Are there any gaming forums left that are still alive? Everytime I check out a forum they're filled with the most vile social rejects I've ever seen

Seriously is 4chan the last bastion of decently and free speech?

Forums died not because of Social Media but because the only people left still visiting these places are old jaded losers that are literally "old good, new bad" with no opinions worth reading.

Did you guys forget how retarded the old total war forums were? Forums killed themself

Because if you say the gamer word you'll be strike down like Leddit. If you say something someone doesn't like you can be striked down for "low quality posts" or "instigating flame wars".

You're literally not supposed to say nigger on any board that's not /b/. There's a million things you can get banned for. Hell you can get banned for posting about videogames on here.
The difference is the lack of a profile, but you shouldn't give a shit about that. Just take two seconds to make a new account. It's faster than cycling your IP.
Also if you really want to call faggots faggots just claim to be bi or queer. Faggots love calling each other faggots

I've been banned probably less than 10 times, for three days at a time, in the twenty years I've been using 4chan. I also don't use the site every day, post every time I visit, or make new threads every time I post. My posting to viewing ratio is very small and my new thread to post ratio is lower still. I also don't typically post just to wind people up. If someone is complaining about getting banned repeatedly, there is a strong chance they are deliberately pushing the boundaries of what they can get away with, or in other words, asking for it.

I don't get why people here jerk off about Forums so much. Most Forums had the usual posters that were extremely active, recognised by everyone and given preferential treatment. Everything an anon imageboard like 4chan is against.
Forums and Subreddits/Dirscord servers are basically the same thing. Only difference is that you have to make an account and join a Discord server to see posts.
>>
>>733710426
This place is filled with assholes who are desperate to look down on others and deeply unpleasant shitheads who thrive off negative attention. There's no "decency" to be found on 4chan.
You're right about us being the last bastion of free speech though. Everywhere else appears to be filled with lisping hypocrites who claim to be on the side of free speech but will also come up with some drivel about how stamping down on opinions they don't like is fine too. Usually because "anyone not just like me is a nazi".
>>
>>733710692
I've been permanently banned on 4chan twice in the last year for talking about touhou. I've been here for 20 years and this has never happened before. There's also a lot more blatant moderator threads where where they'll ban all criticism like it's Jewish internment camp and if you make a thread on any game that's not moderator approved it'll either get swarmed by sharty shitposters or the moderators themselves, and seeing how abib talks and behaves I really wouldn't be surprised if it's mostly moderators. Unless you're a complete retard scraping at the bottom of the barrel for the most unholy retarded garbage imaginable I can scarcely imagine how you couldn't see 4chan as extremely curated and astroturfed. It's pretty clear this place is turning into a somethingawful tier echo chamber, which it was made to get away from in the first place.

I literally got banned for calling a mod a retarded tertiary after they instaneously deleted touhou threads for 4 straight months whenever they weren't about their moronic rpg spin offs. It's very obvious the direction the board is being pushed in. I don't think it's even fair to say this place is for video game discussion any more, the scope of what's allowed is INCREDIBLY narrow. Like I remember mods seething and deleting silksong threads within 2 days of its release, that's how incredibly bad it's gotten now, even that's not allowed. Like you can't even come here for video game news any more, 99.99% of news just slips through the cracks because of everyone that actually plays stuff got chased away.

Not to defend modfaggotry, but there's no shortage of places to discuss Touhou on 4chan. /vg/ has a general and /jp/ has 20+ Touhou threads active at all times. That's most likely why the threads are getting deleted.

Franky I wish pokemon got the same treatment, it has an entire board to itself but pokedrones still spam here.

Also gacha. They have active /vg/ generals, they have their own board (/vmg/), yet half of /v/'s catalog at any given moment is gacha fapbait.
>>
>>733717524
>That's most likely why the threads are getting deleted.
No because when I made threads on other shmups it got autosaged while the spamming retard was allowed to make 15 tyrian threads a day. And if touhou isn't allowed, then why are threads on touhou rpgs allowed? It's not consistent, it's biased and weighted towards 1 genre, and other places to discuss touhou is disengenous, as they are subject to the same unhinged shitposting used to derail threads here. It's apparently against the rules to call someone a tertiary, but the constant ritual posting and diaper posting is a-okay because it kills the threads. When moderation is biased it stacks discussion into one very narrow subject and everything starts to feel very curated and stagnate.

Nah, I stopped using /a/ and use manga sites for discussion instead now. No more super curated generals, no more/pol/ sperg outs, feels just like old 4chan. I've been turning more and more to discords for video game discussion, I really don't like them but I can't go here for news and obviously gaming journalism or forums isn't an option because it's full of paid ads, opinion policing, and community reps, but joining a normal discord to get constant news feeds on the latest indies and shit has actually been beneficial. I've never been banned for having an opinion on these spaces, I get banned for having an opinion here. This is the main difference between 4chan and civil discussion. Now 4chan thinks "free speech means aggressively samefagging and spamming to slide discussion and saying nigger is okay as long as I suck the admins dick and never disagree with them", whereas elsewhere on the internet it's "I can have any opinion I want as long as I'm civil and don't start screaming racial slurs". It's just really fucking gay, it's just like somethingawful was before the admin killed himself.

>>733710426
The problem is that any good forums left have become a closed garden that won't let new blood in because new people in 2026 almost always ruin whatever websites they migrate to because they're too brainrotted to offer anything interesting to discuss.

What's up with 4chan just being nothing but deranged retards who have a literal Bible of name fags they blame everything on. Like people used to say "4chan is a shithole but they really know their stuff". You can't say that any more. 4chan sucks at games now, they get filtered by anything thats not the most infantile baby game imaginable and its the same threads everyday where some slav makes a skyrim thread and goes "le what am in for"(which used to net a ban before everything went to shit). The only anime they discuss is old toonami anime, mostly dragon ball. /ck/ is full of fast food advertisement. /k/ has literal glowie threads. /pol/ is intelligence agencies from third world countries competing to see who can gaslight an audience who's not even there any more. /diy/ is literally retards who don't know how to swing a hammer. /tv/ is just retarded normalfags watching abysmal dadshit and netflix. A huge portion of the board is people grooming gullible and lonely morons on /trash/ and /soc/. I dont even know what the fuck is going on in /lgbt/ but ive never seen anything so mentally ill in my entire life. The appeal of this place is rapidly dwindling and its just going to become a handful of pass paypigs that post like they have early onset dementia or are just stoned/drunk all the time.

The ironic part here is they actually don't and they're severely retarded.

I think there is this archetype surfacing on the internet, where it is this very info wars tier "right winged" individual who looks for these very casual games which are just a series of arbitrary knowledge checks that don't really present any obstacle once you know how to deal with them, like there's just this type of dude that's a hugely fake projecting retard that's lost in their own delusions. Like you look at what /pol/ plays and it's mostly rpgs and paradox games, because you can be really stupid, casual, unwilling to learn, and uncoordinated and still breeze through that stuff without hitting any discouraging road blocks. Like I think there's a psychological barrier where they can't handle a game telling them "no, you don't deserve to just constantly progress for no reason".
