sounds like a good idea

━━━(・∀・)━━━!!
I have been checking the website frequently today, but you guys are faster than me in picking up the rule breakers. Lets go team!

Also make sure that yakuruto isn't sleeping at work again!

Ganbatte!

What is the stance on the word "cunny"? Rules say it belongs under Rule 8 as a buzzword, but I've seen posts using it that have been left up. Has there been a change in the rules?
Personally, these posts seem harmless to me, so I'm content with leaving them alone.

I did remove a post with "coomer" on strange words as thats way more of a buzzword than cunny imo.

>>63597
cunny is a real word and is used often in similar contexts as its "meme" meaning. I'd delete it if it had "UOHHH" or a crying emote in it, but I think it's fine as it is. in general I think we should give the poster the benefit of the doubt when it's not obvious whether the post violates R8. thoughts?

Makes enough sense to me: the closer it reads as if it's a post straight from nu-4chan, it's going in the trash. Just didn't want to end up pissing anybody off.


>>63596
I promise I've been working hard! Last night was pretty uneventful (just a doublepost, nothing more), so I'm sure it looked like I was slacking off. Was not expecting that "fall in love with me" thing. Kinda reminds me of that spammer who called himself Satan. I wonder what happened to that guy.

>>63601
>I wonder what happened to that guy.
Don't summon him! (;´Д`)

>>63601
don't worry - i just wanted to turn it into a running gag.

Did i do the right thing to remove this? First thought i saw it as nu-4chan. 2nd thought it fit into the subject.

Would've been better off to leave it up, since it was meant to poke fun at the website 49778-kun linked. But even I wasn't sure initially what kind of post it was. I only figured it out after the fact. It's better to look at that as an example of reading between the lines before deleting a post. Make sure what you're deleting isn't tongue-in-cheek.
Good thing that user took it like a champ. ヽ(´∇`)ノ

>>63604
yeah i agree, i feelt stupid afterwards. I acted i rush i guess...

god-boy is spamming on strange world again, not that anyone would notice it

also in polls, we could need a ban on him sooner or later.

>What is the stance on the word "cunny"?
Usually B&, I didn't see that Strange World post but it's not really a big deal right now. There is no change in rules. You are free (and encouraged to) give benefit of the doubt when you aren't sure a post is breaking R8

>Last night was pretty uneventful (just a doublepost, nothing more), so I'm sure it looked like I was slacking off
If there is no spam/rule breaking content, it's only normal to not baleet anything. Though this isn't the case lately...

>>63606
There are no proper ban functions on those boards, so there isn't much we can do than manually cleaning it up

Since there are new staff-san enforcing it, and several users making a lot of assumptions about it in recent months, I think it's a good time to reaffirm what Rule 8 is and why it exists

Rule 8 is primarily intended to keep out (roughly) 2008+ Western internet culture - whether it's 4chan, 8chan, Tumblr, Reddit, Twitch, iFunny, or wherever - particularly when it's something commonly used for trolling, derailing, insulting, or instigating flame wars

It's purpose is 1. to allow Heyuri to be its own thing and cultivate a culture of creativity, and 2. to keep the eternally grumpy and shitstirring kinds of "anons" away, so we can better enjoy our LOLs and discussions without Heyuri becoming yet another neverending internet bitchfest, or becoming a semi-abandoned shithole where every other post is just the word "nigger" with a Pepe reaction image

It is not a rule against "everything new" nor "things I personally don't liek". You can discuss new things on Heyuri, and Heyuri does not ban entire niches and fields of interest just because they are "new" or are unpopular with the users of other websites - especially if those things are Japanese in origin

I'd also like to explain Rule 8.d specifically, since it's frequently incorrectly invoked by n00bs these days and could do with being rewritten (again...)

Firstly, back in 2020 it simply said "Ironic shitposting.", and by 2021 it said "Shitposting & and "nu-irony".". Then in 2022 - due to a lot of our n00bs at that time not knowing what shitposting nor ironic shitposting were (which they shouldn't be expected to know, since they're borderline Rule 8 to begin with) - it was changed to it's current form of "Posts intended to annoy or enrage other users without even having the decency to provide LOLs ー most of "nu-4chan" kind of posts fall under this point."

Basically, it was our attempt at saying "ironic shitposting" without saying "ironic shitposting"

So rather than it being a rule against things you are offended by, or against users joking around, it was supposed to be targetting things like the old "WHATA FUCK MAN xD i just fall of my chair kuz i couldnt and i CANT stop laugh xDXDXDXDXDDDDDDDDDDDDXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD" and "t3h PeNgU1N oF d00m!!!!!!!!" copypastas, generic "HURR DURR" responses, etc. that completely took over and ruined many threads on 4chan and other places in the late 2000s and early 2010s, killing off much of the fun-oriented internet culture of old that Heyuri sought to revive and embrace

Is discussing suicide methods banned? This is apparently a thing in Russia, and since kuz still pays for the servers i'm kinda puzzled

>>63609
so are lolis technically
I don't think we have a reason to care about it.

>>63608
Thank you mod-san for the insight! ヽ(´∇`)ノ

yes, thank you. i also feelt we need that

if someone were to post gore what so ever, as the suicide kid. There's nothing that says it cant be there, but it really doesnt fit in, does it?

That really depends on the context, but gore could fit to a thread about suicide. If it's posted in some unrelated thread it'd probably be trolling, which hasn't been an issue so far in that form.

>>63609
Russian internet laws are usually only applied to sites which are directed oriented at a specific illegal topic. A social media won't get shut down over LGBT propaganda but if it was a site specifically for that kind of stuff then it probably would be if brought to the attention of authorities

Every time I check on the website there's nothing to help with. That is a great thing, to have a fast staff team, but I still feel a bit worthless about it （ ´,_ゝ`）

Maybe one day... Keep checking

>>63657
Oh my god! It just happened! Σ(;ﾟДﾟ)

i've no life.

Does anyone see post 561 (spam porn link) still on the front page of /jp/? I deleted it, and it does not show on the manage posts page, but I still see it even after restarting my PC.

>>63661
no, can't see it.

Showed up, then gone when i refreshed the page
>>63660
I have like a quarter of a life maybe

>>63662
WTF?! Tried refreshing cache. I hate you computer!!! (ﾟ血ﾟ#)

try ctrl+shift+r

>>63665
Still there.

Can't seem to delete Lounge posts. They don't show up under new posts when I login. What's the method for deleting posts on that board? (´ー`)
This isn't urgent by the way, I just figured I'd bring this up since I saw a triplepost last night and couldn't delete it. (There's also a bot spam post just as finished writing this. Speak of the devil).

that's weird, it worked for me
it works just like it does on /b/, /jp/, and /q/

>Please press "Update" after managing posts.
I forgot to tell about this, but the buttan name changed to "Rebuild". You must press it after deleting posts

I feel like I am not doing enough (´～`)

that's just because there are not enough spam posts and rule-breaking posts to keep all the mods busy. that's a good thing
if you feel like you're not doing enough on a day-to-day basis, maybe you can think of yourself as a reserve mod who will act when needed

You forgot about our most heavy duty, and that its to post and have fun. Making any type of OC is welcomed too.

If we want new user we've to spread to other boards, and while doing so also comes with new user that are unaware with the rules. The regular heyurians know about the rules thus it makes the manage easier. I wanna play on difficulty!

I made this the other days, just changed some things... Does this gif feel heyuri to us? Should I post it to others boards to attract some new users? Maybe our friends at Wapchan?

No, not on wapchan. They are very slow compared to us and all their users are aware of Heyuri. Pushing more Heyuri discussion there would be annoying of us
If you want to work on getting moar users, maybe look out for good threads on 4chan's least bad boards to share Heyuri?

>>63724
aye aye, no wapchan for us!

eh, yeah maybe 4chan.. just skeptical overall but i guess.

>>63725
Sometimes there are 4chan nostalgia threads, likely just aim for those
On /wsg/ or /gif/

Thanks, i will have a look out for some good threads.

just checking in to say that i am still here, and i am still posting. hope you guys are having a fine day ヽ(´∇`)ノ

>>63725
Maybe that works with very aggressive moderation (so you can ban 90% of visitors from 4chan as soon as they land here with the intent to shit the place up as always).

>Maybe that works with very aggressive moderation (so you can ban 90% of visitors from 4chan as soon as they land here with the intent to shit the place up as always).
That's the way we always used to do it - throw caution to the wind, advertise liek crazy, then filter out all teh lamers via b&hammer

However, during the unannounced and unexpected late-December/early-January ad campaign to 4chan and other places, there was only kaguya and I moderating Heyuri - that setup was perfectly adequate for how active Heyuri had been for most of the previous 2 years, but with a sudden big influx of several times the amount of usual users & activity, we got totally overwhelmed

Even once things had "settled", keeping up with Heyuri moderation was now significantly more burdensome and stretching us to our limits, but it was difficult to quickly bring anyone new on board since there hadn't been enough time for teh n00bs to lurk and adapt - we would have end up with teh dreaded n00b mods, which sux for everyone

We've got moar hands on deck now, and I think with a little moar time for lurking and assimilating, we can finally go back to our carefree, caution-2-teh-wind ways

On the "kuz has aids" thread someone posted a link to a R8 video, to which some janitor replied "i'll let it stay but beware, that link has R8", and now both were deleted by someone else.
I couldn't decide whether to delete it or let it stay up. Should we discuss whether a post should be deleted or not more often? Or maybe implement better guidelines on what content should be deleted

I was the one who wrote that comment at first, and I then decided to remove both comments as I then decided that my first reaction was wrong after all - as in the end, it was SOY-promotion 900000001!

I often act rather cautious about post I am unsure about and thus leave it to be. If it gets removed, I know wha Kaguya or Mod-sama might be involved or the rest of the staff.

This is just as matter of time before we all get more and more used to how to act. But I think talking about certain post we are unsure about is a good way to go forward. This was a good example.

54 more posts left until 55000, pez! Be on the look-out!!! Σ(;ﾟДﾟ)

Yeah!

spam-kun stands no chance! (´∇`)

does anyone mind if this shit thread gets deleted?
https://img.heyuri.net/b/koko.php?res=56505
it got autosage'd but I figure it warranted deletion

>>63980
What's up with rant threads popping up recently?

Rule 1 is one thing, but you don't need to over-worry about thread derails (save for ones about site-meta) on Heyuri, especially when there is no ongoing discussion in the thread

2/3(?) of the deleted posts were mine and mod-san's

If someone wants to answer OP's question, they can always do so.

I am OP and the one that removed them...

are the irc down too since...Kolyma? Or am i retarded as I might be both.

>>64070
As far as I'm aware we've moved back to #heyuri on Rizon

im retarded, thanks.

Should I use my trip more? I haven't moderated anything in a while due to finals, but I have been browsing Heyrui, and I don't want to make the staff think I bailed out (;´Д`)

New Feature: Delete and Mute
It's useful in the times of spam, details @ https://github.com/Heyuri/kokonotsuba/issues/48

should I start spamming so one of us can test it out by muting me?

you can try muting urself too

HEY MODS!
Wallpaper board when?

Just use Off-Topic for stuff like that

>>64145
Just make a wallpaper thread on /b/. Boards are created only about topics that can't be covered on /b/ already.

>>64147
alright, t. hanks

how is everyone? just applied to a college ヽ(´∇`)ノ

I've been coding new features for kokonotsuba because i've had a lot of free time (which is going to change soon, but i'll still find some time to code), meanwhile /b/ has been a bit quiet recently, or at least today
Do we even have any developers besides me right now?

I have nothing to report except maybe needing more sleep

>just applied to a college
Same here, at the beginning of the month. I got accepted (somehow), and already picked out my classes. I hope you have more of a clue what you're doing there than I do. (;ﾟДﾟ)

In the meantime, i'm gonna take a look at the wiki and see if there's more I can do

But congrats, man!

I forgot to say that in my previous post
Please forgive me, I just woke up

Nope! ━━━(・∀・)━━━!!

Noep! Kokonotsuba pretty much only gets developed when someone picks it up

That means i'm the current developer ヽ(´∇`)ノ for now

should advertising like this be deleted?
https://img.heyuri.net/b/koko.php?res=62693
I've seen similar posts get deleted before so I was wondering if it's appropriate for me to do so.
also, I dislike how he chose to open up with "my site is better than your site"

>I dislike how he chose to open up with "my site is better than your site"
it's especially annoying since his site is clearly NOT better than ours, by the way!

>>64333
Doesn't look like many LOLs are being had. It calls for a delete!

>>62973
I only removed one 2x post. Someone else removed the picture?

do we remove "kuz has aids" post? As it for sure a spam thing from... shit-party.

>As it for sure a spam thing from... shit-party
That particular post seemed to be, so I deleted.

>>64427
I vote yes since it was already posted a couple of times back when the "news" first broke, and it serves no purpose at this point besides stirring drama and having "that" crowd come here to post references to their website... but I'll leave it up to kaguya

>>64428
I have nothing to do with that website, I was just shocked when I read it for the first time.

>>64473
If ur the guy who made >>64471 , the posts you're replying to ITT are from around 10 hours ago and were referring to a different thread about the exact same topic on /b/ earlier today (yesterday? lol timezones)

Since these threads are suddenly appearing within a relatively short timeframe about a topic that already came and went on Heyuri back when the news first broke (weeks ago? months ago? time is blurry...), it appears as if there's sum outside shenanigans going on

That's why ur thread (and others before yours) were baleeted

Ah, I just looked at my web history - it was first discussed here around May 18th-19th

Old news is old!

>>64474
>>64475
I just learned about it for the first time because of this: kolyma.net

Im assuming others did too. This is big news considering kuz pays for heyuris hosting, kuz is known outside of the soyjak site you know. He used to be the admin here

K, but it's already been brought up and discussed here several times over the past 2 months, and was even referenced during the recent Townhall just 4-5 days ago

The only way someone on Heyuri wouldn't know about it by now is if they didn't use this website, minus coming here today to bring us the Breaking Slowpoke News that kuz has AIDS

a raider came back. I muted him but more may come

>>63600
'cunny' is a real word but it's very vulgar and isn't used much at all.

I'm a native English speaker and I've never once heard someone refer to the VAGINA as 'cunny' outside of the internet in obvious reference to the meme.
I only use the term myself to refer to European rabbits and that's the only use I've heard bar the usage of it as a term for a woman in the same you'd call a woman a bunny that I read in an old book once.

I'd consider it rule 8 because it's a 99.9% chance the person using it is using it because of those memes rather than it actually being something they'd say normally.

your own image says that it's a rumor and is only backed by circumstantial evidence and speculation, so please don't present it as fact
kuz ain't part of the stuff anymore either, but idk whether he still hangs around here or not. maybe kaguya and mod-sama will weigh in

the post I replied to disappeared... probably for the best

For the reasons explained on >>64429 onwards, you don't need to hesitate before deleting any mentions of kuz if you think it doesn't belong to Heyuri from now on

understood

>kuz ain't part of the stuff anymore either, but idk whether he still hangs around here or not.
He occasionally visits, and he still pays for, maintains, and helps out with certain aspects of Heyuri's infrastructure

>you don't need to hesitate before deleting any mentions of kuz if you think it doesn't belong to Heyuri from now on
I've been meaning to bring this up for teh ages, but does our wiki article on kuz really need all of that non-Heyuri crap in it?

I think it should be focused on his time here, and not stuff that's completely irrelevant, was never at any point mentioned or posted on Heyuri, Rule 8 websites, and general Serious Business. It was almost entirely written by "Darksjkfanatic" (dark s*yjak fanatic) and Angeleno, and reads like something from a completely different and much crappier website

>>64522
>I'm a native English speaker and I've never once heard someone refer to the VAGINA as 'cunny' outside of the internet in obvious reference to the meme.
It's originally from British English, and it's more of a childish term than vulgar. I've heard it used casually on family-friendly TV before

That said, I never saw it online until the last few years with 4chan adopting it

>>64534
>but does our wiki article on kuz really need all of that non-Heyuri crap in it?
I guess not, Heyurify it if you want to
Angeleno can migrate whatever he wants to save to his soyjak wiki from our's old revisions if he wants to.

We should continue on https://wiki.heyuri.net/index.php?title=Talk:Kuz if there is anything more to discuss

>>64535
I've never heard a child say it, it is a dimunitive but 'cunt' becoming offensive meant that kids also stopped using it as they wouldn't have learnt about 'cunt'.
Admittedly it's only really offensive if you know what 'cunt' is so I guess it being used on TV as an attempt at a child friendly alternative to foo-foo (what I called it as a kid) is believable.
>That said, I never saw it online until the last few years with 4chan adopting it
Yep, never seen it online except to the cute and funny/lolicon meme which really confused me the first time I saw it around.

Don't doubt the term got used in some eromanga translation because the translator used a thesaurus to translate some silly form of manko but the usage ends up being rule 8.

some kind of anti-kuz bot is spamming the boards. can staff-sama help handle it plz?

>>64522
> he still pays for, maintains, and helps out with certain aspects of Heyuri's infrastructure
kuz is spy, is kuz to be trusted? by what moral standard does kuz operate or live by?

would it be a good idea to make the Rules page accessible from all boards (or at least, the kokonotsuba boards) rather than from just the Homepage? that way it's easier to reference for existing users, and newbies are more likely to see it and learn about teh rules in the first place

Do you mean accessible from anywhere, including catalog?

Because it's already pinned underneath the comment field

>>64655
oh, you're right.
I just always expect to find it at the top right for some reason

who removed the "spam" to remove the wall of magnet link, it was rather nice of him...

>>64660

Oh... (;ﾟ∀ﾟ) I didn't get what the point of those posts were (even though they said so in the posts themselves). I was using catalog so it didn't occur to me that would have been for the purpose of cleaning up the wall of text on the first page.

Soz for that, Magnet OP

There's (hopefully) going to be a new bbcode tag for things like that, with limited height and a scrollbar.
Waiting for Kaguya's input on that right now.

>There's (hopefully) going to be a new bbcode tag for things like that, with limited height and a scrollbar.
I imagine most longposters wouldn't use it, either intentionally or cuz they haven't lurked the BBCode Reference page

I think it'd be better to just auto-scrollify every post longer than X characters/lines on teh index, and have them show in full in reply mode

I will now start handing out the passwords for CGI stuffz to you. It's a link that will expire in 7 days from this post's date, let me know if you don't see it in time.

This may help too: https://up.heyuri.net/src/2917.txt

Haaaiii~~~ Kaguya-sensei!

goddammit, why did my thread get deleted again?

>goddammit, why did my thread get deleted again?
Make a thread here about it and post details about what it consisted of

Sidenote: this thread is another totally redundant "site discussion general on the site discussion board" that should probably be locked b4 it b0rks teh software...

>>64847
I just posted a Residents song with the topic "her voice is so cute"

>>64848
wasn't that one posted on /q/? if so, makes sense why it was deleted. reference rule 5

>>64849
was it? damn, maybe I posted on /q/ thinking it was /b/
if that's the case I apologize

I accidentally deleted the evil thread on lounge, a spam thread popped up and someone deleted it before me yet muscle memory made me delete a regular thread because of how many times i've done it already...
Forgive me...

Accidents happen, don't worry about it
Change the way you delete threads from now on. Instead of the live frontend, get used to using "Manage posts" panel and delete the latest post from the top instead

Now that is an evil action

what's happening w/ the rule 7 guy? i haven't been too active lately cuz' life stuff ( sorry :( ) but there hasn't really been a mod response yet, and it'd be nice to know

>>65243
There seems to be a rogue mod who bans user who didn't b0rk any rules, just because he didn't like their threads. He doesn't even give a reason in the "reason" filed in the ban message. Kagu~nya should do something about it

>>65244
there are only 2 people who can ban, so if someone's getting banned, it's an executive decision. all us janitors can only delete and mute (for a short while)

There are no bans filed without any reason stated. (??? on the list was done by me against someone who was apparently flaming in threads in some indian language...).

Besides, Heyuri isn't about following rules exactly as how they are written. If your thread got deleted, there is probably a good reason behind it. You can ask on this board about it to learn and fix your posting behavior. Or at least, you can use common sense to not repeatedly make the same kind of posts

Tens of users post every day without their posts being deleted. Out of everyone, if three or so users always end up getting banned, maybe teh fault isn't in staff...

PS: This thread will be locked soon

>>65246
>There are no bans filed without any reason stated
What's pic rel then?

Honestly, I have no idea. There is no ban on the list with that times. Can you just wait it out and act as if that has never happened please?

NVM, I didn't realize today was the 19th - I thought you just took it. I thought there was another bug
We can't see past bans (so this needs confirmation), but it was probably a range TOR block, which should have been specified even if it was apparent.

kagy is so cute when he gets confused...

>>65251
Not going to mention individual cases but this happened a lot while developing kokonotsuba (・∀・)
Reporting in too. I haven't tripped in a while but i'm still here watching every single post you make

As a vpn user, there have been many cases which my ip has been blocked / added to spamlist. I also received ban-warning i know for certain wasn't towards me. This is teh issue with sharing teh same IP-addresses - if you use teh same service, which has been teh case.

With these reason in mind, I often do not jump around with my IP adresses to much and stay with in same region.
