>/v/ and /pol/ are the only boards that care about this year's April Fools
What the fuck happened to the rest of this website?
>>
those are the only two boards not completely dead at this hour.

it is dead. actually just a carcass

There are boards outside of /vpol/?

It's another dogshit one

>the two factually lowest IQ boards care about bouncy castly day for NEETs
Of course
>>
/vt/ used to be faster than both but ever since the hack the hololive global thread there moved to holotower.org instead, taking like 70% of that board's activity
>>
>>736137543
its unironically dead
most of /v/ and /pol/ are just leftover bots

you can open like 20 tabs of non-bot threads and you're lucky to get like 10 new posts in an hour, or a slow thread will stay up for nearly a week nowadays

/jp/ got raped by the 2 week til autosage change and morale in a board already divided and dissatisfied with its treatment prior to that change.
A nothingburger of an event isn't gonna help.
Maybe try being funny next time.

Hm. Maybe the site's dead due to the new captcha system. And what do the mods do? They make an April Fool's prank themed around captcha itself

I've been here 20 years and I'm only still here because I don't know where to go anymore. I don't even like any of you fuckers anymore. It's always "ugh tranny this" or "ugh nigger that.

Every mod left here should do what they should have done a long time ago and splatter their brains across their room.

>>736137543
The rest of the boards are dead, shit and irrelevant.
Even /pol/ and /v/ sometimes have 2 day old threads.

Ghislaine Maxwell email leaks showed that Steve Bannon hooked Epstein up w/ m00t who convinced him to create /pol/ after seeing /v/ mobilized by GamerGate.

/pol/ and /v/ were targeted by insane political psy-ops and bot spam to get them talking about certain things.

Now that a lot of that activity isn't necessary it;s clear how fucking DEAD this site is.

Same. The rest of the internet is a wasteland. Reddit killed traditional message boards and I’m not posting there with those faggots. Twitter is mostly bots and jeets. Fuck that. When this place dies I won’t have anywhere to discuss my hobbies.

There are lots of places to discuss nearly anything, that arent centralized websites. But you have to find them and if you relied on google for finding everything for the last 20 years youre sol. You gotta learn how to navigate without search engines

Didn't happen during the hack. Most users just stopped. Some generals reappeared elsewhere, but for the most part people just stopped. Or, I dunno, maybe they're all on Discord or never left IRC and I'm out of the loop.

It's not the worst because I personally expected Power to return like Nobara without properly reading both of JJK and CSM. I didn't even think about AOT's ending at all long before it ended in comparison.
>>
>>736138685
Yes. Some people get a joke captcha. I have posted maybe 100 times and seen nothing but apparently some do
>>
>>736138602
Essentially Denji and Yoru stopped fighting when Yoru promised to have sex with him but then the robot devil (I think) killed Denji off screen and ate him. While in hell (I think) Pochita tells Denji he was better off when he was struggling as a slave for the yakuza and then eats himself. This reset time back to the beginning but without Pochita. Power then saves Denji from the zombie devil and they both end up working for Nayuta (for some reason) in public safety. The End.

Nah JJK and AoT ended up abruptly with many things left unfinished but at the very least they didn't make the entire fucking story not matter at all.

Everyone got sick and tired of the janny social experiment of combing the boards into a few easy to police and narratively control ones so they can finally turn 4chan into their dream socialist outlet poorly veiled with "this is just April's Fools guys" real fast last year.
So sick in fact a dead board came back from the grave to doxx the jannies which resulted in most of them running away, and the ones left don't dare to fuck with weaponized autism again.

April Fools is about mocking anyone who still believes in the 12 Months. There are supposed to be 28 days a month totaling 13 months for a year. Christmas in December and New Year in January are originated from pagan events worshipping Saturnalia and Janus respectively but whatever you say samefag.

I can't tell if this is pro or anti /pol/. The heh was laughing at /pol/, in case it was ambiguous. The Diddy Kong Racing image was chosen randomly from my folder, nothing was implied by it. Though I imagine some interpreted Raj as some sort of knock on foreigners, it was not my intention.
>>
>>736137543
Other boards never post about the april fools event unless they're forced to. Everyone just comes to /v/ for them since we're the designated shitting board.
>>
Pretty shit this year. Could have been slightly decent if they figured out a way to completely filter out anyone that couldn't solve it right and made the captchas even more difficult as the day went on

That sped up the decline but it was already trending in this direction before it happened. At least on /v/ we've seen a lack of effort in moderation over the years and it's pushed a lot of posters away. It's unappealing to open a thread and immediately see third worlders or bots spamming about how X is the worst thing ever and half the thread is unhinged spam. There was no effort to keep these low quality hate posters off the board while there WAS effort to keep AI, porn, and other offtopic threads up 24/7.

Trolling is always fun but I feel like it's just not practiced these days, in it's place you have literal actual real life schizos who have decided to make hating X or Y the focus of their life and spend 18 hours a day refreshing the catalog looking for a thread on it so they can spam 150 posts screeching at people trying to discuss it.

Supposedly to counter the hololive general because schizos from there would bump every thread on the board to shuffle off their ~1000 posts-in-an-hour chatbox thread and get the chance to make the OP featuring their vtumor of choice.
In reality the /jp/ mods are extremely antagonistic to the board's existing community and wants to fuck them over for no reason other than spite. This was confirmed in screenshots from the hack last year.
Note that /vt/ already exists but vtumors don't use it (same with gachaniggers here not using /vm/), and when this 14-day autosage was implemented they immediately flooded the board with individual threads for each vtumor the same way each toehoe has her own thread. Same schizos then falseflag that "/jp/ is dead I wanna move out to an altchan" to further demoralize the userbase so that they take over the board for themselves.

/jp/ is one of the few old 4chan boards to "take it easy" with threads easily lasting months, but this change absolutely ruined the board.

>schizos from there would bump every thread on the board to shuffle off their ~1000 posts-in-an-hour chatbox thread and get the chance to make the OP featuring their vtumor of choice.
Absolutely radioactive levels of cancer, holy shit

Honestly though I don't really understand why there's a page or post limit anymore regardless, they could just double the page count and increase bump limit to 1500 no problem. I don't see what the downside would be.

I feel that mods sometimes want to counteract the formation of "generals" on every board, even though generals are simply how posters naturally organize the long-term never-ending discussion of a topic on slower boards. Like /vrpg/ and /vst/ aren't about generals, but realistically if you make a thread about anything there it becomes a long-term thread, so now those boards are almost entirely generals. Combating generals on /v/ makes sense because I was there and remember how awful that was, but on slower boards it's not really practical

I genuinely cut my posting by about 90% and my OC creation by 100% due to how often jannies ban me over nothing. I use to draw so much OC for this website too. This website is dead and mods killed it
>>
Why do people use /v/ as a dumping ground anyway?
>>
>>736145502
Because one extremely popular thread/topic begins pushing everything else off the board. /vg/ exists primarily because we were going through SC2 threads at a rate of like a dozen in a 6 hour period. Also as anon pointed out it causes anti-topic at hand schizos to begin doing weird shit AND people within the threads begin thread wars trying to snipe the new OP causing the creation of even more threads.

It's a disaster that can only be contained by kicking the thread off the board to a new one.

>>736145197
>Supposedly to counter the hololive general because schizos from there would bump every thread on the board to shuffle off their ~1000 posts-in-an-hour chatbox thread and get the chance to make the OP featuring their vtumor of choice
Wait, was that actually specifically what it was? I thought it was just some random disgruntled schizo since there was(and still is) a schizo doing this exact behavior(albeit not as bad as it used to be) on /h/ trying to bury the AI threads once they hit the 300 text post bump limit(which they would spam literal nonsense posts to hit on new thread creation, with the retarded as fuck janny/mods doing absolutely nothing about it).
Also fuck even just /jp/, vtumor shit really should receive the full mlp treatment site-wide. No idea why they allowed that shit to continue on /jp/.
the 2 week bump limit really fucks over the super specific niche topic threads that would last for 1-2 months otherwise. It's so fucking dumb.

/vt/ was created specifically because they were too fast and big for /jp/ to handle, they were genuinely chewing through multiple threads a day
most people werent trying to purposefully bump off 2hu, though it just speaks to the need of a place just for that topic so as not to disturb the natives
they were also given increased post limits to try and handle it

/vt/ was once in contention for top 3 board by activity and hololive general was the single most active thread on the website whose activity was literally eclipsing multiple boards combined
The only reason this is no longer the case is that they purposefully mismanaged hololive threads such as that they made their own altchan and successfully raptured from 4chan. all that's left on /vt/ now is 3rd world drama schizos, steam charts fags but for vtubers, phase connect (admin and janny's favored pol dogwhistle company) and small indie vtuber fans

No such thing. You'll always have board regulars, personalities, namefags, and schizos; on this site, r*ddit, or anywhere on the Internet. Also you're not getting literal randos going to engage with you about japanese MLP.
As I said, if you are sincere then /jp/ when a new manga chapter or mainline entry is released is the best place for discussion because the first few threads can go to 1000 posts of actual discussion which genuinely seem like from disparate posters.

Mods seem to practice AoE bans these days where everything in a specific thread gets banned and deleted. I got caught in a few of those.

>>736150359
The funny thing is that you could see in real time how they flipped the switch from calling everyone chinese to now indians because their neonazi overloards saw how fucked their empire is against china and picked a smaller target instead.
And both make no sense because those are completely disconnected internet bubbles from ours here.

The chinese and koreans really do actually spam blacked porn, They are fucking obsessed with it, they film and draw the most amount of blacked shit in the world, that part at the very least is true

>>736150449
I get caught in these when the threads aren't even off topic. Why the fuck did this thread get pruned? I got a ban for being a poster in this thread too not even the OP

Got banned for being in this thread too. Why was this deleted and all the posters banned jannies? Ever wonder why the site fucking sucks and is devoid of joy jannies?

Fucking stealth horse threads on /v/ piss me off, they do this shit so goddamn often

>Ever wonder why the site fucking sucks and is devoid of joy jannies?
they don't, because the only joy they care about is their own, which they can only derive from being cunts

>>736150565
>>736150632
Jannies are faggots that will delete an on topic thread just because they have a thorn in their side that day and are just waiting for the next goon dump thread to spend their afternoon in.

Luckily I learned from my past behavior and have never trolled again. Jannies showed me the error of my ways here and I haven't troll posted since!

>>736150876
jannies can't ban, only mods can.
best jannies can do is flag for review(basically act as a glorified report filter) and delete posts individually.
that said both jannies and mods are fucking retarded and don't actually look at jack fucking shit the majority of the time.
t.have been banned for "lolicon outside of /b/" on porn boards when the character has DD's purely because someone reset their router 10 times to report it (this isn't an exaggeration, schizos actually DDoS reports and jannies/mods are dumb enough to respond mostly ONLY to that sort of behavior).

Genuine fall of Rome shit. Also I guess we're in autosage now.

I don't get banned for that but I usually use one of the SFW BnP image.

Pretty sure that's because of the image.

I have posted that image literally dozens of times and only once got banned for it

All things considered, /v/ mods are actually great, compared to /a/ or /ck/
>>
>>736151623
Well that's retarded.
>>
>>736151675
/a/ mods actually delete twitter screenshots and reddit posts. No other board mods come close to that
>>
I would have all the boards without flags/thread IDs randomly get them.
You can be hours into a thread then bam you find out the entire thread is you and two indians pretending to be 20 people.
>>
>>736151670
Mods aren't one person and can make different judgement calls but never mind. If they banned that other image, then they are retarded.

At the end of the day it's just "this shit is better than this shit". We shouldn't have to put up with shit at all.

>>736151778
I feel like /a/ has the opposite problem where they moderate so hard that they don't allow any ounce of fun, which is why the board is at least 70% storyline threads.

They do. Those Koume eight of clock threads were why I finally decided to watch that show and I loved it but the mods decided to kill them and other recurring threads. I get the reasoning but the board is very sterile now.
