If you ran 4chan...

What would you change?

I would require every imageboard thread to have something in the subject field, and every current thread's title would be listed at the top of the board.

Wow, that shit would make absolutely no difference at sll.

Over time it could.  People would be less quick to start new threads, there wouldn't be as many threads on the same topic, and you wouldn't have to search through 15 pages to find a thread.

It wouldn't cure your autism though.

>>4
What are you, a /lounge/ insult comic?

ehhhhhhhhhhh

>>1
People would just fill it with gibberish.

>>7
It's sad that he didn't realize that.

>>7,8
The system works on 2ch for the most part, surely it can work on 4chan too

>>9
It also works on every other forum ever. I think 420chan requires subjects, too. The only thing I see happening is some retards might use "won't let me post without a subject" as the subject to retarded threads.

It's not a bad idea, in the sense that it would probably slow down the worse offenders. But they would end up writing gibberish to bypass it. CAPTCHA has been instituted, and I haven't seen a noticeable decline in the amount of posting (i.e. legitimate, non-automatic non-spam posts), so I doubt a mandatory subject entry would be of much help.

I would make it so any post that is less than fifteen words long equals a permaban.

The point of an imageboard is to share images, not post huge walls of text all the time. It depends on the context of the post in question to determine is quality, not the quantity of the words it contains.

>>13
^* its

Merge all of the boards into one megaboard

>>15
Awful idea, that would just make it into one megalopolis of /b/, and clog up the system to a much more unreliable state than it is today.

PHP, MySQL and Web server software can only go so far.

I would delete all the image boards so that world4ch gets more visitors. /lounge/ will be renamed to /b/

>>17
Good thing you don't run this place.

>>13
So you can't write an explanation and/or something funny/entertaining to go with the picture? 15 words is not much to ask.

I bet you're one of those ">mfw" and "my waifu" queers aren't you? I bet you didn't even make it to college....

I would split /b/ into several sub-boards as well as making the subject field necessary, and a title display like OP.

I would also concentrate on trying to get as many moderators as possible, but allow stuff to run itself a bit.

/a/ could be split up.  Maybe Anime/Random and a current season/ongoing manga discussion board.

I would ban anyone that calls quoting green text and anyone that uses quoting for anything other than quoting. The imageboards would instantly become a lot better.

Sometimes, a picture all by itself is all that is necessary. Imageboards' main function is sharing images, not as a means of telling a story. Sure, by extension, you can add a witty comment, or by accident, propagate a story (which is how Nurse-Kun came about), but nobody initially flocks to the imageboards to read a thread that looks like it was written by Thomas Carlyle (no, not even on the VIPPER boards).
And, yes, 15 words is much to ask, being that quality posting is not determined by an arbitrary length, but context.

I like how people come up with capricious notions about you from their imagination simply because you disagree with them.

>>22
Anime/Random doesn't sound too bad, that is how /b/ started initially after all.
