Is Cred Forums getting the axe? It's basically Cred Forums zero sugar + generals.

I propose that we place countrywide IP ban on Germany

boards that should be axed
>/qa/
>/r9k/
>/mlp/

Country-wide bans never work. Talking from experience here.

It will send message to krauts

Cred Forums has no good (aka non-meme) reason to get axed.
There are TONS of boards that have way better reasons to get axed than Cred Forums, like basically all porn boards, the "post cute girls/boys" anime boards (no, Cred Forums is not one of them) and so on.
Other than there being tons of generals here, there isn't a good reason to consider deletion for the board. In the worst case if you truly need to justify the board's existence you can just ban general threads, but chances are that all that would do is cause them to move to a different board (for example I'm pretty sure Sverigetråden started out on Cred Forums before migrating here.)

>>/mlp/
That's a containment board though. They'll flood all the other boards with their pony shit if it's axed. Same with /r9k/ now that I think of it, we get enough feel shit already.

>like basically all porn boards,
>never seen a legit reason for them
I've seen reasons for just combining them.
But "you can get porn everywhere"
doesn't count
Because you can say that for all boards

by that logic every board is a containment board

What did he do ?

I mean thats not entirely wrong.

Cred Forums is the only board where non-English posting is allowed (other than maybe some Japanese on Cred Forums or /jp/). That itself is enough reason to keep it.

Well for the most part I agree with the sentiment that you can simply axe them without losing much, but keeping one or two of them around wouldn't be too bad.
If you need to keep some porn boards around, just combine all anime-related ones into /h/ 2.0 and make /s/ the default for all non-anime porn.
Other porn (e.g. western, ponies, etc.) goes on Cred Forums.

Cred Forums has fewer thin-skinned Trump shills

after the election anyone who makes a post on Cred Forums should get a 2 week global ban from all other boards except Cred Forums

I can agree to most of this.
I would say two porn boards, but there are too many people who would throw a shit about west porn

This, a post on Cred Forums bans you from all boards but Cred Forums for 2 weeks, keeping them in the fucking pen and helping legit discussion everywhere else.
And then people would just have dynamic IPs to bypass it.

>Sweden
>Acting anti-porn
Figures.

Ban japanese general, otherwise keep Cred Forums as it is.

show boypucci

it's only a containment board if you don't like it.

Well I don't really see the need of /aco/.
Anime porn and 3D porn are the 2 major topics to cover. Pony porn (which for all intents and purposes should be allowed on /mlp/ and the board be turned to a red board anyway) should either be kept on /mlp/ unofficially or just directed to Cred Forums.
Western cartoon porn usually fits into two categories: furry and non-furry. Furry belongs on Cred Forums anyway, and non-furry western porn is very niche. Since at that point it's a topic with a relatively small scope, it might as well go on Cred Forums as well.

While on the topic of boards with short scopes:
>/gd/ and 3DCG can be combined to make /dd/ - Digital Design
>/i/ and /ic/ can just be combined since the latter exists just for critiquing artwork anyway
>/vr/ and /vp/ can be scrapped and just integrated into /vg/
>/news/, /adv/, and /r/ can all be scrapped since /adv/ and /r/ are rather pointless boards at this point and /news/ is basically just Cred Forums but more focused *news*, but the distinction isn't worth its own board

wouldn't mind if they removed Cred Forums

Nah, it's dying already, too small to become serious.

They'd go to some other forum.
Cred Forums on the other hand has to stay, that would leak.


I say take 1MB away from the video boards (gif, wsg) and enable VP9 for better compression.

I'd agree to this.

Cred Forums doesn't really need to exist. If it disappeared most people would go back to there usual boards which are /r9k/, Cred Forums, Cred Forums, /his/

>It's basically Cred Forums
No

no

>Hiroyuki allowed one thread for meta discussion per board.
and it gets wasted on this troll shit

all can be deleted and no one would care, you can make a general for your stupid niche

Porn boards are an issue because they use a lot of bandwidth. Also, have you been to /gif/? It's filled with cuckshit and the userbase seems to be made up of redditors and other newshits.

The board's existence is justified just because it's the only board where you're allowed (and encouraged) to speak something besides English (other than a rare Japanese thread on Cred Forums or /jp/) like said.
You can make the argument that most of the non-English being spoken is just in general threads, but if you ban general threads they will just change their names while keeping their discussions the same.
e.g. "Japanese thread" would become the "Learn and speak in Japanese" thread. Maybe you'd get a few more people asking "hey guys where do I start learning this language" but other than that the conversations would carry on as usual.
And the dedicated generals that have been around for some time will just jump to either a new board or change their name like I said.

My usual board is Cred Forums tho

>It's basically Cred Forums

I have to disagree here.

>Also, have you been to /gif/?
No, because I don't use /gif/
Which that one if any should be purged, that and the torrent one.
They could link offsite for those gifs and torrents and save bandwidth.
Especially if its cuck, you can go on tumblr and find it all in seconds, one guess how I know.

Hiro can't delete us, we're the friendliest board on this site.

>Which that one if any should be purged, that and the torrent one.
Wow, I didn't even know /t/ existed. I miss the old board which it replaced. Can't remember what it was called, but you could search it for uploaded files.

Yeah, I never went I just knew it existed.
Its oldest thread is from 2013.
It might be so slow it wouldn't matter if it was deleted.

I'm glad Cred Forums going down the shitter.

That's what you get when you hire SJW and Reddit mods that wordfilter "go back to r*ddit" and overpolice everything.

Pic related, shitty janitors and mods will delete vapemen for being off topic despite the content of the post.

I'd rather delete Canadians.

/t/ is completely harmless, barely anyone posts there so it doesn't really use up any serious bandwidth. There are 3 years old threads there.

Besides, anyone who actually believes Hiro's bullshit about axing boards is gullible. He's just creating a false alternative to lessen the outcry when he makes the site barely usable without a GOLD Account or drowns us with pop-up ads.

RIP vapeman, he was a good /cum/ mene

still angry about us taking your shitposting throne from you?

Why are people so content to delete /mlp/? Do they not remember all the fucking pony shit that used to get posted before it was made?

how is designating ponies to be posted on /mlp/ any different that telling them to post on Cred Forums or /trash/

I just noticed that.
And about the pop-up ads
I'd just like to shill people about ghostery which has been working for me about getting rid of ads and trackers

Porn boards should just go. You just said they can find crap like that on tumblr.
Same with /hr/ which is basically a board for fa/tv/irgins to post actresses.

I never said anything about deleting /mlp/ and yes I remember when ponyshit was allowed outside of it. The whole reason it was created to begin with was literally just to chain them to a single board.
I said pony PORNOGRAPHY belongs on Cred Forums because it is a blue board therefore pornography doesn't go there. They CAN change it to a red board and nobody would mind, but as it is now technically you aren't allowed to post pony pornography anywhere but Cred Forums.

>You just said they can find crap like that on tumblr.
You can also find everything else here on tumblr.
By that logic all boards sans Cred Forums should be deleted

/t/ hasn't replaced anything, it's one of the oldest boards around.
You're thinking or /rs/ and it was removed because every uploader it archived has died (save for mediafire) and moot couldn't be arsed to (or didn't want to) refurbish it to work with new file hosts instead.

Oh yeah, it was /rs/.
>/t/ hasn't replaced anything, it's one of the oldest boards around.
My mistake. I was under the assumption that /rs/ was deleted to make room for /t/ since it seems like it disappeared around the same time /t/ came about.

We were always transcendent bantzmen, never shitposters.

Leaves have shown us the ugliness of shitposting. It and you should be purged from the site.

>steal canadian jokes
>"banter" largely ignored
>spam board of out frustration and insecurity

Ponyshit is dead.

It's not the same thing. I'm merely talking about images. You can't have discussions of any sort in dumblr. Its design is an eyesore too.

>You can't have discussions of any sort in dumblr. Its design is an eyesore too.

You can on reddit.

>he unironically believes this
Trust me, as a former horsefucker I'd love it to be dead.
Its not.

/t/ has already existed in 2003. It's ancient as fuck.

//oFfIcIaL tHrEaD tHeMe//

Well then. I didn't even know it existed until today just because I've never noticed it or seen a need for it.

>You can on Reddit
You need an account and any opinion that goes against the mob. Reddit is good for finding resources and reading news but absolute cancer for discussions.

>but absolute cancer for discussions.
And here isn't?

>post on Cred Forums
>everyone can see it and read it
>post on Reddit
>down voted by sjw mob and never seen in thread

>And here isn't?
It's okay, unless you try to have a discussion with the wrong people.

Not really. Here you're entitled to your opinion and it doesn't get buried by others for being a "bad opinion". The site is far from perfect but the freedom to speak your mind freely is what makes this site appealing.

>not sorting threads by rising
>not posting some hivemind meme to reap karma
s.m.h

t. several aged reddit accounts,.some with thousands of karma from single comments

wow so cool bro you are like a reddit master, maybe you should fuck off back there hmm?

Admittedly I've never used reddit
Even so, just because something can be found somewhere else isn't a good enough argument for deleting a board.
If it was Cred Forums can be deleted just on that basis they're are several websites that match 1.5 : 1 Cred Forums views
Fair enough.
But I maintain what I said above.
Just because it can be found somewhere else, isn't suitable enough to delete a board.

and anonymity.

:3
I make money from posting at reddit. I shill here for free.

I like you Bredditian.

>delete Cred Forums

niga thats the meme central of Cred Forums
dumb canucks

you can't read, I said delete /trv/, the overlap with Cred Forums is 100%

This board should be deleted. I find it absolutely repulsive that there are people out there who aren't like me.

...

I hope Mememaster Shkreli will spare us

There is zero overlap with Cred Forums and you'd know this if you actually used /trv/. Your average /trv/ thread here would get shitposted to death within 5 minutes with epic bantz by people who have never left their country.
