[Rules] [FAQ] [Fringe Guide] [Ranks] [/fringe/] [/asatru/] [/edgy/] [/4chon/] [/lel/] [/ask/] [Fringechan]
The rules are simple and only apply to the creation of threads on /fringe/:
1. No duplicate threads of topics that already exist unless the previous thread has hit the bump limit.
2. No making threads just to ask questions, actually present substantial information if you're going to make a thread.
3. No creating new threads purely to shitpost (you will be forgiven if it's a major GET).
4. Post threads that fall under the subject matter of /fringe/ (creepypasta FYI generally does not fall under /fringe/'s very broad subject matter, look at the sticky to see what subjects we discuss on /fringe/).

/edgy/ has recently been fixed for all you indigopills out there

/fringe/ is being moved to Next

http://beta.8ch.net/fringe

I presently fucking hate Next. I don't have access to my computer and won't for days. The CSS is all fucked there, I need someone to fix it and send me the code, although I don't even know how to log into the board owner panel on there while on Android still in order to implement the changes. I'd fix it all myself if I could use my PC that has Linux on it right now.

If it weren't in a completely fucked state right now, I'd lock down this whole board (locking all the threads) and post a reply in every thread on the first page redirecting people to the new /fringe/ over there.

As it is right now though it's completely unuseable.

Help.

Another option would be to setup a single board chan like /a/ did with smuglo.li

I have mentioned this on /tech/ in hopes that someone would make a mesh net chan software with one board per site and the non-shills seem to like it.

I can easily setup a chan specifically for fringe stuff, have no problem buying a domain name either. The problem is I don't have the experience or time to moderate the board itself. Any mod/admin up for it? I'm deadly serious, setting up an alternative stable chan is the least I can do for all the knowledge /fringe/ has provided me and others.

I can, and would be willing to, help moderate it. But however due to my life I can not guarantee years of stability, otherwise I would volunteer for fulltime adminship (I do not want to be MIA due to my life when in need).

I have no problems helping out as much as I can, which right now is several hours a day, but I do not know how long this will last. So I would at least need another to help, in case the winds of fate turn into a maelstrom again.

>>67353

It was dedicated to /fringe/ pretty much. There where a few other related boards /astral/ (for AP journaling, projects, meetups, etc.), /ask/ (questions thread, the board), and a few other minor boards that where related to the ubermensch culture that fringe attracts, but alas did not see a whole lot of use, /ss/ (physical sustainability/self sufficiency), /si/ (for physical self improvement). There where also some hidden boards you had to find with magic, either for tho board itself and/or the password as well.

You can check it out here;

http://web.archive.org/web/20140502012021/http://freedomboard.kirara.ca/

Really though, the main attraction was /fringe/ it self, and the fact that it had an unlimited number of pages (well, last I heard it was 1000) so good content was never deleted/lost cus of people making stupid 1 post threads or due to flooding.

I think so. But to be entirely honest I'm not 100% sure.


 No.67435

I was wondering, if you guys decide to start a new imageboard, why not throw into the project also a new library with updated links and extra features we don't usually find in hosts such as Mega? For example if one of two of us can code PHP we could create like a page for each of the recommended books, and people could add comments, report broken links, mirrors etc.

Do you think this would be feasible? Even if we don't host the books ourselves, it would be nice to have a better library than just keeping a mega page that you can't index or modify easily


 No.67439

Please revive Freedomboard


 No.67441

>>67354

I am grateful for your explanation. It seems likely that we will follow the structual template that freedomboard has provided.

>>67435

That is certainly possible, but it out the scope of a chan. Besides that, you can replicate it by having a board dedicated to books, and have a sticky for indexing. A dedicated scripted feature like you proposed can take quite some time. And both of the solutions I mentioned require moderation too. Just a heads up, I'm a web developer for a living, and obviously have quite some experience with these sort of systems.

you only ever need a handful of books.

hoarding dozens of books just makes you an armchair occultist sine 99% of occultism is bullshit and if you really wanted to help beginners you'd post your own guides and tipps.


 No.67502

>>67495

I don't see any moderation there. Whoever owns it doesn't even try to look like a viable alternative. And I am now aming to create a replica of Freedomboards – something that currently simply doesn't exist. It would cover most of everything that anyone would require that visits current /fringe/, and most likely even beyond current fringe. If its up to me, we won't migrate until where me plan to migrate to is proper, moderated, and fullfils our rational needs. endchan.xyz/fringedoof'd/ doesn't look like the solution I have in mind, at all. I'm not here to bash your suggestion. At all. This is more a statement that I simply feel like we need an adequate alternative, as I just described.

8chan, and specifically this board, is getting more annoying to deal with in terms of slow update times, double posts and posts not comming through at all. This is killing. For us to wait until it becomes 'completely impossible' is like having a disease and waiting for it to competely engulf the body before trying to deal with it.
