Client-scripted Bitcoin miners and malware

All them?

Well let's just ban phone posters and traffic will drop 60%.

on top of the malicious adds and pop-up ads. It's android/iOS hell from now on.

>no date
>no postnumber

Erase /vip/, /his/, Sup Forums and /s4s/

He was too lazy to do anything at all
This website could save costs substantially by using Oyster Pearl and WebP, along with deleting Sup Forums

if memory serves, this was over a year ago on /qa/

>erase Sup Forums
>either Sup Forums floods every other board even more than usual
>or mods try to keep a lid on things, banning anyone with even vague wrongthink, and turn the site into NeoGAF
sometimes leaving a blister alone is the best option

>>erase Sup Forums
>>either Sup Forums floods every other board even more than usual
If Sup Forums was deleted I'd have little reason to visit Sup Forums unless there's a major dota tournament going on and I'm lurking /d2g/
I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way about Sup Forums

except Sup Forums was just Sup Forums before Sup Forums

>Erase ... Sup Forums
Some men just want to watch the world burn.
It would go exactly like says. Or somehow even worse.

Option D)
Cancel working with legit advertisers like J-List, only get the most malicious ads, secretly implement a cancerous anti-adblock script which might even data/cryptomine the users, and don't even consider fundraising or getting money in a way that is not sketchy as fuck

Newfag doesn't know about the previous incarnations of Sup Forums and what Sup Forums used to be like

Nothing would change. Polacks are everywhere on this website already.

So far the second option, and soon the third. I vaguely remember him saying he wants to make the native archive a paid feature. Guess what happened very recently? Third party archival sites like rbt/desuarchive/etc were getting IP blocked because their scrapping bots were being detected. Some user's little private one wasn't affected, and yuki.la wasn't affected as badly because it's decentralized (note that this isn't a solid way to scrape content - even with lots of users some data isn't caught). But this is the path we're heading down.

Sup Forums was ironic, Sup Forums is unironic.

It would change. It would be in a far worse state than it is now and you know it. I don't want to imagine the number of children running around crying "waahh where's my pol! reeeeee!!!!".

Just fucking add more pass functionality already chinkmoot

Block third-party archives.
There is 1400GB of active content right now. Typical users don't consume all of this, but archives do.
It would be a dramatic decrease in bandwidth.

LOL

>Sup Forums was ironic
"ironic" shitposting and memes literally only started in 2010, you're just rationalizing

How is Sup Forums hosted?
Co-lo, vps, his basement?

they probably still need a cdn, but there are probably cheaper ways.

>t. QuadraNet customer colocating on the same rowswitch

If you've browsed Sup Forums without an adblocker recently you'll know which one he chose.

>He wasn't around to witness the effects of erasing /new/

>Typical users don't consume all of this, but archives do.
What? Why should they? They only scrape active threads because you can't post in archived ones.

>newfag calling an oldfag newfag

I think ads? Clover has none and I use PiHole on my network

Hiro didn't block the content, he blocked the API. Which is low filesize queries.

I don't know why Hiro is blocking all the archivers. Maybe it's so threads like this and Malwaregate won't be archived.

Cloudflare.

At least 2 and 3 at the same time.
No need to detail what he's done for 2 yet.
For 3, holiday events are now pass-only (see: halloween), /vip/ is a thing, and hiro started blocking archives and stating they would be pass-only.

Why did he block the archives?

Oh, I guess he also does 1
>use slower servers
>is2

Hiro's having a meltdown for whatever reason. Typical shit that happens during/before a meltdown.

Japanese sheckles

>for whatever reason
he is on meltdown because his try to inject ads got blocked fast on Sup Forums and some other boards like /qa/ and Sup Forums

...

>Hiro didn't block the content, he blocked the API
That's retarded. I would have flipped that.
Block downloading the images for archivers, but leave the API for threads.

Delete the archive from blue boards

archived.moe/qa/thread/786936/#789006

Interesting that desuarchive link also says that people using clover have been blocked too. Now that I think about it I was 'banned" a few days ago when using clover too.

So this is either due to cover changing our Hiro lifting the blocks because I can use it now.

So is he going to ban all phoneposting soon enough unless we buy a pass just like he did in Japan?

delet this

LEAVE /HIS/ ALONE.

>newfag calling an oldfag a newfag

There are no oldfags anymore.

Clover testeroonie

Huh guess it works fine

>segfaults

Pajeet, my son

>they thinks that's java

Just get rid of all the boards that aren't Sup Forums and Sup Forums.

What the fuck else even is there.

how would this save money you brainlet

>make everyone who wants to use Sup Forums torrent the Sup Forums app
>app includes shitty memes, pasta, standard hur-dur
>instead of sending pics to users just send something along the lines of "display.pepeV4389343-tfw.mildlyExistentialistNostalgicRetardation"

Wait, he blocked the JSON read-only API?

Switch to a p2p distribution model
problem solveded

Removing the need to host a shit ton of anime and porn?

like a couple 500kb gifs of futa on /d/ can compare to the sheer volume of text only diarrhea that Sup Forums or Sup Forums output

Remove /gif/ before even thinking about removing Sup Forums or Sup Forums. But I am partial to putting Sup Forums out of its misery.

Donate or die was better, this is cancer. Let it die so Snacks can rebuild this website sans niggers a la Sup Forums.

He choose to record and capture as much data as possible and sell it to the highest bidder. He works with Hottolink and other companies. His own company Brazil Something Something does exactly this. There are also these data collection threads almost on every boards. They are Hiro's.
I would LOVE to see phoneposters banned. That would solve two things: ease bandwidth and get rid of facebook normies at least somewhat.

Isn't this site like top 20 in active users world wide? How in the fuck can't he figure out how to monetize it.

More like erase you.

>good boards

ha

>/s4s/
>good board
this is a meme and it needs to die
>b-buh moot said s4s is the new Sup Forums
that was to attract newfags

Can I get those numbers proving how full of it he is?

Half the boards should be closed and block all phoneposting.

what's your problem with /checkem/ and /polwithdates/?

>Sup Forums is dying

Hiro has rangebanned a ton of mobile ISPs already. He's still having issues apparently.

I think I got played into click a link on Sup Forums I shouldn't have. It was some mining service. Some new coin.
anyways now and again something eats 70% CPU usage under the name of "System 32bit". I've done a malware scan and deleted like 50 different threats.
These ads really need to end.
Also Chink moot is lying. he's trying to maximise profits at our expense

moot knows better. You could say Sup Forums created Sup Forums and for this reason it has an obligation. Though a lot of the old fags ran away some years back

>muh bandwidth

Never understood this meme. Ban mobile users and set up a proper image cache. 90% of the pictures posted here could be easily cached because it's the same garbage every time.

So is safe now? Argon got explained and proved to be just anti-adblocker messing stuff?

My own thread was moved by mod to /adv/ for no reason where it died.

Archives are completely against what Sup Forums partly was about. Volatile content.

Is Sup Forums dying. fucking finally i can leave this place

It's so fucked up the board CSS won't load sometimes with all the malware domains blocked

Phoneposters are the majority of people getting effectively datamined

>good board
>90% duplicate thread of "this is a nice board"
>95% of the content is the same fucking purple dinosaur thing

into the oven you go

>Sup Forums was ironic,
>being this new

And thus all the images are already in everyone's cache and little bandwidth is used :^)

Fuck this whole site, its full of redditors since GG. I will donate to Hiro if he shuts this place down.

>thus all the images are already in e
I mentioned nothing about bandwidth.
I said they just post different varriations of the fucking purple dinosaur. each variation has to be saved so it doesnt save any bandwidth.
even if the same one gets reposted later it will have a new file name and have to be redownloaded.

Why doesnt he ask for donations wikipedia style, or just do a pantreon

>donate to Sup Forums!

Oh shit, early days of Sup Forums all over again!

remove Sup Forums, /lgbt/, /mlp/, /trash/, /s4s/, /bant/, /qa/, /vip/
leave /biz/ and /his/ tho

split the site.
the boards that are overrun with newfags and normies can get their own site, i.e Sup Forums, Sup Forums, Sup Forums.

Except hiro would definitely run to mootxico

Force these boards to secede:
>Sup Forums
>Sup Forums
>/mlp/
>Sup Forums (I am 50/50 on this)
>/cm/
>/lgbt/
>/soc/

To get more shekels, reinstate /loli/ and limit it to pass users only.

Have you tried killing yourself? I have a handy guide if you need help.

m00t would know what to do

t. triggered Sup Forumsack

Worse, triggered horsefucker.

Honestly /b is complete cancer. End that board

Yeah but it's supposed to be complete cancer, it's a containment board.

Sup Forums and Sup Forums are where all the redditors who are new and just heard of Sup Forums go (it used to be just Sup Forums).
If you delete it, these people will realize that there are other boards and infect everything.
