Due to the recent daily site wide spam the BO has set the 'Maximum number of threads per hour boardwide' to 0 (Edit: 29/05, Ron recently updated the option to make a lot more sense).

This has now been reverted back to five (the previous value).

Yes that might mean the spammer has won however on the flip side if his spam is ignored and allow to sit (e.g. >>>/co/) one can also suggest that he has won as well.

Feel free to discuss Meta stuff ITT.

FAQ

>Why isn't this thread stickied?

Because we assume you can use ctrl+f and locate it. Stickying would clutter the front page.

>Why was I banned? I didn't break any rules?

Please refer to the rules, or posts in the thread around the same time you were banned. Most of the vols will archive why they banned someone, sometimes they won't post the ban so as not to clutter the thread, sometimes they don't archive. They usually have a good reason for banning you and will respond if asked though.

>I shouldn't have been banned!

Report it to one of the vols. All of our emails are in the contact section. If the ban is less than 8 hours, you might not get a response. If you legit shouldn't have been banned, the issue will typically be quickly resolved.

>Why are some bans visible in the thread while some only appear in the logs?

Personal preference of the vol. Sometimes a public statement makes it clear that we're super serious or are just fucking around, but sometimes a quiet ban is preferable if it's irrelevant to the current discussion/thread.

>Some vols only give short five minute bans while others give 8+ hour bans!

Each vol has their own way of dealing with bannable offenses. Some of us take a laxer approach than others, such as editing posts and giving warning bans for first-time offenders, but that's not guaranteed and is a personal preference, not a requirement. Don't take it for granted. We all take a hardline stance on repeat offenders more or less. Just consider it the luck of the draw and a risk you're going to have to take if you violate the rules. It's not our fault if you didn't read the rules page linked on the front page.

Edit: To make it more clear, 8 hours is what the bans are generally supposed to be for first offenses.

>I'm not receiving a reply! My report is going unnoticed!

If you don't immediately receive a reply, its because we usually will let a few posts stack up before replying. We also work or go to school, so while some of us check the thread during the day, we might not be able to respond to something in a ten or thirty minute break unless it requires an immediate and brief response.

>Can I make a thread about X?

You can make a thread about anything really so long as it follows the OP quality rule. Threads that are completely unrelated to porn or are furry/NTR are likely to get the B&D treatment though.

>I'm an X, so why can't I namefag?

Read the rules.

>Why aren't old threads just left up?

Because it would clutter the board and kick dead but reviveable threads off the board entirely. An exception has been made to keep the previous thread up for a little while, but not forever.

>Why are some threads purged while other threads left up?

See:

<Dev interactivity and non-shitposting activity for the threads will be considered when deciding to delete it or not after the time period for 0.0001 alpha games (currently set to two weeks since the last post).

Some vols take a more liberal stance than others on this rule's application, but basically pump-and-dump threads will be deleted after two weeks while threads that had lots of activity or quality OPs will generally be left up after two weeks so as to allow further discussion down the line.

On 3/29: Furfags and Cuckshit have been given a soft ban. Please read: >>330674 Please use another board for such content. Options include but are not limited to…

>>>/fur/

>>>/htg/

1/31/2020 EDIT: Fixed the links and archived the most recent previous meta thread.

Now that there is a proper thread for it, I'd like to address something pertaining to the website overall rather than /hgg/. As fair warning this isn't about /hgg/ but rather about 8kun as a whole. As some anons are aware, while I'm somewhat inactive as a volunteer. I also have ties to /a/ in a lot of forms. Recently an event took place that I'd like to bring up since I believe it pertains to the website at large even though it has very little personal bearing on me since I only check on /hgg/ and /k/ these days back here on 8kun. About roughly half a month or so ago, I was browsing 8/a/ (and /hgg) since the website was finally semi-functioning and began moderating the board(s), deleting rule violations. At one point (I believe it was the 17th or 18th), a spammer decided to spam the board, wiping out the entire board. The spammer was deleted, and some threads were repopulated back in to the best of my abilities due to this incident since I realized the spammer had knocked all the current threads full of discussion off the board. For further clarification, I'm a meido over there, not the board owner. This post: >>>/a/949143 is me. Things continued as they were from that point until now. Tenicu continued to log in as Head Meido, anons could still post, etc. The board was officially passed on to /animu/ because we allegedly violated 8kun rules 3 or 4 (this point is still unclear to me and I don't believe it really matters anyways). The board did not link back to https://smuglo.li so it did not violate the bunker rule. As it stands, the global administration…

>Made no attempt to contact Head Meido or myself via email or private mail which they are capable of utilizing (since I was allegedly the cause of this incident)

>Did not put the board up on claims but instead handed it off to a rival board seemingly on a whim

>Violated their own policy by doing so without justification

>Did not remove me from my volunteer account even though I was the cause of the alleged incident

It is important to note that Jim currently holds a grudge against /a/'s head meido and smug bunker benefactor for being major contributors to the webring. They have been known to have personal bias against the two individuals before this incident (pic related). The two were removed from their global volunteer positions without any explanation a little while after the imkampfy incident despite having done nothing to cause being removed from the global volunteers, though by that point the two were more keen on just doing their thing on /a/ anyways. There are other factors I could mention, but at the end of the day, the site owner not only went against their own policy on global board moderation by usurping /a/'s BO, didn't even have the decency to question or inform those "responsible" for this alleged act of what actually happened, and made no attempt to make a public statement about it either to my knowledge, instead opting to sweep it under the rug. For clarification, this is far less forewarning than what imkampfy got for his antics on /pol/ and that was supposed to be an "unprecedented event" that was never supposed to happen again.

I have no ill will towards /animu/, I enjoy shitposting there from time-to-time and would like to assume they did everything properly/there were no backroom deals. That being said, I believe what the website administration did was very telling. Especially when you consider The CSS incident that happened where Jim also lost his shit/frothed at the mouth. I am very comfortable on smuglo.li, I am comfortable browsing /hgg/ from time to time and otherwise using julay.world for most of my legacy boards. This doesn't really affect me in any way, shape, or form since my main home is elsewhere, but I figured it was important to be transparent with anon about what Ron did since he clearly was not. This isn't the first time Jim has basically swept a board under the rug that I was a volunteer for because it pissed him off. He did the same thing to me on /n/ first in the creation of /newsplus/ and eliminating headlines, and then when the userbase rightfully retaliated and headlines were added back in, he ensured a slow death of the board with prioritization of /newsplus/ headlines and other inane fuckery until finally removing /n/ from the headlines altogether quietly/ignoring any attempts to contact him or Ron about it. I'm still convinced he hired the boomer shill to shit his pants all over the board but that can't be proven and is thus not my concern. These are trying times and I understand Jim needs his shekels from the /q/ boomers, but all of his actions over the last year, let alone this last month, make me want to make anons aware of the situation and that they should not trust the website's administration. Thank you for your time.

EDIT: Clarified something.

>>373291

Jim has showcased himself as an untrustworthy piece of shit from the day he became admin, I guess its nice to illustrate to the newfags how untrustworthy he is but who knows if theres even any left here. Its not like this place is enticing to new users in any way shape or form.

>>373291

Glad to know, that some shit never changes.

Most annoying thing is the /v/ was always shit regardless of site.

>>373291

> The board was officially passed on to /animu/

Good riddance.

>>373291

>because we allegedly violated 8kun rules 3 or 4

What are these rules?

>>373307

Oh never mind. It's this:

https://8kun.top/faq.html#i-lost-ownership-of-my-board-what-happened

>>373291

>The board did not link back to https://smuglo.li so it did not violate the bunker rule.

One of the anon's suggesting changes now that /animu/ owns /a/ in the /a/ meta thread suggested the bunker link be removed.

Honestly, I'd bet on both sides spitting out half truths to cover their asses in this retarded situation that never would have occured had

RON FUCKING PRIORITIZED FIXING THE WEBSITE OVER HIS PET PROJECTS LIKE ODIN AND SUSUCOIN ARCHIVAL

REMINDER THAT YOU STILL CAN'T DELETE POSTS AND RON WON'T TELL ANYONE HIS PLANS FOR MIGRATION

>>373291

Oh, and I just realized. The meidos weren't simply lying about nuking the board of spam that had pushed everything off the board. That was true. It was just a lie by omission. You niggers nuked the board months ago,

AND THEN REDUCED THE BOARD TO ONLY ONE PAGE SO ONLY A HANDFUL OF THREADS COULD EXIST, MAKING THE BOARD PRACTICALLY UNUSABLE AND CLEARLY VIOLATING BO RULES MONTHS AGO.

I had just assumed there were only a few threads on the board for months because the meidos were deleting most of them to push people to the bunker. It was actually the meidos fault in the first place that /a/ was disproportionately affected by spam, because they had been violating the BO rules for months.

>>373291

>>373314

In fact, now that I actually pay attention to your blotter, you guys linked back to the bunker at the top of every fucking page of your board, you blatantly lying nigger. I strongly maintain my stance that all parties involved, save /animu/ are retarded. /a/ for making the board unusable by reducing the board pages from 25 to 1 months ago, nuking 96% of threads. 8kunny for not following the proper rules for BO rule violations.

>>373291

>Did not put the board up on claims but instead handed it off to a rival board seemingly on a whim

>Violated their own policy by doing so without justification

Oh look, another blatant lie.

http://archive.ph/s6BU7#selection-1437.52-1437.98

You, your fellow meidos, and head meido could have just stayed on the webring and said 8kun was shit and you didn't care about losing the board. But nooooo. You all had to come post on 8kun and make complete retards of yourselves by posting blatant lies, half truths, lies by omisssion, etc. Go suck head meidos cock some more, you dumb niggers.

>>373314

>>373315

If page count is not allowed to be reduced then why is it an option in the settings and why isn't there a notice? Page count had been low on /a/ for like a year to encourage new OPs. /a/ did the same thing Mark did in terns of page reduction in order to nake spotting global rule violations easier during the interim. The board was not nuked. The "first nuking" you described is the same thing several BOs did during the interim period.

>>373314

>One of the anon's suggesting changes now that /animu/ owns /a/ in the /a/ meta thread suggested the bunker link be removed.

>Having a link to another page is the same as linking the page to another page

Oh boy you're a special kind of idiot

>>373324

>If page count is not allowed to be reduced

Reducing page count from around 10 to 1 effectively nukes the board.

>/a/ did the same thing Mark did in terns of page reduction

Mark did not make nearly such a drastic reduction.

>>373325

>Having a link to another page isn't having a link to another page

>Confusing linking with a site redirect

Oh boy, you're a special kind of retard. He said the board did not link back to smug when it links back to smug right at the top of page.

>>373291

?

>>373291

>As fair warning this isn't about /hgg/ but rather about 8kun as a whole.

Then how about you don't bring your off-board politics here, you dumb cunt? Even worse is that you make it the first post in a new thread, which practically ensures that it becomes all about your bullshit.

Get the fuck off of /hgg/ with your board drama and faggotry. Nobody gives a shit and it has absolutely nothing to do with this board.

>>373338

Because it's a meta thread, faggot.

>>373338

In addition to >>373341, site wide issues have the potential to mess with inividual boards. e.g. said site being an unstable, slow POS for the first few weeks/months very likely reduces overall user count as they ask themselves "why should I bother with this when there are other options that currently don't have these issues?"

>>373345

>Board Owner hadn't logged in in 2 months

Why is it being reassigned an issue?

>>373316

>>>/animu/

Or I suppose >>>/a/

Way to completely and likely intentionally misconstrue what was stated for the purpose of creating a stage. A link to a bunker =! advertising it. Otherwise half of fuggin' 8kunt would be shut down.

>>373337

Yes, I saw that. It was likely only posted because I raised a stink in the most public and visible way I could creating outrage elsewhere. In that sense I apologize to /hgg/, but I think making a point was important here for the anons remaining that the site administration doesn't give a shit about the userbase. You are in very capable and good hands here, even if I wish /hgg/ would have followed the example of other boards. An hour zero statement was necessary to prevent this from being buried like other examples where I've waited for further details only to be met with noise, a brick wall, or maliciousness on the part of the 8kunt administration. Jim reserves the right to do whatever the fuck he wants with the website- it's his website. He shouldn't treat it as a website for anons when Mark gives special treatment to people like Kamisama simply on the basis of them hating the board he wants them to replace. As I've been discussing over on https://smuglo.li/support/res/445.html (ID 05cb37), Mark ought to have gone about this in about a thousand different ways. Losing the board was a foregone conclusion. Doing it the way they did it was a blatant slap to the festering corpse that was 8chan policy. Why even pretend to follow a set of gentlemen's agreements and codes of conduct when you're going to shit the bed? That was what >>373291 was ultimately about.

>>373338

Deal with it, tornigger. Tibet genocide. Pics related, go enjoy your corona virus.

>Even worse is that you make it the first post in a new thread, which practically ensures that it becomes all about your bullshit.

I plan to delete it in about a week if a different volunteer or BO doesn't beat me to it precisely because it's a new thread.

>Nobody gives a shit and it has absolutely nothing to do with this board.

Is this a board on 8kunt? Is this a board that could be usurped because they hurt Jim's feels? Then it applies to this board inb4 "but up above you said-"

>>373349

The Board Owner account issue was basically Mark violating a gentleman's agreement with Tenicu and then trying to hide behind policy instead of admitting he was a piece of shit that doesn't respect due process or even attempting to pretend that the administration gives a rat's ass about anything outside of /q/. Even if giving the board to /animu/ was a preordained decision, it should have properly gone through the claims process. I would have had a good laugh about it before fucking off/occasionally mod-lurking /hgg/ if cake jew had either grown a pair and said "/a/ is moving to their bunker so we gave the board to /animu/" or gone through the proper claims process that should have been followed. Instead he half-assed it and somehow made the site administration look even worse than they already did.

But it being reassigned wasn't an issue in the grand scheme of things. It was how it was reassigned.

Can you salty cunts keep your e-drama elsewhere?

>>373352

>Deal with it, tornigger. Tibet genocide. Pics related, go enjoy your corona virus.

>muh China

What a fucking schizo you are. I don't give a fuck about Jim or board politics, but now I find you and your butt buddies getting shafted a pleasing prospect. I'm glad you're not active on this board, it would be off worse for it with how stupid and temperamental you are.

>Is this a board on 8kunt? Is this a board that could be usurped because they hurt Jim's feels?

/hgg/ was one of the very first boards migrated. It's already clear it has the favor of the administration when other boards with similar uses or topics like /htg/ are still nowhere to be seen.

>>373352

>But it being reassigned wasn't an issue in the grand scheme of things. It was how it was reassigned.

Then it's all Mark's fault. Correct? I don't think anyone disagrees with Mark being a fuck-up. I agree it's improper procedure.

But the most I see you arguing about is questionable claims of malicious intention rather than ineptitude.

>Mark gives special treatment to people like Kamisama simply on the basis of them hating the board he wants them to replace.

I think that was on basis that it's the most related boardt, and Mark being the fuck-up he is didn't think anything past that. I'm not familiar with kamisama, but since /animu/ was already active, one would otherwise be indifferent to what goes on. /a/ was pretty dead, they were offered the board, why decline? Schadenfreude is something else.

>>373353

>/hgg/ was one of the very first boards migrated.

Last I checked some threads haven't migrated over completely.

>>373352

I don't see why you care so much since effectively all of /a/'s userbase wanted to stay on smug to begin with. I think both sides could have done things better, but your reaction is like you were booted while /a/ was bustling with activity. I don't think other board owners suddenly should be concerned because of what happened to /a/. There's other reasons to worry about the site.

For you nothing is really lost, you could easily make another bunker here if you so desired, you have other bunkers too. Acting like a sperg only makes you look like a fag when there's nothing left to gain. Move on and enjoy your community on smug.

>>373378

I think for him it's more that Jim has fucked with multiple other boards he liked or volunteered for multiple times, and he's been biting his tongue for years and now with no more reason to stay silent all his grievances burst forth at once.

If discussing the site as whole is /hgg/ meta material, as said by a vol in this very thread, I'm going to bring up all my grievances here. The site barely functions for me. Page loading, image loading, thumbnail loading, and posting all seem to function at complete random intervals. And this is individually, not as a whole. Sometimes pages load and images will load but not thumbnails or posting. The only two things I've been able to tie together are that when the presolve captcha page loads, it means that posting is also functional at the moment. It can take anywhere from a few minutes to several hours for me to get lucky and the posting interval happen to be open while I'm checking it via the presolve captcha. Besides that, user post deletion is non-functional and always returns "you didn't make a post". This site so unusable by me, that despite many anons returning to boards like /hgg/, I cannot post with them at all. Right now I'm merely watching or checking various meta threads just to keep tabs on what's happening. And this is just site misfunctionality.

The administration's behavior and lack of communication is appalling. I was willing to use 8kunt as my primary imageboard, granted they got their shit together. But not anymore. They've essentially burned that bridge towards forgiveness. Ron has continuously prioritized his pet project Odin over restoring site functionality and migration. Ron has prioritized superfluous features like susucoin archival over restoring site functionality like post deletion. Ron has continuously given cryptic updates about Odin for the boomers on twitter while refusing to give even the most general gist of his plans for migration and the site as a whole. His most recent response to a question about migration was to post a fucking image of a pressure valve, like anons are fucking qtards salivating over cryptic messages that imply there may or may not be an announcement soon™. Ron cancelled phase 2 migration for seemingly no reason. Ron has not given a single solid update on migration since missing the last deadline a month ago. Ron has not given a single solid update on migration since cancelling phase 2 a month and a half ago. When questioned about /pol/ migration in November, he smugly responded that the BO of /pol/ had not requested migration when it's a fucking global board. Ron changed the DOST rule on the FAQ to ban all real child images including those that are completely innoccous, even though the global vol guidelines on DOST remained the same, claiming it was to deter pedoposters. Not only did this create a lack of transparency, it doesn't accomplish it's stated goal at all because pedoposters don't give a fuck about the rules. Ron lied about said rule change being real until he was pressured to admit it wasn't by Mark. Ron smugly told anons who might get banned for non-DOST or near DOST violations to ban evade while he was still lying about the new rule. Ron sanitized the site FAQ by changing <faggottext to <pinktext and removing (((echoes))) from both the FAQ and functionality. There is now a SHUTITDOWN function and restriction function. The former has ill defined rules so they can use it whenever they want. The latter has defined rules that have already been broken by site administration. The BO of /rand21/ posted spoilerd CP (cat pictures) as a joke and had his board restricted by ChrisHansen despite not violating any board restriction rules. There has been zero communication from the administration since and the board may never be unrestricted. This site can go fuck itself with a rake. Anyone who continues to tolerate this behavior is just as bad as anyone who continues to use cuckchan. I strongly advocate anons on /hgg/ migrate to a webring board or anywhere else but here.

>>373352

>Doing it the way they did it was a blatant slap to the festering corpse that was 8chan policy. Why even pretend to follow a set of gentlemen's agreements and codes of conduct when you're going to shit the bed?

They did not violate any of their own policies, only policies you and other meidos like to pretend exist. Their policies are shit though. No matter the reason for BO removal, it ought to be that boards go to public claims first and foremost with favored parties being given a board only as a last resort. And they ought to have given you warning like kampfy. That said, they followed their own rules in this incident, so hardline rulefags like you who can't be bothered to read and comprehend the rules have no right to complain, let alone bring your stink to a variety of unrelated boards both on and off of 8kunny.

>>>/support/

>>>/ameta/

>>373355

>Last I checked some threads haven't migrated over completely

Yeah, but the board was there even when the site was clunky as shit.

>>373394

Not what I meant. I wanted to say certain thread "communities" haven't moved from the bunker to here.

>>373388

That sums up most of my grievances with the site too. Ron's refusal to use his own site to communicate is baffling.

If this wasn't the most "active" place to post I would have been long gone. I think just about every other anon feels like this too.

>>373416

>If this wasn't the most "active" place to post I would have been long gone. I think just about every other anon feels like this too.

If you don't post in the webring then the situation will never change. I try to post on both but things are so slow I have to force myself to bring up topics to drive some discussion.

>>373419

Same. There's also a big consensus on the webring (excluding most of smuglo.li) that until there's no actual /pol/ this whole site is small time, let alone "glow" time.

>>373452

/pnd/ is effectively /pol/ though.

>>373454

And you know it.

And, that's on top of the fact that several boards only just became accessible little over a week ago. However, given the way things are going, /pol/ may be one of the last boards to come back.

>>373459

>The new /d/ board owner broke the news that Ron is bringing back /pol/

Why do you believe this? It came from a random anon in the /animu/ meta, turning the turbulent hysteria cause by /animu/ getting /a/, who did not in any way confirm he was the new BO of /d/. The new BO of /d/ made no mention of it on his own board in the /d/ meta. Claims for migration of boards without using a shared secret and without being that board's previous BO were never announced as open at any time, and in fact the plan to open such migration claims was cancelled only a couple weeks after this anon claims to have made a claim for /pol/. Things just don't add up.

>>373464

>turning

during*

>>373464

>The new BO of /d/ made no mention of it on his own board in the /d/ meta.

Was it relevant to anything posted in the meta thread? Did anyone ask?

>Claims for migration of boards without using a shared secret and without being that board's previous BO were never announced as open at any time,

Yes, they were. Back on the webring in November, board claiming was available since December 1st.

>and in fact the plan to open such migration claims was cancelled only a couple weeks after this anon claims to have made a claim for /pol/.

Board mitigation is still going on, but no one knows what the actual plan is anymore since Ron is keeping his lips shut with every announcement being the opposite of his actions. First all boards were going to be carried over by January 1st, then they weren't with all unclaimed and non-mitigated boards being deleted and having to start from scratch, then January 1st came and nothing happened with board creation still issuing a error about waiting for the boards to be mitigated, then some more boards finally mitigated on the following day: http://archive.ph/UCWGt#selection-37231.0-37231.158

If there's one thing that everyone can universally agree on, it's that Ron is being too hush-hush about what the status is on the actual functionality on the site, with even Mark being completely in the dark as to what actually is going on. And, it just popped into my head that the reason why 8kun is so broken is probably because they have a beta version of the site running while they're ironing out the "final" version, and it turns out that things are causing a lot more trouble than they thought.

>>373469

>Back on the webring in November,

>on the webring

Anon, 8kun isn't the webring and is not associated with it aside from vch.

>However, given the way things are going, /pol/ may be one of the last boards to come back.

I both want it to and don't want it to. Hope it comes back so all variants of /pol/fags can go back into containment and vent their fantasies on the board rather than sperging across the entire site. Don't want it because risk of /hgg/ and others going down again and scattering for a while due to some shit going down. I just want my lewd vidya in peace.

>>373495

>Don't want it because risk of /hgg/ and others going down again

That risk is still there. Disallowing /pol/ doesn't remove that risk and is just a retarded optics move that will please none of the people that contributed to the site's deplatforming.

Want to see if code tags are enabled.

Get ready to migrate guys.

Well that din't last long. Time to pack for the bunker.

>>377272

The loli games thread could be nuked at any moment by globals over a single report. It's time to migrate.

>>377283

Someone archived it

http://archive.is/BBr38

>>377285

We should probably start archiving everything before the global nukes start flying.

So how about 9chan? They allow loli, but I think we may not be able to post loli porn on the board itself. It's workable, given the nature of the board.

>>377288

You can post loli porn, the board is just unlisted.

https://9chan.us/loli

>>377285

Yes. That was me. I did so before making the post you just repsonded to.

>>377286

Site runs like shit for me, so I just went to what I considered the most valuable thread in regards to loli on the board. Godspeed anon.

>>377291

Sorry to steal your thunder, bro. Keep up the good work.

>>377288

>>377290

We have a /hgg/ bunker on a different site. It's very easy to find, I also recommend against 9chan as it's apparently managed by Josh.

>>377297

Josh and soywheels.

Don't forget that last part.

And it seems like it's something Ron will act on rather than just lip service.

>>377300

He deleted the vol account too. Tangerine is likely perma'd over the images he posted.

>>377301

No, I wasn't banned at all. I just had my vol account deleted, which I asked for, and the thread deleted, which i didn't. So much for hands off, leaving it to the vols.No hard feelings, this was just the last straw for me, and I think I explaned it well enough in the sticky, and a couple recent GG posts, even though I said I wished to remain psudo anonomus.

>>377303

I do visit other boards than /v/ after all, and I hope what there is for a community survives. Here or in a bunker or otherwise. The biggest problem I had was with site stability, and then the other issues cascaded down from there cumulating with this facade. Like I said in other threads, I don't do a whole fuck of a lot, so its whatever, but the sticky was a form of protest in a sense. I wish you guys the best wherever you end up, and see you on the other side mangos.

>>377304

Hey there, thanks for clearing things up. Hopefully we'll see you in the webring as well.

So the "bunker" on the webring might go back to being the mainstay. Is the bunker of the bunker, on AC, still active?

>>377306

It's still there, owned by the BO, and you could post in it if that's what you're asking. I doubt it will become the primary board though.

>>377305

Yeah, I might have gone about it the wrong way, I don't know, but I stand by what I said. I am a big fan of the webring so you might not see me ever again as a namefag, which is good, but I'll be around none the less.

I really, truly, and absolutely hate the fact that the bunker runs on Lynxchan. It's such a piece of shit to work with from both a user and management perspective. I'd be a lot less reluctant to move if it used Vichan instead, but I guess we can't have nice things.

>>377309

Yeah, vichan is a lot nicer to use overall. Hopefully the new imageboard software being developed by Robi is better. I don't think it will to be honest

>>377308

I don't think there's much else you could've done even if you decided to stick around. It was pretty obvious that the admins were going shit and trying to transition into being a qboomer friendly site from their previous actions, dwindling anons compared to qposters, and shit like shutting down /rand21/. We were going to have to leave eventually and loli just turned out to be just that. I'm not even a /loli/fag either as I vastly prefer /ara/ proportions.

What's the site for the webring? People keep talking about it but I still have no idea what it is. I can't stay here anymore.

>>377312

You can find it yourself anon! You can do it!

>>377314

I'm asking because I can't find it. Webrings are a very common thing so it's not like I have much to go on.

>>377314

Wow, that was pathetically easy. I already knew about the bunkers when 8chan went down, but I tried again right now assuming what I would do if I didn't know anything specific besides a bunker existing and it took one search and it was the second result.

>>377316

Told you! It's barely even a barrier.

>>377315

Try harder, I believe in you.

>>377308

Purely being a padantic fag here (not attempting to run defense), if you mean the mod inbox there some basic sources listed. Agreed that the "trust our unknown lawyer without direct quote", "effective immediately" and "we could not be bothered giving mods a heads up that this statue might be of concern much earlier because [reasons]" portions are BS.

>>377306

That also seemingly runs on Lynxchan as well.

So it’s official that hgg is pretty much going to be purged a lot due to that loli rule?

>>377323

Official, not yet. Extremely likely if Ron doesn't get his head out of his ass? Yes. Honestly I've ran out of patience with him and his boomer dad. I hope to see everyone move to the alternative sites with as little board/site drama as possible. At the end of the day we just want a stable place to talk about shit we enjoy. This place is far from stable and looks like it's actively reducing the things we can talk about.

>>377325

>This place is far from stable and looks like it's actively reducing the things we can talk about.

Granted that /hgg/ was one of the absolute first boards to get migrated over and so far no action has been taken against this board. Of course, it remains to be seen if it stays that way, but still. I'm aware some anons have trouble posting from time to time or other issues, but it's not like the bunkers are off any better on that front.

We have an established bunker and alternative. We have a place to move to if even the slightest problem or action against us crops up. For now, I'm really curious to see what happens and if this new stuff will be enforced by Ron/global vols, because I'm pretty sure our local ones aren't going to bend their knees for this.

>>377303

>No, I wasn't banned at all.

So what? Ron is just hypocritically soft on vols who break his new global rule?

>>377326

>but it's not like the bunkers are off any better on that front.

That's the first time I've heard someone complain about posting issues on the bunkers. Which one, specifically?

>>377331

The bunkers are missing features, and he may be talking about that. I've never had posting issues on any one.

>>377326

>…but it's not like the bunkers are off any better on that front.

That's bullshit though, they've been running much better than even 2015-16 8ch considering there isn't doubleposting, your posts aren't being eaten by a daemon and posting is essentially instant. The biggest issues are that the default CSS is trash, which can be fixed by the client, that the backend for moderation is a pain to use supposedly and that their servers can't handle a load of thousands, only hundreds at the moment.

>We have a place to move to if even the slightest problem or action against us crops up. For now, I'm really curious to see what happens and if this new stuff will be enforced by Ron/global vols, because I'm pretty sure our local ones aren't going to bend their knees for this.

That's the crux of the issue. They can nuke half the threads in this board and many others with a global report because now those threads violate the new global rules given this new precedent. It's not that our vols are gonna enact them because they sure as fuck will never stop that low, it's that ron's cronies or he himself will and it's only a matter of time before it happens.

>>377326

lolifags can burn in hell, but that's between them and god. i've no intention of enforcing rules like that

I got a Shinobu in the Koikatsu thread banned. Reported it to see if the globals actually to ban loli or not, and they have.

>>377336

on that note, see y'all at the bunker. not likely I'm posting here again

>>377335

>that the backend for moderation is a pain to use supposedly

It's much worse than you think.

>That's the crux of the issue. They can nuke half the threads in this board and many others with a global report because now those threads violate the new global rules given this new precedent.

The moment they do is the moment everyone can see it in the board log. If you see a large number of posts and threads being nuked in it by a global vol, that's when you know to move over. Also, I'm convinced there will be an exodus thread stickied the moment that happens to let people know to do so.

>It's not that our vols are gonna enact them because they sure as fuck will never stop that low

This. Even if someone would hate this board's vols they wouldn't be able to pretend they'd enforce something as ridiculous as this.

So 8ch is officially deado, this just sad

Let's see if they actually enforce it or not testing these posts: some lolis in the AI Shoujo thread

>>>/hgg/375579

>>>/hgg/375745

>>377343

Post loli right here, report yourself, and stop being a coward and reporting old posts. They should be given as much time as possible to get archived still in case they do decide to start deleting shit.

>>377340

Please check

>>377337

It is already happening. Don't cling on dead corpses, i say this as someone who also advocated to moving to 8kun. It pains me to see this site die with slow boiling frogs watching their comrades die one by one and pretending nothing is wrong.

I hope you're resourceful enough to find us on the bunker.

>>377340

>If you see a large number of posts and threads being nuked in it by a global vol, that's when you know to move over.

I can't load the fucking board log because this site is shit. >>377337 said he's already gotten shit deleted. Since it's already archived and due for a new thread anyways since it's at 712 posts, I'm going to test this shit and global report the loli thread to drive home how shit is already fucked and anyone who gives a shit about loli should move.

So what’s the bunker that we’re going to be using this time?

I am just glad majority of most used threads is already on bunker.

In worst case, hiding board from index would give it a little more time.

>>377347

One google search away.

>>377347

The same as previous one.

Thankfully, no one here is actually worth getting milked.

Guy is only promoting it, likely to stick it to Ron\Jim, doesn't say anywhere that he has anything to do with it.

Why does it even matter anyway? Guy will probably expire before 8kunt does.

Bunker time again.

The Jews won. This place is dead.

&gt;&gt;377343Judging from the report queue, the global report part of those reports were dismissed. You can tell when a report in the report queue is a global report as you can no longer promote them to become one, but the option will become available again if dismissed by a global vol.This can mean one of several things:&gt;they were dismissed by accident.&gt;global vols are rebelling and ignoring Ron's directives.&gt;Ron decided he's retarded and is reviewing the decision.&gt;all of it is scaremongering to satiate the masses and no real action will be taken.&gt;something completely different and even more stupidSomeone also global reported &gt;&gt;190839 which is a dedicated loli thread and it was also promptly dismissed. Make of that what you will.Repost since I forgot to add a space to my capcode.

>>377377

>try to start archiving the treads

>have to complete a dozen recaptchas to even continue

I tried, I guess it's up to someone else to do it.

>>377377

They could simply be uninformed. Up until just the other day, the global vol guidelines said to ignore reports about cartoons. Ron may have forgotten to change that.

>>377379

There were two posts deleted by the globals already, one of which is the Loli UCM or UGM I don't remember which batch thread. Not sure about the other one.

I just want to say that the attorney who gave legal advice on the subject of loli does not have a full understanding of the legal status of fictional art which can come under fire under obscenity laws.

Artwork depicting fictional characters (in other words, the drawing does not depict a real existing child) is NOT illegal under United States federal laws. It is protected as 1st Amendment Free Speech, EXCEPT in the case of obscene content (a very ambiguous and contentious concept).

Something can be obscene but not illegal. The relevant State must pass legislation making certain types of obscene speech illegal. The attorney stopped short at the US code which lays out the framework allowing States to criminalize certain types of speech. The attorney did not investigate whether loli was actually illegal in the relevant State that 8kun operates in.

Also, his attorney United States v Eychaner when he investigated this. And if you actually read the case, Eychaner was acquitted on charges relating to attempting to view drawn images.

"Given the above, the Court holds that, because a fictional cartoon character is not a "person," § 2260A's "involving a minor" element was not met when Eychaner attempted to receive obscene cartoon images. The Court thus concludes that Defendant's Motion for Judgment of Acquittal must be GRANTED on Count Five, and his conviction on Count Five must be VACATED. ECF No. 90."

I'm not saying anyone's going to change their minds over this. All I'm saying is Ron's a fucking cocksucker and his dimestore attorney ain't worth two nickels.

>>377373

lets face it 8chan died in august 2019 8kun was always just a delusional husk.

>>377382

I think its obvious he just wanted to ban it for whatever reason and is using this a justification.

>>377382

>loli is legal in the state 8kun is hosted in

>decided to go and ban it anyways

Seems like it's less of a legality thing and more of an personal beliefs thing.

Nigger, what? On every single webring board I've posted on in the past, I've never had more than a few seconds lag. At worst was anon.cafe taking about 10 seconds to send through my post. Meanwhile here on 8kunt I have to sit with a tab to log into the back end open just so I can tell when the site happens to be functioning to make one post, sometimes waiting several minutes for it to open up or giving up after waiting for an hour or two to no avail. If I was a gambling man, posting on 8kunt would be my new form of entertainment with all this Corona shit going around.

What just happened? The thread got unlocked?

Any reason why some of the locked threads are now unlocked?

we did it reddit/pol/ !

>>377539

I can't see the board logs, Ron probably shitcanned the BO.

Good job killing the board.

You'll gon get v&'d, but I'm not. Suckas

>>377688

I'm not even going to ban you this time. Good to see you around still, Vipes.

So I mostly expect to be ignore or mocked but I'll ask anyway, can someone fill me in on what has happened from 8chan getting killed to now, I only come here for links and support but it's probably worth knowing what's happening.

>>377693

Posters retreated to webring. Webring was kill. Posters retreated to bunker. Bunker was kill. Posters made a bunch of alternative chans. Most of those was kill, too. There's still some bunkers and temp alters that can be found in open web, but the posting in those is mostly of the wat do now variety.
