Convert all references from is.4chan.org & is2.4chan.org to i.4chan.org #41

Hi devs, These two servers are extremely slow yet when you change them to i.4chan.org, all images download fast again. So the solution is to change all references to is. & is2. to i. Many other 4chan scripts do this automatically now. Thanks!

Man who knows what they are doing on the backend? I will make this change on BASC-py4chan for now, but contact us immediately if:

  1. i.4chan.org is discontinued for whatever reason
  2. The other 4chan scripts start using something else

Hey wait are you sure it is i.4chan.org (NXDOMAIN)? Not i.4cdn.org? Can you send us the other 4chan scripts and show what they use?

I checked 4chanX and they use i.4cdn.org. https://i.4cdn.org/qa/1486435366308.png

Originally, some change in the backend caused i.4cdn.org not to work. But i guess they left it active and it's been around for so long I'm going to just switch back to it.

Immediately contact us if i.4cdn.org stops working.

Use pip to upgrade BASC-py4chan to 0.6.3 to regain the i.4cdn.org URL.
