any publicity is "good" publicity. but the writer seems pretty stupid if you ask me.

Some pointless rambling mixed with vague ranting about kuz and kolyma. Has barely anything to do with Heyuri (with only one mention of it, too). Don't see much of a point of leaving it up, so I went and removed it. ┐(ﾟ～ﾟ)┌

I don't understand the purpose of the page itself, as I don't know Russian, so it remains up. Anyone else is welcome to explain what it's about.

I am pretty sure it's just a random guy talking about himself. Here is a (rough) google translation of the second section, called "general conspiracy"

>for some reason, everything that lives on the expanses of the world wide web is somehow set against me. wherever I am, bans, kicks, mutes are flying in my direction from everywhere; my traces are being removed... (......) but the most terrible weapon used is a deaf ignore, which there is simply nothing to oppose. What did I do to deserve such an attitude towards myself - it is not clear. everyone is probably jealous of me

i think it's funny you guys should keep it

might be difficult with the hosting, but i totally support what youre saying

>>63517
the government will not keep us down!

You should mail your concerns to the Atlantis bureau of justice

I don't know much about mixi, but why not

We should advertise Heyuri on everywhere, save for places with high levels of R8H8RS

Sure, but it's heyday was 2005-2012 and it's totally irrelevant now...

>>63492
>heyday was 2005-2012
that's exactly why i thought it would be a good idea to advertise on there

No, but I think it only happens when the first letter isn't a latin character
https://github.com/Heyuri/kokonotsuba/issues/10

To an extent, but mostly in the "top kek/praise kek/kekistani" sense, and the more recent "KEKW"

If it's simply used in place of "lol", that's an old WoW reference - "lol" written by Horde players reads as "kek" to Alliance players, and people have been using it in that way since the game was released

...for what it's worth, calling things "Reddit" when they aren't from Reddit is also a little on the Rule 8 side of things

>>63446
What the fuck is KEKW?

>What the fuck is KEKW?
The apparent name of a Twitch emote, which is actually a reaction image from that old webm of that spanish guy laughing. I've seen streamkiddies posting "KEKW" in various places, similar to what they did with "pog/pogchamp/poggers"

It goes without saying, but Twitch "culture" is definitely Rule 8

But I love kids!

They get b& if they are too annoying. There are just a few exceptions to this (jr, lg, and most importantly girls)

Maybe there are also some 16-17 years old users, but they should be mature enough if they're on Heyuri.

No. I don't even know who this is...

It is a typical anime schoolgirl image, but it was used on 4/a/ as a way to post Pepe without getting banned and the image is pretty much exclusively used by that crowd

Then don't use it!

to here https://static.kolyma.org/image/banned/

It should really be hosted on Heyuri, but assuming the link you posted is the correct image URL link, I don't think the problem is on our end...

Should be fixed now.. I am not sure which image was being used so I went with this one: https://static.heyuri.net/image/banned.jpg

I did think about changing it to 2D/Random before, but that could draw unwanted 4/qa/ attention

I liek it as it is - although I've long wished we could go back to referring to Heyuri boards by their titles (as we did for much of "teh golden age") instead of 4chan-like directories

Until the recent December/January user influx, Strange World was consistently the 2nd most active board since it arrived here in July 2021 - even outpacing Off-Topic at times

The same cannot be said for Lounge... but since one of Lounge's primary purposes these days is to house longer-lasting, longer-format discussions, that's to be expected

Both have their purposes since they offer different cultures, different formats, different paces, different forms of AA, etc.

It's things like having multiple generic 4chan-clone imageboards that is redundant, but we already got rid of all of those

/lounge/ is for wise old men
/b/ is for lulzy otakus that make OC's
Ayashii is for short chatroom-like posts and discussions

>>63320
Which is the second most active board now? Are you looking at mod stats, or do I just need to start paying attention?

>>63372
I was just speaking from experience and previous calculations, but it's not hard to calculate

Here's the rankings for the past month (roughly), except for /jp/ which has only been here for 2 weeks:

1. /b/ - 137 PPD (posts per day)
2. /jp/ - 15 PPD
3. /lounge/ - 12 PPD
4. /q/ - 10 PPD
5. /sw/ - 9 PPD
6. /o/ - 2 PPD

For context, here's roughly the same period last year (mid March to mid April 2022):

1. /b/ - 23 PPD
2. /sw/ - 12 PPD
3. /lounge/ - 4 PPD
4. /q/ - 1 PPD
5. /o/ - 0.4 PPD

And here's 1 particular week of May 2022, featuring the "Kaguya Is Now Heyuri Admin" effect:

1. /b/ - 45 PPD
2. /sw/ - 25 PPD
3. /q/ - 10 PPD
4. /lounge/ - 6 PPD
5. /o/ - 1 PPD

>Are you looking at mod stats, or do I just need to start paying attention?
Other than the audit log, I mostly used searched within discord webhook to calculate last year's stats (on kokonotsuba boards) for last year's report on the front page. It's the easiest way and available to anyone.

On /sw/ there are Message logs, and /o/ is slow enough to easily calculate with post numbers (although it's a bit easier to calculate with the mod panel).

Mine works fine, ur VPN server must have gotten B& somewhere along the line

but what's the point of b&s at all if you can always just use Tor?

I can post whatever I want here, and noone can stop me!!!

I just have to inconvenience myself a tiny bit to do it...

>but what's the point of b&s at all if you can always just use Tor?
You have discovered the secret of imageboards: b&hammer is purely for pwning n00bs, hindering bots, and producing LOLs

What is your IP on the VPN? If it's on SpamDB I can probably open it
If there is any reason you don't want to post it here, you can e-mail it or just PM it to me on /b/.

>but what's the point of b&s at all
I think most of our srs bans are reminding users about the rules

Probably because Cloudflare can't identify your browser agent or something like that. Heyuri was getting DDOS'd so this should go away soon

I WILL NOT UPDATE

DEATH TO CIA-FLARE

cool


im really here to show my true love for the godness of the neko loli picture you found

There was a hueg unannounced and unofficial campaign by a user or 2 back in late December/January, but more recently I only know we've been advertised on 5ch due to 日本語's launch

I'm tempted to bring back 2020-style b&hammering of all 2008+ style posts and Serious Business™ - teh RAEG and teh cryingz will be an sight to behold

>>63334
yes, and you can do nothing about it.

I have advertised 日本語 on a few more places, but not anywhere that could bring 4chan-style posts to /b/. As for one user's advertising campaign, out of all places it was primarily done on /v/, but a lot of them (or at least the rule-breaking ones) were b& at the time. Maybe there is still a passive influx of users from 4chan somehow?

Looking back now, I feel like b&hammers in 2020 were more providing more fun than actually banning bad posters, which was great because we didn't have many bad users to begin with. The situation today may be a bit different... That's why we should approach it with more vigilance. Perhaps by checking other posts of users who make bad posts, evaluating whether they meet a specific quality level for Heyuri, and making the final decision to B& or spare them

Also will 63334-san prove 63335-kun wrong or should I do it in his place?

>Looking back now, I feel like b&hammers in 2020 were more providing more fun than actually banning bad posters
There was a lot of both, but I think the difference is that back then, most of us would just LOL and move on if our post was deleted or a ban message appeared, cuz we were all friends and knew the site was just a place for lighthearted fun and silliness

These days there seems to be 1. more humorless trolls just looking to p00p up a good thing, and 2. more anal retentive users who take The Internet and themselves very seriously

>>63334
A year ago I got a three month ban. I'm no longer banned, and I visit this site once per month.

there was a whole poll about rule 8 on 2ch a while ago... like a year or so

>>63295
I believe the poll was shortly before Saint Nakuras disappeared, and that was what, late 2021? It's been a while since that debate was settled

>>63275
Do you plan on beginning to ban file dumps on there? I don't think anyone else benefits from those language learning archives and it only serves to make the site more cluttered and filled up

>Do you plan on beginning to ban file dumps on there?
File dumps are pretty much the purpose of that website

It's worth noting for teh n00bs that ２ちゃん started out as a separate website created by a Heyuri user (Nakura) who merely announced it here, and their intention was to have a completely anonymous and unfettered (besides illegal material) file uploader

But when it ended up effectively only being used by Heyuri users - and then became a semiofficial Heyuri service - some of us suggested that it should probably at least have Rule 8, which was subsequently voted on and agreed to

Nakura mysteriously disappeared around this time (party v&???), and kuz - who was providing the hosting by that point - took over the operation of it. When kuz stepped down as Heyuri admin, I believe kaguya was also put in charge of ２ちゃん since it is basically part of Heyuri at this point

So with all that said, whether 2ちゃん should adopt more of Heyuri's rules (such as Rule 7, which most Serious Business war propaganda for ongoing wars breaks IMHO), or whether "Everything" should continue to house things liek users' personal files or not, are things that still need to be discussed and decided on

>>63342
Yeah hopefully that happens, when I made the thread I meant exactly that but I didn't know that was under Rule 7
