Thanks to a newcomer to the lulz team, the share board will be returning sometime (soon? not 100% sure) but not as it was before. Our idea is to make it like 4chan's rapidshare board (http://rs.4chan.org/) only it will rely solely on users to directly add the URLS and information to the board (4chan's script searches the boards for links and automagically adds them.)
This means that there will be no images added directly to the share board, nor will there be a means of discussing the files on the share board. There will be a way for users to report malicious content (such as a virus or child pornography.)
The content of the new share board will not be limited to furry art, but it is assumed that this will be the main theme among posts.
Will there still be a place to make requests for content from xyz?
>>2
There will be no requests specific board.
This may be a good time for some of the users to get involved with IRC, where you can say whatever you want. Hint.
Will not "no place to post" make problems for people finding completly new stuff of stuff that they dont know it's names?
That kind of board is only as good as keywords you know to search for, but well see top 3 toppics "seach like" here are dreamkeepers and pleasure bon bon, for example if someone does not know it's names he/she will not type it in search
Yeah you could say IRC. I imagine n people asking for a particular stuff every 1 min, and all comments will be erased automaticly after lest say 30 min. It is not good either imo
Thinking about it it is odd that problem was only with share not all. They are on same server. Boards look same also. The only difrence share board had 2-3 times more toppics than any of other boards, and image board is toppic limitted. In # of toppics, once it goes over page 19 bye bye. It must have reached it's limit in # of toppics/post to keep track or it was only to make space or server hdd, if files were not changed at random that is.
I still say a forum would be moreeasy. Both to maintain (since there are a lot of forrums to look for info about some problems if they happen like phpBB tech forum on their own site ir invisionboard) and easy for people to post and other.
make a request board also?
Closeing threads, aint it a bit childish? Not to say rude.
That was not a good move.
If we are being so detailed why is there so much "no furry junk" on imageboards -> furi :p it shuld bbe on some other sub board
They are only here becouse share board is down for so long time.
And instead share board fixed it will be changed to non-topic, non-release name track, non-request automated list of uploads.
Maybe point peope where should they move, before they start to get kicked around
no offence

this is a site discussion board. it is not meant to replace /share/ while it is down.
you should wait until the new share is up before you complain so much. :(
also i think you may have misunderstood some of what i said about what the new share will be. it will not be automated. users will be adding the entries to the 'board' and there will be labels along with a description of what each download link is for.
Maybe my complaining will make it better ;)
Only thinking ahead, pros, cons, new ideas, stuff like that ;)
so no commenting?
I like this idea, in tandem with a request board.
You can request shit in /furi/, there doesnt need to be a special board for it.
>>11
This. Just don't make a habit out of creating threads just for requests. It's gonna be give and take. Request threads better have some content of their own if you're going to expect help. This may be a new rule of /furi/ when we get share up.
i'm a gay furry
dont let them bump the same fucking thread ten times a god damned day when there is no content
please
;.;
because thats whats going to happen. furi is going to get flooded like no ones business and it scares me choob :( i need a hug :( :(
Let it be similar to 4chan's RS, but maybe incorporate a tag system like rule34's. Maybe add something so the distributor can add some info about what he's sharing.
Honestly though, I really liked the format of the old /share/ though.
>>12 any estameted date or idea of when will share resurrect!?
Any news on eta time?
Also i hope reporting malicious content will not be tied to host where the file/s are hosted becouse they dont check it and delete files in most cases, and will be check'ed for false positives made by propobly in most cases (evil) people (artists) that made files and dont want the contend to be shared. And we dont want that to happen. Now dont we? ;)
Sorry, can't give an ETA for the new /share/ board. Sit tight.
i liked the old /share/ board
only problem i had with it was multiple threads for the same artist/site/cds. a search feature would stop all those duplicate boards (or Ctrl+F on the subback page(lazy bums))
just get rid of the default /share/ and just use the subback page
um hi this new furry share board how long again till its finish because i was using paws.ru till they recently banned for what idk lol anyway fuck them.
oh come its months alrdy bring the old one back and clean it every month till you make then new one...
Would not that mean reuploading stuff all over each month?
anyway, i hope this will not take tooooooooooooooooooo long time now
C'mon cho0b, let people "test drive" new share board. If there will be need for fixing some bugs i bet they will be noticed faster than when you will do it alone :) You dave somthing made right? If not bring back old share for the time being. It will be better than nothing at all
wow this is seriously taking forever, just put it back up and every month sweep it clean
I loved the old /Share/ Board :( To Hard to Find Content on 4Chan
yea its all confusing to find anything there :S
agreed
>just get rid of the default /share/ and just use the subback page
This.
Also, there should be a rule about not making multiple threads to ask for the same thing.
>a search feature would stop all those duplicate boards
However, I don't agree with this. Since the main problem of the /share/ board was that it was taking a lot of memory, this only will make the things worse.
>or Ctrl+F on the subback page
But you are right about this. I mean, JUST USE IT, FOR FUCK'S SAKE.
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST WHEN THE FUCK IS THIS SITE RELEASING THIS GODDAM NEW SHARE BOARD, HOW LONG AGAIN DO WE HAVE TO FUCKEN WAIT SERIOUSLY IM LOSING MY PATIENTS HERE T_T.
Just so you know. Copying 4chans /rs/ board is gonna be gay. It was fine the way it was.
patience my lulzians, patience. our team is working on a completely new imageboard script to replace the current lulz software. it will be worth the wait.
We're trying. Can we at least get an ETA?
can we at least have the old board back and cleaned out in the meantime?
whats the word,
can we have a fresh old board for now?
what percentage of the new board is complete?
why so shareless?
I had a thought!
What about a way to add a brief description of the file? Most names (rapidshare wise) dont seem to always spell out what is in the file...
In .zip's you can add "archive comment". The question is if people are aware of it and if they will check them
Anyway. It is taking too long. If new board is not made/started at all then bring back old one, propobly will be clean at first but it is BETTER than NOTHING
Be aware you are being targeted by British trolls.
hurp durp
it seems share is taking its time getting done, does anyone have a similar alternative, without the risk of being deleted, or going into a prolonged "revamp"?
I'm not even a fucking /i/nsurgent and even I don't appreciate your whiteknighting.
We're a fucking board for trolls nigger, you think we can't take over 9000 images of gore (which half of us will fukken save).
Hell, we might even appreciate the presence of non furfags on this board.
Stop wasting our fucking time.
>>46
The thread has been on there for ages and has what..4 posts?
That /i/ board is only one guy posting with 6 proxies, seriously.
You lie!
I'd rather have it possible to discuss the files imo
