April is coming edition
>what goes hereThis thread is for all Chan related current events, happenings, and news.
>whybecause there is a widespread of imageboards, and untouched communities. There is also a wide amount of users, that are clueless of what is going on when it comes to alt chans, however this is no spoonfeeding thread, this is a move to create a loop of information, that any anon can contribute to.
>I dont know what to postthis is an open bulletin, post what you feel is relevant to be discussed that is happening, as long as it is not old news.
>I dont know any alt chansNgr you are in one, if you found this place you must be somewhat in the loop, or came from 4chan, which news from there is still relevant.

>>2780what were the circumstances of it coming back online? is it a glow in the dark honeypot now?
>>2781Pretty sure it was a Honeypot even before it was shoahed.
>>2781>>2782Well servers are now in Moldovia os that's that. Not EU country, so that's that.
Supposedly it was possible to the donations.
Might be that people got scammed and there was no need to move server anyways.
>>2784So Cloudflare is no longer impartial, and censoring based on 'hate'. Good to know for if I ever make a website.
>>2784Many expected it to happen soon but this is super sudden. Between this, the sadpanda scare, ytmnd, the death of flash next year, it's shown how fragile the old internet really is. If there's any old site or archive you love that's still up, now's the time to make backups. It won't be around forever.
Meguca's /pol/ has been turned into a joke board. The /pol/sphere is getting hit hard.
It seems fireden has quietly deleted its archives for 4's /a/, /v/, and /vg/. /a/ has other archives, but to my knowledge /v/'s and /vg/'s threads are now lost.
encyclopedia dramatica has been de-platformed.
>>2784Good. I hope 4chan goes down next; they were dead anyway. Ideally, eventually, reddit, twitter, and the others will go down or at least become state-operated in a few decades. Hail Caesar.
>>2836Place was being overrun with literal redditfags and other such people. Unfortunate, but all things die with age anyway.
>>2817Something something server costs, wasn't it?
>>2857>Hail CaesarAre you meaning to say that the fall of Rome is coming, or do you mean something else?
/1ntr/, please, why do you have to be so slow? You are the best board. Bring more frens please
>>2879things have gone a bit stagnant the last couple weeks, i think its mostly impending the atrocity that will be 8kun, along with a lot of the nonsense going on around the internet lately. i feel eventually as a board some steps may need to be made to get more attention here, especially with all the refugees floating around different sites, since 8ch got the guillotine, no telling as to what is to come in the future in regards to outer sites, as for here time stands still. seems boards/sits such as this one always tend to reach a state where its staying put and awaiting visitors and potential new inhabitants, but i do agree we could use more activity.
>>2884Thanks for the post friend, glad it wasn't 20 days from now
>>2884>i feel eventually as a board some steps may need to be made to get more attention hereTo begin with, mlpol.net homepage would need to point at the existence of different boards and their purpose.
>>2886You think people on /mlpol/ don't know of /1ntr/?
Meguca is dead. They are coming for alternative image boards.
>>2888I wouldn't mind that so much if they just took down 4chan, and the Japanese sites on US soil.
Just selection for societal sanity, that's all.
>>2887I was thinking about lurkers and newfags.
>>2891Its like you don't know the rules
>>2892I believe rules are aimed at shills, but /1ntr/ as well as /sp/ and /cyb/ need fresh blood almost without discrimination.
>>2893I
mean the rules as pertaining to the one about undesirables
>>2894>undesirablesWe get them anyway and they are dealt accordingly.
But, going back to the subject, it is necessary that newcomers instantly understand the boards available when they arrive at mlpol.net. Some might return and stick along.
>>2895Well, there are the latest posts as well as the board at the top, so unless you're super newfag you should be able to find them.
>>2896>so unless you're super newfag you should be able to find themThat and do nothing is the same.
Well, I least I tried.
>>2898>>2895You mean a list of them and general descriptors of them?
>>2899What about something like pic related?
I think it would look more welcoming for newcomers and a necessary guide for those not particularly inclined into ponies and politics.
If to populate low used boards is the intention, then this modification might be needed.
>>2898>That and do nothing is the same.well it seems the recent visits is a start, there is a need for some new threads, I mostly like keeping tabs on news and updates around the web, we need more funposting.
>>2904Is my post fun? I drew a moot
>>2906REEEEE I FORGOT TO SAVE IT NO BULLY
8kun made it back up:
jthnx5wyvjvzsxtu.onion
>>2908personally i dont trust 8kun, at least for discussing news and such, at the moment its p slow, but may pick up over time.
>>2900>>2902This might be useful. Case in point, although pony is allowed anywhere, I don't know if politics are enforced anywhere, as this thread illustrates:
>>>/a/1064 → Has anyone visited the Web Ring? Generally speaking, it reminded me of why I hated 8gag towards the waning years of its short, botched life.
>>2923i actually havent personally, quick rundown?
>>2924There's nothing to really rundown. I've said it before and I'll say it again, while the staff is important, nothing compares to measure board quality better than the userbase itself. Since 8chan was in steady decline for years before its fall, many anons who I would describe as foreigners believe themselves to be naturals. You can see it on smuglo.li. Many anons were totally unaware of why Hotwheels hated 8chan, and instead blamed a whole myriad of reasons. They blindly defend 8gag despite many in the past being able to criticize its faults where necessary, such as the site's propensity towards hugboxes. Pointing these out get you shat on and potentially banned from the staff, because clearly if you're in the minority, you must not belong. Clearly.
In short, the userbase is just as bad as it was before. No idea if the new BOs and vols are any good, but probably not.
At least on 4chan there is enough people posting where you won't get just AIDS and there's a better degree of differentiation, even if you get floods of "cringe" and "yikes", which, by the way, some 8fag boards were suffering from, especially /christian/, since some wackjob idiots decided it would be a good idea to advertise the board on r/christian, despite us warning them to not do so. They effectively killed the board with their stupidity.
>>2924*Oh, and is that a doujin or official, or is it a silly edit?
>>2925>Many anons were totally unaware of why Hotwheels hated 8chanBecause it's the only site that hosts evidence about how about the Cripplecuck literally allowed a
legitimate pedo ring to operate on the clearnet? A pedo ring the wasn't purged from the site until Kikewheels gave up all administrative duties?
>At least on 4chan there is enough people posting where you won't get just AIDS and there's a better degree of differentiation<Pic related >>2927>Because it's the only site that hosts evidence about how about the Cripplecuck literally allowed a legitimate pedo ring to operate on the clearnet? A pedo ring the wasn't purged from the site until Kikewheels gave up all administrative duties?That "pedoring" was anything but. It was no different than the cunny posters on /tv/, or stuff like pic related.
>picAh, should have specified. SOME boards on 4gag are at least tolerable. I mostly just use /mlp/. Other than that, the site's about as bad as 8chan.
Hopefully you won't rage at me for saying that like the other newfags have. :^) >>2928*To elaborate, all actually illegal content posted on 8chan was removed. Eventually, both due to advertisement reasons and due to constantly having to remove illegal/borderline illegal images (or at least that was the claim, if I recall correctly), the boards in question had image posting disabled and all future 3D loli content was banned.
Normally I wouldn't give a shit, but I do believe that had the pedophiles been allowed to stay, normalfags would have been less inclined to use the site, thus keeping not only the cancer away, but also, potentially the inevitable shootings that occurred from happening (which fucked the site over), since normalscum are stupid and easily swayed, and some of these shooters, like the one that failed, sound a lot like normalfags who blew in from wrongthink subreddits or twitter/4chan.
>>2927So anyway, what's your rebuttal, if you have one?
