Is /f/ getting slower?
I know from reading some archived threads that around 2010 some threads at least would stay up
for a few days at a time, will it ever be like that again?
Marked for deletion (old).

Upon closer inspection I was mixing up the ended and checked time in the swfchan archive. False
alarm.

/f/ has always been a really slow board
but at least its not as slow as /i/ or /po/ threads on there can last over a month with barely
any replies

Well I browse /t/ sometimes too and quite a few threads last over half a year and a few are even
over the year mark.
I don't consider /f/ to be slow, I've never once seen a thread go to 24 hours.

Actually the average /f/ anon post lame shit like daily dose, chinese trumpet or Takeo Ischi;
it's obvious that a thread can't go over 24 hours.

our threads on /i/ last around 6 months, and they almost never hit bump limit.
/po/'s oldest 2 threads are 730 and 348 days old.
/i/'s are 990 and 796.
/f/ will never be as slow as /i/
>> [_] Anonymous 09/14/16(Wed)14:13:06 No.3148240
I find that /f/ moves at a constant pace, I can reliably come on every hour and see roughly half
the board is new(well as new as /f/ gets anyway) sometimes it being all different.

Huh, you always hear about /po/ being the slowest. It might just be the slowest in general.
While /t/'s two oldest threads are 1312 (not hit bump limit) and 978 (hit limit) days old, there
are always new threads made every couple of days and about half the threads have a reply within
the last 2 days.

and don't forget about the archives
how do archives actually work? how long are threads gonna stay there? is there a limit to how
many there can be?

Mods mark and delete threads before that happens usually

i dunno but i liked when threads stayed up 12 hours at least. i think /f/ has slowed down a bit
lately but it's still faster than before
>>3148203
just browse swfchan a bit

If it were against the rules, such as advertising or CP sure. Usually they are pruned because a
new thread is posted, which happens automatically.

the "4chan archives" are updated manually and stopped being updated when moot stopped caring
about flash (around 2008 or something). they are pretty much static.

Those are automatic, last for a week and seem to have no limit, take a look here at the number of
threads archived from /pol/ in the last week. http://boards.4chan.org/pol/archive

fuck! didn't expect /pol/ to have that many. more than /v/.
wonder how many /b/ have per 7 days.
>>3148274
/f/ is the only board that still have the old "marked for deletion (old)" system, we're very
special!

I knew that, does it have a name though? Thought it was called pruning or something.
/b/ doesn't have an archive because of the huge volume of posts, probably over 50 thousand.
>>3148279
Here I posted >>>/qa/669935 since Hiro was spotted in a thread recently there. Discuss /f/ with a
chance that he'll read it at least.

THE ENTIRE BOARD IS JUST "HEY LISTEN TO MY SONG WITH THIS REPEATING GIF" VERY FUCKING TIME

I mean yeah there's still gonna be .swf files allowed, but there's no point in making a GIF and
adding a song and converting it into a shitty 200x140 sized .swf file

Nah, you'd probably want to allow replys with said webm's as well, might as well turn /f/ into an
imageboard at that point.

no, there's posts on here which are just ceonverted youtube videos, that would honestly help with
making the videosat least viewable in something higher than 640x480 with massive amounts of
pixelization.

They have ten pages of threads; /f/ would be just as slow if we had as many possible threads as
every other board.

Really? Well put your webm's to the test by posting the whole tron movie into a webm. swf can do
anything a webm can do but better.

If you're complaining about the content of the flashes, then vie for stricter moderation of shit
content, not open up a way for even more garbage to flood the board.
