Event suggestion thread figamin ## Admin Apr 18 2022 (Mon) 5:11:32 No.381 [Reply]

This is a thread where you can suggest future event ideas, whether that be content for watch parties (/ar/, /a2k/ or other), game night ideas, or any other board event ideas you have. Also, if you want to host an event yourself related to the site, I can add it to the calendar if you post what it's about here.

Hello Wapchan, I come to you in my time of need. I'm old enough to have seen all the franchises I've loved get killed and corrupted, but i dont want to give this one up atleast not without resistence. Please help an old man out.

I probably wouldn't be useful when it comes to hacking, but i'm all ears for any social engineering ideas you got.

Why is the wapchan channel on a network that shares your IP?

I will do this tonight and fix a few other lingering issues (like the daylight savings for waptv)
There will be an update posted when I'm done.

Alright, thanks for doing this. I joined and it's empty, actually joining #ar even made me op which I'm sure you weren't intending. I'm sure you can fix that easily, though. I'll keep idling in case other people show up.

Now SSL support (would be nice)!

When we were setting our IRC, figuring out how to properly set InspIRCd was a huge pain, so we decided going with UnrealIRCd which was apparently a lot easier to properly set up, so you may want to check that one

Also you will probably want to set Anope on whatever IRC daemon you are using - which allows registering channels/hosts/usernames/simple moderation tools etc

I suggest you make a board for mechafags. That is all.

this isn't a bad idea on paper, but i just don't think there's enough actual interest for this to be warranted at the moment. maybe you can prove me wrong, just my two cents

anon Feb 28 2022 (Mon) 19:47:03 No.192

This site is already pretty slow, there's no reason not to discuss older mecha anime on /ar/ right now. Making a new board would probably just lead to two even deader boards.

anon Feb 28 2022 (Mon) 21:38:12 No.193

>>189
/m/ doesn't have an issue with older mecha not getting discussed the same way /a/ does with older anime not getting discussed, So there would be no one to populate it with.

Odd request (and I don't know if it'd be possible) but I always find that wapchat is empty, I've idled around there for a few days and only ever saw two people join (both of which left right after). Would there be a way to add how many people are currently in wapchat to the board somehow?

I imagine people may want to join if there's someone there to talk to, or even idle about in for discussion others might bring. Not sure how many users would want to stick around that place and prefer the slow nature of the boards, but I think if people are bored and want to talk to some other fellow users it might be a good idea to show how many are in chat.

Been busy recently so I haven't been on as much, the boards definitely been a bit slower recently. I'll work on your suggestion soon, it shouldn't be that hard to implement. This week I'll do the fireside chat (probably on tuesday) so we can hash out more ideas for the site as a whole.

Good to hear, never really used IRC before so I had no idea if it was possible, I just remember a forum I used to frequent years ago did that and you could even see the usernames of the people in the chat at the time.

>the boards definitely been a bit slower recently
I've felt that as well, I imagine the few users sticking around are probably waiting for more discussion than starting threads themselves, but just a guess. Will need to advertise more in certain places to certain people so they might want to jump here instead.

Greetings from 22Chan.org anon Feb 5 2022 (Sat) 21:37:41 No.173 [Reply]

Hello wapchan! It's nice to see a fellow like-minded imageboard out there and we thought it'd be nice to say hi and introduce ourselves.
The goal of 22 is to steer clear from the things that made 4chan cancerous which is why the userbase is relaxed and the site is comfy. We're not a nostalga board but it is an aspect of the community. We hope you guys have a nice day and that everything works out with your board.

As long as they dont mind us having a greetings thread on their board I don't see a problem, I just don't want our site associating with sites that cultivate /pol/-like content (which this one clearly dosent)

If you feel unfomfortable with us somehow feel free to talk it out on our /sg/ or atleast try to elaborate on how you reached these conclusions. all we wanted to do is be friendly and say hi and we're open to criticism

Could you please unban me, I wont spam id just like to make one thread dedicated to sweet Ran and in other threads I wont spam her.
I didnt make the thread to be annoying, I just love her very much and she belongs on a retro anime site.

Proposal for linking Wapchan with Heyuri! kaguya Feb 3 2022 (Thu) 3:46:09 No.135 [Reply]

Hello ranchan-san,

I am a moderator at heyuri.net, it's a BBS with a Futaba style imageboard, a 2channel style textboard, an oekaki board, a western Ayashii World copy, and cool users

At first glance it could seem like an interwebz nostalgia site, but it's more about having fun in the way we used to do in early 2000s, with some rulez to keep nu-4chan AIDS out.

I think it's fitting perfectly with this site, and linking two would benefit both sides!

I am happy you accepted! I made a links page and added Wapchan on Heyuri, you can find it linked on static pages: https://www.heyuri.net/index.php?p=links
UR turn nao, I see there already is a static "Links" page on Wapchan

>>140
That's exactly how I think too, net friendships aren't meant to be Serious Business. It won't be anything else than fun!

>>141
There is a Discord server, but it's only for post notifications - It's allowing a relatively small userbase to instantly get notified whenever someone makes a new post, and it's certainly not an "off-site chatroom" as one might think it is.

>>150
>I don't know if any of these services actually support forced anonymity
There are forced-anonymous IRCd softwares actually, but you would need to set the IRC server (and not just channel) to use them. Or you could create a channel on an existing IRC server of course, but I wouldn't really suggest it: that would attract trolls. If it's just "generating random nicks", there isn't anything preventing anyone from joining an ordinary IRC room with different nicknames each time.

I'm iffy on a merger, but having a sister site sounds like a lot of fun. I think we could have something real good building here.

there's no plans for a merger and likely never will be, don't worry. just two sites with somewhat similar cultures having a good time

One month of wapchan! figamin ## Admin Feb 1 2022 (Tue) 11:01:15 No.124 [Reply]

This site has been up for a month now, and despite some technical issues along the way, things for the most part have been pretty smooth on here. Some statistics
>60.23 gigabytes of total bandwidth used
>~423 unique IPs (only counted the most recent logs
>628 posts
>376 media files
>493.49 MB of total media stored
>18 peak listener count on WAP-FM
Some additional thoughts
>I'll be adding another board very soon, /br/ for topics not covered by /ar/ but that don't belong in /meta/ like old movies and tech. If specific topics get enough traction on there they may be spun off into separate boards.
>I do want to get some sort of chat service working, probably matrix or xmpp based since discord is presumably an unpopular option.
>If you've ever seen the site go down with a 502 error, that's me working on the backend in real time. I'm gonna setup a testing mirror of this site so that won't happen in the future
>Still looking into the weekly episodic stream idea
Almost forgot this
>I'll probably be looking for a few jannies to help clean up around here as the traffic increases. More info on that to come
I'd like to thank everyone who's contributed to making this place feel like a home for retro anime and manga fans in just the first month. We got valentine's day coming up, so make sure you and your retro waifus/husbandos are ready!

The idea for /br/ is to reduce the likelihood that new boards end up dead. If a retro /jp/ thread or threads gets enough traction on /br/ then it would be spun off into a whole board
