What the FUCK is happening to this board
WHY is there a giga SEGA drone shitting out forty threads a minute
Can we just talk about Wave Race or something? Do you prefer Wave Race, Pilotwings 64, or 1080? In terms of arcadey N64 titles, I mean.
>>
It's our bi-daily spam. Anyway Wave Race is SEGA-coded.
>>
>>12104242
Some old guy is geniunely asshurt about this board not accepting his forced memes and for liking Nintendo consoles so he resorted to spam this sega shit whenever he doesn't take his ritalin.

Wave Race 64 is the best water racing game, still in 2025.

>Wave Race, Pilotwings 64, or 1080? In terms of arcadey N64 titles, I mean.
WR for sure it's the one I love the most, though I must admit I eventually appreciated 1080 a lot, as a kid I didn't care about snowboard and thought the snow setting was boring/too same-y, visually at least.
I revisited it again as an adult and completed it (landed a 1080 and unlocked everything), it was a very fun experience and has that distinct EAD polish that WR also has.
But still WR for me.
Pilotwings 64 is really good but the hang glider filtered me as a kid, it requires patience, which most kids don't have.
Loved it more as an adult as well, the jumping shoes are so fun to use, I wish I had access to that as a kid. It's a really fun mechanic and weirdly I don't think any other game ever replicated it.
>>
>>12104242
I'm impressed. It's now over 50% of the entire catalog.

To eliminate persistent shitposters, a rangeban is needed, and 4chan doesn't bother with rangebans. 4chan tends to develop filters to automatically ban the spammer when they post, like that one /b/ spammer who kept posting that politician's picture, or that pedo who was running a message board who kept advertising on /b/. They only do it for major boards with high traffic though, for a smaller board like /vr/ they'll just send a janny to clean it up after half the board gets wiped.
>>
>>12104396
Now it's about 75% of the entire catalog

It would be less sad if it weren't so predictable. Same time every time. The spam would be better if it were funnier too but we can't even get that because 4chan doesn't attract funny people just whiny fags.

The mods unarchived the threads he bumped off the catalog once...and never again.

84 threads now, or 56% of the catalog.

jesus fucking christ jannies do your job

>>12104550
he's also bumping his own threads

The funny thing is when mods finallt wake up and clean it, /vr/ keeps going as usual. Nobody talks or thinks about his spam except when he wastes all the time and energy spamming. It's so boring and forgettable.

how do you retards genuinely believe this in spite of the incessant eric spam? i've only seen maybe two "anti-nintendo" anons in all my years here and they were both blatant falseflags. where do you fuckers get it in your heads that "anti-nintendo anons" are the problem? is the fanboyism that blinding?
>>
>>12104413
true. i lurk /mu/ and there was a somewhat similar extreme retard who really hated Frank Zappa who would shit up the board for like a year. except instead of spamming threads he spam-replied like the same 5 threads till bump limit.
>>
>>12104752
There's a guy on /g/ who hates Lunduke so bad that if anyone even mentions his name he spams the thread with gore and cp. He seems to be online 24/7.
>>
>>12104678
>>12104691
jannies aren't watching 24/7, notify them with reports
>>
>>12104817
Took them like 2 hours to respond to reports.
>>
>>12104817
are you unironically implying that nobody has reported the posts right now?
>>
>>12104819
>>12104821
I was responding to posts claiming that ignoring the problem is a solution.
>>
>>12104817
I literally ran out of the allowed number of reports TWICE, and still didn't get every spam thread. They don't give a fuck.
>>
>>12104838
neither post you responded to said that
>>
>>12104838
Not everyone wants to report 30 threads and then sit on their thumbs hoping it's their turn for moderation to grace their board.
>>
Apologies in advance if this is a retarded suggestion, but for the next time this happens, would it not be good to focus on bumping every non-spam thread to keep the spam threads at bay, starting with the ones on the last page so they don't get deleted?
>>
>>12104349
Wave race is like splashdown for kids lol
>>
maybe they should make a new tier of lesser janny where you don't have to give hiro any personal info and all it does is send your reports to the top of the queue for whatever few jannies they have to immediately act on without having to go through thousands of "I reported this guy because he hurt my feelings" reports

He did this before, but this time I took screenshots before and after his spam was deleted to have an idea of how many threads were killed
We really need some sort of filter preventing the creation of threads with the words S*g* S*st*m
>>
>>12104889
yeah, spammer totally couldn't just change 1 letter and bypass the filter
>>
>>12104893
He won't do it because the entire point of his spam is using the specific phrase
>>
>>12104861
Not a bad idea actually
Bump every legit thread at the bottom of the catalog until only spam threads are at the bottom so only these spam threads get killed when a new thread is created
>>
>>12104847
>hide every spam thread

How many threads were there before the nuke? About 2 hours ago I had 86 threads hidden but I knew there were more; didn't hide them because I was busy at work.
>>
>>12104959
IIRC the board has a capacity of 150 threads
>>
>>12104970
Yeah but how many spam threads were there
>>
>>12104981
Doing very simple math from the aftermath screenshot above:
>150 thread capacity
>minus 59 legit threads left after the cleanup
91 spam threads
>>
>>12104981
Based on desuarchive, exactly 100, or 2/3 of the catalog. And that's the DELETED ones, because 2 are still up for some reason.
>>
>>12104995
>2 are still up for some reason
Mods are currently busy actually restoring legit threads that were pushed off the board

hey it could be worse, last time we had a constant spammer in /m/ i actually got banned for reporting the spam more than once a day

I recently bought a copy of Wave Race 64. Haven't played it yet though, except to test the cartridge.

Today I made my first attempt at playing through another recent acquisition: Super R.C. Pro-Am for the Game Boy. It was fun enough, and was about what I expected: R.C. Pro-Am, but portable and harder to play because you can't visually identify powerup items very easily. (Everything lying on the track looks very similar when you're driving swiftly past it on that blurry little four-color screen.)

Auster is australian. He earned his nickname because he was mad about Nintendo and he used Sega's perceived more popularity on PAL regions (where he is from) as a way to shitpost using a Nintendo rival, but his real fandom lies on microcomputers, his very first apparitions on the board was on retro PC threads where he seethed about anons discussing japanese PCs instead of shit like Spectrum (which later prompted the oi me meme, which was a response the board had to him losing it during a Famicom thread where he spammed Speccy games claiming they were better)
>>
As a first step I noticed that they now actually restore the threads pushed off by him.
Earlier that wasn't the case, they were too lazy to do that, which still after the threads getting deleted and him getting banned let him look over the catalog and proudly(?) see the result "of his work", with the catalog being only 5 pages long or so.
Now after the inevitable banning and deletion it changes basically nothing.
But he will probably still do it. What a sad life.

>>12104242
This Mario Kart 64 and OoT were my introduction to 3d gaming and I can still remember the feeling playing Wave Race 64 (and especially MK64) and it was so damn fun. If I had a gripe w either game it’s the lack of unlockables, yet I still put hundreds if not thousands of hours between Wave Race, Mario Kart, Diddy Kong Racing, and Beetle Adventure Racing. Also the physics in this game are well beyond even the GameCube version iirc. Anyway the waves even to this day and the way it interacts w your jet speed is as technological miracle.
