>>9829 >We simply don't have enough active userbase to... You misunderstood, or I wasn't clear enough, but I was talking in general. Other places on the alt chans also seem to not give much of a shit. And I don't like 4chan's /a/ turbo fast board, I want to revisit those threads, see what people discussed, not hop on, have intense discussion and shitposting for like a day or 2 and then the thread goes to the shadow realm. >>9829 >That's irrelevant on this board, unless mere existence of MGE references upset you. Nah, I really like this series too, I even think KC using the broken copyright system to become an anti-NTR dictator is pretty cool, but there's limits to everything. >>9820 >The series in general just kind of fell off, what's with the long wait between chapters for the longest time (probably because of Crabman's depression at the time), the plot or the main harem never really moving the story forward, no season 2 while hype was high. Usually discussion nowadays just boils down to this almost nostalgic feeling over the main cast. I was there when it was dying, and you're right, but I think it recovered a fair bit in the last year or so. English speaking fans didn't seem to come back tho >>9826 >Agreed, and I'm who >>9820 is talking about on MonMusu, where it went so long with no updates that I don't remember where I stopped and can't be arsed to find it. Read some recent chapters, its good.

>>9829 >You want more monmusu fans on this board? Bring them here and/or talk about monmusu in more general threads often enough that anons pick it up. Remember that there's a lot o people lurking, so you have the potential, if you put in the work. I get it you're the BO and you kind of have to shill working for your own board, but this was a little much.

>>9861 Well, what kind of response did you expect? This isn't a wordpress blog where owner is responsible for providing you with content, I already put in tons of hours just being there every day and helping keep up daily activity, I don't have the time to marathon monmusu to add more in-depth lore discussions.

>>9870 I'm talking about the attitude, and this reply is even worse. Just because you're correct doesn't mean the approach is. And for the record, in case you somehow miss this, this isn't about you providing content.

>>9893 Not the BO here, but he's not wrong. You want more people to talk about monmusu. How else do you wanna go about getting that going? Cause other than posting regularly and getting other folk here to do just that, there's not many other options to get a community going. This place is found by word of mouth right now, we don't exactly have banner ads up at other sites pointing here. He's frustrated at having to reiterate that, and you're tone policing. On an imageboard. I get your issue, but compared to other MG communities, he's not being abrasive. Some thicker skin won't hurt you. Bear in mind, this is not a unique issue. Having floated around the different MG community hubs for a while, you tend to notice that language barriers and autism leads to a lot of miscommunication.

NTR shit and slutposting is /amg/ material right? why is this post still allowed on the main board? >> 7969

>>9913 Because it wasn't NTR. Some anon just joked about making a counter VN where femdom is switched for maledom. If he talked about making a VN where someone steals her from someone (or the reader) then yeah I'd delete the post. It was also implied that she wasn't in any relationship yet, so that's another reason to believe NTR wasn't the intent. When in doubt I prefer to assume the positive scenario, rather than the worst.

>>9894 >spelling out the obvious again >mentions autism yeah, that checks out >you're tone policing. no shit sherlock. I didn't like the tone, which is why I complained.

weird question to site owner: do you keep activity stats? like, save the daily/weekly posts or visits somewhere? I was wondering how activity looks depending on the day of the week, or time of the month and alike.

>>10189 I make my own charts using python, I measure activity levels in posts per week. If you are interested I can send you the charts if you mail me. I prefer not to publish exact numbers because from my experience with small imageboards, it usually doesn't lead to anything good.

hey, can you chill a bit with deleting posts? I think its second or third time I had some benign stuff deleted, its annoying.

>>10525 What did you lose.

>>10526 NTA, but I think a post in the fox thread got deleted

>>10525 >>10526 >>10531 I deleted a post that was basically >I don't like this, I don't want to see it here Which was made in response to >>10498 It also contained irrelevant reference to IRL women. Being negative and even mean is to be expected on imageboards so the second reply stayed, but I cannot allow backseat modding and attempts at pushing away any kind of activity from the board just because someone doesn't like it. That's even right in the board rules (updated after the experiment with threads): >5. Don't backseat mod. If you don't like something, use the built-in filter function, hide the thread/post or discuss that matter in board meta thread. btw this was the first post I deleted since May 2nd, before anyone thinks I'm going ham with the janny powers.

>>10532 >"I don't like this, I don't want to see it here" >backseat modding Are you serious? At this point any and all negative posts would be "backseat modding" by this standard.

why are there only 4 pages allowed?

>>10593 Not the BO, but it could be a display error that's cropped up. Same thing happened to the write thread a couple months back.

>>10593 >>10594 That's because of thread limit. I've set it somewhat low to keep the database from swelling too fast and generally conserve server resources. For archival purposes web archive can be used, otherwise you only need to post once every 3 months to keep a thread from sliding off the board.

Did posting speed drop off a cliff or is it just my imagination.

>>10770 Not just you, but for me it feels like posting speed became slower in general in a few other places too. I'm definitely not posting much (or anything) because of irl stuff. Maybe its the season, coincidence or smth else

>>10882 indeed seems to be a combination of circumstances, I'm going through hell IRL for the past few weeks and went from posting every day to mainly lurking though I'm slowly returning to normal.

I'm going from interview to interview trying to be not a jobbless loser neet. Though current two jobs that seems to be possible get is either move to another country or 16 hours of office work, because items randomly come in between 6 am and 11pm lmao

>>10948 What country do you live in? Im any case I'd recommend looking into mail delivery. Post Office work gets a bad rap usually (normies can't handle repetition) , but it's perfect for autists. You either sort mail all day or deliver it, if you're lucky you don't need to talk to a single soul all day.

Stupid question. But do hazbin /helluva deems count in as /mg/ content Yes I know fujobait show. But some, SOME (one) is usable

>>11012 I meant one girl is usable

>>11012 >hazbin Should be fine >helluva Isn't this one mainly furry? If majority of girls have beaks, snouts and button noses then no >Yes I know fujobait show. But some, SOME (one) is usable All the meta shit baggage does not matter on this board and I'm even fine with people posting fucking humanized ponies, at worst you won't get any responses. I recommend either wrapping up all the western cartoon stuff (like hazbin, SU, tower girls) into one thread or using the general one to gauge interest, but you are free to do as you wish.

>>11018 You know a general western monstergirl could work. I'm not sure why I didn't think of it.

>>11018 What about non-humanized ponies? Can they be posted anywhere on the site?

>>11022 That's what /amg/ is for

>>11018 >Isn't this one mainly furry? It's mainly about the homosexual relationship between an owl who really likes getting buttfucked and an imp. Loona was just the foot in the door to trick us all into caring. That said it still gets enough content to actually be worth talking about compared to 90% of monster girl stuff, which has mostly devolved into never ever patreon scams.

https://desuchannel.site come funpost and such

>>13063 What the hell is this link.

>>13072 Someone is spamshilling a new altchan. I'm letting it stay up because they linked back to us in their thread and why the fuck not, might as well use the meta thread since last post here was like half a year ago.

>>13063 living dolls are an underrated monstergirl

>>13063 >>13073 >no https >ugly af I thought it was easy making a readable and decent chan, but alas Makes you appreciate the good ones (e.g. capybara looks perfectly clear and clean)

>>13083 fallen out of favor since 2B dropped i guess

>>9668 >>9671 Seems like 8chan.moe is basically acting as the new 8chan now. I have no problem lurking the threads here, but why not make a /MG/ Board in 8chan? This place could still be used as a bunker in the meanwhile.

>>13197 I'm not opposed to the idea of joining a larger chan as I wouldn't have to be paying for the server+domain anymore and also no more opsec worries, but joining 8ch in particular would take away some of the neutrality I like to maintain so much since webring people for some reason REALY, REALLY dislike 8ch and its posters.

>>13203 I don't know either the group on 8chan and I don't know the group that is against it. Wasn't 8chan deleted for pedo stuff.

>>13204 That's my observations based on lurking anon.cafe, prolikewoah or even on >>>/kemono/1609.

>>13203 Not saying board culture doesn't matter, but aren't most altchans dead barring this one and a few others? Shartycucks even take advantage of this, operating raids on smaller chans because of shit security and a lack of growth. Anyway, I do take the fox threads being uniquely pure here to heart, but it would be better overall to have a dead board and not use it, than to need a bunker board and not have it.

>>13211 You gotta understand my situation here. It took massive effort over 2 years to make this board even semi-alive and if you scroll through this thread a few months back, you'll see that something as banal as temporarily merging redundant threads turned into a goddamn revolt with people coming in just to tell me that they never posted but somehow this made them even less likely to post (???) or go shit talk this site across several other places. Or someone trying to convince me that I shouldn't even try to make this board not dead (wtf). I have no idea how uprooting the board like this would end up, especially since I had some contact with webring altchans and this is the first time I'm talking to someone from 8ch. Maybe the board would take off, or maybe the move would turn off so many anons that it would die, so I have to think this through really hard. That said, it's not a hard no and I'd like to take advantage of recent activity upswing to try and expand this place (eg. I started thinking about joining the webring) so I'll take this option for consideration too.

>>13226 > I don't know much about joining the webring, allchans.org and some other sites are used by the sharty. https://wiki.soyjak.st/Raids

>>13203 Webring and 8moe are both direct successors of the original 8chan (the one now rebranded 8kun and solely populated by Qanon schizos and feds). Webring was born from the idea of operating many small boards to counteract the damages a deplatforming could bring like it did on old 8ch. 8moe meanwhile was the pet project of the /v/ (and I think some /tech/) remnants to reunify the old community, which largely didn't work because everyone at that time preferred defense in numbers, the /v/ BO is notoriously hated for making retarded decisions and the site head is a namefag who might or might not work with feds. Most boards of old 8chan are on the webring and it's also pretty comfy, but keep in mind that joining it might put the board at odds with /monster/ sooner or later. Someone already tried to stirr up a board war between us shortly after Capy came into existence.

>>13263 8moe is admittedly much more stable and much less unhinged compared to other sites like the Sharty. Shartyfags and soyteens are the only ones who actually give a shit about raiding, and are a real threat to small boards like this one. Small boards are comfy, but I do worry that many will eventually fizzle out rather than have new members that are relatively likeminded and somewhat rational.

>>13296 I'd personally prefer webring, but I am biased in favor of it. Don't forget that a lot of spam can already be mitigated with captchas idk if they come pre-included with lynxchan or need to be added/created personally. zzz has a decent captcha system and with Antispam settings which should be a vanilla Lynxchan thing.

>>13203 I like things how they are, this site is essentially a pristine haven in a sea of garbage, but if server costs are a concern perhaps you could open up donations. There might be one or two richfags on the board who feel like chipping in to keep something alive they enjoy. I don't know enough about opsec to tell you if you need a bunker board or not.

>>13359 You must have missed the fun couple weeks where we had loads of posters talking about how great gatekeeping was. That shit was weird, I can't recall it very well anymore but it was like people were specifically motivated to come to talk about how great it is when X doesn't have Y fetish. A really weird direction go to when at least half of monster girl games have some weird ass fetish stuff in them.

>>13359 >I like things how they are If I had a guarantee we would have at least the current levels of activity, I'd be be fine with that too. But this site's activity trend is almost a sine wave and few months ago I was seriously considering throwing the towel with my IRL situation going to shit not helping either. And before that we had similar up and down last year and between that lesser cycles I can't be arsed to analyze on charts. It might as well become almost dead again in 2 or 3 months, who knows. Point is, one thing lots of anons seem to forget is that I don't have the luxury of being able to just take a break for some months, then come back and go >oh neat, this place is still around have some fun and then leave again, I have to keep the lights on through the droughts and I need to make sure there is long-term solution for this place rather than pray things will get better eventually, because there's no way to tell when a pit in activity is actually the final one that leads into death spiral. So I'm looking for a way to smooth out the sinusoid by getting more constant visibility, which brought us to the current discussion. >server costs are a concern They aren't, the time/effort I put in is vastly more significant than the server bills, it's just one of the things that add up.

>>13367 Ohh, I see. I do indeed fall into the "oh neat, this place is still around" category, so do whatever you gotta do.
