Ahayweh, and welcome to the /a/ meta containment and demoralization facility /ameta/!

If you are here to complain about a ban, please remember to include an archive link/screencap of the thread in question. Thank you!

Before anyone asks I'm the OP of the r/a/dio thread and just deleted it myself since it was about to become a meta shitstorm.

b10fcf No.2251

It's alright. The threads have been getting unbearably circlejerky anyway.

Alright I can calm my autisimal rage. sanaefag here by the way and yeah the circlejerks are getting a bit bad even I'll agree that we are getting /r9k/ ish.


b10fcf No.2253

>>2252

Well, I guess I could have been a bit more subtle. I should probably have told you guys to stop circlejerking before banning the first two to start posting in the usual style, even if it was only for 30m.

Sorry for that. I'll show some restraint next time.


2aa99b No.2255

>>2253

>I should probably have told you guys to stop circlejerking before banning

Yeah.

If there is going to be changes to R/a/dio thread rules (or rather it's exceptions to them) they need to be clearly explained beforehand. Just deleting posts or banning people for the same shit they've been doing for a dozen threads without explaining why just upsets people.

And really, what are the changes and how are they going to be enforced? Daki can't namefag? Can he still do his thing if he doesn't fill out the namefield? Are we going to just ban our avatar fags if they ever post a single image of them again? I'd just like some clarity as to whats going on.


974a03 No.2256

>>2255

In case you guys didn't catch it, which you probably wouldn't have considering how assblasted that mod must've been, Daki said in no uncertain terms that he was done with these threads. Don't know about the board.

Part of the problem is, like you said, miscommunication. Rule #10 says that namefagging is "to be avoided" if there is no purpose to it. However, he was arguably the only namefag with a purpose.

The threads were going full circlejerk and anyone could see that.

It would of course help if they weren't happening every week, but every time Claud tries to not do a thread someone fucking makes a thread anyway.

Try for some consistency, then. Structure. You know what those threads had? They had structure.

Anons spoke to one another, requested songs, received dakis, and enjoyed themselves. Then some other anons (present company included?) looked back into the abyss and remembered some of the core aspects of 4chan/8chan culture, and proceeded to attack something simply because it was nice.

The more pure something is, the more fun it is to corrupt. It's always been that way, and I won't pretend that I've skipped out on having some fun in that manner. The difference is that when I did it, anons back on halfchan were legitimately asking for it. These anons did nothing of the sort.

The only thing that really amuses me is how Sanaefag, the very same person who kept egging Nerofag on to avatarfag and post his waifu, immediately came here and furiously fellated modcock for whatever reason. The only thing better than a shitstorm is a hypocritical one, maybe with a little samefag sprinkled on top.

Bottom line? Someone just had to go out of their way to ruin harmless fun with their very own brand, which would be admirable if it weren't so fucking depressing.


75a85b No.2261

>>2260

You know this has been happening for a long time right?

r/a/dio threads walk a fine line between cancerous circlejerking and harmless fun. There's been more than once when they've had to back off making threads because people were that damn sick of them.

It's no different this time. Stop being a faggot. You don't need a thread every week.

There is a very fine line between fun and circlejerking. There is the reason why it is so fun to post "Feel so good" images or have everyone say "I'm such a higurashi fan". We can't just BAN circlejerking. Culture is impossible without repetition.

There needs to be a very carefully written rule to address this balance. Rule #10 does not cut it. We still have the ability to regurgitate the same song memes every Friday or Saturday. No rule right now touches this subject, circlejerking.

Circlejerking is like masturbating. It's fun in moderation and even better in hight repetition but you eventually reach a point that leaves you tired with a headache. A state of endless refractory period.


40e3fd No.2265

No it's all right. r/a/dio was always full of cancerous circlejerking and blogging. It really doesn't belong here.

Though you always can make a board to talk about it, so no harm lost


0723a2 No.2266

>>2265

That's another weird thing. R/a/dio threads are and will always be circlejerky. If that kind of shit is not allowed, then why the hell is it hosted weekly here? Again there needs to be some kind of rule clarification. Otherwise people are gonna start bawwing at how their favorite namefaggot DakiAnon left again.


40e3fd No.2267

>>2266

It's pretty clear that r/a/dio thread posters are just coming to /a/ only to get in their circlejerk threads, not for any other reason. Why it's tolerated even now, I have no clue.

Having a r/a/dio board that listed in /a/'s bar is the best solution for everyone involved.


0723a2 No.2268

>>2267

While I agree and that would let loose all nameniggers on their own board, this is a naive approach to the problem and is exactly what we feared for 8/a/. More separatism.


40e3fd No.2269

>>2266

In fact, I just checked /am/, and they're saying they'd rather host r/a/dio on /am/ from now on, so it's really all for the best

>>2268

These kinds of things happen. It's not like they were coming to actually post in threads besides /r/adio, so it's not like /a/ will suffer for it


0723a2 No.2270

>>2269

>so it's not like /a/ will suffer for it

Right so the site should just change its name to r/am/dio because nobody on /a/ wants them. Pathetic solution. The ambiguity of the meidos makes me mad.


75a85b No.2271

>>2269

>In fact, I just checked /am/, and they're saying they'd rather host r/a/dio on /am/ from now on, so it's really all for the best

This is not up to /am/ to decide, nor is it up to our meidos, or even any single person within r/a/dio.

Each individual DJ makes their threads wherever they want to make them. Claud makes them on 8/a/ because he wants to make them there. Same for Chizu. Eku sticks with Meguca because that's where he wants to stay.

If you want to say r/a/dio isn't allowed that's fine, but don't expect the DJs to move to /am/ because "that's where they belong". That's not how this works. Saturdays went without a thread for over a year.


40e3fd No.2272

>>2271

>nor is it up to our meidos

If you say so.


75a85b No.2273

>>2272

I'm saying, it's not up to the meidos to say the threads should go on /am/ or a new board. The most they can do is say they don't go on /a/. That is completely within their power to do so, if they want it.

Not that they do. They just asked people to tone down the avatarfagging and namefagging.

And again, maybe next time we're told to give it a week's rest, we'll actually fucking listen.

75a85b No.2276

>>2275

I'm not saying it was the meidos that deleted the goddamn thread.

Although what most people are upset about was Dakianon getting banned. And that was definitely the meidos.

Also I think you're under the impression I dislike r/a/dio, which couldn't be farthest from the truth. But it's undeniable it has a tendency to devolve into cancer. Taking a break every other time from having said threads is good.

What would you rather have? A monotonous repetition of the same shit every week, or actual fun every other week? Novelty is a good thing.


c601ee No.2277

File: 1430639070445.jpg (78.4 KB, 545x345, 109:69, image.jpg)

And here's a tip how the site works:

>individual makes a board and has ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY over its moderation and rules

>if people like his set of rules they gather up around and he board is pushed on the top

>if board's community disagree with set rules they either discuss with the board owner to modify the rules and if he doesn't agree the whole community can move the fuck out make a replacement board that will quickly replace the current one and drown the board owner in his obscurity

So if you faggots are so distressed about meidos doing their fucking jobs and enforcing community agreed rules you have the absolute freedom to fuck off to /am/ or make your own board and make /a/'s popularity nosedive.


0723a2 No.2278

>>2276

>A monotonous repetition of the same shit every week, or actual fun every other week?

To be brutally honest, DakiAnon was banned justly but the reasoning was not communicated. Here he is blatantly inciting excitement and asking for replies. At that moment, he isn't even giving people dakis, merely provoking others. The only logical reply to this is "WOW OMG DAKI YOU ARE TEH COOLEST".

Then of course he gets all assblasted from the ban and replies with his oh so sad farewell with a hint of suicide. Wouldn't be the first time he pulls this card.

Thoughts?


75a85b No.2285

>>2284

Actually he's saying he has more money he's willing to buy Dakis with.

Most of the time his first few posts are actually related. It's as the thread devolves that they stop being related to the Daki shit.

I don't see why you wouldn't expect an anon that claims he's suicidal to be just a bit of an attention whore. He's either a drama queen and then it makes sense, or he's actually depressed and a little bit of attention helps stave off the misery. It depends on your point of view of him.

The circlejerk builds up as time passes and gets progressively worse until it reaches critical mass of cancer.

Taking breaks helps deal with that issue.


0d0550 No.2331

>>2325

Ehh it was definitely getting worse over time, last week was particularly bad, something really did need to be done. the problem was when people found out about it by being banned. From >>>/a/229626 the idea was the change would be announced in the thread first so that people could know about it, but none of the people who would've said something actually did.

The mental picture I have is of HM running around cleaning up after and apologizing profusely (read: sumimasen, sumimasen!) on behalf of the other maids. Thing is, even the clumsy maid schtick stops being cute when half your good plates are broken. HM needs to control his kouhais better already.


be7d23 No.2429

In preparation for the thread today, I thought it'd be good to clarify the situation here. Last week was a failure in communication I'd rather avoid seeing a repeat of, so in the form of a Q&A session with myself:

>Is the r/a/dio banned now?

No, of course not.

>Is avatar/namefaggotry banned?

It already was, however we were turning a blind eye to what at first glance appeared to be harmless fun. This was a mistake on our part, encouraging breaking anonymity for social reasons is a bad idea. Rule 10 exists for good reason, and will be impartially enforced in the future.

>Are the three anons in question banned?

No. However, going forwards the existing rules will be applied fairly and consistently to everyone, as they should have been from the start. Rule 8 remains in effect; complaints should be directed to this thread.
