>>192985 That would be retarded because linking back to old lc would become a hassle and beat the purpose of an imageboard that doesn't delete its threads. Hoping that won't be the case kek
>>192985 thats what I thought she meant and I don't like it. it should be reasonably easy to transfer the posts in the database to the new database of lynxchan. I get it that most threads rotate and will have new editions but it is inconvenient and anything that might make people give up the site is no good, unless it makes the right people give up the site i guess, kek. speaking of are people using VPNs to connect rn or no?
>>192980 How did you get those colors? Is it something custom you did? Because all the themes are gross and dark for me except for girltalk, which is pink and i shall settle for i suppose
>>192985 plz say sike >IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT >IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT >IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT >IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT >IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT >IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT >IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT >IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT >IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT >IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT
>>192985 please be lie please be a lie please be a lie please be a lie, I rebuke you Shaytaan you will not and cannot hurt me, this is a blessed space. GET AWAY FROM ME!
Ngl, I think the anons throwing a fit over the new server are being kind of retarded and throwing it out before the site is even fully functioning with all of the features. Change isn't always a bad thing. It will certainly take some time getting used to and no doubt I will miss oldcow but I think this new lolcow will be nice. Plus, this server change is supposed to fix a lot of actual issues with the site, it's not just about appearance. I just hope admin will add all of the themes, but I think most of the themes we can see are just the ones promised to the donators. I definitely have some questions for admin…
>>192988 the only worry i have with transfering the database is that if it was already shitting the bed beforehand it'll just make the new site thrice as broken and the admin doesn't seem the brightest when it comes to web tech
>>193002 I am a database person, it's doable, I'm thinking about asking her if I can come up with a solution but I don't know if not moving over the database is planned or if it is because of some limitations. I'm also the anon who maintains the unofficial archive so I've planned on getting into some imageboard internals for that to enable a better search function, etc. But I dunno if she is even gonna answer if I reach out or if it will seem like I'm trying to tell her what to do, idk.
>>193010 It wasn't unexpected, where have you been anon? Everyone always knew there was going to be a server change, we just didn't know when until like 2 weeks ago since admin is so elusive.
>>193027 Just edit the layout with CSS. Making an entirely new website that's the exact same as oldcow with all of the old threads and features would probably be way too difficult. You guys are being kind of childish tbh.
>>193027 I actually have one more or less ready to go, with the idea if the site goes down suddenly we have somewhere to migrate to, but I also don't want the hassle of running a fucking imageboard on top of what I already have to do. If it becomes necessary though, I will do it.
>>193017 Kek same, I love anonymous group chats. Hope LC comes back soon but I enjoy these a lot, the dumbass shit threads dont hit the same for some reason
>>193032 I’m not sure why the game was hyped so much honestly. Most the deaths seem very too over the top. The last indie game I really enjoyed was celeste and that was only until they retconned her as trans
>>193046 Nah I've seen some discussion of an actual curse or "Edie was just trying to keep everyone alive through her stories and the mom was trying to shut it down". No she was fucking crazy and traumatized. The way she senstisationlized Barba's death annoyed me. How did she really die?
>>193012 Please do it. >But I dunno if she is even gonna answer if I reach out or if it will seem like I'm trying to tell her what to do, idk. Who gives a fuck? Do it. She should hear what her site's fucking anonbase wants. I mean she's the one who fucked up perfectly good lolcow, without telling us what EXACTLY she's planning to do with it, let her hear our grief and autism. And if she can't handle anons telling her sooper cool lolcor updates suck, well maybe she shouldn't be a lolcow admin.
Also you're doing a god's work with the archive, please stay around in case we can't ever retrieve them!
>>193057 the deaths were simple it was the story that were over the top. Like leaving the baby in the tub, or putting a swing near a fucking cliff, or sending a child to bed with no food and then leaving berries around
>>193071 samefag >What is your favorite story game? >What game is overhyped and why? >Whats your favorite game of 2022? >do you love me? Lets chat Nonners
>>193043 There's too much infighting in the dumbass shit threads, I feel like I could say I have a headache and someone will accuse me of being a troon kek maybe the vibes on bunker threads are better because there's not as many newfags and trolls who just want to derail every discussion
>>193062 It's been a while since I've played, but I had the impression there was no curse, just shitty parenting, but I guess shitty parenting my itself is a curse in a way.
>>193079 the vibes, derailment, and random troon accusations here are pretty much the same as those threads depending on the time of the day if you check the previous bunkers
so lolcor is moving closer to being a forum and away from being an imageboard? Who asked for this? Apart from null. >>193064 I swear to god this is still forearm-admin with her autistic dreams of making lc her own personal site. 'a new engine' was her big dream that no one else gave a fuck about and she never achieved it. Shayna posters can barely read let alone code a website.
>>193091 true, it's a very pretty and sad game though. I did enjoy it and the story about the scrote with the fishes and Barbra really got to me. Almost cried at some points.
>>193096 Omfg I think I phrased it like it was an edgy creepypasta or something haha and he kept getting closer. Hehe I need to reread what I wrote in that post when lc is back up
>>193012 you should email her, if she's smart she'll take helpful advice. I only emailed her once but I got a response so that alone made my opinion of her much better.
>>193120 i feel like she doesn't at all. Shaymin may know how to manage lolcow, but not how to make a goodlooking new site. and she certainly doesn't know how to listen to her own damn userbase.
Tinfoil but at this point i feel like Anon Who Archived Entire Lolcow back in kiwifarms death scare days would make a better job at remaking lolcow than Shaymin.
>>193129 We have to stop doubting people because what cow they follow. When the sad truth is Shayna posters keep the lights on at lolcow.farm. We are the smartest brightest posters on that shit hole. So anyone of our shaysisters is 100% percenmt fit for the job. I believe in her because years of reading Shayna's thread does something to youre brain and it's all good things. I know because i am one. We are one.
>>193098 I don't like the staff but this shit is so autistic kek. You guys are losing your minds over something that hasn't even happened yet and may not happen at all.
I can’t stand my mother, and she always does this super annoying thing where anytime someone makes a joke, reference or quotes a movie in front of her, she stares like a deer in headlights and goes “What? What’s so funny…why is everyone laughing? What does that mean?” until someone explains the joke and she goes “….oh. strange. You always had a bizarre sense of humor, [my name].” Or if someone quotes a tv show she’ll say in a meek voice “….oh. I didn’t know. I’ve never had time to sit and watch tv.” or “…..oh. I’m glad you have the luxury of [going to the movies/listening to music/insert any pop culture exposure ever]. I’ve never been able to.” It happens every time, she acts stupid every time someone mentions a reference or joke and I honestly don’t understand what she tries to accomplish with this, I guess she wants everyone to feel sorry for her or something? Always ruining the mood and bringing the energy down. I think I actually hate this woman
>>193142 you may not know it yet Shay Sister, but you are what you are. You cannot change that. I refuse to believe you can go through what we have as a system; and leave uneffected. Don't run, embrace it.
>>193167 I'm not saying you should trust her (I don't either), I'm just saying that the "admin hasn't moved over the threads! all the threads are gone! omg no nnies i'm so scared! this is so creepy! lolcow is gone!" posts are dumb because we can clearly see that the site isn't done yet and there's some shit that needs to be fixed and moved over. At least wait for it to actually be properly up and running to see what's up.
>>193185 nta but I just wish she would have been clearer about what is going on throughout the whole process. When Josh Moon has better communication skills than you there is a problem.
>>193190 >One of the Morse code systems was invented in the United States by American artist and inventor Samuel F.B. Morse during the 1830s for electrical telegraphy
>>193185 if you're familiar with website and sys admin stuff then the whole migration has been nonsensical. also if she couldn't fix /m/ expecting her to import ppsts from mysql to mongo is pipe dream
>>193185 The 'properly' bit is the concern, though. When did these problems start? Last couple of years. Who is going to fix them? Person who accidentally nuke /m/. When are they going to do it? The 4th or 5th 'scheduled maintenance' of the year.
>>193160 I think she’s one of those people who genuinely enjoys being unhappy. I think she loves feeling like a martyr and will purposely do things slowly and inefficiently, and take over a project and not let anyone help so that she can later scream and cry that “I worked so hard and so long and nObOdY eVeN hELpED me!!!!” She’s so exhausting and miserable and I’m so glad I at least don’t live with her anymore
my nigel caught me on lolcow and asked me, "how are you on the site's down". I asked him how the fuck he knows what a lolcow is. He tells me he lurks. I'm marrying and divoricing him and I hate him so much
>>193194 > if she couldn't fix /m/ expecting her to import ppsts from mysql to mongo is pipe dream archive-chan here I don't know shit about LynxChan and not much about Mongo but it can't possibly be that hard. I'd be surprised if there wasn't something on github to do just that. And if there isn't I'm tempted to spin up a lynx instance and get a rough draft of a solution
>>193188 I mean Josh has always been very active in his fat community. It's a different vibe on lolcow. People know what Josh and his feet look like. Plus he's constantly under attack for the site, we thankfully are not
>>193188 I've been complaining about her lack of communication skills since the beginning. I'm lead to believe shaymin is just a puppet or something. But I also agree, we gotta give her and whoever might be helping her at least until after Christmas before we start freaking out over lolcow being fucked. This type of thing takes time, especially since they're doing it for free by themselves.
LC probably won't be functional for the weekend. And it will be buggy well after new years. If they get it together faster that's great but lolcow has years worth of posts to transfer over.
I don't like the forum approach it seems to be taking on though. The myspace/gaia online kid in me is happy to finally have a website that's customizable again but at the same time it feels kind of pointless because it's not like other people will see it.
my nigel is eating a burger and he's smacking so fucking loud. It's annoying. Everytime I tell him to stop he says, "Stop what?" and right now i'm very unstable and don't know how to explain it to him. so we are just in a endless cycle of me giving hima evil eye. He has mustard on his face and it's getting on the bed sheets next to the piss stains and blood stains (period). He never washes the sheets and he always is like, "What?" dumbly with his big eyes and I hate that he doesn't know how to clean up after himself.
>>193221 > I'm lead to believe shaymin is just a puppet or something. there is the tinfoil that shaymin is just the same as oldmin who pretended to give up the site to escape the bullshit. I dunno if I believe it or not, but tbh I don't really care, I just need her to get the site working and let us know wtf is going on
>>193206 this made me so happy to see. They both look so happy, Jenna was always wholesome as shit and I'll never forgive the fags that ran her off YouTube over a fuckin fish or whatever.
Yet the cat fucker and Jeffrey star still lurk about.
I am divorcing my Nigel and living in a hotel room right now. We'll have Christmas with the kids but shit is done. It is my fault tbh. Have a drink with me n o n n a s.
>>193202 My mom does similar things. She asked me to help decorate the Christmas tree this week, and I kept waiting around and waiting for her to be ready to do it, even coming home early from stuff so that I would be available to help. She kept putting it off like "Oh I'm too tired tonight, let's do it tomorrow" and then the one night I was out and busy, I come home to her having decorated the tree without me. Now this morning she comes to me and says "did you see how your dad trimmed up the tree?" (translation: did you see how I decorated the tree all by myself?) and I respond "yeah it took great!" to which she says unhappily "well get a good look at it, it's the last tree we are ever going to do." probably hoping that I would take the bait and ask why and feel guilty, but I just said ok. I swear she did this on purpose or something. Like she purposefully waited until I was busy to decorate it herself so she can be upset at me.
>>193221 , I used lc for 6 years and I have never encountered lc have such terribly irresponsible admin. People keep asspatting newmin and oldmin when they do something extremely small once in a bluemoon, and I am convinced that a lot of people who do that are newfags. They didn't even bother having better moderation when lc kept being raided by pedos this year.
I saw my Nigel at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
>>193239 Oh my god, yes that’s exactly my mom! Last year my mom was almost in tears because “none of the decorations are done!” when my boyfriend and I came to visit. The house looked perfect and everything was great, so I had no idea what she was talking about. I tried to make her feel better and said “and besides, we don’t care about the decorations! We’re just happy to see you.” And she physically recoiled from me and said “That’s right, you don’t care. You don’t care about anything. You don’t care about the decorations? FINE, I’ll just tear them down and throw them all away!!!” Fucking lunacy I swear
>>193144 >>193239 My mom sounds like a mix of both of you with some alcoholism on top. The best thing you can do is move away and don't fall into their stupid baits.
>>193242 ikr. im glad jenna is happy but julien is a bottom tier moid. you can see him being chivalrous and sweet to her but his sense of humor is making vomiting and coughing noises, gaslighting her as a joke, being disgusting and annoying as possible like an obnoxious child.
>>193221 >But I also agree, we gotta give her and whoever might be helping her at least until after Christmas before we start freaking out over lolcow being fucked. This type of thing takes time, especially since they're doing it for free by themselves. This is pretty much what I mean. I've been let down by the past 2 admins a lot but I'm willing to wait and see what she actually does and for the site to be finished before I start complaining about how the new site is completely shit.
>>193255 That's horrible. Is she especially bad during holidays? My mom is. It's like she needs to make everyone miserable on what are supposed to be the happiest times of the year for some reason. She can be fine most of the time, but I am especially wary of her on holidays and birthdays. >>193261 My dad is the one with the alcohol problem, but no temper problem. I can't imagine what both combined would be like. Awful.
I asked my nigel to take care of me while i was sick and he said "I don't know what that means" so I said, you know, do the household chores that need done and make me some soup for dinner and he said "that's fake stuff from the movies" wow wow wow
Late, but I gotchu girlies >>193175 >>193190 >>193245 >>193254 >>193131 - N0NNIE >>193138 - HAHAHAHA NO ONE WILL KNOW I HAD DIARRHEA EARLIER >>193162 - IHATELYNXCHAN (repeated 14 times) >>193171 - N0NNIE N0NNIE N0NNIE MY BELOVED >>193197 - IJUSTWANTMYLOLCOWTHISISRUININGMYCHRISTMASDAYALONEANDEVERYSUBSEQUENTDAY >>193257 - I AM GOING TO KILL EVERYONE IN THIS THREAD AND FEED THEIR SKIN TO MY CAT
was just able to log in but I had to disable VPN. which honestly I am ok with if it will weed out CP spam and Blaine the Tranny. but if I need a VPN to use KF and need not a VPN to use LCF that's a pain…i'll unironically probably use a different laptop for lcf if that's the case lol
/w/ is gone lol I guess those girls are gonna be folded into /snow/ which is fine but some /w/eebs are nutcase who will have trouble integrating with/snow/ nönnies
>>193318 that sounds annoying as fuck for staff just tell people to make new threads if she isn't willing to migrate databases not hard to copy/paste/edit text
>>193302 He basically had some sort of Haram with farmhands and handed of LC to his bottom bitch or something after the regular userbase caught wind of how autistic, weird and … Male he was. Iirc it was the first time Joshua moon tried to get his grubby autistic fingers all over our precious cow chan board.
>>193326 I thought Ian was gay? And yes I too recall Josh Moon trying to take over the site. Imagine if he had succeeded, we'd be shit out of luck when the trannies went after his infrastructure because God knows we wouldn't be the priority. Josh views lcf as his "beauty parlor" but as an image board which is bullshit. He never got the culture.
>>193332 yeah I assume she means scraping from the html files on the old vichan server which is a reasonable way to do it, it's structured data after all, might be easier than mucking with SQL if that isn't her thing. either way would work fine. I just hope that it happens.
>>193326 I don't know that he had a harem with his farmhands. I think he was friends with some of them, which made for a shitty work dynamic. He was an autist, but I liked him personally. He cared about the site and handed it to someone else for the good of the website because people caught wind of his scrote-ness and his tism was placing a strain on the farmhands.
>>193326 Also, Josh was absolutely trying to get a hold of the site back then. He wanted to build a monopoly on gossip sites and was trying to acquire all of them. Of course, he didn't get his hands on a single one afaik.
>>193377 I remember when that rumour spread. Honestly, I don't have a clue where that came from. I might've missed something, but I don't think she ever was a farmhand or mod on the site and I'm fairly certain she was never a potential future admin/site owner.
I just finished watching season 2 of Physical and that was a lot of ED triggers jfc. the way the show said having an ED is "cheating" if you are a hot woman I am not sure if they were joking…bulimia is not why anyone looks hot. Sheila is not well, the rehab arc was pathetic and rushed. I wish there had been more BUNNY in the 2nd season
>>193401 same, it solidified my decision to be a strictly cc girl henceforth, i hate everything i'm hearing and seeing about the new site and this site seems to be chiller anyway
>>193380 Josh's fixation on this site (trying to take it over, making the derisive thread about us on KF, and then when KF was down some years ago making a note that said we were the "official imageboard alternative" to KF) is so male. He wanted to own the female site and when he could not he wanted to undermine it. Around this time or a little later too he was fixated on growing his female userbase. The whole thing had a strange tinge of AGP to it, I don't even know. Meanwhile reminder that George Lincoln Rockwell, leader of the American Nazi party, once edited a magazine for women.
>>193396 That's honestly so rude to mock someone trauma ! She was loved by her parents and spoiled as a child. In fact she was so traumatized she shaved her head Britney style and formed Cliffe !
>>193158 Men think they’re into a whole bunch of degen shit because porn until it actually happens to them. Just eat junk and then take your first piss of the day on his face. Make sure he doesn’t mention it again
>>193416 why, she's a tryhard pickme and not even funny. At least pakichan is truly unhinged and her retarded need to pakisplain her country lore to unsuspecting anons is funny
>>193422 pakichan is great too don't get me wrong. and by "love" I mean that I am happy when either of them post because it is usually an amusing shitshow. I'd probably rather hang out with pakichan though.
romanianon and pakichan are both awful, I don't believe anyone who says they want to hang out with either of them, you know you would hate it in real life
>>193414 Josh absolutely has a weird fixation on lolcow. He wants to be the site for gossip and seethes that there are women who not only use a gossip site he doesn't own, but said women also don't want to suck his ass. >>193419 Pretty sure Ian being gay was a rumour.
>>193448 The story goes she grew up in a very impoverished part of Romania where basically the adults were raping the children and the children just freely molested each other and she took part but was also molested. She meant when she was like, eight years old.
>>193431 She also made that random post where she said she would protect women's rights to free speech or something. I think it was because of troon attacks on sister sites.
One time in elementary school I let the door slam on a scrote in a wheelchair because I was tired of holding the door open for people also I looked back at him as it happened and didn't apologize or anything because it was the end of the day and it was time for me to go
Romanianon also started the "romanianon isn't actually the girl from the screenshots, she is actually the girl who pimped romanianon (girl from screenshots) out and has an insane vendetta against her and is trying to ruin her name" 4D chess psyop.
>>193445 kek I guess the unhinged Josh-anon who calls everyone who doesn't like Josh a tranny isn't here or else she'd be screaming about your Y chromosome right now
>>193450 > The story goes she grew up in a very impoverished part of Romania where basically the adults were raping the children and the children just freely molested each other and she took part but was also molested. She meant when she was like, eight years old. Romanian orphanages in the communist era and immediately after are legendarily horrific and schools were probably pretty fucked up to, this story is believable tbh
>>193471 It works for me only on my phone with VPN turned off. If she banned VPNs honestly I'm good with it because it will eliminate some problems except that would probably cause some anons to leave and the last thing we need is losing good users too
>>193469 Everything is so fucking ugly it actually makes me want to vomit, and every single post is gone so I can't continue convos I was having with anons. I hope they fix this or I might just browse here >>193473 Same, I can't handle this. I want to shake admin violently and talk some sense into her. The userbase already fucking hates the site, a big change like this is just going to scare the userbase off
>>193484 i feel like out shaynatard admin is also trying to force the gossip side of the board more than the /ot/ side, which fucking sucks because i dont like the gossip boards outside of the ftm and mtf threads. I just want to horny post on /g/ and shitpost on /ot/, its ogre
She is seething because I shouted at her to stop knocking over the new lamp. So she jumped up immediately to a spot right above her enemy the lamp and is staring at me like "OK, bitch, when you leave the room, I'm ready." I love her so much.
>>193466 i hate it too tbh, it's the same template as choachan and it's so much worse than the old lc >no arrows to go at the top or the bottom of the page >all your posts are marked with (you) next to anonymous and anyone who uses your computer can see your post history >overboard is just the front page but messier >ugly themes
>>193499 memes aside I have been to Pakistan and it's a pretty fucked up place for women. I just put on the headscarf and tried to blend in. only place I have been that's worse is South Africa and I've been all over. I don't begrudge her for being fucked up about stuff.
>>193507 Yeah this, I thought they already had a "normal" husbando thread on /m/ and the retarded hornyposting one on /g/ was made because the /m/ girls were annoyed with the posts that were too retarded and horny
>>193505 (You) is fine for me, it's actually convenient to find people talking to you in threads and most chans have it, and the ability to follow threads is good but if it brings a bunch of other trouble it's not worth it. the aesthetic is hurting me though.
>>193503 that fucking sucks the (you) thing is the thing that made me quit 4chan, its just going to spam a bunch of (you) farmers. Its supposed to be an anon site after all.
I apologize I originally put it on /g/ and then deleted it and put it on /m/ because I thought that was the place new husbando threads should go, please excuse my retardation.
>>193510 My favorite countries, not because they are necessarily better for women, were Colombia, Sri Lanka, Latvia, and Ghana. That's a lot of answers but I loved them all for different reasons. Sri Lanka as a very Caucasian blonde woman was pretty shit but it's an amazing place. If you mean in terms of being able to walk around it'd be the Nordic countries but this was 10 years ago that I was there and things are changing with regards to the demographics there and it has an impact.
