Knowing the 2017 April Fools joke qualifies you as an oldfag? I guess I've graduated
Also there's no way any Anons with even a slight knowledge of the existence of altchans don't know about this place, half of the ghostposts on desu mentioning them are about here and the other half are about NHNB

I have so many thoughts on this.
If anons want to chase what's popular, then it doesn't matter if 'here' is popular, they're not welcome, at least until they've checked their attitude.

I mean coomposts are dopamine crack, so it's always been this way, not just 4chan, mlpol is equally 'bad' in this context. The faster posting can be addictive, but so can unspoilered porn jacking off or gooning.

I've been through the gamut of boards being sfw and nsfw, with overbearing puritan mods on some of 8chan's many original boards or the absolute rule breaking shit that won't get deleted on /mlp/ after being reported over and over with obvious bias making everyone hate the board or hate the users for championing one side of the bias or another. And now that there's info that private reasons mods can add notes to ignore reports or strongarm bans it just makes it worse.

I've only ever used 4chan and /mlp/ and I used it because it was the best place to talk with fan of the show about the show and to find stuff that was created without needing a stupid fucking sign-in and I could call out faggots and niggers for what they were
others might have hated it but I liked the general threads because after the show ended there wasn't enough going on to sustain discussions and it was a good place for fans of specific characters to go to specific threads and show off any green, art or music they made, and the spirit of the fandom was kept alive because of the rewatch streams and the anniversary streams, I don't see us being able to congregate like that if we're scattered to these alts
I don't know when 4chan will be back, but I doubt it'll be gone for long, and when it's back, if it's back to it's normal self, I'm going back to /mlp/, and if it's not back to it's normal self I'm not even sure if I'll stay around here if it won't feel like the fandom with how dead it feels

It's not about "popularity" as an abstract metric, it's about having more stuff to talk about. It's nice when you wake up and most of the threads you were watching have something to reply to. It's less nice when you wake up and most of the threads you were watching have between 0 and 3 replies, and none of them are relevant to any discussions you were involved in so you close the site again and that's the limit of your engagement this time.

Mind you /mlpol/ is actually pretty good right now. It's a decent chunk of the /mlp/ activity and has enough stuff going on to actually self-sustain a bunch of conversations, it's nice. But there's still currently less to talk about than there used to be on /mlp/.
>inb4 it's all artificial mod bait shill bot janny spam!!
Even just taking a couple of generals I was a regular in, which have set up bunkers either here or on nhnb too (and even taking into account both for those who have threads on both), there's some that used to get easily 20-50 posts overnight and that now get 5-10 or less.

I may be in minority here, however once 4chan goes back I feel like I will try to stick around, I like Anons in here (even if they only post once a day) so I kind of wish to give back to the folks that help me during this harsh time of refuge.

Definitely this. I honestly even kind of regret not coming here more in the past, this place is cool.
In my defense up till now every time I'd check in every couple of years or so it felt so slow that it really felt like there was nothing to talk about. I guess I'm just not in the right altchan mindset where you visit once every 3-6 months, reply to a bunch of threads, leave, and in half a year come back and check if anyone's replied. It feels odd. To the seasoned altchan browsing anons, how often do you actually get sustained conversations when replying to months-old posts like that? It's just not the same if you're talking into the void and the original anon won't even bother seeing your reply.
Also the lack of a thread watcher meant I'd have to manually check back every few months or keep some tabs permanently open, so in the end even though I tried a couple of times I never bothered to become a regular here.

Hopefully now with at least a few more anons like us sticking around things might remain at least slightly more dynamic. And if Pupper is really working on a thread watcher that'd be very big. But either way I'll make a conscious effort again to try checking in a bit more often regardless.

There's no need to apologize anon, it HAS been dead as shit. A chan board is nothing without posters, and for a while now there's been ill enough posters to count on one hand. I'm astonished (and grateful on levels you may never understand unless you attend a con and get some of the free food) we're having this exchange. Greet the world with open arms, as Polites would say

Yeah, I getcha.
I sincerely hope that the simple explanation for this is that it was born of an April fool's joke, and that, like myself, many checked it out but ultimately had no reason to make it their second home or anything like that, and so it was left to languish as an obscure altchan and of course inactivity begets inactivity as those who found it interesting but weren't super dedicated to sticking around also began dropping off as activity tapered off.

And if that's true, in turn I equally hope that now, many anons will have significantly stronger and warmer feelings towards the site. You guys took us in during our hour of need and gave us home, warmth, comfiness and poni when we needed it and had nowhere else to find any. I may be getting sappy but I'm sure I couldn't have been the only terminally online anon for whom /mlp/ was their literal online home, and /mlpol/ being here genuinely means a lot to me.

I may return once in a while. I may not be as /pol/-minded as the common anon, but I enjoy having a place whwere I can dip my toes into politica without seeing BLACKED or obviously paid shills.
If there's an argument, I can see sources. And if it's fake, is ignored. /mlpol/ was always a good fusion, and the fact many came here rather than 8 or u18 means is good for a reason: community and engagement.
I will surely go back to 4, but I'm going to visit this place more often now.

I mean, it's 4chan of all places so I'm not expecting them to give daily updates on how getting it back is progressing like twitter or reddit would if they went down, plus trying to keep a low profile with how much work they have to do, but at least hearing something would be nice

Moot is probably working with the feds, because despite how lazy cops are, hacking is a crime.

I think his shitter "durr partying" or whatever post is to get the hackers to put their guard down. Law enforcement doesn't announce they are investigating, they kick your door in when they are done.

That's the problem with going a fucking decade between software updates. They can't just update the server and turn the lights back. There's probably layers of deprecated things that need to be updated and replaced. If they would have just done their due diligence then each change would have been easy to do over the years, but they're stuck with a big rat's nest of bullshit to untangle since they waited until things blew up in their face before making a change.

While we at /mlp/ are not doing too bad all things considered, there are still tons of things that just don't have a replacement. Most hobby boards like /g/ or /ck/ or /an/ simply don't have an active bunker (unless anons actually migrated to 8moe from all boards, I haven't checked it out yet). And there were certainly a good amount of posters who were regulars on the huge boards like /v/ or /pol/ and actually enjoyed spending time among the huge cascade of garbage going on there, and again there's simply no replacement that's anywhere near as fast right now.

>dude check out this thread that hasn't even had any posts for four days, it's totally gonna be a good replacement for your entire 2000 post per day board
Obviously some people here are going to be into various things as well, there have been technical discussions too, you could probably start a /diy/-related thread on /ub/ or even here or something, etc. But it's not at all the same as the entire board itself actually migrating.

Where can I get chink recommendations for my /tea/ now, for example? Probably not here.

How many legitimate posters do you think /ck/ actually had?

>this again
Nigger, I am measuring boards by the actual conversations I was able to have, with real people. Both in generals and outside. The fact that some shillbotspambuzzwords probably existed on the catalog doesn't mean that the actual speed of the real conversations that did happen was all fake or something.
And it certainly had more real posters I was able to talk to than /ub/'s cooking thread has.

Fair, but cooking is everywhere on the internet, so the blow-back from a sudden loss of /ck/ is negligible; so it is for many boards, and (delightfully) anons are doing their part and making the whole of the internet a much more shitposty place. You can have likewise exchanges in comment sections and more, and if you're doing it right any id's or accounts associated with said comments are are insular to the point of anonymity.

Yes but I want my bros back. I also don't wanna hunt around the internet for random comment sections or whatever like some kind of kike diaspora, I wanna have a place I can go to.
Maybe /ck/ was not the most unique board, but again /tea/ for example had a good few anons that were fun and actually helpful to chat with, where else am I gonna find a small group of autists who are well-informed on puerh strains and different harvests to give me suggestions? And other boards have it way worse, there is no replacement for /fglt/ or /dpt/ on /g/, or for /3dpg/ or /ohm/ on diy, etc. Yeah sure collectively there are lots of people on the internet that are into tech, linux, 3d printing or electronics respectively, but there is no equivalent place for such discussion. Realistically, my options are basically registering for reddit or some BB forum, and you're insane if you find either of those options to be adequate replacements.

fuck the jannies on /ck/. Everytime I mention goy slop, I get banned.
Did I insult the janny's favorite food or they trying to protect some food slop company?

What are you talking about, what scandal? The site simply got hacked because of its old infrastructure, it will be updated and then come back the way it was. I personally don't give a fuck that jannies had their info leaked it doesn't affect me in any way so I don't see why you're implying it should deter me from going back.
Same goes for the fappening/gamergate. Why should anyone care?

>what scandal?
their server had been running software that hadn't been properly maintained (according to the unofficial leak story). In information security this is considered scandalous because it's incomprehensible how a big player like 4chan could be so negligent.
But of course, the unofficial story that every takes for granted isn't true, but that's another discussion

It will come back but it won't be the same. They'll need to replace so much deprecated stuff that the site will be different. It will be like a decade of small update quirks all crammed into a moment

I would understand it as a scandal if 4chan was a financial website or something, but it's an anonymous imageboard that doesn't keep any user information except for their IP which is worthless.
Unless you're some kind of /g/ fag hyper-obsessed with security I don't see why random users should be concerned.

Backend updates. The user-facing website will be the exact same.
