>tfw your favorite game is impossible to honestly discuss on /v/ because of a couple schizos
Sounds like your favorite game is shit.
This is every game now/v/ is truly dead
Literally every game. Not even every game. Every single point of discussion. Anything anyone likes there’s always a schizo dedicated to shutting down discussion of it or posting of it. It’s what happens when you give narcissists free range to be “anonymous” on an Internet forum with 0 consequences because they can always just ban evade
>>736926005> schizosNah man,everything that i post dies within 30 replies
>>736926190Me tooI'm just a charismalet. And refuse to bait for engagement I guess.
>>736926005I'm just glad that one schizo who would spam Touhou threads with actual CP got his stupid ass doxxed. I wish I coild listen into him trying to explain to a detective why he used pizza to troll discussions he didn't like and totally for nothing else.
>the guy who fills every thread mildly critical of nu-tendo with schizophrenia about "eric" and "caco" and "acfag"What causes this?
>>736926292>I wish I coild listen into him trying to explain to a detective why he used pizza to troll discussions he didn't like and totally for nothing else.This is very common modus operandi online sadly. I can see it being understandable
MMOs that are not WoW or FF14.
>L-LE SCHIZOS!!!What actually happens is that reddit/discord tourists gather to create their "comfy wholesome" circlejerk generals dedicated to sucking off bland, generic and often faggoty games that happen to be viral memes at the moment. Then whenever someone enters to say "nah this game is kinda gay kill yourself" it utterly mindbreaks the normalfags as they're not prepared for handling banter or actual conversation. So it always switches to screaming that whoever scoffed at the moment is "LE ONE GUY LE SCHIZO" and inviting fellow discord normalfags to join in on epic roasting while throwing around shitty insults and also hallucinating that anyone else who even mildly shrugs with indifference is the same "schizo".If you can't handle negativity and want a circlejerk, stay on your normalfag social media. Your "discussions" are always utterly trash anyway as they boil down to forcing discord memes and jerking eachv other off, literal /vg/ tier faggotry. And if "one guy" is enogh to make you break down into tears... why are you here again?

>>736927304I have no idea what or who you’re referring to but ok. Again, you’re proving his point to such an extreme extent I think it’s a bit
>>736926676Ironic
>>736926605Anons overuse schizo but they definitely do exist.
>>736926005Stop playing absolute buttshit gacha coomer shit then and I won't insult you in every thread.
>>736926005>tfw your favorite game is impossible to honestly discuss on /v/ because of a couple schizosIt's kind of insane how a ton of—if not all of—these schizos have the same fucking quirks.>I have a sworn enemy>You are my sworn enemy>If multiple people disagree with me, it's my sworn enemy samefagging>The majority is on my side, so I never refer to myself as "I" but rather "we."
>>736926676I don’t know who that is and I’m here all the time. What does he just post cats? Who gives a shit?
If/when 4chan goes down what will happen to these faggots anyways?
>>736926005too many porn addicts here to discuss Video Games
>>736926605This, actual schizo's are rare. What you see way more is just a bunch of cock sucking shills completely shut down any negative discussion about their favorite game by labeling people a boogeyman. FF discussion was ruined way more by shills calling everyone who thought the remakes where dog shit as "Eric" rather than any possible damage one schizo could have done.
>>736926896Sharty lost
>>736926005What's funny is that Ruggarell/Barry/Jeremy is most of the schizoids shitting up threads, well him and his discord tranny buddies.If he doesn't like your game/movie/anime he will seethe relentlessly for 10+years and will flood the threads with bl*cked edits when the mods are distracted, idk why they haven't range banned him.
>>736926005Anon, you gotta power through the schizos and shitposters and just accept them as bump machines. Find the discussion in the rough.
>>736928027I dunno I honestly don't think they are that rare. I don't even browse that much or hang out in generals much at all but 3 of the generals I've tried to be a regular of in the last 2 years have been completely and totally ruined by actual schizophrenic retards. Not undermining how much toxic positivity fags can ruin shit too just saying that the schizos are out there and they will ruin everything they touch. They aren't getting actual treatment because well fucking duh they don't have the money and won't willingly submit to it. So they just turn to the internet, get banned from all the normalfag spaces, then mods here just ignore them when they can clearly see that a single IP is repeatedly replying to itself playing 3 sides of an argument.
>>736927787Its less schizos and more that all Americans are taught identity politics as a religion. Everything for them is a Us vs Them case to an extreme degree and why you often see completely unrelated subjects brought up during their rants and 'arguments'
>>736928549Generals are a bit different. Schizos will almost always come to dominate generals because once something gets banished to /vg/ it doesn't get a lot of new blood unless it's live-service gachaslop, so the schizos become increasingly unhinged and drive away the less dedicated while one or two severely autistic individuals keep feeding him attention instead of ignoring and reporting.>>736928608Insane irony here.
>>736926676>schizo shows up unprompted in a schizo threadIrony just is lost on these people isn’t it?
>>736928608Yeah america in particular is heavy on the tribalism. It's a technique globalists use on nations to keep the populace fighting eachother so foreign entities can sneak in and take control of the government.
>>736926005>rimworld threads only happen once in a blue moon>/vg/ thread has turned into nothing but faggot /trash/ tier ERPers
>>736926676Aren't shartyfags tranny supporters now?
>>736929047I heard the sharty unironically got taken over by tranny moderators, but this is like third hand so ymmv.>>736928864vg is fucking awful and every long-running thread on there turns into an incestuous cesspool.
>>736926986There are people who are anti AI using AI to make realistic pizza just to put them out there and go "SEE?! AI BAD!" hoping it gets banned or sway public opinion. The Pragmata subreddit got shut down because of AI Diana spam and the anti AI subs were openly taking credit for it with absolutely ZERO self awareness.tldr: some people are just stupid as fuck and don't know the difference between thinking and feeling.
>>736928864>/vg/ thread has turned into nothing but faggot /trash/ tier ERPersThats every thread in /vg/
>>736929226They're getting some heat now, thankfully. Fucking retard top mod was caught sharing all the aislop he's supposedly against.>We hate ai!>join my discord where I'll teach you how to make smut of kids!Make it make sense.
>impossibleliterally just ignore bad posts and only make good posts and only respond to good posts. It's not like you can't have both parties discussing at the same time in the same thread.Maybe you should make the thread about the game you want instead of a thread complaining that you can't talk about it.
There's one japanese chan that has a sort of votekick system where enough reports summon a janny or something to temp ban people for being retards even if it's not technically rulebreakingIt would drastically improve the quality of /v/ but there's too many people entrenched into the idea that discussions on 4chan should be a lawless wasteland no matter how terrible of an experience that brings, mostly from people who were never around for the early days when people were having genuine discussions without soaking everything in a layer of irony
>>736928608This post is so perfectly ironic that you would think it was crafted on purpose.
>>736930492Shunning only works if everyone does it. And there's always 1 retard who doesn't.
>>736930673I said ignore, shunning is not ignoring. They want attention, it doesn't matter if you shun them with negative attention or praise them with positive attention.If you do not like those posts, then just ignore them and don't engage with them. Engaging with and make posts you would rather see more of.Speaking to your premise though, I suspect most of the time that 1 person is the same person that wrote the original post.I'm saying they're replying to themselves.>but that's insaneYes. Schizophrenic even.
>>736926005Every thread about either Banjo-Kazooie or Tooie devolves into shit flinging about which is better, its Tooie by the way and its not even close. Honorable mention the annual "nuts and bolts is a good game but not a good Banjo game" which is wrong because its a good Banjo game just not as good as the first 2.
>>736930535If people could just use the Hide Reply function and ignore the faggots we wouldn't be in this mess. Just talking about them activates the No-Life gene in their body and wills them to appear.
>>736930287Why are you narrating your life?
>>736926676>this entire post
>picrel is almost 2 years old nowi think we may be experiencing something even worse than dead internet theory at this point
>>736926175If people didn’t feel the need to respond to every single schizo as well the board would improve exponentially.
>>736931854Somewhere along the line we lost the practice of "report and ignore", I think it's because everyone these days wants to make quippy epic comments and feel the need to respond to obvious bait
>>736931854Everyone here pretends they’re above the normalfag social platforms just so they can flock here and spew bullshit back and forth for that engagement/dopamine hit. You’d have to be a genuine retard to come here for genuine discussion anymore.
>>736927864Why do puritan losers come to the site that invented Rule 34?
I only lurk specific threads to snag the occasional drawfag pics anymore and that's getting extremely sparse as well
>>736926175this95 out of 100 threads on /v/ are pure cancer, but when there's a good thread then it's such joy to discuss vidya with anons, but it's fucking rare, most threads there's just too many unironic retards, baiters, and contrarians who think everyone should hear their idiotic opinions
>>736932632>you are either a porn addict or a puritanNo, some people are just capable of interacting with things without the need to jerk off.
>>736926005Schizo board, git gud.
Why is /vmg/ dead?
I never thought I could become schizo yet its increasingly feeling that way. I'm becoming more and more out of touch with what is now considered normal and acceptable.
>>736932996It was born wrong and its usage was never encouraged or enforced so it sits half empty. Mostly just fosters weird people that look at xitter for drama.
>>736933137That's just being sane, it's a clown world out there.
>>736926005>>tfw your favorite game is impossible to honestly discuss on /v/ because it's old and boring and no one likes it
>tfw your favorite game actually has good gameplay but you're embarrassed to talk about it on /v/ because the game fanbase is full of annoying faggots and people will think you're one of them
>>736926005>come to /v/ for a serious discussion about video games>die of cancer aidsSounds about right
>>736933628I don't have this problem because I am an annoying faggot and don't find it particularly disagreeable that people think I am what I appear to be.
>>736926676KEEEKAAAROOOOOOOOOOOOthis couldnt have been more perfect, so much so that i willing to belive that it has to be bait. schizos truly lack any semblance of self awareness
>>736926005KCDYou can do it but you have to do it in right hours and have correct title for the thread
>>736926605It's mostly this but there are some genuine schizos out there that are insufferable even in good threads. There's one out there who always avatarfags with some moe anime girl with peach colored hair (I don't recognize where it's from) that is constantly bitching about how there are "too many rpgs" on /v/. He makes a ton of the shittiest, most disingenuous threads and you can tell because he starts with an unrelated image and then as the thread descends into people arguing with him he starts spamming those same images over and over again. It's always shit like "(beloved old game) is literal shit" or something. There are a ton of people who come here now just to play devil's fagvocate and pretend to like garbage and oppose decent games purely to annoy others. You can tell with the frequent shitposting threads that will change topic once a new controversy arrives, like right now it's the Crowbcat video about the RE4 Remake, whatever previous flavor of shit of the week died immediately once that video came out and they all jumped on that to get more (You)'s.That being said 80% of the time I see people bitching about schizos it's because they keep getting told to shut the fuck up and fuck off when they try to make Deltarune Gay ERP thread #39234098 or some terrible thread sucking off AAA sewage.
>>736927064It's mostly the fault of phones. It gives tons of retards access, including normalfags and third worlders, and actively incentivizes low effort short posts that are just designed to get replies by being annoying.
>>736933628Anon, any fanbase is just a bunch of faggots, who will attack you for any form of criticism. So if someone admits he is a fan of something, I find his opinion irrelevant. But there is a distinction between someone who has a favorite game and a "fan".A lot of nuance is lost on this chink basket weaving forum because faggots are too lazy to express their thoughts and jump straight to ad hominem. I use faggot as a synonym for Anon who won't discuss in good faith.Damn, I should really just go and play some games instead.
>>736933961It’s not bait. The guy has been obsessively tracking me for about a year now because I like to post animals. You’re right though he truly does lack any self awareness
>>736933628I don't have this problem because I can explain in detail why I like something without acting like the annoying faggots infesting the fanbase and if I am accused (understandably) of being one of them I can simply calmly elaborate that I am not, which usually ends up with me and my accuser on good terms - and if not, oh well, shame.
>>736934180I don't think it's one guy. The "toxotransmosis" or whatever shit is just a dumb retard reply baiting morons like to use whenever they see a picture of a cat.
>>736926005>tfw your favorite game is impossible to honestly discuss on /v/ because few jannies and a mod are those schizos

>>736926005Not my favorite, but one visual novel I like only gets used to start translation bait threads.
>>736934443this I unironically sympathize with. people are going to tell you to go post about it on /vg/ while not acknowledging that the /vg/ thread is infested with troons and erp addicts treating it like second life who get mad if you talk about the gameplay. /v/ is literally the only option for talking about xiv
>>736934112It also makes ban evading pathetically easy even for a complete retard.

>>736934790my favorite aspect of this meme is that once the jannies let the thread get completely flooded with off-topic and schizo nonsense, they will just delete the entire thread because it's "unsalvageable" rather than clean it up properly.

>>736935035That shit never should have been on /v/ in the first place and it literally only got banned because some of the mods friends from off site started making fun of aifags.It stayed because they were the ones posting in it.

>>736934443Did it actually get revealed that the current culprit for XIV threads you're not even allowed to address by name is in fact the mod protecting him and his groyper army? I just know that the protection was hard confirmed when someone got an evasion ban once they started spamming "do your fucking job jannies" alongside porn.
>>736935035this style of moderation is contributing to the sites declining user numbers. having completely opaque moderation that lives in an ivory tower, doesn't communicate, doesn't explain anything ever and is completely faceless and unaccountable may have worked in 2006, it's a dated concept in 2026. the stubborn refusal to adapt to anything is causing a lot of damage.
The action game schizo who was so effective that lesser schizos in action game threads have given up.
>>736926175They aren't schizos, they're nogames faggots that genuinely despise video games despite being on a fucking video game board, and they project themselves onto everyone else here. This projection is why they call anyone who ever actually discusses games shills; in their eyes it's unfathomable that someone would actually enjoy games, so they must have an ulterior motive.The reason you think they're schizos is because being that much of a cocksucking retard is unfathomable to a reasonable person, so you write them off as mentally ill for the sake of your own sanity.Shills and schizos do exist, Andromeda admitted to being on EA's payroll and the tencent schizo's existence is beyond reasonable doubt, but these are vastly outnumbered by the type of every day obnoxious cunt that goes out of their way to make the board worse and think they're righteous crusaders.

Discussion about my favorite game is always "Arthas did nothing wrong" until the WoW schizo's show up and start posting about troons.The best WC3 thread I've seen was when people were actually discussing missions, units, matchups, and strategies but that somehow triggered the schizos who hate pvp and they had a nuclear meltdown.Honestly though, the game is so old that everything that can be said about it already has, so it's not that big a deal anymore.
>>736935730I still think about that one throwaway Zelda thread where a guy just casually dropped that he scrapped a lovingly HD Light of Courage remake getting nuked some months ago.

This only proves that the schizo is more entertaining to post about than your video game. Play better games.
>>736937330>the shitposters are leaving, the good posters are stayingno, it's the opposite actually
>>736935643They keep deleting my bug game threads as soon as they gain monument so I stopped making themDon't even know why I post here anymore
>>736937201Does anyone else remember the angry geologist guy
>>736937424Being way too on the nose there you annoying faggot.
>>736926005Is there any game that doesn't get schizoposted nowadays?
>>736935643>all the epstein ai vidya edit threads would get nuked almost immediately fuck the jannies, the ones that were made were fun
>>736927758>Faggot sees an attractive woman in a game and starts cryingShut the fuck up nigger

>>736936329I'm going to rape you if you don't take that back. I'd rather be called a newfag than a shill.
>>736936712to make the site unusable for any meaningful discussion but usable enough to keep you here away from social media. money doesnt mean anything to people that print it. theyve done a poor job at it tho. i see posts on tiktok that wouldnt be out of place on a board like /b/, /pol/ or the 'arty
>>736936773Or they're just pretending to be retarded.It's been 20 years nigger, using the same old tired "dude they're actually just dummies lmao" line is, at this point, being actively disingenuous and Evil.Unironically grow up anon.
>>736937509FUCKINGBISMUTHNIGGERI ended up getting a small bismuth rock, shit was SO cash but I lost it
>>736938318>>736936702if people are still peddling this retarded shit after the hack, then there's no convincing them. we know who the mods are, we know that they stopped updating the site after moot left out of pure laziness, at this point you have to accept that the glowniggers are on actual popular social media websites instead of dying imageboards.
>>736931854Schizos reply to themselves. I don't like the idea of shadowbanning on 4chan, but it would lock the schizos into a sandbox of their own delusions for a while instead of them just immediately ban evading
wait until you guys start realizing how much of the posts on this site are now being made by AI bots. you don't even realize how over it actually is yet.
>>736938818We know.
>>736932748Only very specific threads. If you know your bait, you'll get a bite.
>>736939648stop posting this shit Jimblo
>>736936401Not really. If you can't handle true anonymity you're a pussy.
>>736939648100% true. One of the most obnoxious poster mannerisms that has developed on any board. Not just /vg/ although it must be really fucking bad there considering all their threads are basically just pseudo-chatrooms.
>>736926005>tfw your favorite games attract schizos that actually enhance discussionthat moose guy is alright tbqh.
>>736939648Just as annoying are the autists who take every post and run it through the search function in the archive so they can screencap reposts and post what they think is an epic own telling everyone it's a repost. They're bigger faggots than the reposters themselves.
I tire of anons misusing "schizo" when they mean "shitposter."Someone posting shit bait in a recurring thread is a shitposter, not a schizo.
The site is dying steadily. There's some threads on /v/ that are 3 days old right now.
>>736941425Schizo has just become the go-to insult for anybody who has a different opinion from you. First it was fag. Hipster was really popular for a while too. Shill was (and still is) huge. But the main insult right now is schizo. Oh, you like game I don't like? You're a schizo. You say something I wouldn't have said. You're a schizo. You posted something that has been posted before? Schizo. You said something that sounds similar to what some gay youtuber said before in a video from 5 years ago? Schizo.
>>736934443You can honestly discuss it on /vg/. What's the problem?
>>736935210Discord. Fag couldn't be satisfied with ruining threads. He needed a group of retards to celebrate it with him so he could feel like less of a loser. Also it was 3 people responsible and one of them was a minor themselves.
>>736926175Between this kind of shit and>Account based out of ShitholeI figure that mandatory webID is inevitable and people will be begging for it.
NEO TWEWY threads had a schizo who decided it was his life's mission to defend the game by writing a wall of text to every anon even if it was fair criticism, I wonder what happened to him
>>736941143
>ctrl f, artifact, tf2>no resultsim disappointed we're letting artifact schizo off
>>736941143>schizo dev disappeared from the robot threads>now it's mostly /co/fags bitching about women, spamming their shitty web series and terrible comic oc's
>>736941582why is this tho? why is everybody leaving?
>>736943681The “hack” did make a lot of people move to alt chans and showed people that some of them are just unironically better posting. Like why the fuck can you only post one image at a time?
>>736941713>discussion>on /vg/
>>736941713I fucking wish you could talk about ffxiv, none of them faggots talk about the game and just talk about fucking each other characters. Only time you could talk about ffxiv was when ARR dropped then some fucking loser posted themself deep thoating a dildo then some other retard posted them shitting in a picture of another anons character
>>736943943Which alt-chans? The 2 I know of are dead.
>>736941425Some shitposting does seems like schizo ramblings
>>736944128this, moe is the most populated one and it gets a mighty 3k posts per day across the entire site - and the two most popular boards are literally gacha and vtubers
>>736943681broke the habit for some people who were only come here because of habitalso made some people realize how fucking terribly 4chan is ran
>>736943681The site began to noticeably decline in 2024. Whatever that means.Only site thing I could relate it to is the IP counter being removed in march that year.There was a drop off after the hack, then an accelerated decline with the new captcha.Also the mods and userbase are gay these days
>>736944236>Also the mods and userbase are gay these daysSuddenly
>>736943681Because the site has been a complete shithole for the past decade and all of the old culture has left this place while shitposting idiocy runs rampant.
>>736935524thiswe all know there are ways to go around them, but they generally tone down schizos by orders of magnitudethey are really mandatory for a good discussion
>>736936048no one has static IP anymore, the banning problem is literally unsolvable, though I admit making the captcha extremely obnoxious for new cookies was a brilliant idea
>>736932114>just report and ignoremods sanction the schizos on every board
>>736945002just report and ignore oh wait you can get banned for reporting a pet schizo so dont bother reporting them
>>736945090>>736945002I've been banned twice for calling out the dumbass spamming the low quality bait videos over the RE4 Remake
>>736945002/a/ is unbelievably bad these dayspeople think /v/ has issues with retards sucking off terrible remakes, they should take a gander at the raw sewage being praised there
>>736945241why does EVERY modern anime have windwaker HD tier bloom?where is the background art?where is the cinematography?where are the NIPPLES
>>736943681Moderation got noticeably worse post hack. I've been banned more in the time between the hack and now than the entire time I posted on 4chan between 2010-2020. I distinctly remember a thread, pic rel, where some mod spent 6 fucking hours of his life defending a yaoi porn dump thread by banning anyone not posting gay ecchi in it. Its like the entire site has been carved up into personal fiefdoms where each mod sits in an ivory tower selectively enforcing rules alongside their own personal list of rules.
>>736945339People will say it's digital - and to be sure, there are some merits with hand drawn that are lost with the switch to it - but the real truth is just a ridiculous decline in standards because normalfags will swallow up anything with a smile on their face if they are told it's popular.
What I'm getting from this thread is that there are an awful lot of anons who are not spamming threads they hate, but they're still massive haters and probably aren't making the board a better place. How about we all just post in threads we enjoy and ignore threads we don't enjoy?
>>736945417>Its like the entire site has been carved up into personal fiefdoms where each mod sits in an ivory tower selectively enforcing rules alongside their own personal list of rules.This is literally exactly what it is and it was this way before the hack as well. We know from the hack almost a year ago that most of the mods back then were complete fucking faggots who were deleting things they personally didn't like, tracking people between threads and boards to nuke them for any slight rule break for upsetting them elsewhere and keeping rule breaking shit up if they personally liked it. Never forget how many of them were LITERAL redditors and third worlders. Not a single mod left on this site used the place before 2016.There are functionally no more rules left on this site except "don't upset the current janny making his rounds." We had an excellent Slayers thread last week that was up for a few days until it hit bump limit, but at other times I've seen similar threads get nuked or autosaged without reason, because the reality is that you are subject to the whims of whatever dumbass is currently on shift.
>>736945518As discussed a dozen times this thread retards, mods intentionally prevent people from discussing shit they want to
>>736945518>who are not spamming threads they hateWe can't self police anymore. You will get banned quickly for that.>How about we all just post in threads we enjoyBecause they get deleted at random.Daily reminder that there was a short lived time when they tried to shadowban certain words they didn't like and the implemented this on the site's fucking birthday of all days.
>>736945518I do post in threads I like but they usually die in a couple of posts
>>736945518>Post in the nice thread>Thread goes 404 soon afterAnon, I have maybe 5 threads open because only bait survives.At least 50% of all threads is just gachashit.
>>736926005>Wanting to discuss video games on the twitter screencap boardFound your problem

>>736945002reminder
If fucking /v/ is your only outlet for sincere discussion then you need to legitimately take a break from the web as a whole for an extended period to both detox and reset your standards. The entire internet is an obtuse shithole filled with brash retards and bots now, the only two reasons to prefer here over anywhere else is the funny nigger word and piss-easy ban evasion and thinking otherwise is unhealthy levels of self-delusion.

>>736946216>The entire internet is an obtuse shithole filled with brash retards and bots nowNowhere, I think he means. Probably right.
>>736946181No, faggot, /v/ is (used to be) a relatively unique place, and faggot tourists like you thinking it's a toilet where nothing but shitposts go have ruined it permanently.

>>736945567Guess I'll ask this here... Is there some unwritten rule that if you rack up enough 3-day bans then that can lead to a permaban?
>>736946473>strawmanIt was known as that because you can say nigger freely and fetishists of all stripes could openly discuss their weird shit on the appropriate boards. It was just a relatively free, anonymous space. The other side of the coin was that you could talk about anything, and some people were interested in that for something besides porn. Why should I bother? You don't just lack understanding, you don't want to understand.

>>736945518I do, but there's only so much you can do to ignore the garbage, especially when it infects threads you would otherwise enjoy.Not even only with /v/. I use /vp/, and that place has gone beyond disrepair and just into condemnation. It's a completely unmoderated shithole with some bizarre bot(?) behaviors like bumping random threads from page 10 for a month with shallow and vaguely off topic replies that don't contribute anything.

>>736946768Can't expect zoomers to understand that. I give them slack because I was arrogant at that age, too, and the decline isn't really their fault even though they brought it about. It's the nature of all things, nothing good lasts, all things die.

>>736946813>useless faggot has nothing of worth to saythen shut the fuck up man
>>736946813You're right but it's impossible. It can't happen, things just don't move in that direction. Be glad it happened, I guess. Majorian couldn't restore rome. We can't restore 4chan. It belongs to the barbarians now.
>>736946473>jokingly call ourselves the Legion of Doom because you can say nigger and faggot here while the rest of the world acts like those are war crimes>this means it's ok to treat the site like an outhouse and deliberately make it as unbearable and shitty as possible>stupid fuck doesn't even recognize a famous movie quoteMy senses are telling me this user is below the age of 30, only started using the internet when smartphones made it popular and is probably gay.
There's too much culture split on /v/ and less tolerance overall. I try to mentally filter stuff like gacha, h-game, pornbait but honestly it's been years now and it's getting worse. I contribute to threads I like as much as I can but they're getting rarer. Most of the time it's always the same posters (me included), we get 70 replies and the thread archives.
>>736946942>>nothing of worth to sayExactly, dumbass. We're on /v/.

>want to discuss literally any even remotely new game on /v/>underage third world children pretending to be based oldfags call everything "slop" and start arguing about games they don't play (old or new) and tech they don't understand on any level
>>736943681I think open forums in general are dying as it's impossible to have any sort of discussion in good faith anymore
>>736947296>want to discuss literally any even remotely new game on /v/Then you genuinely don't belong here. It's not a joke, it's not shitposting or schizos, if you actually give a shit about AAA garbage then you are a horrible piece of shit and need to be aggressively driven away.
>>736947296>talk about game>tangent about "tech" as if the thing that isn't violently apparent is that the actual tech to make fun and interesting games wasn't hit nearly 20 years agoYeah no the game you're talking about is shit.
>>736947296i wonder why this phenomenon is so prevalent, i don't remember it being this bad 6 or so years ago but maybe i just forgot
>>736947595internet is brownerpeople are angrierculture is more hostile
>>736947595I've always referred to it as 'drive by shitposting' because the poster clicks on a thread, leaves some bot-esque post, then fucks off to do it in a new thread. Could be bots, but it also could just be phone posting thirdies which is why those types of posts are less than 10 words usually.
whatever to that one anon who posted the “itt: post your favourite games” with moist or wet as the thumbnail every weekend or so? I thought those threads were pretty fun despite them getting fuck all attraction, that anon was nice too
>>736927787I just recently had some brazillian accuse me of being "the airforce anon" and I wish I even knew which poopdickschizo that is.
>>736947721>happened*whoops! Anyways did he die or something?
>>736947721I actually know that guy he took a break from posting for a bit, I miss ritualposting mace griffin in those threads
>>736947449You say that but the only time /v/ wakes up to talk about anything is when the new AAA releases. Usually in a negative way, but sometimes positive.
>>736947920>took a break from postingtell that nigger to come back soon, his sheer autism over that game was enough for me to keep an eye out for threads like his
>>736926117In the maybe dozen threads I've participated in within the last month, three had huge reply chains of people swearing they knew exactly who the other was and the worst part is it seems like they were both right.What are the stats looking like, jannies? Is it truly over? Just 50 of us circlejerking over playing our DS' in public.
>>736946181>The entire internet is an obtuse shithole filled with brash retards and bots nowAll the more reason to want this place to not suck cocks, no? Besides, most other websites' problems are WAY deeper-rooted and deal-breaking than /v/'s like Reddit's gay voting system/forced individual cultures, older forums' dying userbases and archaic rulesets, etc.>the only two reasons to prefer here over anywhere else is the funny nigger word and piss-easy ban evasion and thinking otherwise is unhealthy levels of self-delusionSpoken like a wet blanket who wasn't around for any prevalent storytime, OC, or out-of-pocket thread from the past few years. Hell we were trying to goad several people into grand larceny in Tomodachi Life threads a few days ago and that was a fucking riot, not that you'd know.
It talks a lot about how /v/ is dead when better gaming discussions are had in resetera.

>>736926605Holy retard see >>736926676
>>736948197If I can remember to bother him next time he's on perhapsBack to bed rotting for me
IMO the problem is you can't get jannies out of a community like this at a sustainable paceeven with the slow-ass ultra-screened process they use now we still see basket cases like the /pso2g/ guy or the one dude angle-shooting the shit out of /tg/ right now slip through the cracks, but if we pool from people off-site it risks homogenizing the site's culture into more mainstream internet drivelso what's the fix? more mods at a greater risk rate? AI jannies?
>>736948298I opened the monster hunter rise thread and I'm very confident it's the same core of 50 people including the guy screeching at the game posting with one or two newfags sprinkled in. It's been on repeat for close to 3 years now.I think they just make that thread to escape /vg/ but the problem is the content is also always the same
>>736947449>Then you genuinely don't belong hereI've been here since 2007, you retarded little nigger. You shitskin children are the ones that don't belong here.>>736947595More third worlders gaining access to the internet.

>>736949181Most of those old games that you keep calling great (but don't actually play because you're a retarded third world child who argues about games you don't play) were popular new games here as they came out. People who don't play games don't belong here, and they never have.
>>736948635I'd maybe be on long enough to do some work myself but I would burn out fast seeing just what kind of shit people are capable of, I don't comprehend how they can tolerate doing it for any extended period of time

>>736951726I'd be completely fine with /v/ being slower - we've had some decent threads the past few weeks that lasted a few days, and IMO the board is the perfect speed when threads can last 3-4 days of active discussion, /v/ got about 38k posts per day in 2008 for comparison - but the problem is that the quality is still abysmal. The shitheads and spammers aren't the ones leaving. The smaller hobby boards went from slow to dead and every other board is either below 2008 levels of traffic or very close to there.Fucking /b/ went from 120k posts per day when it was still a fun chaotic meme factory to 30k and it's literally just been terrible porn for the past DECADE.What scares me even more is that people don't seem to be going anywhere else. When the hack happened moe was the most populated alt and even that place only got like 20k posts per day TOTAL, across the entire fucking site, with most of it concentrated on vtuber shit.
>>736951538the trolls are self sustaining at this point
>>736951894The only threads I frequent on /vg/ are /horg/ (absolutely terrible shithole full of annoying waifu spammers but sometimes you find a neat obscure horror game), /eagg/ (literally East Asian Genocide General, aka Musou games, very high quality and full of /his/fags sperging over Chinese battles but it's super slow and frequently gets bumped off the board) and /rlg/ (abysmal, it's just whining about Cataclysm drama and occasional dick measuring over who can rape the newest roguelike the fastest). That board is literally 95% gacha spam.
>>736951894Idk how you can tolerate /vg/. Damn near every general is just a 4chan flavored discord server. And every general is on a timer before it gets taken over by thread personalities fighting each other to be king faggot.
>>736952054/vg/ is pretty shit too but they at least play the videogames the thread is about so it isn't always a lost cause unless it's some garbage mmo general. with /v/ i get the distinct feeling that the majority of posters don't even play vidya
>>736951918it's so over
>>736952141>/vg/ plays the videogamesDo you even know why generals are a banned type of thread and why there was a failed attempt to contain them to a forked board?
>>736952141>but they at least play the videogamesif you literally only browse /egg/ and /mmcg/ this is true
>>736926005I don't know how bad it is here but /co/ has been fucked like this for years.
>>736952571Every board is infested with schizos.
That guy you call "schizo"? That's the guy who's almost always right. There's shitposting, there's bait, but when you see like 3-5 butthurt replies saying "schizo" on something that a casual observer would call bullshit on you know it's true simply because the ether called upon him to. Especially if it goes against a popular counterpoint that's repeated like a mantra. I would cite my own personal examples, but I may be in the process of creating one at the moment.
>>736952320Someone please tell me how the fuck RapeApe has his job still.
>>736952847Not really.
>>736952571/co/ has become nu-tumblr and /tg/ is overrun with the modern D&D audience
>>736932114Really doesn't help than they hid public sageing and will actually ban YOU for announcing a sage or report. Why bother reporting some schizo when the bipolar tranny mod that receives the report might decide he doesn't like your post history and punishes you instead?
>>736952320/biz/ fucking cratered after the hackit was in decline already because crypto is dying but it got even worse because the janny over there is legit no fun allowed and killed the board culture so hard that people went to telegram and twitter instead
>>736926605>"LE ONE GUY LE SCHIZO"Holy shit this right here. I'm so tired of retards who keep saying this shit over every single fucking thing just because it disagrees with them. Or they accuse you of being some random schizo just because you made a thread on a game that someone else made 3 months ago, so they end up accusing you of spamming despite never making a thread on said topic or game. What drives people to make such stupid theories? There are more than 1 person on this website
>>736952847Eric won and had sex.
>>736926605Spot on
>>736941386>people actually fear the archivethis wouldn't be a problem if you were a normal person who didn't autistically spam the same post hundreds of times
>>736953179/tg/ is genuinely just reddit at this point. Every thread is dad gamers who just roll over and eat whatever garbage their corporate overlords shit onto their plate. You also have the fact that they just don't know how to converse like regular anons. Every post is just about concern trolling another anon into being confrontational followed by "woah bro its just a tabletop game man why u so srs?"You could be arguing about the most objective topics possible like 2+2=4 and somehow the guy you are arguing with will bring up how he is a happy father of 5 with 6 figures in the bank and you are a lonely incel child mad at a tabletop game. I've posted on a lot of boards but I've only ever seen this kind of posting behavior on /tg/.
>>736953430Probably because the hack revealed that the highest concentration of /biz/ posts came from, in order:- India- Banglaedesh- Sri Lanka- Pakistan- Malaysia- Indonesia
>>736953531>he is a happy father of 5 with 6 figures in the bankso in other words someone who has no business being there?
>>736953531>/tg/ anons just want to be our surrogate father figurest-that's so beautiful.. *sniff*
>>736927787>>736947778>You disagree with me so you must be [blank] schizoGood god that shit is so annoying.
>>736950880>”big popular games get discussion? It must be shilling too!”Meanwhile what other reason would you have to pull out a literal who title for a thread?>to talk about itWith who? No one’s heard of it
>>736952320/fit/ is my favorite.
>>736952002>/rlg/miss that shithole like you wouldn't believe, but I dread going back.>>736953805do NOT look up /cgl/
>>736953805/fit/ died way before then back when /r9k/ broke containment, went mainstream, and then all the looksmaxxing blackpilled faggots that don't life invaded.
>>736953805How. Where the fuck did almost 25k posters go?
>>736927787I have the misfortune to have been shown a screencap demonstrating that sharts literally have a wiki suggesting how to disrupt threads, ban evade, etc., but it doesn't really explain the frequency of it to me. Doesn't really feel like there's any recourse from it, regardless of the source.
>>736951557At least /v/ calls out slop. /a/ on the other hand will defend it
>>736953967>At least /v/ calls out slopThe ones screams slop at everything are the retarded third worlders.
>>736953904it is a mystery
>>736954012So uh, what's Hiro's plan here? Letting RapeApe run things clearly isn't fucking working.
>>736953406Uh, yeah, sage isn't a downvote, neither is reporting a thread.Do you go into public games and if someone you don't like is in there you literally scream as loud as you can over voicechat until everyone leaves?
>>736954008Learn how to speak english before posting, monkey.

>>736926605Actual embodiment of pic rel
>>736951538the baskin roberts spammer on /tv/ has been replying to his own threads for years now.
I can't phantom why they got rid of the IP counter
/v/ hasn't been good in a very long time.>>736954264Akira sticky broke aspects of the site.
>>736954113That's was a typo, yes. But what I said stands. The ones excited about screaming slop at everything are third world monkies. There has never been a single post made that used the word "slop" in earnest that wasn't made by a fucking retard.
>>736954264So paid advertisers could spam boards and mimic discussion in shill threads without physical evidence or any pesky anons calling them out on it.
>>736954264The sweet baby inc fags got the department of defense to threaten the retards running the site because they were samefagging too obviously, and it did nothing to actually stop people from realizing they were here.
>>736926175>>736926005Stop being such whiny babies, you're the problem
>>736954105Yes.
>>736952002Seriously- fucking seriously- why the fuck is the radioactive slurry of gacha trash allowed on /vg/?
>>736955031because gacha isn't allowed on /v/, except when it is.
>>736955031/vmg/ was made to contain them but moderation is so bad that whatever mod was put in charge of the board banned people for migrating the generals. There are generals on /vmg/ but only ones that the mods personally allow while the rest are kept on /vg/.
>>736951154Crazy idea: it's an unholy coagulation of incompetence and malice.
>>736955031why not
If this place sucks so much, why not just leave?
>>736955891Shit is way too fast, most games can't keep up with the flood of incomprehensible shitposting gacha garners/vmg/ would've been a fine home for it, but lol lmao
>>736926061Exhibit A
>>736926605>>736931669>>736939648You make fun of it, but when you spend enough time in a niche thread, and there is one single maladjusted person who has been bullied off of every other website on the internet and makes their home in that thread and shits it up, it's super obvious. If you don't know a single POOPDICKSCHIZO or Jimblo, you are lucky enough to not spend enough time on here or don't have autistic pattern recognition skills.
>>736956251... where
>>736956423For every actual ACfag, there are a dozen retarded faggots too excited about insisting everyone arguing with them is the same guy.
>>736926005>>736926175Never happened to me, have you guys considered that you may just like games that attract schizos? Or is a schizo a label you put on everyone who disagrees with you? It's quite a reddit buzzword so I wouldn't be surprised.
>>736956268>Shit is way too fast, most games can't keep up with the flood of incomprehensible shitposting gacha garnerswut, /vg/ has around 2~7 threads per hour at bestit takes like 4 hours hours without a post for a /vg/ general to get knocked off page 10if your general can't get a single post in 4 hours it's 100% just being kept alive by one guy bumping it
>>736956268>Shit is way too fast/v/ has a thread time limit of 3+ days./vg/ has a thread time limit of 30+ days./vm/ has a thread time limit of 3+ years.
>>736926175Also, for example, those dedicated schizos become so notorious that GOD FORBID you happen to share the same opinion in some aspects because then some retard just calls you that schizos name. I've said before that I enjoyed FFXV for what it was and like clockwork some faggot calls me Barry
>>736935271Mods hate this site and it's userbase, it's been known for a while that they are trying to run it to the ground
>>736926005every game on /v/ nowadays has at least one schizo who is dedicated to shitting up every thread on it its bizarre
>Try to discuss Marathon on /v/ >Steam chart gets posted within 20 seconds of the thread being created
>threads about specific game have a schizo finding it in like 30 minutes every time>make my own thread about it>they take like 9 hours to find it or don't find it at allisn't that just wacky
>>736957869You have a troon janny hanging out in your threads deleting any form of negativity towards the game no matter what and then filing ban requests to keep people anyone who dislikes the game silenced for 15 minutes. You can discuss it as freely as you want, doesn't make it not shit and a dying game.
>>736958480any post that randomly brings up trannies for no reason is an automatic disregard for me
>>736957869Why do you wanna discuss marathon of all things? There’s literal thousands of better games worth discussing>>736958593Doesn’t make him any less wrong, but whatever you can to ignore him I guess
>>736958593Not my fault that most of the jannies on this board identify as.
>>736958671Are the trannies in the room with us right now?
>>736926005Fallout 3?
>>736958718No not currently, my post hasnt got pruned yet.

>>736959498Post your oldest image then nigger.
>>736959378Wasn't /pol/ an Epstein operation to sow division?
If only it were that easy
>>736959629Um sweetie, that's a debunked conspiracy theory.
>>736946181Then leave us to our site you dumb newnigger.Why are there so many of you newfags that have started coming in here with this >Wow you fucking nerds really care this much?About FUCKING EVERYTHINGBECAUSE YOU HAVE NOTHING TO CARE FORNO CULTURENO HISTORYNO PASTAND NO FUTUREThat is why you see nothing wrong with shitting right where you eat. You dumb fucking niggerfaggot.
>>736946813>We can't fix things, we forgot how.Gookmoot couldn't give half a dick to care about fixing this site. He may have at the beginning. I remember the whole loli fiasco part 2 boogaloo on /a/ back when the transition first happened. Gookmoot made a public poast apologizing about the bans and that loli was allowed on /a/. But shit that was fucking 10 God damn years ago. The man has clearly given up since then.Only a real nigga that actually wants to post about dumb shit with a bunch of other dumb nerds could run this site. Just like Moot did.
Im not complaining but im surprised this thread hasn't gotten deleted yet
>>736936228Earlier this year I got a perma for posting a gif on /gif/ that I saved from /gif/ years ago and had since been flagged. I appealed saying I was completely ignorant that the content was unacceptable and was both contrite and willing to wholly abstain from posting on such boards in the future. They downgraded it to a one month ban and I've been fine since then.
>>736928064>>736926676He didn't have a response to this kek
>>736949319Newnigger browns can go post on rebbit
>>736953771I'M SORRY AM I SUPPOSED TO WAIT FOR THE APPROVED AMOUNT OF ANONS TO MENTION A GAME BEFORE I CAN?FUCK YOU
Here's the truth about IDs. IDs definitely hurt the low tier schizos who shit up threads with samefaggotry, but to high tier schizos, who obsessively stalk people on 4chan, IDs are a gold mine.It's not worth it.
>>736960509This, unfortunately the most powerful schizos adapt and learn to any measures. Only range bans can stop them.
>>736953805Fuck man /fit/ was one of my secondary boards for awhile when I mulled about trying to stop being a skinnyfat faget. They had some of the funniest fucking memes I've ever witnessed.
>get into Wuthering waves>figure to make a thread on v>oh there’s a thread up>tripfag op>there’s a thread every day>by the same guy>its some Philippino dude who runs hentai stuff they kicked out of vg Cool.
where am i supposed to go..all the soul of 4chan has left me behind..
Cant discuss:OG CoD because of modern CoDXenosaga because of Xenoblade and basic bitchesMass Effect 3 because MUH ENDING cry baby group thinkersAssassin's creed relics of eden sub plot because basic bitches just want to kill shit
>>736948635Ive been here since 08 i might as well throw my dick into the ring for a bit
>>736960639Didn't gacha as a whole get ultra banned from /v/ recently?
>>736951154I mean the meme about pizza/porn threads staying up cause the mod was busy fapping became a meme for a reason
>>736936102One of the mods was a jeet.Got banned a few times for shitposting.
>>736943681/pol/faggots are unironically losing it because orange faggot is ruining North Ame*ica, so now they have to shit up literally every other board.
>>736960835This shit is as old as the site itself.
>>736953531No fucking way that's true anon. You're fucking lying. I never really lurked the board but I remember reading a lot of entries on 1d4chan way back when.
>>736960639Shin? Yea that dude is cancer
>>736961073>I remember reading a lot of entries on 1d4chan way back when.Yeah you read stuff from an eon ago, shits changed.
>>736960963If moot curbed /pol/ ages ago the site and internet as a whole would've never declined
>>736960963>/pol/ traffic sharply increases overnight and the board becomes the most popular board on the website>traffic on hobby boards starts mysteriously dying out afterwardswow i wonder why people started leaving. these two things are just a coincidence dont think about it

>>736951239That's the exception, not the rule.

>>736961316>/a/ below /tv/It's so over.
>>736936048LITERALLY jews did this
>>736959720He's right, you need to touch grass
>>736961316what site are you using to display these metrics?
I have never seen a poopdickschizo win anything. I have never seen one opinion shifted, one meme cemented, one take made manifest. I know these people are derranged and are unable to formulate cost benefit of their actions, but still.
>>736961981A poop schizo needs to win every time to succeed and theyre only mortal, so long as there's a will to discuss something. They're powerless
>>736961316reminder moot met with epstein right before creating /pol/it's all part of their plan
Some /vg/ schizos are actually impressive.They keep repeating the same shit over and over, always posting the same inane mental illness hallucinations, every single fucking thread, no one gives a shit, they continue to post it for YEARS the exact same fucking posts.It's like they are completely obsessed with it, they have absolutely nothing better to do than make those posts, like they are on a religious mission or something.
>>736962342you're a faggot
Why does the modern left pretend to be anti-Nazi and then in the same post hate brown people? Are they stupid or what?
>>736961621if moot was here to hear this he'd be very sad, anon
>>736961273The internet was ruined by SJWs and normies
>>736962565He was a faggot
I completely gave up on even checking stardew threads because of this.The same 3 or 4 cabal of pedophiles will swarm to it and spam the thread with pedoshit until it gets deleted, and if people start pushing back, they post actual cheese pizza.
>>736953919Genuinely what is the end goal here. Stop discussing and consume?
>>736962565No he's right, /jp/ sucks in the present day, present time. It's all vtuber shit and whatever else, literally everything but Touhou and older otaku culture just like how /mu/ is now nothing but Kpop.
It sounds like you guys are snowflakes
>>736962705Touhou sucks too

>>736946813Yes. You're the one saying I have to do something. Do the work for me.
>>736961807You mean you do.
>>736962357I saw one that was so dedicated he went onto 4+4 during the hack and kept resetting his router even though everyone knew he was samefagging. Also spammed the Feedback page so much that a moderator wanted to implement text telling him to get a life. No actual damage done though and he even posts on this board, it doesn't matter the board, just the topic.
>>736962926I went to /jp/ to see what you were talking about and there are only two active vtubers threads, you're being overly dramatic
>>736963310Now sort by PPM.
>>736963156Okay, I have to do it too. But you and he should do it, and urgently.
>>736926175the key to 4chan is to discuss topics on unrelated boards, like books on /v/ or /tv/, games on /x/ or /fit/, fitness in /sp/ and so on.i always find the most civil, entertaining and a lot of time insightful commentary in threads like that.jannies usually shut it down quickly, but when it happens it's the best
>>736963347There are still only two of them.
>>736962357Prove that those posters are bots.
>>736962357If I had their powers I would've done something positive with it. It's such a waste.
>>736963414I guess so, but this is why /v/ sucks these days. Everyone wants to talk about everything except video games here.
>>736963049They are two sides of the same coin
>>736962673Those 4 guys are all in a Discord together.
>>736926676They're mad because you're right btw.
So whats the deal with the cult-like behavior in almost everything we consume lately?
>>736926605This
>>736963472>>736963461>>736962673You don't know how easy this is to do; there is nothing that requires so little effort for maximum effect.
>>736962983>heh, let me formulate an exquisite counter argument to a Malaysian with 89 IQ who spams CoD Points when people say Modern Warfare 2 was worse than Modern warfare 3
>>736961316Jesus /pol/ really was a mistake
>>736963472Never too late to learn how to bot. Pretty easy. The only requirement is a credit card.
Ill be honest with you, I don't think we're gonna last to 2028
>>736926175Has nothing to do with being anonymous. It's literally crazy people that should be locked up or put down for the better good of society. So fucking strange how we just accepted that lunatics should be allowed outside and to air their schizobabble to everyone over the internet.
Where did everyone go after the hack?
>>736963603>The codfag can't even argue with a retarded monkeyI see that your fandom's reputation is well deserved.

>>736926005>that's just ROID bro>Dash dancing isn't cringe
>>736963671He's saying it's a waste of time arguing with a money.
>>736963657>People should be pressured if they dare to argue with me!!!
>>736963749No. Crazies should be locked up, killed or shunned like they were decades ago.
>>736963707Yes, money is used to buy things, not to argue about which COD is better.
>>736963797Oh so you're intentionally being obtuse. Ok. good show.

>>736926175>It’s what happens when you give narcissists free range to be “anonymous” on an Internet forum with 0 consequences because they can always just ban evadeIt didn't used to be this way, it got bad somewhere between 2012 and 2015. And it's not just here, it's ever single major website. Being anonymous changes nothing althogh AIs at least prevent samefagging.Could be the rise of trannies, could be the rise of internet 3rd worlders, could be just like schitzo's say and be the CIA preventing any comunity from building an identity after Occupy Wallstreet. Hell, maybe it's a combination of all three.Either way, the on'y places you can avoid this shit is in slow micro communities.
>>736926005nice
>catalog doesn't refresh but you can post in threads huh
>>736963913>AIs at leastIDs, I mean
>>736945518Because schizos infest all of the threads, and they come to the ones that I create. I just wanna talk about Nintendo games without being called Eric.
>Noooo leave my hugbox alone!No
>>736963927good
>>736941713You can't even discuss it in MMO or online game threads the moment thread shifts to talking about XIV it gets nuked

>>736964154Yeah
>>736963927Use index like a real oldfag
>>736964165Lol isn't this the anniversary of the last hack? I thought they were gonna pull it again.

>>736964119What to fuck, Kamikaze?
>>736964181Oldfags are pathetic; they hate when people have different opinions than them and think that everyone who doesn't suck up to them should be killed.
>>736964206Liking cats is so old, there are no more cat memes.
I honestly wished the site just stayed dead after last years hack
>>736964181Perhaps you're right, it's still slow. Also, I should add that this comment>>736964228 wasn't for you.
How do you kill a serial 4chan stalker who tracks you through the archives?
>>736926005Final Fantasy
>>736964303The hack taught me that the internet needs /v/, everyone else on the internet is mindless consumerism.
>>736964320Quit with retarded ritual posting?
>>736964343To be fair, it's been about twenty years since the series became mediocre.
>>736964351>Im-fucking-plying this place is any different at all
>>736953531>Every thread is dad gamers who just roll over and eat whatever garbage their corporate overlords shit onto their platethis is like half of /v/ now too lmao
>>736963913A big difference between then and now is then people usually talked about things, now people usually talk about talking about things. Most of the discource now consists of orbiting subjects rather than whatever topic may be, in case of videogames it's sales, influencers, company politiks etc. In other words, it's just empty gossip. And the problem with gossip is that it tends to draw in the types with a lot of opinions they are desperate to share. And there you have it, a legion of idiots throwing their opinions into the writhing mass of mediasphere for no reason in particular, just wishing to be heard.
>>736964416Yes, you don't remember what happened last year.
>>736964516You're a tourist, that's the Shill vs. 4chan war.
Every time they call me a schizo, it always turns out I was right.
>>736964265>there are no more cat memes.
>>736953531With the shit kind of games coming out these days idk what you'd expect. It's like going in a sewer and expecting things to be down there that don't eat shit to sustain themselves.
>>736964770Compared to fifteen years ago? Yeah, dead meme
>>736926005I'm a heccin centrist on this one>I like gatekeeping; 4chan has always been pro-gatekeeping and "git gud"; only normies and nu-chan posters want to do away with this and make it "inclusive" hugbox because they are gay>I dislike angry /pol/ posters. Most of them are post-2016 tourists and they're also typically failed normie phonefags. You can't sillypost because they are hyper-credulous and take everything at face value. So easy to bait that it isn't worth it. Seething zoomie dorks who hate themselves and hate the world makes for a very lame time on 4chan>troons and assorted libshits are disingenuous rats and obsessed with either controlling communities or ruining them out of spite if they can't control them. A lot of bitter freaks.Gatekeeping is good, funposting is good, /pol/ and gayops lefties are cringe. Nu-chan is shit.
>>736965120>4chan has always been pro-gatekeeping Considering that you don't even need to create an account to use this place, I'd say that's not true.
>>736965246In ethos, obviously.
>>736965120/pol/ infecting /v/ is bad but at the same time /pol/ infected video games so it was kind of inevitable that a place with no censorship would talk about the politics of a politicized field. I just wish the mods would ban spiteful retards who only do drive-by posts that are equal to "you are mad because you are a chud" "you are defending this because you are trans" etc.
