>back in my day on /v/ we used to call Sony fans "s᠏o᠏᠏nyggers", Nintendo fans "ninteyear᠏so᠏᠏ld" and PC fans "P᠏C᠏᠏fats"
>>737229773Hurting the feelings of nintendo adults.
go back
And what did ASSFAGGOTS stand for, grandpa? Do you remember?
>>737229773>we
I used to be there. Then they changed what there was, and now what's there is new and scary to me. It'll happen to you!
wordfilters are a good thing and mods should be more aggressive with themthis board would also benefit from the /r9k/ originality filter
>>737230230>wordfilters are a good thing and mods should be more aggressive with themThis but only filter outsider lingo.
OP is a candy-ass
>>737229773Gaylo
>>737230271>only filter outsider lingo.This would be good. There's tons of Stormfront lingo that tourists spam everywhere.
i think they should start filtering words like "nigger" and "tranny"not because they shouldn't be saidjust because i think it'd be really funny to watch people have a fit about itmaybe only for like a ccouple of days, then revert itthat's enough time to get our laughs in
>>737230230>>737230271Filtering t᠏b᠏᠏h, s᠏m᠏᠏h and fa᠏m᠏᠏ was the best decision mods ever made. It was getting out of control.
>>737230380I would add snoy to that list just to watch our local schizo having a complete meltdown
We should filter Sharty lingoIdk why they filtered only the word "s ** o ** y" when that's the tamest one of them all and I always forget it's even filtered when I'm trying to talk about something like pic rel... but they won't filter actual identifiable soijak worshipper language like "'eck'" "'log" "cado" "gemerald""troon" "trvke" etc- and all the various stacks of stacks of pictures of ugly deranged illustrations of bearded bespectacled men that they are so fetishistically drawn to that they all take from he same booru and would be so easy to filter but they just don't It's like they WANT to foster a userbase of underage CP dealers and mental patients
>>737230529>our local schizo>singulardo you know how little that narrows it down? there's a "local schizo" as you say nowadays, for pretty much fucking everythingand somehow mods can't discern them and ban them when every person with a brain canit's like they lack pattern recognition skills or something
>>737230537>when I'm trying to talk about something like pic relI forgot to actually add a pic rel... But you knew what I meant, I'm sure
>>737230230It's unbelievable that Eric's catchphrase hasn't been filtered yet with how often it's spammed to oblivion in any threads where he's called out and has a meltie.
>>737229901Aeon of Strife Style Fortress Assault Game Going On Two SidesDo not cite the deep magics to me, Witch, I was there when they were written
>>737230281Sometimes it feels like I was living at the different timeline at some point. Newfriends won't get it.
>>737230271this, the words in op's post are the staple of the board, you just know tendie mod was butthurt and added sony and pc words just to cover up he's a tendie
>>737230529filter ALL the various retarded console war insultssnoy, nintendie, all of them... every single one... and watch people out themselves as being console warring niggers by exclaiming that the board is protecting only one of those groups by accidentally admitting that they tried using one and only one of them and thus not knowing that they're all banned all the same
>>737230537᠏S᠏᠏oy is not even that popular.I agree back then it needed a filter, but nowaday it's irrelevant. They should remove it, just like they did with the cuck filter
>>737230680Mods and admins won't do shit unfortunately, just like how MLP is long past its prime yet GR15 is still in place, and because GR15 still exists, the wannabes get to shit up boards at random with threads made to enrage their own bots as to "justify" the rule's continued presence.
>>737230679>That wouldn't wo->>737230642Oh... I guess it already works lolIt's really funny not being on any side of the console war seeing the way every flavor of one of these retards thinks their battle is uniqueIt's legit like they're so stuck in their echochamber that they don't see that others say the exact same things they do about every company>Why is it ONLY ok with Nintendo does it?>Why is it ONLY ok when Sony does it?>Why is it ONLY ok when Microsoft does it?>Why is it ONLY ok when Steam does it?Like they don't look around and see that this "exclusivity" somehow manages to apply to everyone making it not very exclusive
>>737230767>It's really funny not being on any side of the console war seeing the way every flavor of one of these retards thinks their battle is uniquethey cope with this by convincing themselves anyone who even mildly disagrees with them is 'the enemy' and belongs to whichever group they hate so even if you're on the fence they'll force you off the fence in their head and then demand you answer for the crimes of whatever group they imagined you inwait a minute this is just like politics
>>737230904And before political discourse, this was religious discourse.Same as it ever was.
>>737230904I still can't cope with the fact that OoTsnoy is being used unironically
>>737230970>OoTsnoywhat does that even MEAN?we are reaching deranged levels of abstraction
>>737231047It's civil warring between Zeldafags, specifically a derogatory term from BotW era defenders against anyone who expresses even the slightest dislike of the BotW era games, because they simply MUST be a seething "OoTsnoy" that their game is irrelevant and dated.This is also why you've been seeing a lot of threads shitting on OoT lately, it's utter fucking bollocks.
>>737230108It did. I come to /gig/ and have no fucking idea what those morons are talking about.
>Enter a thread about some topic I don't usually interact with>"Hey this seems interesti-">Some anon comes in>"NICE TRY OP BUT I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND IT'S NOT GONNA WORK, YOU WON'T GET ME TO SAY SHLIBBY BIBBY COWS ON THE MOON DICKS IN MY ASS, NO I WON'T!">"Wha?">"Oh that's just dicks-in-my-ass-jerry he does this all the time we just live with it now">"DON'T LISTEN TO HIM, that's "that's just dicks-in-my-ass-jerry schizo", he always comes in here accusing me of being dicks-in-my-ass-jerry!">"NO WAY, I KNOW IT'S YOU, JOHNNY-DOG-MILKER!

Well how about THIS, RICAHRD-NIGGA-PUSSY!?" *Posts some screencap* "GOT YOU NOW!"Every thread feels like I just walked into some fucking anime ass battle scene that I need about 6 seasons and two mangas worth of context to understand There's no way jannies are blind to this right
>>737231047If you critique BotW it's because you're a Sony fanboy using OoT as the lense of criticism.
>>737231418>jannies
>>737231418They aren't blind, they actively encourage this kind of behavior. As do the mods. On the contrary, YOU are in the wrong if you express discontent with the schizos or try to remove them.Entire site is like this nowadays and it's only gotten worse ever since the traffic drop caused by last year's hack.
>>737231450Tell me how I know you like to talk shit about other people's video game remakes?
>>737229773>pcmustards
>>737231418Nice try Eric!
>>737231450Zeldafags have been arguing with each other to death since forever.Pretending anyone that doesn't like BotW is a sonyfag is pure schizo behavior.
>>737230230Would make filtering images obnoxious because everyone would just be MD5 scrambling their folders to keep spamming the same shitty images past the filter
>>737229773"Snoy" is such a weak, limpwristed fucking sanitized insult. It's like how everyone calls things "slop" nowadays. Call it goyslop, you faggots.
>>737231628Cool it with the antisemitic remarks.
>>737231628>reee why are people not amplifying my jewish conspiracy theory? why are they just taking the important relevant part and leaving out the schizo bit?
>>737231720You're sanitizing the language so you can use neutered versions to get upvotes on Twitter. Few things are gayer, and deserves to be called out.
>>737231628I call them snoyim or sonyim, it fits better and is even grammatically correct.
>>737231606Imagine if Pokefags or Fromfags did the same with anyone that doesn't like the lastest game
>>737230230you being filtered would be a good thing if you ask for stuff to be filtered.
>>737231905>PokefagsThey already have constant tribal warfare over generations and even what the "correct" way to play the game is, just spend five minutes browsing /vp/.
>>737231775>sanitizingmore like /pol/tards are half right and dropping the 'muh j00z' angle makes it more correct.
>>737231949Of course, old beloved franchises do be like that. It's only natural to have a bitter purist old guard that don't like new things. What I cannot comprehend is how someone concludes that anyone that doesn't like the lastest entry or disagrees with you is some kind third agent falseflaging
>>737231506>meltdownthis seems to be a word i hear about 80 times a day recently, and most of the time it's not even in reference to anything mildly emotional or upset, just the most calm and well articulated posts imaginable that happened to rustle someone's jimmies get a "OOOH HE'S MAD HE'S HAVING A MELTY OO HE'S FREAKING OUT HE'S CRASHING OUT UH OHH" cause kids who grew up in a culture that incentivizes ironic detachment and punishes any semblance of emotionality taught them that's the best way to shut down someone that is bothering them, to the point where the word has no meaning anymoreit's like some people don't communicate with the definitions of words but rather their emotional association and purely the social goal they want to achieve, like everyone here is a mean girl teen bully in some retarded highschool movie that just says whatever will get the other girls behind her in her clique to go "yeeeah, she's soooo right"
what else am i missing?>spamfiltered when i tried to post it in plaintexti guess they're doing something at least
>>737232172>the weird injection of the word 'tranny' into regular languageyeah i know it's supposed to just be a jab but it gets to the point where it almost feels freudianor maybe just the need to make an insult "more intense" like y'know when you're really upset at someone and you raise your voice and put more 'push' into your words? that's kinda the text version of that, words just slip out that are in your head and interject into the sentence and... well, i guess THAT'S what's in their head a lot
>>737232231>>737232172Most of these are sharty memes, and here's the thing about sharty kids- they actually, no joke, unironically, fully and consciously, believe everyone they dislike is a transsexualIt's not the same as us putting the word "fag" after every term as a figure of speechThey honest to god believe everyone who is upsetting them is currently sat right now in a skirt and panties injecting estrogen at this very physical real moment on god's good green earthTheir obsession with trannies is like nothing you've ever seen, it goes beyond regular ol dislike for the queers, it's a fixation, their minds are very malleable which is what got them into a s**oyjak worshipping cult website in the first place where they sit spamming babycorn images and planning raids and editing pictures of their demonic god all day, so they also think it's just as easy for someone to just snap their fingers and say a few words and turn them into trannies, just like that, like someone can just post some memetic SCP image or say a spell at them through the web and tomorrow they'll wake up wanting to be a chick
>>737229864To... /v/?
>>737232231>it gets to the point where it almost feels freudianBecause there are a considerable amount of trannies on 4chan. Even self-hating trannies. There's a fucking entire board for them.
>>737232457they always talk about being scared of being groomed but you can't groom a fully grown adultyou can only groom someone into being a homofaggot if1. they're already a homofaggot in the closet2. they're a young child3. they're mentally retardedand every single person on there is either one or several of those things, mostly the latter
>>737230271The issue with this is most if not all “outsider” lingo is words that originated here, were spammed by tourists on other sites and then brought back here again. Chud, seethe, based, redpilled, incel and pretty much every buzzword i can recall of all trace their origins here.
>>737232572BACK IN TIME
>>737232457Imagine being so retarded you believe this.
>>737230230>>737230537The mods don't give a shit about the quality of this board, otherwise they wouldn't have removed the IP counter.Remember when everyone went to double chan and retards started revealing just how infested with samefagging this board is?
i remember the times when saying "NIGGER" was allowed in here
>>737232580i think the amount of transsexuals on here is greatly overestimated and if they exist most of them likely don't go advertising italso if they're on 4chan they're probably not that sensitive or uber progressivemost people think there are more of them than there really are just because they fall for super obvious falseflag baitlike some nigger will make a post saying "uuwwu i am le heckinerino valiiderino trannirino girlerino what kinda games can i play in my cute boypregnant socks while i take girl titty pills" and motherfuckers with an iq lower than the marinara trench will fall for it
>>737230619You mean the NintoddIer who refreshes the catalog so he can tell everyone who criticises Nintendo that they lost and got raped?
>>737230537Holy shit you fags are so unbelievably new it's almost painful to witness.
>>737231528That term died pretty fast after the ketchup response popped up.
>>737232764an ip counter would do fuck all nowadays, it would ironically be a placebo in the wrong direction is there a word for that?since every schmuck can easily change their ip, it would mean people would look at the ip count when someone is clearly samefagging but he's changing the ip and they'd go "oh, no samefagging here" likewise all it did towards the end of it's life is make people paranoid constantly ip checking it was a bandaid that needed to come off
>>737231418Rule of thumb is when an obvious shitstiring schizo is not banned on sight then it is the janny/mod himself. Bonus points for getting banned yourself fast when you report them.This phenomenon can be witnessed in any general on /vg/ and /vt/ even more obvious.
>>737232785>i thinkno you don't. there's enough of them to muscle out every fag out of /lgbt/. it's just a den of oversensitive trannies now.
>>737232845An argument in favor of IDs then.
>>737232890this is /v/, brodid you take a wrong turn in Albuquerque?
>>737229773>no mention of xbots
>>737232921You ever click on a thread here with a Princess Peach OP image?
>>737232921and /v/ is located on 4chan.org along with every other board located on 4chan.org. save the twitter gotchas for your dad.
>>737232894same issue, it can be changed easily and makes people paranoid+we have enough tourist faggots who are obsessed with other posters and would make this hell, cunts who think 4chan needs to effectively have a reddit posting history for each user who go stalking motherfuckers across the archive and what notimagine making a post and an insane jackass has a go at you because 4 posts earlier you said you like beans and now he's hallucinating you as a transsexual black british nintendo fan with a peg leg who voted for joe biden or some shit and starts pissing over the whole thread because of it
>>737232958Because it was the normalfag console, and back then normalfags didn't come here.Now this shitty board is majority normalfags.
>>737233015In an ideal world newfags like you would be banned as soon as you used your dogshit lingo -__-
>>737231486Wait how did she get her hands free?
>>737231418>oh hey a new intravenous thread>GUYS IT'S DLY IT'S SO FUCKING FUNNY HE KEEPS MELTING DOWN>NO I'M NOT DLY YOU'RE DLY THIS GAME SUCKS YOU ALL FUCKING SUCK I HATE YOU AAAAAAAAAAAA>LMAO DLY >who the fuck is DLY>HERE'S 60 TOTALLY ORGANIC IMAGES SHOWING DLY HAVING A MELTY LMAOOOOOOOO>DLY DLY DLY DLY DYNAMIC LIGHTING GUYS ISN'T THE LIGHTING SO DYNAMIC >no one actually talks about the game or any upcoming levels or even any stealth games afterwards
>>737230380They will never filter the word nigger because it's the easiest "reason" jannies can get you banned for if you happened to accidentally dunk on one.
>>737232958Literally no one cares about Xbox seriously on this site. It's worse than having a recognizable insult.
>>737230380Filter every slur. 4chan is no place for bigoted language.
>>737233047>Now this shitty board is majority normalfags.People won't admit that this is the biggest issue, they want so badly to imagine there's some new boogeyman of the week every week but it always feels like a falseflag by normalfag tourists to pretend like they're true and honest oldfags and this place didn't start to stink when they came along, it was someone else! Totally!People wanna convince themselves it's bots or foreigners or some secret armada from some website or discord or something, but it's 99% just faggots who didn't start using the web until they got their first iphone
>>737232845>a placebo in the wrong direction [is there a word for that?]snake oil
>>737233136you're incredibly obvious btw
>>737232853>there's a mental case on the board who really hates various indie games and throws a fit whenever they're posted, especially ENA for some reason, no idea why>every time a picture of this polygonal slag is in the OP, even if it's not a thread about her and it's just used as an example or something, he comes in throwing a fit the whole entire time>jannies never banned him>recently threads with her in the OP started getting deleted on sight either he became a janny or is sucking some janny off
>>737233213Alright, go on, which boogeyman am ICome on tell me
>>737233015>it can be changed easilyYou have to be paying extra for a private VPN service that isn't blocked or restart your modem as well as clear cookies. That instantly filters retards and underagebaits. And for poorfags it means waiting several minues for thier modem to restart.Plus the 300s cooldown that hits for all these methods.You are a nigger.
>>737233105This. There is no greater disdain than showing no appreciation.
>>737233078Maybe those threads would fare better if the dev weren't such a tremendous faggot and Intravenous fanboys so incredibly irritating.I played the first game and it was a competent debut that still had lots of room for improvement, but merely stating that already makes them seethe like a tranny looking at a beautiful woman.
>>737233290>That instantly filters retards and underagebaits.Anon, idiots are not the problem, a retard's own post filters them, if someone is too dumb to even hop on their phone or something, everyone in the vicinity can smell that they're a moronThe issue is obsessed spammers who not only know how, but are willing to spend time changing IPs all day just to achieve some imaginary victory in a Tiwanese sheep shearing board
>>737233136The boogyman shit reeks of the kind or retarded drama that normalfags can't get enough of. They're always talking about what some faggot influencer said to some other faggot influencer.
>>737233280a newfag larping as an oldfag.
>>737233378God, don't remind meI used to come to /v/ to avoid those people, now it feels like I'm sat in some girls gossip salon every day on here
I've been here since 2004. I know now why being immoral is horrible not because of loved ones dying, but change and not wanting to adapt. We used to be a hive of scum and villainy. People would stay away from fear of being H4XO12'd, having their MySpace page flooded with gay photoshoped pics. /l/ had ACTUAL pedo shit and i STILL don't know how Moot got away without being arrested. I remember the good times, the bad times, all the stupid big events on the site.But now?Legion is broken, we've forgotten and we forgive. Too many voices all saying gayass shit, too many fags ruining convo with stupid reddit memes and Indians existing online.The 4chan I knew of 2004 to 2014 is long gone. Moot left because he knew this shit was coming.
>>737233354>but merely stating that already makes them seethe like a tranny looking at a beautiful woman.It's because acting like a dumbass gets ten times as the (you)s for barely a fraction of the mental brainpower you'd get for an effortpost. And effort posting would most require you to have not only played a game but actually engaged with it, and I highly suspect a lot of people here don't even play their games, they just recycle second/third/fourth hand opinions they'd read here which themselves are probably recycled second/third/fourth hand opinions from twitter or some eceleb or some other shit.
>>737232172Toxo is the one doing it most likely, very noticeable as the faggot has had to switch his spam routine up when he invades /van/ threads
>>737233436>m00tWho?
>>737232853I see this more with threads than specific schizos. I once made a perfectly banal thread for a game that got maybe 20 comments before it archived. The next day ad-verbatim someone copied the image and OP I used, then added some bait and idpol bullshit to it. Got over 300+ comments before being 404’d.
>>737233436The only thing sadder than some newfag larping as a TOTALLY ANCIENTFAG BROS POOLS CLOSED AMIRITE is an actual ancientfag being stuck in his own mind 20 years ago.The zoomie at least has the chance to grow up, (You), provided you are indeed not a larper, has not.I feel sorry for you.
>>737233436>The 4chan I knew of 2004 to 2014 is long goneIt's not just 4chan, it's everywere. Unironically it was the CIA working on killing generational culture and replacing it with identity group fighting. Anyone who wasn't underage remembers how drastically culture, on and offline, changed between 2013 and 2015.

>>737233654Mods have been power tripping fags for ages, even before 4chan. It's hard apparently to, ya know, do your job.
>>737233595Blame social media and the easy access of the internet across the world as well as smartphone and tablet devices.
>>737233679>What about the net is better now vs 20 years ago?Never said that, never implied that you illiterate totally at least 40 years old faggot.
>>737233778This, mass Indians ruined whatever is left online. They refuse to integrate with modern society, treating everything just as shit as their daily lives in the real world; shitting in the streets and making POOR and RETARDED seem normal for everyone.
>>737233797Didn't answer my question, zoom.WHAT IS BETTER ABOUT THE NET TODAY VS 20 YEARS AGO!?
>>737233595Identity group fighting is older than your father lil zoomie.
>>737233919Why would I answer that question? It's not like you would know what the net was like 20 years ago anyway (I am now fairly sure that you are an actual teenager larping as an "adult").

>>737233213outing yourself
>>737234216>In January 2008, Munroe developed an open-source chat moderation script named "Robot9000". Originally developed to moderate one of Munroe's xkcd-related Internet Relay Chat (IRC) channels, the software's algorithm attempts to prevent repetition in IRC channels by temporarily muting users who send messages that are identical to a message that has been sent to the channel before. If a user continues to send unoriginal messages, Robot9000 mutes the user for a longer period, quadrupling for each unoriginal message the user sends to the channel.[26] Shortly after Munroe's blog post about the script went live, 4chan administrator Christopher Poole adapted the script to moderate the site's experimental /r9k/ board.[27] Twitch trialed R9K mode as a beta feature,[28] and eventually introduced it under the name "unique-chat mode".[29]https://blog.xkcd.com/2008/01/14/robot9000-and-xkcd-signal-attacking-noise-in-chat/tl;dr It kills low effort posts without ever impacting any real posts longer than two sentences.
>>737234446yeah, moot was testing it out on /r9k/ to see if it'd improve the site overall but then gamergate and CIA's idpol happened and he abandoned 4chan because people hurt his feelings while he was oppressing the shit out of everyone's speech and driving half the userbase off the site
>>737233436Being on this site for 22 years isn't a flex. It's just sad.

>>737233595Man, not only zoomers got fucked by COVID, but also won't be allowed to nostalgiafag with other people.Us at least had a more stable internet culture, meaning each time I say something like>member when we used to think Sony was dying and spamming that "there won't be a PS4 and here's why:" pastaI know there are people here that do remember.Zoomers memes, trends and internet culture on the other hand is changing every week. Once they reach their 30 nobody will remember that tiktok video he saw 15 years ago.

>>737231418Generals are a mistake
>>737234959>Once they reach their 30I'm genuinely curious to know what happens when the current generation reaches 30, 40, 50, 60, etc- I just can't imagine them as functional adults, they practically don't have brains, it's not like when previous generations were dumb kids and had to grow out of it, at least those people had something to develop up there in the noggin, I'm talking about the finger family nursery rhyme peppa pig cakefarting gone sexual watching kids who were raised on enough xanax and ritalin to kill a horse and a culture that literally taught them that it's forbidden to think, show emotion, act in any sense of earnestly or care about anythingI can't imagine these people proposing to their spouse or having their first kid or seeing their loved one on their deathbed, I can't imagine them being able to achieve any sense of mental clarity, they were socially incentivized to live in irony forever, they see people get brutalized in the streets and talk about them having "been unalived in minecraft with a pewpew"Will they go mad? Die out? Or will the world reach some state of sci-fi dystopian pod hell by then that'll keep them safe in their mental prisons forever?
>>737235136They had to do something about those Katawa Shoujo threads anon.
>>737235136The issue is that this doesn't just happen to generals, I've seen it happen in games that get a unique totally organic thread maybe once a month or soThe loonies rememberThey're like fucking sleeper agents
>>737235196Your brain is complete mush.
>>737231418I think we need to triple the jannies salaries to deal with this shit

>>737230537keep in mind, cumbrain and salty sauce were filtered because the jannies were most insulted by them. It's not about how offensive a word is to society at large, it's how sad janny gets when he sees himself insulted.
>>737235337While normally I'd agree, the purpose of filters isn't really to "defeat" anyoneIt's to get them to stop being annoyingIf I see a fly and squash it you can talk about how the fly "won" on a spiritual level because it remained stoic before my wrath and I had no choice but to dispose of it... Sure, whateverBut the fly was being annoying and landing on my burger so it went byebye
>>737235204Most of 4chan is just generals now, people want to have "friend" groups but without the commitment of usernames
>>737235136You're correct but generals are a mistake for a whole host or reasons, the biggest imo is that they destroy creativity and drive otherwise interesting conversation and thread starters into niche topic threads that have functionally become sub-boards with 20 people in them instead of the main board with 2000so it kills creativity, silos everyone into subreddits, and the generals themselves are then taken over by schizosalso I'm 99% certain marketing agencies are abusing the existence of generals as ghetto viral marketing instead of buying adsthey are in every single fucking way I can think of, a blight on the websitethe only good thing a general does is act as an overflow container when something gets spammed too much, they have otherwise been a colossal negative since they startedand yeah, generals didn't used to exist. For like the first 10 years of 4chan nobody made generals
>>737235406>food analogy
>>737232785It doesn't matter how many actual trannies there are. Half the populace has integrated trannies into their team, so calling something tranny immediately signals to the group whether it should be supported or derided.
>>737234619when 22 years you here have been, sad you will to be.
>>737235454I love how this filters people who are mad at what you said but can't articulate why so they need to invent an imaginary "losing condition" they can point at whenever they want to convince themselves a poster lost some made up points for using itI purposefully use food analogies because it summons idiots to announce themselves
>>737235406It doesn't do that though. The response to trolls is to ignore them, They want attention. By using filters you just draw attention to the fact that that word is sensitive and just fucking annoy people when one of the words is a common food item. This site and the internet at large latch onto new slang and insults every year. Remember NPC? Nobody calls people NPC anymore, it's passe. Just ignore the slang, if you filter it it becomes a permanent fixture.
>>737235461>so calling something tranny immediately signals to the group whether it should be supported or derided.so it's retarded meaningless language that doesn't actually describe something real but rather a sided 'group affiliation' and a general 'vibe' meant to signal to us that the person is question is the enemy, like "karen" or "chud" or "dudebro"?man that's dumb
>>737230230It's confusing and stupid and your contrarian abstractions fool no one!
>>737235196You sound like a stupid ass fag, that like to sniff his own fart, man.
>>737235562Well yes but also no. Obviously it's a buzzword if there are no trannies in the media at all. But if your game has an official pride parade in it, or a transexual voice actor who sounds terrible or a pride flag, it's pretty much irrevocably "tranny". The game doesn't have to be about trannies or even mention them, but if it mentions the associates of trannies it is binarily tranny.
>>737235235>The loonies rememberI think the issue is not remembering because everyone is able to do that, it's normal human nature The issue is doing something about it, when someone exposes other anon even non-maliciously it still strips them of their anonymity, then other people start to say their opinion about said anon, now they have created a namefag, now with some time later that thread becomes looney central because of multiple namefags fighting each other for attention All of these can be avoided if some people just kept their mouths shut
>>737235647>obviously it's a buzzword that means nothing if your game doesn't have the thing it means in it, but it's not a buzzword that means nothing if your game DOES have the thing it means in it....oki mean yeah i guess those are sorta your only options, fair enough
>>737235406bro the purpose of wordfilters was never to make people stop being annoying they're supposed to be funnythe whole point is that it's funnywhen a word filter stops being funny it's outlived its purposeif it wasn't funny in the first place it was created for the wrong reasonsthe admins of this site don't even fucking care anymore so all these long outdated and unfunny wordfilters from literally a fucking DECADE ago still exist, that's how long they've completely tuned out and stopped caring
>>737235532It's a jokeI expected you to follow with>it's actually a fly analogy
>>737235692Eh maybe if I was in a better mood but I'm genuinely so used to people throwing chimpies about "food analogies" in earnest I've removed points out of my skill for being able to or caring when it happens to be a jokeErr uhh I mean uhPenis analogy
>say something negative about Valve>high chance of getting banned>catalog has had a steam deck shill thread general up nearly 24/7 for the past few years now>we get a sticky for a comic because valve made itProblem is that mods/jannies are big fanboys of certain stuff, it's nearly reddit-like
>>737235792so is it valve or nintendo or sony or microsoft that they love and worship and everyone else gets the shaft? i keep getting mixed messages all the time, it can't be all of them, right?have you considered that you just notice the things that bother you personally and not when everyone else gets similar treatment
>>737235838When was the last time any of the other companies than Valve got a sticky for something as stupid as a comic?
>>737235792>>737235838 See => >>737230767
>>737235901Well when a company is known for "the thing that's never ever ever gonna happen" and one day it happens, yeah that's pretty focal, enough to get a sticky for a comicOther companies don't have their variant of that their workflow is pretty expected and predictable and they do get stickies when really big things occurThink of it like being upset that someone is celebrating the crippled kid for walking 2 feet>I walk all the time, why aren't they celebrating ME?
>>737235792To me nothing will beat when Ultimatefags were flooding the entire catalog and mods didn't do shit because it was le cultural phenomenon
>The average age of onset for schizophrenia is between 25 and 27 years oldImagine that, there's a high chance there never really was a huge flood of mentally ill people coming to the site, but rather that all the oldfags became completely bonkers due to age.

>>737236113as long as they're white or one of the high functioning east asians that's fine by me

>>737236109>he believes in thislol the average age of onset for schizophrenia just so happens to be when most people are old enough to be independent and speak out of line most cases of schizophrenia are fake and just medicalized normal personality traits that scare the neurotic drug addicted women in the psychological industry or endanger the status quo
>>737229773One of the nintendie insult words literally always causes "we're detecting spam" no matter if it's posted as a single word of in a 5 paragraph post.
mods and jannies have always been dogshitit's just that the userbase kept getting worse and worseall the funny retards left for shit like twitter when they realized they could make a living off of drawing shitty doodles and making half assed jokes instead of feeding the crabbucket
>>737235532Holy butthurt batman.
>>737230608>tfw i cant actually talk about picrel in gw2 threads because nincompoops on the internet overused the wordIts pretty annoying, especially when its censor isnt really any better. Its like what was ever even the point?
whenever I see a post that's nothing more than a template aka>well?>thoughts?>uh oh x sisterswhat a coincidence something like this as well >>737236278etc... I disregard its existence because it may as well be a bot who made it, a person being has no input in itsure maybe a human being did but not a person, not a conscious soul, just organic AI
>>737232172>>737232457Shartyfags are the most annoying simply because there's nothing creative or amusing about their antics. It's just the same terms spammed over and over in an attempt to astroturf it here, and if things don't go their way they just spam tranny operation pics until they get banned.
>c|-|4r4c73r 5|)34k5 1/\/ 01d, f0r90773n 70/\/9V35I honestly feel like an internet dinosaur at this point.
>>737231418>Every thread feels like I just walked into some fucking anime ass battle scene that I need about 6 seasons and two mangas worth of context to understandThat's because you just did. You walked into an environment that existed long before you started paying attention and you have no context that allows you to understand what is going on, you don't recognize the posters, you don't get the injokes, you didn't lurk. You blended in with someone who tried to fuck with the thread through samefagging and other posters are using the only defense mechanism they have - aggression. It's largely ineffective, because if someone is dedicated enough to samefag a thread into oblivion he will eventually succeed, not to mention he may abuse that mechanism himself, but it's really the only option left.
>>737233937Is constant revisionism and reframing the new tactic? I've been seeing a lot of replies like this one lately.

>metashit reddit thread with ID shitters, shartykeks and kiwitards crying about 4chan
>>737230679>>737230904It's honestly insane how bad console war shit has gotten lately. You can't talk about a single system without aspies coming in and shitting it up. Nintendo, Sony, PC, it's all the same. And all they do is just cherry pick and spam the same screenshots and webms over and over. Imagine spending all day scouring the board for this shit.
Fellow dinosaurs, what was in your opinion the absolute worst shitstorm this place ever endured?To me nothing will beat Bloodborne announcement. Not because of the intensity (when m00t banned gamergate it was worse) but because how long it fucking lasted. We almost got 10 years of never EVER posting because of this.
>>737235196It's be design. Israel is destablizing Europe while taking over the Middle East and trying to make it the new center of the world. Once the have the whole middle east, they have the tade routes too.
And don't forget>Trannies will never be real women and their parents will always secretly, or openly, despise them
>>737236387You're not disregarding it's existence. You're passive aggressively sperging out because you never had a father figure to teach you how to deal with confrontation.
So which board schizo is canonically the most powerful? My money is on either Quentin or ACFag. 15 fukin years of this is a hard track record to beat.
>>737236945Gonna pretend you didn't spam yiff in hell and used homophobic slurs back when it was trendy?

>>737229773Back then we weren't raided constantly by /pol/ and discord, instead people from /b/ would sometimes come to shit up other boards a bit, hence we had this saying referencing X-Files: "I want /b/ to leave".

>>737233679>Itch.io>Youtube.Thats about it.
>>737236693Is there a reason why this type of behavior has exponentially increased across the site? It used to be trolls using smarts to get someone up, which played for laughs, now they just brute force their way into destroying threads or any discussion with low effort spam
>>737238281>>YoutubeNo, just no
>>737231418nice pasta

>>737238431Its not that wild of a concept for people to thrive off the misery they can bring to others company. Look at anti-social nigger hoodrats or the homeless.

>>737230537Fuck off newfag
>>737238106fromtards are really a different breed of spergs
>>737238431tripfags/namefags were very common back in the old days, but I guess the newer generation of schizos, despite being just as mentally ill, are much more technologically incompetent
>>737239019To my knowledge tripfags just turned into namefags/avatarfags through time, because in that way they couldn't be filtered
>>737239273You can filter namefags luckily and avatarfags generally use the same 5-10 reaction images anyways like the recent aquajeet.
>>737239387retards have been gaslit by shitposters into thinking that filtering is>le reddit safe hugboxsimilar to how a lot of normalfags avoid installing an adblocker because it's >hurting small creatorsor some retarded shit
>>737239387I meant namefags not as in they use the name field but that they engage with posts referring to them or acknowledge said nameFor images they can just get new ones
>>737239507Well shit I always just tell them its my PC and can choose the kind of content I can see or omit. They just want people to become exposed to their garbage. >>737239535How often do people make new images though? I haven't seen certain avatarfags or ritualistic spam in months sometimes years. These people are lazy.
>>737230108>Old thing good new thing badExcept unironically. It's only a fallacy if it's not been proven true multiple times. Even the memes are inferior. If you told me shit like Rickrolls and Numa Numa Guy would be considered more creative than anything else I would have been confused. Because that shit seemed to just be for fun no effort stuff. But it's like the new shit is negative numbers worth of effort.
>>737229864if only...
You want to know what is wrong with 4chan? these >>737237081 needless antisemitic posts that aren't cleaned up and further contribute to global antisemitism.
>>737236640>>737232457I don't know what sharty means
>>737239616>How often do people make new images though?Often, the more mentally ill ones doUltimately I'm not really referring to the problem being being able to filter or not problematic people, is more of showing how more fucked in the head they have become through the years to become this new style of tripfagging, at the end of the day they spend a lot of time online forcing everyone to see their shit opinions by any means necessary
>>737232764IP counter was shit and I'm tired of pretending it wasn't.All it did was enable schizos who fancied themselves le ebin nooticers to shit up threads because they couldn't fathom having an actual ongoing conversation in thread instead of just drive by shitposting constantly, and the IP counter not going up was definitely irrefutable proof of [insert schizo nonsense here].You could catch when an OP makes a thread and immediately starts talking to himself, but that's like a 1 in 1000 threads kind of thing and not worth every thread being shat up by retards obsessed with the IP counter.
>>737240119It had the (4) post count faggots but it also filtered the regular samefag shit, no it wasn't 100% because of VPN but it was a lot better. Or maybe it was because the place wasn't flooded with subhumans and actual tumblr/discord faggot raiders
>>737240119>You could catch when an OP makes a thread and immediately starts talking to himselfthat's still the caseif you make a thread and samefag, the thread doesn't get bumped no matter how many times you post
>>737230230they already killed the board with email verification & captcha. I don't think we need threads that last 3+ years.

>>737235621You are Indian. At least try to learn the language.
>>737230537the weird part about this filter is that the -lent liquid was only a passing fad like 3 months later people were all over wojacks and shit.
>>737237520worse when you get hit with>oh so you're himsame thing when anyone randomly and unpromptedly starts spamming about any person or group, trannies, indians, whatever is current at the moment, you tell them to fuck off with the off topic shit, and they accuse you of being those things because they're so convinced everywhere is a battlefield that the only people who don't like their spam must be the enemy
>>737239387>Be me, not avatarfag>Use a random reaction image I saved ages ago that happens to apply to the post I'm currently writing >Ah, it's you, [name of some avatarfag who unknowingly to me uses that character to avatarfag]!!
>>737240119you're right it also made people really mad whenever there was a high ip to reply rationot like "2 guys in a 100 reply thread" but more like a 3 per 4 ratio or something because they didn't like people having back n forth discussions instead of slide threads
>>737230537>they all take from he same booru and would be so easy to filterWhat do the filenames look like so I can filter them myself?

butthurt

>>737241246Onions being filtered wasn't because of the Onions fad, that just happened to come around at the same time. It was filtered because schizos became convinced that onions products contained gay pheromones or something equally as retarded and were obsessing over it in every thread.It was actually effective, too, because the onions posting died almost entirely not long afterwards.
>>737241512it's "[the forbidden bean]booru" I believe speaking of which of you wanna see insanity go on their wiki and never again will you have to doubt that they are a deranged cultin fact they used to have a page on there literally dictating how to spam various 4chan boards it's gone now but screenshots remain, someone post the /v/ one if you have it, it's literally all the worst things about this place and it's proof that it's done by them>spam anime ass>accuse people of being shills >pretend to be trannies and leftwingers as bait>turn threads into console war faggotryetcseeing it is like finding CIA files admitting that they started the crack epidemic
>>737233436>>737233525It's always a huge giveaway that somebody is faking it when they say m00t instead of moot. Even back at the start, moot was just moot.
>>737241686the thing is, this is one of those factoids that's actually based in reality but morons struggle with parsing facts properly so they just became obsessed with soi being le funnee gay bean or whatever

>>737241686>>737241781I thought that's because some faggot posted his ugly keyboard on /g/ and got verbally roasted for it?
>>737241990no there's actually proof that people who consume a lot of bean product have higher levels of estrogen but it's a result of several factors, mainly the processing of the soi causing it to cause these compounds as well as trans fats which also contribute to the issuethey're also less likely to eat meat and that's also a factorthis is mainly an issue with thermally and chemically processes bean like bean oil and bean food powders and meal replacements, not the raw, boiled or fermented form like edamame or bean sauceso it's true kinda but people just didn't get why and made it a dumb meme
>>737235686There really are a lot of wordfilters that aren't at all necessary now, like how in 2012, there was an e-celeb called Forever lelPandering and you still can't type that as one word.

I genuinely want to know where this myth of a good /v/ came from. I've been around since 2012 and not once has this place been anything besides a containment board for le ebic troles and people too stupid/functionally obtuse to "use X board to talk about X"
>>737242296new jannies don't know why old rules exist nor about the old culture it's why they sometimes delete threads that were always fine like certain joke threads or battle station threads cause the new blood doesn't know better

>>737242928
>>737242437>>737242561It was a lot of fun between 06-07. It was was probably the most influential board of entire site and we hadn't had chanology yet, so the first major flood of newbies hadn't come through. There's definitely some nostalgia because I was a teenager.I still fondly remember when we came across a Sonic forum filled with delusional furries and imitated it with a Pokémon forum where we pretended that Pokémon were real and seeking to break dimensional barriers. Took a week or so to set up and make it look like an organic place, before it was posted on /b/ and elsewhere, just for the sake of trolling people. High effort for absolutely zero gain of anything besides a few laughs.Of course it was the birthplace of many memes that still persist to this day, like rickrolling.
>>737241881>where are you people on regular days?I open up /v/, check the top 5 posts/min threads and if any of them are a twitter/reddit screencaps, I close /v/ and go talk about a game I'm playing with on /vg/ instead or just close 4chan entirely and play video games.I break my own rule if I see a template thread haven't seen one in months, weekend draw thread or shit that's really interesting from a glance like that cave story rap thread we had recently.

>>737243334Coming back to this place years later after leaving when the GG shit happened it is jarring how much worse it got.
>>737239696rickrolling was hyperlinking, and that actually meant effort on your part instead of "just posting a meme." It required interacting with other people, almost exclusively in a positive manner, and took some level of creative thought to consistently hide the destination and keep the click something easy and fast.Incidentally, does ANYONE listen to modern music?
>>737241024>except /b/It would fucking SAVE the board. Andy sixx poster has gone on since 2015. And then its filled with tons of other ritualfags and pol and porn.
>Chad warden has a wife and kids nowTime flies
>>737243285Even 20 years ago, we joked that it was /b/ with video games. Up until the mid-2010s, /v/ was always the secondary board after people came from /b/.>>737243334I think the greatest irony is that general culture really stifled a lot of dicussion on 4chan, and it started here back in late 07 because there were so many Pokémon threads, ranging from game threads, trade threads, to Pokégirl lewd threads, Pokémon doujin/indie game threads, Pokémon anime threads, that they were forced to coalesce into a general plus a minor allowance for occasional extras. All before they got their own board.Also the perpetuation of the -fag suffix due people like Chicken and his hatred for Kenshiro.
>>737243506ABAP

>>737243334>>regurgitating something from another website (twitter screencaps, OPs just copied wholesale from reddit)What's really ironic about this is that I remember /v/ throwing a fucking fit over sites like 9gag and Reddit taking content from here.

>>737243658>>left /v/ in early 2018 because the irony poisoning shitposting got REALLY bad (every post was cope, seethe, dilate or just the lowest of low quality)It really feels like everything on here got stuck in 2018, the same buzzwords and wojaks from back then still get regularly used today.
>>737230230How come the mods have never filtered BBC?
>>737243919Why would they filter British Broadcasting Corporation?
>>737237372EASILY the /pso2g/ guy that got janny status on here AND mod status in-game so he could just Stalin out other posters entirely. I think he also set another MMO general to autosage on creation but I can't remember which.
Go back to neogaf
>>737244025I miss when that was the only meaning "BBC" had to me.
Just look at the DSP thread, it used to be funny to laugh at the retard and go "huhuhu WAAOOOWWWWW" but now it's pure unfiltered mental illness.
>>737243605I think /v/ has changed somewhat with there being a lot more politics stuff on here, while 15 years ago /v/ was spammed with stuff like "COOL THREAD BUT CHECK MY DOUBLES", so much so that Moot permanently removed dubs from /v/ in early 2012.
>>737243658Holy fuck, I found the .webm.Call modern day /v/ what you want, but this period of vee was legitimately unusable garbage.
>>737244278It's incredible how fixated people will become on singlehandedly making sure their favorite lolcow can continue to exist as a human being solely to make sure the DANCE MONKEY DANCE ritual can go on for as long as possible.Motherfucker should've been homeless or dead years ago from being such a critical fuckup at life but he keeps getting bailed out by the freaks who see infinite fascination in one of mankind's biggest losers.Even worse, BECAUSE they keep this guy's livelihood alive, it's continued to have a very real, very negative impression on the videogame industry. There's suits who use this fucking idiot as a barometer for how dumbed down they need to make their game to appeal to the absolute lowest common denominator, and his increasing deterioration just means that bar can only continue to lower.Fucking insane, on a similar wavelength of insane as the fact an overwhelming majority of our problems today can be owed to the fact Lowtax banned furries and anime off of SomethingAwful.
>>737244315NTA, but I agree with you there. I think that's just a sign of 4chan as a whole once /pol/ superceded /b/ as the entrypoint for this place and the fastest board besides /vg/, and more generally a sign of the times overall. This is a problem with every board nowadays compared to pre-2015.I also think things are similar enough that someone who has been around the block for a few years can quickly adapt, fit in, and have the board feel familiar, but it is still very much different to how it used to be.
>>737233537What was your thread about, anon?
>>737244278I found DSP stuff funny years ago, but I don't pay attention to him now.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8PB2HCC2aQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj0N-GJZLMc
>>737244394I remember the Crash Team Racing threads from around that time being alright.
>>737244517ThisHappens all the time to anons who make OC
>>737244394I hate cancer.
Ok we all know this site sucks but at the same time what is personally driving you to come back here on a daily, weekly, monthly, yearly basis? It can’t be for the riveting, consistently intelligent discussion or original content or God forbid people actually getting together to play games. Pic unrelated.
>horseniggers spam the board with their gacha stealth generals for over a year>janny starts slapping everyone involved with the thread a day long ban instead of just the throwaway mobile ban avoiding OP>in less than 4 days the year long spam effort crumbles and they fuck off to another board
>>737245062Browing /v/ is fun :).
>>737245062I stalk an artfag here that's about it anymore
>>737230386baka desu sempai
>>737241024Also add a permaban for low iq niggers saying "should of"
>>737245119Same concept as banning goldsellers vs banning goldbuyers in MMORPGs.>>737245062I'm addicted to finding nuggets of gold in the endless piles of shit.also the STS2 lobbies have been great.
>>737245062every other site either shadowbans or actually bans any account i make after about a month due to how vocally antisemitic i am
>>737231418It should just be auto regulated. If two people quote eachother more than 3 times in an hour both should get a 24 hours ban imo.
>>737229773>PϾfatsis that word really censored?Edit: Holy fuck it is
>>737245062I've been here since early 2004. I certainly don't come as often as I used to, and there are sometimes huge gaps between bursts of activity. But it's been a part of my life longer than it hasn't. I'll never truly stop so long as it exists.Plus, I just find shitposting fun sometimes. Even though I am a functional part of society, have a respectable professional job, it's just fucking funny to shitpost and be able to derail threads from a couple of stupid posts, sometimes.
>>737245242why do you do that?
>>737245119Oh thats what happened? Based.
>>737245664You can easily tell some fatass was triggered by PϾfat
>>737245729boredom and I like his stuff
>>737245119Sounds good to me
>>737234587/r9k/s word filter came after the GG debacle and was created because robots kept making "you better not show up to school tomorrow" threads. The only interesting thing that came out of it were the threads that purposefully tried to find filters that haven't been used yet, things like "I am loved" "I had sex today" and "I have good parents" were sentences that weren't ever posted before.
>>737245062It's not like discussion on any other site is any better. Might as well stick to the place that doesn't require an account or anything.
Back in my day, we used to tip OP instead of calling him a faggot
>>737234446How exactly do you get muted here? The post gets automatically deleted?
>>737245119>>737245437>>737245762>>737245921>celebrating gross moderation abuse and the continued removal of video games threads from /v/ in favor of low quality engagement bait slop threadsCancer like you and the entire mod team are why this site is spiralling to its death
>>737246398>gachahorses>vidyaIm in favor of applying the same technique to all low quality stealth generals too tho
>>737246398It was a tranny circlejerk that was a combination of /soc/-tier faggotry and imagedumping, there wasn't any actual videogame discussion involved.
>>737246398>low quality engagement bait slop threadsYou mean exactly what the horse threads were?
>>737246532>baaaawwwwww it's not a video game because I SAID SO!Genuinely end your life.>>737246562You're (intentionally) confusing /v/ma with the general on /vg/. And that shit is precisely why /v/ma refused to go to /vg/. That is why all threads about games refuse to go to /vg/, it is the death of actual discussion.
>>737246747First off, gacha it's not vidyaYou are complaining not because it's a videogame but because your little echochamber for your friends got deleted, you are exactly the same as the other dozens of trash pseudo generalsFunnily enough you even call it /v/ma, you are literally admitting it's a general
>>737246398i would've been fine with the gachahorse threads if they were easily filterable instead of literally masquerading as actually interesting threads. too many times in the past couple of months have i clicked on a thread with an interesting topic only to be greeted with /vg/-like ritualposting and casino talk.
>>737233109Imagine if the no racism rule outside /b/ rule was actually enforced...
>>737247094>I SAID IT'S NOT A VIDEO GAME THAT MEANS IT'S NOT A VIDEO GAME I'M IN CHARGE HERE!!!!!!!lol>You are complaining not because it's a videogame but because your little echochamber for your friends got deleteddouble lol>>737247240Unfortunately the fag mod's autist sperg rage meant he was spending upwards of 16hrs per day f5ing the catalog for us so plain threads were basically not possibleStill easily shift+clicked away if you found they weren't what you were looking for, but apparently that's too hard for the mod and numerous fags like >>737247094, >>737245119 etc.
>>737247353It is, but only ones against indians. Wonder why. Would go to explain the downward trend in moderation quality in recent years.
>>737247353That would suck.
>>737247474Cry about it all you want I'm not the one who's friend group got sent to /vg/ lmao
>>737247240That’s kinda the point. They want people to see their threads and hopefully jump in to join, but you can’t really do that if people filter them. Thus you disguise it by not using the series name and an interesting topic and/or an image no one will get outside of those who know. That way, even if you are avoiding them, you’ll still join in either way
>>737247543Nah, there are koreans as well. Just posting that small dick emoji will catch you a three day.
>>737248135It wasn't done maliciously to keep people from filtering them, it was to evade the mod's faggotry because the fag has no life and will spend entire days sniping threads.
>>737248305You deserve to be sniped irl for your deceit
>>737240527how long are you
>>737229773don't forget the tale, nay, the legend of Phil Fish the original Indie Video Game celebrity >>737230230>blue /b/ is now crying for more moderation because they literally can't handle drinking their own piss anymoreya love to see it
>>737245119Finally lmao, get the fucking blue archive nigger general out next
>>737229773We also called Nintendo fans Nin+0ddlers
>>737247240>too many times in the past couple of months have i clicked on a thread with an interesting topic only to be greeted with /vg/-like ritualposting and casino talk.This is precisely why I feel no pity for gachafags. They have 2 fucking boards and yet feel the need to shit this one up.
Banning everyone that bumps spam threads is the only real way to kill them. If you are skilled and autistic enough you can avoid any filter or ban.t. old dedidated spammer
>>737248625Because it's all tribalism. They think they're "above" the generals on /vg/ and /vmg/ but they're literally the exact same kind of faggotry.
>>737248565Why didn't sonybros catch on? Sounded great to me
>>737229773So what platform did you play on if you were thin and white and an adult?
>>737248817yep, plus the negative elements are usually equipped with tools which allow them to evade anywaybut the "audience" are mostly tech illiterate retards
>dedicated schizos ruin half of any given thread for actual years>Mods finally do the bare minimum moderation>Schizos completely unimpeded>Meanwhile I couldn't post on my desktop for over 2 weeks and only phonepost unless I give them my emailNo wonder this site is dead as fuck
>>737248979same as with drm, legit users suffer while pirate are unaffected

>>737240619test1wtf, it is.test2>nintendrοne
>b-but OTHER threadsYou fags still don't realize the ONLY reason the Uma purge happened start to end was because that specific mod despises the game personally.They're not going to magically start enforcing the rules against the other 'enemies' on your list because it was never about the rules in the first place. It was purely for self-gratification.Janny's pet report spammer has already tried to repeat his 'success' with other threads but has been shunned every time because the ONLY reason he was being allowed to get away with what he was doing is because his interests and the mod's interests aligned. He has been tossed aside like a used cumrag now that he no longer serves a purpose.You are not getting the gratification you seek, because the mod is not getting any gratification from doing as you want.
>>737249276You really didn't need anything beyond the first paragraph, mate. tl;dr.
>>737249276Uma threads should be purged solely because they don't belong here.
>multiple day+ old threads are now common placeMods killed this site through no moderation and then bad moderation. Patience has limits.
>>737249375>Uma threads should be purged solely because I don't feel like they belong here.Thankfully your feelings had no bearing on the matter, only the mod's limitless potential for petty faggotry.
>>737249276didn't read horsenigger, glad at least you, personally, is gone
>>737249375There's a plenty of other threads that don't belong here yet never get touched. You should ask yourself why instead of being asshurt over a tribute to japanese horse racing so damn much you become blind to the other problems that are just as big if not even worse.
Onions was spammed so damn much the word needed to be filtered when it happened
>>737249509why is that an issue?threads on other boards last weeks
>>737249669>Theres other trash on the floor so that means this trash is ok to stayMaybe the mods and jannies should do their job and clean it up.
>>737249691Just like cuck.But for some reason they didn't remove the ꜱoy filter
>>737249643>you...is goneEEEEEWWWWWWWW BROWN
>>737249669You call it "a tribute to japanese horse racing" but not a video game, interesting.
>>737249691>>737249863Is to be honest family still filtered?desu senpai
>>737249691>>737249863Jannies are actual soilent-slurping faggots, so it offended them personally.
>>737249918Yes.Deserved t᠏b᠏᠏h. That nigger speak was getting out of hand
>>737249780But they won't, because it doesn't personally concern them.
>>737249881It's a fucking multimedia franchise that includes two games. Do you think yokai watch and idolmaster shouldn't be talked about on /v/ as well?
>>737249763Other boards are more niche which naturally generate slower discussions. Video games are not niche.24+ hour threads being the norm now indicates that not only are there less actual video game threads going on, but even the hot topic thinly veiled culture war threads don't get that much posters.>But that's a good thing isn't itIt would be but those ones are still the fastest on the board. So it's the same but traffic is heavily stagnated, which means the userbase is dying.
>>737248305isn't this what the 2hu faggots were doing too?
>>737250026I wonder when if ever they'll filter blicky
>>737250120haha your retarded threads got turned into glue, get fucked horse retard
>>737250278It's also what the Onirism cunts do. It's a tried and true strategy that works every time until a mod decides they hate whatever your threads are about.
>>737250120Well damn, we should have a multiple, 24/7 threads about Dragon Ball then since it's also multimedia. There were video games, who cares if 95% of the posts are off topic.
>>737250204The alternative is threads getting pushed off by garbage spam so there's really no winning
>>737231617So? Enforce the evading filters rule
>>737250426That's just it, they still are being pushed off by garbage spam, it's just that the spam moves slower too.
>>737249276don't careI'm glad it's gone
>h*llo rato is still censoredthis is hell
>>737230637To this day it's one of gaming's biggest psy-ops that Riot successfully introduced "MOBA" to avoid calling League of Legends "DOTA-like"

>>737250586butthurt horsefaggot
I'd like to know why mods are so grossly ineffective against pseudo tripfag schizos. You know the type, someone who doesn't use a trip yet is instantly recognizable because they are hyper fixated on a specific topic and show up to any thread related to that topic to ruin it. Everyone knows who they are, everyone instantly recognizes them, everyone hates them yet jannies never ever do anything to them.
>>737250120what even is the "gameplay" about?i've seen some people play at their phones and I just see numbers and spreadsheets
>>737250980>>737239273
>>737238147we are still there bro, threads are most of the time boring and slow but in exchange extreme cancerposting is at an all time minimun and since most of the surviving boards are modded by actual anon's and not glowies they do enforce the rules the rare times these are broken.
>>737250987Football manager roguelike. You have 75 turns to make the best trainee you can through training with mandatory races acting as stat checks along the way. Finished trainees are used in PvP or as parents for a different run to pass on specific skills.

>>737247474>JUST SHIFTCLICK LMAO!!!Yeah I'll just do that multiple times per day with your 4-6PPM totally-not-generals. The other threads are slow enough that if I don't want to see them, a shift click lasts for at least 2-3 days instead of a couple of fucking hours.
>>737249863I honestly think they’re just to lazy to remove or add filters
Anything to eke out a single win eh, horsefriends?
>>737251096tranny janny there is almost as bad as here + the userbase is 3.5 niggas total
>>737251221Ah yes, the other incredibly obviously false lie that only blind niggers use.

Console wars are preferable to the botted political racist shit happening every thread.
>>737230230>/r9k/ originality filterIt's fascinating how a restriction like that led us to incel culture. When you can't just post existing shit people tend to talk about their personal experiences more and on a board with social outcasts you just get bitterness and misery in imageboard form.
>>737251481Both completely derail any and all discussion because some spergs can't handle themselves. They're two sides of the same shit coin.
>>737250980Think of it from their point of view. They are probably not engaged with that particular game, so they aren't exposed to who's who. Issuing bans at two people pointing fingers at each other isn't ideal, especially when the shitposter is almost certainly ban evading anyway.From the draw threads that used to be here, anons would post proof of someone spamming so it was easier to see who's causing problems and who was a regular user.
>>737251481>political racist shitThis is the fault of LATAM ESL infestation by the way. Those fuckers LOVE their extreme edgelord humor.

>>737251581nah whitey is perfectly capable of shitting up everything with their victim complex propagated by the billionaires.
The hard truth is that a lot of epic oldfags from the pre-election, pre-phone era are currently annoying jaded faggots who were one-shot by the blue hair sjw in 2014 and now post indistinguishably from shartyfags and their favorite right wing twitter daddies.You must understand, there is no returning to how things ever were before.
Oh boy, kikes and jeets found the thread.
Just ban xshitter threads for 1 week. It will completely rejuvenate this board.
>>737251728God I know things would've always gotten worse, but I stand by that smartphones were the most damaging thing to ever happen to the internet.
>>737250980Your first mistake is thinking mods have the interest of the board at heart. Your second mistake is thinking mods are going to take the time to paruse threads to find repeated problem children.They literally do not care and typically only respond if there are enough reports. It is sometimes worse to have a mod that does "care" because he will influence the threads to his will.

>>737252298NTA but what's the problem with using a board designed around what you like? Clearly you enjoy animated horses so why not go to a place catered around it?
>>737252102Well yeah, because they were paid to let the shill threads take up key board space.
>>737252385I don't remember, but only because I've never entered a thread for either of those games. What's puzzling is that deltarune seems to still be allowed now? Maybe it was more explosive before

>>737251632It's not racism if you hate their culture.
Does it ever just hit you that the internet is dying? Maybe not in terms of traffic but spiritually and creatively speaking. And the reason its like that is people feel more demoralized and broken now than ever which means they act more demented and less likely to foster community anyplace they go.

>Video Game thread>Goes 404 with maybe 2-3 post>Random fucking nonsense thread>gets derailed into a policital shit throwing flamewar after 40 post>it's just 500 post of people calling eacher pajet, kike, jew, chink, shil, zog ect>hits bump limit and slowly goes to page 10
Just use an altchan
>>737255483Those get shat up by schizos also, but it's even more obvious because it's on a place with less than 100 posts per day.
>>737255478It's the type of shit that make you want to brutally strangle everyone who posts that garbage.
>>737229773>nintodylers filtered because of hurt feelingsalways makes me laugh
>>737255483No altchan can completely fill the void. Best one I ever tried was sushichan
>>737255562I still post on altchans. The problem is most people here don't. Sure the hack did kill alot of traffic for good but at the end of the day a sizeable portion returned.
>>737255478I think the worst thing is when a severely off-topic thread gets to 400 posts and then gets autosaged, which implies that the jannies know theres a dogshit thread and decide to just not delete it outright.

>>737252990>My magic gay pony franchise is not like the other magic gay pony franchise!
>>737255450Perfect propaganda machine.That also reminded me about a game called The Fabulous Fear Machine, cool concept but the execution could be better.Still worth checking out.
>>737255656They're definitely a good alternative for when the retardation here gets to be too much.
>>737230230>censorship is a good thing!Reddit is the perfect place for people like you
Nu-4chan has gotten so bad it unironically made me feel nostalgic about forums
I just want one /active/ altchan that rangebans India. Is that too much to ask?
>>737255283>MGS2>AI is used to curate information on the Internet so that society isn't drowned in meaningless gossip>IRL>AI is used to completely flood the Internet with so much nonsense that you can't even trust video you see with your own eyes anymore
>>737255478>fun off-topic thread relating to books, TV shows, cartoons gets hundreds of posts without interference from the usual suspects or trannitors
>>737255942>AI is used to curate information on the Internet so that society isn't drowned in meaningless gossipAnon, that AI was constantly lying to you. Today's internet was always the plan, and Kojima is a (((freemason))).
>>737255953Love some good old /v/ off-topic bread.
>>737255930you can rangeban india indirectly, by making the "imageboard" vr-only or whateveronly the people who can afford the hardware can join, it will filter 99.99% of thirdworld where $200 is a lot of money

>>737255953>peaceful off topic thread gets nuked after 200 posts>/pol/shit and goon thread stay up the entire time with jannies deleting posts they dont like.No fun allowed
