>Every Wednesday used to read the Storytime threads on /co/

Bros, what happened?

/co/ doesn't really care about most new comics.

Trolls have actively been campaigning to destroy storytimes.

Can't storytime as much I used to
I got a job
>>
>>153679535
Storytimes? We always have them. There's a full TMNT comics storytime right now, go read them. But obviously we have less storytimes. I don't think that anons want to post and read bad big 2 comics, or basically almost every new comic in general. And sadly anons don't care about niche or obscure titles.

>>153679535
>>153679585
Yeah i bet u two called the comics i liked shit so fuck you

That includes the storytimes, if you dislike a comic or think its gay you can simply close the tab

Dang, you're right.

>>153679535
Storytimers are soft now.
One of them stopped because I was ribbing the Planet She-Hulk threads too hard.

>>153679535
Comics are too woke and gay now. Like look at absolute. That's supposed to be the creme de le creme of comics right now and it's the same gay fake edgy shit we've been getting for over a decade at this point. It's genuinely sad people don't read comics anymore but after seeing absolute Batman get so much praise you really can't blame them
>>
>>153680162
I laughed my ass off at the Haitian bakery in absolute Marian Manhunter.
>>
>>153680033
They're weak and terrible now. They combine storytimes or storytime garbage DeviantArt webcomics.
Then there are the crazies, the ones that storytime comics no one reads like War Picture Library and the like.
>>
>>153680162
>Like look at absolute. That's supposed to be the creme de le creme of comics right now

It’s embarrassing you think that. Like holy shit, what are you, nine years old?
>>
>>153680193
Kek see that's directly off of someone's twitter feed from 2024 as the election was ramping up. People just don't want that shit in their entertainment. I'm glad comics sale like shit
>>
>>153680195
Alright smart ass, what comics should storytimers storytime than
Drop names
>>
>>153680195
They take things way too personally.
>>
>>153680214
It's the only comic line that gets any kind of news headlines or makes note worthy sales. And op is specifically asking about storytimeable comics. Everything else is just as woke and gay as those so what other comics are even relevant?
>>
>>153680225
>I’m triggered by a bakery in 2026
>>
>>153680257
>bake the cake bigot
>>
>>153680257
>Bakery
Yeah a Haitian bakery. That's so specific and clearly political. Never been so glad to not buy new comics
>>
>>153680248
>b-but sales! Headlines!

Just because something is popular doesn’t make it good or the best thing being published at this very moment.
>But storytimes!
This is just cringe. What, you think only “good” comics get posted in storytimes? LmAo this board is obsessed with whining and talking about superhero comics and ignores everything else being published on a weekly basis. Underage people aren’t supposed to post here.
>>
>>153680267
This is how brainrotted people here are now.
>>
>>153680294
"It's amazing how much leftist discourse is just them pretending not to understand things, thus making discourse impossible."
>>
>>153680294
If you leave the brain rotted people will be gone.
>>
>>153680284
All that text and you haven't mentioned any of these supposed great comics that exist. I'm just calling Absolute gay and retarded, don't know why that bothers you so much
>>
/co/ might as well be CBR fart huffing chamber for Anthony Gramuglia types. Reminder /co/ liked Dan Slott up until recently and only caved because of peer pressure.
>>
I'm gonna post a good faith answer so there's at least one

It's no longer feasible to do a storytime unless you have a pass or are autistic enough to put up with the captcha, that's it
>>
>>153680325
Says the person crying that simply having a Haitian business show up in a comic is inherently political and bad

It's completely political and is only included because the writer is a fag

Carl Barks' Ducks seems like a good idea. Has this been done?
>>

captcha makes it impossible to post.

Chuds really need to seek help from a psychiatrist, this is super disturbing level of derangement
>>
>>153680373
That's not why. I bought a pass in 2016 to do story times. However today when I do storytimes no one replies. Before 1/4th of the posts minimum would be people reading. Now it's less than 3%
>>
>>153680436
would you feel better if all the anons all just got together to come and give you a great big fuck
>>
>>153680411
Multiple times across /co/'s life
>>
>>153680195
I do read them.
>>
>>153680195
The retards that do restorytimes of shit books like the likes of Rainbow Rowell.
>>
>>153680436
Sorry anon, I mostly lurk. Also a lot of times I read threads when they have 404d, when I get home late from work. But please know you are an essential part of what makes this place special, and thank you for your selflessness.
>>
>>153680436
Then you're doing it for the wrong reasons

The idea that you've got to have major engagement is what leads to storytimers creating personas for people to argue with and leads to your threads becoming a cesspool like the Spider-Man threads
>>
>>153680563
I just want people to read shit if I'm posting
Spending 2 hours posting images with 1 reply sucks
>>
>>153680436
How silly of you to expect much discussion from old comics. This board only cares about new comics when it can be used for ragebait
>>
>>153680588
Just because you post something doesn’t mean people will be interested to read or comment, chum.
>>
>>153679535
The captcha became to much of a hassle and I’m not paying for a pass
>>
>>153679535
You forgot to start any
>>
>>153679535
Nobody cares about new comics because they suck. Nobody reads storytimes for older comics because most of the people here now are cartoon zoomies who want to waifupost or spergpost about whatever youtube animation slop is hot this month. Storytiming is also a pain in the ass because the 60 second cooldown timer makes it take forever when it should be 30 seconds for OPs image dumping. There's still stuff I want to storytime though.

>>153679585
I've noticed thst too. In the last month or two there's been one fag constantly seething and bitching about them.
>>
>>153680563
Not that anon but there's a line between getting no engagement at all and having a thread explode. The latter is bad but the former is disheartening. I storytime stuff just based on me personally liking it or thinking there might be interesting discussion to be had and if I can get a small community of regulars then that's fine, even if it's only maybe a dozen or so posters.
>>
>>153680563
You're partially right. But a big part of having a thread is the discussion that comes with it. Without the discussion you may as well just go to any comic site and read there instead.
>>
Does the post timer still keep getting longer and longer the more posts you do without a pass? I haven't posted a comic in so long I'm not sure if the site still does that.

Alright, I'll spoonfeed you all the story times currently up on the board. This will prove your point and showcase how few of them are up right now.

>>
>>153679535

Dumping a 30 pages comic takes like 40 minutes
