How do you navigate on 2chan?

2chan 2chan 2chan 2chan .... :blink:
Wikipedia says that 2chan (http://www.2chan.net/) are the largest internet forums in the world. Also it seems -if I look at the sources of some game articles- that a lot of game information/scans pop up on 2chan. I've visited the site for the first time a few weeks ago when the first FFXIII demo screens were found on 2chan.

But I really don't know what to do when I'm on the page. I don't understand a heck of the interface. In the middle a giantic table of Japanese text, and at the left a large scroll down list. Could somebody please learn me how to use that site?
Thank you!

Trial and error. And dicks.

I navigate using the North Star and the sextant I inherited from my father.

You've gotten confused. 2Channel (http://www.2ch.net/) is the biggest forum in the world. Futaba Channel (2chan.net) is a smaller image board which was created when the original 2Channel was in danger of shutting down.

You'll take what you're given and appreciate it.

THANK YOU!!!

not.

You can go fuck yourself. I was actually constructive in this discussion but you're obviously too stubborn to realise you made a mistake. Go be a moron somewhere else.

An easy way to translate 2ch is with a firefox plugin. It's so awesome, it shits on google. It's called "Flashgot", don't ask, I dont get the name either.

Anyway download and install it for firefox then press and hold the "alt" key then press F4 and it translates the page for you. Works great for me. You can also download flash sites and stuff with it, it's such an awesome plugin.
