It's come to this, /lit/.

I'm starting an "If It's Brown, Flush it Down" campaign to get moot to pay attention to the systematic abuse the board gets from Brownbear and other tripfags.

Starting with the Sticky, we need to eradicate this place of the nasty eyesores that keep sane, level lit-lovers at bay.

Any and all suggestions on how to reclaim /lit/ for Anons get posted in this thread.

Why can't this board be about literature?

It's not literature, but neither are 60% of new posts by tripfags such as Tybrax and Brownbear. Do you understand the purpose of this one thread in relation to all new ones?

>> No.1621624

Yes. Now consider the fact that threads complaining about tripfags come up almost everyday. You're only adding to that mess. So if you see them posting stupid or irrelevant shit, just report and move on.

40% isnt even bad for a tripfag compared to other boards.

and right now im probably around 89 or 90% on topic over the week.

OP is probably one of those fags that starts threads on books without contributing anything to get it started off. making one decent thread would be alot more productive than this. also most tripfags are getting really fucking pissed off at the treatment here compared to the leniance at say /g/ or /mu/. i think thats why BB trolls more and posts less thory threads. at least to him anon seems to react similarly to them both, and why not go with the style that generates more replies!

were tired of being the lifeblood of this board and getting shit for it /lit/.

It's too bad no one intelligent posts here (except maybe that one guy, you know who you are ;) ).

Why don't we all start using trips so that none of them will feel special anymore and all the tripfags won't get any more attention than the rest of us. Hell we could change them with every post and create a sea of trips. Who is with me?

20 more lowtier trips would just annoy anon and have no noticeable effect on the high tier ones.

i think if everyone tripped sage would be used properly and troll threads would die faster though.

said it before but ill restate why anon is so bitchy compared to other boards
- less posters so tripfags posts are more promminent
-lit has always considered itself superior to other boards on the whole. ive even seen posters complain about punctuation and greentext use here. lol

youre new threads could be just as much on topic if anon wanted or was capable of making them so. so basically you just become a scapegoat for most peoples inability to talk about literature on here

There's an easy solution to all of this and I think most of you anti tripfags are too retarded to understand it. If you don't like a thread, ignore it, if it gets bumped, ignore it, if its full of tripfags, ignore it. When you find a good literature related thread, post in it and focus on literature related threads. Threads like these actually are the cancer killing lit, as much as brownbears hurdur lit related made up story troll threads and the rest of them. Also, trips like D&E and Ty and Isabelle huppert bring a lot to the board. More so than you do. If you don't want unrelated threads clogging up the board I would appreciate it if you weren't hypocritical, Either delete it or keep saging it. All these threads do is inflate the stupider trips' egos.

>> No.1621698

>>1621584
You must be the guy with "all anons, report this thread! they must be delete naw!11". What you're trying to do is stupid, useless and I advise you to invest your time in something more usefull.
I will just repeat myself until someone gets it:

The board regulates itself passively, not by bitching but by contributing.

what's the question?

>> No.1621814

the problem is that when it comes to caring about /lit/ tripfags greatly outnumber anon because trips actually attach an identity to this board. thats why they shit up this place on a daily basis and probably will never go away. they're stuck

Tybrax, you don't bother me. Actually most of the trips don't bother me at all, and that includes capsguy, too (just get a trip already!). It's just ridiculous when trips like BB are posting daily greentext stories with an 'XXXX general?' question at the bottom and calling it /lit/ related. It's even worse when they're on books like Catcher in the Rye which already get mentioned daily anyway. D&E/Tom Harper lovefest? Unnecessary. And on and on and on. . .

>also most tripfags are getting really fucking pissed off at the treatment here
>were tired of being the lifeblood of this board and getting shit for it /lit/
The problem with your trip is one of the same reasons you adopted it, I'm guessing: so that people remember your posts as yours and not anon. Unfortunately this works for the on topic posts and the trolls, and it's human nature for the troll posts to stick out in our minds more.

I'm not trying to fag out and make /lit/ serious business but maybe hold ourselves a little higher than /b/

I at least respect this tripfag, even when I don't like this tripfag. But I tend to agree with her. D&E I do like even if I don't agree with him often and think he's a bit blinkered or narrow minded. Brownbear's a faggot that floods the board with his shit tier brown mess.
