Apparently Aux thinks there's something suspicious about Endchan, but for now let's just be happy that we've got a bunker!

>>282
Something does seem...odd about this place that's for sure. I still think we need to hold /monster/ in the top 25.

>>286
One hand I think /pol/ is pretty cancerous, but them not being allowed to raid seems pretty suspect. Also apparently Drybones is involved, and he does tend to bring drama with him wherever he goes. There's a less-than-zero chance of him quitting and the guys running this place losing the resources he's given them. Just doesn't seem stable, you know?

>>288
I wanna know a bit more about the admins and their plans for this site. I hope it's people we can trust to not fuck up, but I'm not putting my money on it just yet.

It said connection failed so I tried to post it again and got a double post. Oh well, enjoy double imp bj.

>>292
That imp's really cute, it's all good.

I'm really hoping the mods don't go full hotpocket and maybe the no-raid rule was just them misinterpreting US law or not wanting to get too much heat on them so early. At the very least, I'm hoping that maybe this shows that LynxChan actually is ready to roll and convinces Hotwheels to switch to that. I really do like what Endchan's doing, and I'm optimistic for the shit they've promised, like NNTPchan integration. Let's just hope the admins don't fail us.

>>295
Update: I was right, apparently the "no doxing" rule was just a misinterpretation of US law, /pol/ has no rule against that. Maybe that was just some dank FUD.

>>282
Aux a lil shit
I like him tho
I like this chan
Lets all be happy

>>330
remember, Ammit-chan blesses us no matter where we go. Ride shiny and chromed heros.

In case any of you are interested or leery of this place, the guy running this joint is doing a Q&A over here >>>/operate/302

Man I hope cross-board links work like they did back on 8chan.

>>366
It is good to see some concerns answered, although I still need to see what firetires will do. Unless Next bombs so hard that 8chan goes down for good, I suspect that any exodus will split the community, as some will prefer to leave while others will take their chances and stay. Also we are not sure if the majority of that split would come here, and while /monster/ is best board, it isn't the only one I follow. So while we have a comfy bunker here, I'm not ready to call it home yet.

Nothing ill against the endchan admins, just kind of the way things are.

>>368
I'm just hoping that Josh chimps out again and Next bombs so Hotwheels will just use this software.

>>370
Same. Josh is a niggerjew of the highest degree, but the ball is in the cripplekikes court right now. If fred kicks josh to the curb and uses better software to revitalize 8chan, there will be no need for an exodus, on the other hand, if he goes through with Next, I suspect that it will be shitty, but not shitty enough to make everyone want to bail.

>>371
I think the one thing stopping the cripplekike from just using LynxChan is the sunk-cost fallacy. He already wasted $12k and quite a few anons' respect for him on Josh, quitting now would probably make him feel like a moron, even though it's probably the smartest thing he could do right now.

>>372
Ah yes, buyers remorse. I've seen that more than once during my decades as a gamer. But this is where maturity will come into play. If fred is a mature person, he will look past such a feeling and do what is right for his community and his site. If if is not mature about this, then we will see quite a bit of damage done before things get better.

>>371
>>372
I wanna know how freedomcripple became cripplekike in such short time. Back when they were great, he'd visit /v/ and /pol/ and post with us. Now he just spends all his time on irc and doesn't seem to care about the site.
The cult of personality was a mistake, one that we should not make again, but he at least seemed like a cool guy when we first saw him. What happened?

>>377
>Now he just spends all his time on irc and doesn't seem to care about the site.
>irc

there is the problem

>>377
He lost touch with his users, hangs out on IRC, doesn't really keep us updated on what's happening with the site outside of his transparency reports, and employing Josh even though it's become quite clear that he's incompetent and probably only got the job because they knew each other back on Wizardchan.

>>378
Is there anything particularly evil about irc? I'm on the steam chat (albeit I only joined because of the possibility of 8chan and by extension /monster/ would crash with no survivors and we'd have to make a plan in case all goes to hell) and it's not like any of us have stopped caring about the board. It gets kinda autistic sometimes but we really just wanna stick together and shitpost/share neat things.
Fuck all this e-drama, I just want some place to talk about and enjoy vidya, monstergirls, chink comics, and dank memes with anons. Is that too much to ask?
>>380
They might be friends, but I find it hard to believe Freddie forgot that Josh is an attention whoring pedo lolcow. You don't get to bring friends to personal projects, especially your weird one, without jeopardizing either the friendship or the project.
Now for $12k we've got 2 broken sites and a lifetime's supply of e-drama. Hotwheels could've just grabbed some fucks off of /tech/ to do it way better and there wouldn't even be any charge for them. Hell, you could've gotten random anons, taught them web development and make them make the site in less than 18 months and we'd probably get something functional.
At this point, Hotwheels is either best off firing Josh so he can take his $12k to buy CP that he'll get caught and v& for and using lynxchan (i.e. swallowing his pride) or just shutting it down and us moving here permanently. The first has the problem of still having to deal with problems in 8chan (specifically it's larger communities) and the latter has the issue of fragmenting an already relatively small community. Thankfully, it seems /monster/, /bane/, /his/, and /v/ (to Mark's chargrin) are set on here as a backup.
>lost touch with his users
But why? Why did it happen?

>>387
IRCs just get very clique-ish. I'm on the steam chat as well, and I know we suffer from that a bit as well. It becomes a problem when that is your only interaction with the community, you lose sight of the big picture.

One the the nice things about aux the mexi-kun is that he either makes calls on a whim or in public, which makes him a little less susceptible to such faggotry. Firetires hasn't really publicly interacted with the community in months, thus why he is out of touch.

>>387
>Is there anything particularly evil about irc?

Not inherently, but it seems like most of the discussion of the site's future and updates seem to be posted over there, instead of somewhere the average anon can find. That, and with the hero worship around him it's kind of set a hugbox up for him. Basically what >>389 said.

>>389
Its true.

hotwheels is really out of touch with how people act. He doesn't seem to be familiar with the changes in boards or the memes. I just wish he'd go back to shitposting with the rest of us instead of pretending he's better than the unwashed plebs.

I don't get this shit. I don't want to use infinity next, it looks awful and it really doesn't improve 8chan other than performance. It culls features and strengthens the big boards rule/small boards get the scraps mentality that made 8chan go to shit. I can't tell the cripple how to run his site but if I was him i'd be listening to my people especially since everyone's so fucking confused and annoyed.

>>426
Next is an absolute travesty, aside from looking like trash, we lost a ton of features. That doesn't sound like an upgrade to me.

Now I know Josh is a fucking autist, so I'm not going to question why he thinks this is a good idea, but I'm really wondering why firetires is so on board with it. All his other faults aside, of which there are many, he was a coder first and foremost. Coders know you don't take away features unless there is a very good reason, especially if said features were working just fine.

>>427
>All his other faults aside, of which there are many, he was a coder first and foremost. Coders know you don't take away features unless there is a very good reason, especially if said features were working just fine.

Actually, he's not a coder. He codes in PHP :^)

>>427
Josh said that new features and custom css was coming but his first priority is getting it up and running. Unfortunately, he can't seem to manage that.

>>431
Josh says a lot of things. Josh says he knows what he is doing as well.

>>431
Josh's priority seems to be defending himself from any criticism. I made some jab at him on the /monster/ on the beta and he popped in to call me a heretic. I sure hope that means he's gotten some actual work done!

>>433
Could you link to the exact post you/him made? I didn't see where it was.

>>440
Here you are.

http://beta.8ch.net/monster/thread/105337#reply-123890

Well'p, it's happening, boards on 8chan are starting to redirect to the beta. Pour one out for our friends at /2hu/ and /4chon/

Well'p, Josh finally admitted that maybe Next isn't working out. Still hope for Hotwheels just using this software.

>>476
just saw that, what a godamned mess.

>>484
Objectively the best $12k Hotwheels and any anon dumb enough to donate ever spent.

>>484
So we staying here man?

I'm pretty fucking comfy with this place now.

>>449
/cuckquean/'s also switched over and they don't seem to be flying too good.

hi

>>486
Unfortunately, Teridax seems to be involved in some capacity. Unless the owners explain this and he turns out to barely have any importance, I'm not going to be staying for too long.

>>598
There is also this guy.

>>701
At least he was stripped of his modhood, but still kind of weird that he seems to be friends with a guy here. Does not bode well.

back to work on justicechan, I guess

>>598
Yeah i saw that, mostly wary about his presence.
>>598
jesus christ.

smug bump
