[_] A guide to /f/ for newfigs ^_^ Anonymous 04/30/16(Sat)19:58:54 No.3072389
Basics:
Bumps and sages don't work on /f/. There is only one page, and threads are deleted based on age,
though they move up to the top of the page when someone comments.
Please use tags correctly! Not much more to be said.
Sauce:
I know this is the most important thing to you guys! There are multiple ways to get this info, so
here are your options in the order you should try them.
Right-click or left-click: This works on very few flashes, but you're probably going to
accidentally click on it anyways. Might as well try.
Resize: If you make the window really thin and tall, you can see under the flash. Quite a few
flashes have the source underneath them. If you're not sure how to resize your browser, just
watch the first like 30 seconds of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3XntupxxtA
Swfchan or unofficial archives: Either of these will give you all previous threads with a certain
swf. 4plebs mirrors the 4chan layout, so that doesn't need explaining. On swfchan, you search for
the flash title, click on a flash, scroll down to "[Wiki page at swfchan.net]" and click on that.
Usually the source will be found in the first thread (at the bottom of the page), but if not you
can ctrl+f "youtube" "soundcloud" "sauce" etc.

http://archive.4plebs.org/f/
Google-fu: If a song has lyrics you can understand, chances are you can find it by googling those
lyrics. The title of a flash might also be the title of the audio or visuals!
Official Rules:
http://www.4chan.org/rules#f
Even though the mods don't know /f/ exists, there are some official rules. You can basically
ignore these and no one except the other anons will care! Everyone ignores the first rule anyway.
Flash archive:
http://www.4chan.org/flash
Full of oldies but goodies, this is a living relic of when flash was relevant. Most people forget
this exists or never find it at all.
Marked for deletion (old).

resizing for sauce.

Not quite true, I've come to personal knowledge that mods (or at least janitors) exist on /f/,
they just usually stay hidden and probably don't do that much compared to other boards.
But I give you that the rules are pratically worthless as /f/ has become /youtube lq/ because of
the lack of anyone here knowing how to produce actual swf content.
Also: Consider giving information on post file limit and flash repostability.

Because nobody gives enough of a fuck, also a stick would be shit on a site with only one page.

Do they really? I've never seen anyone get so much as banned here, so it's pretty difficult to
tell.
Also there are a few good loops still being made, at the very least. Not much else though, that's
for sure.

i know for a fact that poopthrow.swf gets deleted within an hour by mods, and when mook took
over, loli flashes were a bannable offense for about a month. a 24 hour ban i believe.
