>>66135589If you really want to know. 4chan isn't run by Hiro, but by a general manager called RapeApe. He believes in a strict Laissez Faire approach, so unlike moot who, if something became cancerous, moot would crack down on it. Meanwhile OC has all but died under RapeApe because people just recycle the same shit.
As for why mods no longer interact with the community or do cheeky ban messages anymore like they could normally do under moot. That was a direct order from RapeApe when he first took over. Mods are only allowed to make posts or do something like the OP if they are given direct permission.
This of the Jap's retarded perm system, and now apply it to what mods can post.
It sucked all the transparency and soul out of everything because there was a time mods could give updates on the state of the board for people. Pic Related was Modcat's post in /a/.
