Bother me here.

As of 2/15/16, current things I have on my mind:

There can be no clemency in this hell.

>Steaming movies

How: I've seen some threads on /b/ where people stream movies with a chat, we might want to use one of those.

When: Saturdays seem like the best day for that kind of thing. Users with jobs are usually off, and during the school months students don't usually have class.

What: Whatever we feel like. I'd say switch genres, maybe do themed marathons. In The Company Of Men perfectly fits the cynical tone of /grim/, so starting there might be good.

>Should the board be expanded to a horror general board

It kinda already is. As long as it fits the tone, it's welcome, so I doubt it would change much.

>Advertising

Oh, good lord. This is a tough one. Shilling /b/ will only get us so far, so maybe try advertising elsewhere. Masterchan gets a lot of users by shilling 4chan, but 4chan is full of faggots now adays, so maybe not. Word of mouth seems like the best option here. Tell people who might be interested about it; there are plenty of nihilistic bastards out there, we just have to find them. Hell, maybe do streams as advertisements for the board, going on boards like /suicide/ or /horror/ and saying "Hey faggots, /grim/ is streaming <insert movie here> come watch it." It would give us the opportunity to get the board's name out there to people who are much more likely to be interested in it.

Correction: /horror/ is dead and only has one post, so some other board.

>Streaming

Ah, I've heard of that movie; it's from the same director that did The Wicker Man kek. But cynical general like that is the definitely type of movie that I could see us streaming, in addition to 2spoopy classic horror and horror in general. I'm just trying to think of what sorts of other movies would go with In The Company of Men, if we were going to do a themed marathon.

I could also see perhaps streaming non-fictional things like documentaries. Old black and white stuff detailing the horrors of war and that kind of thing.

Saturday would work. I'm more wondering what sorts of services boards tend to use for this thing.

>Horror general

Pretty much anything horror related would fit the board, I think as long as it's good of course. Even silly gorefests like Evil Dead and Dead Alive would fit the board, since part of it is at least supposed to be goreposting. I think I'll amend the sticky to include horror general.

>Advertising

I don't doubt that there are people out there who would be interested in a board like this, if only they knew about it. The problem is finding these people, who are kind of scattered all over the place on 8chan and abroad. Aside from /suicide/, I don't know of any boards with a userbase who would generally be into this type of board, but expanding it to horror general would probably help a lot in that department.

Aside from straight-up shilling, I agree that a streaming night would probably help - hence why I brought it up. If the board is just getting advertised to people without anything being delivared, people are going to get annoyed, so anything that is tacitly advertising like telling people about a streaming night or posting OC is a good way to do this.

FYI: I haven't abandoned the board pil/grim/s. I just don't really know what the fuck to do to keep any interest in this board.

/grim/ is already niche enough without getting shouted down and dismissed as enlightened by all the stupid faggots who post on the top boards where we can even hope to get any publicity. And forget about trying to advertise to 7chan's /grim/; you'll get instantly permabanned. Yeah, I tried that. Holy fuck 7chan is a shit place.

Is anyone else still at least checking in here? Report in?

I guess it wouldn't be a proper /grim/ if it wasn't depressingly dead as fuck here ;_;7

Well you came to the right place anon. Sort of. Unfortunately, getting this place off the ground is pretty difficult - as it always is with new boards. Halloween will present some good opportunities to start advertising this place and doing movie nights, though.

hey man, i'm all in when the time comes

hell even if you're doing a movie night off-season i'd still attend

Well I very well could be streaming movies right now. Getting the motivation to do so and go on an advertising campaign by myself is the problem. Halloween will at least provide an excuse to do so.

Wordfilter everything to rattles, clicks and other skeleton noises on Halloween.

In fact pick all the shit you don't like and turn them into skeleton noises NOW.


 No.268

>>266

I fucking kek'd. I don't see any way I'd be able to filter everything on Halloween, but I hadn't even thought of adding skeleton noise filters. Mostly what I have right now are filters for variations of 3dgy because I expect that the first reaction for the uninitiated who stumble onto this board would be "ur 2 le enlightened :^))))"


 No.273

Well for halloween you could make some commonly used terms into skeleton noises.

Like "kill" into "rattle" and die/death/dead into clack.

Example

I'm going to rattle myself tonight. I wish i could rattle all those fucking cocksuckers who've driven me to this, when all of them are clack I'll rattle myself and join them in clack.

The more words you replace, the better it gets. Replace common stuff like "the", "it", "and" etc with clicks or something too.

For the rest of the year I'm not sure when skeleton noise filters would be appropriate, probably only for a few of the typical insults or something.
