Yeah, I already did. Sounds like a story cooked up to avoid sounding too obsessive.
"Oh yeah I was passing by the living room, and like, the TV happened to be on, and there was this chick-flick playing--i mean--HAHA I MEAN IT'S NOT LIKE I ACTUALLY WATCH THAT CRAP LOL HAHAHA

>>66322
Regardless of the veracity of my story (please keep in mind I live and study with young people, and am not a recluse nor a NEET) anyone slightly familiar with today's internet can spot a social media-derived meme, because, and I've said this already, they are very much all the same.
So even if I hadn't seen my, dare I say, "normalfag" colleague searching the picture to use as an avatar on scratch.mit.edu (I'm a first year computer science student) I would've instantly recognize it as a social media-derived "meme".

How DARE she post a gif of a hamster. Sacrilege! Rule 8 was meant to protect us from... *checks notes*... gifs that OP doesnt like

I hate the namewhores too but your still being retarded and the mod who deleted it is too

For your information, I deleted it

>>66327
You are (slightly) retarded. But since you are cute, we all still love you

66308-san brings up a good point too - we have one camp of users always trying to pull site staff into being more lenient, and another camp of users always trying to pull site staff into being more strict. We can't please both camps at once. At best, all we can do is find a "happy" medium that "pleases" both equally (AKA not at all)

Regarding staff changes and rule implementation changes made in the "past half a year" or "around November", from what I recall:
- In September 2023, we figured out range bans were possible, and I also took a vacation and big moderation break for much of that month
- In December, kaguya b& Tor due to frequent abuse from ban evaders
- Around New Year's (I think?), one of teh April 2023 janitors was promoted to mod (meaning they can now hand out bans and change thread statuses rather than just delete posts and mute users)
- I've been less active in general over this period cuz I've been mostly working on Heyuri★CGI-related projects, and otherwise opting to take it easy

Besides that, there's been no changes to Rule 8 since the time "needlessly angry/argumentative posts" was added in April 2023, nor any changes to how it's enforced (at least on my part)

Regarding making Rule 8 clearer: it's impossible for us to list every single thing that it may or may not cover + all contextual nuances. Such a list would also 1. be deserving of ridicule, and 2. be a convenient reference for those who wish to crap up Heyuri with it. The things that are currently listed give you a rough outline of what kind of thing isn't welcome, and it's mostly "phrases/images that are popular to troll with on 4chan and other troll-centric websites in modern times" plus (and this is where it's more difficult to determine) "various aspects of modern mainstream Western 'meme' culture"

In general, we've always stated that Rule 8 does NOT mean anything that's new/popular, and I've always advised Heyuri staff-san to leave things alone for kaguya or someone to deal with if they're not absolutely sure something breaks Rule 8 and to not immediately delete/ban something just because a report was made

kaguya ## Admin 2024/02/25(Sun)10:37:29 ID:ADMIN No.66310

Herez something to note: I'm actually way more lax about enforcing Rule 8 than I was around 2021~2022. You could have criticized me for your points 3 and 4 back then since I b& users who I didn't like the attitude of liek a lot more often
Enforcing of R8 is highly subjective, but can say I largely agree with anonwaha's approach. The other mod-san can be more strict or lax on times, and I think Nakura used to be also quite strict while he was around. At the end, this doesn't matter since the fun is being had on Heyuri
As for KYM reports - I'm >>66262 san, I do think it's くだらない but I sometimes decide to go along with it and delete when it's something trivial like unrelated file deletions. I agree with >>66297 in that thread

point 5 is something specific to OP, leaving that aside to handle in background

As for CGI chat: A small portion of the site users are using it. I think its only issue is making certain fun namefags prefer it over BBSes, but there isn't really anything we as moderation can do about their decisions. Another portion of Heyuri users don't want to see a lot of threads by them anyways, so maybe it's the internet kami-sama's gift to us for the sake of peace (´人｀)

>Similarly, did u know there was once plans for Heyuri to have a secret staff-only imageboard?
To maek it clear, Heyuri had a staff chat back in the day too, it was helpful to announce stuff that only mattered for mods. Right now it doesn't matter since I have private communications of all mods to contact when necessary

Thanks for caring enough about Heyuri to create this thread OP

>>66303
Oh, so it's the hamster that spawned this? I was the one who asked for the hamster to be deleted
>When the rule was created, it was meant to keep out the stifling, creativity-destroying repetitive images
It wasn't removed because it's a tik tok meme, it was removed because it's yet another creativity-destroying repetitive low-res picture of an animal with slightly distorted features. That's the problem with all tik tok memes, it's not because they're modern. No, that's not the problem, the problem is that they're repetitive, I mean they're basically copy pasted at this point. You know why? Because no one on tik tok, or twitter or reddit or anywhere basically in the modern internet has any remnant of creativity in their corroded brains.
Now that I have explained the reason of my previous complaint, I actually agree with what OP is trying to say.

>>66321
KAGUYA!!! RULE 8!!!!!! BALEET OR YOU HATE LOLIS!!!!!!

>>66321
>low-res picture of an animal with slightly distorted features
It's hard to explain but there was something I felt uncomfortable about this too, even tiktok aside it just felt out of place. It doesn't have anything to do with creativity though, considering any cat picture could be perfectly fit Heyuri despite one could call them "not creative" or "repetitive" too

is this squad? if the libs are actually torn apart (meaning they just dont disappear when shot) and they react to physics then itd be great, i cant remember what weapons squad has but if theres, say, a big caliber sniper you could cut someone in half and see their torso roll off a hill lmao

i meant to say limbs...

naisu kill those kuffar good OP I used to love those old alien PC games that allowed you to dismember humans and leave the bodyparts for other people to find ヽ(´ー｀)ノ gore in todays games just doesnt feel the same

>is this squad?
its stalker anomaly anon :3

i just looked it up i had no idea a mod could improve graphics to such level

just to make myself clear I only shitpost where I care

n00b like me?
it werks!

>>66284
What about moralfag?
You probably don't see it in many major archives because those threads got deleted.

>>66288
Moralfag is always used with at least some reason, people who say newf*g are just newbies trying to insult other newbies

>Moralfag is always used with at least some reason
In my experience the use without reason is fairly more common

>>66289
>>66290
I don't remember when everyone started saying Amerifag, Techfag, Britfag, Ausfag, etc... But I'm glad nobody seems to be trying to reproduce that; got a little much.

"shitposting" is a R8 word, but ur allowed to make joke articles as long as it's not malicious

>>66278
i'm sorry, can you enlighten me on how exactly shitposting is a rule8 word?

I will just quote these two posts, though I believe there was a better explanation somewhere:

>>61838
>Meaning of the term "shitposting" is unclear, so don't use it. It could either be used to refer posts everyone agrees to be shitty (which will probably break R8) or to having fun making very high-quality posts
>>64890
>it was later decided that the term "shitposting" itself was Rule 8-esque, had too many wildly varying interpretations (from "making low quality posts" to "any form of humor/joke on the internet"), and a lot of our non-imageboard-derived users had no idea what it meant

>>66279
I'm also new, but I don't remember ever reading "shitposting" until like the early-mid 2010s. It was just trolling. Being angry whilst doing it would be flaming. And trolling falls under baiting.

well, what can I say instead of shitposting? qualityposting?

not enough examples to convince it's a new thing
I feel like "x when y" memes were always a thing

Anonymous ## Mod 2024/02/24(Sat)09:12:12 ID:1RvkBKBA No.66251

They weren't always a thing

>>66250
"Me when __" is kind of like greentexts, people always think they're older than they actually are

Quote backlinks were disabled cuz:
1. I believe they were generated server side every time a user viewed a page, slowing the site to a crawl
2. they're mostly an unnecessary nu-4chan (2010s) thing that only serves to inspire a bad culture of "baiting" and "reply whoring" (posts designed to get as many replies as possible, often by being intentionally and superficially controversial)

>>66231
Disingenous reply

>>66231
Genuous reply

If all questionable posts get a Site Discussion thread about them, it will only make sum things awkward

>>66231
Either you're really stupid or you think you're funny >>66212 was refering to words like g*m, c*al and brimst*ne which are not only used next to wojak memes but are also associated with them. (I know the words I listed specifically are usually associated with soyjak varients but you know what I mean)

>>66196
the REAL crime was watching the shitty bluray upscale of the best anime ever

MORE lolis!!

U can click a kaomoji button and then just paste it between the tags

I think teh BBCode generator needs expanding to have every possible option, especially teh AA-related ones

>Isn't there a way to make kaomojis display properly without the kao tag?
There can't possibly be such a way

>I think teh BBCode generator needs expanding to have every possible option, especially teh AA-related ones
The kao tags are already for AA-related kaomoji, it uses the same font as aa tags
