Editing 8chan (section)

==Boards that aren't /tg/==
On 8chan, anyone could create any board, with the (ostensibly; Jim and his cabal of global volunteers had been known to ban your entire ISP if you call them out) only restrictions being those of US law. Most of them are made for a one-off joke or just die from inactivity, but others (like the ones named after 4chan boards) endure. Some of the more notable boards include:
*'''/bane/''' - A meme board dedicated to analyzing the Plane Scene, aka [[Batman|the opening scene from The Dark Knight Rises]]. It is where roleplaying met autism to the point where an entire mythology had been written about the scene. Moved VERY slowly, even by 8chan's /tg/ standards. Only jumps into the top 25 boards when something sufficiently meme-worthy pops up, like the Germanwings crash back in 2015 where just about everything seemed to be linked to the Plane Scene, or Donald Trump all but quoting Bane's speech on giving power back to the people.
*'''/baphomet/''' - An attempt to return imageboards to the "hackers on steroids" era when /b/ could actually get shit done. Naturally it died when the board's owner got shot to death by the FBI after one of the moderators sold him out.
*'''/builders/''' - A board similar to /qst/ except that it’s was actually good and focused more on making individual characters or nations.
*'''/christian/''' - Religion? In ''my'' imageboard? Far more overlap with /tg/ than you would expect, since Christianity related threads were always a thing on /tg/ and due to fact that large chunk of users are actual fa/tg/uys. This leads to interesting discussion when topics like historical roleplaying and world-building come up and occasional resurgence of clearly /tg/ threads. Asides all of this, its a no-brainer that 40k and its memes are quite popular there to say the least. Creator of Christ-chan, who is not rule 63 Jesus but instead a modest, pious young woman who lives according to Christian ideals and also your new waifu.
*'''[[/co/]]''' - Made the leap to 8chan, partially because they were tired of ridiculous [[mods]] like Inspector Redwood, partially because they were tired of [[Tumblr]] shitting on everything and getting [[butthurt]] when their hugboxes are disrupted. ''Really'' hate modern art schools and animation networks for killing anything even remotely resembling talent in the animation industry and helping give [[SJW]]s a platform for infecting children with their foul [[heresy]]. Also ''really'' hate the Big Two comic publishers, for the same reasons in addition to /co/'s usual pack of grievances. When they're not being [[Angry Marines|MEGA FUCKING PISSED AT EVERYTHING]] they also like [[Thog edits|photoshopping shitty webcomics like Questionable Content for the lulz,]] practicing their [[drawfag]] skills and trolling for porn of whatever [[loli]] they want to spam this week. Much more tolerant of anime than 4/co/; anything that aired on Toonami in the 90s was usually considered fair game, as is [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]] after a thread about the slow derailing of [[Adventure Time]] ended in "let's make Finn a Joestar."
*'''[[/d/]]''' - Yup, it was there. Yup, it was dead. Still great for [[PROMOTIONS]] though.
*'''/leftpol/''' - A board that split off of /leftypol/ when the mods started banning people for liking Rojava. Tended to lean more towards Anarchism than its sister board. Also surprisingly level-headed compared to /pol/, not that that's exactly hard.
*'''/leftypol/''' - Thanks to the magic of user-created boards the radical-left contingent of /pol/ can get out from under the relentless sliding and show itself. Loves communism. Infamous for employing bots and scripts to stay in the top 25 despite the fact that they are a minority of a minority and everyone thinks they're little shits (exactly like /pol). Has gone through several ideological shifts but is now predominantly Marxist-Leninist.
*'''[[/m/]]''' - [[Mecha]] AND TOKU! Suck it not-/m/ naysayers! It existed but, even with the presence of some of /m/'s actually-good tripfags, it's almost as dead as the original yellow ranger.
*'''/pone/''' - It's [[My_Little_Pony#.2Fmlp.2F|/mlp/]].
*'''/monster/''' - [[Monstergirls]]. Called itself "The last bastion of romance." /monster/ is very strict in what it considers to be kosher to post and mods will act quickly against that which is deemed treif - which generally means any monstergirl ''not'' adhering to the basic rules of Kenkou Cross' [[Monster Girl Encyclopedia]], particularly the "all monstergirls will hook up with any man, and the first guy they bang is the one they marry" law. They considered /tg/'s love for [[kobolds]] and other distinctly non-human looking monstergirls degenerate, while /tg/ considered /monster/ to be full of autists. The fact that they independently discovered the [[quest thread]] from first principles, had /tg/ warn them that they would push out all the actual discussion, and then [[Derp|let it happen anyway]] certainly doesn't endear them to the average 8chan fa/tg/uy. An easy way to troll /monster/ was to say that they're just [[furry|furries]] in denial: they will immediately sperg out and spend no less than 300 replies claiming that it's totally different with them, thereby proving you right. The heirs to /sp/'s GETball dynasty after the latter flew the coop.
* '''/sp/''' - When 4chan started overmoderating to make the site more saleable in the wake of GamerGate, /sp/ practically sprinted to 8chan flipping [[Moot]] the double birds the entire time. They then proceeded to do what they always do: meme on everyone else and treat national sports as the farce they are. 8/sp/ is also credited with the invention of '''GETball''', the official sport of the imageboard community. At one point, the original /sp/ board owner got kicked out under false pretences by Frederick Brennan and replaced by one of his IRC buddies; the /sp/artans proceeded to run out of ''8chan'' flipping the double birds at Brennan the entire time and roved from deadchan to deadchan for a while before [https://sportschan.org founding a site of their own.]
* '''/sw/''' A board about [[Star Wars]]. Hates Disney, loves the old Expanded Universe. Given the number of Star Wars /tg/ products released and the fact that the Expanded Universe outright began with fluff for [[Star Wars RPG]] the overlap is obvious.
*'''[[/v/]]''' - The reason we're in this mess. Started out as a paradise for people to talk about video games instead of dragon dildos, but then <s>the Fire Nation</s> Reddit showed up in force when GamerGate became popular and turned it into a slower version of 4/v/, i.e. shit. The fact that the board's owner, Mark Mann, is [[/pol/|every Jewish stereotype in the book]] minus the part where his schemes actually make him money doesn't help either. One good thing that came of Mark being a asshole is that he'd constantly spams the board on Twitter, which means developers like Yoko Taro and Running With Scissors will occasionally pop by to say hello.
*'''/vore/''' - Unlike 4chan's [[/d/]], 8chan's /d/ decided that vore was too sick and twisted a fetish to tolerate on-board, and told all the vorefags to fuck off. Given that 8chan's whole thing was that users can create their own boards, the result was that all the vorefags got together and made their own /d/-offshoot board just for their fetish.
*'''/wx/''' - The official board for [[PROMOTIONS]].
*'''/vp/''' - The [[PROMOTIONS]] board for [[/v/]]irgins.
