I think that the site should have the same rules as the board, there's no reason to have it otherwise, is there? There's the expectation that people go to the IRC channel because they like the board. If someone has no interest in otaku stuff or NEETism or whatever, they shouldn't be in the channel. But that doesn't mean that all conversations should be about anime, things get boring after a while if one topic dominates everything... just my opinion, though. If I were to give the IRC channel rules, they'd be:

- No obnoxious shit (greentexting, RPing, smilies, etc)
- No spamming/flooding
- No talking about relationships (there was someone who was doing this, it was awful)
- No excessive flaming or trolling
- Limit private conversations to private messaging (as a guideline)

As long as all those were in place, I think the channel would be great, most of the people in there are fine anyway.

Also, I'm not sure if this is the right place to say this, but a few days ago I was banned by Meepsa and I still don't know why that happened. He refused to specify a reason and ignored me.

I don't believe the IRC requires a set of rules. IRC is...kind of a unique entity. No matter what network or channel, most people understand the etiquette involved; don't be an asshole, don't start fights, and just passively talk about whatever is being discussed. You either "get" IRC or you don't, if you know what I mean.

I feel #tc maintains is composure quite well, and self-governs itself without the need for rules or obvious moderation. Authority makes a lot of us uncomfortable, I think so having a bunch of OPs can feel intimidating. Silent moderation, like that on the boards, is the best. There isn't really any topics that bother people either - with the exception of religion, politics, and 3DPD related sex or love - but we usually never talk about such subjects.

The odd time we get morons in the channel, they are usually banned or get bored enough they quit.

In other words I think the IRC is fine. Just ignore people you don't like and take it easy.

The whole thing is pretty simple to get though, in general over the last year we've been fairly tolerant of what comes in and lets them do their own thing. But the line is there to cross so there are consequences for your actions

Besides every conflict recently has ended in pretty widespread acceptance/agreement. Those who didn't don't even care about the site or community as a whole and its good riddance, there are very few places that a lot of us can actually just be ourselves

>>2391

Also you've broken some of the very rules you stated, and your ban alone became the catalyst for getting rid of the rest of the garbage that spams our channel.

I'll relieve the ban right now because I'm such a nice guy, and the main source of the problem is gone so whatever. But if you spam any more of you /jp/ shitposting may the lolis have mercy on your soul

the only thing that's urked me on IRC lately is someone was talking about the "cute boys" they stalk on tumblr. Other than that I haven't had any problems with irc, but then again I'm not on it much

I think you need to be more specific about your rules.

For example:

>If someone has no interest in otaku stuff or NEETism or whatever, they shouldn't be in the channel.
>- No talking about relationships (there was someone who was doing this, it was awful)

If your reason for becoming a NEET was because of terrible relationships, would it be against the rules to talk about such things?

Or another example:
>- Limit private conversations to private messaging (as a guideline)

How can you define it a "private conversation" if you're having it in front of other people for them to see? Should people be held at fault if only one person happens to be responding and it looks like a "private conversation"?

>>2400

>If your reason for becoming a NEET was because of terrible relationships, would it be against the rules to talk about such things?

In general, discussions about such things are not allowed. If it were your reasoning for becoming a NEET, perhaps you could find another way to explain it.

>How can you define it a "private conversation" if you're having it in front of other people for them to see? Should people be held at fault if only one person happens to be responding and it looks like a "private conversation"?

This I do agree with. I've seen times when the channel is dead, so two people are chatting about something, and someone says something like, be quiet take it to PM. Unless it's private or against the rules, they should have every right to chat in the channel - especially if it is currently dormant.

>>2400
>If your reason for becoming a NEET was because of terrible relationships, would it be against the rules to talk about such things?
I don't know about you, but I really hate it when people whine about their relationships. It's against the rules on the boards to talk about relationships; why do you think that is? I thought that most people here were either disinterested in or disgusted by 3D women in general... whining in general is bad, but especially that kind.

>How can you define it a "private conversation" if you're having it in front of other people for them to see?
Sometimes two people just talk back and forth with each other and ignore everyone else. Maybe it wasn't that bad, but it seemed like there was occasional circlejerking when I visited the IRC... maybe I was just imagining some of it, though.

I don't know, I'm sorry. I was just tossing out some ideas.

>>2402

>I thought that most people here were either disinterested in or disgusted by 3D women in general... whining in general is bad, but especially that kind.

This might not be the the best thread to ask in, but what do you think should be done if there is a female who is a NEET and likes otaku related things and is pretty much similar to everyone here besides the female thing? And how do you feel about it being known that she is a female just because of maybe either only slightly implying it in conversation? Basically, if she does have to mention she's a female, it's part of the conversation at hand? Or do you think it should be barred altogether?

Personally I feel like having to limit your conversation even if it's completely related to what other people are talking about seems a bit annoying. And I feel like alienating people for something they can't change seems a bit... backwards in terms of how people on this website are. You might as well just tell people "Just stop being a NEET and go get job", because it's similar to saying "Just stop being a female when you talk here".

>>2403
theres just never much reason to talk about what you are in real life so when someone mentions something like race or gender it sort of sticks out and annoys people.

But aren't NEET related things real life things?

>>2400
>If your reason for becoming a NEET was because of terrible relationships, would it be against the rules to talk about such things?
Whole reason why those discussion should be forbidden because we don't want to be reminded about filthy real world relationships and people. If you want talk how shit your life used to be, start your own blog.

>This might not be the the best thread to ask in, but what do you think should be done if there is a female who is a NEET and likes otaku related things and is pretty much similar to everyone here besides the female thing?
She shouldn't be on tc in first place. I think every people who say or imply they are female should be banned immediately. We don't need such attention whores here. If conversations are hard, then you probably don't belong here. I am not neet or hikki but I don't discuss my personal life here because those kind discussions don't belong here.

>"stop being a female when you talk here"

When you think of this, do not take it literally, take it figuratively. Make it a state of mind. Gender is not important. The only ones who think it important are those who seek attention, and those are the worst.

>>2407
This. Maybe it's just because I'm paranoid but I can't see why people would spill personal information about themselves on an anonymous imageboard. Sure I talk about things I do or think but I never wanna say who I am

>>2410

>I am not neet or hikki but I don't discuss my personal life here because those kind discussions don't belong here.

>>2408
But what about on IRC? Do you think it should be different?

Post edited on 27th May 2012, 11:49pm

>>2409
Tell what exactly?

Why did a discussion about the irc become this

>>2403
As far as I can tell, there's only two people in the IRC that identify as female, and from what I can tell, one of them is universally hated, and everyone else thinks that the other is a man. If you're a third person who wants to come out of the "shoe closet" (is that funny???) you probably shouldn't.

>>2409
I meant discussions that aren't neet, hikki or otaku related, so called 'normal discussions'. Such how my day was in work, how I had fun with friends etc. /ot/ isn't supposed to be place for all kind discussions. It's just place for discussions that don't fit on other boards.

>/ot/ - Otaku Tangents
>This is a board for topics that don't fit on other boards, but that are still otaku/hobby related.

>>2408
Also this. I don't understand why people want to tell about themselves on an anonymous imageboard. Asking advice is bit different but myself I wouldn't trust anonymous in everything.


Irc itself is bit different. I think talking about personal life is okay as long topics stay in margins of some sort guidelines(no extreme stuff like partying and girlfriends). Irc is much different than imageboard concept.

>>2413

Yeah the IRC is typically more loose because discussions there actually go away, whereas a dumb thing on the board will stay and fester and pick up more dumb things until it is a snowball of shit.

>>2412
The different approaches those two you're referring to take are pretty good examples of how not to act and how to act.

The "universally hated" one made it obvious with almost every line she wrote that she was female, going out of her way to try and find ways to make her gender relevant to the topic being discussed so that she could bring it up again. The one everyone thinks is a man has been in the room for ages and blends in perfectly without drawing any attention to herself or giving even a hint of her gender, and has earned her place as a well liked and respected member of the group.

>>2414
This tread is full of evidence that the shit doesn't exactly just go away.

>Some believe the irc channel should have it's own set of rules, since many regulars of the channel never visit the site, let along read the rules.

If this is problem then link site rules to topic of irc channel.

* Take conversations between two to PM, unless others can partake.
* Try to not create drama. Never bring drama from outside of the channel into it.

OPs should tactfully intervene and in the cases someone is banned, the ban should be for a few days only. Long/permanent bans only for black and white issues (e.g. flooding, trolling).

I only have few issues with how the channel is right now. Most of them are minor.

>>2391

>- No obnoxious shit

>greentexting

Elaborate.

>RPing

Elaborate.

>>2392

>There isn't really any topics that bother people either - with the exception of religion, politics, and 3DPD related sex or love - but we usually never talk about such subjects.

That's what we talk about at least 50% of the time (well if you ignore DotA).

>>2395

>the only thing that's urked me on IRC lately is someone was talking about the "cute boys" they stalk on tumblr.

Actually tumblr is quickly becoming the new problem from what I've seen. 'Oh did I tell you about my tumblr yet? You see someone just reblogged what I posted. On tumblr. Did I mention I have a tumblr yet?'

>>2400

>If your reason for becoming a NEET was because of terrible relationships, would it be against the rules to talk about such things?

Yes, definitely. This is coming from someone who actually is in the situation you described. Just say something like 'I have my own circumstances I don't want to talk about' when asked.

>>2403

>This might not be the the best thread to ask in, but what do you think should be done if there is a female who is a NEET and likes otaku related things and is pretty much similar to everyone here besides the female thing?

I don't think we would mind if she could stop acting the way she does. But she won't. We pointed it out several times and each time she swore to stop it only to do her thing again after 15 minutes.

>And I feel like alienating people for something they can't change seems a bit... backwards in terms of how people on this website are.

Actually it's the opposite. Nobody complained about her being female specifically, just the fact that she keeps mentioning it. If it were the site she would be lynched right away.

>"Just stop being a NEET and go get job"

Actually it'd be the other way around.

Speaking of which. Stop talking about your school/jobs guys. I understand the need to vent the frustration sometimes. If you can't help it and feel it'll make you feel better it's okay. Do it. But in moderation.

Oh, good. >>2406 does a great job at showcasing /tc/'s attitude towards women. The IRC is EXTREMELY tolerant.

>>2411

>Why did a discussion about the irc become this

Because that's the numer one problem on IRC right now and the reason why the thread was created in the first place.



Aside from that:

‣ No 4chan meta discussion. Linking pictures is something we've always done and linking threads is fine every once in a blue moon but we don't give a shit about how the new shitty janitor on board [x] doesn't understand what board [x] is about. Take it to #japanesebird or whatever shitty channel /jp/ hangs out on.

I strongly disagree with the rule (suggestion) that users must not say they're female if they are. Mentioning it should be allowed, but only in passing, or incidentally mentioned, or similar. It should only be banned when it is the focus of a discussion and/or a (warranted) source of drama (like in the IRC example earlier). We shouldn't discriminate based on gender, because there are some females here who belong.

Take this example: someone makes a thread where they mention they're female in passing, she mentions it because its important to her post and she has no intention of making a troll post or inciting negative reactions. Then, a bunch of tc users brew up a shitstorm simply because she mentioned shes female. Whose fault is it? The OP shouldn't be responsible for other peoples' irrational knee jerk reaction to something that is inherently quite okay.

Post edited on 28th May 2012, 7:05am

I think you guys are blowing these supposed problems way out of proportion.

Tumblr: Yeah some people have them...but Tohno_ and a few others have full fledged blogs and post those from time to time. How is this an issue, if all they are is pictures of cute girls doing cute things? It's not like people are linking shitbookaccounts or something really annoying like that.

"I don't like what you're talking about": Indeed, sometimes issues such as philosophy or politics come up. But are we not mature enough to have a little discussion about such matters, or to simply ignore them if it does not strike your interest? I feel it's no different than threads in /mt/, for example. I mean you can only talk about anime or VNs or video games so much before it gets boring.

Females: There are two females left in the channel. One has been around practically since the site started and is practically a dude anyway, and the other just idles all day. The only other one (>>2369) joined for at most 2 days and left.

School/jobs: I don't care for these discussions either, but what can you do. I can only think of one person who really talks about jobs and they're a mod anyways.

Obnoxious shit: I don't think anyone even RPs or greentexts in the channel.

Relationships: Worthy of an instant ban.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't really think the IRC has any problems. We've had some morons join and leave lately, and some annoying raids by Finns and Russians but it all goes away.

>>2421

>We shouldn't discriminate based on gender, because there are some females here who belong.

Personally I don't care much but I think the userbase is strongly biased against women for obvious reasons. Saying you're female always creates drama. The boards go into full shitstorm mode but even a place like IRC which is much more leisurely when it comes to stuff like that doesn't react all too well.

>>2422

>Obnoxious shit: I don't think anyone even RPs or greentexts in the channel.

We do but not in the way that I see as obnoxious. Greentexting is a somewhat useful tool actually. It's not like you'll see people use it for stuff like >impying fucking Gamestop.

As for the RP thing we do it sometimes too but not in the 'lol it's me, Sonichu!' way. I wonder how many people are really annoyed by rare innuendo remarks.

>Females: There are two females left in the channel.

Also please note this. They never really birng it up in any way and I bet we even have some regulars who don't realize there are any females around. Why bring it up. Keep your age, nationality, gender and the like to yourself.

>>2421
>a bunch of tc users brew up a shitstorm simply because she mentioned shes female.
>Whose fault is it?

It's her fault for not lurking enough. This site can't possibly be all male, it's just that those posters don't tack "oh btw im a girl" to the end of their posts.

>>2425
I hate to spin this argument so long but I feel this is an important issue and I don't think you quite understood my post. Mentioning that you're female for legitimate reasons (i.e not in an attentionwhoring way or similar) has nothing inherently wrong with it, same for if you mentioned you lived in Chicago, or mentioning that you have a weak elbow, or whatever (although its better to avoid talking about your personal details). I think the 'rule' is there ONLY because it causes a negative reaction. But why should it? Why would someone who is a respected user of this board suddenly become 'evil' just because it become sknown that they are female? Is it because many users are bitter towards females? At most, being female suggests a higher probablity of being unwanted on this site, it doesn't mean that there are absolutely no females who belong here at all.

>>2426

>Mentioning that you're female for legitimate reasons

Whether the reason is 'legitimate' or not doesn't matter, there are lots of things we don't really want to know. We don't want to know whether you're male or female, black or white, religious or not, what country you're from, what school you go to, where you work etc. etc.

And again

>Females: There are two females left in the channel.

I consider myself to be a regular and I have no idea who those two are. Meaning they never felt the need to mention it on the channel, at least not while I was present. Let's keep it that way.

>>2426
There is no such thing as legimate reason. On anonymous imageboard, gender shouldn't be mentioned.

Females don't belong on this site at all. They just deserve to be banned, if they are retarded enough to reveal it.

>>2430
There was once a thread called 'what do you wish for' and I had to mention my female gender there to put across the point that I wish I was I born female as being a transgender fucking sucks.

So, there are legitimate reasons.

>>2430
Again, why should females be banned and mentioning you're female forbidden? 'Females are retards' is not a legitimate reason. Some are not, some could potentially be more valuable members of this site than most of our current users. You're being ridiculous because being female and mentioning it isn't itself the issue, the issue is that users here don't take it easy and there is the attitude on this site that the slightest whiff of something that might offend our equilibrium must be bashed out or else 'the site will become shit'. Its like some fucked up version of political correctness.

The only legitimate coutner argument I can think of for this is that personal details shouldn't be mentioned at all. In that case there should be a blanket ban/discouragement on mentioning all personal details, and not just gender.

Post edited on 29th May 2012, 6:36am

How did this go from IRC rules to misogyny general anyways? Females are a non-issue on both the website and IRC. They are there...but no one really knows who they are or gives a shit so I don't even think it's worth arguing.

To return to the actual topic at hand, I think IRC works best when you use self-restraint and every single person in there does so. We have 4-5 OPs constantly in the channel at any given time who are quick to respond to any problems so it's not like we get raided or flooded on a regular basis.

Just take it easy and use common sense.

>>2432
>there should be a blanket ban/discouragement on mentioning all personal details, and not just gender.


I'm OK with this. I mean I'm fine with people talking about their daily activities but some people feel the need to put unnecessary bits of personal information in there for reasons I don't know. One guy in particular mentions the same stuff so much I don't know why he doesn't just post with a name

Also, I kind of wish the site was more focused on anime and games than being sad. I'm as guilty as anyone of posting how depressed I am and about my troubles and it IS nice to have a place to vent, but it really sucks when I barely see anyone talking about anything else

Post edited on 29th May 2012, 11:18am

>>2430
That's not legimate reason to break rules. It is like saying talking about sex and relationship experiences in daily report thread should be allowed, because that would be his 'daily report'. If you can't post on 'what do you wish for' etc. threads without breaking rules, don't post then.

>>2432
>Again, why should females be banned and mentioning you're female forbidden?
Because we don't want to see posts like that in here. Like we don't want to see disgusting 3D pictures here. Like we don't want to see religion and race battles here. Like we don't want to see /b/shit memes here. That's why it is discouraged or forbidden. If you are unpolite, attention whore or just pure retarded to reveal you are female, you deserve ban. There is no reason to reveal that you are female on ANONYMOUS imageboard. Unless you want attention.

Female users have zero value for this place. They shouldn't be here in first place and we should keep this place clean. I and probably some others want to have atleast one place where we can be free from this disgusting real life gender inequality.

>>2434
>Also, I kind of wish the site was more focused on anime and games than being sad.
I wish this too.

>>2435
> I and probably some others want to have atleast one place where we can be free from this disgusting real life gender inequality.

I can't even tell if you're being serious here, you're the one spouting the inequality.

So uh anyway, IRC

You're insane and completely discussing this in the wrong thread. If you want to start a debate about turning Tohno-chan into an all male image board, start a new thread. This is for IRC rules!

Why should normals be banned and mentioning you were out clubbing with your buddies yesterday and fucking chicks you picked up forbidden? 'Normals are retards' is not a legitimate reason.

The reason is the same, we just don't want to fucking know.

>there is the attitude on this site that the slightest whiff of something that might offend our equilibrium must be bashed out or else 'the site will become shit

It's true, though.

>The only legitimate coutner argument I can think of for this is that personal details shouldn't be mentioned at all. In that case there should be a blanket ban/discouragement on mentioning all personal details, and not just gender.

Actually pretty much everybody said the same thing if you'd actually read the thread.

>>2434

That's how depression works I guess, you just stop doing things that used to be fun. Can't be helped.

Irc rules same than rules on the site.

It is a matter of courtesy. You don't say you're a girl just like you don't say you go on 4chan or that you smoke weed or whatever. It is a social faux-pas.
All of us have our `failings', but it doesn't matter; what matters is that we only know about you what you are willing to post. And we are very willing to be fooled, because I bet that if I knew what every poster on tohno-chan was really like I'd swiftly leave the place. We want to maintain the illusion that makes this place a safe haven.
All of this is implicit. It is a question of board culture, and you're going to have to agree to this unspoken contract if you want to continue posting here.
We don't want neither people who don't agree with it nor people who are too oblivious to notice it.

That's how I see things, at least.

>>2448

>just like you don't say you go on 4chan

It's funny because everytime I tell people to take 4chan meta discussion elsewhere I'm told that the only regulars on the channel who don't browse 4chan is me and Tohno.

>>2449
You're not the only one, but it doesn't matter. The IRC channel is shit. Most are.

>>2450

Well, the purpose of the thread is to improve the channel, even if by a wee little bit. Not like it's gonna be as good as the site but let's face it, lots of us spend our days staring at the walls, might as well waste in some other way.

>>2449

Browsing 4chan and liking it's meta and circlejerk discussions are two entirely different things.

While I don't personally have a problem with female users, I can understand why there's such a backlash against them considering the context of the board/irc. I find that the majority of them don't really seem to fit in with the userbase. In my experience female shutins always seem to be the way they are because of relationship stuff (see >>2369) and still feel the urge to pursue them/other normal stuff. Sorry, but tohno just isn't the place to discuss those kinds of things, there are plenty of other places on the net for that.

>>2477
There's probably some that fit in, you just can't tell because they, well, fit in.

>>2477

>female shutins always seem to be the way they are because of relationship stuff

You'd be surprised but the same is holds true for quite a few guys (both on the site and IRC), we just don't bring it up.

>>2479
>we just don't bring it up
So how do you know?

>>2483
From really old Tohno-chan/private messages/seeing them on other sites

>>2483

Mostly PMing with other people. I'm one of those guys, too.

I'm surprised this thread is still going, and whining about females instead of the actual topic (IRC rules). I don't see the big issue with females if they don't bring it up. If you've been on /tc/ long enough you'd know there are indeed a few regular females here (lurk the MAL, Steam, IRC, or even board to see), so I don't understand why there is such strong animosity to them. I'm willing to bet no one could even mention one by name, since they don't stick out anymore than male posters do.

Anyway, for an actual (not really serious) IRC rule: Take it easy with the damn DOTA talk.

>>2494
If there are girls there, they do a good job of hiding it.

>Anyway, for an actual (not really serious) IRC rule: Take it easy with the damn DOTA talk.

This please. It's like god damn LoL all over again.

>>2499
>If there are girls there, they do a good job of hiding it.
Yes and that is totally fine.

Forgive my 4chan picture but this is what I think about female posters. There is absolutely no reason to tell why you are female in internet, unless you want attention.

>>2499
It really is, but no one ever complains about it on IRC so of course they wont ease up on it.

>>2505
If I got mad every time people on IRC started talking about things I don't care about then I would be mad all the time. Well, I am mad all the time anyway but you get my point

>>2479

I never really see guys discuss it though,
I assume they're uninterested in them.

But in my experience most women are still interested in them and other real life goings/complaints and feel the need to tell everyone.

You should delete the IRC channel so more people post on the site

>>2511

>>2513

>>2515
No need to thank me.

>>2511

Treat the IRC as a filter, all the bad stuff goes there and stays there and thanks to that the site is much more peaceful.

The IRC is just for taking it easy anyway. Most things end up posted on the site if there is an appropriate board for it. The site is just slow because I guess you can only talk about anime or games so much before you start saying the same things.

>>2513
sorry

>>2494
well on IRC we had Matryoshka who is banned now and I know we have another but I'm not going to say names because it's unimportant and was only mentioned in passing once to me by her and has never been made an issue.

She sometimes joins IRC with her first name, it's not like she tries to hide that she's a woman.

Some people use IRC shells...and if you ping out, or there is a net split or whatever sometimes your nick lingers around, and upon auto-reconnect it picks the next one available.

Because this thread is still active,

Remove my modstuff tobo before I do something stupid. I'm getting way to silly and I wouldn't be surprised I ended up deleting half the fucking site somehow

I guess the reasons are irrelevant if you are gone. But if it's problems with the site/IRC, it's kind of helpful to say precisely the issue is, so it can possibly be rectified. If it's personal, then it need not be brought up.

Well. That was unexpected. Take it easy and enjoy yourself, man. Remember to drop by the go club if you're ever around this shithole where I live.

>>2534
Come back some time and keep us up to date please.
I don't want to just have you disappear. I'm not telling you to come back, just drop in some time.
Have a fun time and shit.

can we delete this thread and not let the circlejerk spread ot the rest of the site?

Good riddance.

>>2543
Because half the channle got operator status in the IRC channel last night.

how does that tokiko guy go from being auto banned for evasion to voiced? he drove out half the channel

>>2545

A bunch of people got random OPs one boring night, so I guess some voiced themselves for some reason. He isn't banned anyway, he kept evading and got let back in.

>>2545 >>2546
I have been banned twice for short periods of time, but both bans were quickly reversed. I've never been autobanned and I've never evaded my bans. I just change my name often because I'm goofy.

>>2561
Does two ops, and some random dude talking with the channle on mute for a few minutes make the channle a OP circlejerk?

>>2562
yes, yes it does.

I've been coming to irc for a long time, but I don't feel like I have much in common with anyone else. Weird, because I am into a lot of the usual stuff (jrpgs and vns etc.) but not anime, which is now maybe 90% of discussion. But it's the only place I can stand anymore.

Most people in there like VNs and JRPGs. You can always talk about them. I think most people are talking about anime lately because the latest season started not too long ago.
