What explains this phenomenon? Are some movie releases just that influential?
>that consistent downward trendfucking grim. honestly i'm not even sure why i come here to be honest. habit i guess?
>>219860286/tv/ is still a big board. /fit/ in comparison has collapsed
>>219860246Yeah the phenomenon of Fishtank.
>he doesn't know
>>219860312e-celeb threads should be on /b/ or /trash/.
twitter is less censored than this discord troon shithole
>>219860340twitter is a shit service, i forgot my username and now can't access my account because i don't have the e-mail for my registration anymore. what kind of fucking retardation is that?
>>219860340especially /tv/, it's likely the worst moderated board of the whole fucking website
>>219860246Thirdies
>>219860365blizzard can't find my world of warcraft account even though i provided the email, full name, all the characters. They need my product key from 2005
>>219860548Not even close, go look at /mu/'s rotting corpse.
>>219860340basically all the big social media sites have less strict moderation than 4chan, and have since at least 2015.
>>219860548Try going to /a/ or /vt/ some time if you want to see awful moderation.
>>219860567/mu/ died because redditors there shortcircuited when they tried to decide if they should give blowjob to every 50IQ mumble rapper or have a meltie about hecking N-Worderino.The so called 'Fantano Syndrome'.
>>219860286Addiction to a social crutch/bing bang yahooo
>>219860246excluding fishtank we've gone from 50k posts per day just 3 years ago to 15k. where the fuck did everyone go? reddit? twitter? do they just no longer care about television and film?
>>219860286A combination of captcha being an unwieldy pain in the ass, an influx of noisy third-worlds/reddit tourists/chink demoralization bots, a moderation going full Reddit and seemingly enforcing based solely upon personal whims has made this place borderline unusable.I really only get on here now to keep myself entertained during lulls at work.
>>219862174>Wait 1 minute to just get the captcha>OR register an account =^)>The captcha is a four part iq test>wait 10 minutes before making next postGe wheeze I dont think we are ever going to find out why posting went down. I am personally more surprised that anyone bothers at all.
>>219860309Cause /fit/ was exposed as a US govt. psyop to have more healthy people to draft.
>>219862174less bots, thank god
>>219862389The bots are still around.
>>219862174I really don't know.I thought the you're here forever meme was true but apparently a lot of anons have escaped this place.though maybe they just died.
>>219860286I've been asking myself the same thing. I think it's because I have literally nowhere else to go. Reddit? I'd sooner chop my balls off then talk to those faggots. Twitter? I had a Twitter once, I became suicidally depressed from having to witness so many fucking retards that I share my country and this planet with. Discord? Worse than Reddit trannies. I'm a man without a party, no group of people to call my own. Literally any hobby of mine, I look into the community and find it flooded with trannies and commies. This isn't a rant this is a cry for help.
Some boards benefit from high traffic, others do not. For the most part the election tourists have left and the rest are contained in /pol/, and that's a good thing.
>>219862427I’m pretty sure the US is undergoing some massive demographic collapse. Young people seem to be getting tons of rare cancers or dying of overdoses at an alarming rate. And then there’s the simple fact that women are no longer having kids or are waiting until they are fucking 37 to do so.
>>219862389retard
>>219860548/k/ has got to be some sort of state department op
>>219860286Still better than any other shithole on the interwebs
>>219860246That's the increased shill spam. It shows that more than half of all posts around major releases are spam.
>>219860309Only so many times you can talk about the same things over and over before it gets old. Once you get fit, there’s no point in going there. Eating and exercising well are set in stone principles for the most part. /fit/ has been /r9k/ 2.0 for years now anyway
>>219860246you could drop a bomb on every data center on the planet and civilization would improve
>>219860286Every other site is decaying just as fast as this one, so while it just keeps getting more and more unusable, so is everywhere else.
>>219860309>You're here forev-ACK
>>219862427>>219862174Twitter
>>219862174i post more on autoadmit nowadays

>>219862174
>>219863860twitter isn't even a site where discussion is possible.
>>219864063twitter is a huge website if you only find troons and freaks there that's your problem
Outside of /v/, /sp/ and /a/ there aren't any active board left here.
>>219863860Brown
>>219864082Not really
>>219864081/a/ is dead outside of big manga endings or major chapters. SnK meltdown was the last true event
>>219860246paid shilling
>>219861909>kslop niggers spam the entire board while being protected by the jannies>uh you see, it's because of reddit or something
I don’t think 4chan fading back into obscurity is a bad thing. I remember the comfy days of waiting 12hrs just to get a reply to your posts, so I'm happy we’re finally going back to those cozy times.
>>219860309GLP1s killed /fit/
I think that a lot of election tourists left for twittter after Elon bought it because they were only ever interested in the politics of this site and now that they can just post on Twitter they went there.
>>219864081Both /sp/ and /a/ are very slow now. Some match threads on spee barely reach bump limit and most posts are /int/ off-topic shit
>>219860309I used /fit/ a lot in the mid-2010's for actual fitness advice but after 2020 I only used it for /afg/ and once those threads died I literally never go there any more.
>>219864205Still waiting for the "GLP1 increases the risk of cancer".
>>219862489>americans make the internet >browns swarm the internet>americans avoid browns>brown: it is to be the Americans are the dying
>>219862174The election tourists drove off most of the older userbase from 2015 onwards, then the election tourists themselves got bored and went to go shit up twatter after Elon bought it.Ironically, age verification may end up decimating traffic on major social media websites, as it will immediately hamstring data centers, bot farms, and autistic third worlders, all of which are used to prop up their user metrics.More of the west needs to do like Japan does and just block foreign IPs period.
>>219862489So if we force women to have children before they’re 37, we’re going to see a resurgence of activity on /tv/?
>>219864316>The election tourists drove off most of the older userbase from 2015 onwardsNo it didn't lol. the site started "dying" after the hack. Also remember a few months ago when you covid tourists confirmed you weren't even around back then when the whole "UH EPSTEIN MADE /pol/!!" stuff
The covid 2020 era was so fucking comfyEveryone staying inside while traffic here was peaking. Would talk about movies/shows to binge while we stayed home and then went to /pol/ to browse videos of the floyd riots
>>219864417Now you don't even have to leave /tv/ to see constant /pol/shit.
>>219864378Also as you can see the 2015 election(which you weren't part of for this board anyways lol) had little to no effect on this board. Trash like Joker and the lockdowns brought in more people
>>219864378>the site started "dying" after the hack.No, traffic has been steadily decreasing across the board since 2022. It's evident on every single board on the site, because it turns out that a lot of the people who started posting here in the last decade were only here because they thought it was some epic replacement for reddit where they can say nigger.
>>219860246Why would anyone come here, when 90s of the content its the same threads spammed day in and day out?
>>219864442Insane how fucking hyped up this board was for that Joker movie. I think there were more threads than Endgame
>keep telling everyone to go back>everyone actually leaves (mostly to twitter)>complain there’s barely any sitewide activitydo you fags really expect me to pass an IQ test captcha every time I post here just to get a meaningless reply from some mentally ill guy, when I could get a more or less reasonable response elsewhere?
>>219864484We could've stayed in the /bunker/, but fags wanted their traffic.
>>219862427A long time ago I believed the 'posts on the internet' are forever superstition.There's a proud part of my history that I documented on /co/ that at best only exists in a word doc save and a few screenshots on an old harddrive of mine. Photos that used to exist of me as an early 20s guy on google images are gone. It's a little melancholy. But it's also good to not be stuck reliving 'glory days'. I've got a wife and kids now. Meanwhile, half the niggers here can't spell.
Election tourists all left for twitter, good riddance
That would be DunkEgg/the PittNow /tv/ goes back to slumber
>>219864452there's no traffic
>>219862174Reddit.People talk shit about it but you just have to find the right subreddits. I've been banned more times on /tv/ than I ever have any other board or Reddit.
>>219860340Extremely untrue, people have left this site en masse because there's absolutely zero functioning filter against extremely committed schizos and brain damaged seethoids, not to mention bots of one variety or anotherThe stronger moderation on every other site in the late 2010s pushed all the worst retards here to turn it into their sewer. The decline has continued because the site is archaic and broken.I haven't noticed bad moderation on here in years. In fact it's been a while since I noticed any moderation at all
God bless leto and his proxysite
>>219864484kek
>>219860286The sharty would have replaced 4cuck by now if the mods there weren't even bigger power cucking schizos
>>219860246The same thing that happened to /a/ - streaming destroyed the community interaction.
>>219862489>Young people seem to be getting tons of rare cancers That’s what you get when you pollute the environment so much that just living in an area exposes you with so much toxic shit that you get rare cancers at age 30 or younger >or dying of overdoses at an alarming rate.Turns out “just say no” doesn’t work.
>>219864378I've been on this site since 2010, started off as a /mu/tantThe election tourists who turned every board into /pol/ make this place unbearable. 70% of every board is complaints about jeets, troons, or leftists. I get it, but does this need to be brought up every minute? Can't we actually discuss television and film? Only reason I stick around is the occasional comfy 3s Company thread
>>219860338it's already on /bant/, but sam needs many gorilla nests
>>219864452It's kind of funny how you can see an almost immediate drop in post activity on /tv/ and /pol/ right after Elon bought twitter in October 2022.>>219864663>people have left this site en masse because there's absolutely zero functioning filter against extremely committed schizos and brain damaged seethoidsThis too, the amount of schizos on certain boards makes them completely fucking unusable./co/ in particular has been an absolute unusable wasteland since at least 2019, which is why you see /co/fags coming here desperately trying to make cartoon threads so they can find somewhere on 4chan away from the schizos on their board to talk about cartoons.Too many mega-autists are allowed to run rampant, which just drives away the non-schizos.
>>219864663>extremely committed schizos and brain damaged seethoids, not to mention botsSo people have left to... what safe haven exactly?
>>219864703Are the election tourists you're talking about the ones from 2008?
>>219862427people have busier lifes, maybe they still come but post less.
>>219864081v tv int and pol are the only active
>>219864072exactly how do you discuss things on twitter?it's a site where every post is an attention seeking cry for likes by design.even reddit is better for discussion.
What's more frightening is Gen A only communicates in aglospeak now. In a few years we'll see more and more threads with F*ck and unalive
>>219864204Fuck off, we've had a lot of 'alt chans' for decades that, at least I, only remember during 4chan outages. Back in the day I would just main /b/ for the post speed. The comfiest days were the ones back when you could see anything and often there would be something electric and the thread would just hit limit and die so fast that you wouldn't get hung up on it.The Tom Green Livestream show raids or the various real girls ruining their lives for some momentary attention etc>>219864739>He's using his mind powers to make the Asian use chopsticksKek.I know I should move on fully from this place. It's just noise, distraction. It's barely any different from porn.
I remember not being able to discuss SHIT on /v/ due to dubs. Not a single vidya related thread. Good times. It got boring after a while and I remember leaving 4chan for a couple of years. I cannot remember exactly when mootiekun started taking official precautions against it, nor if it coincided with the flood of election tourists.
>>219864643Try behaving here like you do on Reddit.
>>219864781We already see younger zoomers engaging in algospeak by posting shit like "PDF."I kind of thank god that 4chan is falling out of favor, I'd rather the site die than have it become infested with retarded gen alpha mongoloids who basically aren't even functional humans.
>>219860340This is true
>>219860246Zoomies and third worlders getting online really made internet forums in general unbearable to all but the most thickest skinned.
4chan is probably too complex for kids nowadays to browse and post. Phonefaggotry might have ironically saved this website
>>219863758>-erThey stopped trying and go back to /tv/ to be fatasses. You are in 4chan forever.
>>219864781The whole concept of naming every generation is newspeak as hell... yeah, I grew up during the time when iphones weren't quite as advanced, my generation needs a title!
>>219860548Lying pajeet.
>>219864781>>219864814Already saw some threads where the profanity was censored.Honestly this entire site should be put down if that becomes the norm
>>219864713Older users, probably Twitter Younger users, reels and discordPlaces you can build hugboxes with the algorithm
Despite so many people leaving, /tv/ is still a shit board. Maybe once a month you get quality discussions or a funny meme
>>219862174Can you not read a chart? It was averaging like 35k in 2022 without Fishtank, not 50k. And now it's around 22k without Fishtank. That 10k is literally all bots. Retard.
>>219864785Well, there won’t be any more days like that, so just get used to a less active website. The mod team isn’t doing anything to stop it either, apart from stacking more layers of captcha. I’m not even sure they’re capable of much beyond that, considering most of them are probably in their forties and probably tired of the place.If you want somewhere to shitpost, you can use sharty. If you’ve got something to publish, there’s Twitter. You can even make some money there if you’re smart or interesting enough. What is 4chan even for at this point?
>>219860309tfw to smart for /fit/
I post a LOT less since the captcha became insufferable. Who can be arsed going through all that
so do people want more moderation or less? not certain types of moderation, just more or less period
>>219862174I don't post on /tv/ a lot, but at least on /v/ the jannies are way too trigger happy with banning. If you bad mouth a company they like, you might get banned. If you post something that is totally on-topic but they dislike? Banned.Meanwhile the entire /v/ catalog is filled with off-topic crap and there's zero consistency what is allowed and not.
>>219864998The current captchas are easier than the old ones, Poojesh.
>>219865004I want consistent moderation
>>219865032surely you will pay for such a premium? or volunteer your own services?
>>219865014You get an instant 3day if you say anything negative about South East Asia or the monkeys who inhabit the region on any of the Japan boards.
>>219860246Where can I find this data, OP?
>>219864262>this moron thinks amerisharts are whitelol
>>219865014>the jannies are way too trigger happy with banning. If you bad mouth a company they like, you might get banned. If you post something that is totally on-topic but they dislike? Banned.We have that here as well, but it's only one janny
>>219864739>He's using his mind powers to make the Asian use chopsticks>Little did he know about Asian mind shields!I miss these posters.
>>219865004a less scrict and more younger moderation, not this absent politburo from the moot days
>>219865066https://4stats.io/
>>219865019But why should I have to do it at all when the competitors to 4chan don't have that barrier.
The site has been dead for years, all those 'posts' were either bots or paid jewish shills. Since introduced the new captcha botting has been reduced and the jews have been outed so they shill less. 4chan has been a corpse since like 2012.
>>219865097>and more younger moderationOh fuck no, that's the last thing we need.Every zoomer mod is a fucking retard who's even more of a powertripper than the millennials were.
>>219862174they cracked down on off-topic threads
>>219860286>habit i guessYup. 4chan went to shit a long time ago but there's just no better alternative. The constant twitter screenshot threads are annoying but once we even allowed reddit screencap threads it was officially over.
>>219865108thanks
>>219865135lollmaokek, even.Just look at the catalog at any given time of day. It's full of /pol/ bait threads.
>>219860548That's why it's pure kino!
>>219865128well the site was founded by a 15 year old and its prime was when he was in his early twenties, so I don’t really see a problem with that
but where is there to go after this? I like anonymous hobby discussions and don't want any corporation feeding me algoslop or a curated feed or whatever
>>219865204xoxohth is active and quite fun these days
>>219865189A 15 year old born in the 80s is vastly different from a 15 year old born in the 2000s.If you want to be moderated by retarded zoomers, Discord is right there.
>>219862489Suicide too
Dead internet Theory was right all along
>>219863758Kek
>>219865174what part of off-topic do you not understand?
>>219864081/pol/ and /int/ are pretty active
>>219864781Diddy unc gooner
>>219865255That's one of the reddit tourists who come here for epic meme screencapsoff-topic threads are fine as long as they're not "/pol/"
>>219865223a quick lookover of the front page shows nothing but politics, AI, and porn, the exact shit that makes this site and the modern internet in general unusable
>>219865204>don't want any corporation feeding me algoslop or a curated feed or whateverUnfortunately that's what the Internet is now. Even internet memes are just corporate slop to sell products like Chicken Jockey. This is the biggest downside of everything getting more centralized over the past decade
>>219860246A /porn/ general would save /tv/.
Why has no one brought up the fact modern tv and film is fucking awful? I dont watch any of this shit so I post less.
>>219865266>/int/nothing but generals and racebaiting.probably the worst blue board on the site these days.
>>219865373This brown /v/eddit tourist excuse doesn't work here much like it doesn't work on /mu/
>>219865400>excuseI unironically dont watch 80% of what is discussed here now.
>>219865373This is also kind of part of it.Very few new TV and films that I feel like discussing with /tv/, and the stuff I do watch isn't stuff that's discussed much by /tv/.
>>219865223No self respecting attorney would use it after 08.
The only thing that would save 4chan is removing the captcha and locking posting behind the pass. It would create a financial incentive to improve the site and could raise posting quality, plus it might reduce the burden on mods by cutting down on spam.
This site just depresses the hell out of me. I simply can't understand what joy people derive from shitposting. Every day it's the same threads with the same responses. Even when I see a thread for a movie I love I don't even feel like replying when there is no starting point for discussion. "Was it kino?", "What was his problem?, "What did I think of it?" You really are better off reading books or joining a real film club.
>>219865424The last thing I got hyped for was the Halo TV series and they fucking butchered it
>>219865432mind giving me your account then?
>>219861844/a/ snuffs you out the moment you post a non anime pic though
>>219865305I think part of the problem is that a lot of the election tourist types who talk about how modern 4chan sucks largely due to their inclusion are the types who WANT AIslop and politics everywhere.They're the ones who spend most of their day on twatter and tiktok and spamming random shit they see there on this site. We may see a bit less of it since a lot of those guys are genuinely just retarded third worlders who spammed here for engagement on their twatter posts, and now that Elon is being slightly less retarded and demonetized reposts of other people's content and is lowering/disabling engagement payouts, those third world retards will no longer be able to make the equivalent of a mid-level job in their shithole country by spamming worthless bullshit noise on twatter.It's also why there have been noticeably fewer twatter posts in OP posts recently.
>>219860309This! /tv/ will always remain big, either through film or off topic shitposting
Trvthnvke: 4chan is just not interesting.Ancient UI aside (I legit witnessed some people get lost here and get confused without being able to find the reply and where's the post they made) and lack of addictive shit like infinite scroll in a traditional sense, there's literally just nothing new or original, most threads are just bait shitposts with a reddit/xitter screencap, all the new and popular things get discussed elsewhere while 4chan gets the scraps with a 1-3 day delay compared to the rest of internet shitholes.If you are into something there's always some schizo that made it their mission to click on every thread about something they hate and shit on it, at least in plebbit his ass would get banned.You just can't win, it's either contrarian incels seething at optional luxury products here or lobotomized redditors who would die to defend their favourite manchild toy corporation for free, the only environment where you can discover and talk about shit you like and literally bee urself is a group of irl friends, if you don't it then find one asap.Waiting for age verification laws to get passed globally so I have even more excuses to just go outside or read a book or something, internet was a mistake, humans didn't evolve enough to grant the opportunity to every retard mongoloid on earth to voice their pathetic irrelevant opinion that everyone can see.
>>219865471For the lulz
>>219865544>off topic shitpostingI wouldn't count on that. they found something worse than giving you a 3day ban. harder captchas for new IPs for a few days in the name of bot prevention.
4chan is the only place you can actually hold a conversation and discussion without people starting goalposting and start doing shit like attacking someone's post history or something else that has nothing to do with the discussion.Or sites like Reddit that's worse of the worst where you are not allowed to discuss anything and unless you just hold the current popular opinion you can't even use the site.
>>219865266/int/ is just /pol/ light, nothing but unironic racists
>>219865116There are no competitors to 4chan
>>219865694funny
>>219865550>getting filtered by 4chan's UIfucking kek why are zoomers so stupid
>>219865471Do they even know at this point? Most are just autistic and schizophrenic and following a routine because their hole filled brains demand it.
>>219860312That huge spike before 2023 was from the day that Simmons got eliminated on Fishtank
>>219860246where is buck breaking on this graph?
>>219865798They were all raised as "digital natives," which corporations insisted meant they were all going to be computer whiz geniuses, but in reality it just made them tech-illiterate retards who can't figure out anything that's not a phone UI.It's also why they can't torrent.
>>219860246some years back, whenever retarded shit like star wars were announced or released this entire board would be unusablemods refused to make a general, let alone a dedicated board for itsee those dips before the spikes? all me
>>219864316>The election tourists drove off most of the older userbase from 2015 onwardsLol this never happened, you're just triggered by the small amount of MIGAniggers on this board
>>219863883What a strange site.Can I use it anonymously or do I need a username?The site is for lawyers? Can I get sued for shitposting too hard?
>>219864241What was /afg/?
>>219865924Nah, I've never really cared much about MIGAfags in particular, and they're now irrelevant outside of their hugboxes anyways.I'm talking about the politically-obsessed in general, all the newfags who came to 4chan via /pol/ post-gamergate or /b/ post-fappening instead of boards like /b/ pre-2010, /v/, /a/, or even /tv/.And yes, I am implying that the Chanology fags were by far preferable to the election tourists, and it's not even close.At least most of them eventually got bored and fucked off back to their preferred sites after a month or 2 instead of staying and shitting up the site for almost a decade.
>>219860286There's just nothing good to watch
>>219864262>it is to be the Americans are the dyingGood morning
>>219860309The sticky is literally all you need and you only need that if you're starting out. Once you actually get fit all you'll do /fit/ is tell retards how they're wrong which becomes old pretty quickly.You need more in your life than just lifting.
>>219860309huh so even my personal drop off in using /fit/ is just mirroring a trend
>>219860286Because there's nowhere else to go anon, social networks like Tiktok/Twitter or reddit are censored or schizo central where you can't have a discussion without being banned or someone looking into your post history to dox you, forums are dead, 4chan alternatives are worse, discord is a glowies and pedo/trannies central base, letterbox is reddit 2.0 etc The internet overall is a garbage on fire who will be 10 times worse in the near future when you will need to show your ID and face to access it, i think going outside will be the best option
>>219865954it was launched the same year as 4chan, initially it focused on universities and related stuff, but now it’s more like a wild west text board without any moderation. The owner hasn’t been active since 2019.>Can I use it anonymously or do I need a username?you can use any moniker you want and it’ll stay tied to your account forever, there’s no limit on the number of names you can have
>>219862342when they dropped the captcha from 3 IQ tests to 2 I posted a little bit more but when it was 3 and 4 every single time, I just said fuck it
>>219866066>i think going outside will be the best optionHave you been outside lately? Shit's fucked up there too.
>>219862447>I've been asking myself the same thing. I think it's because I have literally nowhere else to go. Reddit? I'd sooner chop my balls off then talk to those faggots. Twitter? I had a Twitter once, I became suicidally depressed from having to witness so many fucking retards that I share my country and this planet with. Discord? Worse than Reddit trannies. I'm a man without a party, no group of people to call my own. Literally any hobby of mine, I look into the community and find it flooded with trannies and commies. This isn't a rant this is a cry for help.I miss altchans like 420chan
>>219865852It's not there. It's in the downward trend in 2021.
>>219865681So like this board?
>>219862447But you have us, fren
>>219866056Did you get buff
>>219862174The real answer is demographics. Zoomers/gen A only use phones and don't want to use Y2K imageboards designed for desktop use.End of an era.
>>219866265i don't know how to tell you this, anon. uhh... you better check your 4chan inbox... i'm sorry we had to break it off like this, i tried to persuade management but alas...
>>219862477/thread/High trafdic boards like /v/ or /pol/ are cancer. /tv/ goes a nice pace
Boards by daily posts : >75-100k/vg/>50-75k/v/, /pol/>30-50k/b/, /tv/*>20-30k/a/, /int/, /vt/, /tv/*>15-20k/trash/>10-15k/lgbt/, /sp/, /co/, /mu/Every other board gets less than 10k daily posts, most of those don’t even get 1k. The website is dying fast *with/without fishtank boost
>>219864081/sp/ is dead now as well. some threads are up for like 2/3 weeks. gamethreads are also pretty barren as well. not looking fwd to the world cup coming up as always board gets shitted up with /pol/ tourists and /b/ fags
>>219864894Ah yes, twitter, the famous site without bots and schizos
>>219866555When anon says "older users" he means post-2015 election tourists who came here in 2016 or 2017 who just used 4chan as a twitter replacement when they got banned from twitter, then they went back to twitter around 2023/2024 when they would no longer get banned as much for saying nigger there.The ACTUAL older users only bum around on specific boards, usually the ones dedicated to Japanese stuff, or moved on to other imageboards, or have largely stopped posting much online in general.
>>219860309>/tv/ is still a big board4u
>>219865674nah, reddit is better than 4chan for discussionwhenever I google a topicreddit shows up but aint 4chan
>>219866712One of the most thirdie-like posts I've seen on /tv/ lately and that's saying something.
>>219866712I hope you die a painful death in your sleep
>>219866731wanna found out more, ?, I've got named name as poster I post of but it aint getten those sweet (yahoooooooos)ifywim
>>219860340This anon gets it. Got banned for simply calling out that Brazil centric news shouldn't be allowed on /v/ (some dumb shit about their country adding age verification). Got hit with another 3 day ban.I only assume it's because the majority of this site's traffic is from south America and seaniggers who repost shit back to Twitter. Can't afford to have their biggest demographic be offended now can we?
>>219866754I have began haven't trouble sleepin for years by know. gettin more troublier as olders I becum. dunno but very soon reality checks upon u and cashes itself in. your wish upon stars but mooooons n platens u getifywhaim
The age of forums and imageboards is over.The age of social media and discord has begun.
>>219866772I once got banned for saying a pornstars asshole was too heptathedral.
>>219860548The borderline schizophrenic moderation is insulting arcoss all boards. You'll have threads up for 14, 15 hours just to be deleted when the shift changes.Speaking of threads, 3 day fucking old ones on /v/ one of the fastest boards.This also means that the number of individuals posting have plummeted. You're probably speaking to the same brown poorfags over and over again.Unironically reading reddit and x made me hate this place and it's ESL ass "community"
>>219864612Why the fuck does /lgbt/ have so much traffic, and where is /sp/?
>>219866852The age of social media and discord is ending, actually, to be replaced with endless AI and third world spam.Enjoy~!
>>219866856>This also means that the number of individuals posting have plummeted. You're probably speaking to the same brown poorfags over and over again.This is part of the reason behind the removal of the poster counter.
>fishtank generals shitting up the catalog>trigger happy jannies banning everyone over anything>movies and shows just keep getting worseyou can only make the same sopranos/avatar/alien/etc meme for so long.but really the off topic protected fishtank threads were the death blow to /tv/
>>219866862more socially stunted, isolated males online=more tarnnies
>>219866875Thankfully, The Dark Knight Rises and Breaking Bad are evergreen.
>>219865865forcing a general is gayforcing a board is lameimagine what state a star wars board would be in now?like it or not, subjective moderation is the best way to go. just randomly pruning excessive star wars threads (or any equivalent)
>>219860246AFib. Code brown!
>>219866875The amount of shit in my filters now. The mods let generals which turn into a fucking discord chatroom run rampant.
>>219866856>Unironically reading reddit and x made me hate this place and it's ESL ass "community"Reddit maybe, but twatter has just as many brown retard ESL shitheads, all of those countries need to follow in Brazil's footsteps and implement age verification so more sites can start being blocked in their shitholes and I can no longer be visually and auditorily assaulted by disgusting ESL misspellings and accents as they spam their worthless AI-generated dogshit all over the internet.
>>219866923they didnt moderate at allit was entire pages of bitching about a child's movie, literally way over half of the board
>>219860286>not even sure why i come here to be honestThere's literally nowhere else to go. It's either post here with the other retards and slowly become as retarded or lose your soul to the corporations and cease being human.
>>219866868Ironically samefagging used to be a bannable offense.>>219866943Skill issue. When you curate your feed it's pretty nice to see people post complete sentences and a comprehensive thought process.I get shit from Japanese posters as well. It's a godsend. This place makes me victim to whatever some dude from Indonesia thinks is sexy or how brown people are excited about stealing a video game.
How much of a retarded flaming faggot you have to be to defend tw*tter of all sites
>>219866875You say this, but anything that ISN'T one of those threads, a bait thread, or forced meme shit dies almost instantly.
>>219861844/a/ is the most heavily moderated board on the website. what are you on about
>>219862372>>219865550Hi
>>219862342>>219866093stop clearing your cookies or changing your ip retardsthe more you post the easier the captchas become and eventually you get the no verification requiredalso be glad it's an iq test
>>219862174Turns out unlike 4chan, you can actually curate your feed elsewhere.
>>219864687>The sharty would have replaced 4cuckAm I not enough of a Gen Alpha retard in order to understand what this phrase means?
This used to be THE female board. Where did they go bros.
Can someone help me with an .edu email for Autoadmit? Having trouble finding one here.The place looks fun
>>219864699>Turns out “just say no” doesn’t work.It literally does though?
Bane cancer and gingermod ruined this board
>>219867231why would they participate if it got swamped by "women"
>>219867206Sorry, but I can't take your posts seriously if you're a phonenigger.Phoneniggers should absolutely stick to twitter and stop coming here.
>>219860246Rabid shitposting mostly, I post less than even ten years ago
>>219862174Turns out these countries listed and their internet enabled young men are a scourge on ALL social media platforms.At least elsewhere you're able to isolate them from your view or have a community call them out for being fucking baiting retards.Except here. This thread will be deleted, op will receive a 3 day ban and mods will purposefully hide who is posting from where.IP count hidden, no options to see flags except for outside a few boards, etc.This place is ran by the countries in pic related and south American monkeys.It's God awful and you can't even say anything about it or you'll get banned.Fuck this place.
>>219867196>Just let the site fingerprint and track you brotry reddit maybe if you wanna make an account
>>219867196Anon, you should know by now that that's not an option, most of the time people are clearing their cookies and changing IPs because they're ban evading.They're literally bitching about the captcha functioning how a captcha is supposed to function.
>>219867376There's very little value left on this website.Fucking Twitterfags are better reaction post posters than 4chan has been in 5 years. All we get are the brown repost of a question or statement because the esl retards making the threads can't formulate a complete sentence. Then they'll just screenshot the responses and post it on x again.I've never posted on x or reddit but you'd be a fool to think that actual written content is better here.
>>219867528Go back.
>>219866862>Why the fuck does /lgbt/ have so much trafficI never really thought about /lgbt/ until the board deletion april fools. All the worst spammers were proudly saying they were from /lgbt/.
>>219860286This board is really slowing down. Some threads stay around for days now and it's not just due to the recent downtime. The site is dying. Probably for the best since we're still using memes from a decade ago.
>>219860286Everyone is watching Instagram reels instead.
>>219867446Leto lost. Get fucked faggot.
>>219867558>not addressing the fact that this site is dying because the quality of poster is in the shitterYou're brown and part of the problem. Simply bringing up the fact that topics about video games or television is more in depth and engaging elsewhere like old 4chan used to be. Isn't a point of contention dumbass.
>>219867604We are literally back to 2011 levels of traffic and that is literally a good thing.
>>219867528>Fucking Twitterfags are better reaction post posters than 4chan has been in 5 years.Some fag posting eceleb spam threads accidentally showed his twitter account and it was walls of whiny /leftpol/ posts, whiny posts about being an incel, and whatever the forced coomer meme of the month was. Twitterfags are the insane spammers that have ruined the site.
>>219867640The entire internet is dying for the same reason, I'm not sure what argument you're even trying to make here.Twatter is infested with AIslop dogshit as well.
>>219860309Good riddance, it was always a psyop to spread homosexuality among young men.
>>219863963Ian Miles Chong really is the face of Twitter.
>>219860309it's because blackpill and looksmaxxing exposed the gymcel cope so everyone stopped doing itthese guys on /fit/ genuinely thought that having a disgusting roider physique would magically fix their lives, and of course it didn't work/fit/ is the most boomer delusional board by far these days
>>219867673No, it isn't. I can't make any threads about movies I like. No one will discuss them. If I post a screenshot of Trump's latest TruthSocial post then I'll get replies of course. That's the state of /tv/
>>219867705Literal skill issue. Let me guess youtube is shit because your recommendations are all fucking retarded?Its like targeted ads dumbass. Your actions crafted what you see.
>>219865014I use the /vg/ flight sim thread and there's some autist spamming his loli sims pics because he's mad the OP contains the term /tsg/, which is the name of the sims general. Anyone who complains about it gets banned for off-topic. I really think the jannies are intentionally destroying the site.
>>219867759Yeah like I wasn't hearing the same thing in 2011
>>219867604>Some threads stay around for days nowBecause there are discord groups/shills that strategically bump threads. the harry plebber threads are prime examples of this happening
>>219867778Fuck off back already to wherever you came from
>>219867759Sadly all the quality posters seemed to have migrated elsewhere.I wish hiro would just leak the demographics of this site already so we can finally face the fact it's 85% rest of the world brown mystery meat.Any American let alone Anglo-Saxon would have been driven mad by the ESL posters.
>>219867799kek
>>219867840U mad bro? Guess how many times I saw people say shill, tranny or jeet in response to an actual question or statement?Zero.There is no discussion to be had here anymore. It's all gooners, seaniggers scrapping x repost content and discord fucking raids
>>219867778>>219867854Are these posts supposed to entice me to use twitter? Twitter is ground zero for the shitskin infestation of the internet.
>>219867854>hiro would just leak the demographics of this site alreadyThey were during the hack last yearThe problem, like already pointed out in this thread, is SEA asians and south americans. The latter of which people have said since 2010
>>219864663The only reason anyone came here to begin with was the relative lack of censorship. That is, compared to news sites, social media, etc, where you would get insta-banned for anything that departed from the mainstream narrative. That was, of course, before they just shut down all the comments sections.Sounds like what you really want is a highly-censored safe space like reddit. Maybe you ought to just fuck off back there instead of shitting up the only remaining uncensored forum.
>>219865544That's because it's astroturfed like /v/
>>219867231https://youtu.be/jxBGFFQr5eE
>>219867231>This used to be THE female board.Who will tell him
>>219867985Problem is 4chan isn't filled with intellectuals anymore just retards who get shit off Twitter.Avatar movie leak would have happened here 10 years ago. Now we don't even have a watch party thread about it.Diana pragmata nude mods would be flooding /v/ right now. But it's not.There's nothing left but retards posting shit from Twitter as OPs or other tired ass questions/comments.
>>219868033>Diana pragmata nude mods would be flooding /v/ right now. But it's not.Yeah because rapeape paid 40k for the enterprise version of SPUR. Your posts are tied to your real life and have been since mid jan
>>219867985>you don't want me using the ban evasion tool to spam CP? You want this site to be reddit!>you don't want me using the timestamp randomizer to make it slightly more difficult to detect me spamming the same thread! You want this site to be reddit!4chan had active moderation in all the periods people nostalgically post about. In the very old days you'd get an admin personally calling you a faggot before they perma'd you.
>>219868033I acknowledge the general decline that you're observing, but another side of the coin is that genuine intellectuals often get labeled as schizos by normie idiots that are just looking for a safe-edgy hugbox, or by glowies that don't want certain views spread. This is not to deny that legit schizos sometimes shit things up, but they're usually easy to ignore or entertaining.
>>219860309/fit/ness has be solved for decades.fit is dead because there's no boardculture anymore. Just coombaiting and r9k refugees
>>219860309A BIG BOARDFOR (You)
>>219866852True and zoomer/alpha pilled
>>219868082Those are strawmen. You were literally lamenting the fact that the relative lack of censorship here allows people to post views you don't like. You are reddit incarnate and should go back there. There are thousands of threads without anything to challenge your normie values for you there. Why do you insist on staying somewhere that you clearly do not belong? The actual design of this site is antithetical to your values.
>>219868103This nigger actually thinks that the babel marketing team are intellectuals.
>>219860246Hershlag posts
Based Fishtank keeping 4chan alive lol
>>219868104>>219868103Its the schizos mixed with the brown gooners that have tanked this site to no end.The Sarah Gordon poster should have been shot in the back of the head for violating the "discussing the actress not relevant to their roles" rule.But the only rule that seems to be held up universally is don't call a poster a nigger monkey from Brazil.
>>219868217e-celeb shit belongs on /b/ or /trash/
>>219860338>>219868238Holy seething buck. Imagine getting buck broken by Sam Hyde
>>219868172>relative lack of censorship here allows people to post views you don't likeGet with the times gramps. You must not post often because bans are handed out just for hurting feelings.Hellhttps://4chan.org/bansUsed to actually show the post that posted on that led to the ban. Wonder why they stopped showing that?This place isn't as censorship free as you think.
>>219868316You have to be 18 to post here
>>219868172>strawmenWatch the catalogue for a few days faggot, it's transparent. The ban evasion tool is dead and that furfag is going to assrape jail, but the people using it are still here.I've been here since 2009 you faggot. It's not about dissenting opinion, it's about autistically spamming the exact same posts and images with no variation. This site will continue bleeding users, then it will die. It will die because it no longer offers real discussion. It no longer offers entertainment or even novelty. It's a shrinking pool of obsessed spammers, bots, and the occasional jaded anon who comes here out of habit. That last group becomes increasingly withdrawn until they stop posting entirely. You will go to some shithole like xitter and maintain a small account that's indistinguishable from a jeet bot account. The only real way to save the site would be to purge the staff and hand the reins to someone who gives a shit, which seems unlikely.
>>219868330I said "relatively" censorship-free, not "absolutely" censorship-free. You're dumb and gay, kid. 67
>>219867441>Calls out browns for ruining the websitePost still up>>219868330>calls out browns for shitting up the board with off-topic irrelevant shitBanned and post deleted
>>219860309>>219864241>I used /fit/ a lot in the mid-2010'sSame. I remember at the time it was actually hard to find real facts about it, everything was I think /fit/ had a term for it, something like "housewife knowledge" but I forget. Anyway all that shit is the fucking dumbest chapter of my life. Maybe those are the reasons it's not used much anymore too.
>>219868316no u
4chan is literally pic related tier now.Just fucking put it out of its misery. For moot's sake
This thread is an example of what is wrong with this site now, every other post is just someone shouting at someone else calling them brown or a tranny.
>>219860309if everyone replying to this post is so sure /fit/ness has been solved, then riddle me this what is the optimal split?
>>219868507Just inject ozempic
>>219864469It was a modern day satanic panic, people in the media were trying to will a theater shooting into existence.
>>219868478And someone spamming twitter screencaps.It really is a microcosm of everything wrong with the site in one thread.
>>219868611I buy cheaper Glucagon-like peptide-1 over the internet.
>>219868611but i want to be hueg, not thin
>>219867196What if I wanna shitpost from several locations? I go back to work on Monday and I have to wait 15 minutes because no one has posted from that device for the weekend. I don't have enough time for that.
These days I mostly use 4chanX to filter dogshit.Filter out the shitpost spam terms, filter out any phone-sized or phone aspect ratio image, filter out any mobile filenames, filter out ESL shitposting terms, and every single board instantly becomes vastly more usable.
>>219868630My pet theory is that the percentage of actual autists has increased. A lot of the people calling themselves autists in the past were just socially stunted or traumatized by getting rejected in high school. I see a lot of people posting screens from something they're shilling for and it looks like dogshit. All those twitter posts look fucking stupid. You have to have next to no self-awareness to think that's going to change anyone's mind on twitter. There's also more obsessive behavior in general. I'll see small disagreement over nothing then some retard will spam his argument in every somewhat relevant thread for the next year. At least barneyfag was entertaining. The new autists are just sad.
Average 4chan poster in 2026.
>>219868746>img_12345I've never seen a good post with this.>>219868765Colombians fuck goats.
>>219867985That was before the entire third world came here to seethe about not having access to white women. At some point you just have to cut your losses and change your approach but the site management will never do that because it wouldn't be worth the effort compared to keeping the current skeleton crew around
>>219866658Yeah the actual older users have mostly moved on it seems
>>219862342This. I joked that the new captcha would act as an IQ test and prevent most Amerinonces from posting.I was just joking at the time, but it looks like that's exactly what happened :S
>>219868955Also fuck the anon whoose bitching about me posting my Twitter feed.This is the type of community and post we could have have curated for this website. Instead it's third world sex deprived brown fags.We could have been a place where Japanese ladies anonymously posted uncensored lady bits and confessions -_-
>>219860340t. retard
>>219869086You are mentally ill
>>219869086No one cares about some zoomer retard posting his twitter feed, go back.Don't bother replying to me because I'm insta-filtering you.
>>219862447>Literally any hobby of mine, I look into the community and find it flooded with trannies and commies.It's honestly incredible how every nerd hobby has been completely infiltrated by these people. Trannies and commies everywhere, and especially in positions of power. I have a feeling mass violence is on the horizon.
>>219869086Indians are notorious for hating porn spam. Very true my fellow twitterer!
>>219864739Nigger hate threads were a staple on /b/. Trannies basically didn't exist so of course they weren't mentioned. Jeets were relegated to Simpsons background characters and the smelly kid in your high school class who never talked. The lefty/pol/ revisionist posts are so transparent, just like every angle they try.
>>219866066>>219866097
>>219862174I seriously think a lot of posts are bots and trolls. When the hack happened, a lot of them went elsewhere. It was really nice for about 3 or 4 weeks when the site went back online. It felt like there were a lot nice posters and I was talking with actual people. Then once news got out, it went back to normal. I think a lot of bad actors come here to get attention because its easier to avoid the consequences since no account is needed. There are probably A LOT of bot posters here. I wouldn't be surprised if /pol/ is literally 90% bots at this point. I think the user base is much smaller than it actually looks in the data. I wouldn't be surprised if there are only a couple thousands regular human posters on here at a time.
>>219866437/vg/ isn't even a real board. It's literally just a schizo containment operation. I tried going there for the Tekken general when Tekken 8 came out, and the entire thread is just 2 or 3 completely insane schizos posting stream-of-consciousness nonsense like "yesterday I exposed myself" or one word posts. The numbers on that board are from a literal handful of anons.
Ritual autistic spammers who do not give up + retarded brown ESLs + inconsistent enforcement over the years (zero reason fishtank shit should have ever been allowed on /tv/ as well as reality tv show shit from /sp/ immigrants as early as 2011)this place died around 2014 and 2020 was the hospice phase and the hack was clearly the funeralNow it's just purgatory
>>219862215>A combination of captcha being an unwieldy pain in the ass>>219864484>do you fags really expect me to pass an IQ test captcha every time I post here>>219864998>I post a LOT less since the captcha became insufferable>>219866093>when they dropped the captcha from 3 IQ tests to 2 I posted a little bit more but when it was 3 and 4 every single time, I just said fuck itskill issue
>>219869742Unironically this is what happens when you have long running generals on a site like 4chan, they just get taken over by “thread personalities”, or in other words schizos that spam all day making the thread unusable . There aren’t any usernames or accounts here so they can’t be muted or banned, and even if they could be, the mods don’t give a shit and wouldn’t bother. For some reason they stopped enforcing the “no generals” rule a while back and now like half the active boards are just made up of generals that act like you described > 2 or 3 completely insane schizos posting stream-of-consciousness nonsense like "yesterday I exposed myself" or one word posts
>>219870227>giving hiromoot money to make the site worseCouldn't be me. I bet you pay for Youtube Premium too.
>>219870536>I bet you pay for Youtube Premium too.Freetubeapp.io
>>219860246X is 4chan now
>>219866080Lol the owner was extremely active in 2020 due to an event any user of that site is aware of
>>219867206>Turns out unlike 4chan, you can actually curate your feed elsewhere.This is huge. I touched on this in a post I made a while ago. 4chan is stuck in the past. If they didn't want you to do it, why is there even a filter? It's just a shitty version of it.Is there even any argument to why you should have to deal with all the garbage all the time?For the record I'd never use twitter, that shit is a fucking cancer ruining the internet already with random stuff being locked behind it all the time. Like hell I'm gonna make an account for a hostage/blackmail site like that. It's definitely not a substitute for this site either.
>>219860286A downward trend is a good thing, there's too many newfag retards shitting up this website as it is
>>2198708734chan going back to being a niche website is a best-possible result but it does make it way more obvious when the mods are being bad actors
>>219867985>The only reason anyone came here to begin with was the relative lack of censorship.i came here in 2008 to discuss share epic shitposts online and stayed by the 10s because it was by FAR the best place to discuss my hobbiesit still is.so kindly fuck election tourist. moot himself said this site was never about freedom of speech or anti censorship. not our fault you are not wanted anywhere else.
>>219867985I came here because it was a nerd forum. Guys that come here because it's RAW.... UNCUT.... UUUUNCENSOOOORED sperg out the hardest when they get banned because this place still has rules, and ranting about niggers without prompting is still frowned upon.
>>219871473I've been here far longer than you, newfag, and you didn't address my point. Relative lack of censorship is WHY it's better to discuss your childish hobbies here than elsewhere, and the relative lack of censorship objectively exists, whether or not that's what "the site is about", moron.
>>219871550I thought you were arguing about non-censorship being why people came here; why are you putting "the site is about" in quotation marks like it wasn't your idea in the first place
>>219867759Yeah turns out people care more about what's going on in the world than some shitty movie you like. Shocker
>>219871617Because "the reasons people came to this site" and "the stated intentions of the site's creator" are not the same thing, halfwit tourist.
>>219871690People came to this site because it was an anime and video game forum, you're citing the neo-nazis on /b/, /new/, and later /pol/ if you think anybody really came here for censorship reasons pre-MAGA and weren't a non-American with very restrictive internet/free speech laws
>>219871725The only thing this post proves is that you weren't actually here between 2007 and 2015 when MAGA hit. What's the point of badly LARPing as an oldfag? You're a tourist that came here for MIGA and developed self-consciousness as a reaction to all the hatred you've gotten for it.
>>219871801Congrats on outing yourself as an ex-MAGApede anon but I've already mentioned the neo-nazi cadres that repeatedly got chased out of /b/ and /new/ before /pol/ came along and they started setting up shop. No it wasn't just The Daily Stormer raiders that were neo-nazis on that board in its early days
>>219871550except thats insincereno magahat wanted to be here. they came here because they lost the culture war on social mediai discuss my hobbies here because i can to explicitely say "this director fucked up" without having his simp league ban or harass me from their forum. no holds barred discussion of a topic, wher eonly the topic matters.you come here because you have no choice, you are a retarded tourist that wants to post your agenda hat on your socials. you don't give a fuck about anonymity. never did, never will. you would be the guy harassing me for saying "your political figure fucked up".now you are returning to your shitty social media cliquesso kindly fuck off and close the door on the way out.
