Which theme (board style) are you using? Since when have you been using it? Is there a particular theme you would like to see here? Do you think there is enough choice already?

Good news: it was easy to track down the code triggering the error message.

Yup, it triggers when an ajax request fails.

Since the name is 4chan.moe I don't see any alternative to making a brand spanking new imageboard dedicated to anime shit/funposting, but I guess there are already enough of those.
Basically a /lol/ but with people posting on it

If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading. -Lao Tzu

As it is, the site seems to be a little dry on new members. Although there is no change in the running of Tohno-chan regardless of the number of users who use it, imageboards are a media which depend upon a relatively active userbase to keep things fresh. Without active posting, the imageboards have tended to devolve into mere hosted archive, where the uncertainty of new content discourages lurkers from carrying the torch.

With this in mind, we (aka me, Not-Tohno) are thinking of doing something absolutely despicable: Publicizing.

In particular, we are considering of purchasing an advert on /jp/, if it is allowed, for the sake of seeing its effect on the traffic, posting-quality, and other features of Tohno-chan. We are not considering posting in /jp/ threads, as the advertisement system on 4chan was opened up for cases like these, and spamming as advertisement is not an option.

This will be entirely from our pocket, and not be related at all to the funds for Tohno-chan proper.

What is your opinion of Tohno-chan experimenting with self-advertisement?

>I've been on tchan since '09, and I would like it if we finally got some traffic, so I could stop going to other imageboards altogether.

I don't think this is a complete pipe dream but it would require some hard work and effort from multiple people. It won't happen overnight thanks to some miracle. I'll get back to this in a bit.

>Honestly, I think we should just mass advertise everywhere and then deal with the rule-breaking users.

That's not the best way to do things in my opinion but it can be used as last resort I guess.

>>5418

>Maybe we should do /a/?

I think it won't yield much of a result. People who browse /a/ are used to completely different type of discussion. On a moloch such as 4chan people just want to get their quick posting fix. They make a thread, get 10 responses within 3 minutes, spend half an hour in their thread and they're done.

I like the way it tc was advertised when it was still a new site: a name drop here and there and tohno posting on the ghost board with the link in the email field. Its not blatant enough to draw trolls and criticism

The best way is probably inviting people you actually know (and trust to have some posting standards). It's kinda hard to do on a site for hikki NEETs but surely some of us do have some net buddies who could contribute to the site. And those buddies have buddies who...

Why do you have all the otaku media separated?

Just combine them into one board. It's not like they each get enough posts or traffic to warrant their own boards.

I don't really agree with drawing more people in. In my opinion the post rate and board culture are perfectly fine and drawing more people in would risk diluting that. Plus, with onahole threads you risk bringing the /jp/ crowd here which would be awful.

why not make a onahole thread on /ns/?
wait, haven't we already had onahole threads?

In that case it's what >>5165 said: I'm perfectly fine with our current userbase talking about [topic] but I'd rather not make a new board just to draw in completely different people just so they can discuss [topic] here.
>> No. 5367 [Edit]
I think combining anime, manga and VN might be a good idea. It would be nice if it became one of our main boards along with /ot/,/so/ and /mai/.

This website already adjusts to the size of your monitor, so simply adding the viewport meta tag in the HTML header may be enough for an immediate improvement:

Hello. This is a meta thread but rather than being about the site itself it's related to /tc/'s userbase. I hope this is okay. I'd like to note that it's very likely that this will serve no purpose besides satisfying my own curiosity so feel free to ignore me if you feel that responding will be a waste of time.

And the question I wanted to ask you is as follows: how much interest do you have in talking about anime? I'm not asking about your interest in anime itself but how often you feel like talking about things. For example do you ever want to chat about things from your backlog or do you only care about expressing your thoughts on ongoing series? When you watch a series would you like to talk about specific developments, episodes or the show as a whole? Do you ever feel like discussing some aspects of an anime rather than the series itself? OST, characters, art style, you name it. Would you like to discuss animation studios? Directors? Scriptwriters? Ever wish to converse about how anime changed over course of last 50 years? Want to exchange views on how specific events influenced the industry as a whole?

I came up with these questions on the go and they are meant as a guideline first and foremost. I didn't really write them in hopes that somebody will respond to them one by one but if you feel like doing that then be my guest. Aside from topics I'd love to hear a word or two about how often do you crave for some discussion and the like. Basically I'd like you to be as thorough as you can but if you're not in the mood to type more than two sentences then those two will do just fine, too.
So, /tc/, how much interest do you have in talking about anime?

I've always been a regular on /an/. I've started lots of threads and I post whenever I think I have something interesting to comment about some current series, either a joke, a praise, a critique or anything, but I most of the times keep it short. I always enjoy others responding and getting a little something going on, but if they don't I'm ok with it too; I'm satisfied enough with having a smooth place to vent my thoughts about the anime I'm watching. If someone enjoys them, ok; if not, well that's life.
>> No. 4923 [Edit]
It's actually funny that OP should mention this topic, since I have thought on more than one occasion that I would like to talk about anime more, and that I might get more out of my internet experience if I made more of an effort to engage in discussions about the things I enjoy, rather than just reading and absorbing information.

However, a major impediment for me is that I tend to feel a little intimidated getting into an anime discussion with anyone on the internet. Part of it is that the user base of anime discussion forums / *chan boards / what have you always seem to be made up of hyperweebs who always seem to be up to date on whatever the latest, hottest thing in anime is, whose current playlists usually consist of stuff that's currently airing in Japan. I am sort of an oddity in otakudom in that I would rather buy a series on DVD than download/stream it, which means that I am usually not even aware of the existence of a series until it has been acquired by an American distribution company, subbed or dubbed into English, and released on DVD. I also have a job and other hobbies besides otaku stuff, and I don't always have that much time to just sit and watch anime. So sometimes I will buy a series (usually a few months to a few years after US release) but not get around to watching it until several months later. I also like a lot of older anime, which is frustrating because it seems like a lot of anime fans have major ADD and can't focus on anything except whatever the biggest thing in anime is RIGHT NOW.

The end result is that I always feel like I am way behind the times anime-wise, and every time I step onto a board it's full of threads on shows I know nothing about. Furthermore, if I try to start a thread that goes like "hey, I just started watching Chobits for the first time, and it's pretty good and blah blah etc..." it always gets flooded by abusive bullshit from super-otaku posting slowpokes and comments like "how the hell have you never seen that show before?" and calling me a normie or a poser or whatever.

So...tl;dr, those are my thoughts. another wall of text for

Frankly I rarely watch any new anime. The only on-going shows I watch are episodic series like cute girls doing cute things, magical girls doing magical things and idol girls doing idol things. ~80% of the time I spend on anime is used on old stuff ('old' is kinda vague I guess but it means everything made between 70-something and ~2005).

>a lot of anime fans have major ADD and can't focus on anything except whatever the biggest thing in anime is RIGHT NOW.

Kinda unfair to anime fans. It's true for humans period. People talk about new games, new movies, new albums, new books. Not old ones. Of course old ones are discussed to some extent but they can't compete with with stuff that's hip, cool, 'in' - basically with what's new.

>Furthermore, if I try to start a thread that goes like "hey, I just started watching Chobits for the first time, and it's pretty good and blah blah etc..." it always gets flooded by abusive bullshit from super-otaku posting slowpokes and comments like "how the hell have you never seen that show before?" and calling me a normie or a poser or whatever.

That's unfortunate. Can't be helped I guess. It's mostly everybody trying to be a cool anime-expert elitist. The best advice I have is to stop posting on /a/, heh.


If you ignore the 'what's lincensed in the USA' part I'm more or less the same I guess. But I always feel like I miss out on discussions so I thought about making something like http://tohno-chan.com/an/res/13886.html#19659 to connect best of both of worlds so to speak.
