I am totally fucking sick of the faggot pissing contest shit slinging on this board. Why are people incapable of just not going to a thread of a car they don't like and start arguing. Why do people keep complaining about every fucking brand? Why are they called 'enthusiasts' when most of the time they're hating on cars? What the fuck do you niggers LIKE about cars???

That's the whole point of the site. Free speech, just no child abuse shit. You could go anywhere else for a curated, safe, echo-chamber experience where any dissenting opinion is hidden. Like reddit, for example.

Exactly, no guardrails on opinions about cars. Post it up and find out what anonymous shitposters really think. That how you know a car is truly fantastic. It rises to the top, like my kei truck.

Fucking hilarious, trying to hide behind this meme. Even 4chins has rules and if you want to shit up a board with inane shitposts and le ebin trolles /b/ exists specifically for that. Instead every board is now /b/ lite because tourists like you think this is how the entire site is supposed to be because they don't know any better. Newfags larping as oldfags telling other newfags how it's supposed to be by being retards. What a clown show. And then you have the gall to tell me to go back.

Yo, /o/ has been my homepage on all of my machines since 2008. /o/ has always been off-topic for adults as long as we keep it mildly car-related.
I'm a mechanical engineer, but I guarantee you'd shit on me if I went on a diatribe about metallurgy or math calling me a "tryhard" - that's your free speech. It's part of the game, but don't make fun of the game when we're the only show in town.

If it was offtopic garbage derailing the thread? Absolutely. If it was actually pertaining to the topic at hand? No, why would I do that?
>as long as we keep it mildly car-related
Take a look at the threads nowadays. Assuming one even starts out about cars inevitably some shitposting e-whore like the wheelgap spic will derail it into 200+ posts of shit flinging. Now if people ignored it it would go away but anons don't have that amount of self restraint so there's always at least one who will reply to the faggot. I've been saying this for some time and I'll keep saying it - if a janny did a hard crackdown on shitposters it would really clean this board up in no time. Same thing should also happen to other boards sans the designated containment cesspools. Call me reddit or whatever, I don't give a shit, there's a finite amount of tolerance people have for nonstop shitposting designed to only derail a thread. If it was at least funny then it'd be a different story.
>>

Most posters here just want to anonymously rag on you about whatever you like because it costs them nothing to do so, but they get the benefit of engagement. Maybe in the past this used to be a place to get some actually good and honest information about cars, but its almost entirely vapid shitposting now.
There are some anons here genuinely passionate about cars that can appreciate things beyond their specific and narrow tastes, but they are not common. It feels like bumping into an actual person in a crowd of npcs.

It was once. It goes for all of 4chan that people are assholes for the sake of being assholes because newfags come thinking "zomg 4chan i hope i don't get dox'd" like it was ever a dangerous place. So to fit in these new 14 year olds would just be aggressive as possible to fit in and now it's just the norm.

Literally just autism if Anon 1 likes car A Anon 2 will get fucking pissed because "reeee how can anyone like car A if car B is clearly better!" other examples would be dick measuring contests in speed but then someone with a decorative car or a classic minds their own business in their own thread and the speed fanatics can't comprehend someone enjoying a car for anything that isn't speed it just doesn't compute to them so again they get all pissy until a biker comes in to rightfully put them in their place. We can see this in car shapes too. "reee how can anyone like cars that are round/wedge/boxy/whatever reee!" If you expose this behavior they'll complain being "forced" to "respect" cars because the autist can't comprehend just being indifferent to things instead of actively seething over basically nothing important. They can claim to be "trolling" all they want but I've had the displeasure of interacting with autists in real life and no they genuinely get frustrated with people who enjoy different things or the same thing for different reasons. They're closer to boomers in mindset than they think because the truth is those boomer enthusiasts were also autistic.

it's a bit of both imo. 4chan has been around long enough to slowly filter out lots of civilized discussion in favour of screeching retards that get enough engagement so they don't leave
we've evolved from blue boards being semi-focused with some off topic shit, with /b/tards being in their containment board to most boards becoming lite-/b/ with generals being more niche and splintered versions of the original board

This is why I keep saying this retarded site needs the mods to actually step in and moderate it. However when you so much as mention this newfags and other undesirables immediately screech you want to encroach on their "freedom of speech" and their freedom of speech revolves only around derailing, flooding and spamming every single thread they see on a board. Not to mention the absurd amount of porn and soft porn being spammed on almost every board under the guise of a thread enough to spawn the "lust provoking image, time wasting question" meme. I even wanted to apply to be a janny myself but when I read further into it you have no power to actually do anything meaningful so it's pointless anway. God I hate the subhumans who infest and shit up this site so much.

I agree moderation could increase but i could also see that fucking up with jannies being too opinionated and no guide definition on what a worthy thread is. Making it shitter than it is.

I want to be incredibly clear with you guys. I see this sentiment on nearly every semi-active board on this site now. 4chan has gone to immeasurable levels of meaningless rage now and every user who actually gives a damn agrees. It's as if /pol/ and /b/ are seeping out into every facet of this place. It's dare I say, unusable for meaningful discussion.
Discord and Twitter have siphoned away all active users who cared because of /b/ and /pol/tards getting more bold. Ironically, them leaving made it even easier for the retards to take over.
After a point it became a self-sustaining cycle that will only end when every board becomes /pol/ with porn and maybe a slight hint of the actual board topic.
What sucks is that when considering those alternatives to 4chan, Twitter is just a shit site to use, and any other users who went to discord went to many different servers for the same topic. So the entirety of those communities in which they used to post here are now incredibly divided amongst many different servers or sites, along with heavy content restrictions. The consequence of staying here though is posting into an echo chamber of rage and nothingness.
It's just a shitty fucking situation. 4chan is old and rotting away. As much of a hellhole this place was at least you could state your actual opinion. Sadly that virtue is now what's killing it.

>/b/ and /pol/tards
Yes, yes, /b/ has always been shit but I remember /b/ not being this much of a cesspool as it is now. Around 2012 or 2013 you could still find greentext threads with good OC, especially the tard stories threads. In general 4chan used to be were OC was made, now it's a dumping ground of OC made elsewhere. I know this will sound very /pol/ but I blame ESLs, especially the brown kind, the most.
I'm an ESL myself but I've learned the language enough to understand nuance and irony. nuchanners are just so degenerated all they can do is regurgitate content from elsewhere which is also what's killing this site because there's no driving force to keep the site alive if there's no good content being made.
The other thing is retards don't lurk before joining in because they don't care. They all think 24/7 shitflinging is how it's supposed to be because other newfags taught them. They don't know any better either. Chan culture doesn't exist anymore and you can basically boil every issue down to this. There's no one to teach newfags about chan culture because most people who cared either fucked off like you said or just don't care because they know it's pointless.
The sheer volume of jeets who barely understand the language flooded the site and now you have everyone at each other's throats because they don't understand when someone is just jesting. They always treat everything as a personal slight against them so it's a self perpetuating cycle of vitrol. You'd have to rid the site of them first to even have a sliver of hope at recovering and we all know it's nigh impossible to do at this point.
Anyway thanks for subscribing to my blog. I will most likely post something similar in the near future when another thread like this pops up. Whether we like it or not the site is dead, it just doesn't know it yet.
I wish it weren't so because despite this being a cesspool of retardation and degeneracy I still had many fun times over the years here.

I've been here since 2003, before /o/ even existed. I was one of the people shilling Volvos back in the day among other things.
It was always shit, people always fought over stupid shit, but the one thing that has changed is how thirdies and ESLs lack an understanding of sarcasm or irony.
Even when I'm fighting with people I try to make a concerted effort to be funny. If they don't get it then I'll drop the facade but nowadays you get these dumb asses who go ">you were just pretending to be retarded" like it's some sort of grand revelation. Yes, newfag, that is precisely what I was doing and you fell for it. Take your licks and don't reply next time. The thirdies, (that means you Aussies too) dont get this subtlety and openly seethe about having been mislead, mistakenly presuming that there is some battle for veracity, like anyone has a reputation here to uphold, like reddit or old-school forums. The fact is there isn't and there is basically no purpose for seething at anybody if they're actually retarded or not. You gain nothing and they are the ones who are entertained by the thrashing.
Mostly what happened is the oldfags grew up and the old jokes got overplayed. We memed Volvos so hard they exploded in popularity irl and prices for 240s and 740s went up. Funny people like Jackal and LPG came and went.
Now you try the same kind of ironic humor and these new kids just don't GET it. Everything is serious business to them. I can't even shitpost about my V6 Challenger without seething europoors and underage thirdies literally pissing and shitting theirselves over it like it fucked their mom and stole their tv. There is an entire discord full of trannies dedicated to seething at me specifically, and it's not irony they're actually fucking mad and think doing gay shit like posting my name or where I live will stop me from making Mopar threads or telling people to buy chally wallys. No dice. I'm here forever.

>tard stories threads.
It really was a surprisingly fun thing to do on /b/. It was at that perfect storm, too, since alot of people who were of age posting on /b/ around that time grew up back when it was in vogue to integrate the tards into normal schools and normal classes. Do they still do that? I think it might've fallen out of vogue. I remember in middle school there was a tard department but by the time I was done HS there was nary a tard to be found.
Looking back, it's like a time capsule of a very specific trend in education that touched alot of people.

>Chan culture doesn't exist anymore
Largely due to mods and jannies doing their best to kill chan culture. For a good clip between 2014 and 2020 anything that was board culture was banned for being off-topic.
>>
>>28859302
the only people ive ever seen banned for "board culture" were annoying unfunny faggots trying to force memes or being otherwise extremely obnoxious
never seen a post that was actually humorous or inventive catch a ban, just morons reposting an already unfunny shitpost without context.

Poe's law applies to anyone. I've spoken to friggin Germans who understand sarcasm better than most Americans on here.
I have noticed zoomers on the web have this underlying passive aggressiveness in every conversation and they need to convey that you're not approved while also showing as little effort in the response as possible (Like that "cringe" and "bruh" faggotry) and they totally throw the conversation into bickering no matter what you say to keep it on track.

Most people don't actually have a passion for cars, they just view the car they drive as some sort of extension of a personality trait (or lack thereof) they have. As such, if you don't suck off whatever car or car brand they've chosen, it's viewed as an insult to them specifically. It's kinda part of a bigger problem with social media, you can find the same thing for clothes, music, cartoons, etc. People that think this way are incapable of accepting dissent, so they just throw fits and piss on the things actually passionate people enjoy. Unfortunately, minus a handful of generals, there's no real point in posting engaging threads because they get filled with morons. I'm guessing most guys just left for car model specific forums to escape these kinds of people.

Wait wait wait what if WHAT IF instead of moderation changes, they just made it a requirement to have an account to post on 4chan? You dont have to go mental and fag it up with karma like reddit. You just have a handle and post history with that username for all to see.
That would be all you need to filter the shit out. People could see exactly who a screaming retard is and mentally tag their name and people would suddenly have an actual reputation to uphold.

>>28859492
>a requirement to have an account to post on 4chan

Then you might as well go to reddit because you lose the anonymity and you can't take that away because what's the point of an anonymous image board then? I know this generates the most issues but making accounts mandatory isn't really a solution and it's not like you can't just make a bunch of throwaway accounts to shitpost anyway. Tripfags are already bad enough with their shit takes they think everyone should treat as gospel now imagine every retard being like that.
>>28859493
>just word filter
I've been doing this for a long time but it's not perfect and anons who don't know about it still engage with those subhumans. Also you'd have to basically filter every word because some don't use easily identifiable phrases or words that stand out.
>>
>>28856922
All those other posts have a point and all, but I've seen it put succinctly on /v/ of all places. Nobody argues with your post anymore, they argue with what they imagine the anon making the post to be. Doesn't matter what you say. You're Xfag or Yschizo who clearly has an agenda/is seething/is a zoomer/is an unc/is a newfag/is an oldfag who has to touch grass/is a shill/is brown/is a virgin/is a normalfag/is a failed normie, et cetera. It's all very bizzare. What happened to just smarmily correcting typos or calling each other faggots? Now it has to include the word -schizo or -troon alongside what personality trait an anon's imagined for his enemy because... reasons.
But then again, it could just be someone boredly stirring up shit on his second monitor who's just gotten this engagement formula down to reflex. Maybe those "arguments" you see that go on for 200+ posts are just two guys who're getting their kicks acting as retarded as possible, imagining the other guy to be seething, their expressions nonplussed the entire time. An avalanche of irony, I suppose.

>>28859504
Reddit is over moderated trash full of fags who are scared of the word that best describes them. If everyone on 4chan suddenly went by a username, you could still say kikenigger and rant about trannies and nobody would care. Having to make an email and new account for throwaways is still enough of a hurdle to deter screeching mong behaviour. I don't think it would ruin 4chan.

yeah you're on to something
here you get tards complaining that your post is tl;dr when it's like 2 sentences long which is really funny because then they just look extra retarded.
the thing I always remember is that even if you're arguing with one or two people there are like 100 people who are going to read your post so even if some fag is dismissive, your post is still posted and there is nothing they can do about it except for spam the thread or slide other threads so it gets buried, but they can't do that for very long.
Also yes there is a discord shitpost cabal, they hate me specifically but also /ovg/ and /dbt/ and will try to slide those threads if they are on the front page by bumping with exceptionally off topic or nonsensical shitposts in other threads. one of their people is the chameleon tranny in /dbt/ who saves other people's images and pretends to be them in arguments. I even had one who spent like a year saving pics of my car and making obvious piss take posts with it. He claimed once in a thread to me that he once bullied a mustang owner to actual suicide and wished the same for me. Heh. What a maroon.

making accounts and having names is antithesis to what 4chan is.
Anonymity is not about hiding your identity from people or the government, it's about being able to have an argument or discussion without the pretensions of a traditional forum where people compare post counts and join dates to determine the veracity of the information someone posted.
On 4chan, or any anonymous BBS, only the truth is relevant. Only the truth will win an argument. You can post bullshit but you will get called out on it every single time because you and the people you are conversing with are equals. This is why 4chan is still around, it is basically a digital affirmation of the rights granted to the People in the US Constitution.
Adding usernames or IDs or whatever means that people are no longer equal, you will be judged based on how long your ID has been posting rather than if the information you posted was true or not. This is literally communism.

The reason people choose to come to 4chan is because they can say whatever they want without fear of people tying it to their reputation. Sometimes you can say things you would have to filter otherwise, sometimes you come here to act like a retarded teenager and bantz and fight.
If you think there should be users or IDs, or more than the bare-minimum of moderation, then why not go to any other website instead of trying to make us into clones of them?

yes absolutely, this too

having a post history is beneficial for knowledgeable discussions, as it's easy to filter out trolls and those with retard takes. however, as previously mentioned, usernames/accounts are antithetical to 4chan as a platform, so it's a moot point. IQ tests don't filter out marginally intelligent trolls either, but it's a decent start as it'll filter out quite a few ESLs and thirdies

Intelligent and funny trolling is fine, welcome even. Regurgitating the same unfunny shit over and over again isn't either of these things. Just look at /v/ how it's india central now with 90% of threads being some sort of thinly veiled coomer, ragebait or any other kind of shitpost thread at any given time during the day. Do you honestly think this is fine? Are you fine with chan culture basically being extinct? I'm not because despite newfags really trying to gaslight other newfags into thinking this place always has been just everyone spitting vitriol at everyone and everything all the time I remember it wasn't.

I've been here (/o/, never went to /b/) almost every day since fall '08. Yeah, it was different, but there were always trolls, strawman roleplay bait threads, sockpuppetry, and people acting like idiots. Remember "dead?"
One thing I've found is that complaining about them makes more of them exist because it signals that you notice it. Just, you know, don't feed the trolls. Set a good example.
Part of the fun of this website is that people will act like idiots and it's sometimes very entertaining.

That is some serious devotion to larp as someone else on 4chan because they got cross from an online comment lel. People hate the required login idea but it would eradicate this mong behaviour.
Speaking of-
>>28860043
Thats a good point like i understand the mutually assured faggot etiquette of 4chan and yeah i could see the new thing mixing with current 4chan behaviour and every argument devolving into people combing eachothers postings. Fuck.

it wasn't just a comment either it was because i called my car a "chally" which is in fact a very common abbreviation among mopar enthusiasts, but apparently it sounded like baby speak to this guy and he absolutely lost his mind over it which is literally where "chally wally" came from.

imagine being so fucking butthurt you turn something you don't even like into a meme lmao
accounts would not stop this behavior it would just make it more annoying because what if the chameleon establishes identity first or cracks your password? it's much harder to pretend to be someone you're not if nobody has an identity to begin with.
also just fyi sage goes in the options field

I understand where you're coming from and I agree but zoombies and whatever comes afterwards just can't help themselves because they don't see any good examples because it's drowned in a sea of other newfags. I would very much want to believe the average poster is intelligent enough to have some self restraint but who are we kidding here.
>Part of the fun of this website is that people will act like idiots and it's sometimes very entertaining.
Absolutely but notice how nobody is retarded on purpose anymore to make fun of THEMSELVES for laughs because that would heavily damage their ego or social standing on an ANONYMOUS image board. Social media has been a cancer to everything on the internet and it even shows here of all places. Why else would anyone want to protect their standing on an anonymous image board, especially one without IDs?
I would welcome the days of anons just playing up being retarded to make a screencap worthy thread for others to read through couple of years later but it just isn't happening because chan culture is dead and everyone seems to be in a social rat race for the top because they're twitter or reddit refugees.

You really shouldn't be surprised that automotive enthusiasm is the bottom rung as far as hobbies go. The majority of "car guys" really don't know shit about a car, let alone their own car. They're surface-level larpers pretending to be enthusiasts and it really shows regardless of where you go.

It's no different in any other hobby. Go check out /g/ sometime, it's full of people who think they're serious computer wizards for putting parts together on a configurator website or knowing who Terry Davis is. I guess everyone starts somewhere.

They really don't get any better when they join or partake. They stay about the same.
One of the most retarded things I've been told recently was from our Ice-T/neanderthal looking ass detailer at our shop talking about his E36 having a V6 and pulling up AI search results as proof. Dude brags about being "the head of detailing" yet the service writer had to show him how to scrape stickers off of glass. And also tries to wipe bird shit off a car with a dry towel. Or the dude I worked with back in TX seeing an Ecoboost Mustang for the first time and saying "it's sacrilege to put a 4 banger in a Mustang" like Ford hasn't done that since the 70s.
There's so many, many examples of sub-90 IQ retards who shouldn't be around cars, let alone touching them. They'll get pissed off when they break 10 year old plastic clips instead of just replacing them with new ones. Or getting pissed off that they can't reach the bulbs behind the headlights instead of putting the front on jackstands and removing the bumper. Or getting pissed at VW/Audi door handles for not being the same as a Malibu door handle.

If its actually an interesting discussion/question, where people would actually want to give their two cents and not just shitpost, then threads don't tend to get that badly derailed
If its something mundane like buyers advice over a 1.6 sportage, keep it in the SQDDTOT.
Keep to that rule of thumb and you can actually get something out of this shithole.

Majority of zoomers are hispanic muttoids with macho culture embedded in their DNA. The few remaining whites have observed that blacks and hispanics are the only approved identity and follow suit.

Yeah, I still do that 20 years later, the diff-eq? not so much. I can hang with basic Calc 1 and 2 and can visualize differentials and integrals on graphs, at least I vaguely know what to look up if I need to re-learn anything more - but there's always wolfram alpha.
