Yes, I will try to work on maeking it so it changes as it used to soon. Maybe ChatGPT-san may be helpful now...
I will also open a ２ちゃん board very soon for banners, it has been on my mind for a long time, but the only reason I didn't do yet is that I tried making a modified /banner/... Which didn't work out. I could have the ordinary /banner/ back as well, but I liek the ２ちゃん idea better

btw here is the Gmod 9 one

I'll be sure to make more banners once you figure that thing out

I requested Moetan in 2020 and you guys still haven't watched it...

It's been in decline since around 2010, but the decline has steepened significantly in the last couple of years. These days the general impression is that it's a depopulated "has-been" website with poor moderation and an aging userbase (many of whom are in their 40s-50s), as well as the perception that most remaining users are mentally ill and the site being filled with garbage, and that younger people are generally using Twitter and Instagram instead (in addition to YouTube and TikTok)

5ch only gets around twice as many posts per day than 4chan now (a site which is also down from what it used to be, especially if you take /pol/ out of the equation), whereas it used to be significantly higher

There's tons of Japanese link collection sites out there, but the majority of them are exclusively for pr0nz and/or haven't been updated within the last 10 or 20 years... (;´Д`)

However, with the help of archive.org you can discover some great stuff from bygone internet eras. Anyway here's a few random Japanese link collections:

Here's some moar examples of old Japanese script sites - there's tons more out there, but these are some of the more historically notable ones:

CGI Rescue [1995-present, but only a handful of minor fixes to the various scripts since the 2000s]
https://www.rescue.ne.jp/
Very influentual script site, especially for Japanese BBSes. Back in the late 90s, Rescue's MiniBBS was the de facto free Japanese BBS script, with many of the scripts featured below either being modified versions of MiniBBS, or starting out as some kind of clone/rewrite of MiniBBS

This post was about historical resources for Japanese BBS history, including Ayashii World & Amezou

One of the main resources that most subsequent documents about early Japanese BBS history are based on (including most of the English-langauge ones) is this document compiled by bxjp. Be warned that it contains his personal opinions and biases towards certain sites, and doesn't cover every single site that ever existed back then, so be careful before treating it as gospel:

There's also this book 教科書には載らないニッポンのインターネットの歴史教科書 (The Textbook of Japanese Internet History That Doesn't Appear in Textbooks), which was published in 2005 and contains a cleaned-up version of the same timeline plus some extra interviews, articles, etc:

The art in my 90s sonic teh hedgehog comics > any crappy comic today

That said, the art is the least of their problems today - good art won't fix all the lame and over-pretentious stories & characters!

>That said, the art is the least of their problems today - good art won't fix all the lame and over-pretentious stories & characters!

Right you are. I don't know why, but comics has always been obssessed with rehabilitating its image. Comics could never accept it's reputation as an outgrowth of pulp art-- since maybe the 1980s it's always tried to be something 'more'. "Comics aren't for kids anymore!!!" (How many times have I heard that phrase over the years (´ー`)).This desperation to justify itself has led to probably the most pretentious bullshit ever seen in any medium ever, and is probably behind the 'dull realism' movement in the art. Notice how they had to borrow from manga to give comics some semblance of life?

Yeah there's definitely a graphic element that was lost. They all look like TV screenshots now (´ー`)

711chan (.net) has an unofficial "rule 8", focuses on old imageboard culture too but says that "it won't be the dominating theme"

There's plenty of places that will delete Rule 8-like things on sight, but they usually have their own issues

Particularly with allowing/encouraging the kinds of late-2000s/early-2010s AIDS that came before all the mid-2010s AIDS, while also banning/discouraging things that were commonplace in the early-to-mid 2000s or earlier

I don't mean anything bad for them but with lolwut (owner of VidLii, criticized for being too much of a free speech advocate) as admin, I doubt they would stay that way for much longer. Teh only reason it seems fun right now is because it was shared on Heyuri. Same story for world2ch. And if you visit enough other BBSes, you can take a guess which site's userbase makes bad posts on those sites too

>>62005

Correct, R8 is not a simple matter of deleting s*yj*ks and pepe images.

>>62003
I just showed up here 20 minutes ago and rule 8 seems pretty great!

I wondered the same thing too, the answer is apparently at here: https://2ch.sh/src/2502.jpg
TLDR: They copy others' styles rather than creating their own

I tried copying anime myself at some point (OP of https://img.heyuri.net/o/potiboard.php?res=204 here), but I think I am just not made for drawing. Even drawing one proper line is too hard for me (;´Д`)

Look at almost any young Japanese child's drawings, and you'll see it usually already has that distinctive anime/manga style and quality to it, even if it doesn't have realistic anatomy, perspective, etc. - not a malformed attempt at forcing the style into existence while still using Western techniques and practices, but the real deal

When I was around 7-8 years old, we had a Japanese kid who'd moved to our country join our class, and he was lightyears ahead in terms of drawing ability to everyone else. Pokemon was the big thing at the time, and we'd all marvel at how his Pikachus and other Pokemon (including some we'd never seen before cuz gen 2 hadn't reached the West yet) looked virtually identical to the show

It's clear that the Japanese learn and adopt the style at a very young age by copying what they see around them - they see it on posters, in advertising, in books, in manga, on TV, in their friends' drawings, etc. It's also long been suggested that even the way the Japanese writing system is taught and practiced (and I believe it's fairly strict) plays a big part in how they form their lines, as well as how they copy

If you ask me, it's because the internet made finding obscure stuff way easier, and at this point, the mainstream is the worst it's ever been. There are more people pushing out to the edges. Even normie-minded people who usually wouldn't be there, but now can easily, thanks to the Net.(´ー`)

No reporting.In my experience there's always one fag who reports literally every thread.

Besides, Heyuri is still small enough that if anything goes amiss the mods can see it in pretty good time.

Heyuri takes no responsibility for any unwanted b0ners or faps that may be experienced while viewing the website

>if it's not dead, it will probably have an equivalent amount of boards to 4chan or 2ch
"MOAR BOARDZ ヽ(´∇`)ノ" only makes sense when there's:
A) enough users that the site would benefit from splitting the traffic (1. cuz it's more manageable in terms of moderation, 2. cuz these types of BBSes really aren't made for housing large populations or high post activity), or
B) there's a high level of drama and poop-throwing over a controversial topic, and users on both sides of the argument would be happier if they were segregated

Otherwise you're just spreading the userbase too thin for no reason, and - especially for new sites - making it pointlessly difficult for new users to know where to lurk and where to post

On any site of this ilk with many boards and many users, you will see that most users are cooped up on 1 to a handful of boards while the rest of the boards range from teh slow to comatose. If there's many boards and only a few users, the site will feel like a ghost town with a few vagrants aimlessly wandering around talking to themselves (;´Д`)

But if there's a few users and only a few boards (or 1 board), suddenly users are able to gather, the site feels livelier, and the userbase is able to sustain itself or even grow ヽ(´∇`)ノ

>i want it to be big so bad
same, but we gotta wait ヽ(`Д´)ノ

>Otherwise you're just spreading the userbase too thin for no reason
I think that the more boards there are, the more it hurts a /b/ board (or the equivalent for that imageboard).
If every hobby, interest, or topic that has any sizeful discussion splinters into its own board, then what's left for /b/? (´ー`)

>then what's left for /b/?
if your general isn't like channel4's i dont think you should have issues with your general (more people would probably use the general anyways)
i'm not a fan of the how separated every little topic is for futaba and 2ch but it's nice to have a little more than a /b/ (・∀・)

>If every hobby, interest, or topic that has any sizeful discussion splinters into its own board, then what's left for /b/? (´ー`)
There's a knock-on effect too - boards that seem fast and active will attract more users and posts, while boards that seem slow and inactive will slowly bleed users until there's practically nobody left. This isn't just true for bulletin boards, but human social structures in general - people go where the people are, and if a place looks dead then they won't stick around

>i'm not a fan of the how separated every little topic is for futaba and 2ch
On both Futaba and 5ch, the vast majority of users are gathered on a single or couple of boards. There's a handful of other boards with a small percentage of the activity to the top ones, while the rest are ghost towns

Even a site with a fraction of the userbase of 5ch or Futaba can feel really alive and active just by consolidating all their activity to a single or couple of boards. We've even seen this play out on Heyuri several times whenever more boards were added and were later removed

in my eyes, what it means to be a user on this site (or heyurian, if that's what we're going with), is to have a carefree way of going about posting here. not enough to pay no mind to teh rulez , but enough to sit back and play along with whatever crazy or lewd shit we throw at each other.

to put it another way, it's like playing catch with someone. if this were another site like le 4chinz, your buddy would be throwing the ball straight at your own pair and would laugh his ass off at your expense.

meanwhile here, it's just like passing the ball back and forth; there's understanding between you and the other dude. there's trust that neither will throw the ball too high, but high enough that the game doesn't get boring.
and though your bud may be a bit slow to respond, it makes it all the more worthwhile when he changes up the game.

i'm not even sure if that made any sense, but that's par for the course with heyuri philosophy

Heyuri to me is a place where relatively like-minded netizens hang out and collaborate to produce things of awesomeness, hawtness, and LOLs to entertain each other - whether it's a funny/informative reply, an epic shop, a dump of a particular fetish/character, a series of oekaki, a flash animation, a deep dive into internet archaeology, or efforts to improve the website itself

This is what the internet is when it's at its best, regardless of time or place

>to put it another way, it's like playing catch with someone. if this were another site like le 4chinz, your buddy would be throwing the ball straight at your own pair and would laugh his ass off at your expense.
>meanwhile here, it's just like passing the ball back and forth; there's understanding between you and the other dude. there's trust that neither will throw the ball too high, but high enough that the game doesn't get boring.
>and though your bud may be a bit slow to respond, it makes it all the more worthwhile when he changes up the game.
I think that's a great way of putting it - though I'd say at this point 4chan is less liek ur buddy throwing a ball at ur nuts for the lulz, and more like some obnoxious little kid ridiculing anyone for even attempting to pick up the ball cuz they've mislearned that playing catch is a Reddit thing to do

I'd say being a Heyurian (or Heyurizen) means using the power of the internetz for good.
Heyuri is about as free as you can get without being a 'free speech' website, and the users don't take that as some challenge to post the most shocking content they can find or have never ending mad-ons for blacks or gays or whatever.
Heyuri is truly irreverent, not in that puffed up, confrontational way you see on 4chinz,and other imageboards that take after it, but in this wonderful way that leads to epic lolz and awesome porn and lots of great OC.
Heyurians are smart without being overly pretentious, politically incorrect without trying to prove anything, are silly,but can hold a real discussion if it's worthwhile, and are goddamned MASTERS of OC!
Heyurians are not self-serving or lazy, we don't recycle the same lame jokes that permeate the greater internet,we don't use variations on templates, when a thread is started that seems to benefit no-one but OP it gets ignored, or turned into something that produces lolz for all.
I think we could use a few moar users,(not many, that would kill Heyuri's soul), but Heyuri is already pretty astounding.

Basically being a Heyurian means winning the internet

i just realized i never said what i felt about what it means... so i'll say it nao!!

heyuri is an interesting specimen in the sea of the internetz. yes, it may have some less-than-normal (or desired) content to most ppl, but maybe that's what makes heyuri special. maybe it'll change in the future. but as heyuri stands right now, it's a comfy area to hang out for a short moment of my day. and it makes me feel less alone than i do on the most darkest of days. to be a heyurian is to a certain part of yourself, regardless on what being 'yourself' is, without the guise of shit posts (not shitposts) to mud the waters of self.

as i said in an /o/ post a week or so ago; "for a brief moment in space and time, heyuri was here. and i was fortunate enough to be there with you"

I like cute girls with short hair ヽ(´∇`)ノ

About 2 and a half years ago, and also rite now: https://img.heyuri.net/f/

I too really want a /f/ as well...
The one linked above got b0rked, and it was a buggy board before that

There doesn't seem to be any open sourced flash board softwares (or that I could find) sadly, so I need to find a volunteer PHP dev to work on it. I would hire a non-volunteer one, but I don't have any income for now
Alternatively Kolyma's dev is back too, but obviously Heyuri doesn't have much to do with them besides using kokonotsuba anymore so I don't know if they would work on /f/

>>61771
i wish i knew programming enough to help with that. i really want like a swf/flash board in like the golden age of /f/
