New test thread, had to nuke the last… lel

Thank you Finalchan.

This isn't really a suggestion or a complaint, I'm just putting some thoughts out into the open. I've been here quite some time and love the fact I call this website, this community my home. I don't feel the need to specify who I am but I'm guessing you all can put two and two together.

Lately, some people seem disheartened with this place. "There's not enough people", "It's just not the same", whatever the reasons may be, people feel that the spark is gone. I'd like to counter that. Because as far as I'm concerned, it's not.

Through this place I've met some of the most important people in my life. I've met people I can confide in, people I can vent to, people I can rely on. People I care about. Through this place, I can truly feel like I'm a part of shaping a community. Through this place, even with my name set to anonymous, I'm somebody.

Thank you Finalchan. Thank you Illu, thank you Torrential, and Streetcar and Shoop and Palestrina. All of you. And thank you the most Anon, because you're what makes us one, the one community. The closest community. The best community. Thank you for allowing me to participate in this, and please, never stop. Never end, because there's somebody here who cares.

This is our final destination, but by no means is this the end.

Later today the great pruning will take place. In an attempt to consolidate and improve the optics of activity, designated boards will be removed from the board list and combined with /r/.

The boards selected for integration are /an/, /v/, and /t/.

If there are any threads you wish to archive from these boards, it is suggested that you do so immediately. The initial notice of this change was 3 months ago. There has been plenty of time to backup your favorites.

Please note that this is not an attempt to limit the board topics from conversations. New anime, video game, and technology posts should be initiated in /r/. As in the past, boards will expand based on topic popularity in /r/.

We now return you to your normal programming.

Now that vichan is officially dead/dying, would you consider switching over to NPFchan? It is to vichan what vichan was to tinyboard itself

Anyone want to do a Finalchan movie night on Halloween? We could do a strawpoll to figure out movies and whatnot.

Us mods and admins have been talking about making some changes to the current board scheme. There is a severe post disparity between the boards. Specifically /an/. We have also had talks about removing /t/, /v/, and /p/, while keeping /wwe/ as it's own board (/wwe/ is a working title, might be different in practice). /p/ might return at a later date, however, it hasn't been changed in months and nobody has really requested a new board idea recently.

As another incidental consequence, /an/ seems to be a hub for spam posting. We have a couple ideas as to why this is; either the bots are searching for common board names, or the bot is picking the first in the boardlist. If the latter is the case, it would unfortunately move the spam to /co/. However, if it's the former, removing /an/ would hopefully reduce spam by a decent amount.

This has been something under internal review for probably a couple months, and nobody has really done anything (lol). I figured we need to actually commit to this idea somewhat, so what do you guys think? Do you guys agree with any of these proposed changes, do you disagree? We won't make changes overnight, because Finalchan works slower than the U.S. government. You have ample time and opportunity to voice your opinions.

Thanks for the spam filters, faggots, they seem to be working.

Greetings from Mewch, finalchan!
I come here to tell you that the cp spammer using our name and the domain ending in .cf is not us. It is simply using our name to share cp.

With love from your fellow comfy sister site.

I'm getting some stuff working. I'm making some of the more statically themed pages (like recent, the frontpage, etc) dynamically themed. Just did it with the frontpage!
