4chan isn't like other message boards. It has such a cult following and ready army of users that a thread you posted just moments ago can wind up buried and seemingly lost forever. Tech-savvy 4chan veterans and site administrators developed a few tools and tricks you can use to keep track of posts once you've released them into the 4chan wilderness. If you're new to wandering around the site, beware. Adult content and potentially offensive images lurk around every corner.
