Well guys, it's been a good few days. We shot up to 29 unique posters. Yes I have been checking, I am that sad. I promised myself I would make this thread when we hit page 2.

I decided to change the css theme because this blue default is fugly. Thanks to /g for pointing me towards the one they use:
https://github.com/7185/8chan-tomorrow
If you want adjustments made or want to recommend a different default theme then let me know.

If you fancy being a mod then send me an e-mail. There will be no bans, NO BANS, made by mods. If you are banned, e-mail me. All posts are backed up at 8archive.moe, so nothing deleted is lost forever, however we don't appear on there just yet. The "job" will involve coming back every once in a while to check we are not getting flooded. And also prune posts that break the only rule, no proprietary games. Inane comments are permitted, unless way way off topic. This is posted here for users as much as it is for future mods.

Lastly, board shilling. I have shilled pretty hard to give the community a good start. Starting threads on boards for discussion about how free software licences can apply to the video game industry and linking back to /lv. Seemed pretty harmless to me but the owner of /tech had this to say: "If I catch you advertising your board again, I won't be so lenient." Regardless of how much I enjoyed that conversation I am going to give the shilling a rest to see how low our poster count drops to. However please continue to recommend /lv as much as you like, I have not given up.

Play games and love life.

So are you telling me that if there is a game related discussion on /tech/ and people rightfully point to /v/ but discussion involves OSS games and since /v/ doesn't understand free software and will shit on it OP (rightfully) doesn't want to go there, I come and shill:

/v/ is cancer so we made a GNU one :^)
>>>/lv/

There is a real chance of trouble? That would be a shame.

Do you really need mods? If yes I'll write an email.

>chance of trouble
If you look at the /tech sticky it was edited yesterday, I think to add this:
>All blatant advertisements, etc.
Which seems to be as a result of me.
He has made it very clear he wants to keep his board clean. Not to worry though, I still have some tricks up my sleeve.

>Do you really need mods

No. The board is very manageable at the moment. In my experience some people like to get in early.

It's hard not to advertise your board since there's no real hub board. The filter system is nice, but most people will go to the top boards and not bother with the rest unless you make a name for yourself.

Not advertising on /tech/ is fine since half/g/ used to have problems with shilling. Maybe the board owner is afraid of that?

Also I gotta fav this board. I want to get into a bit of game development (trying to get into IT work, kek) so boards like this will always be of interest to me.

half/g/ also used to have popular threads about libre games so I don't get what his problem is.

 No.168

To do list, so I don't forget:
Clearer lines defining threads. The line just needs to be a shade lighter
Reduce the size of the huge YT thumbs, they just look out of place. Might talk to HW about that.

Ok done, although the css is causing some odd indentation issue. Too tired to fix it now.

 No.328

The hide thread link and post menu positioning was annoying the fuck out of me so I changed it. I added the changes here. Hope you guys like it. If you hate it with a passion I will remove the change.

 No.363

I just wanted to add, I don't know which one of you spoke to the guys at tech/guy9000 but thank you.

He has placed /lv in the sticky which is more than I could have hoped for. I will send him a thanks on IRC next I see him on.

CSS fixed, been not working properly for a while now. Sorry about that. Enjoy.
