Is there no way to hide posts?

A post filter that automatically hides posts that contain certain phrases would also be nice.

Why do you need to hide posts? Just ignore them lol.

Banners figamin ## sysop 11/12/24 (Tue) 15:02:37 No.1562 [Reply]

We need new banners now that the site activity is picking up!

Especially board specific ones, since we have a bunch of general/sitewide ones me and the old anons made already.
Banners should be either 300x100 (3:1) or 300x225 (4:3). I've provided template files.

The font is Arial Black, size 28, with a two pixel border around most of the text, which was then smoothed out into a more consistent backdrop. I just upscaled it from there with no interpolation (make sure to use integer upscales to avoid mixels). Yellow color is #fffe00 (very bright).
I've included a 1:1 pixel version of the logo, along with two dropshadow variations. Feel free to make your own logo if you're up to it, or even use the old "adult swim" style logo if you really want a throwback.
Excellent choices by the way

Thanks, although I was just wondering for the banners themselves but all this info will be useful if I plan to do anymore. Choose whichever looks best I guess. For /media/ I did two versions one with the board in caps and the other without, gave it the same colour as a VCR had and a slight glow along with similar font. The other is just a general wapchan banner with no board attached.

Will post /vnt/ next.

I thought I'd try to make the banner a gif but it doesn't loop that well but I'll add it just in case, I made sure /vnt/ was the same font as Wapchan and chose the colour of a motherboard since I felt that fit (#034332) and before I forget the VCR colour for /media/ was #51E9EA and the font was modenine in case they're needed.

If the gif doesn't cut it, I've also added a normal one without and if anyone would want to try their hand at an improved gif I've also webm'd the scene from the anime.

Relative times are shown when hovering over the date now. Made that change out of the blue so I don't know how people feel about it. What toggle are you talking about?

There's an option for it in the Settings. It seems to be bugged too, if I visit the site from a clear browser, on first visit both local time and relative time are off, but if I press refresh they get toggled on, and the dates on the posts change.

anon 7/6/24 (Sat) 22:18:38 No.1457

>>1443
Revert that change and instead change the default value of the javascript toggle if you want the default behavior to be not showing relative time. This way people can enable it if they want to. Alternatively just fix the toggle to adapt to the changes you made, but it's kinda spaghetti that way.
I would suggest you always check for other toggles and options before making changes unless you want to break them by hardcoding in something else.

Off-topic, but I miss not having to click the plus every time I want to change board. I don't see why a mod button or index/catalog buttons take priority over seeing the different boards. Having them visible by defualt makes people more aware they exist in the first place. If you want easier access to index/catalog it could always be together with the top/bottom links anyways.

If I hover over a filename in a post that has only one picture attached, the whole filename is revealed. But doing the same on a post with multiple files does not work. I hope these two files have long enough names to illustrate the issue.

TF2 Server - suggestions! figamin ## sysop 4/4/24 (Thu) 22:42:39 No.1296 [Reply]

Finally getting around to setting up something I floated a while ago - a TF2 server! See >>840 (thanks to >>1283 for reminding me)
I ran sourcemod servers on here for a while, but those are niche in of themselves, so this time we're doing one server on the main game. This server is for suggestions, including
>maps
>sourcemod plugins
>server features
>anything, really
I'll get it up and running in the next few days or maybe sooner. Just gotta copy over some configs.

>maps
More maps can be added later right? so maybe keeping it simple is fine. A list of the "greatest hits" from the official valve maps is a start, and I think it would be funny if there were also some absolutely cursed maps. If making our own maps is an option, now or in the future, maybe a special map themed after wapchan or /lum/. Maps with gimicks like having more verticality, or lower/zero gravity, or other stuff like that could be fun too.
>server features
Second >>1297 no random crits but also not on melee either. A repeating message of the day to visit wapchan.org, or maybe a url pointing at a cyclic "tf2 general" thread, might be a good way to draw in more users. Map voting would be cool.

The Age-Old Question - How do we get more interaction and a sense of community on wapchan? anon 7/2/24 (Tue) 10:11:48 No.1449 [Reply]

I really do love this website and the whole idea of it. I've been lurking for a long time here, about a few weeks after the site was launched and have scarcely posted here and there.
I just feel there's not much of a community or even a culture with wapchan, maybe except for /kind/.
I like the idea of the montly anime watch and video game, but it's clearly not working or driving much engagement.
How do we fix this?

>giving up your hiiki ways
I haven't seen it but that's more of the type of thing I have an issue with. There is nothing wrong with being a hikikomori, but it's the wallowing in and spreading misery over either being a hikikomori or a wagie or whatever that overtook a lot of communities, and hobbyist communities end up being overtaken by people forced into them instead of joining through interest. I use wizchan as an example, take /jp/ and every other post ends up being about how Japan is shit, how anime sucks, how anime "was a mistake" and such. I am wary of a place driven by a non-thematic board.

anon 7/17/24 (Wed) 12:20:55 No.1469

>>1468
It's wrong to bash people for being hikkis or "wagies", but at the same time it's really offputting to see someone make their personality about being a hikki neet and bragging about it, MANY imageboards are filled with those types and I don't think it's any different from the /pol/ types in terms of toxicity and sociopathy

>wizchan
>non-thematic board
wizchan's whole thing is about being 30+ yo virgins, what did anyone expect could come from such a place?
You can be a hikki neet and be fine personality wise and slowly but surely turn your life around, but as soon as you embrace it and make it a part of you, you're fucked. Nobody with any empathy should encourage hikkis to be hikkis, especially if you have any personal experience as one.

(it's like being obese or any kind of addict, it's wrong to bully someone for being addicted to food or drugs but at the same time you know it's wrong and unhealthy, the last thing anyone should do is encourage it, at most don't talk about it and let that person work on it on their own. I just wouldn't talk to or like being in any setting with such a person if they embraced being obese as a good thing, or a smoker as a cool thing and so on.

I'm the guy who made a positive post on /kind/ and felt it almost led to a collapse of the board. I've also been mostly a hikki and NEET for the past 12 years and hopefully for good now. But if a community is created around an interest, it's irrelevant if each user is an optimistic satisfied hikki or a depressive suicidal mentally-ill normalfag, or racist or a /pol/ user, that's not what will drive the discussion or what will be talked about.

I can take part in a forum about baking with professional bakers, or a language forum with translators and researchers, without being a professional or working in the area (or at all), just by being interested and taking part on those activities.

A hobby is something people are supposed to look forward to and be in expectancy of, for an Internet imageboard community to work it must be grown by people who think the Internet is good and like imageboards, and think that the community is something important and relevant to their lives, and that it should be cherished and cared about.

Technical explanation: The SauceNAO link is generated by a piece of javascript I wrote (you can view it at https://wapchan.org/.static/js/sauce.js ). It only runs once per page because otherwise I would have to make it a loop and that would tax people's systems unnecessarily if there wasn't anything new.

How about something like this? Admittedly it is a bit hacky, but I added it to my user JS in the settings, and it seems to work. Of course if you can change static/js/posting.js, you don't actually need the hacky part, you could just change it there.


function addSauceNao(post) {
    const files = post.getElementsByClassName("uploadDetails");
    for (let i = 0; i [orange] files.length; i++) {
        if (files[i].getElementsByClassName("sauceNaoLink").length != 0)
            return post

        let sauceLink = document.createElement('a');
        sauceLink.innerHTML = " SauceNAO"
        sauceLink.href = "https://saucenao.com/search.php?url=" + files[i].getElementsByClassName('originalNameLink')[0]
        sauceLink.target="_blank"
        sauceLink.className="sauceNaoLink"
        files[i].appendChild(sauceLink)
    }
}

// Add links for the whole thread.
addSauceNao(document)

// Add links for the new posts.
const oldPost = posting.addPost
posting.addPost = function(post, boardUri, threadId, noExtra, preview) {
    let result = oldPost(post, boardUri, threadId, noExtra, preview)
    addSauceNao(result)
    return result
}

There is a page but it's not linked anywhere I think. I haven't edited it at all so it's the default lynxchan page. I should actually write one myself with the same information and link it on the front page.
Also, I just realized the code tags had to be manually enabled per board so I fixed that for all the boards on here where I'm the BO.
