/b/ - Site Meta

I am angry. Angry because something happened and for once I can't really disagree.

rulez are for nerds
also change is bad every board is 2D/Random in my kokoro and you can’t change that

Uh. There's a thread that probably should have gotten moved to /qa/ from /jp/, but... well... It kind of got archived before I thought to mention it:
https://kissu.moe/jp/archive/res/20137.html

don't sage customer support please
also I fixed https://kissu.moe/jp/archive/res/20137.html

I'm thinking about a few things
Tech discussion and the music discussion on >>>/sum/ should be moved into >>>/qa/
>>>/qa/70728 Will end up being locked on the seasonal rotation date to be remade. Will go on whatever board the remaker(who is not me) chooses. I personally support >>>/aut/ being used for this.
At the end of Higurashi Sotsu if there's no new WTC anime then >>>/cry/ should be locked and hidden so that the activity is focused onto >>>/jp/ or >>>/qa/. There doesn't need to be an entire board devoted to Ciconia given kissu's size.

As for just some general notes:
>>>/qa/ - Discussion on hobbies (anime, imageboard meta, cooking, life).
Subboards: [ >>>/cry/, >>>/f/ ]
>>>/jp/ - Funny stuff and lusty stuff.
Subboards: [ >>>/ec/ ]
>>>/sum/ - Interesting things in the real world.
Maybe this could be a subboard of >>>/qa/?
>>>/b/ - Discussing kissu
Subboards: [ >>>/poll/ ]

There's an overlap in the content of >>>/qa/ and >>>/aut/ that I want to resolve:
If >>>/aut/ is for discussion of things in the real world then doesn't the blogging on >>>/qa/ belong there?
If >>>/qa/ is for hobbiest discussion then shouldn't the tech, music and food threads be moved out of >>>/aut/?
But then you have to consider that there's a strong overlap between blogging and discussion of hobbies/activities.
So perhaps the name Seasonal Blogging is inaccurate?

Then there's also the legacy name for >>>/qa/ as questions and answers that doesn't describe it's purpose other than the meta history of a >>>/qa/ board. Meta is mostly relegated to >>>/b/ though.
In the past I titled the board "quality anime" this doesn't describe it well either and it may be better to just drop the acronym system of naming /qa/ to something that more literal such as /qa/ - Hobbiest Discussion. Though if this were the route to take then surely we would need a better name.

But my general purpose of writing this is that I think that /qa/'s purpose could be made clearer by offloading some more random aspects and less focused aspects of >>>/qa/ onto >>>/aut/ in the future.

For me /qa/ is big discussion place and the /jp/ is other. So if I have to think about whether a thread belongs on /qa/ or /jp/ I just go with the latter.

For me I post stuff on the seasonal boards that I know people might want not to be reminded of. Most recently I put my hurricane Ida thread there since natural disasters can be dispiriting outside of the science. I think in the past someone mentioned seasonal boards could also be for things potentially controversial, but it still shouldn't get political of course.

"Current events" was the suggestion

I'll have to clarify something as well, that there are few cases where replies to threads are effected by organization. A reply to a thread can be off of the board topic but a thread should be on topic.

There are some exceptions, but just plainly stating this makes it more clear about what the intention is and easier to organize.

I'll be renamimng
/sum/ - Seasonal Blogging
and so on to
/sum/ - Summer Activities
/aut/ - Autumn Activities
/win/ - Winter Activities
/spg/ - Spring Activities

To make /qa/ more of a central board on the site again:
Some existing threads(relevant ones that are not too old) that have more than 5 replies which are discussing music, food, and tech on that board will be moved to /qa/.
New threads discussing the above topics will be moved into /qa/.
History and tech will stay on /sum/. Documenting events happening in that season will stay on /sum/.

If there comes a time where /qa/ is too dense and good threads are getting lost(such as the time when /jp/ was created) then this statement could become void and /sum/ will return to hosting music, food, and tech. But for now, I want to focus on how it's a board for the summer season, and not a random that conflicts with /qa/.

Done a bunch of moves of content that could have been in /qa/ or /jp/, but was placed into /sum/.

Tech discussion is a bit of a tricky question. One that I won't answer. If people want to discuss windows 11 it might be moved onto /qa/, but if you want to discuss tech on /qa/ or /sum/ I wont pass any judgment.

I believe this is the last of the reorganizing.
I'll update the picture in the OP to better contain my idea of Kissu's organization and place it into the FAQ

something a bit confusing.

Food is an element of the seasons. In fall is the harvest, in summer there's bbq, in winter there's roasts, in spring theres(idk what's in spring).

But there's also a crossover with blogging that goes on /qa/ so discussing food is sort of in a perilous situation where you can discuss drinking or cooking on the respective /qa/ general thread, but it also makes sense on /aut/.

Until the two /qa/ threads hit the 300 reply limit I can't exactly refine the organization of these topics so that it's clear where these things are better placed.

i must be the only one here who would be totally ok with just a single board containing everything
