Can we please get a darker theme? All the bright colors make it difficult to browse for a longer period of time.
Anonymous 05/24/17 (Wed) 01:34:38 PM 41
Whenever I hide a thread, it hides all threads on the board. Can that be fixed? I want to browse /b/ without seeing the NSFW cute boy thread.

How is the site being promoted? I really hope this can be a new "home" for me so I hope traffic picks up speed.
Anonymous Admin 05/25/17 (Thu) 03:41:57 PM 52
>>28 I've created a dark theme, I'll install it within the next day. Until then, the Yotsuba B theme should be a bit more neutral on the eyes.
Everyone who's handy with CSS is welcome to submit more custom styles.
>>45 I'm happy to listen to suggestions here as I neither want to shill the site too much nor do I think straightforward advertising will work too well. I'm considering a Facebook ad campaign targeted towards women in their 20s who have relevant interests, but of course Facebook isn't the best platform.
Anonymous 05/26/17 (Fri) 09:47:45 AM 58

As for the submitting more styles, is there any sort of base code or anything? Or at least where to find it? Would like to give it a try.
Anonymous Admin 05/27/17 (Sat) 07:33:25 PM 66
>>58 Here's the stylesheet for our default theme:
https://pastebin.com/d3EFdDJn By using the Inspect tool on parts of crystal.cafe, you can change the css until you like it and copy any changes you made into the stylesheet. Please take a screenshot of the result and post it in here along with a pastebin link to your css. :)

Really minor suggestion, but on the rules page could you number them so if and when reporting a post you can simply refer to a specific rule by number?

What if apart from the suggested movie night in the survey, we also had a few "gaming nights"?

>>140 I second having another board specifically for cosplay or alternative/jfashion.
I don't know maybe later down the road, there could even be 3 separate boards:
>/fa/ (could include both normie and alt fashion) >/cos/ I don't think there's ever been a cosplay board for girls only seeing as /cgl/ is overrun with male cosplayers. It might actually attract more female gulls to crossover here or even girls who specifically stray from 4chan could have a safe haven here so-to-speak.
Anonymous Admin 06/30/17 (Fri) 08:36:14 PM 154
>>152 Would a /cgl/ board be sufficient? Once we have much more traffic, I would eventually like to split it into sub-boards (cosplay, lolita, fash, jfash). But, right now, the board is too slow to add so many similar boards.
Also, I was wondering if an NSFW board would be a good idea.

>>160 Ah! Seconded on GW2, played it for a while, ended up uninstalling it but it is quite fun for the first 80 lvls and fairly easy to get into, the community is pretty chill too and it's very easy to make guilds, which is nice. Also unlike ffXIV, everyone can play since it's free.
Otherwise maybe things like Drawful, 100% Orange Juice, Keep talking and nobody explodes, Tabletop simulator, ARMA 3, Left 4 Dead/Paladins (Although not sure how keen the girls here will be on shooting games) could be some good options.
Some of these games are limited players rather than MMO, but since the userbase is small, it could work. Most of them are under 10 dollars, free, or normally on sale for 1-5 dollars or less.

>>>/img/ >>210 The more active crystal.cafe becomes, the more boards we can open! I recommend making new animal-related threads to keep varied conversations going.
Anonymous 08/27/17 (Sun) 03:48:55 AM 212
>>208 It really depends from artist to artist. In my case, since I already have a clear design in my mind, it would take just a few hours to sketch and paint. Some can take longer, or even less time, but it probably wouldn't surpass a day to have it all figured out, maybe.
My suggestion would be: Announce on everyboard (like LC does the hellweek announcements, for example) that the board-tan contest is/will be open. Specify the deadline to enter the contest with the design (I'd suggest a week up to 10 days max). Once the deadline ends, have another week (or less, like 5 days) for voting.
>>211 Shouldn't the Autumn Thread be moved to /img/? I know it can have other things, but it's mainly an aesthetic thread right now.

>>211 Hoping for the best, it would be nice in the future for an art board and a nip board.
I was thinking about that but I'm not sure if I should put it in /img/ or /dis/, I want it to be more discussion like with people talking about their breeds of animal they have as well as their pets quirks but even then it could just dissolve into image dumping.
Anonymous Admin 08/28/17 (Mon) 09:01:46 PM 221
>>216 It depends on the nature of the thread!
/disc/ - Ethics of adopting vs breeding
/b/ - favorite breeds and stories and pics
/img/ - post animal pics!
All these threads would be moved to the animal board if we make one in the future.
I will write an explanation for the differences between the boards soon and open an ongoing survey where users can suggest future boards. Then once we have enough requests for a specific board, we will open it on a trial basis!

Hey admin, I wonder is it okay to suggest a board idea? I'd really love an /x/ (paranormal) board.
Anonymous Admin 09/17/17 (Sun) 03:25:53 PM 268
>>267 Personally I would absolutely love this, but adding too many boards will dilute the site and make it harder for users to find content they like. I've considered adding an /x/ board as a seasonal Halloween trial thing and keep it if it's active enough. I'm working on a poll for more user input and will include a way to vote on new boards!
Another possibility is to offer ongoing board suggestions that users can vote on and we'll open boards once there are a certain amount of votes. Please let me know what you all think!
Anonymous 09/26/17 (Tue) 04:11:59 PM 299
>>268 I honestly feel like we don't need /disc/. It covers such a broad range, it's really vague and that kind of OT discussion gets posted elsewhere anyways. I get it's kind of a containment board, but that's what /b/ should be until we need something else. Then we'd have room for another board possibly?
Anonymous 09/27/17 (Wed) 02:03:27 AM 300
>>299 I kinda agree with this. I never really understood why /disc/ was created since I feel like it can be pretty similar to /b/. Similar discussions happen in /b/ and /disc/ (ex: the drug use general seems pretty discussion like to me but it's posted in /b/). It makes me confused as to where some threads should go
Anonymous Admin 09/27/17 (Wed) 03:37:08 AM 301
As requested, I merged /health/ & /beauty/ and /b/ & /disc/. Unfortunately, I encountered a bug, so until I fix it, I cannot change the board menu links. I apologize for the inconvenience! The new board is available under

I don't care for Spoony and didn't mind her posting since i barely noticed, but i hope this is not her doing once again what she did with lolcow previously and posting the site to r9k as soon as she is confronted on the board.
I'm one of the few that thought "let her post as long as she doesn't sperg", but if she tries to bring the robots and incels here she can fuck off the board.

The 'Girl Talk' theme displays the background image from the 'Autumn Light' theme at the top right. You can fix this in the CSS by setting the 'background' element for the body to #FEEBF4 instead of the 'background-colour' element.

Not sure if this belongs in this thread or the comments one, but thumbnails and full size images aren't always in the same orientation, e.g.:
>>>/img/2519 I'm not sure if this is something that needs to be 'fixed' or if it's just a question of educating anons on how to rotate images properly. It might be better if the thumbnails
weren't rotated according to the EXIF data when they're generated though, because then anons can see the image isn't rotated.
Unless this is something that can be configured with a flag I imagine modifying the thumbnail generator might be a fair bit of work though.

What's the logic behind some posts simply stating "you can't sit with us" and other posts that are entirely deleted? I feel like posts being deleted is far better because it disallows more attention being drawn to the man posting.

>>1806 NTA but it's not clear that everyone knows what they mean, also the definitions are kind of loose and lazy.
I am not for getting rid of them, but maybe lessening the usage since it doesn't really contribute to conversations very much since people assume they are talking about the same thing and speaking past each other. I already don't participate when there are discussions based around these topics, but I don't want to go as far as telling people to stop–because they won't, if something is taken away, it's going to result in backlash even if people don't have a large investment in it to begin with.

>>1806 If you can't think of people outside of a bonkers, silly, childish "Chad/Stacy" dichotomy then yeah, maybe you need to be banned, and remain so until you've read at least one book. But in all seriousness interlopers are going to use these "femcel" threads to turn this board into another far-right 4chan outpost and only stringent and forceful moderation is going to prevent that. You can pretend it won't happen here, or maybe you just don't care, but it's already begun and if you won't see it then more fool you.
What you perhaps don't understand is that these people are happy to lie, mislead and obfuscate in order to get their way. They aren't interested in having their opinions challenged or changed.
And what a lot of imageboard admins don't understand is that far from driving everyone away from an imageboard, this kind of moderation can create a unique online space that anonymous users want, but can't find since the mass-/pol/iticisation of many other sites.

Forgive my ignorance of web development for I am not a high-IQ computer scientist; but is it possible/feasible to merge threads with the OP post and image intact and migrated to another thread? The wonderful thing about this website is that post links work perfectly and are smooth (IE a post link from /feels and be posted here on /meta and immediately work) so issues with context and quoting posts shouldn't be a problem. I bring this up due to numerous duplicate threads and their OPs (and it's not just /feels and relationship venting; lots of same threads on /b). Right now the way to deal with this is to post a link in duplicate thread to older thread and lock the new one; but I don't like this for a few reasons.

Another issue with the trans subject is that anyone who isn't fully on board with gc is deemed a man/tranny and reported, which means that there's not much basis for discussion and I see this situation getting worse as gc discussion is expanded upon, making it impossible to moderate because of the strong belief held by many users that no real woman could be posting in support here, even if I've checked their post history and did not see any red flags. It's a weird slippery slope and our site is so small and already a huge target for trolls and infiltration, so big changes like these could make or break it. I'm leaning towards making a radfem board to contain manhate and terfposting if anything.
Anonymous 09/02/20 (Wed) 02:46:58 AM 2963
>>2962 >a board to complain about men I think that would be even better. Some time ago I made a thread on /b/ about how we talk about men too much here, and how that's not good. Since then it became even a bigger issue.
I think this influx is because the biggest subreddit about the subject was killed recently, so they came here. This and the natural growth of the site.
Agreed about those who don't hate trans (and I say this as someone who hates trans). We don't need to be hostile toward them, it's a mistake I won't make again.
Anonymous 09/02/20 (Wed) 03:02:39 AM 2964
>>2962 Makes sense now that you mention it, how about the opposite? A board specifically to keep that kind of threads/posts out.
Like, anyone one either baiting or posting terf/men/pol stuff would either get the posts removed or a temp board ban. Might work since /b/ inherently invites it so may as well have one that avoids it.

If you happen to make a terf board, you should make a trans board. It's only fair. Especially since this website is for females. I do however think traffic will be over taken by one group. If it doesn't go smoothly.

>>3018 It's not that I haven't considered that, but I don't think it'd work out. Ban evasion is easy and this would just fuel the flames and make them more likely to come back with a vengeance. I think it's best to just silently ban and delete their posts without baiting and provoking them.

Anonymous 11/01/20 (Sun) 06:41:38 PM 3267
>>3266 I've already gave my opinion on this a few times:
The main problem about a containment board would be the fact that 1 it would have more traffic than any other and 2 they would leak to other boards, looking for girlfriends and stuff.
No one denies that imageboards have both the best and worse people from both sex and there are moids that could actually contribute to this board, but I think it's too risky to have them legally here, even if they would be in only one board. The staff would need lots of discretion to ban all the bad posters it would bring (and they can always evade). Also, if CC becomes too mainstream, the chances for raids would rise as butthurt /pol/ and /r9k/ moids would just flood with gore and CP.
The only remotely possibility IMO a mixed board could work would be something like a /gsg/ (girls ask guys, there is a site for this) where only those that genuinelly want to help wouldn't be banned and even this is very risky.
