>tfw too scared to post on /a/ because you're socially retarded

R: 131 / I: 52 / P: 1

Not sure how much attention the rest of you have been paying to what's been happening on the rest of 8ch.

Basically, we're being raided by an outside chan. They've been trying to turn users against board owners by spamming anime images then spamming more about how the mods are rulecucks. From there, either new boards are created, or existing ones cooped and an effort is made to drive users to the new boards. /v/, /pol/ and /sp/ have all been major targets, with /leftypol/ possibly being next. Honestly, the whole thing smells a lot like what happened a while ago on here with the nazi spammer and /am/, but they might try it again with more force.

I didn't post this on the actual board because of the no meta rule, but hopefully at least some of you see this, especially the board owner or one of the mods. More info can be found here:

I left 4chan for 8chan because I grew tired of the arbitrary of the mods. They didn't hesitate to ban you for vague reasons, because they disliked you, because you said something that was forbidden on today's list of buzzword, or for any other number of sad causes. And I think I did right. All the board of fullchan are far more tightly moderated.

Save /a/. Right now, fullchan /a/ is the only boards where I feel the same arbitrariness, because its mod is a self-righteous prick who sincerely believe his opinion is the only one valid. He's everything that is wrong with /a/. He's the very definition of the autistic attention whore, who does it for the vague thrill of power and the idea that he's Just and Right under the sky. And he just created a board where we can safely discuss about Him all day and why He's (indeed) right.

And the worse? He's basically convinced of his worth. That's the only way to have a better board is to ban anybody he doesn't like. Because, well, he doesn't like them, and he's objective, so that means they are bad people, isn't it? That's 4chan thinking right here. And he doesn't see why this is wrong.

/a/ has become consistently worse as an easily predictable result. And, as its quality tumble down, I find myself caring less and less.

Truth is, I never really cared to begin with. People who care tend to be banned. Just like in my old 4chan.

That's /ameta/. And that's everything I wanted to say.

I have been banned recently, because of Pic related.

WTF does posting a link to Kiss manga equal to instant ban without warning. I was about to reply to the anon who replied >Kissmanga, but then I was banned!

Im ignorant of this reason to ban. Have Kissmanga done something horrible or what?

I agree with the other moderations in that thread, but deleting the poster who links to MAL was unnecessary. It says nowhere in the rules that linking to MAL is illegal, and I do not think it is the mods' job to enforce board culture. It's not like he was promoting MAL or saying, "Here, come check out my MAL list", he was just linking to resources about the specific anime he was talking about. MAL is like an anime encyclopedia so I think using it for that purpose is ok.

4/a/'s hatred for anything 8chan

They hate us but it's misguided hate. I was part of the first exodus to 8chan and don't even play video games or participate in /v/. I just got tired of the mods and 8chan was a chance to leave that place. It's really a shame that they hate us so much.

Mods are really soft on /a/ now compared to when they were before the first exodus. It's not because they suddenly care. It's because they don't want a rebellion. If /a/ rebelled like /v/, /jp/, /pol/ and /sp/ that would be a big problem for 4chan. But I'm not going to let their softness lure me in because I don't want to go back there.

Tensions I think will be high between 4/a/ and the moderation in the coming future. But the moderation will be like loving babysitters and go into damage control should any problems happen. Moderation fucked up other boards but they stopped themselves just in time for /a/ before it became too late. They only realized that after ruining several other boards and causing a mass migration to 8chan.

They don't even know that 8chan is the only thing right now preventing moderation from bringing down the hammer on them.

Janitor from 8/a/ here.

I want to start off by saying how completely disappointed I am in every single one of you. You all single handedly ran away our guests by posting nothing but childish, disrespectful, and just flat out rude /jp/ shitposting threads. /a/ is a chance for redditors and people in general to interact with us jannies and otherwise famous people when they will likely never have a chance to do so. What you all did was completely un-called for. I am now having to reschedule the hotpocketing for another time because so many people that actually wanted to have meaningful serious discussions had their chances ruined because of all of you. I can tell you with complete certainty that if I see a single “OHAYOU”, “Take it easy!”, or “SAOVQ” reference on /a/ you can bet that you will be permanently banned.

R: 3 / I: 5 / P: 3

A short rant

The ratio of /a/'s actual skill to how smug and elitist they are is worse than almost any community I've seen. You guys make Linus Torvald look like a patient man who loves to help aspiring programmers, but your claim to fame is being able to navigate unintuitive user interfaces on obscure websites.

History Lesson!

You guys can stop calling me nigger or Indian. I'm Cambodian.

R: 9 / I: 8 / P: 4

I'm not a cuckold because I think the black race is superior. I just happen to be a huge masochist, and the idea of humiliation turns me on. Having sex with niggers is like sex with animals, so the idea of my girlfriend having sex with them and making me clean her up after is the biggest turn on ever. I don't have a girlfriend, but my older sister went out with a black guy once, and that was almost as good.

R: 6 / I: 2 / P: 4

I can't believe the topics the last few days. The kind of conversations going on. Are we being raided? There isn't that much to do about anime, but everyone comes in to debate transexuality, homosexuality, and vagrancy.

We need to gut this obvious bait and enforce our own type of "rule 11" where we keep things on topic with anime. I myself get stifled off when you have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the page to talk about season one because the other threads are about NEETs, Traps, Feminine Dicks, Weeblife, and TFW You'll Never be a Cute Little Girl type of shit.

Come on, meidos, enforce some shit, get rid of this not anime meta garbage. This is going to be a trend sooner or later and 8chan's /a/ will turn in to wizardchan where 80% of posts concern how much bodily fluid users have saved in mason jars.

R: 4 / I: 1 / P: 4

Which rule does ban evasion violate? Oh right, none. Nowhere in your sticky on /a/ is ban evasion listed as a rule, why are the mods making shit up?

R: 1 / I: 1 / P: 4

Let me be clear, I sporadically check out /a/ and I liked to board months ago, but it seems like there are more, to put it bluntly, dicks hanging out on the board. I'm genuinely curious as to why some of you guys make it a point to either not respond to newcomer questions or to make a post reprimanding someone for doing so. Is it the notion that answering questions here and there, as simple as they are, open a perceived flood gate of genuine fags that can't be assed to google it themselves?

Is there really a point in making a post whose only purpose is a reprimand?

Best example in my recent memory was the Boku no Hero Academia thread that saw posts and post removals over people just naming the manga in response to what manga the thread was about.

R: 11 / I: 2 / P: 4

I know /ameta/ board is practically dead but I'm sure there are a couple who actually somewhat care enough to lurk this board. So here's an actual meta thread. /a/ has been in the 400's for a while now. Usually they pick back up but they haven't. I do think that it will go back to normal in this upcoming season. In fact, I hope the board quits being shit this next season.

I'm not a cuckold because I think the black race is superior. I just happen to be a huge masochist, and the idea of humiliation turns me on. Having sex with niggers is like sex with animals, so the idea of my girlfriend having sex with them and making me clean her up after is the biggest turn on ever.

I've been watching this board for a while now, and I've noticed a few patterns in the arguments and their flaws. There seem to be a number of people on here who don't actually browse 8/a/ who are advocating everyone goes back to 4/a/. Sometimes, this strategy actually works and people go back to the original board. The two main reasons listed seem to be perceived quality and speed. 8/a/ is far slower than 4/a/, this is absolutely true, but I think plenty of evidence has been presented to show that statistically the board isn't really getting any slower. I submit that this board eats users by focussing their attention on obsessing over the speed more than they otherwise would care, but that's an issue for another thread.

The real issue is the quality. I've seen some screencaps indicating that the quality on 8/a/ has been dropping, and I think they're probably right. I've seen users throw up their hands and say

>this place is shit now, I'm going back to 4chan

But it's not like 4/a/ is actually doing better. In fact, as we can see from threads like https://archive.moe/a/thread/125873501 and https://archive.moe/a/thread/125711407 the exact same complaints you're seeing about it here on /ameta/ are also cropping up over there. I think it's a case of the grass always being greener on the other side, and submit that BOTH /a/'s are having the exact same thing happen to them, here or there is a false dichotomy.

Something is very wrong with the /a/ community as a whole, I don't understand what but jumping around sites searching for the silver bullet isn't the answer. We need to identify what the problems are and what countermeasures could be used, and it mustn't be in the form of bickering about the 4/a/ vs. 8/a/ dichotomy or we'll never get anywhere.

/a/ is a community, not a website, and I think most here have lost sight of that. It is a BAD thing if 4/a/ goes under, it is a BAD thing if 8/a/ goes under, it is a BAD thing if fufufu goes under, it is a BAD thing if ANY instance of /a/ goes under. It really looks like we might be on the verge of losing the core spirit of /a/ indefinitely, and we really need to work together on this to prevent that from happening.

R: 116 / I: 24 / P: 13

Can we please have IDs enabled. It would greatly detract the shitpost count as casual users wouldn't go through the process of switching up their proxy and posting under an ID.

We'd have users to blame per thread and call them out for their behavior.

I normally don't post on /a/ for the very fact there aren't IDs, seeing as the lack of them encourages people to samefag while creating a false dichotomy.

I'll throw in some ideas, as always you are can think I'm a massive faggot that's wrong if you want. The best ideas come from struggle and disagreement.

btw I don't watch anime anymore but I used to post on 4chan /a/ a long time ago.

8chan is not at prime time yet, that will happen when the rewrite is completed. Right now the board software has some issues that will put people off.

4chan /a/ has a much higher opinion of itself than it deserves, the board is mostly shitposting but having a good morale about it is ok. The elitism is largely in their minds.

/a/ is one of the pillars of 4chan, if /a/, /v/, /b/ and /pol/ are shaken then the whole of 4chan is, unfortunately /a/ was one of the boards least shaken by recent events.

You need all the users you can get. 4chan got to where it was today due to lax rules, I'm not saying it should be a shitposting free for all but a balance.

90% of the problems are due to smaller userbase, 8chan needs more users. Even if the moderation was terrible more users would balance it out.

4chan has a massive advantage, the user base is mostly under control and they are free to spread negative memes about you while you can not refute them on their home ground due to heavy censorship.

that is all.

I do not understand why this MAL place has a bad reputation. . I wouldn't want to make an account there myself, but it seems like their general credibility is pretty good, probably better than /a/ or most Japanese websites.

Also to be clear, I hate those people who say "I have a MAL account but only use it for tracking". Why would you use anime facebook if you think the community is cancerous? I don't like social networking so I do not have an account there myself.

Let's go through all of >>>/a/ 's rules and see how fucking faggy and pathetic they are, shall we?

>1. Global rules apply.


No shit, you fucking faggots. That's why they're global rules.

>2. No shitposting and no spamming.

>2a. I trust the users to understand what shitposting is. I cannot begin to teach you board etiquette, so if you have any doubts, I suggest you lurk more and familiarize yourself with it.
>2b. Spamming isn't up for debate.

No shitposting. What the fuck do you mean by shitposting? This is so open ended that it can literally cover any fucking possible base.

>3. No recommendation threads. That said, there is a >>>/rec/ board, and I encourage everyone to use it, and to search for the /a/ wiki to get you started. Some of the charts there are out of date, and I encourage older anons to help update them

>3a. Source and other requests should also be made on >>>/rec/

"Please don't post anything that might lead to a meaningful discussion here. We just want endless meaningless waifu threads."

>4. Porn and lewd have to be spoilered. For a straight definition, if it shows nipples or vagina, spoiler it. Nobody is going to get banned over this. If the maids notice something that should be spoilered and isn't, they'll do it themselves.


Hey, whatever, who gives a fuck? I don't get why this is a rule if it's never even ruled.

>5. No 3D porn of any kind.


Whatever. Pretty moronic and specific rule, but it's fair enough.

>6. Furthermore, /a/ maintains a strict 2D/3D barrier, especially when it comes to lolicon/shotacon material.


Covered in the global rules you monkeyfucks.

>7. /jp/ is allowed.


That's great. This isn't really a rule, niggers.

>8. Meta content should be posted on >>>/ameta/


Probably the most faggy rule of them all. This is halfchan tier shit right here.

"We don't want the userbase seeing how much we're actually fucking hated, please post in a trafficless board so they don't know we're massive faggots who came from /v/ and stole this board from actual fans."

>9. Tangentially related /pol/ content/images should be posted on >>>/weebpol/


Weird and specific, but again who gives a fuck?

>10. Name/avatar/tripfagging without a reason should be avoided.


"Dyurr, let's make a rule out of something that's simple futaba etiquette because we're inbred cunts who've never been on a futaba board before."

>11. Posts should in general use correct capitalization and grammar, this isn't IM.


You know what this rule says to me?

It says, "I'm a man who dresses his hand as a monkey and fucks it pretending it's a monkey because all I have in life is managing /a/ on fullchan."

>12. Board is 18+. Keep that in mind


Board is 18+ but porn is censored. What the fuck is wrong with you retards?

https://8ch.net/pol/res/1811410.html

Another thread where /pol/ is shitting their pants about anime and videogames. Of course, no one cares about the Eurasian shitposter thread also on the front page, their issue is that people are having fun instead of being serious all the time. And to them it must be some kind of mod conspiracy to slide something important off the front board, but you never hear what is being slid because they aren't talking about anything important.

/pol/ and /new/ have never been all serious, no fun allowed all the time. 4/pol/ is able to balance causal threads, actual political threads, along with happening threads when they happen. Say what you will about 8/a/, I think it feels the same as 4chan, it is just slower and some shows don't get discussed each season. But it feels the same. /pol/ feels like a different place, more paranoid, more serious, and less actually relevant content to discuss.

Not /a/ related, I realize that. But that anon, who hates 8/a/ but defends 8/pol/ and thinks I am an /int/shill, I would really like to know why a slower, more retardedly paranoid version of /pol/ is so necessary to defend or an attractive target for shills. What are they sliding.

R: 14 / I: 2 / P: 15

Have you guys heard about the newest happening over on /pol/, both here and 4chan. It's leading into something called >>>/shillgate/. Pretty interesting stuff, if a bit terrifying. As /a/, we're almost entirely seperate from these sorts of things due to our focus on Japan. However since shillgate seems to be all about media control and subliminal messaging, I started to wonder about how it could. Then I remembered we have Get Married You Otaku Scum Season 2, the anime airing right now. Do you think other shows are more subtle and doing this type of thing? Sure, as non-Japanese viewers, we aren't the ones targetted, but it's worth considering.

I'm scared.

>banning someone for 3 hours because they didn't use perfect capitalization/grammar
Are you niggers serious? There's a difference between creating rules to reduce the amount of shit that clogs up /a/ like no rec threads/unnecesary tripfags and full blown autistic rulecuckery like this. We're on an imageboard for fucks sake, most people don't use perfect grammar because it's supposed to be a relaxed atmosphere where they can just talk casually about their shit, and frankly if you did enforce this rule properly from just looking at the front page alone you'd have to delete over a dozen posts (>no periods/improper capitalization/etc.).

On top of that just because someone doesn't use proper grammar doesn't mean their shit should get banned and deleted - if people can actually understand what they're saying that's all that really matters, pretty much anyone who's visited a chan before has seen quality posts wrapped up in shit-tier grammar and other glaring flaws. All this rule does is scare off fags who get banned for seemingly no reason (and then find out that the meido didn't like that they forgot to capitalize the correct letters) and drive them out of 8/a/.

There's been a lot of weird shit flying around 8chan recently, including allegations of an offsite trolling and shitposting group riling up the major boards. Siztra and his pals are probably familiar to all of us but so far I've seen no evidence to substantiate there is a similar group at work here.

We've mostly been spared from the recent drama but please remember to keep a cool head in the coming weeks and to not start seeing conspiracies. Think of the 4/jp/ janitors who went insane seeing every post as a ban dodger.

>what does /a/ think of [widely known entry-level anime series]?

I see loads of threads like these all the time. It would be acceptable if the OP had something new to say about it, or wanted to discuss an aspect that hasn't been covered before, but most of the time it's just:
>what does /a/ think of [widely known entry-level anime series]?

I honestly can't tell if this is a type of shitposting, or the people who make these threads really are cancerous.
I think Meido should ban anyone who makes shit threads like these.

Why? People will use the other thread and this one will 404. People will call him a faggot for making another thread. Forcing people to use one thread is dumb and how is how general cancer began on 4/jp/,

So whats with the mods deleting threads because of personal tastes?

Like 6 times i've seen threads have perfectly amicable and on topic anime discussion get deleted the moment a certain "trigger" happens.

For example if you criticise Tokyo Ghoul RE in anyway i see the thread deleted in minutes.


This is a little disconcerting guys. Its not happened to threads i make yet, but this is kind of rude really.

What is the dilly-o? isn't the board slow enough without this?

Very interesting metashit thread happening on cuck/a/ right now. I recommend everyone to read it. They even made a mention of 8/a/ and how there aren't any better alternatives than their current home right now.

Please don't fall for this crap if they try that, /a/, I beg you.

/int/ are really no different than the worst type of JIDF Kikes. They want to destroy this website with their shitposting, like the Cultural Marxist Jews wreck entire nations.

Posting this here because it's not /a/ but I don't know where else to. You can delete this if it doesn't belong here.

If any of you like video games in addition to anime, >>>/svidya/ would be welcoming for all the autistic discussion you can output on vidya. I just feel like our boards are similar in some ways.

I just reported a thread that was discussing dubbed anime for trolling/shitposting, and when I returned to the front page the thread was out of sight; it was deleted by meido.

Thank kami-sama there is finally some change around here.

I hope the dub-watchers were banned too.

Why has this place gone to shit? What happened when it was good ol times when we were /anime/ 3 owners with the last 2 being total fucking shit with rulefagging all over the place? Mods/Owners avatarfagging, greentexting threads, shitposts, memes.

Fuck /a/ has turned to shit
R: 12 / I: 3 / P: 17
I think the problem with a lot of boards on 8chan is they're big enough to be active, but too small to have their own culture.

/v/ and /pol/ are their exceptions, they are big enough to be active and have their own culture, which for better or for worse, is distinct from 4chan.

/a/ feels like a collection of people who used /a/, who want to be an /a/, but there's nothing differentiating it from /a/. It's just small /a/.

I guess this means that the best boards are the boards that pop up for a week and die, like /redchanit/ and /bane/, or otherwise fill a niche. /weebpol/ fits in this category as filling a niche, but unfortunately there's not enough boards that fill a niche for otaku hobbies.

I think the solution is to have threads that make the board feel a little more like a community instead of just a smaller /a/. Not meta threads/shitposts, but like anon's idea down below of a hunger games contest with /a/ related themes, r/a/dio is another good example. Stuff that makes it feel distinct from 4chan or any other website's weeb board.

This is about thread

>>>/a/112150

>Shitting up the thread that is already just underages going "HURF DURF AH'D FUK DAT" and pointlessly imagedumping

>Deleting the posts I've made since

What in fuck are you doing? Where do you think you are? How did you get to be a mod on /a/? This isn't fucking /h/, this isn't /e/, it's not an imagedumping board for retarded children.

Is this not supposed to be a new /a/, free of moot's shit? Why the fuck are you defending contentless shitpost threads?

You never came back with a ruling on why this kind of shit is being tolerated. If you're going to take the /a/ name, then treat the board like a proper replacement for /a/ instead of a shitpost board for crossboarders and underage. If you're not going to do that, then don't call your board /a/, so that maybe we can get a proper replacement and /a/nons won't show up, take one look at the board and leave forever. None of us want to go back to halfchan, but every time I've visited I've seen almost nothing but garbage, and that's nearly verbatim the response I've seen every time other people have discussed switching over from different boards / chans.

If you aren't going to try to be a proper /a/, change the name of the board so one that will can pop up. Deleting my posts, which are not violating the rules, not dubspamming, simply saging and replying to people explaining why what they are doing is shitposting, is completely out of line.

If you want your board filled with illiterate redditors and shitposting, that's fine, it's your board. But give the /a/ name back to /a/, it isn't yours and you're just ruining things for all of us by keeping it like this.

Since the owner of 8/jp/ is an autist, that wants it to be a "2D" version of /b/. How about we allow Visual Novel threads, Touhou threads, and other things considered to be a part of "Otaku Culture" but not anime to increase posting and content?
Just an idea.

Goodbye cuck /a/.

So apparently I wanted to talk about the original Dragon Ball and literally the first post in my thread was "stop posting", to which I responded appropriately and told him to make some criticism instead of stupid shit. Next post is "stop posting" again, to which I responded eat shit because this is fucking ridiculous.

A few minutes later my thread is deleted and I am banned for 24 hours because someone shitposted on my thread. Alright /a/, if these are your rules consider another person to badmouth your shitty board and to leave it forever. No seriously, I should had at least posted some actual offensive shit if you get triggered so badly when I defend my thread from shitposters. You do it for free cuck faggots.

Is there a limit on board tags? Shouldn't you add a tag or two that makes it official that /jp/ and /a/ are together again? I guess otaku might cover that, but it's something to think about

Stop killing 8chan's largest anime board you horrible fucking cancer.

You are not elite chan board users you are the dregs.

If you want a secret club make a private board for you and your buddies to dress in maid outfits and fuck each other just leave the rest of 8chan out of it.
R: 9 / I: 0 / P: 17
I get that lurk more in encouraged, but it shouldn't be a 30 minute ban. That's not even something serious like asking for source on something.

I know you're new, meido, but take it less seriously for christsakes. People are going to have legitimate reason to say you hotpocket for free at this rate.

Delete the recommendations board

Please delete /rec/.

It's too slow to be useful.
R: 6 / I: 1 / P: 17
I'm beginning to agree with this post >>975. If you want a hangout board for you and your friends that's cool. But this is supposed to be /a/. I'd think you'd have a little more respect for that name than this. You're hostile, unprofessional, and seemingly trying to impose your views on everyone. This is supposed to be a fun board. How can people have fun when they have to tiptoe around what is and isn't bannable today?

This isn't halfchan/a/. It will never be what /a/ was. The past is the past and you should hold onto the old stereotypes and make this a prejudiced "Oldboy's club" that kicks out anyone who doesn't know every old meme taboo.

Yes, we all hate seeing certain types of bullshit. I hate people using the smug face. Not because they're being smug, but because it really emphasizes how dumb they are. But if I was running /a/ I wouldn't ban people for doing it. Because /a/ is more than you. It's more than me. It's all of us. And we all have to get along or we won't have a home anymore.

So please. Write up a definitive set of rules, not based on your personal preferences, but for what's best for the board, and stick to it. Give 10 second warning bans explaining why they're being banned. You'd be amazed how little work you'd have to to if the most relevant rule being broken wasn't just labeled "shitposting" And you even made a 2a "I trust the users to understand what shitposting is. I cannot begin to teach you board etiquette, so if you have any doubts, I suggest you lurk more and familiarize yourself with it." Really? Why even bother saying anything. Do you know how this reads to me? "We can ban you for no reason"

Don't expect people to know what you consider shitposting. Lurking won't help people all the posts are deleted anyway. If you have to ban leave it public so other's can learn.

Tripfagging

This morning I was banned from /a/ for one day with only motivation that I was tripfagging.

Whatever tripfags are liked here or not, it's written absolutely nowhere on the rules, neither general or /a/ rules, that it's forbidden to tripcode. If I'm not wrong it's even possible for the board owner to deactivate tripcode if for whatever reasons he don't want tripfags.

I'm not here to make my unban request going faster (and honestly it's a 1 day ban, I can wait), I'm here because of the following questions :

1. Why am I banned while I did not break any rules ?
2. Even if it was a rule, why directly a ban and not a simple warning at first ?
3. Why my post has been deleted ? I wasn't even shitposting, it was an OC on the "Write an anime plot" thread (and I can copy past it here if needed, because hopefully I saved it on my laptop before posting).
4. If I'm true and it's possible to deactivate tripcode, why not activate this option ?
5. If it has been decided somewhere that tripfagging is forbidden, why isn't it on the rules ? Enforcing a rule which isn't displayed isn't the good way to do.

Pic related are my ban, and the rules at the moment I saw the ban.

I'd like to have answers, because I don't want 8ch /a/ to become as shitty as halfchan/a/. That's also why I made a thread on /ameta/ about it here instead of just using the appeal function, to have the answers publicly available.

From the few I know meido-sama is a good guy who think before act, maybe it's a board volunteer who made this ban, but I have nothing to prove (or invalidate) this.

I browsed gamergate and v today, for the first time in a month. it is depressing how it is so faster than /a/, /m/, /am/, /baka/ etc. weeb boards

I think we need some anime board of our own where meta cancer is encouraged and we can post "Cross ange is EPIC since Sjw hate it, and BOOBIES!". I suggest /animegate/, or # fansubgate. we can also dig up dox on anime reviewers or herkz

The alternative is, we could use /weebpol/, but I do not think any of us wants weebpol to be cluttered with gooblyguck garbage.
