Don't complain about the quality of the posts... especially on sewers. It's what killed the userbase off of the website the first time was people complaining about how shit a post was and drove people off because they didn't know what to post anymore. If it really doesn't belong on /sewers/ the mods will take care of it.

Below is my drafted sticky for /www/.

=================================================
Internet Culture & History
Welcome to /www/, the board for Internet Culture and History. Threads and topics on this board should pertain to discussing various forms of internet culture, including but not limited to content that celebrates, documents, reports, or shares the history of internet culture, communities, and user generated content (UGC) across the internet.

>What sort of topics should be discussed?
Videos, music, blogs, animations, web-based games and media, forums, and other topics such as legacy communities that fit into the general description of "Internet Culture and History" are suitable. However, these should all be tied to a proper thread rather than randomly posted without a broader context. While there is no concrete format that absolutely must be followed, please refrain from making generic posts without the broader purpose of this board in mind.
Random uploads unrelated to the general topic always have a home on /b/.

>What are some examples of historical UGC hosting sites / communities?
Sites such as Nico Nico Douga, YouTube, Newgrounds, 2ch, 4chan and so on are examples of websites that have hosted user generated content of historical merit. There is a great deal of internet culture and history that has been formed from sites such as these. Likewise, they each hosted unique communities that became distinctive enough to have their own sense of culture and identity.

>Supported Formats
/www/ supports the following formats: (Insert formats here)

>Wayback Machine & Archive.org
Many websites of yesteryear have been lost to time or are no longer hosted by their respective administrators. Many of these sites may be found as snapshots using Wayback Machine. Additionally, some older content may have been saved on sites such as Archive.org. This is particularly useful for archiving and saving previously lost media. Please make use of these sites when applicable if other options are no longer available.

>Flash content
General SWF content made in Flash can be hosted on /f/, however posts pertaining to the discussion of this sort of content are highly encouraged on /www/ due to their overall relevance and impact within the broader context of internet culture and history.

===============================================

Please feel free to amend or modify this accordingly. As for the appropriate image for said sticky, I have attached some examples for consideration.

Do you think /www/ should also include threads that dive into the internet? Stuff like >>>/b/305/ or >>>/b/4503/ for example. The internet is so filled with stuff, that most of it is only ever going to be seen by a few people. Sifting through it in search of the cool bits is quite interesting, and shows a different side of internet culture than usual.

It has come to our attention that the site may appear somewhat neglected as of late, and we wish to assure you that there is a valid reason for this.
Our staff has been occupied with the development of a new imageboard software based on the Django framework.
We are excited to present an early preview of our work, which you can access at https://alpha.22chan.org/.
We cordially invite you to participate in our alpha test and appreciate any feedback you might have regarding the site.

I suggest they should be at the very top section above the "General Boards", and rather have its own unique indicators (images, banners, whichever) to draw the users eye while also not detracting from the consistent theme design.

>"What is this?"
22Chan Town Hall was suggested in 2019, but was ignored. In 2020 it was mentioned again but nothing was done about it. 2021 came along and a thread was made but nothing came of it, And later the site shut down. This time, We are actually doing it.
Now back to the main question. Moot had a regular townhall where everyone on 4chan would gather on IRC to have a semi-meta roundtable discussion with all of the userbase, And later it moved to the /q/ board and the format changed to a single thread, We plan on doing the latter. The discussion in the thread can be serious and candid, or just general discussion. (good place for newcomers to get a QRD on 22chan and to know the staff better.)
This thread is to better refine the idea, Suggestions on what to do, Add, Or change, and even polls to decide stuff.
Here are the previous poll results.

What time should 22Chan Town Hall take place?
I.E When are you available? The time zone is in Central European Time.
First place: 9:00 PM
Second place: Staff should decide

How long should 22Chan Town hall last?
First place: 30 Minutes
Second place: For the whole day

When should 22Chan Town Hall occur?
First place: Staff should decide
Second place: Once weekly

Dispite the old results, I plan on setting up new polls. But i have a question. how long should voting last? How many days? Or months even?

This /meta/ thread is dedicated to the discussion of the creation of new threads, which would potentially serve as a kind of replacement to the previous "ideas" thread >>>/b/2003.
Many posts outline good thread ideas in detail, but due to laziness or other factors, they never lead to the actual creation of those said threads by the users. So this thread aims to potentially turn those ideas into collaborative efforts instead.
Share any of your potential thread ideas here, whether you plan to create them yourself, seek input from others, or believe someone else could execute them better. Others are encouraged to refine and improve each idea, including suggestions for thread starter images, correcting spelling errors, thread structure, and more.

A thread where people can link to posts on 22chan that they would recommend for newcomers or just users in general to read or consume. There are a lot of really interesting posts randomly scattered around everywhere it would be nice to compile them in some place so they are not lost to the bump order.

I was thinking of making a thread on /a/ in which if you spot a cat in an anime or manga, you post a screenshot. people can guess the genre and story of the anime based on how the caf is drawn. a more cartoony cat might mean comedy, a realistic cat might mean serious stuff, and so on.

While we’ve had discussions on how to increase activity, I want to take a step back and simply ask what you think of 22chan, whether you’ve just arrived or have been part of the community for a while.

How did you find out about 22chan?
What were your first thoughts as you explored the site?
What do you enjoy or hate most about 22chan so far?
Are there features, threads, aspects of site culture, or parts of the site that stand out?
(For instance, is there anything that’s made you feel hesitant to participate, or anything you find especially welcoming?)
For those who’ve been here longer, what keeps you coming back?

>How did you find out about 22chan?
Sometime a while ago, in a different altchan that doesn't exist anymore.
>What were your first thoughts as you explored the site?
I appreciated the quality. It seemed like a small, good, pure place. I found it boring at the time, however.
>What do you enjoy or hate most about 22chan so far?
I don't have much to hate about 22chan other than how dead it is. My favorite part is the fact that it's a small, insular community that cares about itself a lot.
>Are there features, threads, aspects of site culture, or parts of the site that stand out?
The sheer amount of fun, interesting, and quality of life changes made to the traditional *chan format is astounding. The inclusion of the IME Pad and Tegaki are some of my favorites.
However I admit that making posts here can be daunting at times, because it's a site and community that deserves real communication. For people who want to randomly shitpost, they should go to 4chan.
>For those who’ve been here longer, what keeps you coming back?
If I had to be honest, part of it is the lack of any other quality altchans around. If any serious competition comes around, even if the posts aren't as high quality, I'd worry about the health of the community. Something about the people who post here is very... suffocating, and this space has a very "professional" and 'well dressed' feeling to it that isn't as conducive to a huge number of posts. It simply cannot be both a highly active yet high quality chan.

Referral from a trusted friend.
>What were your first thoughts as you explored the site?
This is a funny nitpick but seeing /vg/ instead of /v/ makes me curious why it was called /vg/, as I am used to seeing Videogame Generals as a distinct thing.
>What do you enjoy or hate most about 22chan so far?
I love love the MP4 embeds. I can't quite make use of the NND embeds yet, sadly.
>Are there features, threads, aspects of site culture, or parts of the site that stand out?
I absolutely adore the IME Pad. It's a phenomenal feature. ♪ ✫ ♡
>Requests
At a glance certain things I'm familiar with on 4chan in the form of reply functionality not being here are a minor hindrance, but I actually prefer it being a little more of an inconvenience to have to go to the bottom of the page and so on for the sake of making it require effort. It's minimal effort but enough effort to deter undesirables.

I will have more to share in the future. There are also some things I don't know yet and will report back perhaps later on when I've been here awhile.

1. Sort the "News" by newest to oldest, rather than the current oldest to newest.
2. When using "Overboard" and reaching the end of the page, have a throbber or loading animation to indicate that more threads are loading on the overboard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throbber
3. When the thread's replies auto updates, I would like the (X) count in the title bar to update to (0) once I finished reading the new replies.
4. I would definitely like the suggestions thread to be around the front page (perhaps around the Information section) so it is easy for new visitors to find this thread and make suggestions.

Some of them can be used but some are just a collection of long text which wouldn't really fit into the quote feature. You also mention posts like 352 which quotes comes from a completely different website. It's just one long and confusing post which you should instead shorten to a small list of your favorite ones that can fit into the home page's quote feature.

I think it would be a good idea to remove all of the quotes that were added back then through suggestions on livechan and have it so that each quote on the home page links to an actual post on the website. It would make it a lot more authentic.
