>browse old tumblr because why not>one of the ask RP accounts was hacked by "cbat">remember seeing it on /our/boorusI'm too lazy to research this shitposter, is this just a soiteen or someone else?
>>42540424It goes way deeper than you want to know. There's like a 20 page Google Doc on this person's history of spamming on the Web, and their spamming of pony boorus is only like 1 paragraph of it.
>>42540456Are you sure that's not a bot(net) then? It sure as hell sounds like one.
>>42540487Sounds more like a glowie operation to me.
>>42540487>>42540529Nah, it's real. This person's mostly harasses random small time artists and has been 8 or 9 years, first on deviantart then chasing them to tumblr and other sites she thinks they might be on, shitting them up in her wake. Her spam on the boorus isn't even 1% of all the crap up they do online the whole thing is more than a fulltime.Here's a tiny, tiny taste of them, and a crumb to follow if you want https://sign.moveon.org/petitions/put-chloe-may-johnson-in-prison
>>42540836How do you know the cbat spammer is that person? Where did you even make that connection?
>>42541048It came to me in a dream.
>>42541048Since Cbat originated on Reddit, it's not outside the realm of possibility that he would infest other websites as well.
>>42542266Yes, but how does that give any indication it's THAT person specifically?
>>42542266>RedditIt's amazing how this site manages to be cancer in everything it does.
>>42542659It's what you get with a post-rating system that encourages popular opinion through voting, compared to the anonymous system of 4chan that encourages equal discourse (and even some contrarianism).
>>42542707>a post-rating system that encourages popular opinion through votingAnd a terribly partisan moderation team.
>>42543300I have no experience with it, but it's not like this place is that much better in that regard.
>>42543426It's ten times worse on Reddit thanks to political correctness.
>>42542707>he thinks 4chan is any different just because the points are measured in (You)s and "based" responses for good and insults and slurs for bad
>>42544037Not even going to bother responding substantially to this dumb shit. If you can't see the difference between a system making your post less likely to see by burying it at the bottom of the page and the system used on this site you're obviously arguing in bad faith.

>>42540424Wait, did the spammer hack the AtC account to post this?
>>42545146-fag has a neutral, even affectionate connotation on here, my little offboarder. It is ill-suited for the pure hatred these enemies of pony inspire.
>>42546222No, just remembered I saw a post some time ago saying tornados in that state knocked out the servers. Just a stray thought.
Is Ponybooru just dead forever?
>>42546481Maybe. I haven't heard anything about that.
>>42546745It's literally up right now, so I don't know what you're talking about.
>>42547235It's not. I don't know what you're talking about.
>>42547272Oh I see, the main page is giving a 500 error. I didn't notice because the direct links to images still work.

After speaking with a random selection of anons at GalaCon, it appears altboorus aren't very well recieved by some. Ignoring the irrelevance of >yurop, is there anything we can do to win over the congoing normalfaggot audience?
>>42552415>Is there anything that can be done about retards with inertiaI mean, we can push them over the crest and get them downhill off a cliff i guess. But that doesn't really solve the problem.
>>42552415>it appears altboorus aren't very well recieved by some.Kek, what do they say? I want to hear how stupid their arguments are.
>>42553436Complaints were mostly levied at the comment sections of Twi, and to a lesser extent, Poner, and my shoulder surfing revealed virtually everyone used Derpi. It really does bewilder me how the European mind considers no-no words to be worse than mare erasure (marerasure, if you will).
>>42553944Typical leftards. There's no fix unless you want to just turn alts into Derpi.
>>42553973Yeah, it's the best to ignore those complaints. There's no way to please them.

It appears that ponebin ruins Zalgo text, as well as other characters. For instance, compare https://pastebin.com/c5uf0k0L with https://poneb.in/c5uf0k0LIs there any archive that better preserves the original characters?
>>42556886Must be a charset issue. Just did a quick test on Ponepaste and it seems to support special characters just fine, so you could use that.
>>42556886By the way, Ponebin was delisted for a reason (specifically, blocking Russian IPs because of the owner's personal bias). Considering it doesn't adhere to the thread's core values - anonymity, privacy and freedom, it should not be relied on for anything.
>>42556999I'm not trying to upload new greentext. I'm trying to find old greentexts, preserved in the most faithful way possible. Is there a better archive of these than ponebin?
>>42557038Desuarchive
>>42556886Check the source archives linked from the mainpage. If its fucked up there (high chance, because most files do not contain any charset declaration) it will be fucked up on ponebin too. Another known to wrong thing is the trimming of leading whitespace. I checked a few, and the source archives are all over the place. A few does not display correctly with any charset I tried. Then I gave up making an alternative, its a mess where you need to manually handle a fuckton of edgecases. Gave up after having like 500 lines of code trying to guess the encodings. I get one edge case right but cause half of the other files to break. Ponebin at least serves the mayority of files correctly. If the archive containing the latest snapshot of a paste was utf it works. Fuck non utf files using random encodings.
>>42557473Thanks for looking into it.
So how much effort would I need to put into separating my pony identity from real one, if I wanted to publish something I made for myself, because others might also find it useful? Looking at other pony tech some people show their faces or suits at cons, some are a mystery to me so far, so I assume they just don't want the spectacle. I don't want or need that either.
>>42558416>So how much effort would I need to put into separating my pony identity from real oneUsually it is enough not to link your real name to your pony stuff.
>>42557044This, if you know what you're looking for. If not, you're in for a hard time.
>>42559208I don't think you should link your real name to ANYTHING you do online, except perhaps some official business.
>>42559906Should be easy enough to find most stories that are binned by searching for the string "pastebin.com" and only searching for reply posts, shouldn't it?
Woah, I can't believe you're still using the banners I made years ago. Seeing them today makes me regret not putting the "mascots" on the foreground like that Pone Paste banner, specially because I lost the .psd file long ago and can't change this anymore.
>>42560501With all the rebrands and overhauls of the OP body, it's good to have one constant element for people to cling to. I wouldn't be opposed to updating the pic; it's already gone through a shuffle or two, so a better-quality remake would be more than welcomed.
>>42560022Agreed. That has been the net etiquette since the beginning.
>>42562918Right up until companies realized they could sell personalized advertising, at least.Modern internet is absolute shit.
>>42563425That's the wonderful thing about these pony sites: they harken back to a time when people were just putting cool stuff up on the net, with no greater agenda than getting a few positive comments.
>>42563802Well only the alternative pony sites mentioned here at least. All the originals have fallen for even worse agenda-pushing than something as simple as personalized advertisements.
>>42563918Hence "these". /pts/ may also have some maresites of interest, but I haven't been keeping up with the threads even when they do deign to show up.
Should this creature be purged from a booru?https://twibooru.org/tags/oc-colon-tatykun
>>42565982Given Grogar and S2E5, no, though the anthro stuff is definitely toeing the line.
Why does Twibooru not delete non-pony pictures that I report? I reported several OC only anthro pictures of characters that are not pony species awhile back and they haven't been deleted. One was an OC zebra (anthrofied) I think, but how is that acceptable, but an anthro OC draconequus is not? Is there some rule for what non-pony species are acceptable and which are not?
>>42566250Reports from about a month ago?
>>42566268Should be enough time for you to take action, should it not?
>>42566351They all passed muster. The zigger's a little weird but still the same muzzle shape as how the artist in question does ponies.Same for the halfbreed abominations.
>>42566355Okay then what's the official rule for when an anthro character is off-topic? Because it doesn't make any sense to me why an original character not drawn in the style of the show should stay, when it's a character that's not one of the predominate species from the show (ponies). Rule 2e talks about "stylistically" resembling a race from the show but that obviously doesn't apply with humanized or anthrofied art, so please explain. Not trying to be contentious, just want to understand so I don't report stuff that's not breaking the rules.
>>42566377One of the images you reported literally did adapt features to the slightly adjusted posture.
>allowing blacked nigger humiliation pornI was wrong, none of you are human
>>42566408I don't believe in free speech you subhuman ratyour logic means that niggers and jews can talk all they wantfuck you, death to your family
>the blackednigger and the antichristiansperg are now fightingNow this may seem harsh, but i hope everyone involved in this story would die.
>>42566414I wish you would die you fucking piece of shit. fuck you.
>>42566412>I don't believe in free speech you subhuman ratBased. Free speech is a meme that gets abused by the upper class trying to force their agenda, just like democracy. It might've worked hundreds of years ago, it doesn't with the technology of today.
>>42566449It never worked. Letting everyone have a say is retarded. Even in a racially pure state it’s dumb. It destroys any kind of real hierarchy, retards belong at the bottom as castrated slave labor.
>>42566250>but an anthro OC draconequus is notAnthro OC \draconequus\ is fine. However, 99% of what furpi and furfags infesting it call "draconequus" aren't. If the parts aren't mismatched like either of the canonical examples, it's a furry and has to go regardless of the degree of anthropomorphization. "Tee hee body long" isn't a pony-related trait. And 99% of them also don't exhibit any character/personality traits of Discord either. I think I only remember exactly one OC that did, and that reminds me to check if rome has the relevant blog saved up because there aren't any images of Scruple on twi.>>42566377>"stylistically" resembling a race from the show but that obviously doesn't apply with humanized or anthrofied artIt can easily apply with anthrofied art. And vanishingly rarely, but with humanized too if the artist actually bothered. You're thinking wrong category of "style".Point in case: here's a "humanized, zebra oc" that I would put "barely pony related" on but not report if it was a solo image: https://twibooru.org/2597501And here's one that can and will get reported because the artist just drew a nog with zero OC resemblance and claims it's related: https://twibooru.org/2375019
>>42566534Letting everyone speak out loud (free speech) is how you identify retards in the first place. Letting everyone have a say in how things are run (democracy) is how society is destroyed.
>>42562716
>>42566689I see, that makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.
Would there be any interest in an /mlp/-focused rangeban workaround service the likes of p.ecker or .gay?
>>42570202Huh? How would you get the 4chan staff to implement it? You do realise that they attempted to block said problem but the furfag easily worked around it to allow said thing.
>>42570202Rather make one for derpi. I'd shitpost there instead of /mlp/.
>>42570228They'd just take more extreme measures to limit anonymous posting on the site. Like limiting "anonymous" posting to accounts that signed up with a phone-confirmed email account like Gmail or Outlook, and treating every post not made by a "valued community member" as suspicious. Might be somewhat interesting, because it'd cause the community to become even more insular and radical than it already is.
>>42570614Exactly. That's the point.

>>42579484...but enough about boxless.
>>42579520Rent free.
Just had an idea, would it be possible to implement automatic tagging with ai? Obviously you'd still have to add/remove tags manually before uploading but it'd make the process quicker.
>>42579610It would be theoretically possible, but it would rely on the assumption that existing tagging (ie: the training data) is trustworthy. Also, it would require a server with a GPU to run in a reasonable amount of time, which isn't exactly cheap. The latter could be done on a best-effort basis on a machine in my basement, I guess.
>>42579649Could it be done on a Coral TPU or similar?
>>42579712I think it very much could be, and would be a pretty ideal use for a device like that. I kind of want to buy one to mess around with.>>42579708Are you volunteering, Nonny?
>>42579708>balls and ass front and centerYou're getting cocky..

Why did Boxless remove a humanized picture of Rarity?
>>42579983>RarityThis is clearly Konata's mom.
>>42579983>https://twibooru.org/mod-log/309136>"Rule #2: Image not MLP related"
>>42579993>>42579995It falls under rule 2c/d. Even if the picture is shit, the rules don't say anything about how closely it has to resemble the show characters there. Then again, with the "probably" and "possibly" qualifier you can always wiggle your way out of any criticism, can't you?

>>42580078Well, shucks! If all it takes to make something pony related is an anonymous uploader claiming it is, I'm gonna start spamming the boorus with anything even remotely resembling muh waifu.I mean, that's basically what https://twibooru.org/tags/moodboard is, anyway.
the funny part about all this is that if the origin tagged it Luna it probably would have stayedbut they didn't so>into the trash it goes
>>42579649>Also, it would require a server with a GPU to run in a reasonable amount of timeNot really. Simple inference for new pics could be done by the CPU. For training, sure you need GPU, but that can be solved via some temporary vms in the could with gpus.
>>42579610Just what boorus needed: MORE inaccurate tags!
>>42580021Recolor her skin eqg style and boxless will be happy to keep it up.
>>42580164I'm not necessarily against the decision. I just think it's kind of strange to focus on something as innocuous as this while leaving tons of "original species" anthro OC-only pictures up.

Getting back to the dreary subject of Unicode, the tagging system should really normalize curly quotes and other oft-misused characters to ASCII.
>>42588100The tagging system should be ascii only. There is absolutely no reason for it to be unicode.
>>42588149As much as that option appeals to me, there would be no way of properly rendering Russo-Japano-Chinese artists' names, unless you wanna try implementing some automatic transliteration.

>>42588203Looked it up and that seems to be true. They even say that using HTTPS is a bad idea because it makes you rely on the fundamentally broken CA trust model. So I guess I stand corrected. Still, Tor is by itself a broken POS, since they work together with Cuckflare (to "prevent site breakage" in their own words), showing they have no real desire to strive for maximum privacy.

>>42592420Floorb forgot to renew the certificate AGAIN.
Floorb why don't you use "cloudflared"? Yes, there is a D at the end. It's a reverse proxy as a daemon, it connects to CF directly then fires the request locally to you actual server. CF takes care of the cert, as the local request will be made via http.
>>42592420I only get security warnings when I try to access the site.
>>42592929Oh yeah, I just saw it wasn't loading and assumed, but you're right. Now there's egg on my face
Is it time to plug pony sites into an Uptime Kuma I already run for my own shit? That one reeees at me 21, 14 and 7 days before the expiration date.And one more time when the certificates do expire. Abandonware cert-manager webhooks for niche DNS hostings are my passion.
>>42592453It's not that I forgot, it's that it auto renews but fails to reload the new certificate. This issue has plagued me for years, and it only happens every 3 months or so so it's just annoying enough to be annoying but not annoying enough to fix.>>42592603Twibooru uses Cloudflare only to provide an additional layer of protection against people spamming DMCA requests directly to my host. I do not wish to use Cloudflare for any other sites, such as PonePaste.Also, it's fixed.
>>42593274>Twibooru uses Cloudflare only to provide an additional layer of protection against people spamming DMCA requests directly to my host.I thought you guys made sure to host it in a country that didn't recognize the DMCA?
>>42593345Spam's still annoying, even if it has no legal basis.
>>42593345>>42593363 is correct
>>42593363>>42593474Fair point.
>>42593274>no cfThen set up an auto cert renew script instead of doing it manually.Also cf does not host anything if you configure it to not to. But even if it does host anything what can a dmca do? At worst you set the nameserver to point back to your original server. But let's assume cf gets a dmca, what prevents the fag to not send the same dmca to your domain host? We have seen this happen (not here, but with some other mayor high traffic sites, there are a few articles about it).
>>42594252>ponies measuring page load times in p10 instead of p99>it's still okay
>>42593474A MITM attack on what I look up on the internet is even more annoying. Are you just afraid your host is going to get w(e)ary of you and stop supporting your site or something? Because I see no point to it otherwise. Just redirect any DMCAs automatically to the trash bin and be done with it.

>>42598883And did he give any reasons for that decision?
>>42598896All reasoning on the matter has already been said to death at this point, up to and including from him directly to you in this very thread.I will only reiterate what can be derived from that one more time if you will actually listen to it.
>>42598883>>42598899Prove where twifag said anything about this. You can't.
>>42599141I can, actually.
>>42599638Is that discord?
>>42598273What bad decisions has Derpi really even made recently?I’m all for having alternatives, and I’m not saying Derpi is perfect, but it’s the only one that just werks for the majority of people. Images usually get uploaded there first and it’s got the most active community so scores, comments, and tags tend to be way more reflective of posts quality and contents.I can get all the filly rape I want on Derpi, so what banned content or bad decisions am I supposed to be upset over? AI? Muh lolis? I'm an enjoyer of both, but I agree it doesn’t really belong on the "main" booru which is why having alternatives is good.So I'm genuinely curious why (You) and others actively don't want people using Derpi. I’ve never understood the hatred.
>>42599692Their relatively recent decision on AI was a fucking joke and doesn't really make all that much sense and their moderation team is extremely biased; if you say anything they disagree with (even if it's not offensive) as a comment on an image or on their forum it will be erased, and how they turn comments off on some images really pisses me off.It's a fantastic site ran by hypocritical retards.
>>42599692They removed a good chunk of Mare Fair images for Rule 3 violations. Compare the count on altboorus vs derpi. On the other hand, they've been very good about removing bait on the ones that remain. Credit where it's due.

This is YOUR logic being used against you. The scolipedes belong far less than the humanized ponies, yet it's the latter that get deleted. You can also point out where twibooru requires images to only be of canon characters and OCs aren't allowed. You won't, because you can't. At no point was Twibooru, nor any other alt-booru created or stated to be for canon content only with restrictions on ocs that don't exist for canon characters.

>>42599660Are you genuinely surprised?
>>42601700Yes, I'm surprised how fast I forgot about that. >>42288400
>>42601564Amazing how no part of that says "humanized ocs are NOT PONY RELATED ALSO YOU'RE A PEDO RAPIST IF YOU DEFEND THEM" nor "pokemon with similar colors and no trace of the supposed pony's personality are pony related". You disprove your claims with the rules. Astounding work.
>>42601733See >>42601697It's become clear that Twibooru is just like Derpi but just with a different slant. That's fine, but then don't advertise it as a pony archive that will use fair interpretation of the rules to choose what is allowed to stay or not, because that's evidently not what's happening.I don't even care about the humanized OCs (in fact, I'd delete a TON more if it were up to me), I'm just annoyed by the hypocrisy.
>>42601740>a different slantI'm only Asian by technicality.
>>42601733And yet you clipped out the first two qualifiers that are required for the context of the ones that follow. Interesting!

If that pokemon had three green apples and nothing else, he'd be defending it for being Applejack, but it just has the wrong traits for his autism.
Twibooru is experiencing some kind of host issue, leading to extremely slow image loading times. I'll investigate it in the morning if it persists.

>>42604477Really hard to say. But judging from the general 'content' of these posts, I wouldn't be surprised if the staff was nuking some bots.
>>42604477If you mean on /mlp/, there's been some guy who basically admitted he's been sockpuppeting in many threads to keep them bumped with meaningless drivel in some misguided attempt to "prove" that 4chan is "now dead" (by disrupting it).He stands out easily because the reply trail is just meaningless garbage.

>>42603962>boxless's shitty moderation gets called out>site goes downhmmm
>>42604972They'll probably meme that it's us DDoSing them in anger.
>>42604975derpi's been getting hit with people abusing the api too, so not hard to imagine its a similar thing here
>>42582243Is that Bluey and Bingo lmao
>>42605068Yes, my little doglover.P.S: Twi lives!
>>42604931>>42605178So, what happened?
>>42605187It died again -c-
>>42605213Works for me right now.
>>42605236Update, it broke :/
>>42605236Same here.
>>42604931>it won't come back upSomebody needs to press the physical reset button!
>>42605349It's up. It's just giving 5XX errors again.
>>42605187Yeah I have no idea what the fuck is up with this shit. Nothing changed. It's suddenly fucked up. No errors anywhere.
>>42605466Maybe the server ran out of space again?
>>42605466Maybe a hardware problem. Have you tried contacting the host?
I'm using derpybooru. It just works.
>>42605491Yeah, sure. It "works".
>>42605491I'd rather stick to a broken site that doesn't care about dnp bullshit
>>42605466I suspect it's a network routing issue I have no control over, and I've implemented a workaround...
>>42605508>a network routing issuePlease explain to a layman what that means.
>>42605581Server 1 wants to talk to Server 2. All Server 1 can do is tell the company hosting it "take my message and get it to Server 2" - it can't control how it gets there. Instead of putting the message on a ferrari going down the highway, the company hosting Server 1 decides to put it on a horse drawn carriage going down a dirt backroad. The result is the message gets there too slow to be useful.This is usually done by accident, or due to issues like certain routes being down (roads being closed.)
>>42605508will the derpi importer import the missed images in the past hours?eg 3682130
>>42605600Thanks, I never knew hosting providers can change the routing they use to talk to other servers (which I assume is Cloudflare in your case). I know every packet on the internet travels to its destination through hops, but how and why some servers accept the packages and decide to forward them or not still eludes me.
>>42605491>It just works.Todd, please.
Bump.
best booru to goon my brain to mush on?

>>42608210>t.
>>42606981nta but I hate szurubooru so much
>>42608914Why tho
>>42608933It's just too minimal. It feels like its meant to be a locally hosted booru for personal collections instead of being designed for public use
>>42606981>>42608951Underdeveloped bodies, underdeveloped software. Makes sense to me.
