The site was updated to be a lot faster. Some things are still being updated. If you have questions or suggestions, see this thread

As you read on the latest newspost, Gurochan is having a change of ownership. As your new administrator, I promise I will do my utmost to better Gurochan.

Shall you have any questions on your mind, please ask them in this thread.

 No.12498

Hey, just recently saw the news and firstly thats nice. Secondly, I just noticed the old archive of Gurochan you were able to obtain. Would you be able to merge them with this active Gurochan or put up a banner/pinned comment letting people know so they can slowly transplant threads over to this one.

*Side Note* Have you been posting on Reddit's Guro tab and elsewhere alerting people of Gurochan's presence? I think it might draw more of a crowd and potentially more artist.

Lastly, have you gotte any progress on the roladex the old Gurochan archive had where the newest modified went to the top? Currently busy, but keep me posted.

>Would you be able to merge them with this active Gurochan or put up a banner/pinned comment letting people know so they can slowly transplant threads over to this one.
Merging is impossible because it was using a different type of database, but there are some threads which are already recreated.
We can periodically put a message to remind users about the archive.

>Have you been posting on Reddit's Guro tab and elsewhere alerting people of Gurochan's presence?
Yes, but I didn't post on Reddit myself. I see some users are already spreading gurochan there and elsewhere, their efforts are highly appreciated.

>have you gotte any progress on the roladex the old Gurochan archive had where the newest modified went to the top?
Our developers are actively working on improving the software. That feature is also on their to do list, but please give us some time on that.

Idk. On one hand, maybe he's a PoS for stealing a site's rep as though he always had it, claiming copyright or whatever, then again maybe he was here from the start, idk, and maybe he just does what it takes to keep it safe and well for allies, and ig it's just a strange political clusterfuck like many things...

The ownership change did not affect site activity negatively. From now on, it will only increase.

>>468
Well, thank you for your kind words.

>>470
You are thinking of a former owner of GUROchan. I don't really have much to do with old admins. I didn't steal or copyrighted anything, I am working on making GUROchan more free of previous dramas and all, so please quit your prejudges.

 No.12525

The CP spam definitely scared off a lot of newfags. I wish I could help out with increasing the activity on here more, but I'm just not interested in a lot of the art on Pixiv. Next time I go to Japan, I'll snag some doujins and scan them for you chaps.

I don't think we got any CP spam at this iteration? For once, mods aren't asleep

 No.12527

Tbh, I think he's been doing a good job. Not too much spam, immediately gets rid of illegal content. I mean it's better than (if you can remember) straitjacket occasionally leaving it up for over 48 hours.. He's also been updating the site and giving us updates on new coming content.

Didn't really get an opportunity to say this Kaguya, but thanks for getting the site running and ESPECIALLY getting the old archives. :) Also, little suggestion would be to keep broadcasting and promoting Gurochan on all platforms again starting with reddit and steam. Biweekly should do the trick for getting new visitors and content makers.

>:D

Yeah, i like him too. The way he types is cute, its not normal english, its like a little girl just learning to be formal

It was one consistent little bugger. The fed was posting honeypots with the same image attached of a naked girl next to what looked like her sibling and mother. The CP only stayed up for about an hour, two at most, before k♡♡z or one of the mods would delete it, but even then they took their time and deleted the spam, one board at a time.

If you have a complaint about GUROchan or have a suggestion, you should probably post here. But you can also find me on IRC(kaguya at irc.rizon) or Discord(kaguya#3503). I have a Reddit account too(u/kagvya)

Hi kaguya, thanks for being our new host! I can't believe we had another problem so soon after getting up with the last one, but you really saved us. When the wolves are circling in, it's good to have a big guy with a fire stick on your side, metaphorically speaking. Thanks!

Thanks for bringing GUROchan back up (I was one of the admins of gurochan.ch but had to move on for personal reasons). Kaguya, did I know you back on Rizon? I don't remember your name there, but then again my memory is really bad.

 No.13638

Oh wow, thank YOU for your contributions to GUROchan too. gurochan.ch was the first instance of this site I ever visited
>did I know you back on Rizon?
No, I picked the nick "kaguya" up fairly recently anyways. Nowadays you might be able to find me online on #Guro @ Rizon too though

 No.13642

>>1800
It was me and enclaved who ran the .ch domain for the longest time (and we got it from ANGEL_ a long, long time ago. I wonder what happened to her?). I'm glad that I was able to bring someone the joy of GUROchan, and even happier that they were able to bring the site back after I left, with all the loli intact, of course.

I may go back on Rizon one of these days. I have a lot on my plate so I could never be as active as I used to be. Oh, now I'm feeling the nostalgia...

 No.13644

>with all the loli intact
It wouldn't be GUROchan without lolis :)

>(and we got it from ANGEL_ a long, long time ago. I wonder what happened to her?)
I wonder... I am actually interested in GUROchan's detailed history now that I am administrating it, but so little from the past is archived.

Also since it's relevant and you may have some clues, I am still curious about the exact foundation date of GUROchan. The earliest web.archive is https://web.archive.org/web/20050209090049/http://www.gurochan.net/frontpage.htm from 9 February 2005 and there is a newspost about DNS being updated from 8 January 2005, but that's all. Really leaves the question "Was it founded in late 2004 or very early 2005?" behind.

 No.13646

>>1807
You know, I have no idea when exactly it was founded first. If #guro on Rizon still has its old regulars (is animone still there?), you may be able to find out. Here's the history as I remember it:

1. gurochan.net created sometime when dinosaurs roamed the earth.
2. gurochan.net shut down for reasons unknown.
3. ANGEL_ created guroch.org, and I joined as a sysadmin in charge of security (just an excuse of mine to experiment with a production server).
4. The server was lost due to ANGEL_ forgetting to pay the host.
5. Me and enclaved (a crazy Russian DBA and old UNIX aficionado) set up gurochan.ch, with the server running in enclaved's home on a 200/200 Mbit line (or at that time was it running in another #guro member's bedroom?)
6. The domain was lost due to me forgetting to pay the registrar (lel).
7. Me and enclaved set up gurochan.cx.
8. enclaved vanished and was never seen again, and I had to move on, leaving the site to Straitjakit who apparently fucked everything up?

The rest you're aware of. I'm not sure on the exact dates, although I could probably find them if I dug through my IRC logs.

There are some crazy stories to tell about gurochan.ch/cx... Four-disk RAID0 arrays that kept breaking right when enclaved was having heroin withdrawals, forcing me to connect in the middle of the night over SSH and download a shitty proprietary RAID controller configuration program to reset the arrays... Nasty Nginx bugs being mixed with kernel networking bugs that caused TCP connections to get stuck in TIME_WAIT... enclaved selling some of his network hardware for heroin... Bugs in the OpenBSD side of a GRE tunnel (used as a reverse proxy) that we had to set up so Roskomnadzor couldn't block us due to loli... And a lot more. Those were crazy days.

If I get back on Rizon I can tell you some tales.

I LOL'd, seems like hosting this website was always leading to bizarre events
I now remember there was some guy scamming while pretending to be you: http://depravityrepository.org/forums/showthread.php?tid=1748
The website was down for like a year until we revived it January last year
>is animone still there?
I don't think so, but I have kuukunen's contact (he doesn't want to be involved anymore) and he recently saw enclaved on IRC apparently.

I remembered there was a same instance of GUROchan on two different domains now. We already do host what was from gurochan.cx at https://archive.guro.cx/ - just to make sure, it isn't the same vichan archive you have, right? Because I believe it extends back to 2017 at most

 No.13648

>>1810
Correct, that's not the same archive. The one I have is from the heavily-modified version of vichan that enclaved developed. That one seems to be created from after I left and is a vanilla vichan (although it does appear to have imported some threads from the previous database). I'd have to check to see exactly how far back it goes. Hopefully I've kept all the incremental backups and not just the most recent ones.

Why does Kuukunen not want to be involved anymore? I take it he's no longer on IRC then?

Yeah I saw that scammer. I had thought about posting there with a PGP signed message saying that wasn't me, but never got to it. I left for personal reasons, not for lack of money.

 No.13649

>Why does Kuukunen not want to be involved anymore? I take it he's no longer on IRC then?
I am not very sure about his reasoning, I think he left after being a part of some drama with Straitjakit that he didn't wish to be associated with - but I don't want to be putting words in his mouth in this case, so don't take my word. I can ask him (or invite him to answer)

He is connected on the IRC, but I should mention noone really uses the IRC anymore. For over a year of my administration, I've only seen #Guro @ Rizon being active for less than 5 times. It's not even the "official" IRC room of this iteration, it just exists

 No.13650

That's really sad. #guro used to be wonderful. I think it'd be nice if you added a link to it for "official" chat (that's where it got most of its incoming traffic from). Discord just isn't the same (and is a retarded medium to chat with anyway). The real fun crazies like Ero and Yuno-chan only used IRC.

 No.13652

Oohh shit, I didn't realize I predated Kaguya on this site lol. Hey Ryonaloli, thanks for holding things down back then I always appreciate seeing you >:). Kaguya finally managed to give Gurochan a stable home. ope you stay with us

Don't underestimate the contributions of enclaved. I wasn't the only admin on the site!

That was an amusing read. I did not get v&, no worries there.

>>1831
I only left because real-life got in the way. Since Kaguya is the new admin, there's not much need for me here. I'll probably stick around simply because I like guro, although I won't be namefagging.
