Greetings, anon I'd like to clear a few things up for you and any future newcomers. The best way to have a better understanding of 22chan is to lurk on the site more, please.
>Is this the same admin running the site from before?
Sadly, our previous administrator shut down 22chan last year after growing distance from it. There are mixed feelings about this from the user base and a unified sentiment from our current administration team. 22chan's current administrators decided not to let one person decide the future of the site. 22chan means something to enough people to the point it was worth reviving the site when Twoot was done with 22chan. To avoid another sudden shutdown, we delegated multiple trusted people to watch over 22chan as Twoot did in the past. Twoot has no affiliation with the current 22chan due to personal disagreements.
>Also what happened to the userbase? Did they all leave?
What do you mean by that? The questions need to be clarified before a good answer can be given.

>>196
I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the userbase was lost after being in the livechan for 9 months. I'm still here, but I can't think of a good way to determine how many others moved on.
You could access detailed traffic stats on the old site and the last time I checked there was an average of around 100 unique visitors per day. I wonder how we compare to that now.

>>197
I wouldn't either, though fortunately it looks like a lot of people made it through the transition. I don't know how many oldfags there are though-- or how many people heard about this place within the last year or two.
I'm not particularly worried about our population; as long as it's committed and dedicated to regularly making high quality posts, I think we'll be fine. That's the catch though; dedication. It's easy to get on the site, see there's been three posts in the same usual spots, and then immediately leave because there's nothing really happening.

For some reason the picture didn't post. I got a 500 Server Error so maybe that's the reason.
Here's attempt number 2

>>199
Yeah, most people who did leave left as soon as Twoot announced he was shutting down 22chan. The problem with Altchans is that it is a Game of Thrones of succession, and there are constantly random people thinking they can be the next 4chan. Randoms constantly accuse every Altchan of trying to be the next 4chan even when they aren't (22chan isn't trying to be 4chan). My point is that there are a lot of fairweather people who are only here when things are going well. I remember complaining about 4chan being active, probably because of these fairweather people who probably have Stockholm syndrome.

>cycling is a boring sport
Are you stupid? Cycling is literally the best thing ever. You literally can go anywhere. Its more efficient than running, you gain a higher stamina, from racing to exploring to even drifting you can never get bored. I always say hi to the local cats when i bike. Satoru from one punch man is a real fucking hero and what does he do? Ride a fucking bike.
Such is the joy of cycling.
Finally, a real fucking anime.

For thousands of years the anonymous individual either wreaked havoc or made important changes in the world. the founding fathers used fake names to protect the identities. Japanese businessmen tired of being polite decided to speak out about work and their bosses anonymously in the first Japanese imageboards. You might be tired of modern society and wanted to find a place with like-minded people. You might want a place that actually encourages productive behavior and discussion. You might want a place to post where you can speak your mind without censorship or being reported to the thought police. Either way it means you are a different type of person.

BREAKING NEWS: The cow recently spotted in mid-air around 22chan is in fact the famous drug lord Carlos Lehder, wearing a costume. The man, a co-founder of the infamous Medellín Cartel, has been released from prison in 2020 due to health conditions; however the reasons for his bizarre visit are unclear.
We invite the 22chan userbase to exercise caution. Do not try to contact the man. Any further developments will be posted.

hi guys I know it's been a few days but I've finally got some free time to post. I've been held at gunpoint for the past few days while he has continued to cover my room in milk. he basically filled the whole room, then cleaned everything, and then repeated the process and threatened to kill me if I spoke even a single word. he started monologuing about how much he hates alligators and told me that I would not be the only one to be punished. apparently, he hacked into my computer's bluetooth port and figured out that I'm a user of a cowlisted website. you see these conflicting reports over this single cow in this thread? turns out, they are DIFFERENT cows. the cows are COMING. LOCK your doors and CLOSE your windows because they are INFILTRATING our society and they will show NO remorse.

>Also admin, would it be possible to do the same thing but have it specific to each board? (in the future of course) To elaborate further on this, each board would have a quote feature like the front page but it would only contain quotes specific from the board itself.
Is everyone in agreement to such a feature?
Also regarding the 22chan software there might be a few new announcements coming soon but I can't promise anything.

>>137
I feel like this should be integrated with the post of the month thread if we're going through with it, with there being one quote per board that would be voted out for a new one every so often. Having such specific quotes up permanently just seems like we're trying to force inside jokes
Also, when will we be getting new banners? We need those as well.

>>132
Does anyone like or dislike my suggestions?

>>177
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.

>>99
Here's some transparency: The post was removed without the other moderator/janitors input first. I assume it was removed for normal-faggotry but unless it's some actual shit post I think it should be reported in the moderation thread first for it's wrong doing and giving the poster an actual chance to respond. There is currently no ruleset for janitors/moderators, so basically, a free for all. I'll try and talk this through with the current team and see what we can do to prevent this in the future. I will reinstate your post just repost the picture you used for the post in this thread.

Why do you assume the thread is low quality just because it revolves around posting videos? Maybe I post an interesting video that sparks a discussion? Maybe someone posts a webm from a different country and anons discuss what it's like to live there? Maybe anon has already been there and can share stories? Maybe anon posts a webm and wants to know others opinions on said webm? A thread like this could literally be a goldmine for all kinds of discussion. And what makes you think a thread like this would take priority over other threads? Since we're so focused on qualityposting, wouldn't they be evenly matched? There's already a thread on /b/ that revolves around posting Youtube links, how is that thread any different? It's the same gimmick, just links instead of webm files.

I for one thought that retarded cat video was very interesting. The editing and pace of the video felt like an assault on the senses, it was so strange. The song felt stupid but I found myself humming it hours later. I loved the low budget animation style. I thought it was a very weird video and I thought anon might get a kick out of it.

I know qualityposting is our whole thing (and I love that about 22chan) but I swear, sometimes you guys feel like one of those helicopter parents who put massive effort into keeping their kid sheltered and safe but end up hurting the kid in the long term. I did not intend for that thread to be a dump site. I intended it as a thread where anons could share cool, miscellaneous videos and have a good time.

>>89
Then maybe put some effort into the OP to indicate it isn't just a dump thread. That couldn't be so hard could it? The Youtube thread you mentioned does not just have just "Post Youtube videos." as its post content but actually tells people to elaborate on them because every random who finds 22chan just assumes it's a dump thread and will dump his shitty webm folder on there.

>>89
The questions you mention in your post is absolutely what I would love to see in a thread like that but why is it that you think everyone just assumes the same as you do without you elaborating first? Why is it so hard to make a OP that isn't just a single sentence. You have all the time in the world to create your thread and to destroy any misconceptions that people might have about it.

>>91
Do you also need someone to tell you what to post because otherwise you'd just smash the keyboard? Fucking retard

>>92
Since we're all about quality here I assumed anons would get the message and not post mindlessly but you make a good point.

>>93
I lol'd but let's not devolve into name calling.
