For those living under a rock, the trans thread is no more, did you miss that? Well maybe you won't miss this if I make a post here then.

I am having a discussion with the community to see if the Discord server must be removed from the site.

Just to be clear, I had nothing to do with the creation of that server, the server has generated a community of its own and though their current userbase is very chill, posters in the boards argue that they have nothing to do with the website.

Agree? Disagree? Go to the thread in /sugg/ and give me your opinion, I posted what I think over there.

I want this site to be what it's supposed to be, a Yume Nikki Fansite first, with people who can talk to each other in a civilized way, and a side of indie games.

Happy Easter btw

Sei has officially retired after a long, very long time, big applause for Sei everybody, awesome stuff, beautiful.

Now, for those who don't know me, I'm an ancient user of ubuu, I did a ton of trolling, shitposting, made the staff fight each other for fun(remember /n/?), and helped Chesir impersonate Kikiyama that one time, I was the guy who pretended to receive an email from Kiki, remember that? Good times.

Now, what will change in this place?

I want Uboachan to be like it used to be back in the 2010-2014 period, chill, but not a hugbox, with posters who interact in good faith, who aren't here looking to dunk on someone. A cozy environment that keeps some imageboard culture in it.

Uboachan is a Yume Nikki fan-site that attracts hikki-NEET discussion, as well as everything fangames.
We are not a site to discuss politics, religion or anything too divisive.

I don't personally care if you use slurs and do a little shitposting in /ot/, it is discouraged but not banned, you WILL be banned however if you are trying to pick fights while using slurs or big boy words, I don't care about the content as much as the intent.

This website will be moderated based on what we understand is your intent behind a post.

On a side note, I have no idea what happens in the "official" Uboachan discord server, and whatever happens there is irrelevant to the boards.

Thank you for reading, and enjoy your stay, I will try my best to make the place like it used to be.

Have a good day.

Hello everyone.

I've been here an awfully long time, haven't I? A very, very long time. I first inherited Uboachan way back in 2011, 14 years ago now, and I began carrying forward Sushichan a few years after that. And it's been fun. I got to befriend and even meet some of you. Some became IRL friends. I even dated a few of my imageboard users. If it weren't for these imageboards, I am really not sure where my life would be right now.

But, over time, I changed, as people do. I am a very different person than when I started out here. Very different. And so, it's been kind of hard for me actually, to keep the act going for this long. In a lot of ways I don't really see eye-to-eye with my userbase the way I did in the past. And though I still love visiting, and my position is kind of flattering, I have had the nagging feeling for a long time now that I am not really the right person for the job anymore.

No, I am not really the kind of person anymore, who ought to be running an imageboard. As much as I love these sites and want them to survive, being the owner of two imageboards is in some ways a burden on my current persona. It feels like I have to split myself down the middle, to keep running these sites. And with the way things are going in the world, and in my personal life, I am about to have other problems to worry about.

So, I am passing the torch on Uboachan and Sushichan, just as they came to me in the past. The sites will live on, but I will not be at the helm. That role will go to long-time friend and board user Balthasar, also known as Seagal. I really think that he is the best man for the job. In the coming months, I will be transferring everything to another server under his control. I will stay on as a user and tech consultant, hanging out now and then, and helping with backend issues as Seagal gets the feel of things. And, as the boards' owner, I will retire and move on to other things.

It has been an honor. Thanks for everything.

I have modified the software today to be able to block the actual endpoints of the shortened URLs usually included in CP spam. This should help a lot with slowing down the spam; the spammers have infinite URL shorteners but so far they all point to the same few places. We will start checking endpoints and adding them to the blocklist soon. Hopefully browsing will become less stressful.

This modification has also been submitted as a pull request to the main vichan repo. Hopefully they pick it up and other sites can start using it.

Hello everyone! Our very first, 2022 U.S.A.G.I. Gamejam has ended with several people actually submitting projects, which is awesome and more than a lot of us expected.

I had really hoped to play all of these and write up some short blurbs to include with this newspost, but a messy work-life balance combined with problems getting some of these to run on my Linux machine have made that difficult, and I feel making a shorter newspost now is better than making a longer one in a few weeks.

A gigantic thank you to everyone who participated! Here are our four submissions, all made available on Itch.IO. They all look pretty awesome so please give them a try, and let the devs know what you think in their /usagi/ threads!
