>Mods deleted the last threads

Maybe this board can't be saved. Mods are fucking dipshits who don't even read OP's or threads themselves, only how many reports a thread has.

Did mods really delete the last thread?

fuck off back to /qa/

I counted to 30 non-vidya posts before I got tired and saw I wasn't even 1/4th of the way through the thread.

No way Im reporting them all.

Why are Chris-Chan threads off-limits now after 7-8 years of being considered a board staple on Sup Forums? What changed about 2 years ago that makes the mods get all hot under the collar about him?

>I can't read
Probably a janny since I've already had two of these threads deleted and am not banned

ALRIGHT FAGGOTS. THIS IS EASY.

IS IT VIDYA? OK.
IS IT NOT VIDYA? NOT OK.

NOW APPLY IT:

VIDYA
>Consolewar threads / Falseflagging
>Waifu posting in general (AS LONG AS IT'S FUCKING VIDYA)
>Western vs Eastern dev/games threads
>Call-out posting (e.g. ">buying X shit game ever)

NOT VIDYA
>Sup Forums bait threads only loosely tied to vidya / Political flagging
>Twitter Screencap threads
>E-celeb threads

NOT APPLICABLE/WHO GIVES A FUCK
>No Poster ID
>No Dubs
>Phoneposting

DONE AND FUCKING DONE

JANNY NEEDS TO GET HIS HEAD OUT HIS ASS.

Not vidya, it's just "hurr dump porn and blog about imaginary relationships with fictional characters that happen to be somewhat vidya related"
>Call-out posting (e.g. ">buying X shit game ever)
Vidya but breaches rule 3

Because Sup Forums is overrun with shitposters that haven't been here that long.

>92 fucking phoneposters think their shit isn't killing this board.

user you're breaking a rule right now.

Rule 4: No repeated posting of the same thread over and over.

>encouraging consolewar threads at all
KILL
YOURSELF

MAKE A JAPANESE VIDYA BOARD

NOTHING WILL HAPPEN
NOTHING WILL HAPPEN
NOTHING WILL HAPPEN
NOTHING WILL HAPPEN
NOTHING WILL HAPPEN

Literally read the fucking OP.

This thread should be stickied for christ sake.

How about the fucking faggot fixes how slow servers are running here and how Mobile site of this place is unfucking browsable.

His story's taken a depressing turn around that time with Bob dying and all the tomgirl/tranny stuff. even if theydon't get deleted, the interst wouldn't be there anymore.

Funposting is one thing, shitposting is another. The balance is just shifting heavily towards the latter due to arbitrary moderation

That doesn't stop DoA threads. Or most Senran Kagura threads, the mods cant seem to decide on those.

JUST DELETE PRO-SONY THREADS

>and how Mobile site of this place is unfucking browsable.


Good, fuck phone posting and fuck phone posters.

The OP doesn't matter, you've posted this thread 4 times. Hiro says it can be 1 given thread any time, doesnt mean it the same exact one when the mods clearly deleted it.

Can we not only ban the people who post "If you don't reply to this..." images, but also ban the people who reply to them?

They're the ones enabling this fucking shit to happen all the time.

>Also can't read
Moderation is strictly agenda based on Sup Forums, I honestly don't care if I'm banned anyway, means I can't get roped into retarded arguments

>phone posters actually play games while browsing
Sorry faggot I actually enjoy video games.

>implying the odd DOAX thread is a bad thing

Fuck off to /lgbt/ homo.

meta threads are for the special kind of faggot that browses /qa/. fucking stay there, Sup Forums is shit enough without having to deal with your ahit

I dunno, the threads that do stay up by some miracle get posts in droves.

Remember that mods were deleting those threads back when he maced a guy in GameStop almost as fast as they were being made; people still find CWC amusing on some level.

They're stupid, but I don't see why people get so much more triggered by BOTSWANA than they do by roll charts.

Why do you idiots refuse to make a /vg/ general?

>should we not continue to not eat not dead babies?

I have been on Sup Forums since 2006.

Sup Forums has always been trash.

ALWAYS.

Try and prove my statement nonfactual lads.

>Breaks multiple rules to cry about someone who he thinks is breaking a rule but isn't

I'm not OP. Mod didn't delete it, it was Janitor going off reports. OP isn't Banned.

If OP gets Banned and threads stop then we know

1.Hiroshima doesn't fucking matter because mods rule the board independently of him.
2. Rules don't matter/Never mattered expect when scrutinizing the rules.

>mfw this poll proofs that the potus divided Sup Forums

he divided us

That is an extremely vague question, and that is also the excuse used by Sup Forums and other kind of faggots to post their stupid shit here.

Can we please get the shitty image dump threads off of here.
I'm talkin about DOA, Senran, and any other waifu thread, shit is literally worthless.
If you want images from your favorite series, go to pixiv, any booru, twitter, etc.

>tfw minority that likes e-celeb threads because of the false-drama that always ensues
e-celeb board when?

...

Why don't you fuck off to a safe space on reddit instead of wanting your internet board to be policed you fucking cuck.

Sup Forums is great because it was an anonymous rule free (or as rule free as you can get) discussion board.

Shitposting is the community self moderating a bad thread. I am sorry that your thread about the latest Ubi turd got shilled but you need to fuck off elsewhere to discuss trash.

I play games on my PC too.

No one browses /vg/.

point to where I mentioned anything about this thread breaking rules in my post. go on, I'll wait

I fucking wish. Waifufags shit up any thread they touch, just fucking look at this I don't even like LoL anymore but this is just ridiculous

/vg/ is a perfectly popular board.

>even with multiple answers the most popular vote only has 9%

>/vg/ is a perfectly popular board for Reddit scum

>Replying to a thread stating that you've reported or "saged" it, or another post, is also not allowed.
Also you're just shitposting, anyway.

Compare it to the people who voted disagree

Ban animefags.

/vg/ is useful as a containment board, but that shit still spills over into Sup Forums
I don't browse nor care for 99% of /vg/ threads

There are never more than five of those active at once, out of the 150 threads on the catalogue. And they're the most civil threads on the board.

You can live with 145 threads to shitpost about sonyggers or denuvo

shouldn't you be getting dubs somewhere kog

>4 times more people voted that Sup Forums is ruining the board as opposed to it not ruining it.

Here's the problem:
>Want to talk about game on Sup Forums
>Hurr go back to /vg/ with your cancer shit
>The game's general is either dead or nothing but waifuposting

>Muh racist pol is triggering me on vee

>implementing more rules when the established rules aren't enforced

Did you know that Sup Forums now moves faster than Sup Forums at all times of the day?

That is how bad it has become.

>Not vidya, it's just "hurr dump porn and blog about imaginary relationships with fictional characters that happen to be somewhat vidya related"

It depends on the quality of the thread. If it's the cancer you're describing, sure. But how about image dumps? Sprite work image dumps are allowed, are female vidya characters not? What if the thread isn't 100% cancer? I'm not sure if a blanket rule here works

>Vidya but breaches rule 3
Specifically what rule does it break? Trolling? I disagree. It can be a crass way of expressing an opinion. And in fringe cases like this Sup Forums has typically been lenient.


How new are you? As long as there's people passionate about vidya there will be console wars. Period. It's been this way since the fucking 90's.

If you want a tightly curated experience Sup Forums is not for you. Go to a fucking forum.

If you actually want to talk though, explain why console war threads are off topic/should be banned.

9% agree
2% disagree
89% dont give a single shit

>Is the only one on either side of the argument getting triggered
Almost nothing in the poll would even be occurring if mods did their job

Sup Forums is fine the way it is, and before you blow up on me with NO ITS NOT CONSOLEWAR- console waring has always existed, and been a staple of Sup Forums, the difference is it used to actually be filled with critisism and good thought out banter, now its just everyone calling each other a cuck.

So here what really has to happen. We need new words, and to permantently and utterly retire the current ones. I speak for everyone I'm sure when I say we're fucking tired of this half-assed cuck/bait shit.

So ban
Cuck, Kek, Sonnyger, Nintendrone, Xbot, PCfat/Mustard, Bait and all bait images, NEVER EVER, Magnus opus, lel and all variations there of, Meme in a derogatory sense, Blatant racial/political statements that have no business on Sup Forums, or the current discussion, Desu/senpai and all varations there of, Golface, Wojack, Pepe and all images pertaining to them, the Term idort, People shouldn't need a united term just to show they enjoy all forms of vidya. And heavy anime related images that do not have vidya based context.

Board will improve tenfold, and lets be honest, could you honestly get mad at someone if they called you something like a Giddy goober, or a fucking Gadsbogen? Or some other made up word? Just retire the last decade of bad shit and start fresh, it'll be good for the whole place.

if it's an image dump thread then I have no sympathy, if you want to have a discussion about the game, then yes I agree that saying "go back to /vg/" solves nothing

Shitposters will always shitpost, the post's content have nothing to do with their actual intentions.

...

>to cry about someone who he thinks is breaking a rule but isn't
>who he thinks is breaking a rule

where did I imply this anywhere in my posts? I couldn't give less of a shit if these threads are """""allowed""""", they are just going to make Sup Forums even shittier

Am I the only one that thinks maybe reddit is better for actual videogame discussion? Maybe it's a "grass is greener" thing since I haven't really been over to their subreddits but after years and years of

>APOLOGIZE
>This is X. Say something nice to them
>[Some group of people] BTFO
>What went right/wrong?
>What was their name again?
>What's their endgame

and a fucking litany of other, low effort, shit tier OPs I'm yearning for something more thought provoking.

How do you fix it? I don't want this place to be reddit, but I want to discuss videogames with anons. There are some good ones out there. I see pretty good threads once in a while but I feel like it just takes longer and longer to wade through shitposts than it has in times past.

Here's an example >It's an example of your typical shitty OP and yet the thread has 108 replies. Is the current formula just so ingrained in the board culture at this point that anons just accept this as the entry point for discussion?

How do you cut down on the shit?

>Sup Forums bait is at the top
Just like Trump.

Holy shit you're retarded. Learn how polls work.

No dubs is literally the only thing wrong with Sup Forums. I don't know why you kids even care about anything else, this board was always shit and I've been here since 2005. All the other things on that list will be replaced by other "board-ruining" posts soon enough, yet I still can't fucking check 'em.

Can we get a word filter for
>Pcuck
>Sonygger
>Nintoddler
>Microshill
>Cuck
>Trump

Almost all the shit in the OP is covered by pre-existing rules are just aren't enforced or are only enforced selectively for some reason.

In case you're retarded and need to be spoonfed: ALL of the options add up to 100%. It's not 9% of total voters, it's 9% of the total votes.

dubs were a good way to self-moderate. Shit/off topic thread? Check 'em bitch

Just fucking remove Sup Forums

Those first 4 are too specific for a global filter.

Ban VNs to /vg/ only.

You want to know how to fix Sup Forums? Stop trying to fix Sup Forums. Just let people post whatever video games they want here.

>b-b-but muh shitposting
"Shitposting" is a stupid fucking boogeyman. Yes, stupid posts exist, but 90% of "low-quality" posts are just regular posts that other people disagree with.

>b-but muh off-topic posts
This would be a valid point, except again 90% of "off-topic" posts are actually related to video games. If you don't want to read about vidya celebrities then don't click reply, moron.

>b-b-but muh Sup Forums
Again, another stupid boogeyman. Devs and critics are vidya related, and yes they belong here.

The fact is the moment Sup Forums started declining was the moment j00t started hiring hordes of janitors and mods to "fix" what was by far the best board on this site.

You're right but we'd rather it not get any worse

>SAGE ALL QA THREADS
>where did I imply this anywhere in my posts?

How about the 5+ cuckposting threads I keep seeing by the day? Is that under the Sup Forums bait threads?

if they gave a shit why didnt they vote?
they saw agree/disagree but chose to skip that one

Jesus

Poster ID? So what would that look like?

I put disagree on most, as shitposting takes many forms and simply banning the common forms will just change the formatting of them, and then we'll have to ban them, etc, then we'll just end up with a ton of banned shit.

My only original complaint would be that WEBMs do not have audio. Is that a resource issue or just something else?

>It's been this way since the fucking 90's.

This. Console wars are never going away, if you can't stand them literally fuck off.

I remember back when I was in junior highschool and the PS2/Xbox/GC were just getting released. Holy shit the shitstorms we had in the schoolyard having massive arguments over which system was better. Console wars have been a real life out of internet thing.

Funniest fucking thing was my friend was an Xbonerd and I was a Sonyponie at the time, and he was shitting on the PS2 so fucking hard and talking up the Xbox and how he was so exited to get one at Christmas. His mom bought him a PS2. I keked so hard at the faggot then went over to his place and played his PS2 games that I didn't have. He was a buttmad fucker about it. Then he went over to my other friends place to play his new Xbox.

Shit threads get saged. Are you really this fucking stupid?

nigga you retarded
Like seriously, you might want to get yourself checked.

see

Fuck off.

Disagreed with all your shitty poll choices. Sup Forums is fine as it is.

...

Reminder

>Whines about what he perceives is breaking rules
>But it's okay when I break the rules!
Jesus christ this is hilarious

Yeah but if they did people wouldn't be able to say "nigger", "kike" or what have you outside of Sup Forums

And if the mods cared about that rule people would cry even though it's among the old ones.

Mods need to decide if they wanna be selective or not

>removing a containment board so big that it still manages to permeate throughout the site
do you realize how big of a shitshow that'll be?

Define Sup Forums bait threads, because I think talking about a games messages and developers intent is perfectly fine it absolutely is related to the game regardless if people find it annoying.
Things like what is the "immigration ban of videogames?", is obviously just trying to start a politics thread about immigration on Sup Forums.

Read this post.

No, seriously, READ IT.

This was recently posted on Sup Forums. Whether it's real or just a troll, the message stays the same: Sup Forums is an ocean of piss. Trying to steer ANYTHING is pretty much impossible.

The only way Sup Forums will get worse is if its userbase gets worse. Contrariwise, the only way it'll get better is if its userbase gets better. No amount of rules or moderation will change this, because people will post whatever the hell they want to post regardless of the consequences.

Actually, I take that back. It CAN change, if:

- Bans actually meant something (which would get rid of 80% of Sup Forums's userbase)
- People were required to sign up (which would kill the site entirely)

I explained this before, "nigger" is heavily context dependent
"lol u dumb nigger" is not a problem
"fucking dumb nigger kikes pushing their agendas in my video games" is

see
Problem isnt console wars, its the quality of it. 90's console wars were two companies flat out slandering each other for competitive publicity. Please tlel me in what god forsaken world two children flinging made up words like cuck at each other, warrants a decent, healthy and competitive argument?

All that needs to be done is simply make Sup Forums read-only for mobile users.

Want to fix Sup Forums? Fucking hire new mods and trash ALL those retarded janitors
