This is a containment thread for meta discussion that doesn't fall into complaints and suggestions. Feel free to tinfoil or talk about the state of the site but try to avoid being too autistic.
If cerbmin needs to hear it, post it here. We occasionally monitor the complaints/suggestions thread as well. Please keep in mind we all have full-time jobs and tending the farm is a passion project. Changes may be slow, but we will prioritize quality over speed. We will do our best, anon!

>>53495With the old /m/ threads back alongside the new ones I think the threads should continue as it did as for example the harry potter thread gotten two threads since the bunker and if one were to participant in the thread from before the bunker which has 373 posts in it should be counted as necro since it's been a year and the topics regarding Harry Potter has since moved on to other things such as the game and the fact that after the bunker it has gotten two threads. What threads I think that fit this criteria is the fujothreads, bookthreads, the j-music thread
mostly beacause of that one anon drama/milk with that j-artist and what not etc… I also think if the the newer thread has more posts in it then the one before bunker it should be used instead as in the cookie run thread, husbando smell identification Thread, dubbing/localization thread, female gaze thread and for example an older thread with more posts like the Plush Creation and Appreciation thread should be used instead of the Plush general #2 thread but the link to that thread should be posted in the older one. The same would apply to the Temp Elsie Media Thread and Board-tan Media Thread
this topic also has a thread here on /meta/ but it is not getting used and the topic has been evolved into posting pics of Board-tan and X2. Nothing really comes to mind with threads that are very similar to one another even if the title of the thread is a bit different, so I'll let others deicide regarding it. Cerbmin when you guys and other anons that frequent /m/ finish discussing regarding this matter and come up with more define and clearer rules please post it in the thread that is pinned in /m/ so that everyone can know. I apologise if my wall of text isn't coherent enough and if it doesn't come with my points across but like I tried and I'm too dyslexic and tired to fix it

>>53549Cute but hard to reinforce

As of today the old Discord server is being retired and will be completely closed on the 14th of March. Future status updates about server downtime will be communicated on
https://status.lolcow.farm/. The link to the status page has been included in the navigation at the top and bottom of every page to make it easily discoverable for all users.
We hope that this will provide a drama-free and easily accessible channel of communication with our users about the status of the site!
>>53662>>53667The slow image issue is being worked on right now. We're doing what we can!
Essentially, this site is run on 12+ year old board software that's extremely unoptimized by modern internet standards. Image sizes and resolutions have gotten bigger and bigger over time and this poor old girl still thinks it's 2011, not to mention the negative impact of the unwanted traffic we get from people who want to harm the site.
After doing what we can to make the site run faster in its current form, we plan to spend the next while working on moving the board to a new platform. As previously mentioned, this will be done with the consent and input of our users.

>>53742>>53755IMO it's been picking up again recently for the first time since the December incident. The first couple weeks after the site came back online most of the threads I follow (even the MTF threads) felt deserted.
Hoping for a hellweek soon though. I think a majority of newfags aren't malicious, just younger and ignorant to imageboard culture. IMO a hellweek would help the ones that want to stick around to integrate better once they see the rules being fully enforced.

Lolcow today is like night and day compared to when shaymin was in power. The drama-free and transparent way you all are handling things around here is a breath of fresh air. It is very often a thankless job, so thank you all for stepping up to the challenge of saving a beloved site that's a billion years old! ♥
No. 53781
>>53776Idk if you're new to imageboards but… I'll bite.
Cows post pictures of themselves acting like other people. It can also be a useful thing for when death threats get posted with like, a picture from someone's device. For the most part, if someone wants to be cautious, they'll remove exif data. But exif data has helped catch criminals on imageboards before. The guy that said he steps on people's food at burger King and spits on their food, literally left exif data and that's how he was caught. Same story with Amber Coplin (murderer posted her picture on 4chan and they found shit out using metadata/exif data from his device).
This is not about doxxing some idiot anon that posted a pic of themselves. This is about catching the many other shitty people that get cocky because they think they're untouchable behind being anonymous. So they slip up and FAFO.

>>53781ah I understand, I'm not new here (really, have been here since 2016) but never used imageboards prior to lc and I only read threads interesting to me.

>>53801>>53844The usage of "the farms" was coined by the time we held that board-tan poll years ago.
Since the name of the site is lolcow.farm where there are cows that we make fun of, lolcow users farm for milk and moderators called farmhands for a reason. Or is there some other conclusion on why the term "the farms" came to be?
I mean some anons would use the term "the farms" with an capital F and some simply LC for the site but I always liked to use "the farms" since it was more thematic to the site and the fact I use the abbreviation LC in work near daily doesn't help the matter in not using it.

>>53742There is some improvement after the whole shaymin new lolcow fiasco but numbers are definitely fewer then we what we had from just a few years ago and I am worried about the non existent growth of lc's userbase, like obviously we don't need to be flooded with the usual twitter/tumblr types and potential moids/trannies but I have recommended lc to one of my close online friends and she uses it every now and then and I think we could do something similar on a larger scale, advertise lolcow to spaces that are more trustworthy

No. 53947
>>53946Not at all, I have a lot a faith in this site. I just think the idea is retarded. This site is not a secret, anyone can be told about it or know about it. We don't need "recruitment" or invites because there is no need for recruitment. It's an open free site that anyone can use so I literally don't even understand what the fuck she could possibly be implying. If she or you have friends, tell them about it like?? I don't possibly understand what even it could mean. Want a fucking billboard??
Does the site need more users? Sure. Do we need to actively try to garner them? Literally no. wtf. Plenty of people learn about this site on the daily as it comes under the microscopic lens of news sites and twitterfags/tumblrfags sperging about it on twitter, tumblr and tiktok. The ones that like the site stay, the ones that don't either get btfo for being a newfag or they just leave. The problem isn't that we are lacking new users, the issue is getting them to stay. Are we going to ignore the fact that cp is posted literally daily? Why would anyone besides oldfags want to stick around for that unless they had some investment (socially) in the site? New people join all the time, poke some fun and move it along.
I should also add that the site is terrible in the sense of: a lot of social faux pas, a lot of infighting, a lot of unpopular opinions for normal people, racebait, "
TERF" opinions. I like it and am okay with that so I stick around. But the average person is not going to want to stay and deal with that. Even if every single anon on this site invited just one person, I don't even think that would be enough for the site to be "active with likeminded people" because believe it or not I don't think there are that many likeminded people to begin with.

If a new engine(I don't the technical term) is going to be used for new lc, can there be at least a trial period to see what it's like aesthetically and function wise so we can avoid the mistake of shaymin and of course all the threads from the boards have to be migrated, that's not even a question

>>54560I disagree. It hasn't happened to me on Lolcow yet, bu multiple times, I've seen ban messages using my IP on 4chan. I know for a fact they're from VPN users because they're usually spam posts, too.
Also, is it so impossible for some moids to just live in the same countries as anons, and for IPs to be dynamic?
No. 54577
>>54560What is the official policy on VPNs?
Different admins have had different opinions. In my personal experience I didn't run into any issues using a VPN until a few years ago when I found that some of the IP ranges available with my VPN were blocked. The admin before Shaymin removed the block on some IPs after I asked her to. Shaymin seemed to want to ban them all and some IP ranges have gone back to either being blocked or being permanently banned with no reason given.

>>54605You do not need to click any links for that to happen
No. 54645
>>54572The false ban messages you get on 4chan is because of dynamic IPs and rangebans (bans based on internet providers and countries). The former is more possible on websites with millions of users, but extremely unlikely on a small website like lolcow.
VPNs don't use normal people IPs, like another anon said, they use their own, which is why they are more easy to identify once you research the IP provider and thus blocked in places like 4chan. So you'd have to use said VPN to encounter a ban on a VPN IP and even then it happens rarely, because most popular VPN providers have thousands to tenthousands of IPs. Though browsers with vpn feature, like opera, probably have less.
>>54607Yes you do, that article explains what IPs are used for and that they are being abused by hackers but not how the IP spoofing actually happens. Which is being infected with malware that gives access to more information than just your IP address. By that logic every single website owner could "hack your IP" and use/sell it as proxy as soon as you visit the website.

tbf i do think some of the other regular anons do take ss of articles as well (and i have sometimes when posting milk) but the way that person types or whoever else is involved is very much identifiable with the random dashes and trump-like typing, apparently samefagging as well. i'm starting to wonder if the thread should be moved back to /snow/ or be stricter on moderation because i'm unsure if it being in /ot/ is just inviting weird shit like this.

And again, what is considered sounding like a scrote differs from farmer to farmer and if you've been here for any amount of time then you've seen that a lot of anons will accuse each other of being moids for petty reasons. There's no clear guideline for that and it just doesn't really make any sense to ban anons for being "moidbrained" unless they're infighting or otherwise breaking an actual rule. As annoying as those anons are, this site isn't a hivemind.

>>54738This discussion has been already been held in the last thread with responses to all the assumptions in your post so I don't care enough to repeat them. I disagree that moids are always obvious. Unfortunately, especially recently, they seem to get unnoticed at first because muh benefit of doubt and shit up several threads until they finally get banned or anons respond earnestly to them, giving them fooder for whatever they came here for. On other websites, they are openly admitting to posting here freely, for example
>>54221 where the moid openly admits to posting in the Vent thread, Get it off your chest thread, Confessions thread and on /g/ and probably has an extensive post history due to it. In the complaints thread there are anons currently mentioning a pol moid shitting up celebricows.
It ruins the board atmosphere and sooner or later prompts this website to get infiltrated with the same garbage you have on any other imageboard. Actually, I don't know why any woman would want to visit non-dramaboards just to bring up the same pol/r9k/misogynistic garbage they can find in any other place.

Apologies if this is a bad idea but could we do something for april fools? I think it would be fun. It doesn't have to be something extravagant

>>54844>>54840>>54839>>54838>>54836>>54833>>54831The supposedly allowed heart is the black heart suit Unicode character (U+2665) which on many modern browsers, particularly mobile, now gets parsed as the heart suit emoji. The original "no emoticons or emoji" lolcow rule was obviously introduced prior to this, so now we really do need a proper updated consensus if this one emoji can still be allowed.
