here's another interesting one

literally every board exhibits a 2/3/5-fold drop. Except for an interesting outlier - the niggertranny dumping ground where india timezone OPs keep 10+ nigger and 5+ tranny threads up at any time. Whenever your board is getting heavily spammed on schedule, it will exhibit a minor drop in its average (like 30-40% in this case) and flatline when most of the real humans have left, leaving behind only the orchestrated spam.
>>
>>528913413
interestingly enough these graphs show most people congregate on faster boards while in the past it was more spaced out. almost certainly because the "userbase" here today is actually just bots spamming while the old userbase was actually people with diverse interest.
>>
>>528913445
I lurk, but it's mostly because there's not much of substance worth replying to. You either have trannies wanting to defend infinity niggers, or fags defending kikes. I don't gain anything from interacting with these demons who should be exterminated. Unless it's some faggot glownigger, then I'll fuck with him.

let's do another quick test - if the traffic was legitimate and it was explained by coomermaxxing, it would appear on the other free-form coomer board.

however things start to change all of a sudden when we exit the porn sample and go to the ideological leftist one - we just found the exact same graph as /gif/ here >>528913578 . Flattens out at exactly mid-2023.

This correlation can give us a good clue about the state of /gif/. It's not natural porn addiction at all that is keeping it alive right now. It is the same traffic found on the ideological /lgbt/ board. The same marxist trannies from /lgbt/ are keeping it alive by spamming threads artificially, to put it bluntly.
>>
>>528913388
This place is compromised, nobody wants to come here anymore. The writing was on the wall for a long time, but we outnumbered the bots and shills.
Now its the reverse, go to any real organic thread on topics that deserve to be constituted as "news" and thus worth discussing. And you will get the same 10-20anons at most.
Mossad,cia,mi6 and all the rest and the jeet,chink,russian shills etc are informed to actively never participate in said threads and only to slide them.
Those same "people" then go make another why arent men having sex thread and shitfling with each other to generate discourse to get people to engage with them.

Its all fake and gay here and anyone with half a measure of common sense can see this already or read this message and understand it themselves.

a flattening graph after 2023 is not coordinated inflation. all communities have lifecycles: growth, peak, contraction, then a stable core. A smaller but steady userbase produces exactly the kind of plateau you are pointing at.

if it were artificial spam, you would expect obvious signatures: strict time cycle regularity, identical bump intervals, repeated lexical fingerprints, or synchronized thread titles

traffic drop does not mean "artificial inflation" lol. It just means fewer users and a tighter niche

Here's the deal.

1. Anonymous posting is dangerous. Even with your footprint its still somewhat plausible denyability and most are caught during the interrogations.
>Google " dont talk to the police "
2. Registering an account to an email YOU own is easier to prove. Imagine when its tied to your social security # (drivers license) that's in 5 years or so. One small step at a time.
3. Then the profile is linked for perpetuity and posts made 20-30 years prior will be used against your children as they castigate you ala red army.

Its an interesting mishmash of 1984/solvent green overpopulation

I've been shitposting since stileproject and if the pieces were ever assembled I'd probably be immediately liquidated

This is the truth. Every time the update the shapes in the captchas, there is a 24-48 lull in traffic.

The site stagnated, the owner doesn't even speak English, and there's nobody competent on the administration team to do the needful.
>site doesn't even receive security updates
>no new boards are ever added (despite an obvious need for an internet celebrity board); site no longer evolves
>site lacks fun features that other imageboards have (webms with sound, autoplaying gifs, polls, multiple images per post, more text formatting, etc.)
>increasingly difficult for regular posters to post due to rangebans
>character limit on slower boards (/int/, /his/) is too low and stifles discussion
>mods never interact with the community

Whoever is in charge of the website needs to stop being a boomer and should just add a few more boards, and modern features that every other imageboard has. If having autoplaying gifs/more text formatting options is too distracting for the boomers, just allow an option to disable them. The site is on life support and will continue slowly dying unless there is an actual attempt to add new features.
