DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL YOU FUCKING NIGGER LOCK THE 'RU BEHIND SHARTY RELATED TRIVIA QUESTIONS ALREADY OR THE SHARTY WILL BE UNIRONICALLY MURDERED
Doll hasn’t been harsh enough on the website, he has been slowly leading the website to its death by being too passive and lean on nas coal, even captain coal did something about it
(Sorry in advance for ESL-tier grammatic mistakes lol)
No-NAS /soy/ might be a good idea in the short term but I don't think it's a good idea in the long-term.
Think on 4chan, it was created as the English counterpart to 2chan and its first users were dissatisfied users from Something Awful forums mainly from a sub-part of SA's dedicated to anime, 4chan had the main topic of anime and then it expanded into other niches, /pol/, /b/... If 4chan, on its most active board /b/, had banned non-anime discussion (4chan's main focus) it would have not become how big and good it became during its old age. We must learn from history and 4chan in this case took a good decision.
What I mean with this is that we shouldn't just be "/qa/'s offshoot dedicated to soyjaks" but something else and banning NAS on /soy/ would just restrict the growth of the sharty, yeah, it would be good in the short-term because soyjaks are funny and this No-NAS weekend has been really gemmy I must admit but in the long term it would make the sharty get stale and die down. If we want to preserve soyjaks and soyjak culture we must permit NAS on /soy/ so gemmy projects can spark and keep the sharty alive alongside with soyjak culture.
Sharty's past is /qa/ as 4chan's past was SA forums but 4chan outgrew and surpassed SA and sharty MUST outgrow and surpass /qa/. Nostalgy is a trap. >inb4 4cuck is le bad yeah, 4chan currently is a shithole but that's because it's 20 fucking years old without any major updates to its GUI of functionality and started targeting a really niche audience (anime fans), that's ancient for a website and I would be glad if the sharty lived as long as 4chan. >inb4 twitter/reddit screencap threads le bad Sure, most of them are coal but some of them have sparked big gems, the first one that comes to my mind is the eldergod thread. The 50-something loser that called us losers and raged when we laughed at his reddit account. Pic-rel for more info.
Doll, if you read this tell me your opinion on this or what flaws you see on my argument.
