Can the mods please do something about the bots on here?Half of the threads on the first two pages are botted, either chartslop with no text in the body or a youtube link with a picture of the same filename format, please do something about this shit
>>131801608The mods have given up on this board a long time ago.
>>131801608What's the point of those bots anyway? Who benefits?
what the fuck are you even fucking talking about bitch
>>131801740>t. jeet botfarmer
>>131801608>implying /mu/ has mods
>>131801740scroll through the first page, do you see threads with the same link spam bumping the thread with the same filename format? That

>>131801608i actually don't think at least one of the "bots" is a bot, i think he's just a complete retard autist that bumps threads for weeks for no reason
>>131801749you don't fucking talk to me like that
filename filter, no more charts/[0-9A-F]{8}-[0-9A-F]{4}-[0-9A-F]{4}-[0-9A-F]{4}-[0-9A-F]{12}/i;boards:mu
>>131801608>people posting music are the problem>and not the constant kpop threads that have nothing to do with music and is just full of celebrity gossipGo back to Korea, fag
>>131803374what about the dozens of geordie greep threads all day? face it, the entire board is celebrity gossip. some unimportant artist saying something political on twitter will get a thousand times more posts and replies than some anon recommending a good song or album. your music discussion doesn't exist and hasn't for years.
>>131801865>scroll through the first pageI just use the 'log
Timmy show respect to india plesase
>>131801868mods confirmed for dealing with shitposts that break the rules
>>131801881there is no way that the bot who is bumping the threads on the front page right now is not a bot, no way

>>131750247 this one too
>>131734291 and this thread
>>131806309>>131806297look i fully agree with you here, but you just gotta let it go. the board hasn't been good for years. save your breath and go do something actually important for your future life.or i dunno, go make music. anything to not worry about a fucking imageboard.there's been bots here for at least a year. you think they only post links? how many retarded arguments have you seen or been a part of?think a bit, go outside, have fun, meet people
>>131806321
>>131803435I come here to gossip. I only listen to what I liked in high school and I'm fine with that.
>>131806437The board is dead. That's why they ha e the bots here. Not enough people post. Which is why it's retarded to try and do anything cause all it's gonna do is show you how dead this place really is.And the mods are all pop star parasocial loser creeps.There is nothing left to saveAll the generals are stupid as well. Just look at the archive from a decade ago and now
>>131801608The board is dead, remove the bots and activity falls by 50%
>>131806442You dont need to be here.Gossiping is for people with no brains.There is a true lack of appreciation for art here and that's one of the reasons the board is dead
>>131806584This
>>131806584You type like a fag ngl
>>131806297i noticed it in this thread >>131794151it's just spamming youtube links with no relation to the thread subject this whole site is cooked
>>131806785you gossip so who's the faggot now
>>131762742Add this one to the list.
I only care about the K- Pop threads. I'm not going to do anything about this. Don't know why you people can't take a hint already.
>>131807044that's ok, i'll go to the irc on monday and link to this post, we'll see if you're still a janitor on tuesday since you don't feel like it's your job to enforce the rules
>>131806571This. Dead site, time for everyone to move on
/lit/ is faster now, which is crazy kek
>>131807265jannies do it for free, fuck your sycophantic irc lmao
>>131801608Nothing will change so long as botfarms continue to purchase 4chan passes.
>>131807476Again, what is the point of bot spam here?
>>131808173your dismissive tone suggests you think there's no bot activity on 4chan.are you sure about that?
>>131808173to make the boards look like they have activity when they don't. 4chan tries to sell advertising, it's a lot harder to sell ads to someone when they can open the catalog and see a board is completely dead. the 4chan moderation team are the ones doing it would be my guess. on /mu/ if you took out the botted kpop threads the board would be about as slow as /po/from the look of things this site is probably going to go out of business soon because they're having to resort to this strategy to keep it barely afloat
>>131801868If I recall correctly from the janny leaks (Jannygate), /mu/ literally does not have mods. Global mods respond to reports when buttmad jews tell on you for teasing them
>>131807374other than the standard polbaiting present on nearly every board on this site, and the religious discussion that also plagues /his/ and /x/ since there is no religion board, they manage to stay mostly on topic. neither literature nor music are great topics for an imageboard like this though.
>>131808345>from the look of things this site is probably going to go out of business soon because they're having to resort to this strategy to keep it barely afloatYour poorly hidden glee at this scenario is very telling.
>>131808349correct, /mu/ does not have a dedicated mod. we've got an esl streetshitter janny who lives in canada that only cares about the kpop threads, see >>131807044don't believe it? take a look at what posts it spends it's time deleting:https://desuarchive.org/mu/search/deleted/deleted/
>>131808359i'm not responsible for running this site into the ground, but yes it would be better gone or sold off for pennies to an owner who might maintain it rather than the state it's currently in
>>131808345I guess that makes senseIt's insane that the MUSIC board is this slow, I would have expected it to be at least as fast as /co/
4chan is a retirement home for the lame unfunny faggots who never made OC and never posted anything worth reading. All the talent and funny anons left years ago because talented and funny people don't spend their entire lives posting on an anime imageboard. The influx of new funny and talented posters dried up and now we squat in the ruins and endlessly conjure scenarios for why shit sucks now.
>>131808458I used to make OC and effortpost, but it hasn't been worth it for the past ten years
>>131808432why? nothing happens in music. that's why the only things that are active are gossip/gooner/current events topics that are only barely music related. especially since the user base has done a 180 on contrarianism so that the only acceptable topics are the rolling stone top 20 bands of all time, there's precious little to discuss that won't quickly devolve into celebshitting.
>>131808432>the MUSIC board is this slow>I would have expected it to be at least as fast as /co/it would be if it was moderated. anybody interested in discussing music opens /mu/, sees 10 /kgook/ spam threads, 10 waifu goon threads, some more celebrity gossip spam, some political rage bait threads, and immediately nopes the fuck out because there's nearly zero threads where music is the focus this should be one of the most active boards on the entire site but it's not
>>131808496>nothing happens in music.I'd beg to differ, there are interesting releases all the time but mentioning them will get you labelled as a shillHell, I'm a member of the Steve Hoffman Music Forum and it's thriving despite them only talking about boomer musicI agree with >>131808504, better moderation could help restore the board's reputation
>>131801608you are experiencing the precursor to 'get the fuck off the internet now' which has been going on for quite some time nowyou can't do anything on the internet and you should learn to avoid it and live an existence predating it least late 90's, propaganda, pr, bots and now scary linear algebra is poisoning all interactions online
>>131806297>>131806309>>131806316>>131806950>>131807021What's the point? Is it someone trying to game the algorithm and get things trending in people's recommendation by linking them different places? If it was a troll they'd probably do something more inflammatory or offensive to get reactions.
>>131808776No, it's just technically "on topic" bot spam, see >>131808345. Mods are stealth botting the board, the last time this happened 4chan was being looked at by a potential buyer. It's literally criminal fraud if that's what's happening again.
>>131808537then you should unironically stay there. the rot that infests this site is something a simple change in moderation won't fix.
>>131808840Oh, yeah? Let's try it and see.
>>131808926im nta but it's clear there's nothing left to save
>>131806473No it's the opposite. No one posts here BECAUSE of the bots. This board has gone steadily downhill the past decade, noticeably so in the past 5 years.I would love to post on /mu/ but every time I come here and make a thread I get reminded very fast of why I stopped posting on this board so much these days. Maybe I'm wrong and that's just my personal experience but I highly doubt that bots are here because nobody posts. That genuinely makes no sense
>>131808537>I'd beg to differ, there are interesting releases all the time but mentioning them will get you labelled as a shillyep. This has happened to me many times to the point where I just hardly post here anymore. Also I've had threads deleted for "shilling". Like okay so we aren't allowed to share music unless it's popular enough to be reviewed by Pitchfork or Fagtano? Genuinely so fucking retarded
>>131809023I have no doubt that you were in fact shilling.
>>131809095Well yeah I was shilling but I wasn't shilling my own stuff. I don't even make music. Basically my point is that if something doesn't have a bunch of money behind it to get marketed to the point where everyone knows about it prior to someone making a thread here then it's essentially "shilling". There is nothing inherently wrong with shilling when you actually think about it. The only area where it starts to become an issue is when it gets spammed, like Bengalfaul. But mods wont do shit about that for whatever reason
>>131806297These are not nearly as bad as the pepe threads we get. half the time its just spamming lyrics>>131807274>>131807324>>131804868>>131803518
I hate shills and shilling so much that if someone makes a thread about a band or song I haven't heard it just assures that I will go out of my way to never listen to it.
>>131809178That's just a long winded way of saying you don't like music
>>131809187Seethe impotently shill-kun.
>>131809208Explain how I'm wrong. Even if someone with that mindset "likes" music, in the sense that they listen to stuff, they certainly don't like music enough to be posting on the music board. Like make it make sense. You don't *want* to listen to something you haven't heard before???
>>131809221theres people far more miserable on this planet than you give them credit for >>131809208
this thread is proof
>>131809178do you apply this logic to /tv/ and /v/ too? You refuse to play any new games that people post about? Or watch any new movies anyone makes a thread about?
>>131809178Its just people shilling anyway. Geese got outted for trying to force popularity by posting themselves here. Thats why I also don't click on any band that I don't already know
>>131809308dont try to reason with moronic imbeciles
>>131809023You’ll get accused of shilling either way. Post about a band as big as Geese? You’ll get accused of being part of their algo manipulation marketing. Post about some obscure band with little to no following? They’ll assume you’re shilling your own work.The irony is that the board is so dead, I don’t even think it’s worth the time for labels or artists to promote here anymore, big or small. Music discussion on /mu/ has become literally impossible, so it’s no surprise the board is dying
>>131809153for better or worse afaik those have been board culture for a long time, along with equally retarded shit like 'name our band', 'holy shit', 'it clicked', 'band member's gf wants us to change our name to ____', etc. this is why i can never take the complaining about the kpop threads seriously. the rest of the board isn't much better. many of those threads get zero replies and they're tolerated why? because one was funny once? same with the cuckgau threads, that poster might as well be/might actually be a bot too.
>>131809178Literally pathological lmao. You’re a big part of the reason board culture is so shit. /mu/ used to be an amazing place for the sharethreads alone, I discovered so much music that I wouldn’t find anywhere else, just the most obscure rips imaginable with ridiculous genre tags.
I HATE THE ANTICHRIST
>>131809178is it cause you're a failure in life and will never achieve anything?
>>131809153>Complaining about bonjovipostingGet the fuck out newfag
>>131809401>muh board cultureThis argument always comes from a newfag election tourist who showed up sometime around 2015 or afterward.Pepe/Wojak spam didn't really ramp up until around that time period, so you're just used to it being that way. Yeah, there were pepe/wojak images before that, but the idea that it's board culture for every thread to only have variations of two meme characters is fucking asinine. You're a cancer-ridden newfag and you always will be.
>>131809543post chart, oldfag
>>131809564i don't need to placate newfag election tourists.
>>131809543>2015 or onwardthat's over 10 years ago. i got news for you, it's board culture. that's half this website's lifespan you fucking retard
>>131809599>it's board culture>kills the board
>>131809599You will never be a part of this place. You will always be a cancerous invader.
>>131809611
>>131809615bro nta but get over yourself lmao. This entire thread is about how shit /mu/ is and most everyone agrees it's a complete dump and you're trying to gatekeep it? What are you even defending exactly? There's nothing here that's worth gatekeeping
>>131809615i have been here since i found this site through encyclopedia dramatica in like 2008. you calling everyone who doesn't agree with you a tourist or invader is just as much cancer as what you think you're arguing against.
>>131809643>it was always bad! forget the fact that it's only ever been bad in the 3 years i've been here!
>>131809308>You refuse to play any new games?>Or watch any new movies?Unironically, yes. Imagine consooming any modern goyslop. It's been nothing but garbage for the last 20+ years.
>>131809657I never said that
uh oh election tourist meltys
>>131809660lol. Alright lil bro
>>131809664It's so insane that newfags will ruin an entire forum for over a decade and then blame it on oldfags.
>>131809543based & redpilled chemotherapy post

>>131809675Prove me wrong. I'll wait.
>>131809700There's no point because literally anything I post you'll just say it's garbage regardless of its quality.
Why do they just refuse to go back? Why do they take such great joy out of ruining boards?
>>131809696newfags vs oldfags isn't the generational war you're trying to turn it into, newfag.

>>131809660Post a few of your favorite movies and video games? I'd like to know around when / what things were actually good. Some of your favorite music would be appreciated, too.
>>131809401>its board culture to make dogshit spam threads broAnd you guys wonder why /mu/ is dead
>>131806297None of these threads except the RATM politics thread are that bad
the /mu/ janny does it for free on an dead gay board that no mod cares about and no site drama starts here on his watch. THat's a unicorn and they ain't getting rid of him because you don't like kpop and waifu threads. that's doa
>>131809919the /mu/ janny doesn't give a fuck unless there are less than 8 kpop threads up all at once. as soon as it hits 7, he has to delete threads.
I don't blame the kpop posters, where else are they supposed to post. We have like 8 video game boards and boards for niche hobbies like origami yet no board for kpop culture which would probably be a lot faster than the japanese culture board we have
>>131810063Well at the very least they could all post in the same general. But yes I agree Kpop/Korean culture should be a board
>>131810063>where else are they supposed to postinstagram and twitter, along with every other normalfag
/mu/ would immediately be fixed if posting pictures of women was an instant ban.
>>131810063>where else are they supposed to postin >>>/trash/ where it belongs

>>131810158I too am homosexual.
>>131810217you should've posted a frog or a wojak for your spam thread
>>131801608The guy bumping the chart threads IS a janny. He deleted posts that talked about the necrobumping before.
The only reason to ever do it for free is to protect your pet threads and bully spergs that annoy you.t. former janny

>>131806321This.
>>131810369It's already well-known that jannies are vindictive bullies who only moderate to gangstalk victims and protect their favorite threads.
>Someone is manually triggering the bot to spam threadsIt’s the emilyfag.>A janny or mod is behind it. It’s possible their bosses don’t know about it. The bot fakes engagement which is in the best interest of corrupt jannies, if the mods found out they were deliberately driving away users they would lose their privileges, by keeping some dummy threads going, it makes it look like they are doing their easy jobs. They also use it on their pet threads to create the illusion of more users, notice that every wpop, metal and Emily Armstrong general uses the same images and posts when the thread is new, every time.
