>>12009195>Again, this is a science board not a fucking circus for those who want the dopamine obtained by trolling constantly. If you get too bored with actual science, then guess what? Maybe it's just not your board.Ah right, a redditor newfriend who has no idea how 4chan actually works and probably came here in 2016. Well I'm not going to really judge you because I was like this once as well. I'm just going to tell you what's exactly going to happen and you can either accept that or waste energy in futile attempts trying to prevent it: this board will keep repeating the exact same shitposting mantras that it has for the past 10 years. 0.999..., popsci ecelebs, religion, qualia, IQ, races and so on. Nothing you ever do will stop people from posting it. PhDs will get bored and they themselves will come post it. Why? Because that's the point of 4chan. It's a background noise of shit and piss which attracts people with its laid back accessibility, and from the increased quantity of people and their post activity, you get a rare fluctuation of a quality one materializing once in a while. The more posts you have, the more and higher quality posts will appear among them. Even the Haruhi problem is a product of this exact dynamic, as 2011 was probably peak unmoderated shitposting and homework spam.
You will never order a board in a state of full quality, of half quality, or even a tenth of quality. You do not understand the metabolic cost of maintaining that level of order. It would follow the fate of the putnam threads: from the 15 regulars, you'd go to 10 because there's zero memes and culture that's reeling in new posters, then 5, then 2, and finally the guy just goes to page 10 alone. The same thing happened to the whole board in the dark age of the inane trolling garbage mod. The metabolic cost of maintaining the order but also propping up the cultural banner to be funny and inviting was so high that no one actually met it, and the system began decaying.
