>threads allow unlimited posts.That's not true. Per the Usage Info page
>Boards have unlimited pages and threads allow 1200 posts. All threads will "bump-lock" shortly before 1200 posts. This means further posts will no longer bump a thread. They will become hard-locked shortly after this, meaning you can no longer post in them.Is the bug causing duplicate posts being addressed?

There is no need to transcribe videos manually!
1 Download the subtitles using
http://www.downsub.com2 Change the file extension to txt and open it in a text editor app
3 Strip the html code using
http://www.zubrag.com/tools/html-tags-stripper.php4 Strip the srt code using
http://www.gopetsamerica.com/webmaster/srt-to-text-online-converter.aspx5 Edit the text for word accuracy and to add punctuation and numerals (numbers are stripped in step 4). The auto generated subtitles are surprisingly accurate, depending on the person's enunciation. You may not even need to listen to the video.
I hope the other transcript anons find this helpful!

>>>/ot/334208 This specific thread (Celebricows) isn't loading for me on mobile or desktop. I just get a blank page back, no console errors.
I tried opening it from the catalog and normally, neither work.
Not sure if this is happening to others as well.

>>7898I can't think of anywhere similar to lolcow tbh. c.c. is too uwu cutesy for my taste and KiwiFarms isn't anonymous and has mostly males.
Maybe the anons who applied for admin/mod positions could band together create a new chan?

PLEASE USE ARCHIVE SITEShttp://www.archive.isNot only because screenshots can be faked but because the timestamps on them often do not include the date and do not use UTC (screenshots taken in different timezones have different timestamps).
Archiving the page also preserves the context of replies.
