>>963415 963411 here. This will probably get me banned, and it's probably tl;dr for you to consider reading, but for those who will lend an ear, here goes ...
>>963415 Actually I rarely sage. (Maybe once a week?) The problem is that people like this guy don't even try to contribute to the community and then spam their own shameless request with bumps. I don't mind requests for /d/ material in /d/, truth be told -- but I do mind /d/ being turned into /r/ Junior, where every fucking thread is one OP-request followed by 10 bumps, 50% of which are by the same guy.
As for "people like me," people like you, or people like [point a finger anywhere] killing 4chan, you've got it all wrong. The poison killing all of 4chan's hentai boards (not just /d/) is pretty straightforward:
1) people first come to /d/ either blindly or with a request already in mind (maybe they were referred here by /h/ let's say). Nobody EVER shows up on /d/ for the first time ready to contribute. It's either "WOW look at all the neat stuff! :O" or "Hey gaiz i has rekwest". It's a one-way relationship with the community.
2) After some burns (or even a ban), some requesters return to /d/ with something to contribute this time around. Except that for the rest of us it's a goddamn repost! Then they cutely squeeze in their request and say "I get to because I contribooted :P". Which is what we keep asking them to do ("If you must request, at least give something back in return.")
3) Meanwhile, /r/ is overloaded with requests for pornography (/s/), straight hentai (/h/), alternative hentai (/d/), image macros and other humor (/b/), wallpapers (/w/), and occasionally non-image requests. So people bitch that "/r/ failed me" because you have to sit behind the keyboard for the next hour of your life bumping your thread every 15-30 minutes both to keep it on top and to keep it from being bumped out of existence.
