him up and made him red since everybody was calling it the 4chan successor, picked back up again later in fits and spurts by 4chan proper since cripplechan was so /pol/ and /v/ centric they largely didn't bother with red Anon in favor of Punished Snake /v/-tan and, uh, Hitler. As far as 4chan goes Anonymous ended up being used for a lot of /mlp/ related projects and comics since /b/ was too busy being porn-spammed to death to make anything anymore

>>1166098 Is that so? I saw it a lot of times in 4/v/ but never bothered entering them. Is it like console wars?

>>1166207 this is from a drawthread 2 days before it went down.

>>1165988 Anon if the spambot was using a static IP or a range this would have been solved hours ago.

>>1166292 Fortnite is constantly adding new skins and taking pre-existing ones off the store, and is always bringing back (some) of the skins sporadically. So whenever you have the v-bucks is when you can do it. If you get enough v-bucks from playing the game you can use em to get the battlepass, and then you level up to level 100 with it and you get enough v-bucks to buy the next one

>>1166285 reminds me i haven't seen a frogpost yet, thank fuck
