/lit/ has probably seen the biggest fall from grace of any board. Something needs to be done. I think we should split the board into philosophy / non-fiction and fiction boards.

/lit/ used to be primarily focused on books but could have a few philosophy or religion threads and still be good, now the entire board is shit up with off-topic. If there are too many that don't strictly apply to literature, than delete, but A FEW are good and rather very helpful for the board.

>>16225224
Exactly, and it worked great. Shitposters and coombrains stayed on /v/, people who want to actually have a discussion about video games use the sub boards. The issue with 4chan's format is that it gives an advantage to low-effort baitposting, since the only criterion for survival is how many posts reply to the thread. The larger the board, the more posts compete with each other, and the more thoughtful, time-intensive posts are disadvantages. The two ways to address this is to fragment the board and make it smaller or to increase moderation. Fragmentation is probably the easiest solution and would help moderation too, since smaller communities are easier to monitor.

Today is the first time in months that I've gone back on /lit/ because the quality of the board has gone so downhill.

All you need is one rule change and most of the shit instantly vaporizes: ban all threads that don't explicitly reference a specific book. It's that simple.
This means that "write about your feels" threads disappear; this means that "books for this feel" threads disappear; this means that Twitter screencap threads disappear. At the end, all that's left is the discussion of books, which is what you would expect to find on a literature board.

Actual solution: just create a literature general and discuss literature there.

It's very clear not many people here give a fuck about literature and would rather discuss philosophy and ideology, so get the fuck over it and adapt. You don't see the fantasy & sci-fi lovers raising a spergfit on the board about how their pastime isn't respected and widely admired on here.

It is, but it’s not as bad as /lit/ has become thanks to you.
The SFFags don’t complain about getting respect because they were rightfully beaten down by gatekeeping, as the books they liked barely qualified as literary art. People who want to discuss literature just want to use the board for its intended purpose, you just want to leap as intellectual despite not actually reading anything.

The problem is you shouldnt have to do that on the board that’s literally designed for this topic. I agree we have to adapt because god forbid jannies actually fucking do anything, but its a valid complaint especially when our board is blatantly being invaded by /pol/tards who cant have a coherent conversation or read. I think a good choice is just making a philosophy general since it can go two ways. Either all the shitposters stay in that general all the time and people who want to actually talk make their own threads, or all the shitposters stay out of the thread and baitpost elsewhere so those who want to actually talk just stay in the philosophy general with little shitposts. Theres a chance shitposters go in both the general and other threads which is the worse case scenario but even then their numbers will at least be spread out. This is the most we can do since jannies ignore this board and like the anons here, also dont read.

Before the new vidya boards came to exist, did the anons who wanted them petition the mods or gookmoot in some way for them? Or did the mods just respond to what people on the boards were posting about? I don’t go on the vidya boards so I don’t know.

I don't go on Vidya boards either, but a post in /qa/ mentioned a discussion someone had with the mods on IRC where they basically said that /v/(and a few other boards) had become impossible to moderate. So the speculation is that this is a divide & conquer strategy by the mods to get it under control again. Sure, this is "my friend knows a guy who knows a guy"-tier, but it's seems like a unilateral move from the mod team, not and response to calls or petitions from anons.

You would only think this if you’ve only been on the most highly populated boards like /v/ and /tv/. /lit/ is meant to be slow, which it isn’t anymore because of all the off topic and low quality posting. Slow boards are not bad, unless of course you only come here to shut post because you lack the ability to discuss slowly and thoughtfully.

Because the former is inherent and no bad thing, there’s nothing wrong with being really right wing (though right and left are reductive terms).
The latter is not inherent because it isn’t part of every board, though I’m reticent you name which ones are free because the disease will spread there as well.
I’m sad that it’s spread to /lit/, my views would typically be described as very right wing but I came here to discuss literature, which is harder to do by the week.

That’s not how the lack of censorship here works, newfaggot Redditor. The point is that we don’t have to worry about being shut down for saying nigger or calling out the JQ, but you should still keep to the board topic. The boards have topics you are meant to stick to, that’s the reason we have boards, not just one big /b/. You don’t need to whine about the Jews constantly on the literature board, there are books to be discussed about them, so discuss those, culture of critique comes to mind.

I've just given it some thinking, and I figured it out. The core problem is this: the vast majority of the people on this board DO NOT READ BOOKS. They're not interested in talking about literature. They're interested in talking about their political and philosophical ideas. Every thread that's about a specific book (like this one, for instance >>16217622) gets around 20 posts before dying. Every single time. This is because only a very small portion of the board's population is actually interested in discussing literature, I'd guess it's <10%.
So what's the solution? If we make a containment philosophy board, I predict that this board will get almost no activity (which maybe isn't a bad thing). Honestly, I think actual literature discussion on /lit/ could easily fit into a single thread. Does /lit/ even deserve it's own board? Would it be better to just have a /lit/ general on the philosophy board?
