Ehh sci tier enough,

I want to make this thread to possibly save ripchan form extinction and increase the number of VERY high quality post. I think our image board is a good combination of both shit posting and serious discussions. However, as Plato states the world is made of ideal forms, by understanding these forms we can improve our own reality. The goal is not necessarily to spam and reply farm, the goal is to consistently create maximum quality threads to were anytime you log on you are a better person then when you came, this should be the goal for any online discussion, as the social network should bring people together instead of making them more separate.

There is a theoretical thread that could auto säge 3 many time over, and there is a Hypothetical thread that could shoot KC like a rocket. It is ip to us to discover what these threads are and how to replicate them.

STARTING QUESTIONS

Is it better to use an actual photo or a digital drawing as a caption? A gif or a video? A title or no title? How many files should be used 1-4?

Should the thread’s word length be long with lots of things to respond to or short as to not deter people from posting? Is it better to speak telegraphically so people have a tersely understanding of what to say? Or should we post with many tangents, as to increase the number of conversations.

hypothesis and theories In the replies

There is so much to say so I will post them in the comments. I encourage you to respond with your own theories, thoughts and opinions, as well as correct me or add one to what could be said. I hope you enjoy another meta discussion and psychological thread.

TEST

The funniest part of science is the testing to see if your theories are correct. Of course, our sample size is much too small, I recommend testing threads on kohlchan.net krautchan.org/int/ or krautchan.org/m there you will get much insight on the Bernd mind to help this KC.

the best post are based on a few qualities, they should take time to develop, have noticeable effort put into them, and have multiple parties participating in a shared interest. They should leave the reader enlightened while reading the comments. Bonus points if they are long and coherent.

The highest quality threads on KC.rip are ones like my meta comics and Hungary’s endchan TV. Threads with a noticeable amount of work put into them and consistent not just through the thread but through time. KC.org has the radio thread and perhaps one of the most profound projects of contemporary KC history is kohlchan’s kohlnize. Thread like these are what we should strive for.

>The human tendency of projecting favorable qualities in our ideas of perfection

Our Interest play a role in not only driving our post, our ideas of quality. If you were to ask a kohl Bernd on the pedo situation they will have the inherited bias towards pedo shit. They would prefer boards that allow more loil seeing these boards and threads as “quality”. I too fall into biases for example I don’t like loil so I will see discussions about it as generally low quality. A more egregious example would be a “post femboy porn” thread or “post Asians” thread would personally get more quality points than “post blonds” dispite them being very similar in quality. We need to be objective when will create definitions for quality.

The pseudo quality threadBernd2026-07-08 19:19:38 · 2dNo. 362852 reply

generals are a good way for every user to stay on track and get a shit ton of replies. We can prove this with the most replied to thread of modern KC, the Russia vs Ukrainian kohl general. While the subject matter is /pol/ tier there have been thousands of threads that had stayed on track with the theme and persisted throughout time for a while. However such threads are prone to corruption and in the worse cases make it impossible for anything new (the highest form of human creation) to be made.

Take for example ernstchan.top, it was boring in large part to the fact that it was an image board filled with generals anyone who wanted to make something new was pushed to the bottom and made room to the threads that had over 200 replies but on an image board slower than this one.

KC.org is that standard for generals, using them as containment thread instead of containing the users. Orgchan knows that while they may synthesize quality discussions they in themselves are not quality.

The reason why kohlchan threads suck is because everyone is trying to stay on page one, and the demographic of kohlchan is white older men. This is why porn and shock videos are posted all the time, and why they are so rude, they want attention and they want people to reply and click on there thread.

Honestly I've been spending too much time on the Internet posting my attempts at technical writing.

I enjoy it but it takes away from me, so I'll have to cut on how much I read and process. I am not the only one like this.

I think it's best to make a strong summary in the beginning or a good structure so people can know what you're talking about by skimming. I know I don't really do that all the time, but that's cause I mostly write stuff down as a reference for myself.

>increase the number of VERY high quality post

Personally I think .rip could do well as an idea/info exchange platform or informational blogposting. I really like that old thread about China and Western propaganda for instance. This was the inspiration for my generals. In an ideal world I'd attract people who like to research, explore, and share information.

Most of your post have better quality then maybe 69% of org threads, 87% of all KC threads, your posts help KC.rip a lot. However sometimes I struggle with what to say or if I’m even qualified to say everything at all.

>Personally I think .rip could do well as an idea/info exchange platform

This, but I don’t want KC to look like kohlchan and just become a news channel. The best threads are the silly ones that leave you happy. I like obscure topics and information, they make for really fun threads.
