banner idea: blue haired tohno looking sad flying a small plane into the twin towers

Was the banner in http://tohno-chan.com/ot/res/31259.html#i35591 ever added?

>>6795
I've seen it in the banner rotation so I guess this can be resolved in the affirmative.

I was worried the chan was kill but then got reminded to use http instead of https I love this place and hope it will never die

please remove the spam. i'd hit report but i don't wanna open that board

Tohno, is it feasible to allow reports through tor?

just use certbot

That is pretty much the only difference as far as I can tell from my experimentation. kakusu hides any posts and even threads you make from appearing under "Recent posts" or "Recent images" on the front page. But some boards - such as /lol/, /tat/, /fb/, and some hidden boards like /test/ - never have their posts or images appear on those lists, so on those boards it is pretty much equivalent to sage.

And kakusu does not hide your posts from RSS users: http://tohno-chan.com/fb/rss.xml
So a flood of kakusu'd posts could quickly cause http://tohno-chan.com/an/rss.xml to look like http://tohno-chan.com/pic/rss.xml

But then again, >>/an/4558 still exists, which seems to promote the low-effort screenshot posting that >>6972 disapproves of, so I'm not too sure how frowned upon it is by the admins and mods. Alternatively, perhaps the hidden/joke /a/ board might be appropriate for more /a/-style posting. Posts over there don't show up on the front page either.

>the low-effort screenshot posting that >>6972 disapproves of, so I'm not too sure how frowned upon it is by the admins and mods
(to be clear I'm not an admin or mod). But yeah to me the screencap thread is kind of like the "exception that proves the rule." It's fine to have a little fun, but too much of it would spoil the mood if that makes sense. It also helps that the screencap thread is slow enough anyway, and is a nice way to discover new shows.

Every board has one of those, e.g. /so/ has the "post cute girls every time..." thread. Not strictly "high effort" either but it serves as a poetic counterpoint to the rest of the board, and sets the mood.

/a/ is a good suggestion.

Forget it. I gave it more thought and seeing how nobody cares for my tastes anyway, I'll post elsewhere. I might come write some reviews here though.

>>6969
Sorry it took a while to get to this. Doesn't sound too bad if it's like mini reviews, thoughts and things. It'd be hard to avoid people wanting to comment though. Like others have said, it might be a bit weird and even off putting if it's just posting a bunch of caps without context.

>the only difference between sage and kakusu is that the former still shows in the "recent posts" on frontpage, while latter doesn't?
Pretty much. It was an idea brought about by users who didn't want to stand out and be noticed.

I'm a bit late but happy 15th birthday, TC!

Day late I know, had a pretty terrible tiresome and stressful day yesterday which lead me to forgetting all but my own name (and tried going to a theme park after work to make up for it) and passed out once I got home.
We've had all kinds of plans and ideas for things we could do for the 15th anniversary, but in the end nothing panned out. We ran out of time and before we knew it the day came and went...
Sorry guys.

>>6965
How about you dance for out entertainment?

Happy Birthday, TC!

You're not alone in your dislike of "fire and forget" posts. In fact the reason why I'm bumping this thread is because I've noticed recently that there is a particular uptick of short, vacuous posts (esp. on /ot/), and particularly egregious is that these end up bumping old threads.

Now I don't mind having old threads bumped, but bumping a several year old post with a less than 10-word reply is just low effort. This was not so much an issue in years past since the rate of such things was only on the order of once a month, but the recent distinct uptick has essentially flooded the frontpage of /ot/ with these vacuous posts, effecitvely burying any substantive content.

Like you, I won't be so presumptuous so as to suggest there should be a rule added about bumping year old posts with trivial replies, but I'd like to maybe resurface/reopen the thread for discussion to see what others think.

My opinion is that given the slow pace of TC, I think its SNR can be disrupted easily; even just a few extra vacuous posts likely end up dropping the SNR by orders of magnitude (compared to say the marginal SNR decrease of vacuous posts on a more active imageboard like 4chan).

I can only say that I personally agree with the sentiment. But it seems that there is some sort of precedent (>>/ot/36989).

>>6912
Yeah, but it's been a few years since then. Maybe tohno is amendable on this issue, especially since it's been raised on the proper board this time.

We need a /fbi/ board. Don't ask me to explain.

How did you miss the other thread already discussing this, when it is the second most recently bumped one, discounting this very thread and the pinned one?

Well they'd know now...

Using Ublock's spam filter instead would prevent false-positives, and it gets daily updates

Kusaba-x has a file for specific url filtering, so a script which pulls those URLs and puts them in that would work.

Most of the depressing talk is limited to the one or two threads in /so/ devoted for this purpose, and even then the discussion is in many cases still from the perspective of an otaku. Admittedly I only found this site ~7 years back, and I do see that the further back in time one goes the more the balance tends towards misc interests. But on the flipside the further back in time the posts go (< 2017) generally the less in-depth they tend to be.

I haven't necessarily noticed gloomy topics dominating much more than they used to ~5 years back; although I perhaps do selfishly feel that discussion of anime (on /an/) has dropped off a bit: e.g. on the review threads, or people chiming in about shows. /navi/ is a bit more active (and higher-quality) than it used to be > 7 yrs back. Post frequency seems mostly unchanged over the years, although I have noticed that very-short "low effort" posts have become slightly more frequent (see >>6909), although I suppose it's overall still infrequent enough that it's not worth doing anything.

Flamewars(?) about topics that don't seem worthy of being argued seem to be occurring slightly more often, I wish that would be diverted to /tat/ (or even IRC since it doesn't really seem to have value to anyone other than the instigating pair).

[If I had to pin a time-frame when the shift became noticeable I'd say around 2019 or so, seems since then activity on /an/ [post-length and number] dropped a bit, and in /so/ picked up. But it's just a hunch, quantitative analysis might prove me wrong.]

I don't think it's a significant issue quite yet, but I wouldn't like it if the trend continues. I guess the populating visiting TC has changed a bit too so I'm not sure if it's possible to have them contribute the same way as in the past that I (perhaps selfishly) really enjoy reading.

I'm not sure if the recent addition of blue-archive et al. boards are an attempt to revive interest in otaku related topics? I'm not really into any of those games so my words probably don't count for much but I don't really think it's fit for a board on its own (a

It is kinda disappointing when I check TC for new posts, and the only thing is someone saying they want to kill themselves. Who gets anything out of that? As for mobile games, I think a board for them and related media should replace /kf/(which itself started as a mobile game). It's already there on the front page, but as of now, it's just taking up space. 3 boards for 3 separate mobile games, or one for mobile games and another for kemono friends specifically, doesn't make any sense to me.

I think we should only have one board: /nik/. It's all we'd ever need.

Being a loser is underrated.

Happy Birthday Tohno, hope ya see this bro.

>>6900
I'll let you know if I do, Thanks!

I love tohno. I don't know if you care, but I'm so glad there's a place like this. It's slow, but sweet.

Here you go.

>>6931
Wow it does posts. Even better than expected.
Thank you.
