I redid the front page/top of board news to be pulled from threads, so all future site news will be posted here. Feel free to give feedback/responses , since only staff posts will be shown on the front page.

Morning everyone,
I've been thinking of hosting a "state of wapchan" stream on cytube, where I can talk about how the site's been doing and ideas for it's future more directly (playing games in the background), potentially on Sunday the 28th. Also, we have a new kindmin (original BO of 8/kind/ and kind.moe), who I hope will bring /kind/ to new heights. CSS changes are being made to some of the existing themes, and the OC gallery page is being worked on (viewable from the front page). Finally, all the old banners have been put back into rotation along with a few new ones.

I have started work on a smaller UI refresh, leaning closer to the interface of 4chanX. It's not done yet but I hope everyone likes the changes.

[Latest Posts] is gone, it was my most used link on top. Is it deliberate or can I look forward to its return?

It's back. I placed it with the other boards for now as opposed to the thread options, let me know if you'd prefer it the other way.

If you want opinions on the UI, personally I'm not a huge fan of the 4chanX UI with altchans. It works well enough on 4chan but only because of the sheer number of boards. I did quite like the yellow wapchan logo at the top left of the sidebar, I would like to see it back, and also I'm having some trouble with finding the different CSS themes with the new layout. For all the criticism I gave, I don't mind it actually it does work quite well

 No.1466

>>1460
my biggest qualm with the ui is that i can't seem to find an option to turn off the animated background on the wapchan/wapchan classic themes and i'm too lazy to make a userstyle to override it. it's really distracting when i'm trying to read, it should probably obey the browser/os-level settings for animations?

 No.1473

I agree with >>1466. It also feels needlessly browser intensive.

 No.1479

Hope you all have had a fun summer so far. Won't be back home for another couple weeks but I hope to work on site related projects, old and new, when I get back!

I'll try and push out a UI update tonight that addresses these comments (just been busy w/ little computer time)

finally back home!
made a few UI changes based on feedback.
now that i'm finally done with school and have a lot of time at home, i'm planning to remodel the site.
i don't know how you all feel about lynxchan, but it's been a mess to work with for many reasons - the simplest one being that the file structure is complicated and there's a million features we don't use. ideally i'd like to have something far more simple that suits us.
i'd like to move to a new engine, but not before extensive testing (so a situation like the vichan move dosen't happen again). i'm thinking maybe even a mixed forum/imageboard (part of the site working one way and using accounts and part of the site working the other way and not using accounts).
really though, at the end of the day, i'd like the site to feel more "personal". more steeped in the old net shrine/hobby culture and feel and less in chans and imageboards.
this will undoubtedly be a somewhat different site - but hopefully a more distinct and better one. let me know how you all feel about this. will start working on a test site.
(also new group watches and other events will start up soon)

EDIT: site will remain as is for the foreseeable future, due to the move potentially splitting the site's userbase

So it'll just become Wap?

 No.1484

>>1482
the forum idea sounds great! i agree with you that it needs to be a bit more personal and it would fit with a site with a small userbase like this.
will the name be changed? if it becomes less of an altchan the name wapchan won't make much sense

hi all,
i'd like to start the group watch streams again. fridays at 21:00 UTC work for everyone? i'll make a thread about it.
also: thinking about doing a touhou soku tournament. would any of you be interested in being part of that? let me know.

 No.1489

>>1488
That streaming schedule works for me. I'm also interested in the tournament. It will give me a reason to dust off my arcade stick.

 No.1490

>>1488
Should be a good time. Why Soku instead of Melty?

 No.1491

>>1490
i've never actually played any of the melty games (or tsukihime)...
but this will be the first of many a tournament. so i'll keep this in the backburner for a bit.
(i really haven't read a lot of VNs. got a steqm deck recently so i can finally catch up on the old backlog)

Welcome to the new wapchan.
Because we are running on vichan now, this site is fully compatible with 4chanX. I've even added custom styling for it, you just need to add the site to the userscript.

Looks good. It seems to work a lot smoother now. There are a few bugs and missing things. Radio and streams link doesn't work and the Tor site is down again. If you have time please add a dozen new features like a waterslide, a fortune telling board.

>If you have time please add a dozen new features
Here's the first!
A subset of emojis (471) get wordfiltered to SoftBank's 2001 series! 🚀 🎅 💽
I'll add a page for this soon listing all of them, but it's the vast majority of commonly used ones.
I'm working on custom emotes as well.

vichan just werks, and is easy as fuck to mod compared to any of the nodejs scripts

will vichan lainchan ever be good and not a massive cluster fuck under the hood?

Vichan's always looked like the best 4chan knockoff. The other scripts don't give a fuck about appearances.
