• 406 - Name Not Acceptable (2024-12-05 18:22 ID:b99LGkup )
• Every time I find a new textboard, I keep seeing the same names over and over. "kuz", "heyuri", "4x13", and I sense a general atmosphere where everybody knows each other. I remember namefags in my day, but it's different from that because it feels like everybody knows each other even when they're posting anonymously. \n\n

• I would like to see more niche boards instead of people just copying the same staple textboards like /lounge/, /vip/, /prog/, /anime/, whatever. \n\n I want, for instance, a board for discussing bomberman games, a board for the MS Dos game Jetpack, a board for gardening, a board for chess (no other board games allowed), a board for baroque music, a board for the sanskrit language, and a board for radio collectors. \n\n

• Even though it's not fully a txtboard, this is unironically true. I tried using it for a while because I like their philosophy of forbidding 2010s+ topics & encouraging OC. Since every site these days always gets overrun with the same shallow nigger this, tranny that. Most of them really are underage and some have even posted nudes, but they never get perm banned, they're told to just not explicitly state their age in the posts. They hang out in the chatroom all day linking to each others sites, sorta like what >>2 said.
• Once someone started dumping tons of medical journals of "legal" cp, I gave up. \n\n The whole concept of image/text boards is so niche. Any that last more than a few years become quite well known because no one who isn't already familiar with them likes or understands the point of them. \n\n I've seen many tiktok children posting about 4chan, asking "i dont get it, its ugly, how do i use it" purely because it has this big spooky reputation as some dark-web adjacent website. \n\n IMO the closest thing to a new audience these sites can get are the kids who are into neocities,spacehey,nekoweb old internet larp sites. But while they like the aesthetic of "old web", they'll mostly always have a link their discord,(or eqiv) to have a real instant msg conversation. \n\n

• > > you'd have to be careful though, sounds like it could be exploitedIn a world full of anonymizers, bots and spammer sweatshops, I feel like "careful" isn't good enough any more. You either have to commit to constantly cleaning up the mess bad actors make like we see here, make people have accounts/verification hoops to jump through that kind of defeats the point, or maybe you have some genius solution that's beyond my ability to think up. \n\n This is why we can't have nice things. \n\n

• >>1 \n\n 4x13 is Archdork's site. He unironically does a lot to keep old textboard/imageboard culture and sites alive though, even writing new software to host boards. He used to be a yuge faggot though, especially when he posted as Tokiko on /jp/ but he's like 30 years old now so he's a lot more tolerable. \n\n kuz I forget but I think that's just another user that has been around for a while... \n\n There are some other namefags that have been around since the original world2ch days that are still lurking around boards and IRC channels too. \n\n Heyuri is an imageboard that's mostly used by zoomers who want to relive the early 2000s era of English imageboard culture. I kinda respect them for keeping it alive, but I'm nearly 40 now so the vibe of that board isn't really my thing anymore. \n\n

I kind of regret not getting into the IRCs and whatever else early oldfags were also on.

But it's 99.9% just idling at this point. Discord was the final nail in the coffin that was IRC, so most people left and it really serves no purpose anymore. Old timers still hang around though because it takes so little effort to keep a client or BNC connected to a server. But yeah at this point - besides the random joining and parting, or a "hi" then a disconnect - we're all just quietly idling. But if you stick around and talk, someone will reply. \n\n

• I don't think it's that bizarre. See near the top left of the image, it says "Raspberry Heaven reunion 2007". #raspberryheaven was a place where it was common for users to browse 2channel and Futaba Channel for new memes, art, and interesting threads (interesting because they are a foreign net culture). I've definitely read this somewhere but I can't remember where, maybe on Nameless Rumia's wiki.
• What probably happened was someone wanted to make a reunion type of "roll call", noting all the popular names in the IRC channel. They love Futaba memes, so what better way to make an image that includes everyone than pasting their names onto Futaba Channel characters. And that image was probably found by browsing Futaba Channel for interesting things, like I wrote earlier. \n\n I'm not one of the posters from >>34 onwards by the way. \n\n
