>less than 150 threads up at any time on a board>most of them are ephemeral and intentionally silly Does the very nature of 4chan change how we communicate here? If we changed the amount of pages, or threads, available, would it alter how people communicate? Should there be a smaller or larger character limit? If so, how would communication change? Should we use the archives to study how people communicate? Is 4chan one of the last public platforms to have somewhat de-identified digital footprints?
>>108553158dunno, but i fucking love not having an account.
keep the same visible character block, like 20 lines, put other content under spoiler
on 4chan i can call people the nigger word or the kike word and not set off an army of butthurt kikes and leftists or their automatic hunting/doxxing programscan't do that elsewhere
>>108553195You can do that on twitter now though
>>108553212i have a username there so enemies will attempt to go after me
>>108553195ur fucked kiddoI just traced ur ip
>Does 4chan change how we communicate Yes, the karma system and its consequences were a disaster for internet communication. The in group preference and NPCification of the general populous made people more homogeneous and boring. >If we changed the number of threads Raising it wouldn't do anything, but lowering it would destroy the platform. The shit threads float to the bottom and give space for new threads without killing quality old ones. If you made threads more scarce then people would kill threads much faster. >More pages Ok, but then you disperse the population and inevitably have dead pages. >Character limit I think its fine for most responses and you only run against it when you are ranting or addressing multiple points in a debate. >Should we use the archive It just werks >Is 4chan the last platform that cares about privacy Yes, unfortunately. Though that privacy is mostly illusionary it grants enough freedom to be honest.
>>108553195> and not set off an armysay the E word in here and see what happens
>>108553289I've got it traced as well. He's fucked B-)Here's a hint. It starts with 192.268OP can confirm by typing "ipconfig" in the program "cmd."We never forgive. We never forget."

>>108553158>If we changed the amount of pages, or threads, available, would it alter how people communicate?I think it would be possible to have threads that stay up longer without low effort spam. It would be a good idea.
>>108553166You have an IP though.
>>108553195>can't do that elsewhereOh yes you can. >DreadThere i said it.
>>108553212>>108553262that was the problem with reddit. Those faggots will comb through your post history to discredit you, plus the downvote system acting as hivemind censorshipsometimes your reputation might matter but for general internet discussion anonymous is best
>>108553158I don't think the quality of threads will be ever the same again, a certain kind of ideology filled the place that was incompatible with the prior users, there were real geniuses in here that appreciated the anonymity of it before anyone else, like in every field, I remember once a thread from a doctor that was fucking great at diagnosis, people that were real fucking obsessed autists at their trade, now this place runs pretty much by inertia, but I don't see those "genius" threads anymore, or very few inbetween
>>108553707well said, the pp bio preceeds every message, they spend more time concerning themselves with brand formation and reputation status games, not wrangling with the core of an idea
>>108553645>purple reddit
wtf is purple reddit
>>108553158People outside of 4chan and the imageboard culture like to hate on it because once in their lives someone called their retardation out, without expecting any social punishment.If you observe the culture of most other social networks, be it online or not, you'd find people always trying not to offend others, even when they disagree.Even if most people here are retards, I like how everyone can just say whatever he thinks without any calculation of the damages it will make to them, without any expectation of likes or interactions, you're like crafting your post and sending it to anons as an anon, which makes some creative posts, in contrast of the repetition of most mainstream social networks, which they just stole the idea from 4chan anyways.Imageboards are one of the last windows of the original internet.
>>108553645>>108553842>dreadC'mon, that's one of the worst places, you're surrounded by crackheads and pajeets wannabe haxors
