Thank you for thinking about 4chan.
We had tried to keep 4chan as is.
But I failed. I am sincerely sorry.
Some notice there are no more middle ads and bottom ads on 4chan.
Ads don't work well. So we reduced advertisement servers cost.
4chan can't afford infrastructure costs, network fee, servers cost, CDN and etc, now.
4chan have three options.
-Halve the traffic cost
limit uploading image sizes
use slower servers.
close some boards
-Much more ads
pop-up / pop under ads
malicious ads
-More 4chan pass users
more features

Honestly though, if dragon porn can get funded via Patreon so can 4chan.

4chan possessing a patreon page is a fate worse than death.

why? let's assume there would be no "awards" except maybe 4chan passes and the board would become
ad-free with no changes. no "i helped save 4chan" badges or anything like that.
i bet a thousand people would pledge within the first day of 4chan's patreon.

Don't worry. Everything will be fine.

I don't understand. 4chan is still using CloudFlare, right? Traffic really shouldn't be a problem
even though the site has grown three times during 2016.
