Lately since every faggot and his monkey wants a new board I've been thinking we need a better way to gauge interest then just 20 posts of "THIS IS AWESOME" or "SHIT SUCKS" (case in point: LBM mod thread). Enter /sandbox/, if I think a board idea is worth a test run this is where it will go down.

Rules of /sandbox/:

  1. Board title = topic, no off-topic shit (this pretty much for any board on desuchan)
  2. /sandbox/ is a lone ranger she doesn't like to share the spotlight and so only one trail will be run at any given time (so ideas better be good, else your stuck with what you get)
  3. Trails have no time limit. I might think the idea is awesome after 3 days or 3 months, at that time it will be made a permanent board. On the flip side if after 3days/months I think it sucks it will be deleted (sorry no backups or crying) and the next trial will be started. Which brings us to the next point.
  4. Nothing is permanent. If it's in /sandbox/ it might be deleted in the next minute/hour/day/week/etc. You can either fight to have it made permanent or watch it burn. Your choice.

tl;dr http://desuchan.net/sandbox/ /Musak/ - Delicious Musak, you must listen

Merge the RM boards and highlight the more active boards in the other groups.

That got me thinking maybe we should highlight /rm/ as to make sure people see the focus of the board. It won't stick out very much unless we highlight it despite it being in the name of the site.

I myself am still a bit opposed as to merging the maiden boards (at least the more active ones) but if it really needs to be done, we would have to highlight the main focus on the imageboard.

>> No.1614   [Delete]   [Edit]

i suggested merging them a looooooong time ago and got shot down. "sigh" I guess it was just ahead of its time.

Since Desuchan belongs to Interchan, I was wondering if the adminstration would be interested in joining atoplist.net

>> No.1613   [Delete]   [Edit]

I'm no mod but...

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Why don't we post links to desuchan and all of our streams on /b/ every hour every day so we can get more traffic too?

An innocent idea, I know... but just not what we need really.

So conversation has been whirling about on IRC about how to improve Desuchan. Whether or not you think that the quality of the site has been getting better or worse lately, all of us can probably agree that we could handle more traffic (which, hopefully, would translate to more donations/ad revenue, etc--but that's secondary to the point).

All of us have good ideas for boards to add or remove (we've gone over that thread before-->>71), and we have /sandbox/ to try out new ideas. This thread is for more than just board suggestions though; what we're wondering, more generally, is: how can we make Desuchan a more attractive site, and a worthy alternative to the major/minor *chans out there (4chan, 7chan, 420chan, 2chan, whatever else)?

Questions to ask:

  • Who makes up our current userbase? What sort of niches/groups should we be targeting?
  • What are our current offerings (boards, irc, radio/tv) providing to our userbase? Are there ways we could improve and develop these offerings to better meet the needs of our userbase?
  • What are our strengths as an online community? How can we capitalize on them? What are our weaknesses? How can we compensate for or get past them?

You know that this suggestion is asinine and has zero chance of happening, right? This is like trying to fix a leak in the ceiling with a band-aid. Also remember that it would be very easy to make a replacement channel for the IRC-using desuchan people - very little to no benefit to site activity would be gained and massive drama would be involved in the process.

Sup /sugg/. I'm loving the new board theme. It's great and all, but it doesn't really work with frames on. Also it's jarring to go from a burichan front page to a Desudesudesu board. There any plan on converting the rest of te site to the new theme?

I must say, the colours remind me of vomit.

I have to change it :/

Maybe if they looked nicer....

>> No.1521   [Delete]   [Edit]

One day, Suiseiseki had a big plate of spinach, and some past-the-expiry-date milk to wash it down.

But no... it doesn't really look like that.

Maybe add some noodles?

>> No.1522   [Delete]   [Edit]

Well, the problem with making a desu template is that trying to use the correct red and green, with proper saturation and brightness, is going to make your eyes bleed, or at least trigger epileptic seizures a la >>1467 . Whether that's better than puking or not is left as an exercise to the reader.

Personally, I like the colour combo; it's calm, restful, and easy on the eyes. It could use more DESU, but it's good for now. And it's better than the previous version of the same style, with the huge borders around everything.

>> No.1610   [Delete]   [Edit]

If the Top thread post was confined in a box like the replies are then you could make the body background anything. Unfortunately the top thread post isn't grouped correctly so I've never been able to modify it in greasemonkey. Kusaba is more editable than wakaba on the viewers end.

Do we really need more than 10 pages in /tech/?
Its not until page 8 that you get January replies.
I think the same can be said for a lot of boards.
Anything not archiving "win" could probably be trimmed as slow as things are...

>> No.1594   [Delete]   [Edit]

Seconding this. There are a few boards with way too many pages, but as far as I know, storage isn't one of Desuchan's problems.

Either way, it'd look tidier if most or all boards were limited to 10 pages or somewhere around there.

>> No.1596   [Delete]   [Edit]

Well there was a really old thread that was bumped by someone and I was about to reply to a post that was in it... Till I realized that it was one I made last year.
-.-

>> No.1602   [Delete]   [Edit]

You have to remember that boards like these are also sources of information. The more posts you keep (regardless of age), the more information you have for people to sift through. Or else you are going to just have a new thread on the same shit.

Proposing /loli/ be renamed to something else as a board directory. The bots spamming it seem to turn up on any *chan that has /loli/ as the loli board directory. Would changing /loli/ to something still related but less common reduce the amount of spam?

"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
Of cabbages--and kings--
And why the sea is boiling hot--
And whether pigs have wings."

>> No.1576   [Delete]   [Edit]

So do we have any feedback from mods about this? Would it help prevent some bot spam on /loli/ or will it just be wasted effort? I really was just hoping to come up with something simple that would alleviate the work mods have to do just to keep /loli/ clean of the real cp posted by bots.

My hat is off to them for kindly keeping the board around. It's the very reason I came to desuchan and also why I come by and end up checking other boards while I'm here. Thanks guys.

I recently (some minutes ago) added content to the thread http://www.desuchan.net/loli/res/1193.html. However, it didn't get bumped to the first page. Is there a reason for this? Too many images, perhaps?

>> No.1564   [Delete]   [Edit]

Yeah, it doesn't happen often, but if a thread becomes large enough here it can stop bumping. Pretty large limit though, and barring dickery the thread won't be deleted.

>> No.1565   [Delete]   [Edit]

bump limit is 500 posts

>> No.1570   [Delete]   [Edit]

Hey, thanks for contributing to the Non-Risque Loli thread there. Unfortunately, threads stop bumping after 500 posts, as MajorGeek42 said. Same thing happens to many threads thus far (including a Ronery Thread over at /ot/ at one point of time), but shit happens. Again, thanks for the contribution, and keep posting moar.

You or another user of this IP or IP range was banned.
Reason: Questionable guro content on /yan/,
(no second line present)

So wait.
I was banned for a week for posting pictures of Akyuu squashing yukkuris because that's guro?
Seriously?
They don't even have internal organs.

And besides, drawn guro is allowed on /bananas/ (see rules), so it makes sense that it would be allowed on /yan/.

>> No.1545   [Delete]   [Edit]

Gore isn't allowed on any board Amy. :/

Desu Imageboards
2. /bananas/ - Kirakishou imageboard and related topics. No off-topic posts. You may actually post (drawn) guro here.

This is what I was thinking of. Also, many sites don't consider yukkuris to count.

It's really no trouble for me, I just thought it was strange.

>> No.1548   [Delete]   [Edit]

The ban is pertaining to questionable content on /yan/, i.e. guro. As a mod, I can't let people off just because one is a valuable contributor of Desuchan, while other users take the hit for same questionable content. I have to be fair to all.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but until the community resolves this issue, I have to enforce it with equality.
