Things definitely deteriorated after 8chan went down. One part of the Plan that I think was a mistake.
But 8kun is being publicized more and we're getting tons of newfags, mostly catholicfags and other shills. But some are okay and they will learn what we had to 2+ years ago. It's frustrating helping them out at times, but they've got to get up to speed. Extra shills helps that to happen, too. This place is not user-friendly, and it shouldn't be.
