/jp/ mansion

/jp/ is one of the top 5 English-language imageboards in the known universe. This is the place to discuss /jp/ and /jp/-related topics on 5ch.

where's my idol board

[3 Anonymous 2019/01/28(Mon) 21:31:59.29]

Why is this board called /img8/ if I can't post pictures?!

There are probably tons of idol boards here but they're in moonspeak.

It's for "imageboard discussion". I guess this is the closest to a "net culture" board.

Do you think 4chan will still be there and will still function like it functions today in 2023?

I like 2ch cause of how fucking far back everything is kept, all the japanese shitposting practice you want

Yeah but the website is gonna require you to pay per post, and all the pictures in every board
are going to be a new version of pepe/wojak, and everyone is gonna scream "weebshit" at
anything that even slightly resembles japanese cartoon drawings.

Sometimes I check /v/ to see what the latest outrage is. (The last time it was about how Reimu should or shouldn't be in Smash Bros. I was surprised.)
Most of the screaming about "weebshit" used to be more obviously ironic. Now a growing proportion falls under Poe's law.
This is either an advancement in trolling or a demographic change. Probably both.

It would be perversely fascinating to see a /jp/ that hates "weebshit".

Sorry for the random line breaks in the post above.
When I tried to post it without them I received an error message that said a line was too long.
The Japanese style of one sentence per line would probably look better.

I hope so. That way, when us the real otakus make
a successful, active IB, we can tell everyone to
go back to 4chan. If 4chan dies, the cancer will
spread.

Yes, one visit to /qa/ makes you realize how necessary is containment.
For now 4chan serves this purpose.
However, containment sometimes fails.
Instead of containing the disease it becomes the place cultivating it.
If a real otaku IB appears, 4chan may be the ``ironic weeb's'' stepping stone to it.

Maybe to make a better board what you need is to get rid of (You)s.
Too many posters treat the number of (You)s like their post's score.
It would also be aligned with otaku culture since 2chan does not have post links.

I'm not sure that's true. If 4chan dies, a lot of the userbase may just move over to other sites for shitposting.
It would be easier for them to jump over to a site with usernames than to colonize a board designed to keep them out.
Especially if it's text only. Everyone wants to share meme images, a text BBS would frustrate that kind of usage.
