xanax sucks

why can't I legally be given marijuana to treat my anxiety and panic

why do I have to buy it from unreliable, lazy high school dropouts

notice how the recent thread I made when I was high as balls was really upbeat and silly... weed temporarily rids me of my panic and anxiety, xanax doesn't do all that much help

the threads I make when I'm sober often sound paranoid or crazy, but weed calms me down more than benzos or antipsychotics or anything else for that matter

I'm not a stoner fag... I only smoke a few times a month and I only really care about anxiety/panic relief, not the ``hurrdurr guize I'm high xd sooo randum'' faggotry

I do not visit the imageboards so don't tell me to go ``back'' to them
when will you faggots learn that there are textboard-exclusive shitposters?

I don't think there's enough oldbies anymore that hang around world4ch to make it happen. These boards are too flooded with clueless children from the imageboards that have no clue of the history, culture, or how to comport themselves (thus the level of quality pumped out of these boards these days evident). When I promoted the idea nearly three years ago, there might have been a chance to get another four or five good years out of this place (especially /prog/), but this assumes that moot, Mr VacBob, et al. taking such a suggestion seriously.

I suspect most of the old users of world4ch are long gone (Xarn being a confirmed example), they've probably moved on to private mailing lists or even possibly some hidden 2ch-like board that they're not revealing to anybody (I don't blame them). So where does that leave us? Well, to put it succinctly, the shithouse. Perpetually stuck between a rock and a hard place, forced to be part of the main site with its ever-increasing popularity (and thus ever-increasing flood of imageboard users finding their way here), and an old long-gone userbase of who enough don't care to muster up the energy fabricate a suitable replacement.

So in summation, yes I guess I could be optimistic and agree that
Just because we've failed before doesn't mean we can't succeed.but until I see projects that go beyond the scope of what that "Tablecat BBS" guy is doing and the failed attempt by the short-lived world5ch.net (which some say was a Milkribs operation), I'm sorry if I'm a bit pessimistic about it all.

There have always been, and always will be flamers, shitposters, or whatever else you want to call them. I've been keeping up my antics since telnet BBSes and Usenet, and now I've broadened my horizons to include web-based textboards as well. I've been shitposting longer than most of you have been alive.

I am not new, nor is shitposting (or whatever other term you'd like to use for it). You're kidding yourself when you say that `back in the old days /prog/ didn't suck''.

Being integrated with 4chan has had little impact on the shitty quality of World4ch.

In conclusion, deal with it or fuck off. If you want real programming discussion then go to comp.lang.*

not a fucking web text board.
