Offical claims issues & discussion thread
CHECK HERE FOR CLAIMS UPDATES
So in order to sidestep any future claims miscommunication, I felt it somewhat necessary to tackle one of the more common questions that I've been
seeing over the past few months.
"Why haven't i received any response for my board claims"
1. If you sent one of those claims during the months of December 2015 and January 2016, and haven't seen a response yet, then that may be due to the recent
issues surrounding cock.li. your best bet would be to simply resend those claims.
2. It states on the claims page that "Claims emails may take up to a week to be responded to", so if you're wondering why that claim you sent in yesterday
hasn't yet gotten a response then i'd simply recommend being a bit more patient.
3. Larger boards are typically put on hold for 1 week, with an announcement in the blotter. After that initial time has passed, then a
new BO will be chosen from a selection of available emails. Existing board staff will be given preference.
4. If you notice that the board you sent a claim for is given to somebody else, then that doesn't mean anything wrong has happened. The most likely reason
for this, is that you weren't the only one to send a claims email for that board.
5. Another thing worth noting after #4 is that after a board has already been claimed, those whom have already sent in emails for said board are unlikely to
see a response or get any sort of rejection email.
6. If you neglect to set up a recovery email for that board you recently created, and you subsequently forget the log-in info for that board. Then you'll
sadly have to go through the whole claims process for that board.
7. Please remember that, as of this writing, that 8chan has nearly 10k boards and only 1 board claims manager. So it's only inevitable that you'll occasionally
have to deal with a delayed response at times.
Now if you think your specific situation isn't covered in the above, then please feel free to report it in this thread. And if you also have any thoughts relating
to 8chans current claims system, then don't hesitate to also post them in this thread.

Hello, this is nunu.
This board is for reaching the global administrators and volunteers. General 8chan Meta discussion is also welcome here.
If you have any thoughts, suggestions, or concerns related to how /operate/ is run then this is ideally the thread for that. I'd also prefer if any non-/operate/
related questions, i.e., "hey nunu, what do you think about x" stay contained within this thread.
This thread will also serve as a log of any deletions that i do on /operate/.

Pt. 1 @ >>35399 [ https://archive.is/o9GBA ]
IMPORTANT -- Regarding Claims
Due to technical difficulties, the 8chan board claims claims system went offline for a few months. Everything is back to normal now, and I have reopened claims and will only be processing claims submitted on or after February 1st to ensure requested boards are still wanted by their claimants. If you have submitted a claim request before that date, please resubmit it to claim@8chan.co. Apologies for the inconvenience.
Thanks for using 8chan!

Hi I need an operation on my prolapse - this is the right board right?
How come on some boards when you click the filename the image downloads with the original filename but on others it doesn't?
Pic related is what happens when you hover over the filename but it only does what it says on certain boards.
An example of a board where it does save with the original filename: /b/.
An example of a board where it doesn't save with the original filename: /christian/.
Is it a setting or something that the owner specifies?
Make me a global mod and I'll make your site great. Full of quality moderation and an userbase that doesn't come from reddit.

what are the rules regarding PMs? Mods within the same board can contact each other and can contact global mods if they contacted them first?
JUST
/4chon/, here
>put a text file instead with the filename of the flag, a comma, then the name of the flag
Alright, the flags got deleted again lmoa. You win, fam; let Hotwheels know I'm going to send him a zipped parcel through electronic mail if that would be easier.
I haven't touched the page since the error occurred, so if he's interested in getting to the root of the problem (even though it's only our little old board said problem is liable to affect) hopefully that will make it easier. I didn't know that I was subverting any attempts to fix this problem by uploading the flags after the error had occurred before; please excuse me - I'm a layman, I don't know much about anything.
I just have a few questions. I manually named all of the flags to what I'd like them to appear as on the board itself; do I still need a text file and if so, are there any kind of formatting constraints apart from those that the flag entry screen itself has I should be aware of? I have flags that have periods, parentheses and so on in the name ("Person of Interest - Misc. - Louis C.U.C.K."; "Character - VG - Mega Man - Gutsman's Ass", "Meme - Ow, the Edge (Fuck You!)", etc.).
I assume the files should all be in the same folder (I currently have them separated into different ones by category) as well, right? HMU Nunu.
Thanks in advance, without flagposting /4chon/ just isn't the same.
wtf is happening
ive had none of my claims for boards replied to in over a month
i emailed claim and admin about it and no response
I've had a dozen boards and now i can't access them due to technical difficulties and its like im being ignored
not only that but some of my boards have since gotten new owners so someone actively ignored my claims but went on to give preferential treatment to others
what the fuck?
ANSWER THE BOARD CLAIMS!!
HEY, FUCKFACES!! Why aren't you running your GODDAM site?

I'm glad /intl/ has been defeated
I'm glad /intl/ is dead
I'm glad they're dead, vanquished, eliminated, purged, now almost forgotten. They tried to stand athwart serious discussions, which is what 8ch was intended for, and they were literally ground to dust, /intl/ was a bug on the windshield. Our discussions and meme magic plowed on through and didn't look back.
and they still post on 8chan, serious posting that is, which of course invalidates everything they did, and they're probably reading this right now. Portugese shill made a propaganda video depicting them as innocent victims, which is a fraud: they had been raiding everyone long before their board got its shit pushed in by the whole site. In reality, /intl/ was a cancerous growth spawned by the shithole that was and remains /int/ and its Kraut overlords.
Cheers to our victory. /pol/ is as strong as ever and there is virtually zero spam/interference with the other boards discussions. Meanwhile, /intl/ is cucking themselves all over again on freech (after installing a captcha lmao), but no one is around to give a shit anymore. And what's happened? The "spam is freedumb" shtick has been dropped and they hugbox as much as anyone else :)

let me repeat that.

/n/ moderation
If you are going to "pretend" to be neutral, then stop bumplocking threads based on your individual and specific idea of what is news and what is not news. If you are going to bumplock based on feeling of "irrelevant spam" then you shouldn't allow a single crab article up right now.
There is no reason the rules should be arbitrary and applied haphazardly every week diffferent. If you are worried more mods means more abuse then you are probably more worried about being power tripping faggot and you are the faggot that is killing /n/ and stabbing 8ch in the back
Now, the ideal is no moderation but the few exceptions like deleting pornographic images and pornographic shitposting OPs
Why should a thread a related to immigrants and leftist shitting of the politcal system be bumplocked after a week while a nonews thread about pakistan or india gets to stay up for 5+ weeks?
None of the rules are clear, if there are any, and less rules are always better

Thread Bump Limit
Browsing some threads makes you realise why other chan scripts have a bump limit.
Some threads become too long and take forever to load, especially if they are filled with embedded content.
How about implementing a "more" JS script that loads the page in sections?
Not sure if that's easier or harder on the server but it will definitely improve the browsing experience.
The problem from the client perspective is that the browser does not render the stuff until the GET request is finished so I'm waiting for 5 secs before the page finally loads. If you load the first few posts and then render and then load the remaining with JS request it would be better.

Posting problems possibly to do with DNSBL
I'm having trouble posting and I think it has something to do with DNSBL
Every once in a while when I fill in a captcha and try to post, I get this ban message. It usually happens when I try to post at night
Now, the IP Address for this ban is not mine. I've never even been on /lollipop/. Yet for some reason after I've filled in a captcha for DNSBL I'm barred from posting because this other user with a dynamic IP has been banned.
My own IP is static, I'm not on a proxy/Tor. This happens even when I reset my router/IP.
I've had something similar happen to me elsewhere. DNSBL only seems to work for me for three hours even though, like I said, I'm not on Tor or behind a proxy. Sometimes after I've filled in the captcha for the bypass I'll find that, on a board with IDs, posts that were not made by me fall under my ID.
I'm just wondering if there's any solution to this problem? Whether it's the site that's fucking up or if it's something on my end? If anybody else is experiencing this problem?
>little girls in g strings waving their asses at the camera
What's the plan with /hebe/ warmrubbers? Planning to let them progress to full-blown fucking so you have a reason to clamp down on any hint of pedo content? Or is 8chan really a honeypot?
I'm a pedo myself and I disagree with the applicable laws… but those laws are being violated. Enforce DOST

Time for some tough talk. I'll be doing a livestream next weekend.
To cut to the chase, I never really had much motivation to fix up vichan. I've been thinking about my life a lot lately, and how to deal with my worsening health condition. I'm not going to lie, I did not really spend much time working on VFEC this month. My habit of procrastination has taken the better of me, which is why I haven't really worked on VFEC for about three weeks. Therefore we will be going with plan B and start 8chan from scratch using LynxChan in March. There will not be any board migrations because honestly neither me nor Stephen Lynx have the motivation to write a migration script.
(ﾉ -‿-)ﾉ ~┻━┻ ~ Goodbye vichan. With all this off my chest, I think I can finally focus on what’s more important in my life.
TOR does not fucking work
Not sure if its the disintegration of Vichan's code or whatever, but Tor has serious problems running on 8chan right now.
Basically, it can't load hardly anything, its slow as fuck and takes eons to do anything. yes yes yes, I know Tor is naturally slow, I know, but this shit is ridiculous, its pretty much unusable right now but only happens on 8chan.
look at this?
What is this?
Over a hundred IP logged?
It only registers the public ip, so if you have a dynamic ip is not a big deal
However there are many anons that don't have the option i think
The way this works should be disabled form the code
Clean up your board nunu
/intl/ shitposters are spamming it to death again and drowning out problem reports. Do your job.
Flags
/4chon/ B.O. Here again; it seems like the maximum number of flags has been drastically reduced. Any way to bring it back to where it was before the site crapped itself for four months? I've still got about 400 flags to go! Thanks in advance.
well, that was short
so after Josh bowed out, 8chan started working again
now it works as shitty as ever. I can't get hardly any fucking post through without that godamn error message and then after resending it, "flood detected, post discarded"
is it too much to ask that someone fix this fucking website?
What happened to Hotwheels?

Illegal Board(?)
/baphomet/
is it illegal? if so, why is it still up?
is it legal?
because they're saying I need to access it from Tor, and that makes me suspicious
Tell me what's up with this board, as I'm a newfag to it
Hola was an inside job remove captcha now
When we first migrated we had a few conditions :
1.no captcha
2.tor and proxy support.
3.webm supported
4.no do it for free mods
Now HW implanted a false flag event to make us run like huskies to be able to post.
Being no better than kikes who made 9/11 and the paris attacks.
Remove captcha now before we switch to infinity next.
>>5351981
all we need to do is have a simple fucking 25 page catalog, and instead of the slow thread killing "10 replies by page 5) limit just make it 1 fucking reply by page 10 limit, then spambot threads all die at page 5, and we have a 20 page buffer
how hard is that?
Cycial threads on /b/
Why aren't the pony and pedo threads forever cycial (or however you're supposed to spell it)? That way you can just hide it once and for all.
Also they won't have to go through the trouble of making a new thread everytime.
God I hope this thread doesn't get ignored by the mods like all the others.

What the fuck hotwheels? I thought you fixed this! Did you put Josh's code back in?
What are the most rulecucked boards?
/pol/ and /a/?
Let's raid /furry/ together.
Also, why is 8chan a broken piece of shit to keep this post on topic.
8CHAN HAS CONSTANT ERRORS AND IS A BROKEN PIECE OF SHIT
We should have the default /s4s/ fortunes as a board option and a way to make custom fortunes as well in the board options
Use default fortunes []
Use custom fortunes (List below) []
Also, the title was clickbait.
Your Fortune: I better not tell you.
How do I delete other peoples' threads on other peoples' boards on 8chan?
I want to delete the pedo threads on /b/.
Post yfw the GG boards are all out of the top 25
Show the top boards as default please.
The experiment didn't work and it had no effect on less popular boards.
Are you purposely killing off boards?
Why does all of dud's irc friends run boards into the ground?
First it was somanyanons with /int/ and now this guy with /b/
Can you please stop fucking shit up Hotwheels?
The new BO of /b/ is gonna have a nervous breakdown soon
So now we're officially 4chan?
I posted a valid point on /b/ that pedos posting outside the pedo threads don't get banned.
I posted pony picture outside the pony thread to illustrate the point.
Not only did I get banned for pony posting but I got banned for ban evasion.
That's 4chan straight up.
You fucking mod cunts have ruined this site.
ALL mods must be removed
there is no good mod on all of 8chan

>tfw hotwheels left
Damn it! This site could've STAYED perfect! :'(
HOTWHEELS
You made a halfass apology.
You didn't even know /sp/ was a test by Josh in infinity next
We were lab rats and then we were without home. You betrayed us. We lIke our BO. You apologied foE the wrong reason.
Make /sp/ stable again and we will have da owl here.
Captcha
Now that HW is working on the site again I'd like to offer a suggestion regarding the site's captcha policy that I hope you'll consider implementing along with VFEC
As you probably know we've been under attack by a particularly autistic child porn spammer since inception. This degenerate saucer tits babydick retard faggot fuck seems to be able to hit every board on this site with impunity, with nothing done to stop it so far outside of a token 24 hour captcha that, once solved, gives any user (or their script) free reign to the nearly 10,000 boards on this website.
My proposal that I'd been trying to encourage Josh to adopt with Next is a 24 hour captcha per board This would make it so that this pathetic creature would have to manually submit his shit on every single board that he intends to post it instead of being able to rely on a robot to do the work for him.
This would represent a slightly elevated inconvenience to the entirety of the userbase as a whole vs the 24 hours captcha, but it is nonetheless preferable, I believe, to the Next model which was to be a captcha every 10 posts or every 3 hours.
At least it would be preferable regarding this particular problem - however, If for example users are creating boards as a vehicle to spam the site with junk in some kind of effort to increase server costs or eat up bandwidth or something I can understand a "per post" captcha of some sort also being desirable to supplement it.
am rolling on the floor rofling tbh
WHAT THE FUCK??!!
>send board claim
>it didn't work
WHY
Banners
Every time i go to setting i cant change the banner it keeps telling me its currently disabled?
8chan still taking a shit
oi, just thought you faggots ought to know about the weird shit still going on in heavily populated boards. as you can see from pic related, I literally saw a thread replicate itself mid thread.
"If you don't like it, just make your own board"
Part of the problem with, "If you don't like it, just make your own board" is that the incumbent board with more users will label your board as a shill/intl/goon/boogieman board, and their BO will shit all over your board.
>Just make your own board
>/vvv/
>/svidya/
>/polpol/
>/intl/
>/ggrevolt/
Every single time those boards are shit on and shilled heavily against and they don't stand a chance. I think /intl/ and /ggrevolt/ lasted the longest of the alt boards, but neither of them are in the top 25 now, nor are the boards they broke away from.
A major part of the problem is most people are apathetic, and they don't care when the moderation is out of control. They'll keep quiet about it because they don't want to get banned too, they'll go check out the alternative board, but it's a dead zone with maybe 1 new comment every hour, and they'll just leave 8chan altogether.
I think their should be tools to oust bad moderators and BOs, or maybe have the BO agree to the rules of the community they BO for, and if they go against those rules, then they should be fired.
Mark, imkampfy, Acid Man, just to name a few who should be removed and are constantly power tripping, and not for the lulz, but for the sensation they get in their pants over having this minuscule authority over the world.
I mean, I understand it's free speech and what ever, but what good is free speech going to do me in my newly created board with 1 UID? These moderators and BOs are against free speech, and no new board will ever survive against them.
People on /christian/ feel their BO doesn't exist
It seems their volunteer is pretending to be the BO

userJS/userCSS Thread
Can we get one thread for all custom css/js that people have implemented? I didn't see any listed on /operate/, i know there used to be a couple floating around
please share any custom css/js you have added to 8ch.net. include comments so people know what it does, for example, a js snippet that would go in the [user JS] section:
/* ----------set all pages as default -------*/
if (active_page == 'index' && document.location.hash != '#all') {
document.location.hash += '#all';
}
implements "infinite" scrolling (though 8ch's version of it is slow and buggy)
for css which would go on the [theme] section of the options, for example:
/* video element - fixes webm hover */
div video {
top: 50px !important;
left: 50px !important;
position: absolute;
}
which moves the webm hovered video to top left and lowers it (since the existing webm hover cuts off the top if you have the board list on)
Any chance that .swf files playable straight from the site - without the need to save them and start them manually - will ever come back?
The Official YFW not Josh thread™
You probably noticed the site is running better now.
Want to know why?
Remember how Josh before pitching the backend rewrite was just working on the site in his spare time for free?
Remember how he made a few features like the board list?
Well the board list was the case for the site fucking falling apart.
13:40:16 ~copypaste last night i turned off post stats before going to bed
13:40:20 ~copypaste that's why everything is zeroed
13:40:30 ~copypaste i found the reason for the original complaint [/v/ takes a long time to post to]
13:40:33 ~copypaste get ready for this
13:42:04 ~copypaste inserting into the board_stats table was taking many seconds
13:42:10 ~copypaste it was getting worse with more and more records
13:42:27 ~copypaste and because board_stats never prunes its historical record, combined with josh's inability to focus on database design
13:43:01 ~copypaste we all assumed that it was just the original reason i started the search for a new IB software, was making things worse
13:43:02 ~copypaste not so
13:43:31 ~copypaste not only did Josh fail at Next, but his incompetent post stats patch degraded preformance over time silently because josh sucks at DB design
13:43:33 ~copypaste what the fuck.
13:43:59 ~copypaste that's why things continued to get worse even with 8chan's user count decreasing
13:44:05 ~copypaste because the post stats table continued to grow
13:44:18 ~copypaste josh's insistence that algorithmic complexity did not apply to him was…wrong.
13:44:33 ~copypaste this is becoming shakesperean tragedy levels of sad.
13:44:35 maksev so basically
13:44:38 maksev hidden grenade
13:44:45 ~copypaste more like hidden balloon
13:44:46 maksev how fun i do so love db faults
13:44:56 ~copypaste or like hidden frog in slowly heating up water
13:45:01 Reveton josh is a moron. big O is hardly even computer science, it's just a basic understanding of how many operations you're doing
13:45:07 ~copypaste you've all noticed posting is better now with no stats right?
13:45:08 maksev picture a hentai where the girl is constantly force fed water up her ass until assplosion copypaste

Does it make sense to create a new board or is 8chan kill and not useful anymore?

>On this board, to prevent raids the number of threads that can be created per hour is limited. Please try again later, or post in an existing thread.
This means the total number of threads? I can't imagine a better way to kill /b/. People come to a chan above all to have a voice, and they're not inclined to hang around and patiently try over and over. They'll just fuck off to elsewhere.
Our front page at /pone/ hasn't updated for 9 hours. Christ, we only have two pages, you'd think they'd at least stay updated? Meanwhile /v/ is lagging by about 10 minutes. Bit unfair no?
Also how did shit get to the point where 8chan is nearly unusable, considering our userbase has been shrinking and the site has apparently been under active development?
Features we aren't getting in Infinity Never
okay, it seems that infinity next is actually infinity never unfortunately.
There are many feature suggestions that were pushed off for infinity next, so I think people should post them in this thread.
/operate/ was pretty dead since everyone was waiting for next, but now that next is never coming I think its pretty relevant now.
I had a couple of ideas that I didn't think were necessary to bitch about until now, since next would have fixed.
I don't have anything major to suggest. These are things I think that can be fixed now and would make using this site more tolerable.
Please don't tell us to wait for vfec or lynx. I don't think many people trust it to come any time soon considering next, and they can both fail.
And if you can't actually fix it given the current software, please say that too.
Some suggestions:
MAKE THE CATALOG THE DEFAULT PAGE FOR BOARDS
there's no point having the index being the default front page right now. It's just one more click.
I think this should actually be an option for the user, and maybe a board option.
MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO CREATE THREADS FROM THE CATALOG
I think we should have had this feature before, but it was probably pushed off to next.
Considering everyone has to use the catalog to see threads, it makes sense to be able to create threads from there.
ADD BACK EARLY 404 TO /B/
spam is extremely rampant there, and I think early 404 was a nice solution to it.
There have also been a lot of threads that automatically 404, and they take up space too.
I don't want to make /b/ mods too rule cucky, and they really seem to give zero shits about the spam, so I think this could help without having them do much.
There's shit I've forgotten about, but I'll add that later. Someone should probably make a list.
>try to post
>every attempt results in a huge error message
What the fuck IRCwheels, you were supposed to have fixed this.
[Last 50 Posts]
Am I crazy, or did the option to view the last 50 posts in a thread disappear sometime this weekend?
Daily Reminder. Josh is a scheming Jew who is storing all of your information. Don't trust him.
I can't believe you fucks still haven't nuked /hebe/, or at least kicked out the BO!!
Fuck, you niggers, get a Global up on >>>/hebe/ right the fuck now. This shit is so fucking far out of control it's unreal. The BO is a power-hungry shithead who is never around and only logs in to keep his seat of power! He doesn't give a shit, he fires every mod who actually does shit, and he needs to be forcibly replaced, or this will always be a CP-infested shithole. It has also met the requirements for nuking MANY times by having CP left up for days, even weeks.
Scaling plan
Has an idea like this been looked into to solve some of 8ch's problems?
- Use Redis patch, or similar in-memory cache
- Threads and posts only exist as JSON.
- Don't build pages ever again. API endpoints are the replacement.
- Turn frontend into a semi-SPA. Starting off, it can just be a really shitty document.write() mess where a giant string containing HTML is built up from the JSON. This will give it 1-to-1 parity with existing 8ch, and will also be quite fast, though not very maintainable. Can be improved later, perhaps to use a hipster library like Vue or Mithril or React.
- localStorage, maybe Web SQL, is used to locally cache thread JSON, and is updated when the API reports a new post or index/catalog change
- Server's job is to manage cache and respond with updates when there are any
- Could serve only the new posts, or re-serve the entire JSON document for a thread. Not sure which would be faster/better.
Downsides:
- Have to add a fair bit more code to handle caching and make sure cache expiry and refresh is done sanely
- Have to write a bit more JS
- Large threads may load a little more slowly for users since clients will be loading them dynamically, especially on mobile and old devices
- Doesn't really fix other fundamental issues with vichan, but those can be fixed at a more relaxed pace in the future once scalability is improved
- Trading disk IO for frequent cache refresh polling and more concurrent connections (if written in nginx config language or Lua, this can be done insanely fast)
- Tinfoil hatters who refuse to enable Javascript or whitelist it here won't be able to use the site. Maybe the old HTML file building could be a fallback here.
Upsides:
- Scaling should be far easier and cheaper. No more 5 trillion .html files lying around. No more Twig, except for the mod pages and a few minor things.
- Can lead to a much nicer UI once the SPA features are fleshed out
For additional performance, you could bypass PHP and have nginx do most or all of the cache management and API response for you.
I don't know if this is the best option. I think a full rewrite or switching to Lynxchan would be a big mistake. I think a rewrite is maybe not a bad idea for the distant future, but PHP and Laravel weren't the right choices. vichan's internals suck, but in terms of features it's the most mature software out there, and the code isn't so abhorrent that it can't be hacked on (unlike Kusaba X or something).
I posted these suggestions during Infinity Next's announcement thread a while back and said it seemed like a bad idea, but was largely ignored.
I'd be willing to help with a patch to add some of these features if HW shows serious interest in the idea.
/leftypol/ is a blank page
catalog.html vs index.html
1) I've noticed in the last month/couple of months that only the "catalog view" gets promptly updated. Very often the standard view doesn't sort the threads correctly (as per last bump). index.html may show deleted/pruned/banished threads and sometimes only catalog.html shows really recent threads.
This happen both on the clearnet and on the Tor version of the site.
2) Also. Sometimes (I've noticed this only posting via .onion) a "successfully submitted" post doesn't show up nor bumps the thread until a new post is made to the same thread. This is a variant of the "double posting" issue (when a "probably not posted" post was, in fact, successfully submitted but not showing, and the user was invited to post again)
Here's one I haven't seen before.
Fatal error: Call to a member function reset() on a non-object in /srv/http/inc/functions.php on line 1930

So where does one go to see what the admins and such are up to? Is there a twitter or something else where we can check the status of everything going on? It'd be nice to hear from Hotwheels or another admin again. I feel like ever since the update attempts all the admins have gone to ground or something.
Is there a website, a blog, or some kind of easier way to figure out, essentially, what's going on with 8chan and Infinity Next?
Is the transfer still happening or are things on hold while you guys bugsplat? Tell me o, great wizards, where can I get actual information about this kind of stuff, preferable from HotWheels himself?

8CHAN WAS NEVER GOOD
8chan was never an outstanding site.
It was okay in 2013/2014, but still not that great.
Sure, back in 2014, I really liked the idea of creating boards, jerking off on /furry/, talking to fun/smart/dumb people who at least had a triple-digit IQ, and /pol/ and /intl/ not being EVERYWHERE!
It's pretty bad when a mere way of life which had been falsely shadowed as great when it was already bad goes to terrible in just a few years or less.
/pone/ is dead
The board /pone/ is currently returning a blank page for me. Other boards seems to be not affected. Is the problem my end or experienced by anybody else?
WEBM THUMBNAIL REMOVAL AND NO MORE MP4
>tries to stop le evil exploit boogeyman
>fails
I'm off to (cancer site) again, because it's still better than 8shills.
you are trash, just drop the Infinity Next hoax, it's over, everyone is beyond done with this Chinese fire drill, all you have done is divide the community, causing 8chan to lose even more users.
you've never really explained to the community why 8chan ran perfectly well for over two years, and continued doing so LONG after the Gamergate influx came and went, and with the bottom suddenly dropping out.
My opinion? You deliberately sabatoged the site to force your "Next" cred on us, which you then wanted to use for shekels in China. Face it, you have a bumass life, its going to stay that way, and you ruined the only good thing in it.
and before you go, make sure you shoot the Dud to death and video tape it for us.
and BTW, no one ever wanted this site and everyone hates the layout. You're a real faggot.
What the fuck is this bullshit?
There's not even a link in my thread.
Does anyone else suspect that the cp spammer has figured out a way to bypass the captcha?
I don't think it's far fetched to assume the spammer has found a hole in the software
>$12K
WEBM threads are fucked
Is anyone else having problems with webm threads causing massive memory leaks? I've tested this both in Chrome and Firefox - whenever I open a thread full of webms, memory usage keeps increasing quickly until the browser crashes. Go on /v/ or /b/ to test it, they usually have a webm thread up at all times.
I am not having similar problems with webm threads on halfchan or 420chan. If there's anyone else having similar problems with webm threads on 8ch then that would lead me to conclude there's a problem with the site, and could you please fix it? lol who am I kidding that'll never happen - no more webm threads for me I guess.
I'm really starting to reach a point where I don't care about this site anymore. Everything is broken, good reasons for coming here are becoming less and less, and it just feels like a chore. It's bumming me out.
I hope you're aware that for every day you remain on the current software (whatever the fuck is called) you're bleeding users.
Boards don't work, you have to use the catalog, posting doesn't work properly and the site in general works pretty slow.
Maybe giving 12k to a highschool dropout wasn't such a good idea. I hope you have a backup plan and are financially stable Hotwheelz because nobody will donate again after the Infinity Next shitstorm.
we're sick of the site not working
it feels a lot like it's broken on purpose so people like next
i wont even be mad at this point I just want to know.
what's the deal?

1. Fredrick Brennan is a disabled man who has led a life painful in every sense of the word.
2. Brennan’s history and relationship with chan culture most probably led him to his current full-time job, playing host to illegal content on 8chan.
3. Hotwheels has done a lot of media appearances, for someone who claims not to care what news agencies make of him or his site.
4. The rules of 8chan explicitly tell board volunteers to “delete CP” on the boards, i.e. purge evidence from the 8chan servers.
5. Hotwheels will plead ignorance about the content, as if his board mods and he are not well aware of its existence (the mods are always asleep.)
6. If you report illegal content to Brennan, he might post your IP address.

Why does the irc cabal hate /ints/ so much? Are they really afraid of the power of 10-15 shitposters, or is this only being used as a falseflag to add rules to more boards like /b/? If you check all the "/ints/ bunker sites" /ints/ is nowhere to be found, they are all still here. Which means they are users of this site that are purposefully being chased away. I said a long time ago on this board that something would have to be done to fix the tension between the site and /ints/. It seems the staff is more content to create more tension and destroy the site to try to chase away 10-15 people. Why?

No seriously man, where are you? You used to be pretty active across the site, but now there's radio silence. Half the stuff we know about the migration is through logs posted from an IRC channel that most people cannot even access.

Hi guys, I just made another alternative to 8chan:
Can we just have the feature of being able to post new threads directly from the catalog?
Feedback to CatChan
I released CatChan script which equipped a virtual board function.
It still needs to be improved. However, you can try to taste it from BETA.
https://raw.github.com/Dogman8/CatChan/develop/CatChan.user.js
Easiest way to use:
1. Click 'settings'.
2. Click 'load default', '(I want to … now)' and any of '(…for 8chan)'. RECOMMEND TO USE SMALLEST SET UP FOR TRY IT NOW.
3. Reload.
4. After 20 secs delay, it starts to scan site, generates virtual boards and show them. If you choose entire site, it takes about 30 mins. So I recommend you to use smallest setup for 50 boards, this takes about 5-10 mins.
5. Click #XXX to on/off virtual boards. They are toggle buttons, so you can select multiple boards.
6. After 5 mins delay, auto updater will run and color tags if they have new posts. Favicon is also changed, and popup shows number of unread replies to you, unread replies, threads which have unread replies, threads in the virtual board, boards to which these threads belong respectively.
How it works:
You can add tags to a thread when you post #XXXX in your comment. CatChan scans all posts in all thread in all boards, aggregate, and shows it in catalog. Tags are bumped and discarded in usual manner. Details are configurable.
Virtue of virtual board:
You can choose which thread belong to which board. And also threads can belong to multiple boards. You can make virtual boards at any time. This gives extreme flexibility to threads. Threads can move between boards at any time virtually.
Virtual boards function is a super-set of 'physical boards', which is used now. If you limit max num of tags to 1; threads can only inherit a tag which has the same name of physical board. In this limitation, virtual board system is equivalent to physical board system. Virtual board system is a search engine by user tags simply.
Note:
Other information are available in below, but they are obsolete.
https://8ch.net/scriptcdc/res/59.html
https://8ch.net/scriptcdc/res/61.html
https://8ch.net/scriptcdc/res/63.html
https://8ch.net/scriptcdc/res/58.html
Status:
Now the script needs to be improved, but you can try it. I'll release more stable version in this weekend, but still it needs to be brushed up. I had already debugged it and I know the problem, but it'll take months to improve.
Feedback or bug reports are welcome. You can post it in lainchan if you want.
https://lainchan.org/%CE%BB/res/10247.html
Compatibility:
It works well in lainchan and 4chan.
It works but too slow in 8chan.
I haven't debugged in Krautchan.

So what exactly is baphomet?
art for the 23rd (original art only)
THE CONTEST HAS CONCLUDED, ALL 11 SUBMISSIONS INSIDE
Hello
As some of you may know October 23rd is going to be 8chans 2nd birthday. So copypaste/hotwheels wanted to solicit some possible art from the community for that day.
So if you want to help, then please post your art in this thread. Now if you aren't an artist or anything, you can still help by posting possible ideas for the final art piece.
To keep things interesting, the winning art piece will also be able to choose a board of their choice to be featured for a week.
If you need any art related help, then we have an art board and resource hub:
https://www.8ch.net/loomis/hub.html
As well as a megaupload of stuff from /loomis/:
https://mega.nz/#F!es1BSKQR!spODyd0iaQmMelGA2GscFw
Note: Since this will be featured on the homepage, the larger the image the better.
As requested by copypaste, i'll be keeping this thread fairly focused. So apologies if any off-topic posts get deleted.
Note: I don't typically touch posts on /operate/, So this isn't a regular occurrence. Also all deletions in this thread will be later posted in the general /operate/ thread.
EDIT #1
-This piece should ideally be an original piece.
-It must include the 8chan logo somewhere.
EDIT #2
-The deadline for the artwork is October 23rd.
EDIT #3
-the piece should also mention that it's 8chans 2nd birthday somewhere.
EDIT #4
-Further clarifying "edit #3", the 2 should be clearly visible in the piece itself. Essentially something like "happy 2nd birthday" rather than just "happy birthday".
-Things such as simple photoshop mashups (simply putting the logo & birthday mention on a random image) , post screencaps, and other non-drawn low effort works are unlikely to be chosen. And may be subject to deletion.
Let me know if you have any questions regarding these rules.
Captcha is broken to the max.
>you only need to complete the captcha every 24 hours
>captcha has expired 4 minutes into posting
Come on, man. Fix this… I'm not even using a VPN.
MODS ARE ALLOWING CP ON BOARDS

You have no idea how that feels. Your blood turns to ice and you don't know how to react. I still don't know how to react, come to think of it.
Removal of illegal content is too slow
Yes, 8chan is not moderated and whatever. But that does not excuse leaving illegal content up for too long. CP, for example, is spammed on every board and it usually takes too long for it to get deleted, even after filing a Global Report.
This issue needs to be addressed promptly.
Why is /b/ not updating?
Based Lynxchan
How do we convince the genetic dud to adopt based Lynxchan? /ints/ is adopting it on freech.net and the developer is helping which is a nice change of pace.
Global vol intervention on /pol/ NOW
There's multiple CP spam threads on /pol/ which is under a raid at the moment and the mods are doing NOTHING about it.

>I destroyed /gg/ because niko is a terrible mod and helped send the users over to /gamergate/ because drybones is known to be an experienced individual, then blade gave the board away because he was sick of the drama bullshit that you guys produce, and once again I HELPED 8chan make a new gamergate board by redirecting users to /gamergatehq/, which leads me to my next bit.

It was robek, radicalpolio, pink, blue, white, black, LA, etc. robek and I usually lead shit to where it needed to be, and I learned a fuckton from him. unfortionately he burnt out. but I'm still here making the calls and I'm still running one of the best and actually competent hubs for gamergate discussion.
/ints/'s NBO here.
Out of compassion for the Hotdud I've decided to block Bui's IP and stop the spamming. Any goons who might be contrary to that should appeal here.
I TOLD YOU SO
Why is pic related showing up and lagging out for like over 10 seconds on every page load? Only started yesterday.
Has anybody ever hacked an 8chan board?
waiting for infinitydev.org......
Almost all the pages keep waiting for a file called devtimer.js on infinitydev.org, which never loads and just holds up loading the rest of the pages.
If anyone is wondering why 8chan is slow lately.
why does 8chan allow FBI snitches to be Board Owners?
He's admitted or implied that he has reported several people who use 8chan to the FBI, none of which have been involved in any crimes.
I'm appalled by this. As someone who has donated to N.T. Technology, which is run by Jim, this type of behavior is enough for me to cancel any future contributions.
This person has used his position as a board owner to collect data on users and report them to the FBI for crimes they most likely never committed. I've looked into a few of the people implicated, and there is no evidence any of them were even involved. I've asked on /v/, /gamergatehq/ and /ggrevolt/, and the only "evidence" provided was 30 second webms of some YouTube video of some people talking, which has no context.
I'm a staunch supporter of freedom of speech, and that is why I have continued to donate to Fredrick and Jim. However, using law enforcement or threatening to use law enforcement against people to silence them goes completely against this principle. If they've been found guilty in a court of law, then yes, you are free to say they are guilty of such crimes, but to openly slander people, falsely accuse them, and threaten to report them in order to silence them is not acceptable. That is called slander and libel.
You cannot go running into a crowded movie theater screaming "Run! Fire!" and then claim freedom of speech, just like you can't go saying "Fredrick Brennan had sex with an 8 year old girl." and claim that it's your right to do so.
Until you remove the board owner of /gamergatehq/ from his position of influence, I will no longer contribute to this website. There is a line between freedom of speech and slander, and you're allowing someone to use their position to collect data on users and slander them.
Haven't Heard Back on a Board Claim
Hope there's not already a thread on this topic, but I'm attempting to contact nunu in regards to a claim I recently put in for an abandoned board. I haven't heard back yet & was wondering if it's still available. Thanks you.

And if it doesn't, is there a little possibility of having a new 8ch reader to download?
8chan needs some serious hep
Greetings Nunu, et. al.
BV from one of the smaller boards here. The front page index refuses to update, and has been stuck in this state for a good eight hours or so, at least. I've tried forcing some activity from the mod.php page, no joy. While the index rebuilds when viewed from mod.php, the user facing side does nothing.
We're dead in the water, captain.
Look, I understand the background. I've been following the situation here, Fred's announcements, the development board with Josh's running commentary, etc. I'm not looking for special consideration or treatment, all the boards are pretty much in the same boat.
I'm not entirely happy with the current functionality of Next, but it's certainly reached a usable state. If it was not for your plan to move all the legacy board data over, and thus destroying the state of the test/beta boards, I'd be pushing for our board's user base to move and abandon the old board immediately.
I just want to add my voice to those pushing to adopt Next sooner. As soon as possible, now even. We can work with the few shortcomings that remain in the new engine.
So, not really a complaint – more of a bit of a plea. Thanks for all you've done and are doing on the admin side, and here's to hoping for an early Christmas, guys.
How is this allowed on 8chan?
https://8ch.net/b/res/4956634.html
I seriously doubt there's anything legal about spreading someone's personal information, abusing his personal information, harassing him, trying to get him swatted, making false reports about him to the authorities, and encouraging people to go after him etc.
Even if by some miracle all of this is legal, that doesn't mean it should be allowed. What's more, Acid Man is a board owner; is this how you want to advertise 8chan to people who might want to start a board here? Might as well tell them to go to Reddit instead.
2014 junk
dude check this out
I just dug these up from my external drive
So why don't we do a massive purge of every unclaimed board BEFORE the next migration?
In fact, why don't we do a purge. Period.
What do you fams think
what the hell just happened?
what was that shit yesterday about infinity migration?
if shit migrated over, why is this shithole still up?

I'm really amazed how fast you killed 8chan.
You could have had the site grow but because of your incompetence people are leaving in droves.
The only board that has remained strong is /v/. Everyone else is suffering or quitting this site for good.
what the fuck is up with hotwheels. he is literally becoming next moot
>doesnt talk to us on boards anymore
>starts the migration without any announcement besides IRC
what the fuck. that kinda shit needs to be announced on his personal twitter and 8chan one. its a big fucking deal.
not to mention they fucking failed it with 24+ hours in. did they not test the migration first? or was it balls to the wall kinda thing?

SUB100: Expose Stealth Pedophile Spammers
There is an easy way to get around this problem of CP spammers on the smaller boards.
Take all of the threads and posts from boards that are not in the Top 100 and throw them onto a new board. You could call it something like Sub100. That way, even if CP is posted on a board ranked #7924 then it will show up on the Sub100 board as a cross-posting and can easily be spotted by mods or anons.
You wouldn't be allowed to make a thread directly on Sub100, but if you went to one of the lesser-known subs and made a thread there it would show up on Sub100. Anons can then respond to your thread on Sub100 or on the board where the thread was originally posted.
This would be the easiest catchall which would not have a workaround, and it would also cause some of the lesser known boards to get a lot more attention than they currently do.
>inb4 we already have a thread about this
Yes, we have a thread about the problem but no good solution was posted in it. The current thread is meant for discussion about this solution or any others.
Remove /ints/
Why haven't we banned /ints/ yet?
/ints/ is not a board, it is a self prossed anti-board dedicated to destroying all boards, so banning them would be permissible under conventional hotman law. Basically they're cancer. Cancer should be banned.
And once they move to.a new board, ban that board, and continue banning them until they give up: ban them, ban them, and ban them repeatedly until force of repetition kills them.
I'm really tired of all these false flags and petty /ints/ won shit. Remove /ints/.
/b/ flooders
I don't understand the flooders on /b/.
Some think of themselves like a modern day "batman", they call it chemo and they ruin threads they don't like (newfag/roll/cancer/back24chan/pony threads). Sure some of those threads are shitty but I don't think it's acceptable..
Then there are the jokers, lunatics who flood youtube videos everywhere - it doesn't matter. They aren't doing any targeted chemo, they're just trashing the site, increasing entropy. They'll spend literally all day jumping between proxies to keep doing it.. but for what purpose? Nobody can know.
Finally there's the katy-perry fags. It's a team of people who flood cuck threads with katy-perry pics.. but it doesn't stop there. Today one was flooding HIS OWN THREAD with the pics.
Doesn't make any fucking sense..
So this site is literally falling down around us.
When is the switch-over to Infinity Next happening?
Give us a fucking date!
Have you seen how much the postcount has dropped the past few weeks? This shit simply can't go on much longer.
WHEN IS THE SITE FIX?!?!
When the fuck is the site going to be fixed? My posts don't show up in threads until hours, if not a full day later. I've made a few OPs too, only to see them not show up after several hours too. What's the meaning of all this? Are you faggots going to fix it or do you need more donations for drugs?
So far the conspiracy has removed about 8 threads about this, claiming they violate the terms&conditions because they are discussions. First, so r many other threads here, second - they aren't dicussions. They are spammed by the very scum that are the subject of these threads, and nunu or whoever is responsible, instead of dealing with those scum correectly and banning them, allows them to spam these threads about them - and claims it is a discussion. Liars.
So there is a rumor around someone paid 400 days of this ad in advance or basically 8 thousand dollars, would hotwheels be willing to confirm this?
Please stop torturing me
I just want a relaxed board.
my computer just broke and I have complex passwords,
all the work FOR FREE into advertising can now get stolen by the first assholes who claim my boards
Only 1 week!!!!
So apparently Hotwheels is issuing global bans without global rule violations now. I guess he doesn't want people advertising their boards without paying him for the privilege.
Should there be a character limit on tags so they don't stretch out and cover the board names like this? It's going to start looking really ugly if this keeps happening.
When is the beta?
>threads freezing at 400 posts
>threads take a half hour before updating new posts
Nunu, can you get us a timeline on how soon with Next beta from hotwheels?
It really needs to happen, tonight. Holy shit.
Also, I dunno if hotwheels has heard but someone cracked his captcha on Next. >>>/next/2327
Is it possible to port the current captcha system until the new one is fixed?
Banning troll counrtry from trashing my board

Board not updating
I tried making a thread on /cow but the board isn't updating. The thread exists and shows up in the catalog. My reply to another thread also isn't showing up on the index page, only in the thread itself.

Dear Hotwheels, please read this and help me. Ok, so here's my concern: I don't user Tor and I was discussing in /pol/... then suddenly some guy brings up the state I live in my country >>>/pol/3436995
This criminal was only able to do that because he is either a rogue global or a rogue employee in the ISP. Is there any Brazilian between the Globals? Also, which one do you think he is: rogue employee in the ISP or a rogue global? Hotwheels, can you help me with this and single out this delinquent?
Thanks in advance.
/b/ rules.html - what gives?
Something I want to take lowcard and the other globals to task on - what's up with putting the old rules back on /b/?
I have here two archives of rules.html
One is as of posting time:
This includes the popular and long-standing limitation on pedo and pony threads, and also the enduring "everything is up to the volunteer's discretion" clause which means any vol can enforce any sort of complete and arbitrary censorship as long as not enough people complain about it on /operate/. It tasks the userbase with protecting their very freedom of speech by complaining on /operate/ and hoping someone listens.
Well here I am, complaining. About the policy, not specific issues.
There's another archive of the same rules page four days ago…I think it must have been written by zuljin. Now, zuljin pulled a major moot-hates-/pol/ by trying to enforce "quality" and generally betrayed the fuck out of the rules he apparently wrote, but here's the link:
It's short, so here:
These are the only hard and fast rules on /b/:
1. Global rules apply. In particular, no child pornography, no animal crush pornography, and no distribution of SSNs.
The moderation team of /b/ does not aim to curtail the ability of the posters to say or do anything beyond what is required from government regulations.
Now this seems like a very admirable policy to me, and it's a shame it wasn't followed. I'll continue in more detail ITT.
/Pol/ Front Page Not Working?
I tried to go to the front page of poll to make a new thread and all I get is a blank page? What gives?
Has anyone found a way to un-freeze a frozen front page? I look at some of the bigger boards and they're seem to be fine.
WTF is an "Anonymous Proxy" Flag?
So I enabled country flags on my board to show where the spammers are originating from. This revealed that they have been using proxies from around the globe.
Now, the problem I'm having is that they are posting from "anonymous proxies", indicated by white flags with question marks in them.
These are definitely NOT Tor posts as I don't have Tor imageposting toggled.
Could someone explain how they are hiding the countries their proxies are registered in?

How has 8chan changed for you?
Oh fiddlesticks, all of my flags were deleted somehow. Maybe this is a sign that Infinity Next is nigh.
I've read posts on every board from so many anons who believe Hotwheels has left us all.
Hotwheels, do you still post on 8chan or have you abandoned us for IRC?
We look up to this bleak sky and there's no answer, it's just eternal darkness. ;_;
Where is copypaste and why has he abandoned his creations?
Heads up you lazy fucks, /b/'s being spammed/raided with cp.
Can you please just fix the site or tell us to fuck off already? Jesus every day this place gets worse.
Tor Image Posting
Why this?
8chan-mod-pages.php
if (($tor_image_posting === 'true') && isset($_POST['meta_noindex'])) {
error('Please index your board to enable this.');
/mai/
whoever owns /mai/ seems to be squatting on it despite having moved to an offsite board. Is this legal if they don't intend to use it anymore?
The New Constitution of /b/
Several members of /intl/ /b/ have put together a document (titled the Heh Pill of Rights) expressing the official rules of /b/, which will present a foundation of ideals on which fair moderation can be sustained. I agree with their efforts and so have edited the document and now present it here, along with its original signatories.
Hotwheels, and by extension, his moderators and users of /b/, is obliged by the /b/ userbase to accept these rules and comply with them.
Here is the thread on /b/ containing the testaments of the signatories.
an epiphany
I just realized:
all the drama is over
Dud is done
site is literally boring as fuck now
site doesn't even work
nothing is ever getting fixed
Infinity is not coming this month
big boards are collapsing
no one gives a shit
/int*/ please help me!
/int*/ please help me!
May you please share any /int*/ OC?
Old 8chan Thread
I was here when 8chan was "old"
But what was it like?
I need to refresh my memory.
Insane amount of CP on /s/
Hey I don't know if >>>/s/ is abandoned or the mod is trying to get the site shut down but there's like two pages and growing of hard CP on it. It's really fucking bad. Globals something HAS to be done about this.
/n/ews board shuts down major 8chan channel for discussion of the crisis of /b/
So exactly what the fuck is going on? Why did /n/ews bumplock the thread? It's incredibly important to the core of the userbase in 8chan that a fluid and open channel of discussion be maintained so that we can all discuss things without shit getting hectic. If /n/ews is going to be biased and shut down talks, what do you think is going to happen to the userbase when crucial and key talks are taken away from the publics eye?
is this shithole kill?
or what da fuq is going on here?
> In the interest of free speech, only content that directly violates the DMCA or other US laws is deleted.
It should be clarified this only refers to global moderators and administrators, and not the actual moderators of the individual boards.
Where were you when /b/ openly proved itself to be progressive communist?
>>>/b/4828991

Nunu are you dead?
Where are you
Another victory
The JIDF have taken over the board
/intl/ wins again!
/cuteboys/ (possible other boards) is/are running like SHIT
I don't know if any other boards are as bad as this but this one but it takes hours for new replies to show and update and often replies duplicate like 3 times and shit like that, can't even reply to a stickied thread now
4chan was always better than 8chan tbh fam
>deletes and blocks all 2D loli boards and 2D loli images before the GG refugees
>now allows even child models boards
>expand the filesize limit only to /f/
>creates a unique board frontend only to /f/
>now blocks and deletes all .swf, killing /f/
Can the crippled cuck be more inconsistent? Beside being a fucked-up deformed, he has bipolar disorder?
could someone summarize the 8chan "Press Conference" for me
I couldn't handle the cringe
is it alowed on a board of FULL FREEDOM OF SPEECH to get banned for shit like these?
8Ch.net on Oculus Rift
Hey HW, will 8chan support the VR revolution?
Heartfelt thx
I just wanted to say, janitors, how much I really appreciate your dedication to 8chan's flagship board, /b/
I never see hundreds of spam threads started to wipe the catalog
It's neat
/funpol/ - a temporary refuge fro /b/ros
All of you buttmangled /b/ros are welcome to /funpol/ until this thing is sorted out
Ignore that stuff in the rules about banning natsocs. Thats just a joke
/b/ Nuked?
WTF Happened to /b/?
Users being b& left & right, board got completely wiped…
/b/ Getting Spammed to Hell
Literally every other thread on /b/ is being spammed with Travis
Basically the concept of /b/ has been random, but having every thread derailed by this is getting tedious. Anything the the vols ot globals can do to atleast limit this shit before it destroys th board entirely? Especially after the shit Boox pulled?'''
Why are double pony threads allowed?

Anyone else getting this error every time they post?
The post then won't show up in the thread until someone else posts in it, although flood detection still triggers if you try to repost it.

JUST
A couple of suggestions
I thought of this the other day when /ggrevolt/ was hit by a spam/dox attack.
1) allow the BO/Mod to remove a thread from the catalog, so rule offending content can be cleansed, then bring the thread back live.
The BO didn't have time to clean the 300 comment shitposting, so he was forced to remove the entire thread. If he could've taken it down, cleansed it, then put it back up, we wouldn't have lost content.
2) levels of permissions for janitors. I'm not sure exactly how moderation works because I've never been a mod, but from what I understand, once someone is a moderator, they have full permissions to do whatever the fuck they like.
Just throwing ideas out there. If they're retarded, just let me know.
hey nun whats ur favorite pill

could anons use this thread to summarize the inter-board drama and happenings that have occurred in 2015?
