Nigger Cannon/Shoop was more akin to 2006-09, not 2015.

10 years ago was 2015, by then we were already deep into post-ironic shit and that time in particular was bad due to the upcoming election and gamergate still lingering
overall it was still better than it currently is though, each year will only get worse
>>
2015 was only 4 years ago btw
>>
the last time 4chan had genuine fun instead of irony was 2011
>>
There was a lot less /pol/tards derailing threads.

>>725378635
Nonstop bitching about SJWs and refugees. Õ¸onyggers wouldn't stop dickriding Bloodborne. The people who actually played vidya were still having fun with Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and relentlessly shitting on Pokemon ORAS.
>>
>>725378635
Why don't you go through the archives like the rest of the redditors and newfags, pretending to know how it was?

This. I think the last vestiges of culture were probably late 2010-2011 before the site sunk into post-irony. Yes, the board still makes memorable OC but back then, 4chan as a whole actually had cultural relevance. It's mostly fell from the public consciousness except for when a /pol/ happening occurs or when the numerous Twitter grifter accounts reposts whatever thread from here to pay for their blue checkmark.

Replace most of the e-celeb sloppa with gg one.
Less irony-poisoned/shitposty but still retarded and pointless
No resetera/gcj raids, no sharty raids, no cord raids in general. Trolling was more spontaneous and less organized
Lingering console war shit flinging from 2000s internet
Coomer slop was still there

>>725383882
ORAS were the first Ohmori titles. There was a clear downgrade in quality beginning with those titles.
>>
>>725378635
Shit shit and shit
>>
>>725378635
It was the exact same shit, but we shitposted about the games from 10 years ago.

Some words like slop and tranny were still not in the shitposting vocabulary so you had to use shit and faggot instead.
>>
Any oldfags know 4chan was always bad.
But in all seriousness, you have to go back longer than a decade for it to be good. Even a decade ago we were getting an influx of turd-worlders.

I enjoyed the other raid where Launchpad and Einstein took home gold and silver for best vidya sidekicks. The comment sections for those polls were gold.

That was good but seeing captain king denied his throne drove the fanboys mental.

Yes
That's why they got a containment board like the ponies.

Skyrim was almost 15 years ago, anon
Skyrim will be able to post here in two years and some change.

>/v/ has too much off-topic
>makes a separate board for retro games, making it even harder for them to survive on /v/ and less vidya threads to compete with the off-topic instead of actually moderating /v/
Fuck moot.
>>
/v/ was just worksafe /b/. It had more tripfags, more people posting pics (and less phone posters). No actual video game discussions though, which is why I prefer nu /v/.

Sage because video games.

/tg/ was my homeboard from 2010 and it feels like I was there for the last great stretch before nazimod and the /qst/ ghetto broke its spirit. Passing over it now and seeing it just be 80% generals is just, yeah

Show me ten twitter screencap threads posted before the year 2013
>>
>>725387293
A reminder that the reddit frog is one of the big reasons /v/ and 4chan as a whole is shit because no one bothers to create OC anymore and would just rather spam reddit frogs instead.
>>
>>725378754
Do you guys think Moot still comes back to the site once in a blue moon to make a cheeky post or thread?
>>
>>725378635
10 years ago the board was already ruined and full of non-stop off-topic bullshit like pizza tipping memes.
