Due to increased spam levels and a lack of moderation, /a/ and /requests/ have moved from Cyril's boards to two new locations:
/a/ is now http://sovietrussia.org/a/
/req/ is now http://iiichan.net/boards/req/wakaba.html
Questions, comments below.
I can possibly host bijin myself if I can get a walkthrough somewhere on moving/backing up (and enough time to register a domain name somewhere). If someone else wants to volunteer to host /bijin/, they need to be comfortable giving me FTP access to the server so that I can make changes to things like the rules under the submit box, etc.
I'd be happy to host Type-Moon and maybe Azumanga or any other boards nobody picks up.
Likewise, I'll host any leftover boards that nobody else can or wants to. I have plenty of space/bandwidth for it.
My e-mail is thelilyqueen (gmail) if anyone wants to host it and is willing to give me full access to it. It would really be better if a perl-savvy person is kind enough it; there's a code monkey in the house who could help me in a pinch if I wind up hosting it, but perl is not really his thing.
Bender and dmpk2k both offered to host /bijin/; sounds like Bender is going to do it and it should be back up in a day or two if we're lucky. Thanks!
Board should be up tomorrow night, if all goes well.
Thanks for the update, Lily Queen and Bender. I'm looking forward to Bijin's return.
Bijin is back! http://benderchan.net/bijin/wakaba.html is the link. If there are any issues with the board, and knowing my luck there will be, either post here, or e-mail me directly, BenderChan -at- gmail.com.
Got a captcha problem; working on it.
Captcha is working now.
Aria x what? I'm pretty sure that's a crossover. Either that or it's from an artbook.
Also, "it"'s a cat. Quite obviously a cat. It's actually stated in the anime that it's a cat.
> Quite obviously a cat.
Yes, that. It's not obviously a cat at all.
I say it's obviously a fat mutant!
I love this image. The artist has some other good ones in a similar vein. I'm actually kind of surprised such a gory image made the frontpage. I'm almost tempted to suggest an image from /blood/ now. ;P

An excellent choice.
It's a Laser! Pew Pew Pew!

Welcome to Bat Country.
Nice to see Yakui on the front page!
The idea came from (of all things) a misplaced post in /mugen/
I happen to have 3d custom girl and there are a lot of people who fancy it too.
Your thoughts?
create it and it can go under the 'experiment' heading in wakachan.org and remain there for all eternity, so long as you're okay with that
on an unrelated note, the higurashi board has been inaccessible for a month, i don't think it's coming back
What Higurashi popular enough to resurrect elsewhere?
Why not just make an eroge board? 3D Custom Girl will fall under it as well as any other eroge.
Very well.
Eroge board it shall be.
Dear Admins,
This is a reminder to treat heavy posters well. Please remember when enabling captchas to also put in exemptions for the heavy posters on your board. Not only does it encourage them to keep contributing the content that keeps the board alive, but it's a nice thing to do for people who often have more invested in the board than you do.
I'm bringing this up because it's come to my attention that Sling is having a hard time. All the boards hosted on wakachan.org have had Sling's -- as well as other heavy posters' -- tripcode in an exception to the captcha for years. Apparently I'm the only person doing this, which is not good.
For those of you who are not aware of tripccode exception, it allows posters with a specific tripcode to post without filling in the captcha field. I'll use Sling as an example for how to enable it:
Contact humble.fool@gmail.com to get listen on that wiki page, by the way.
Since for some reason I'm still not on the wiki page, even after several e-mails to anon, here's my contact info.
Board: Non-worksafe requests
e-mail: BenderChan@gmail.com
Shoot me an e-mail if you want other means of contacting me, so if /r/ is having a crisis or something it can be handled ASAP.
I'm totally clueless about this stuff these days.
I have e-mailed humble.fool as well, for the record, so somebody HAS contact info for bijin. :P

This is highly suspicious and very similar to your ihate<insertyourex-girlfriendsnamehere>.com and sounds like spam.
Even if this was just posted in B, would this be considered as undesirable content?
I ban people for posting that crud. They don't offer anything whatsoever, bump relevant and interesting posts off the board, and also it's generally far too easy to acquire the IP address of the person who posted the link.
Crap like that makes an imageboard look like a ghetto.
True, true.
Well then, deleting and banning posters of that junk...
Please, enable captcha in /b/ as soon as you can.
Vandalism, flood, board is cleared every day.
Thank you, dmpk2k. New board is good.
Please make the field "Password", because with the default password I can delete any post.
Please leave it as it is at least for now. I bet cancer aint aware of this feature yet and a very handful of anons could keep the board in purity in worst case scenario.
>>19
LOL WUT
worst case scenario = deletion of all posts.
Oh my God, what have you done!
Give password field back or else we are in serious trouble.
>>18
Hopefully fixed. It shouldn't be possible to delete future posts other than your own.
>>21
A random password is generated for you and saved in a cookie when you post. So long as you're on the same machine you should be able to delete. If you lose that cookie, you can't. Other people cannot either.
>>22
No, just deleted other person's post.
Also can you please set time to GMT+3 (+11h from the current time)?
They'll probably have to clear all their wakachan.org cookies and refresh before posting. Old posts and old cookies will remain affected.
Please check if the date is now more to your liking. It should be based on Moscow.
Okay, old posts are not affected, and cookies should fix themselves once posters refresh the page.
wakachan's link to the NWS request board returns a 404. iichan's nws request board now points to - http://benderchan.net/wakaba/wakaba.html
Also I noticed that the new /negi/ board is on wakachan but not on iichan.
btw What is the relationship between iichan and wakachan?
Fixed.
IIchan is really a bunch of loosely-connected boards. Some are hosted on wakachan.org, some on iichan.net, and many elsewhere. Wakachan.org and iichan.net both provide links to all these boards, so if one goes down, the other is still there.
I like to think of us as a collection of affiliated boards, though affiliation has a connotation that some find distasteful.

Is there a particular reason we don't have the ability to use names in the Niche Fetish Boards? Also, why can't we delete posts?
>>1 Technical reasons.
>>1
Because naturally anyone rule breaking could delete stuff, and the admin needs physical proof of what the person has posted if its illegal in all.
>>3
So have move files to a 'deleted' directory instead of removing them from disk when they're deleted.
>>3 You have no idea what you're talking about.
Niche Fetish uses a modified wakaba script, and the way that deletion works means I had to disable it to allow for posting forms on each thread.
It's forced anon because I want it to be. Why exactly do you want to post with a name, anyway?
It's a relatively small community, far as I can tell, and I think it would be nice to be known by a name rather than a randomized tripcode
ok, it looks like we need a new thread of tentacle in the "adult seccion" could the admin. open this new thread?? i love tentacle so much xD please make my wishes come true hahaha!!
LOL! xD but why!
What he meant: host an imageboard just for tentacles.
I'd host a tentacle board, if anon thinks there's enough interest in one.
Apparently it's really easy to set up another board when I've already got one hosted. If OP still wants the board, here it is. Go nuts.
Is it really necessary when there's always the original at http://nijiura2.merseine.nu/creature/index.htm ?
Yes, because it isn't an iichan board. That's like asking if it's necessary to make any board if there's already one created on another site.
