So old /prog/ is finally dead

Over the past 10 years, 4chan has accumulated many features and side-projects, but since the team has rarely consisted of more than myself, a single volunteer developer, and a handful of volunteer moderators, many have been neglected. Specifically the discussion boards (dis.4chan.org) and Fileshares board (rs.4chan.org).[br]Rather than continue to neglect these side-projects, we’ve decided to sunset them so that we can focus our time and energy into maintaining and improving the core of the site—4chan’s image boards.
So it's finally over. All we have left is this shithole. I feel like killing myself.

For the VIPPERs and “expert programmers” among us this may be a sad day, however we hope to accommodate you with some future image board features. Stay tuned.
Haha, no, get fucked, faggot.

Actually, if I end up getting the full traffic of the old /prog/ here I'm fairly certain I'll end up just closing the site. If with just a fraction in the beginning there was so much hassle I can't imagine what kind of autistic turf wars will spawn as a result of world4ch going down completely.

I always just wanted a small site with a small textboard with a small, relaxed community. I probably should never even have posted as myself in the first place, that was a mistake. Too late now. I don't even know why you all seem to have made me your personal enemy, I'm just a two-bit programmer that wanted to give back a bit to the place I enjoyed browsing for years. I tried to keep the board clean and remove the stuff that plagued old /prog/ but no one's ever happy, especially with half of the old userbase thinking I was the one spamming it world4ch. If you didn't like it here there was nothing stopping you from hosting your own bbs.

Enjoy the remaining time on here. There's probably not much of it left.
