Idk how you can look at the state of /v/ right now and assume it's being shilled, am I the only one with eyes who notices all the spam about this game is people hating it? Is "all the spam is shilling" just a cope by the same people who all wanna convince themselves they're not the problem?

Why can't you fags contain your autism to 1 or 2 threads? We don't need several dozen separate threads on separate topics for 1 game. They literally come off like Twitter "I have an opinion" posts than actual threads. Shit's beyond annoying.

I propose a rule that, if /v/ wants to be a shit board where no discussion of a game is permitted unless it's during the period where it's new/being hyped up, then during that period you should ONLY be able to make threads about the game with the title of the game in the subject, clearly, correctly and coherently
Wanna spam the catalog? Fine, but we should be able to filter it

It has been proven time and time again, however, that you don't even need to play a video game, know much about it, or even watch its trailers. That's why /v/ has the highest number of twitter threads on the board.

Its been an issue since the /vg/ split. This isn't new.
The fundamental problem with saying 'no generals on /v/' is that the moderation is fucking retarded and has no clue what is or isn't a general, and has zero respect for board culture.
The moment they started deleting LOL threads on sight was unironically the beginning of the end.
Even in the OP, you're talking about horse gacha threads 'dying', but they aren't. There's just some insane moderator who deletes them on sight and demands they all move to /vg/, same shit that happens with xiv threads. If you demand users only talk about what you personally approve of, its inevitable that there's a ton of dogshit.
Also frankly DALL-E threads belong in /g/, its insane that they've been allowed a permanent space on the board for fucking years, while drawfag request threads are delete on sight.

You have never opened those threads. Horse threads are 70% gameplay discussion, 30% art. XIV threads are shitshow but that's because XIV is in a terrible spot right now, and those threads have been getting deleted since 2016, which was a period where EVERY thread about the game on /v/ was predominantly gameplay oriented.
/vg/ as a whole should not exist. All it has done is banish games from ever being discussed on /v/ and created, functionally, discords for insane schizophrenics to passively breed in. There is, quite literally, not a single usable thread on that board. It is almost entirely ERP and posting softcore porn. If you want to TALK about the VIDEO GAME, /vg/ is a fucking cesspit. I would rather catch a sneaky thread on /v/ before the jannies show up than post even once in circlejerk central.
>>
>>719823894
/v/ mods are the reason we have so many twitter/reddit screencap threads, because those are the only ones that are kosher for whatever reason. Aislop and eceleb boards? Nah here's a multiplayer game and strategy game BOARD all to themselves nobody asked for

Was the game shilled by marketers or did the jannies start nuking the threads.

A little jannying is a good thing because if these threads get too comfortable some mold starts appearing.
Uma threads need to get razed once in a while so the /vg/ tier ritualpost imagedumpers and horse streamfags get washed the fuck out. But I'd rather have 100000 uma threads than RSS ragebait threads with takes outsourcedd from reddit or twitter

The horse gacha is still getting threads, there's just a rogue janny with a hateboner for the game that keeps deleting them. The game did fall off with normalfags though but as if that's an actual indictment of the game.

I only started browsing around 2010 or 11 so I don't know the pre /vg/ split shit, but you can't look at the absolute state of /v/ post all these splits and think that everything's worked out totally fine. The board is more unusable than it was at peak shiggy diggy posting, and that was a grim fucking era to try and talk about anything on 4chan.
Banishing generals sort of worked, but where does that leave people who want to talk about games that have generals, which as we both know are impossible to use?

All that has changed in the wake of the splits is that there's less whining about "muh thread about 30 year old game died!!! :(((" and the boards isn't 50% generals.
Everything else is exactly the same.
