Hello everyone.

I've been here an awfully long time, haven't I? A very, very long time. I first inherited Uboachan way back in 2011, 14 years ago now, and I began carrying forward Sushichan a few years after that. And it's been fun. I got to befriend and even meet some of you. Some became IRL friends. I even dated a few of my imageboard users. If it weren't for these imageboards, I am really not sure where my life would be right now.

But, over time, I changed, as people do. I am a very different person than when I started out here. Very different. And so, it's been kind of hard for me actually, to keep the act going for this long. In a lot of ways I don't really see eye-to-eye with my userbase the way I did in the past. And though I still love visiting, and my position is kind of flattering, I have had the nagging feeling for a long time now that I am not really the right person for the job anymore.

No, I am not really the kind of person anymore, who ought to be running an imageboard. As much as I love these sites and want them to survive, being the owner of two imageboards is in some ways a burden on my current persona. It feels like I have to split myself down the middle, to keep running these sites. And with the way things are going in the world, and in my personal life, I am about to have other problems to worry about.

So, I am passing the torch on Uboachan and Sushichan, just as they came to me in the past. The sites will live on, but I will not be at the helm. That role will go to long-time friend and board user Balthasar, also known as Seagal. I really think that he is the best man for the job. In the coming months, I will be transferring everything to another server under his control. I will stay on as a user and tech consultant, hanging out now and then, and helping with backend issues as Seagal gets the feel of things. And, as the boards' owner, I will retire and move on to other things.

It has been an honor. Thanks for everything.

According to several users, the website has been recently deteriorating and the quality of the additions has been starkly declining. An user has also expressed frustrations with uncertainty on particular topics and the width of allowed content in certain rooms.

Do you believe this to be true? If so, do you think anything could be done about it? Is the current state the bare consequence of external factors or the medium itself or is the problem something internal?

> Some sushis seem to want to do nothing but dump images all day and talk about food. You might as well take a picture of your turds in the toilet bowl and post that too.
Well being rude is uncomfy for sure. What are you even upset about? In both posts you're baselessly whining about other users and in the first you're just openly admitting to acting in bad faith. For someone so invested in having "serious discussions" you seem to make a lot of inflammatory statements.
>just create a weird environment where you second guess people's sincerity and intentions.
You're the only one doing that

>Some sushis seem to want to do nothing but dump images all day and talk about food.
since that's not really anything anybody would take real offence at or feel uncomfortable with. Annoyed at most. I mean personally, I don't really get it either what they gain out image dumping, but it doesn't bother me. Live and let live. Myself I appreciate all the food posts though.
It's kind of going by gut feel, just trying to keep a good vibe. Not posting stuff likely to incite conflict etc. Some topics mentioned in the rules do tend to invite inflammatory behavior so it's best avoided. Politics being the best example. The religion thread we had seemed to be well behaved from what I saw, but my take is that it was that civil because of the standards we have kept prior. If we had been anything goes unfiltered just don't do actual illegal shit like you seem to want, we would not have that environment, or those discussions.
The economics thread I would wager it got purged because it mixed incel stuff right into it all from the getgo.
>Even the no racism and no tranny bashing rules just create a weird environment where you second guess people's sincerity and intentions.
I do believe that anybody posting like that would actually leave for elsewhere. To someplace that works like you'd want, anything goes unfiltered.

Yes. Rules will not save us. Only by having good community standards and those threads were nice and I don't think you'd see civil discussion like that other imageboards. Why shouldn't that topic be allowed? I don't think it should be against the rules if its civil and people are behaved.

It does seem that there are a lot of soft headed sushis who are just bullies who use uncomfy as an excuse to censor stuff they don’t like. This whole site is just a hugbox in the sense of an extremely idiotic attempt at taking that chud meme and using it as a model. There’s literally nothing of value posted on this site and when something is, the mods just move it to /hell/.

Like why was this perfectly good thread moved to /hell/?
https://sushigirl.us/hell/res/5332.html

Some users here have complained about threads that were good quality and the sushi rolls who posted in them have been made to apologize. This place is a sad joke. A circlejerk board. No advancement in any direction. No discussion. Nothing. Just people consuming a commodified comfy aesthetic crapped out by the internet while being utterly soulless assholes.

Since this place is just a plaything for a discord server you might as well just nuke it. Like why even keep this place running? It serves no purpose and barely gets any posts. I mean no wonder it’s fucking dead because any thread that isn’t a guy spamming dolls is moved to /hell/.(USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)

I get it but I don't get it cause I read /hell/ and post in it like any other board

1) Can you make it possible to spoil only selected images, when uploading multiple files?

2) Something I haven't seen anywhere so far is multiple spoiler tiers or indications for the reason of the spoiler. I newer know if an image will tell me that Anakin dies, if there is delicious boobs with whipped cream or disgusting gore behind the spoiler.

back in the day i was a heavy 4chan user, maybe around 2009 or so. I was younger and dumber but I miss that environment. The image board culture is one I miss and wish I could immerse myself in again.

I browse sushigirls occasionally but honestly I can't quite nail down if I am "welcome" here.

I'm a smelly commie, I'm a trans woman, im a furry piece of shit, and frankly I can't tell if this board is a "we're all bigots but want a good face so we dont let each other talk about it" or a genuinely safe place with a few hateful weirdos sprinkled in as a minority.

where exactly does this website fall on the "these people want me dead" scale? i love the environment but I cant tell if sticking around here would require me to accept that the people im talking to want me to die or not.

I'm not sure I can tell. I'm not sure I want to. I've never been attacked here. The best way to use this place is like a ghost, wandering in to make a few posts, and wandering out but that reclusiveness is sad. Sometimes you want a community to hang around.

Its always strange when someone other a-nonymous on another imageboard thanks you for something or show that he enjoys exchanging with you only to rip into a minority group elsewhere in his post without knowing you are one of them. Its so strange. It feels good at first but after a while you just get tired of it. Exhausting. sushi rollymity is a beautiful thing in its own way. In theory, although not in practice, it makes fools of us all. I think this was its original purpose. It was supposed to level the playing field but results were mixed.

 No.1248

I haven't been on this board in a few years, but I remember entering and lurking the discord for a bit. It was pretty racist, standard imageboard fare, which surprised me since the board seemed nice enough. Reading through the rest of this thread gives me no real confidence that anything has changed other than accepting trans people more, since they seem to be very represented on imageboards in general.

 No.1249

>>1248
It seems like a common attitude is "hey you are free to do what you want but don't signpost your identity or express your background" where maintaining sushi rollymity is wheeled out as an excuse to ignore people of certain backgrounds. But this can lead to policing of what people are allowed to express. But the kind of aggressive wear it on your sleeve oppression Olympics you see on other sites is really not desirable either. On the average imageboard, you are likely to take heat if you post anything mildly trans or minority related even if you aren't being a social media attention whore. Its probably worse for blacks and Africans though. And the obvious problem is when an identity is politicized, simply talking about anything vaguely related is likely to be interpreted as political and uncomfy.

Just wondering why the drinking thread got deleted (thread 15825 in lounge I think)?
Would be nice to know if there's some new thinking on alcohol talk being unfitting for some reason, and if making a new thread is ok or not.
Or did it accidentally get blasted in friendly fire during the unhinged spam thing last night?

I dont think moderation should be disproportionate, but deleting those threads only harms your fellow rolls who were using those threads. I really enjoyed that doll thread and now I'm sad.

I only remember one pic of yours that had gotten spoilered, but if the rest was along similar lines I don't know if it was that disproportionate. If one was browsing sushi on their phone on the bus or something (not that I myself would use boards on anything but a proper computer) and a normie looked over on the screen they'd probably think you were looking at softcore loli porn.

In my thinking, if you wouldn't have it out on your screen in public, probably a good idea to spoiler it.

I didnt see the images but this seems like a subjective and silly way to think about it. It seems perfectly normal to me to read manga in public, including manga with ecchi scenes. Even outside of otaku content, I've seen plenty of people watching movies on airplanes with sex scenes and gore as well.
Anyway isn't it a virtue to not be ashamed of what you love and to not worry about what strangers who are looking over your shoulder think of you?

 No.1354

>>1344
Yes, it's a virtue. Not one that everyone has the inclination to pursue. You're forcing all board users to adopt the same view or to only use the board in the privacy of their home.

I've noticed that IRC has been pretty dead as of late, while the activity on the boards has remained fairly constant. I feel like this is due to IRC quickly becoming a niche thing. My other imageboard Uboachan switched to Discord some years back and the chat has been explosively active ever since. So, I am wondering if anyone still prefers IRC, or if we ought to try moving to Discord and see how that works out. Thoughts?

Haven't used Rizon for around 5 years or so now. Quality among a lot of channels had dropped before I left but it would definitely be a better entry point for those interested in trying out IRC who hasn't before. Their bouncer and cloaks are extremely easy to obtain and configure.

>>1123
Same here. I don't even own a phone to give a number to these platforms even if I were to be willing to do so. Most won't even accept a temp number from various websites either. Discord's UI is attrocious in my opinion as well. I do like the matrix/element idea. While I haven't personally used it myself, it seems to be a better alternative to Discord.

I would warn, Rizon requires a working email in order to register your nick. I tried with 10minutemail but never received anything and gave up after 2 tries.

Plus there's a lot of un-comfy IBs that use rizon for their irc channel, which means you'd have to put up barriers to entry or else have lots of Ops monitoring the chat to put down raids.

>or else have lots of Ops monitoring the chat to put down raids
I've used Rizon frequently since ~2008 and have maybe seen one raid, and that was 10+ years ago. Raids are very uncommon, and if the channel is set to not appear in /whois will be even rarer.

Wasn't aware about needing a "proper" email to register, though. That's unfortunate for those who want privacy in that regard.
