>>154 <* Elaboration on modding torposters:
1. When/if you enable the (v3) onion server - simultaneously blacklist torposting on the clearnet domain, this way you have a single throughput of the correctly routed tor traffic, which lessens ambiguity in modding.
Have the actual onion link somewhat hidden, it should only be uncoverable for people who pay closer attention to this community and not just any bad faith tourist / raider doing as little work as glancing the top of the landing page once.
2. We should carry over a similar, if not nearly identical, implementation of captchas here as we had on Space_'s property, as it worked w/o either JS or Google (reCaptcha).
3. An example of a practical policy for mods in handling torposters:
>Level One (being an obnoxious shitposter that nobody likes): remove posts, never "ban"/"rangeban" a tor exit node. >Level Two (being a lone child sexual abuse propagandist): temporarily disable file attachments, remove posts, never "ban"/"rangeban" a tor exit node. >Level Three (raids, onion exploited for human-deployed spamming): disable onion posting momentarily until site traffic have started to stabilize to normal (clearnet site would theoretically be secure behind DDoS protection, firewall and good backup (RAID6, one offline, etc.).

On Consolidation of Boards Anonymous 2020-12-26 (Sat) 20:44:37 No. 172
We would like to ask the users about what should be done with boards.
Official unofficial poll -
https://www.strawpoll.me/42340954 As we are currently fewer here, we have too many boards. How should these boards be consolidated? To reiterate, most of the support has been towards keeping /tech/ and /edu/. Less so towards /anime/, and i've seen no one go to bat for /games/. With this in mind, the solution appears to be to have these boards:
* /leftypol/ - politics and anything related. Have a New Vegas or calladuty thread
* /tech/ - still the same tech, has a lot of culture so it should be axed
* /edu/ - learning not necessarily political. there are reading groups here so we're also reluctant to axe it. It can now also house more general educational threads, like the /fit/ thread from hobby
* /sib/ - siberia, successor to /b/ but hidden and less cancerous
If you're in general support of this plan please indicate so along with any extra considerations. Otherwise please propose some alternative schemes. Thanks.

/leftypol/, /tech/ and /edu/ need to stay as their own separate things. Obviously /leftypol/ because it's the heart of this site. /leftypol/, /tech/ and /edu/ actually serve purposes, while other boards are just for hanging out or off topic discussion. On top of this, I'll say it makes absolutely no sense to merge /tech/ and /edu/ when the discussion on /edu/ is mostly about theory, regardless of /tech/ also having an 'education' flavor to it. This could also harm the reading groups which sprouted on /edu/ recently. /games/ and /anime/ don't really deserve separate spaces, and merging them with /hobby/ seems like a good way to handle this. I agree that /cult/ or /kult/ would be good names for this new post-merge board, but I personally would suggest a name like /inter/ - Interests & Hobbies.

>>197 I also wouldn't like to get rid of any board. I used /hobby/, /games/, and /anime/.
Although /anime/ also included things that are not technically anime/manga (Touhou, visual novels, game fanart), or even Japanese (Chinese anime thread, Asian animation thread), which I liked, sort of like /jp/ but for Chinese (and other Asian) 2D media too..
Maybe /aca/ (Asian cartoons)? Or even /ani/, a general animation board? /2D/ - animation and comics?
I don't mind the name /ent/, /hobby/ is a simple and boring name anyway. I also think it's a good idea to merge /games/ and /ent/ where all the TV/movie and book stuff is, but I really disagree on merging /anime/ as well. In any case, how about /media/?
I couldn't stand /b/, and didn't like how it was named /b/ (makes it easier to find and raid), although it was kind of nice for the couple of days before the first wave of /pol/ invaders, so if it could be renamed to /sib/, hidden and purged from the /pol/ infestation that would be pretty good. Otherwise maybe delete /b/ and redirect to GETchan (both for a random board or an international board in case the user is looking for one)
Also, maybe consider changing /edu/'s name, perhaps to something like /book/ so that people who are looking for PDFs automatically think about asking there. Or either /learn/ or /know/ to emphasize the other learning subjects like fitness, guns and languages (I'm guessing certain hobbies that don't involve the consumption of media, and instead require building a skill, like fencing or drawing would go here too, right?). It's just that /edu/ never seemed like a particularly attractive name to me, despite thinking it's neat.
That sounds good too. In that case I absolutely wouldn't mind the merging of all entertainment boards, as long as it meant that the smaller ones would be locked and preserved until there's enough traffic and demand for them again.
>>198 I like this idea.
>>213 >>215 It didn't seem to work on Bunkerchan, to be honest. I quit /b/ permanently a while after its creation and /leftypol/ was/is still full of them. Besides, if they're unaware of this site we don't even need a containment board until Bunkerchan dies or this site becomes more popular.

I seem to remember 99chan trying out this whole /gameswithpassivemedia/ grab bag board idea. It was the deadest board on the entire website.

>>242 /hobby/ was the most successful (in both users and pph) /leftypol/ affiliated alt-board, you might not have personally like it but saying nobody did is an exaggeration and shows bias on your part.

Or either /learn/ or /know/ to emphasize the other learning subjects like fitness, guns and languages I really like those ideas, never liked the name /edu/ in the first place, not evocative enough.

>>249 Strange thing to bring up considering /rouette/ was never a grab bag board. But since you brought it up, I was quite literally the most prolific poster on /roulette/ when games were the subject of the month. I wanted /games/ more than anyone. Totally uninterested, however, in discussing games on a grab bag board where they have to compete with other shit.

So will the boards be deleted or will they be locked and hidden? I would like the latter answer to be, in case /hobby/ becomes tight in the future.

>>175 Ah yes, great fucking idea, take the board content where a lot of actual discussion and moderation exist(ed) allowing for complex discussion and takes and shove it into the HIDDEN BOARD FOR LITERAL SHITPOSTING.
God I fucking hate you "muh board consolidation" fags. Stop trying to be closet jannies for something this stupid when a seperate board like /anime/ and /hobby/ does NOTHING to negatively impact /leftypol/ and allows for irrelevant media content to be discussed on other boards without clogging up /leftypol/. /b/ is literally just shitposting, emphasis on SHIT.

>>248 >20+ video game related threads And ALL of them were at the bottom of catalog you fucktard. I personally requested mods move them because they were dying. There are 3x the number of threads on /games/ as there were on /hobby/ and they were much more active before the split. /games/ and /anime/ were literally a minority of /hobby/ content and were dead AF there. Stop making "all for one" boards you faggots, /hobby/ is already stuffed as it is, combining many, MANY boards already.

>>190 There is no fucking consensus, because the poll is set up in a abysmal way. that doesn't provide a "no boards should be deleted" option or an actual presentation to the mods as to why X and Y should stay or go. This is the inherent flaw of the voting system, especially when it's an unofficial strawpoll that most users don't even see, especially /anime/ users

/hobby/ and /anime/ had finally gotten a steady number of posters 20-30 each and /games/ picked up because of Cyberpunk 2077 coming out and having a massive set of discussion there. Just let it be and handle the fucking tech side of this site. We still can't refresh pages, we still can't download images properly, orange text doesn't work, spoilers are erratic, and a ton of threads outdated because the split was completely sudden and all the boards on Bunkerchan have had continued posts for a week.

>>263 (cont.) so is it really necessary to beat this dead horse again? Why are we merging and removing boards that are used and are popular? Just because /leftypol/ is bigger? That's a shitty argument, which means that 4chan should just delete 90% of its boards because /pol/ /a/ and /b/ are the biggest. Absolutely meaningless

It's only been barely over a week from this site's setting up. Why such a hurry to remove those couple of boards?
Sometimes you have to make something available first before others start making use of it, as with public transportation and women in computer science. Why not the same for
>>>/anime/ and similar?
It would also be better to have this on the site discussion board, or linked on the relevant boards where it can be accessible, because not everyone received the message about the possibly pending deletion until later.
