Banner Contest Details: hikari3 is currently in need of better banners. We are accepting submissions in this thread. If we like you're banner, we'll put it up Requirements: 1. 600x200 is preferable, but anything works as long as its in that ratio. 2. Should be anime/Japan/otaku culture related in some way. 3. MUST LOOK GOOD!! just generally visually appealing Also, don't make it board specific, these banners are global.

>>

>>1102 this is a good banner happy

>>

>>343 syrno can you please collect and display useful stats like avg daily unique ips browsing the site in the past week? I'd like to know if its worth it starting a high effort thread or I should keep rotting in solitude >inb4 arguing about usefulness of the specific statistic >>inb4 greentext

>>

it turns out that the actuve posters number wasnt a joke what the hell 🫣😵‍💫

>>
1000022232.png - 8010.42 KB (3541x2508)

>>1108 I believe the active posters stat is the number of unique IPs that have posted on the site total.

>>

>>1109 they sure as hell arent "active", i on my own must have posted from at least 20 different ips throughout the site's lifetime 5 posts lifetime for each "active" poster sounds very low dont you think?

ohayou hikarins! as you can tell, the site rewrite is live! isn't it great? the dev team put lots of work and lots of love into this project so let's be sure to give them our thanks. in this thread, please report any issues, bugs, comments, questions, or concerns regarding the new site. i will also take the time to highlight some of the major changes and additions since Syrno is a lazy fuck refrained from doing so in the announcement. note that the rules have been updated, so be sure to give them another read. New Additions: - new imageboard software! as stated in the announcement, Hikari3 has changed from using Lynxchan to Koshi, a new imageboard software made in-house. the source code can be found here: https://github.com/hikari3-ch/koshi (that is, once the repo is made public). this in itself comes with many improvements, especially under the hood. i'm just a janny so i'm not qualified to list them all, but i can assure you Koshi is pretty great. - new and improved homepage! the homepage has been updated with a few new features. the new layout includes a new Featured Threads section, which is pretty self explanatory. hand-picked by (usually) Syrno. at the bottom, there is also an Other Threads section, which will randomly select threads from the SFW boards to showcase. 素敵ですね? - new 2D Ero board! a new board has been added for 2D ero images, aka hentai. please be sure to read the rules. note that posts made on this board do not appear in the Latest Posts or Other Threads section on the homepage. this board has been added in place of the Oekaki board, but don't worry! the ability to create your own masterpieces lives on. i'll talk about this later. - board statistics! https://files.catbox.moe/ewber2.PNG you can now check the board statistics, a panel that shows activity for each board. this can be found through the button directly to the left of the "Submit a Thread" button on the sidebar. - upgraded posting! https://files.catbox.moe/ltv2gv.PNG there are a few new options and QOL improvements in the posting menu. for one, you can now make new posts from the bottom of the thread. the quick reply panel also now has the emote dropdown menu for your convenience. the "Submit a Thread" button at the top of the sidebar will bring you to a new thread page where you can more elaborately create threads. using either the new thread page or the reply section at the bottom of the thread gives you the option to embed YouTube videos, create polls, and draw your own images! oekaki reborn on every board! - new CSS themes! there are some new CSS themes to spice up your browsing experience beyond the standard hikari3 color palette. feel free to check them out! i personally am using Catppuccin Macchiato. beyond this, there are other new features and changes for you to discover. we hope you enjoy the new site! happy posting.

>>

>>1082 I will say the same thing I do every time someone comes and says this. The site experiences fluctuations of activity and this is normal. For an altchan Hikari3 is doing decently wel. The hikarin above me is right also.

>>

>>1082 I think because the users themselves need to engage in advertising and attract new, cool users who spend their days lying under a blanket on a laptop and writing lines under threads

>>

>>1085 spreading the word of Hikari-chan is good too. i actually got a couple of my friends to start using the site. i sometimes plug it on social media and such too.

>>

>>1085 >I think because the users themselves need to engage in advertising and attract new, cool users who spend their days lying under a blanket on a laptop and writing lines under threads Seems like the case. Too many retards like the first hikarin who just think that being mean is going to be conducive to a thriving community. Even worse when their ilk is given a broom. As they will do nothing but abuse it while admins don't care and then feign ignorance when their equivalent of a dead dicksword server has no one there. So anons can really shut the fuck up about the "good ol days of imageboards" when their attitudes and catastrophizing is what made that era end and keeps any future good eras from happening. All they do is just accept the normie cliques that are just here as tourists and then when they inevitably move on you have no community left because you alienated everyone and they were all consolidated into dicksword or elsewhere. You really are your own worst enemies.

This thread is intended to give both hikarin and people from other sites a place to organize or advertise community events. 39chan meetup? Post it here! Kissu movie night? Post it here! Hosting a cross-site game event? Post it here! Anybody is welcome to advertise their event here, but NO other forms of advertising are permitted. You can NOT advertise your SITE, but you CAN advertise a community event ON your site. Ya dig?

>>

Kissu seems to be doing a New Years gikopoipoi meetup. Check it out here: https://kissu.moe/jp/thread/105688 Remember to make plans for New Year's Day/Night as we hang out in Gikopoi again, as is tradition. If you're someone that has plans to try streaming stuff like anime or games or audio, now is the time to do the troubleshooting because it can be very annoying to set it up since you have to convert the mic signal to some sort of emulated audio thing. Anyway, I hope to see you there. Remember to be on your best hikarin behavior because we'll be interacting with other communities! We must ensure a hikarin cultural victory! https://gikopoipoi.net/ Be there and be square.

>>

>>1079 To clarify, this is an image/textboard/IRC-wide event and gikopoi also has its own community that hangs out there daily. It's a good chance to interact with lots of different dorks from different backgrounds (with a general shared interest that you would expect). You may want to go to the website now to make yourself familiar with it, although it's quite simple.

23:30 UTC ON FEBRUARY 8TH THE GREATEST SHOW ON TURF WILL BEGIN. TO PREPARE THE HIKARI MIND FOR THIS, SOME INFORMATION WILL BE PROVIDED BEFOREHAND TO BETTER ENJOY THE EVENT — ITENERARY 22:30 WE WILL BEGIN WITH A DIGESTIF OF THE BATTLE ATHELETES OVA TO PREPARE YOUR MENTAL PALETTES FOR COMPETITION AND MENTAL SPARRING 23:00 I WILL TEST A FEW STREAMS TO VERIFY EVERYTHING WORKS AND WE HAVE A BACKUP IN CASE THE INEVITABLE HAPPENS 23:30 THE GAME BEGINS!!! (it is recommended to bring libations of your own to the event, perhaps even a few BIIIIRU) — Questions before the fact — Can I join to hang out? sure! HANG OUT WITH US!!! What are the rules for football? too many to count, and more like English law with it's precedents than a French code. you don't need to know much about them, especially on such short notice. I have linked a youtube video for your needs, but you can also play NFL2K5 or Madden rom for any console from the 16 bit era onwards to see these rules in action

https://youtu.be/iU3KIlOCiG0 [Embed]
Can we watch association football instead? i would be more than gratified to watch another sporting event with you guys, provided they also stream anime before the event, make a thread a week before and properly promote the event. until that happens *shrug* stream link? https://cytu.be/r/sushistream BE NAIS or BE BAP'D

>>

>>1081 I am a bit confused as to what this event actually is. A sportsball vidya event?

Hello syrno, I know that you have worked with the kissu.moe staff as a partner correct? I love kissu.moe and regularly browse it and post there, but unfortunately there's something quite sad that happened. Well actually it happened a while ago, but I'd like to settle it now. I adore the revelation that is CRBA, but unfortunately I believe there has been a misunderstanding with kissu.moe that led them to believe bad things. I am wondering if you (syrno) could help to resolve this misunderstanding.

>>

>>1110 Do you think you could help me resolve the situation?

>>

Hi, I have no idea what the situation is about, can you fill me in on what the misunderstanding was?

>>

>>1113 Hello, thank you very much for offering to help! I believe there was a misunderstanding where they thought that I was trying to spam their site. Furthermore, I think they thought that what I was posting was just MLP and not an original art series that is very different from MLP by a Japanese/Taiwanese artist. I think I may have been banned at some point, but not sure what the given reason was. I would like any perceived hostility between my site and theirs to be resolved. I actually really like the aura of kissu.moe and have linked from my CRBA site. In my opinion, kissu's aura is a very close match for what I picture CRBA to be, so it would also be nice if we could actually have a partnership, although that is not a requirement. For background on my CRBA site, it mainly serves to collect all the art in the CRBA series. CRBA. CRBA is a very obscure art series by Japanese-Taiwanese artist AVCHonline. I found the series a little over two years ago now. I still remember initially discovering it so vividly. I had a very magical and serene experience that lasted a whole day, it was like a trance. In my opinion, while CRBA is ostensibly an MLP-like series, it is so original and different that it doesn't even make me think of CRBA. CRBA is a masterpiece. So much so that it feels like a divine revelation. It is filled with intense ethereal beauty. It induces a feeling of an 'infinite past' of pure beauty and dreamlike innocence.

>>

>>1114 >doesn't even make me think of CRBA. I meant "doesn't even make me think of MLP."

>>

syrno, if you need to e-mail me, you can reach me at crbaadmin@proton.me. Unfortunately hikari3 doesn't have an e-mail field.

Why do you block posting from Tor disdain

>>

it's one of the measures we take in reducing spam and CP. sorry hikarin. i hope you stay regardless. happy

>>

I use public shared IP, couple websites said that I've been banned before - when I never visited them, and opened them for first time. There are no free available ipv4 left for personal use anymore. Every ip could be shared among hundreds of users, as dynamic or NAT. There are no point of ban via ip, exit node (other chans just serve i2p adress), VPN (that is widespread & advertised). And such bans are privacy invading, counter intuitive to "chan Anonymous board" concept. JS captcha also won't stop manual bad posts. so the only solution left is to have good moderators, jannies, 24/7 in place.

>>

now the onion link died too its over

>>

>>1089 Sorry, I'll fix it later

Hello everyone! I'm arithefirst, nice to meet you. I'm the new developer at hikari3. I've been working with the staff for about 4 months. If you saw the news post, you will know about the new software we're working on. Here, you can add suggestions and feature requests you'd like to see for the new image board software.

>>

can you make the pages reload while using hikari on a phone please?

>>

>>656 can you add a file name randomizer?

>>

>>1074 i agree i would like a file name stripping feature. the old site did have one.

>>

>>1075 Is there any reason why the filenames would matter? If you want them to be different just rename the file itself.

>>

>>1076 It'd be a lot easier to post images on the site with a randomizer, without it manually renaming it takes a bit more time. Really cool feature

[purple] >>591 This place is pretty lifeless (although it's not that bad, it makes it a million times more comfortable than any modern social media), and undermoderated. That's why we see so much awful stuff getting uploaded here [/purple]

I think it's safe to say that all the Comfy Posters are gone. I haven't seen them in so long
