The /mlpol/ board is set to 15 threads per page, and a limit of 12 pages. Every other board is also set to 15 threads per page, but with a sitewide page limit that is much higher: 1500 pages

Something of a **newfag** question, but what's this weird shit with links? I went to share a link that was posted here somewhere else by copying the link and it added some intro to it,directly posting to show it:
https://href.li/?https://www.ted.com/talks/joseph_redmon_how_a_computer_learns_to_recognize_objects_instantly
That href.li thing, what is that?
If you're intending to block referrals and that's what it is supposed to do, since this is vichan it should work just like on 8chan: put a wordfilter in board settings on the colon.

Wordfilter : to :
Since the markup on this vichan seems to be different from the version of vichan 8chan uses I'm not 100% if it will work right in this software, but the italicization would be enough to make links unclickable and thus force the referral-less copying and pasting method to open a link.

Yes, the href.li was there to hide the http referrer so site you are visiting wouldn't know that you visited them from here. We have switched to using the HTML5 attribute noreferrer https://caniuse.com/rel-noreferrer as it now has 94.42% support rate among all users (98.14% among desktop) and should give same functionality without the use of 3rd party site. We will keep looking at solutions making it safe and comfy for users to use the site.

>remaking the exact same thread after being told it was deleted because it was off-topic
I specifically made sure to change the wording of the thread to ensure it included a definitive issue about the board and opened a topic for conversation. After it was deleted a second time, this time with a ghost of an explation, I did not see it fit to make it again. Since the thread was deleted without the staff in question saying why it was deleted or what particular rule it broke, I, who had no real information from my standpoint, I figured the thread would be compliant with the rules if I changed the wording to make it more appropriate, but that was later revealed to not be the case.
As for the intent of the thread, it was just a casual attempt to increase user participation on the board, since the similar threads on /cyb/, /sp/, and /a/ seemed to bolster posting on those boards in the slightest bit. Since it worked on the other threads, I thought it would do the same here, since community participation is actually a topic I consider to really be important. If such a thread is against restrictions, then I'm glad to comply.

Assuming you did the Pinkie Pie does a thing with another pony thread, yes. That's precisely why. I know plenty of you faggots have watched the leaked episodes, but some of us haven't and rather enjoy experiencing the new episodes - especially with the series concluding - during the premiere along with anons. This is not a staff/site policy, its a matter of decorum. If you want to press the issue, I'll happily address it the next time the series is coming to an end and faggots want to spoil it for everyone.

1. Yes, /qa/ is the meta board.
2-4.
5. /vx/ is the board for that. It’s not expressly in the name, but it’s a /v/ board, /x/ board, and /tg/ board all in one. Also there’s a dice function site-wide allowing anons to roll values.
There’s two methods. In the email field type “dice xdy (with any modifiers). The second is in the comment section in []’s type xdy, again with modifiers. The red result is the e-mail field, and both rolls are 1d20+5.

I was checking out https://mlpol.net/policy.html and "Rules for Users" and there are 11 rules numbered from 3 to 13...

Where exactly are rules 1 and 2?
Anonymous
No.4912
>>4911
Rules 1 and 2 were just as with 4chan.
Do not talk about, and do not talk about, /mlpol/. Since going off-site however, rules 1 and 2 have been stricken, as our method and mode of operation must necessarily change in order to ensure a future for white ponies. Hence, it is no longer a rule to not talk about /mlpol/. It is assumed that users won't be retarded about it - discretion is always a plus - but attracting users to the site necessitates mentioning it.

The thread was not deleted; it was moved to the /sp/ board, evidently because the thread topicality did/does not match with the /mlpol/ board, thus making the /sp/ board - with no real rules of topicality requirements - a more appropriate venue.

Yes exif data is removed from images and other files as good as possible. As per the About section of Options "Metadata in files are removed using custom code and TagLib with ExifTool as fallback. * There is no way to guarante that all metadata will be completely removed from a file."

>>5225
I will look into a way to make Base64 strings/urls not turn into header, or a fallback that works as a workaround. As of now sadly there is no good workaround (that won't break links.
One way you can do it is to add a empty bold or spoiler etc. in between the equal signs =[ b ][ /b ]= (without spaces) and you can make them that way Base64== Base64==

Again no offense, but maintaining pw's is the user's responsibility and even if the pw is retained, threads cant be deleted except by staff to preserve any/all replies to the thread.

If you're talking about /pol/ generals that's understandable, but not only is what I'm talking about a whole different board, the purpose of the generals makes sense, it's there to create small communities who will act as audiances for the posting of >green., and a repository for previous green that can be easily shared for new users. I think generals are kind of shit, but without them you don't get this kind of regular content, not ever.

Without this drip feed of OC, /mlp/ would have died years ago.

The /mlpol/ board is slow enough that any general is not likely to fall off the board, and will remain in the first few pages provided there is at least some activity in the thread/general. We've hosted Anonfilly for three years now, and have had OC production threads and many pony threads before. We still do. /mlpol/ is for ponies and politics both. If you happen to be a fan of one but not the other, make a thread for what you are interested in.

>pone discussion doesn't go well with gore and political horror
You could just as easily say "my thread doesn't go well next to inflation threads/slave pony general/whatever other thread coexists in the /mlp/ catalog that I don't like." It's rather silly to complain about the existence of other threads in the catalog you will never read, because you weren't going to click on them anyways. Furthermore, we don't have gore on /mlpol/, and if any exists it's in tiny corners.

I typed out a bunch of shit but I deleted most of it because I just cant fucking understand this on a conceptual level, even if it makes sense. You guys are just genuinely okay with 4chan as it is and dont care or want to provide any kind of alternative to it... To me this whole topic was brought up because 4chan has gotten horrible, and 8chan was executed. this board isnt part of smuglo.li so its afaik the only place where a viable mlp alternative could exist. But if I'm reading you right you guys are completely fine with the absolutelly pozzed way mlp is and choose not to offer any service that would potentially overlap it....

How many times are you gonna deliberately (this many times it cant be unintentional) misquote, misinterpret, or gaslight posters?
I hope the fact that you mention moving goalposts isnt lost on anyone. You obviously have an axe to grind, and your posting history suggests that you're either a newfag or using a VPN. In either case you really need to lurk moar if you think that what the majority of 4/mlp/ wants/thinks about /mlpol/ counts for shit.
No one is stopping anyone from posting greens except for the posters themselves. No, we're not making a board exclusively for greens. Deal with it.
You're entitled to whatever delusions you're interested in entertaining, but the evidence is overwhelming in spite of your refusal to acknowledge and admit it, and psychological transference will do you no good in the long run.

A newfag is being a newfag, and getting thoroughly demolished for his attempts to backpedal. He asked a question, didnt like or agree with the answer, tried gaslighting and manipulation, got btfo, and now hes trying to tell how the conversation 'should' have gone (cuz he's in that position, doncha know).
You make an interesting point though, this has gotten way out of hand. This fag has gotten his answer, so that should be that.
Should
He thinks all the posts he linked were mine. Hes half right

If you're reading this newfag, you really ought to start a thread since continuing here would serve to derail this thread into a discussion thread, which it's not intended to be

I think the fear is that creating a /pone/ board will spread out the users and end up with two really slow boards. /overboard/ can probably alleviate this a bit, but /mlpol/ don't have the biggest userbase and creating a /pone/ board might be a gamble that could end up in even slower participation if it don't pan out.

But there is! On /mlpol/, both /pol/ and /mlp/ are on topic. Creating more boards would divide the community and no one wants Reddit or 4cuck here. Imo, /mlpol/ acts as kind of filter that keeps jews and Reddit/4cuck out.

Is it theoretically possible to plug an old smartphone in to a charger and use that to host a website?

Using things like the carrier's internet connection and the phones internal memory, I imagine it would be able to host an imageboard. Not one with a lot of traffic, I'm sure.

That might be a stupid tech question, but in my defense, it's past 3am.

Technically yes. Theoretically doing it is the thing though.
That can be done with any hardware with an internet connection and somewhere to store data, and a degree of cpu/ram to handle the server side software of things.
There are also mesh networks and other stuff too.
If they see large data being passed through that is too big to be movies or porn cutting the connection outright would be cheaper for them. It's sending AND recieving, issue is the wide array of connections going to it as a hub of sorts.

What if there were two spoiler tags, one for jokey ironic spoilers that don't actually spoil aything and one for genuine spoilers related to books/shows/movies/whatever? Ironic Spoilers could be a light greyish colour to distinguish it from real black spoilers. Right now when you see a post with a spoiler tag you never know if it will say something funny or a genuine spoiler.

Multicoloured spoiler text blocks could be used however anyone wants without any unified standard of colour coding like "pink spoilers means joke spoilers and black spoilers means real ones". As long as there's no option to make spoilered text blend into the default post background any colour is good. Nice bright colours would be best for pixel art.

Can you add a colour code function to make text cycle loopingly through all the different colours of the rainbow at max saturation, so someone could write something in colour-changing text that's like a rainbow gaming keyboard's colour changing letters?

Could every thread made by me just get nuked on /ub/? I know it's difficult to show my IP matching certain posts when I've been damn near all over the state of North Carolina. Frustratingly, I can't even delete my most recent post, even with the password; it just 404s. It has a contact email, and I was intentionally going to baleet it today.

I don't want to be a part of the board, or this site, anymore. It's not that I'm scared some kike or commie will find me, or of any kind of real life consequences. I just give up on everything. Every topic from every thread. Every discussion, every pointless argument I've wasted my effort in losing in disgrace. It's all so tiresome. I am days from drowning in my debt fully, and a week from getting my payday, and I just want to walk away from it all. The last five years was a mistake. If I can't get my fellow autist boyfriend to meet me in the middle and help me out, I'm going to die in this cold. I'd rather have never had any footprint to begin with.

I'd recommend a sleeping bag and candles. Preferably a heating element such as an electric blanket or space heater.
While burning candles in a small confined area is bad if you are going to freeze to death it'll save your life.
Meals are important right now you are the only thing heating up a cold metal box.
Wool works wonders.
Alcohol makes you open up your blood vessels meaing you'll feel warmer, but you're expending more heat.
Also emails have been sent.
Other thing is to ensure the space you are in retains the heat.

The reason for that is not to use the kike's websites. To archive a webpage means to link an anon's IP with the archive website. Think about it, if anon has to post an address in /mlpol/ together with the recently archived one, then there is a trace to follow to dox that anon. TOR is fine for to use a couple of times, but not all the time; VPNs are a joke owned by the enemy. So, posting the screenshot is the safest and cleanest way, be for the poster anon as for the reader anons.
