4chan probably shutting down

[The Great Devourer of All]

Just take all the unnecessarily edgy /pol/ stuff and porn boards out of the equation and 4chan would become a much more respected site almost overnight.

[Redsection]

Lets destroy the mods and make this the next 4chan ! * waves a sword *

[Giovenith]

And so dies free speech.

Let's not be melodramatic. 4chan is hardly the only place on the web where you can kick and scream and flame and troll to your heart's content, and there's a bit more backing the principle of free speech in this world than just shitty message boards where memes are created.

[Seylland]

It's better than tumblr.

I've got news for you. Both are shit.

Prove me wrong.

pro-tip: you can't

one is altright discourse hell and the other is radleft discourse hell

at least radleft discourse hell has a block feature

[Benuty]

The last time 4chan went to Tumblr, 3 (alleged) suicides occurred.

3 suicides on Tumblr is a light day.

From everything I've seen, there have been enough suicides on Tumblr that they've depopulated the earth several times over.

Only so many people can handle the immense gay porn.

[Grand Britannia]

NS should take in 4chan refugees.

Pls we're not all bad trolls, we are mostly friendly NEETs.

[New Grestin]

Godspeed, gentlemen. May you find greener pastures to darken.

If only moot had stayed around.

It's only proper for a captain to go down with his ship.

[PaNTuXIa]

And so dies free speech.

Agreed.

I think this is in part fueled by Clinton's mention of Pepe the Frog (praise kek) being racist.

A cartoon frog. Being fucking racist.

And, the media bought into it.

[Fenexia and holochrome]

Have you been on /pol/? we have reasonable fascists here on NSG, but /pol/ is a shithole. There's no ideology beyond calling people cucks and screeching about muh jews.

Uh huh, and they have every right to be that unblinkingly idiotic.

Free speech, as a principle, is very important on the internet. Because if we start banning people from the internet for believing one thing, there is nothing that will stop the banning of people for believing another thing.

Way to take it so seriously, emerald.

[The Emerald Dawn]

The /b/ right now is just a hotbed of transporn and "Blacked" posts. /x/ Is largely the same community of wishful thinkers and attempted spooping. /pol/ is Shitpost, the Shitpostian, the Shitposter has come. /his/ is six people arguing variations of "Hitler Did Nothing Wrong" and "American History is a Lie". /gif/ is the same as /b/, just in mobile picture form. /wsg/ is all attempts at being cute or edgy. /co/ is tumblr-lite. /aco/ is the same four threads all day every day.

All that said? Just because the community isn't always the best in the world, I'd be sad to see their safe haven taken away from them.

Well there is an option to create a new one, it's a matter of funding anyways.

/wsg/ is literally a guilty pleasure of mine

/aco/ <- seriosuly forgot this existed at all tbh

Their safe haven/safe space (heh) is sponsored by businesses. It's either the businesses give less fucks (which I support, especially regarding the Youtube hiccup) or the community does something (which I also support, because Shitpoststan is too much shit, and /b/ needs to clean up their act. They aren't a pornchan)

Hey, I espouse a safe harbor on the internet for all non-illegal activities. Just because they shit on the concept for everyone else, does not mean that they should be forced to live in a world that doesn't have a place for them to do so.

[The Huskar Social Union]

Anyone particularly upset? Im not.

Yes yes, and what did you call that sudden influx of Redditors again?

The Winter of /r/Discontent.

Get out.

[Dagashi Shojo]

Getting rid of /pol/ and porn boards would be amazing for the internet.

The porn boards were fun though.

[PaNTuXIa]

Actually, I consider radical feminism to be the alt-left, the left's equivalent of the alt-right.

#NotAll4chan

Look if I want to keep out tumblristas from this site, you're sure as all hell I'd keep 4chan refugees as well.

Reddit refugees/migrants are beneficial though.

[Dushan]

That would be sad indeed, given that I have only recently started to Browse 4chan motivated through many Posts made on NSG relating to it.

It's not as bad as I thought it was.

Sic transit gloria mundi.

This is a discussion board, I'm going to assume that people making points are interested in discussion of those points. If you're just wanting to shitpost, NSG may not be the best place.

it's because white supremacists used it.

we should stop using cars, white supremacists prolly use them, too.

Plebbit is much more shit than 4Chan.

I mean 4chan isn't the only chan

[The Princes of the Universe]

I fail to see how this is a problem. Everything I've seen and heard come out of there says it's an overflowing cesspool anyway. No great loss.

[PaNTuXIa]

I am.

I happen to be a 4chan member that is left-wing.

[The Emerald Dawn]

The same could easily be said of Tumblr, reddit, and NationStates.

Different tastes.

redleft alt-left same thing

Tumblr has a block feature, and I use it very liberally. Gotta block out bad discourse and nasty porn blogs.

And I am in agreement.

However if push comes to shove, there should be initiative of creating a backup. Just in case...

Because every single discussion needs to have a peer-review level of seriousness.

Exactly.
