No.2087 [Last50 Posts]
Since /abdl/ was brought back online /dpr/ has been slowing down and it looks like that trend will continue so long as /dpr/'s current state continues. If /dpr/ was only ever meant to be a temporary alternative to /abdl/ then fair enough but it seems like a waste to have this board quietly die just because the status quo is back. I can only speak for myself, but I don't think well of /abdl/. Is the current board operator even the same person as the last or just whoever first claimed the board? Either way, I didn't think well of the previous operator who was more than willing to let assholes derail any given thread and then bitch in the thread himself when people had the gall to report posts because they'd rather not have the virtual environment covered in virtual trash.
And it seems there's been a little bit of a turf war in the past few days. I've seen posts on here, /abdl/, and 4ch's /aco/ by users making posts targeted at this board, usually whining over having a few rules that, again, are seemingly just trying to maintain a bare minimum standard of quality. People want "freedom", the freedom to post shit, argue for the sake of arguing, and make the board worse for everyone else. Anything goes because more content and more freedom is always better, right? Maybe not.
/dpr/ has been promising if for no other reason than the admin showing he's willing to revise and enforce lenient rules meant to maintain something as basic as a common sense standard for the quality of content and discussion. That's great, but it's only part of making a successful community. The other parts lie in being communicative and tailoring the infrastructure of the board to the users.

The truth is /abdl/ was only ever moderately successful because it was the first,. People used it because other people used it. There was nothing better because no one really put any effort into trying to make anything better. It's understandable, the know-how of how to manage an image board is not common knowledge. But really, how hard is it to foster a small healthy community of sociable and savvy users? The point is simply that if we were to put in even the smallest amount of effort and showed even the smallest amount of consideration to our fellow anons we'd still be miles ahead of anywhere else.
I'm not saying this board should try to fight and overtake /abdl/. 8ch and the internet in general don't need 2 image boards for "everything related to diaper fetishism and infantilism". A board for everything is a board for everyone which is misguided because "everyone" is never going to get along with everyone else. Can we at least filer out the autists, faggots, assholes and schizos? If /abdl/ wants to be the big shitty board where anything goes they can more than have that title, no one should want to fight them over it. But maybe we could be the tiny, quality board with an active and savvy stable of users.
With that goal in mind, I have a few suggestions for /dpr/. I HIGHLY encourage the whole board to submit their own ideas and feedback. The admin has been fairly responsive to them so far. But for myself I think there's a few things that could change /dpr/ for the better practically overnight:

#1. Focus on condensing users into fewer, more active threads. This means reduce the number of board pages and bump limit for threads so people don't have a gigantic catalog of inactive threads to scrawl through and so people aren't replying to posts made 6 months ago in the threads that are still up. This might sound unintuitive, bigger has to be better, right? But it's important to remember the advantage of scaleability is also making things smaller when it'd be better to do so, not just bigger. It's hard to put a number on this but I think 5 pages max and a bump limit of 100 posts would be just about right. This board is niche and slow so it'd be better to tailor the settings to fit that. Instead of hundreds of inactive threads it's better to have a dozen or so active ones. It's an issue of negative and positive feedback loops. People are more likely to post in active threads, less likely to post inactive ones. Active threads become more active, inactive threads become more inactive. Keep in mind "active" doesn't mean a busy chatroom, it just means a few posts a day while we're starting out. If we can foster a board of active threads more people will post in those threads, making them even more active, and leading to even more posters. In time, the board can be scaled up to what it is now but it should grow to that point organically. This is such a common mistake for people that make websites and image boards and subreddits and discord servers and so on, it's a shame seeing the same mistake made again.
#2. Require OPs to make appreciable contributions to a topic when starting a thread. Take a page from the red boards on 4ch (/d/, /h/, /e/, etc), if an OP starts a thread with fewer than 5 images it's considered a request thread and deleted. There are dozens of threads on this board right now about very niche topics that either have no or very few replies because the OP himself didn't even contribute to his own thread. In the same way users who post in threads are expected to contribute to them, users who make threads should likewise be contributing to the board. With that in mind…
#3. Similarly to dialing back the number of pages and bump limit, allow users to only post one image at a time. Again, sounds unintuitive, but short post timers, 24hr captchas and large image limits on 8ch allow people to dump all the content a thread could possibly have in only a few minutes, removing the need for anyone else to contribute. For example, I could make a thread about "locking diapers". It's somewhat common but specific enough that there's not even 50 good images of it. The thread could be filled in under 5 minutes posting 5 images a post. Again, everyone should contribute to a thread in their own way, and they wont if there's simply no way they can because someone else has already done it for them.

#4. Remove threads if the topic is too specific (while the board is still so small). It's hard to qualify what makes something "specific" but generally threads should have inclusive topics rather than exclusive ones. A thread for "maids wearing diapers" excludes anything that's not maids but a thread for "work uniforms and diapers" includes maids but also includes things like nurses, military, OL, etc. The more general a thread is the more everyone can participate, the more active the thread becomes, the more active the board becomes, the more it will ideally grow while maintaining a good quality.
#5. Promote user savvy through community made stickies. This is something that /dpr/ can work on together which could give us a big boost to posts per hour if we're all putting together a little project.. Maybe there could be a community maintained list of Eastern and Western artist accounts, their twitters, pixivs, deviantarts, tumblrs, patreons and so on. Maybe it could be sorted by relative quality of their content and also what sort of content they make (girls in diapers, males, furry etc) Many boards have stickies that help prime users on what they should know but the idea of "things a person should know" often seems like a foreign concept in this fetish and expecting people to know basic things is considered elitism. Hopefully we can change that.
#6. Finally, I'd just like to encourage the admin to communicate more and use his own board more. We're small, the admin posting isn't going to derail a thread like moot or hiro posting on 4ch would. As it stands only ever adding new rules and deleting/spoilering people's posts is exclusively communicating in an impersonal and negative way. In moot's fairwell q&a he did before he resigned from 4chan, he expressed his single largest failing as an administrator was a failure to communicate, both with his users and his staff. If you're at all interested in learning from the experiences of the person that administrated the largest image board in the west, I highly recommend listening to it. Yes it's long, yes it's well worth it (it's great background noise if nothing else)

First off, thank you. It's nice to see that my work here is appreciated.
>I'm not saying this board should try to fight and overtake /abdl/. 8ch and the internet in general don't need 2 image boards for "everything related to diaper fetishism and infantilism". A board for everything is a board for everyone which is misguided because "everyone" is never going to get along with everyone else.

But maybe we could be the tiny, quality board with an active and savvy stable of users.
Yes, this is what my intent was when I first made /dpr/. I temporarily relaxed the rules for a period because the people who were filtered by them spammed 8kun with new boards and generally were making things chaotic for everyone, but now that /abdl/ is back, they can stay there with their kind while this board focuses on being an ABDL community with standards.
>#1.
I wasn't sure about this at first, but after giving it some thought, I've warmed up to the idea. If it ends up being restrictive, I could increase those limits again, but there's no harm in condensing things for now.
>#2.
Definitely a good idea, especially after implementing #1.
>#3.
Although 5 images per post is definitely useful when imagedumping things like doujins, I suppose limiting it to one image could be beneficial for general image threads.
>#4.
Encouraging less specific threads is good, I think, but I'll hold off on outright deleting niche threads at the moment, as people expressing interest in niches might lead to them contributing rarely seen niche content. It's probably best to let the threads themselves speak for how much content and demand there is for the niches.
>#5.
This sounds like a good idea as well. If somebody makes a guide like this, I'll be happy to sticky it.
>#6.
Thank you for the advice. I've mostly been staying quiet and listening to suggestions given through the report system since most of the criticism the board has gotten so far seems to have come from a handful of frankly unstable individuals who were never interested in levelheaded discussion, but I'll be happy to communicate with those who understand and appreciate the purpose of /dpr/.

Don't really understand what gimping people's ability to post images would accomplish.
It would make image dumps much more obnoxious to do and to scroll through. That much is certain, and I can't see that as anything but a negative.
And I just don't see it preventing the 'one guy posts all the relevant content and no one else has anything to contribute' scenario you describe.
None of these diaper fetish boards in any location at any point in time have ever moved anywhere near fast enough that making an image dump take five times as long to do would do much of anything to allow more people to participate.
I can only see this suggestion driving people away.

Yes it does make image dumping more inconvenient but even posting one image at a time dumping here on 8ch is still comparatively a breeze because of low post timers and a 24 hour captcha. I can't really agree with it making image dumps more difficult to browse though. I've been using tampermonkey scripts for years that simply let you press a key and click through the images in a thread. As far as I know that is the most efficient way to browse images in a thread and whether it's 1 per post or 5 makes no difference. If you're not using one yourself you really should! They're very handy
>And I just don't see it preventing the 'one guy posts all the relevant content and no one else has anything to contribute' scenario you describe.
It's never going to totally prevent it, nothing possibly could short of limiting how many images any one user can post in a thread. But it does require, especially in conjunction with the other suggestions, a more engaged user willing to commit a higher amount of time to do so, and I consider that to be a positive. That's really the point of most of my suggestions.
>None of these diaper fetish boards in any location at any point in time have ever moved anywhere near fast enough that making an image dump take five times as long to do would do much of anything to allow more people to participate.
I am really not sure what you mean by this. It's exactly because the diaper boards are slow that I think this would be beneficial. A thread of a certain topic can be quickly filled up with all of the content that even exists of that topic by one person and then sit on the board for months with no one having any reason to contribute.
>I can only see this suggestion driving people away.
Do people choose the boards they use based on how many images they can dump at once? I'd like to think they choose boards based off the quality of discussion.

If this thread is going to have a productive discourse beyond contrary posts to my own there's two questions to answer here
> what sort of board should /dpr/ be?
> what rule/features/etc would be most conducive to that?
If the answer to the first amounts to "a redundant /abdl/" then there is simply nothing anybody can do.

This isn't necessarily a hard idea about what we should do with one board or the other, more of a concept of how we get to figuring out what we want in general. (I do have an idea at the bottom that I think would be great to have in either or both boards)
I think that the key with any kind of community based board like /abdl/ or /dpr/ is to make it reflect the overall desires of the community. I feel like there are two things that need to happen to accomplish this.
1) users need to have a say in what rules are enforced, what guidelines are followed, etc. The community needs to decide what they want to have, and then the entities providing the service to the community have to defer to the communities decisions.
2) The community has to *believe* that their desires/wishes/decisions are being implemented according to their overall wishes.
For example, lets say that people are getting their feathers ruffled over whether or not images containing X should be spoilered or not. To resolve something like this, the controlling entity (in this case, the BO) might have a thread or straw pole or whatever to see how the majority of users want to handle images containing X. However it is done though, it must avoid a scenario where a certain party feels like they were cheated/manipulated/censored/etc. That means that, within the discussion/voting/etc system, there cannot be censorship of any kind. It has to be totally open and transparent. Otherwise, the side that didn't like the final decision wont be able to respect that decision, and the end result is that you have just as much tension as you did before you resolved the issue (if not more), but for different reasons.
I hear people occasionally accuse this boards BO of things, and I have heard the BO of /abdl/ accused of things as well (both relating to 'being a faggot who is enforcing rules of their choice, not listening to the community, making rules that are too strict, making rules that are too relaxed, etc'. I don't really pay attention to the specifics honestly) and I think the only way to resolve that kind of tension within the community is to have open communications.
>> actual hard, concrete idea for this board (and/or abdl as well)
Have a sticky thread for explaining why a given thread was deleted. So any time a thread gets deleted, this sticky thread gets updated with a screenshot of that threads OP or something, plus a short description of why it was deleted. This way people will be less butthurt if/when their thread gets axed because now they know *why* it was deleted. Since everybody can see this thread, if deleting the thread was justified, the OP cant whine without looking like a dumbass. If deleting the thread wasn't justified, the BO looks like an ass in front of the rest of the community. If no explanation is provided for why a thread is deleted, it is assumed the BO is trying to hide something. Perfect* system of checks and balance.
*not at all perfect, I have already imagined at least one scenario that breaks this system, but I think it would be an improvement for sure.

Only thing that can ensure the board's survival is to make it appealing to a wider audience by eliminating some topics which are turn offs for many users.
1 - Ban loli or anything hinting at under-aged content.
2 - Make the board more appealing to people still new to ABDL by eliminating scat and piss content.
3 - Lower your profile presented to 4ch, /ABDL/ and /aco/, so the trolls focus on /ABDL/ instead.

1. There's plenty of material to post, though, /d/ users just aren't obsessed with constantly making posts and spamming their way through threads like /aco/fags do. It's part of what makes them better than /aco/.
2. You sure sound familiar with that place. Funnily enough, /abdl/ seems to have a similar level of discussion despite being free of censorship.
3. Last time I checked, /aco/ tends to have more posts without images than with them, generally due to constant drama. They have lots of discussion, it's just that the quality isn't very high, as expected of /aco/.
4. Pretty sure those forums are hugboxes that encourage and produce the worst autism of this fetish, leaking out onto imageboards and starting drama when told to fuck off with their autism.

> it just seemed very tiresome to even try to put effort into this place if the rules were going to be changing every week or so
The BO is not Moses, he was never going to come down from the mountain with 10 commandments that would be the timeless laws of the land. The board was/is still young, it should be common sense there'd be some growing pains. If you want to help build a better board you should understand there'll be revisions and iterations in that process.
I'm curious how the rules changing somehow hurt the efforts you were putting in? Were you one of the people posting whatever low quality content you had on hand like it was doing the board any favors?
>I think scat or any sort of messing where you can actually see the shit leaking out should be force spoilered but thats really it.
Everyone is going to find different things off putting. For myself, well drawn scat is much less offensive than toons. Styles can be more off putting than subject matter. Does that mean that we should spoiler everything? Or nothing? From what I'm reading, it should be based in what the majority says so but that's moronic because a majority cannot be determined from an anonymous front end. Anything that appears to be a majority can just as well be a vocal minority. "everyone agreed on what I said" shows nothing short of obliviousness to that fact. Who the fuck is "everyone"?
No, ad populum is not something that has ever been a part of image board culture. That is pure reddit thinking. The question remains, what are the principles of /dpr/ and how do we foster users that share those principles? What is /dpr/'s unique value in the greater constellation of diaper fetish forums? "What the mob prefers" is not a principle and, if it were, it'd be subject to change at any time because who is and is not a part of the majority changes with the seasons. We are all a part of a minority in one way or another. These are all basic flaws of democratic thinking, you are either willfully ignoring them or are simply ignorant of them.

Are you proud of being the lowest common denominator? I don't know what to say other than if you pasted what you wrote into any board on 4chan you'd be laughed out of the thread as a tryhard newfag. Try using boards besides /pol/, /v/ and /b/ sometime. Chans have never been about being everything to everyone, they have always been niche, a niche is necessarily exclusionary.
The truth is that everything that was said prior to the schism with /d/ was vindicated. "If western art was segregated then the shit flinging would be too". It was. /d/'s threads aren't the fastest but, again, this isn't about having the most users or fastest threads. There's so much puerile posturing in this thread: "my board'/thread is faster than yours neener neener". Why do you think I care? Why do you? What value does IP count or PPH have if it's nothing but redundant noise?
You can say that's because there's "nothing to post" but /aco/ isn't any different. /d/ has nothing to post, /aco/ just posts a lot of nothing. It's all reposts everyone has already seen, there's little actual discussion, just banalities like "we need more X wearing diapers" echoing off the walls and of course the ever present drama, blogging, RPing, etc. Sure they have more new """content""" to post but of what value? Not much. /aco/ is of no value to anyone other then people who don't realize how bad their taste is or how little they have to say and enjoy being among their own.

1 - Banning under-aged content means removing cartoons of what are clearly kids in erotic and sexual contexts, or otherwise displayed nude or in fetish regalia on the same page as clearly and explicitly sexual content.
3 - That is a good step. You can also focus on brand identity, by disassociating this board's content from the content of other boards on the platform, which if it were associated with /dpr/, would make suggestion 1 largely pointless.
4 - Use your control over what is at the top to publish original or community generated content your demographic values.

1. They're fictional drawings, not to mention that it's clear from this thread alone that those who have an issue with the current rules are raring to make fraudulent complaints (that said, I haven't seen a single report regarding loli despite their supposed issues with it…) for the sake of causing drama. An advantage this board has over /d/ is that there's no need to worry about getting (potentially falsely) banned for posting loli.
3. I don't think there's any real need to actively disassociate /dpr/ from 8chan. At its core, this is a board for diaperfags who are well-versed with 4chan (those who actually use it for things other than diaper threads, that is). While it has standards, it's certainly not a place for moralizing.
4. This sounds like an interesting idea. While I'm not sure exactly how to implement it at the moment, I'll keep it in mind.

>(that said, I haven't seen a single report regarding loli despite their supposed issues with it…)
For the record, i really do not care for loli/shota and i feel the board would be be better if it was spoilered.

>5. I've spoken to many in the abdl art community [lol] and they want nothing to do with this place because the board manager is a jackass.
No, they're just seething because some of their own were told to put a bag over their head for the sake of the rest of us.
/aco/ Padded (Discord server mainly populated by C-Tier """artists""") got pissy because Faal's atrocious art is one of few bad enough to be explicitly mentioned in the rules.
Pink Diapers is a Cushypen crony and so that clique is probably seething too.
This seems to be a reoccurring talking point ITT. "Hurf durf you won't have any """artists""" here to legitimize your existence!!!".
Come off it, that is a pathetic attempt at a back hand.
There's only a handful of non-furry Western artists that have any artistic ability at all and they aren't residents of any other image boards either.
Again, this isn't Gnarsie's shitty discord server where anyone that scratches a piece of paper gets labeled as an "artist" (Gnarsie himself included in that lmao)

Sounds like you're the one who shouldn't have been around a hentai board on an image board revolving around Japanese culture if you got butthurt by not being allowed to post western shit.
>/abdl/
Even putting aside the art, the moderation is near non-existent, turning it into a hellhole of schizos shitposting.

There is a little function called "click on spoilered images". If you really want to look at those images, you can, but everyone else has it hidden already without seeing them first and needing bleach for their eyes.

Personally, i can tell from a thumbnail if it's a pic that i might like or dislike. Spoilers kind of fucks with that. I really don't want to play minesweeper every time i come here.

Spoilering images has been the only form of moderation i've seen so far and there's a like a shit ton of lisa simpson pics in the edit thread.

Yes, the schizos complaining in this thread kind of prove the point. Also, I remember briefly seeing some thread made by some nutjob who was obsessed with wearing smelly clothes looking for a date, but it was gone within hours. Lo and behold, it's still up on /abdl/.
>I really don't want to play minesweeper every time i come here.
So… just avoid pictures bad enough to get spoilered? Most people don't want to see even a thumbnail of the Kanker sisters with toothless gums drooling all over the place.

>I'm scrolling through /abdl/ right now and I'm not seeing much of this "hellhole" you are describing
>>2270 makes it pretty clear. It's not as bad as it was a few years ago (mainly because /abdl/ lost a lot of its userbase after 8chan went down, and some of the more paranoid ones went to Julay), but there were some very notorious shitposters running amok there. "m-muh activity!" is a pretty lackluster excuse for having a board full of cancer.

It's more like smokers being referred to the smoking area and getting butthurt that they can't smoke in the no smoking areas.

So you think there should be a designated toon art thread just like there is for scat and furry, then?

Maybe you should accept this isn't DD, Adisc or sissykiss?
Maybe you should get used to the idea this is a curated board?
Maybe you dont understand you dont own this board?
Maybe you dont write the rules?
You could just leave if you dont like the rules.
So far, you have been trying to pressure everyone else into accepting your rules, when you have done zero work for his board.
Reminds me of one of those IDontWorkHere stories, about the café where three gamers who dont like water combined with soap, tried to dictate opening hours for a café which closed for the day for a private party. The ring leader threw a fit, and knocked down the very expensive espresso machine.
This isn't your board, and you dont need to be here if you dont like it. Stop trying to force your rules onto everyone else.

Posting rate in this board is (and will always be because so niche topic) way too slow for bump limits and complicated rules. It's seen so many times on other sites that too complicate rules combined with small userbase will make the site die.
[b]Current rules stated in post >>1 are very good. They cover the main problems in /abdl/ -> arguing autists and shitty quality art unspoilered everywhere.[/b]
>#3
If you can only post one image per time, people will not dump images. Content is what we want. Of course people could use image hosting sites/file lockers for dumps but they have two problems:
>good ones require login (mega, gdrive)
>especially the ones not requiring login, will delete images pretty quickly -> fastforward a year or so and we will have threads full of dead links
If a rule like this is enforced, then there should be a good tutorial about hosting sites linked to visible place.
>#4
Topics should be edited instead. Deleting content is the surest way to lost potential users.
>#5
This is good idea. Tutorials should be linked to >>1 post and also in threads where they would reduce spam questions. These tutorials are needed at least:
>how to use sauce nao / google reverse search + install image search options addon
>how to post long videos and image dumps to file lockers
>where to find fap material (eXh, pixiv, tumbex and so on)
…
Then I have one suggestion of my own too: File sharing is one of the main things in every abdl board and links die quickly. Some times very quickly due to dmca bots. Thats why a rule/instruction should be added that every mega etc. upload should be protected with a password.

Really? I've never encountered that problem. I know images / files over 20 some megabytes won't post, but I've never had any problems with resolution. Honestly it might be something to ask /meta/ about there if there is a problem
