  here's what i was going to post when the thread 404'd

  >>3149806
  >there may not be enough justification for increasing it
  wut, that's even more of a reason to increase it. means that we can afford the extra bandwidth
  since not that many are downloading the flashes.

  it's not like all flashes would be 20 MiB from then on also, plenty <5 MiB would still be posted.
  average swf size on any time on the board would probably be around 10 MiB.

  also 4chan serves flashes via CloudFlare so any bandwidth conserns are null and void to begin with

  >>3149807
  >What do you want to post that 10MB just isn't enough?
  there are so many, classic animations (newground co-op compilations) and porn animations (several
  great new ones by zone)

>> [_] Anonymous 09/17/16(Sat)19:45:06 No.

  I'll repeat the only three rules /f/ should have (on top of the Global rules):

  1. Don't upload anything that violates copyright.
  2. Don't upload redirectors or exploits (such as popup spawners).
  3. All other flash content is allowed, including loli/shota, furry and guro.

  + increase upload limit to 20 MiB (no it won't increase the number of youtube rips, only make
  them get better quality that would be uploaded anyway)

  I've been here 9 years now and have been trying to increse file size limit several years now. Had
  given up but all this talk about rule changes made me worried that maybe some new mod will be
  brought in that doesnt understand how /f/ works (that the rules should be ignored like they have
  always been). These three rules I believe will preserve and protect /f/ like it has been.
  Unfortunately I can't monitor this thread but in all honesty I've lost hope for change for the
  better by now so it probably doesn't matter anyway. I've tried at least.

  Please check out the previous thread before adding your 50 cents so that shit doesn't get
  repeated.

  I would word your 3rd rule less specifically - if you say explicitly that "loli is allowed", the

  >>3149961
  If you say "all else allowed" then loli that is posted will stay.

  If you say "all else allowed - this means loli" then loli not otherwise posted will be, since
  people who wouldn't have otherwise considered it will have it brought to mind. /b/-users, mostly.

  I'm not entirely convinced by the 20MB limit, i think it will encourage YT rips etc and I've
  never had a problem with it when posting. But it might be worth doing, or ideally trialling for a
  time and then deciding, if anyone cares that much about /f/.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/17/16(Sat)20:11:00 No.

  It's defiantly important to fix the captcha bug before increasing the limit so much, I don't know
  how long the timer is but I have a feeling it would be mostly pass users who could post at that
  upper limit.

  oh boy I can't wait to watch whole episodes of some weebshit animu in equally shit quality

  I mean c'mon what actual flashes are there that have 20 megs?
  how many anons can actually upload 20 megs under 2 minutes?

>> [_] Anonymous 09/17/16(Sat)20:17:29 No.

  >>3149967
  Eh.
  With a good connection you can upload 20mb in 10-20 seconds.
  You have to have pretty crummy upload speed to not be able to upload 20mb in under a minute let
  alone 2 min.
  But if it is easy to fix I would obviously support increasing the captcha reload time for users
  with poor net speed.

  >>3149970
  Tripcodes can be useful, for well-known content creators who come regularly. But I can definitley
  see the argument for banning them - /f/ or site-wide.
  48h cooldown would stop "daily post" memes hopefully. Probably a good thing, unless you argue
  it's /f/ meme culture or something?

>> [_] Anonymous 09/17/16(Sat)20:24:35 No.

  >>3149960
  The addition wouldn't really affect negatively the board experience, also not all loops are
  songs, so I'd vote yes for an [M] tag.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/17/16(Sat)20:28:39 No.

  Easier to read over there but anyway >>3149980

  >>3149983
  The argument against is basically:
  Youtuberips are lazy because anyone can make them, they're lazy and usually aren't very good.
  Even if they are the rips wear out their welcome very quickly.

  Similarly people would make posts with static/no images and a song, posting it here because it's
  easier than putting in the effort for a loop.

  Because [M] would be in the tags it would encourage this behavior, leading to an unnecessary
  decline in /f/ content.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/17/16(Sat)20:33:39 No.

  >>3149988
  I mean that we've been stuck in the 10mb limit, so most people will say that there is only
  youtuberips to be had by increasing the limit because they haven't been exposed to anything good
  that's over 10mb.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/17/16(Sat)20:44:09 No.

  Has anyone really been banned for something they posted on /f/?

  I have it in my head that /f/ is totally forgotten by the mods and just does its own thing in
  obscurity.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/17/16(Sat)20:47:08 No.

  >>3149983
  Negative is very possible, as several anons have argued.

  I'd add that it won't actually positively impact the board experience. Music is already posted,
  and the tag sustem is not really strictly followed or enforced - it's not like the lack of a [M]
  tag is a massive issue,

  With the current system, we have some music on /f/, which is nice, Adding an [M] tag, we'd likely
  have TOO much music on /f/, skewing the ratio too much away from other content I think. [M] would
  take over /f/ because it would be low-effort content.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/17/16(Sat)20:48:07 No.

  I've always thought tags were a joke and hardly ever tag anything correctly If I'm not using the
  tags for a joke with the subject line then I usually just use Other no matter what the flash is.
  People getting banned for 'mistagging' comes as a surprise to me.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/17/16(Sat)20:53:34 No.

  >>3150003
  No, that anon was banned because the mod thought is was Child Porn (CP) which is not allowed
  anywhere.

  Some anon said that he was banned for mistagging, but that was probably years ago when (if?) /f/
  had more moderation.

  Here's something I never understood about /f/.

  When looking at the list of all the flashes, some of the lines are colored like a light red,
  while most are either white or gray. Does the light red mean those are the flashes closest to
  expiring or something?

  So what did you guys think about the sorting option based upon column headers.

  Default on the main /f/ page is bump order.

  I want it to work as follows:
  Clicking on a header sorts by what it contains, clicking again does reverse.

  So clicking on the File header would sort in alphabetical order and then again would sort in
  reverse alphabetical.

  Blank headers default to bump and reverse-bump orders.

  I don't see any reason that it would encourage behavior in the way an [M] tag could.

  I dunno if I would wanna change my own method from last bumped.
  Though the ability to change the sorting so you could see the files by newest - oldest, by tag or
  by alphabet as you suggested would be a cool extra option though seemingly not an overly
  important or necessary one.
  Would just be a cool bell & whistle.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/17/16(Sat)21:53:24 No.

  >>3150046
  I mean it's not necessary for the other boards either, it's a different way of viewing the board.
  It takes advantage of the unique layout of /f/ to accomplish more than the other boards can do.

  Besides, something like size sorting can be useful for people with low Internet download speed.

  No.
  Video content is not bad and has always been allowed here.
  We have always had a balance between certain types of flash content from games to animations to
  video and its fine that way.
  Doesn't mean we don't get shitty poor quality rips but its better to ignore those then to try and
  completely change the foundations of the board.

  >>3150053
  Well sometimes it's nice to see discussion about them and for people to be aware of the history
  there. Usually it's discouraged by the posters and as stated before, it's difficult for people to
  spam /f/, so they could post all the flashes from the archive and then couldn't post anything
  else for a long time.

  >>3150052
  Well first off I think that's too strict. Also how can you verify that something is interactive
  with actionscript or has only vector without either having a 24/7 mod or some difficult to set up
  decompiler that checks each OP.

  The problem with youtuberips is that they are low effort to make one, so people make lots of them
  about something that isn't funny and looks bad. Not to say that they are all bad, but more
  youtuberips are bad than vector animations.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/18/16(Sun)00:40:59 No.

  I posted the whole mom spaghetti eminem le meme
  on 4chan years ago ripped from youtube because I thought it was funny and the audience on /f/ may
  have otherwise not seen it.The only reason its compressed to shit is the file limit,are you
  seriously going to say that increase in file size will result in a decrease in quality posts?I
  could fart in a mic and the file size would be only 5% of the 10mb limit.

  Anyways tl;dr shitposting has always been a thing you don't need a large filesize to shitpost.
