Has he blessed us with a chance for /b/ to no longer suck?

Quote:
   I've increased the time-between-posting limits. You now need to wait 30 seconds to post a reply, 45 seconds to post a reply with an image, and 600 seconds (10 minutes) to create a new thread.

   Why these changes? Think about it--providing you aren't a fucking moron, you might just figure it out.

   /b/ moves way too fast these days (over 110,000 posts per day), which is a very *mixed* blessing. Sure there is a bunch of "fresh" content, but what good is fresh when it's all crap? People spam threads to force memes, flood, combo, etc. Hopefully this will help cut down on that and encourage users to actually think to themselves "IS MY THREAD/REPLY SHIT?" before posting. The image reply interval doesn't need to be low. Quite frankly, dump threads on /b/ are fucking stupid. Use the other 30+ imageboards we have to do so (providing they're on topic).

   I'll tweak the limits if need be, but honestly I only see them going up at this point, not down.

   tl;dr: Stop sucking so much. Pay attention to what you're posting or you're going to hit insane timeouts and/or be banned.

   EDIT #1: Protip- If you're the type of person who thinks this is the end of the world, you're the exact type of poster I'm trying to curtail/get rid of. Fuck off and leave /b/ before you destroy it any further.

   EDIT #2: I've also increased the threads-per-page to 20 15 (up from 10). It's annoying to read through a page and move on to the next just to find that you're staring at essentially the same page you just left. 20 might be a bit high so it might be lowered down to 15 or so. Page limit is still at 10, so this effectively doubles the number of threads that can exist at any time on /b/. This also might need tweaking.

   EDIT #3: Filesize limit decreased from 3MB to 1.5MB. We have the cOoKiEs boards and /hr/ for a reason. Pretty much all of the images on /b/ are compressed and sub-0.5MB. This should still allow for large-ish images to be posted (seriously, if your image is larger than 1.5MB, something is fucked or it belongs on another board), and things like embedded book RARs to remain, while cutting down on abuse.

   EDIT #4: Bump/image reply limits increased a bit. A thread can be bumped 500 times (up from 250-300) before it cannot be bumped further. New image reply limit is 200 (up from 100). This was changed to help cope with the doubling of threads-per-page and thus doubling of the amount of active threads on /b/. Sage-bombing/spamming doesn't fucking work--it just shits things up. Stop doing it. Use the reports system instead!

   EDIT #5: The number of lines from a reply that display on an index page has been lowered from 30 to 10, and replies shown from 5 to 3. Most posts on /b/ are short and to the point, the only things over 10 lines in length tend to be copy-pasta and huge ASCII spam (ie. stupid shit). Five replies shown per thread is [now] a bit overkill--the OP in addition to 3 replies should give you enough of an idea of whether or not a thread is worthwhile/interesting or not. Changed threads-per-page from 20 to 15. Lowering this also makes sense since you're now seeing 4x15=60 which is comparable to the old 6x10=60. See, it balances out! [For people who are morons, those equations mean OP+REPLIES-SHOWN * THREADS-PER-PAGE = POSTS-PER-PAGE]

I keep seeing the same twelve threads on the front page, and for once, I'm kind happy.
Maybe I'll go back to /b/ moar.

Moot implies that if these shitty threats are reported, the user will get b&.

But the spamming is fucking annoying. I just wish he made rules about camwhoring. That shit's just as annoying, if not more.

With such limits, /b/ would just slow down big time. No new content will be created what-so-ever. Spamming will continue regardless the limits ( Lol, proxies) and cancer is not removed, sage still does shit and only thing to do is to report.

Or is this just moots excuse to lower bandwith costs? Everyone have seen the ads...

I can see how this might work. I've come across mention of various limitations put into effect before. Liek one point when the only thing you could use to communicate was the e-mail(?) field. Things continued to function except with far moar win.

On the downside of faggotry remaining longer the win will also remain longer to counter it. Even epic win threads currently have a lifespan of about 45 minutes at best. And things go so quickly that many /b/tards never see it since all you can really do is refresh the front page constantly. Even if the faggotry doesn't change, I'd visit /b/ moar often just because you can spend a little time just enjoying the winrar that shows up rather than desperately trying to read and download/save everything you can before it vanishes.

Besides, these aren't pro spammers making a living off this shit, it's a bunch of 12-year-old failures who are lazy. Messing with proxies and finding loopholes is work and work is bad. If they have to do that shit, they may as well go after a major forum or something where it might actually have a lulzy effect instead of pissing in an ocean of piss. The harder it is to spam, the less they'll do it.

My answer is simple, no matter how much Moot does to try to redeem himself, Moot = Faggot.

EDIT #6: FORCED_ANON re-enabled for a bit. We'll see how this goes. As for the "Error: Cannot find record." and subsequent thread stagnation that occurred earlier, it was a BUG, not a feature. See the status blog for more on that. For those bitching about "WAAA, /b/ WILL MOVE TOO SLOW NOW!"?you're fucking morons (and probably newfags). /b/ gets a metric fuck-ton of traffic, and will still move more than quickly enough. The thread creation timeout is to encourage people to create decent threads, and discourage the morons who used to post thread after thread after thread of absolute shit, which only pushed "good" content off of the board and didn't contribute anything.

OH MY.

the ridiculous speed off /b/ was one of the main reasons i migrated to /v/

you refresh the page, there's new shit, but you can also check the threads you posted in without having to save every thread in a tab with noko in
