There are too many, indeed. I'd love to see more niche boards, but everyone's trying to be hueg and popular by copycatting all the other sites trying to be hueg and popular, and it's made a ton of fail on the internets.

Some originality would be nice, but good luck in finding it.

I kinda miss the days when chans were rarer and you had to find out about them from people who used them. They seemed more valuable when people weren't vomiting them out all over the place.

As I have said many a time, there is not more room in the market for all encompassing imageboards. I believe that specialty and splinter imageboards are the only ones that have any hope.

Case in point is my operatorchan.org site.

It would have not succeeded if it was not a niche imageboard. I don't add any boards that don't directly relate to the niche my site is in. I also won't add boards that won't get almost any traffic unless there is good reason to. Most imageboards sites fail this way.

Well, that depends on your definition of success, (and yes, I do consider it a, minor, at least, success)
Some people just want to 'own' a shitty little imageboard (OMG I AM JUST LIEK MOOTYKINS <3<3<3 DESUDESU)

I can see how video games is even remotely related to guns. Fuck you, serv. There is already a /k/, /fit/ and a /vg/. Your site is NOT NECCESSARY.

I'd like to see an imageboard succeed purely on a userbase that is not derived from the 4chan/Japanese culture crowd.

operatorchan is just another 7chan with guns

If it was me and I wanted to make an operator website, it would just be a front page with a link to kareha textboard w/images with like 15-20 pages.

isn't that what 5chan was? IIRC it was pretty shitty. it sort-of succeeded until 4chan died in 2004 and zabadab pissed off the refugees from 4chan who invaded his shitty porn-only imageboard site and started a big internet pissing contest, which eventually led to the end of 5chan.

I don't really know about 5chan, but a quick google search, and I got this:

>5chan was an offshoot of 4chan created in January 2004 by a former user of 4chan who had an argument with mootykins. It was unlike most normal chan imageboards in that it did not use the futaba image board software, and as a result suffered from frequent site crashes and slow load times. It attempted to cater to many kinds of sexual fetishes by having a stupendous amount of different boards, most notably, a furry board, which no other *chan at the time had catered to, but ultimately ended up failing

If Encyclopedia Dramatica is to be trusted on the subject of 5chan, then I suppose it doesn't fit the bill.

Come now, this isn't 4chan, let us not discriminate blindly because it is a meme to do so.

I've never seen an encyclopedia dramatica article worth reading. It's basically just 4chanpedia, with the same people posting shit.

Do you deny that 5chan was created on a January of 2004 by a former user of 4chan? That it did not use futaba software? That it had a copious amount of boards? That it had a furry board?

Hi, anyone can point me to any tutorial as of how to make something like this page but with the option of uploading an image, its for a guild and will mainly be used by guild leaders, no intention to make a big imgboard.

Install kareha and enable the relevant options for posting images.

Nice to see Anon can do nothing but bicker over the same shit again and again - would somebody answer the damn OPs question nobody cares about your failure of a *chan or the size of your e-peen, faggots.

Nobody cares about OP (you?) either. To anyone with any programming experience it would be highly obvious and trivial to write an imageboard.

And to use an existing script you don't even need it.

If you can't use FTP and install a copy of Kusaba then you don't have the right to own an imageboard..

> Kusaba
If you think Kusaba is some sort of high-water mark you shouldn't be talking.

I really want to make my own as well. It'd be nice to have somewhere to go where there is NO censorship, whatsoever.
