can anyone explain what is this bootleg 4chan and what is the point of it
>>402
Imagine making a knock off 4chan, and advertising it on 4chan
>op doesnt understand the purpose of altchans
ok
>Iro is an unlisted imageboard. Users can create threads and reply with images, WEBMs, or text without needing to log in or specify a name.
>However, there is no public listing of boards (hence "unlisted"). The only way for someone to find your board is through URLs, cross-posted or merged threads, or cross-board replies. There is also no moderator role given to the creator of a board and no proper owner.
>Therefore, you should be careful about where you post URLs to boards you care about, as you may end up inviting in unruly guests. Cross-board replies will also give the source thread a link to the board where the reply was posted, so be cautious about that as well.

Lol, I know right? I mean I’d probably do it to, but if I were to ever make a knock off 4chan it would be as a joke, like Jannie free 4chan were your only allowed to post using soyjaks or you get banned you don’t get dubs on each post some retarded shit like that
>try’s to defend site with ironic greentext
>greentext doesn’t work on this site
LMAO get fucked!
>>466
Cool, I’m going to spam this board on /pol/ and /b/ now, so much for your “unlisted imagineboard” not that that matters cuz there’s ads for it on there anyway

Interesting...
>>466
So? It’s not like your allowed to post anything illegal so what’s the fucking point of having it unlisted? It’s basically a slower less convenient to navigate 4chan
>>494>>443
Seekrit club, now in bootleg chan form!
Everyone does.
>>466
That sounds like a really easy way to host illegal content...
>>466
Linking site-wide from a 4chan ad is not exactly helpful in regard to "inviting in unruly guests".

Like 4chan without all the bad things.
Också, hej från SverigeTråden!

Unlisted imageboard is most autistic and worst idea.
What the point if 8ch exists?
Its not like you can find it other than via yandex
>>402
Also what the fuck does the Merge/Leech button do?
Why is there no FAQ?
This unironically has the potential to be pretty comfy.

>If you additionally check the "Merge/Leech" box, the new thread will continuously include all posts from up to 5 threads referenced in the OP.

>bootleg 4chan
technically isnt 4chan a "bootleg" 2chan
>>1163
Not really since both sites are owned by the same person now
So do links between boards automatically die after a while or are they just being moderated?
>>1212
it's limited to the most recent 10 per board to stop it from degenerating into a global board list
if it breaks on one side it breaks on the other as well
have a couple ideas i may try to make the changes less abrupt
>>402
Bootleg 4chans, as you put it, pop up with reasonable regularity. There was 7chan, 420chan, 8chan, masterchan, and prolly a bunch of others, those are just the ones i have used over the years. Dunno how many still exist..,i know 420chan is still there. But people like them because they tend to generate more interesting discussion amongst a smaller userbase, unlike 4chan which is mainly wojack, frog and posters saying "based". Or, when i used masterchan, it became a haven for cp. Some people like it, others find it boring or tedious.

as soon as an altchan gets around 100-200 regulars they become fun. Enough to hit f5 every 10 minutes but far from too much like 4cancer. If it then develops its own culture instead of imitating 4cancer, then you struck gold.
Ah, how I miss KC...(Kohl is trash).
this board honestly feels like old 4chan
like back in 2005
It's like 4chan but with a brainlet filter to keep newfags and casuals isolated from the userbase. Pretty good idea, considering what happened to 4chan after the big immigration waves it experienced with the years, getting worse and worse after each one.

>he doesn’t get it
lol have fun spamming like a retard
>>2622
That's the purpose of altchans, they either become 2006 4chan or they just imitate existing chans in every way and fall into obscurity because there is no reason to leave the larger communities if the small ones just copy them in every way
>>491
greentext is propiretary 4chan code newfag
>>402
4chan without a bunch of retarded gay lord w*jak, p*pe, b*sed, cr*nge posting normalfaggots
