>>357 A thread isn't as easy to find as a board and getting people a dedicated space to discuss / talk about their lives with other people is better than just having a thread. Also, there's not as much sense of community in a thread as there's in a separate board (which is the main point of the it, creating a community)

Site Disruption and Future Anonymous Board owner 02/17/2022 (Thu) 06:24:27 No. 256 [Reply]

The old webserver exploded. No idea why, but the backups were fine and the instance itself was working so it was easy enough to salvage config files and other things. It's sort of a good thing, it finally motivated me to upgrade the backend from the now 2-year-outdated version it was on. New backend should be much better, and much more memory efficient. Some things are of course broken, for now the frontpage images are broken and captchas as well (though regular users won't notice that last one). This all brings up a question. I just took 2 days off work to spin up a new environment and get dependencies in order. That's a lot of money to invest into this project that, to date, has already cost me a fair amount. I never expected any returns, but at the same time I don't think I still have such a huge drive to preserve that anonymous thread culture I was such a fan of that I can justify such large expenditures. So what do I do to make this worthwhile, other than offlining and ruining everyone's fun and wasting my own time? I might add a donation link to help pay for hosting and other bills.

Banner Suggestions Anonymous 08/22/2019 (Thu) 22:28:49 No. 2 [Reply]

Feel free to suggest images for banners here, I can crop them into something nice so just go nuts.

If you want to make one yourself the size limit is 200kb and 300x100 is the prefered size but not required.

Suggestions can be global or board specific.

How do we stop subhumans and bots from spamming this board with illegal shit?

>>285 While I agree that blanket bans are generally a shitty solution, this sort of abuse has to be cracked down on hard. If left unchecked, it may become a real threat to this site's continued existence and the safety of its users.

>>286 I'm a new user. Came here once, then the second time I saw a post on the catalog, hours later I came here again but it's still there. Sorry but I'm not gonna hang around. Every small board I've seen that allowed Tor and didn't discriminate a bit ended up like this and died quickly. Little side rant but this is all people do with Tor, nobody cares about "freedom" it's all about breaking the law. The only board I've seen survive was Lainchan but they had several mods who deleted that shit the second it popped up.

>>302 Also, one of the mods on a certain other furry imageboard has stated that at least 90% of the spam is russian. Make of that what you will.

Why hasn't moderation dealt with the wojak and CP spam on the main board already?

>>300 because sometimes moderation goes out for drinks on a friday night

I highly recommend using cloudflare's csam scanning tool to stop illegal images from appearing on your site. It also helps to block proxies as well. I think as an imageboard community we can stop this shit but we need to start taking measures to put an end to it. If you want to step away from your board for awhile don't leave posting open. It will get spammed. Just put it in read only until you come back. And yes, I'm posting this on all the imageboards I find. No I'm not a bot.

The Webring wants YOU Anonymous 04/28/2020 (Tue) 17:53:12 No. 187 [Reply]

Hey there, furry lads,
I was wondering if you guys were any interested in joining the Webring, which is a federated system of imageboards, think of it as a group of sister boards helping each other out in times of need and advertising each other's website (but to anonymous imageboard posters). It would really help with our lack of certain boards that you yourself already host. Lemme know if you're interested and if you are, consider browsing anon.cafe or fatchan.org to join the project.
Thank you for your time.

Beware of the Board Federation Anonymous 01/23/2021 (Sat) 12:08:14 No. 216

I am not sure if this a serious post or not, but I'll give some shitty counter-points:
>anons over there might despise anything having still connection with 4chan (in your case - /trash/ furry general threads backup) I didn't lurked 4~~cuck~~chan for a long of time (thanks to webring mentality), but some general threads were alright, including /xen/.
>although there's already /furry/ board, but it's mostly bumped by and is full of <buc< shit nowadays
>anons on the various IBs of webring hates each other for many of reasons that includes, but not limited to IB Admin allowing to host certain fetish board
>webring needs to be updated if new IB joins, and it's seems to even possible for one IB admin to "blacklist" other IB from showing up in their board list, although it's supposed to happen if said other IB is being shady
>there's no separate entity/site but maybe I didn't lurked good enough to check current webring without board blacklisting, only through related IBs. This causing conspiracy about IBs fighting for webring control, thus creating pic related. On positive note, however - anon.cafe hosts /shelter/ for anyone in the webring.
>if boards creation is allowed, it's either 8moe cancer (unrestricted-sh board creation - spams webring + defeats the point) or "please make an account and fill the form and we'll say if we want this kind board or not" while not tipping on what content they look for, don't mind or will refuse. Oh boy, I sure like to create useless accounts.

Yes, I am aware of necroposting.

This sounds like a good idea, if it doesn't bring drama here or propels this IB into their drama.
