Clearly winning an argument on this website gives me a feeling like no other. It's like the first time you clear a case in Ace Attorney but 10x better. I unironically listen to the Ace Attorney OST when arguing with anons on this website.

Winning arguments is for losers. I get into arguments to lose because losing an argument means I learned something while winning an argument simply means I wasted my time arguing with someone who probably lives in a slum in some third world country.

If it’s an expansion it wouldn’t be “completely unrelated” now would it?
But if someone brings up something that it literally doesn’t matter whether it’s true or false in regards to the original topic it’s clear they care more about being right than whatever the original topic was

90% of the threads never reach 100 posts. The unreal engine threads really showed that someone is just recycling threads with the same fucking responses. either to simulate activity on this dying website or making anons go mad by the repetition?

It's just frustrating when your sage is pointless because the thread is instantly bumped by someone else, or even worse, when they seem to realize you saged the thread and bump it out of spite. I've just stopped replying to threads if I was going to make a sage post.

I've had shit I posted solely on /vg/ get reposted on /v/ only to be screencapped and re-posted on twitter and then re-re-posted on /v/ as a twitter screencap of the /v/ screencap.

I then had a friend forward it to me, my precious little post covered in what is basically the modern day equivalent of 500 cross-site watermarks.

Don't let it get to you, some effortposts like that can revive the thread and spur real discussion.
Besides that, the circlejerkers have emigrated to a different board, so don't feel daunted by the posting of their remnants. Our biggest problem is the nearly instant 'p spam which targets absolutely any thread that has a Touhou character in the OP image.
