Welcome to our third installment of 4chan PMQs/Q&A! Don't know what 4chan PMQs are? They're detailed towards the end of this news post: http://www.4chan.org/news#106

A few notes:

-You can ask me anything you'd like. 4chan, personal, whatever.
-People have gotten annoyed in the past that I haven't answered their long questions. Straight up -- I will not write extremely long answers. Why? Because this thread will likely receive thousands of posts, and it would take me weeks to answer them all. I tend to choose questions that I can answer in a few sentences, so I can answer as many questions as possible.
-This time around I might use Vocaroo for longer responses. I am much quicker to verbalize my thoughts than I am to write them out, because I wordsmith my writing like a motherfucker.
-I will only be answering questions posted in *this* thread. Please do not ask me about questions submitted via e-mail, IM, or in another /q/ thread. If you want it answered, repost it here.
-I'll be hanging around for at least 4-5 hours. I tend to answer 20+ questions at a time, so if you don't see a reply from me for ~15 minutes, I'm probably answering a big batch, or writing a longer response.

The best questions are ones that will be useful to more than just yourself. Examples of these would include feature suggestions, bug reports, board requests, rule clarification, etc. Examples of shitty questions are "Can you read my ban appeal?" (No) and "fakk u suk my dick!!!!1" (Yes).

Other tips:

-This thread will likely get huge, so I'd suggest the following if you want to read my replies...
1) Click my name to highlight all of my posts in the thread. Protip: You can do this on any board with IDs, and always on capcoded posts.
2) From the board index, hover over the "Administrator Replies" quotelinks. I usually quote the question I'm answering, so you should be able to read all of my responses from the board index.

Let the tarring and feathering commence!

/q/ is a place where the 4chan community can discuss the site amongst themselves and with moderators, developers, and the administrator (me).

I plan to hold regular Q&A sessions and try to clarify rules, solicit feedback, etc. We haven't had a board like this in quite some time (with the exception of >>>/img/ which still exists but is more or less unused), so we're still trying to get a better idea of how it should work. Super-oldfags will remember our IRC townhalls from 2004-2005, /q/, and /sug/. Those proved to be extremely productive and we're hoping this will be the same.

Any criticism should be constructive and related to 4chan. Do not attack other users. Spamming of any kind is not allowed, nor is trolling.

<span style="color: red; font-weight: bold; font-size: 110%;">Unless we are explicitly accepting board suggestions in a stickied thread, board requests will be ignored.
Do not request bans for users, these will also be ignored and removed. If a user is breaking a rule, <em>report their posts</em>. If a user is a known ban evader, <em>report their posts</em>.[/spoiler]

A few things:

-You must write a subject to start a thread.
-Post timers are high to discourage spam/one user creating a ton of threads.
-Forced anonymous and display ID are on.
-When saging, you will receive an ID instead of Heaven. sage will also not appear in the e-mail field.

-You don't need to post an image to start a thread.
-Threads that have received a reply/answer from a moderator or the administrator may be locked.
-We're using the ROBOT9000 script to block duplicate posts. (We will probably clear mutes/hashes from the DB regularly so this doesn't become annoying, but we want to encourage people write well thought out posts.)
