One of the deadest boards. Activity is down 80% from peak. The influx of evangelical schizos around the COVID years made everybody else fucking leave.
I know people were shitting on 2017-2019 for being all Hitler and haploshit threads but I would take even that over the travesty of a Bible discussion forum for middle aged Midwest moms this place has turned into.

This is all the mods' fault. The haplo idiots themselves were bad enough, and the mods enabled them because they were constantly trolling people and causing more traffic. But then eventually those posters who were being trolled simply stopped posting. So the mods then let the religion posters spam as much as they want in order to make more traffic, and that's now caused the board to became even more unused. Never blame anyone aside from the mods.
>>
>>18375545
The mods are insufferable and easily identifiable. They actively make things worse and you get insight into their demographics by their moderation strategy:
>racism for me but not for thee

Even with that acknowledged, the loss of traffic is site wide and the primary cause is simply that 4chan has fallen behind the times. The owner has chosen to sit on his property and do nothing with it. If 4chan wants to survive, it has to take hints from modern social media.
Publish an official app.
Update the functionality of the site. Add features.

4chan should have had an official app since 2010-2013. That's how far behind 4chan is.
>>
>>18375557
The lack of activity is because everyone's on X now. Also the new captcha is annoying
>>
>>18375565
The new capcha is a good thing, a great addition in fact. If you post every day and don't get banned you'll collect credit and it will eventually get extremely easy. Not making this up.
>>
>>18375557
An official app would bring in more retarded phonefags and reduce the post quality. They should just ban all low effort posters, bring back year long range bans as well.
>>
>>18375565
X became popular because of the features. Then it hit a critical mass where people joined because their friends are on it. There's no sort of engagement bait on 4chan where you have to join because your friends are there.

Also people don't like uncontrolled spam. 4chan never became good at stopping spam so it has this reputation as a place where anyone can post anything 24/7 just because he hates you.

>they should just completely kill the website by turning it into one of those irrelevant zombie altchans that get like a single post a month
There’s a reason why admins don’t pay attention to the “suggestions” of this userbase
>>
>>18375572
The 4chan userbase is aging. Either get with the times or get forgotten gramps
>>
>>18375582
Newfag are you aware that they tried making a mobile version years ago? A lot of anons were so angry they stopped doing it and also would ban anyone that mentioned it.

I've been using this website off and on since 2009 and I can say with confidence that I'm glad it's dying.

>listening to the opinions of plebs
Retarded. It's like they want to be poor and unpopular.

4chan could have been printing money a decade ago. It could have been as big as reddit or twitter.

4chan, Reddit, and Twitter all need to die if we want the world to be a better place. All any of these websites have done is foster Chuds and Tankies to wage cultural warfare over the attention of laymen and further divide the world. As much as I would miss the fun and shitposting, I truly think the world we be a better place without these places.

>glad one of the last parts of old internet culture is in decline
Why do you say this?
>>
>>18375598
They don't have the staff or desire to put up with the sorts of people an official app and general modernization would bring in. It wouldn't be worth it.
>>
>>18375607
They don't have the staff because they're poor and unpopular
>>
>>18375606
Old internet culture is already dead though. When I started using 4chan websites like Newgrounds were still hot shit, and they aren't anymore, sure they're still around but they're not relevant anymore. Better to just leave all this behind where it belongs, nothing is meant to last forever.
>>
>>18375615
The alternative is even worse places like twitter and reddit, if you want this website to decline then you're wanting that out of spite.
>>
>>18375620
I think twitter and reddit should also die
>>
I've said it a million times and I'll say it again, there should be a separate board for religious discussion.

Christfags don't belong in any historical discussion if they think the world is 6000 years old. I get sick of every thread being usurped by faggots who think a zombie jew from 2000 years ago gives them eternal life.

I also wish to impart that the original wording of the gospels in Koine Greek implies that Jesus's relationship with his fisherman boys may have been *significantly less wholesome* than previously thought. The only one of them who was even an adult at the time was Peter.

In the last supper he's feeding his fisherman boys his body and "haima" (frequently translated as semen, in other parts of the bible in different stories). When they go to arrest Jesus, Jesus asks them "why do you arrest me like I'm some common criminal"? Only the word frequently translated as "criminal" or "pirates" , leistes, usually referred to human traffickers/slavers. Many of whom trafficked children for unwholesome intent.

Boyfucking was really in style in that place and time, and I'm inclined to believe that the Christian tradition of molestation, goes back to the very founder.

This is true because I recently deleted the cookies and after it I had 3 puzzles instead of 2 before or sometimes even none.

Right now I have 3, I'm leaving time to pass to see if it is reduced to 2 after a while. I have a doubt about that, I don't know if it is needed to disable the ad blocker to get the 2 puzzles or if only posting it reduces to 2 after some time.
>>
>>18375537
This board was only good for its first six months or so. The "& Humanities" part has been utterly disastrous by inviting in tons of disingenuous, terrible posts, and the mods refuse to properly moderate this place despite how volatile the subject matter can be when considering that there are already related messes like /pol/ on the site.
>>
>>18375713
>The "& Humanities" part has been utterly disastrous by inviting in tons of disingenuous, terrible posts
That's every board on this website anon, people using something vaguely related to the boards topic as a springboard for off-topic discussion. I recall moot referring to this as "fool's posting"
>>
>>18375722
>I had to use the email verify because I keep getting blocked from posting.
Same
>After having no clue why I was blocked, the only thing I could think of is that I was posting from an old Windoze 7 PC with an old version of Chrome that 4Chinz doesn't like so it won't let me post naked.
Well, I'm using Linux (Ubuntu) with Firefox, so that might not be it. I think for me it was because there happens to be a notorious schizoposter (the GDP = tourism guy) that happens to post within my local IP range (we both happen to post from the South LA/North Orange County area) which lead to me getting caught in a region block over it.
>>
I heard that somewhere on /g/ I think. Outdated browsers can cause that because the site officially doesn't support them anymore and they're considered unsecure.
>>
>>18375656
it also skips all the spam/bot checks so posts go through faster. if you post naked then there's a noticeable delay.

fucking nafo yuro trannies killed /k/. it's a bunch of fucking no gun war tourist eastern yuros and for some reason the janny defends their asses. we need a board split. I have fucking 90 threads hidden right now because it's all no gunz shit

there used to be some kind of test score thing where you got a fake range ban if you had more jeet like settings.
like using brave, using an android and having an old phone would increase the fake range ban message score. using safari and having an iphone would lower it. I know with the new cloudflare challenge thing they added a few weeks ago ghostery would fuck with it and would cause it to think ips were residential proxies and give actual range bans

I'm waiting for you to talk about the low-quality spam threads made to criticize "Christianity," why didn't you mention that? These threads appear every day.
>>
>>18375545
>haplo idiots
It is an extremely useful field for modern history, and consequently, for archaeology. Cry, cut yourself, dilate, and repeat the process 5 times
>>
didn't you realize that these extremely low-quality threads are all made by the same author?? Let's remember:

The same user obsessed with Christianity creates these threads every day using wojaks.

The Brazilian spammer and his anti-"wignats"

These two users are flooding the already dead forum. It's super noticeable their writing style and the specific type of posts.

One of them, whom I prefer not to name to protect my ID, has some strange "abilities," managing to delete comments and get many people banned, especially when criticized.

Perhaps limiting the number of posts you could create would help, as well as flags.
>>
>>18375807
By now everyone knows this. It's pure spam after spam and a flood of things unrelated to the topic itself once my posts magically disappeared after catching his attention
>>
>>18375807
Is the brazilian one the same person who makes threads every day about "iberians"?
>>
>>18375797
the haplo shit is literally just about arguing who is white and who isn't
>>
>>18375818
At first, I didn't think so. But in a thread while flooding, he posted the exact same photos and literally the same post kek so who knows? But this insect copies and pastes garbage from desuarchive.org, so maybe it's not him.
