Why is /v/ so fucking slow now?
Mods let the site rot and now everyone is starting to fuck off to greener pastures.
That's an improvement in my opinion.
i got banned
Board boring,the same 3 people samefagging and spamming the same threads and the jannies doing nothing about it,Board boring
>>743122648>greener pasturesno such thing>inb4 real life
Let's be honest, there are are a lot of threads that are not of the highest quality (I will not name any)Factor in people moving on from video games, moving on from this website, and the state of AAA gaming right now, and you have less people interested in using /v/
>>743122648There is no greener pasture, people are just abandoning the internet period because it's a shithole overrun by corporations, normalfags and morons.
>>743122537Steam charts threads killed it
>>743122537Twitter took a lot of the audience
>clear browser history = get slapped with an honorary perma range banRapeape wants the site dead
>>743122537The brownoids are all watching the World Cup right now, and they have to choose between using their phone to watch, or using their phone to shitpost
>>743122791Also i forgot to mention when interesting threads get randomly sent to the 404 zone for no reason.
AI chatbots have removed 4chan's use case for a lot of people
>>743122537>Why is /v/ so fucking slow now?Demoralize your enemies until they abandon their social places.
>>743122537i pwned the browncels so bad they all closed the tabs on their computer to cry
>>743122537Sorry anon, I got a job, and it SUCKS but it won't let me be on my phone at all
So 4chan has been heavily intensifying its data collection efforts over the years - Hence the cancer captcha system. The site is getting worse by the day, objectively speaking and people aee fucking off.
>>743122928That's what you get for being a dumb butt hurt shitposter, buster!>b-b-but it's not my fault!Yes it is!
>>743122537Retards get filtered by the wait times, and /pol/faggot tourists finally fucked off back to twitter since they can act like attention whores while getting paid for it. It's going back to normal speed.
>>743122537Mentally ill browns with their own schizo agendas ritualposting the same threads day in and day out or ruining other people's threads.
>>743122648>greener pasturesWhere would those be? Every other chan site is even deader, surprised there isn't more demand
>make a joke about something that happens in the game being discussed>get banned for offtopic/trolling because tranny janny has quota to fill or just has aspergers and takes it 100% seriously>dont feel like posting anymore
>>743123534Twitter. Just use a burner email and come up with a username.
>>743122537Because this website has been on the decline for a verry long time. It's taken blow after blow without and kind of serious intervention or attempt at recovery.It's currently infested with third worlders of all variety who treat every single board as a pseduo-porn board.The janitors are completely neutered, dull and lifeless who prune interesting/amusing shit in favor of having the 10 millionth gacha/not-porn/twitter/outrage threadEffort posting is completely shunned and ignored now, conversations never last beyond a single post or two, and you get 50 replies to very obvious bait and faggy shitBasically it's eternal summer. Everyone who uses this website is a newfag forever now, because 75% of the population only started using 4chan in the last 5-10 years, and now 4chan has no culture anymore. No funny raids. No vidya tournaments. No influencing, no more meetups. Just a bunch of really sad, lonely people who are unironic incels/nazis/pedos.This thread will get deleted too because the 1 thing the jannies hate more than anything is any thread calling out the dogshit state of this website in an attempt to diagnose the problem
>>743122537I'm a raging furfag Since most devs cater to nonfurfags, or pic related, I'm not really interested in discussiom 'round these parts
>>743123596I've been banned more post hack than my 15 something years posting prior. Idk why moderation has gotten so much fucking worse since last year.
>>743122537the covid tourists fucked off to social media and discord but too many actual schizophrenics remain.
>>743122537Everyone is busy playing Asscreed Black Flag Resynced
You can't even say the N or J word anymore without risking getting a banned.
>>743122537Board turned into /b/ but trying to make everything disguised as vidya.Actual vidya discussion is shitposted on to oblivion and back to make way for /e/, off topic, twitter screencaps and political shit.Everyone went to /vg/ since that's that only place you can actually have a discussion anymore.
We’re too busy banging your mom
>>743122537Intelligence agencies identified 4chan as one of the social media sites they had to subvert and/or destroy.
>>743123596>dont feel like posting anymoreI wish more people didn't feel like posting. The board is full of threads and posts that I didn't make. People who think /v/ is slow must have legitimate ADHD, because to me, it still looks like a toilet being sprayed with diarrhoea. This is my only post in the thread, by the way. Also the only thread I have open.
>>743122537>this is what he considers to be slowmaybe tiktok is more your speed you fucking underage retard
>>743122537Theres no good games. Playing old shit got boring. Now I just talk to AI bots on silly tavern
>>743123978some of the schizos that ruin threads definitely seem like they might be glowniggers.
>>743122537>phone post at home just before going out>post once when out of the house on my phones data>come back home and phone reconnects to WiFi >try to post >"your IP has been temporarily blocked due to abuse"the fuck
>>743122537It's Saturday but feels like a weekday here. No interesting threads at all. Just the usual baits and very obvious zoomer-coded posts with recency bias.
>1% of posters make the majority of threads>this is tolerable when /v/ is fast by sliding shit threads fast>posters start leaving>the 1% are still here, still making the same threads 24/7/365>except those threads take hours to archive
>>743122537Maybe if y’all stopped calling threads you don’t like “generals” and chasing folks away it wouldn’t be like this.
the last time I had fun with /v/ was around the time Mario Royale and SCPSL were the FOTMs but then their threads started getting deleted/autosaged for whatever gay reason despite only being around for a couple weeksso no fun allowed, only state-approved content, posting is a privilege, etc. etc. the mods did this to themselves and they deserve to fade into dust with the rot they've helped cultivate
i ban evade all the time. get fucked janny retards
>>743122537New games are shit and not worth talking about. Old games have been discussed to death. Niche games get 2 replies and then archive because no one here plays them.
>>743123923I can tell you're new, /v/ has always been off topic.
>>743122537Unironically zoomers and bots ruined this site. There was actually something resembling game discussion here pre-2018, but not it’s just endless goon bait, rage bait, and shit posting by people who don’t even play games or bots spamming data mining and engagement threads. What’s sad is I can’t even tell the difference between zoomers and bots now when they post online, they both have the same pre canned, safe-edgy takes.
>>743124541You're too cool for school
>>743124541Next thing you know, you're going to get IP range banned permanently and that's when you'll cry in 4chan because you think that anyone here will support you emotionally, you butt hurt cretin!Don't forget! You're here FOREVER!
Imagine being such a faggot that you want to "discuss vidya" without mentioning how gay, Jewish, and shitty games are and have been for over a decade now.
>>743124330I would never make a thread; I only do that when I'm in good company. I think the last thread I made was years ago on /tv/, and I left that place, so that's how good it is now. Making a thread would be like opening a business in a poor neighbourhood. If the neighbourhood has crazy niggers, why would you be exempt from their presence? You wouldn't, and they would visit if they wanted to. >>743124413>chasing folks awayWhy are you sad if you're chased away? Go to Reddit and see if they chase you away. You're crying about being chased from a prison.
>>743122537It takes five minutes of waiting to post, but if you look away while waiting oops you timed out gotta wait again. This shithole was barely worth it when it was free.
>>743122537The actual answer is that ever since Musk took over Twitter and increased free speech on there some, there's less reason for the "election tourists" to stay here and now the site is dead. I wish old school kino would come back as a replacement, but instead it just seems like it's mostly unfunny shitposters and third worlders left. And now a bunch of gays larping as femboys for some reason.
>>743124838How can we be here forever if they ban ip range and all t mobile networks
4chan needs to filter the word "tranime", only tourists use that word and they need to get back to twitter.
>>743122537I imagine most people started posting less when the new captcha was introduced.
>>743124917Nice try gachafaggot
>>743122537>Why is /v/ so fucking slow now?Moderation staff gives literally zero fucks about the site, and their high time preference makes them unable to foresee the longterm consequences of not banning the most active shitposters because it would cause a momentary hit in engagement. So the site is dying, because the more functional people leave, the larger the proportion of severe mental illness, and the larger the proportion of severe mental illness, the more people leave as discussion of any topic grows increasingly impossible. The patients are running the asylum, and all that's left is to wait for the site to die.Fitting, I guess.
>>743124890either newfag or retarded>>743124929new captchas are easier, making threads has never been easier since the captcha was first introduced.>>743124996unironically kill yourself autist
>>743124913WOMM!My smartphone is using a Metro By T-Mobile line!
>>743125040You could simply sum it up by saying;Tranny Jannies don't ban their tranny friends.
>>743122537They should just merge /vg/ and /v/ and just let everyone talk about gacha now. Snoy's biggest exclusive is 45 year old wine aunt God of Soi. Its over for gaming
>>743122537the furfags won and this is the natural consequence
>>743125123>Tranny Jannies don't ban their tranny friends.The hack revealed that the jannies, for better or worse, DO try to do their job, but they have zero actual power (or pay) and the mods literally could not give less of a fuck about site quality.
>>743125178This site is a Mossad honeypot, there never was a concern about "quality"
>>743122537Site moderation, image boards becoming obsolete, and more engaging options.
>get banned for off topic shit>see tons of other threads/posts that are the same off topic nonsense but they don't get deleted pr banned
we lost, the epstein case raised an awareness to the younger gens that this place simply a dogshit gayops orchestrated by fossil fuel addicted evangelical rightoids that want to destroy the planet because... the RAPTURE NIGGAS; THE RAPTUREhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75ehG6utzBMIt's... just... over...
>>743125238It's been a honeypot for longer than it hasn't at this point, and it's obvious that site quality has declined sharply even when compared to the election tourist surge (who've been here for a decade at this point)
>>743125325How many layers of /pol/ psychosis is this Anon on?
>>743124110
>>743125325>It's all the crazy Christian's fault!Look up Noahide laws
Either allow e-celeb threads or delete ALL e-celeb threads, don't just allow vinny, asmon and oney threadsDon't babysit certain companies like Valve Delete fucking AI shit like the claude generalDon't ban people for saying nigger or jeet
>>743123923>Board turned into /b/ but trying to make everything disguised as vidya...15 years ago
>>743125376Boy... are you gonna enjoy the next 25 years on this Earth that got raped into insanity since the industrial revolutionPray you live outside rural places - otherwise, you're gonna suffer greatly
>>743122537More and more people are realizing this place has little to no value anymore.
>>743122537Because of posters (or bots) like this one, OP >>743125325.
>>743125376He's Dante now.
>>743125521Pro oil company (likely Shell) propagandist spotted
A gooner board, aka gacha generals getting banned on sight would fix it
>>743125585And gacha is bad how?
>>743122791>the same 3 people samefagging and spamming the same threads and the jannies doing nothing about itI come here, see six fucking final fantasy threads and just leave.There are groups intentionally trying to shit up free speech platforms like that though, so they can make Digital ID something people actually want.
>>743122791I love seeing the same daily Outer Wilds shill thread with the exact same type of replies every other day!
>>743122537i have moved back to the states, but while i was in korea the entire region was rangebanned from posting unless you bought a 4chan pass. i didn't post for a year myself, i wonder how common that is in other countries
>>743125928And the Jews want you to believe North Korea is the bad one lmao.
>>743124747t.Election Tourist
>>743124929Absofuckinglutely this. The captcha system is absolute cancer. Been posting in this cesspit for a depressing amount of years, not even shit posting, but the hoops I've got to jump through now isn't worth it. Ive had to do a captcha to get an email to do a captcha to make a post which then requires another captcha. Its fucked.
>>743122537the newest captchas are gnarly, it took me 7 emails just to get one that didn't end up with an expired link
>>743126153Very nice of you to project.
>>743122537Indians, euroniggers, ausfaggots are melting due to the heat while americans with their acs are on playing video games instead of shitposting on this faggot tier chinese taiwanese website
the median doesn't get slower, you just get more comfortable tolerating retards.
>>743123436Why isn't the quality going back to normal?
>>743122537all /v/ does is now>whine about new games>whine about old games>whine about zoomers>whine about boomers>whine about what someone said on twitter>whine about what someone said on youtube>whine about what someone said on bluesky>whine about what someone said on tiktok>whine about what someone said on 9gag>whine about what someone said on funnyjunk>whine about what someone said on ebaumsworld
>>743126649"zoomers and boomers"??? ok grandpa, use your 100 year old outdated terminology
>>743126728kill yourself retard
>>743126649>whine about what someone said on funnyjunk>whine about what someone said on ebaumsworldI think these would actually be funny threads
>>743122791ritualposters, avatarfags, gachaniggers, deltatroons, e-celeb worshipper, twitter threads are all allowed to spam the catalog but the moment I make some slightly off topic thread which IS about videogames it gets deleted. Total 4chan dead, the only way is down. Just look at other boards, even /pol/ is slow as fuck and threads are surviving a day with 200 replies.
>>743122537the shitty new captcha is really annoying
>>743126753That was such a fast reply, you clearly have nothing going on right now. I replied fast too, but only because of how fast YOU replied, presenting me with a comment to reply to. Now please quit distracting me retard, I'm busy.
>>743124175Same hereWtf is this
Has anyone noticed an uptick in literal faggot generals? The whole vidya male or male furfaggot shit?Why are they doing that?
>>743123534greener pastures = small niche group of people actually interested in the topic at hand, who have nothing to gain, but the benefit of conversation about that subject. No upvotes or yous or farming threads for twitter posts or gaining followers,

>>743122537Well sorry for being so fucking slow
>>743123635
>>743123978someone post the epstein-moot emails
>>743123635>TWITTER IS...LE BASED!Why the fuck do you refuse to leave this place then, retard?
>>743123534RW xitter and TPOT
>>743126848The trannies killed themselves, so the ones who just stayed gay took the reigns.
>>743122537Niche communities are making a return. People are becoming less interested in these centralized shitholes where only the current popular thing gets talked about.
>>743122537Everyone's moved onto Twitter. All this board is used for nowdays is making bait threads, screencapping them and putting them on twitter.
>>743127012twitter is full of 4chan refugees
>>743125325Yes, it's over for us chuddies, but at the very least we pleased our shareholders!!
>>743127052I got a better questionWhy are you such a retarded nigger
poopey poopi yummy yum yum creamy gooey nummies ahahhahaha poop pooop
>>743127163YOU CAN'T HATE BOTH XITTER IS BASED AND TRAD ACTUALLY AND JUST LIKE 4CHAN
>>743127052There is this thing browsers have called a 'tab'. You can have multiple of these open at the same time letting you browse multiple sites.
>>743123635Twitter is entirely driven by a monetization incentive, you can't have real conversations with anyone there when their number one priority is getting as much engagement as possible. We have that for ragebait threads here but the posters aren't getting paid for it so you could say they do it for the love of the game and not for the love of money
>>743127269I love eating poop unironically also I love my switch
>>743127281Mindbroken
hi
>>743127363Yes, X haters are mindbroken. Please follow my 12 follower trad account so I can have 13.
We're dying...
Just let people enjoy things
>>743127269>>743127348You boys are so silly! :3
>>743122537The real answer is that the redone captcha system pissed a ton of people off so a lot stopped attempting to post here and even if you manage to the mods have been acting extremely strict with the "image" aspect of 4chan being an imageboard on /v/ and dish out bans if your image is not video game related which has people approach the board as SRSBSNS and turns the audience away who like to discuss a character trait and pivot into a discussion about an out there topic like slave rape or animal behaviorMostly the captcha though.
>>743122537When was the last time anybody here has been able to get an actual non meme discussion going without getting called brown or buzzword of the week
>>743127269I do this lol
>>7431225374chan's posting rate peaked in 2021 and has been in decline ever since. There's no new people coming in anymore and eventually this place will just be the same autists ritually screaming at each other with the same culture war threads and pseudo-generals over and over until this place costs more money than it's worth to keep the lights on.
>>743122537Captcha filtered everyone but the most dedicated schizos
The captchas are too tedious for people+one of the largest residential proxies recently got shut down by the feds(if you know you know)
>>743127462now remove the shills and bots and realize how bad it really is
>>743127531It's a handful of shartyschizos who do this despite/qa/ gone for good, they always come to raid threads with 1-3 people to derail them, people need to learn to ignore those fatherless bastards instead of engaging them
>>743122537the captcha filters out posters + tiktok & twitter are taking the young blood, the average age here is probably pushing 30 right now. and you can be racist all you want on other platforms. theres really no need for this place anymore
>>743127519I can post Bridget just fine though.
>>743122537I moved out and my ISP changed so now I have to solve the normal captchas and it's kind of fucking retarded, not even hard just a waste of time. I was even considering the email verification on a burner I have, but the captcha there was genuinely impossible. This is after many moved to Shitter and quality threads are being shit up by schizos even harder than they were in 2024. During the move I was on mobile, and let me tell you, there were TONS of banned IPs I ran into. They're almost all from 2025-now, because there were certain sites allowing for maximum shitposting and ban evading is what those retards do. I've had to reset my router a few times even. Even the newfags that come in tend to be from Shitter, or they're just trying to bait because they came to Sharty after hearing about unfunny memes. I hate it.
be honest how many of you niggers moaning about the craptcha are phoneposters?
>>743123635Why would I go to a bot-filled attention whore shithole that requires an account?
>>743127880i post on pc and the captcha will not let any of my burner emails verify for whatever reason
>>743127880I don't have the captchas on my phone, I get them on my PC because cookie fuckery.
>fuggen shardee
>>743127810shartyfags are on a level of schizophrenia I seriously can't comprehend
>>743122537Because this is a porn board now.
>>743127880I never get captchas on my computer or on my phone lol.
No one wants to visit a site where all anyone ever does is yell about indians and trannies. That's what this board is now.
>>743127880Captchas take less time on my phone

you probably should have listened to the people telling you that constant coomer threads were ruining the quality of the boardoh well, too late now
>Every single topic of even moderate popularity has some kind of crazy schizo that derails the thread, often with them being known for several years>At best they get a three day ban slap on the wrist, at worst they're never banned whatsoever>Can no longer talk about almost anything on /v/ without your thread being obliterated by some nutter whackjob looney that growls the board looking to shit up his topic of choice>The same is increasingly true on nearly every board nowGee, I wonder why people are leaving 4chan
>>743126958This has happened to my just by having a dynamic IP. I don't even use /b/ and I only use /gif/ for my fetish, what the fuck is going on over there.
>>743128083True, that's just Twitter.
