/v/ 300,000,000 GET in under 3 hours from the last edit of this post!
Tips and tricks for GETing:
• Don't forget to post from your Phone/other devices if they are on other networks.
• Mention this site, but don't be retarded and actually type "8chan" or obvious affiliated words unaltered, they will likely get you an automatic ban and your post won't even get submitted, put the 8chan logo in your image instead.
You can find the 8chan logo here: >>8643
(∞chan is spam filtered, 8chan.co is banfiltered, and other hidden filters are in place which may vary per board and change over time, always slightly obfuscate your mentions of 8chan to avoid any chance of hitting a filter)
• Be clever: (don't simply copy the following examples)
- Replace letters with their foreign counterparts ( http://www.lexilogos.com/keyboard/index.htm | http://www.starr.net/is/type/altnum.htm | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faux_Cyrillic | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_alphabet ):
>8cháñ
>응chan ( Be inventive with Chinese/Japanese/Korean/Gook symbols http://www.lexilogos.com/keyboard/index.htm )
- Use Combining Characters (Zalgo Text) to dodge the filter ( http://www.eeemo.net/ ), use weak settings so that your words aren't completely illegible.
You can combine this with the above suggestions to be extremely safe.
- Use synonyms: ( http://thesaurus.com )
>This is for Flaming Wheels
>GET for the chan of infinity
- You can just talk about 4chan:
>mods are corrupt
>4chan is kill
• REDUCE THE FILESIZE OF YOUR IMAGE! You do not want to be stuck waiting for your image to upload in the last critical second:
- Open it up in an image editor and crop AND shrink that shit.
- Try converting your image to different file formats with lower quality settings. (eg. Go into GIMP, and save as .jpg with lower quality and higher smoothing settings)
- Big areas of flat colours compress better than complex patterned areas. See if you can simplify your image. If the background doesn't matter, smudge it and/or try to make it a single colour.
( see http://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/a/48760 for more )
• Making a thread requires an image, if you don't want to post an image and if you want to post with the lowest latency possible then consider making your GET post in an existing thread.
[Warning, it can be incredibly difficult in the final seconds to get into an existing thread and post a GET attempt before the thread is pushed off the board by new threads. Make a new thread for your GET attempt if possible]
• Do not worry if you don't have a GETing script, most of us don't and they will be highly inaccurate in a GET of this magnitude, we are using our numbers and autism to carpetbomb this GET.
You can get a GET watcher script on https://get.4ch.net/
It will help you keep track of the post number in real time and is an invaluable asset. Be wary in the last crucial seconds, as the final post spikes may catch you off guard.
• https://archive.today and screenshot the GET post if you get or see the GET, it is very likely it will be deleted by mods or pushed off the board by new threads.
