ITT: We fix Sup Forums

ITT: We fix Sup Forums.
How? We find threads (other than the generals) that are unrelated to Sup Forums, and tell them to fuck off.

Remember to type "sage" in the "Options" box when posting.

The general recipe:
- In tech support threads ("hurr durr muh computer broke", "how do I install this?", "I need this program"), we post this:

From > Sup Forums is NOT your personal tech support team or personal consumer review site.


- We report consumerism threads, treat the OP as a spammer and tell posters to fuck off:

>> hurr muh hardware (GPU, CPU, ...) > your hardware
> Reported for spamming.
> STOP replying to the spam, fags.


- In threads that have their own generals/boards, we send them to their respective thread/board. For example,

> How do I install linux??!??!
> Muh desktop!
and so on.


What's the idea?
- We get used to reporting useless, spammy threads.
- We leave news threads and (real) tech threads.
- Also, we leave useful generals, since there is no need to remove them anyway.

Let's discuss how to fix Sup Forums ITT. This is my proposal.

CROSS POST TO /QA/

it's hopeless, give up. do you think we haven't been trying this the entire time? 95% of my shitposting budget is spent on telling these retards to fuck off, install gentoo, and other memes *in addition to* reporting/hiding/saging.

mods don't care ,certainly the shitposters don't care, everyone with a modicum of intelligence left years ago.

give up.

you sound a little upset

self-control should help us. but yeah, it's difficult.
thanks for your help. I sometimes tell people to fuck off to their threads/boards/ too

>everyone with a modicum of intelligence

uses filters

Every day carry/smartphone general

all cryptocurrency including bitcoin

headphones

unless those guys are already exciled from other less shitty boards for this exact reason

>If I make the same thread for the nth time, it'll surely make them stop posting!
Instead of sperging out, maybe try posting in a thread that could use some legitimate discussion.

Step one:
All weebs and man children to their respective board.
Step two:
Discuss any and technology.
Step three:
???????
Step Four:
Profit.

remove maki

Fuck off to one of the five thousand programming and linux threads.

I made it twice because someone told me it had some banned phrase and was autosaging

the whole idea is to discuss how we fix this technology board. propose something, criticize my post, whatever.

this

>computer hardware threads aren't technology
>daily threads about watches, headphones, and literal chink shit are acceptable technology

i want to get off mr meme's wild ride

steps towards """fixing""" Sup Forums
>release current Sup Forums MODS back into the wild
>acquire new MODS that are NOT FAGS like the previous herd

bump for support

Hey guys, let's have a thread about the PS4. It's a computer. It's hardware. It's technology!

>asshurt AMDrone cant get over the fact that his card turned out shit
Kek

It's literally a computer you fuck

>muh Sup Forums boogieman
Sup Forums is already shit because you faggots keep making one liner threads like "

I know, that's why I said it's a computer.

But do you know why we don't discuss the PS4 on Sup Forums?

The same reason we shouldn't discuss GPUs on Sup Forums

>he doesn't filter "meme", "windows", and "linux"

The difference being the PS4 is a literal gaming device. It serves no other purpose.

Then again, the point of the previous post was that it's unfair to single out hardware (GPU, CPU) threads and let the others (headphone, watch, chink shit, desktop) get a free pass.

It's not a one way road friendo.

>The difference being the PS4 is a literal gaming device. It serves no other purpose.

So incredibly wrong.

It's literally a computer.

Here, run linux on it wololo.net/2016/04/06/tutorial-running-ubuntu-on-ps4/

NOW

If you think the PS4 is a gaming device, then I would also say that a graphics card is a gaming device. Though both can be used for other things, their primary purpose is gaming

But we do discuss GPUs and PS4s.

>a thread about gamer RAM
>a thread about gamer graphix card

This is the spam we are trying to prevent. Get with the program!

Sup Forums posters are the man children yet OP made this image and thread

Lmao

...

the way to fix Sup Forums is not make it "hacker news after 6"

hacker news without the marxist moderation would actually be nice

The board is not getting better just because you are filtering 90% of the threads.

...

But you just said we don't talk about those?

This is consumer tech, isn't it? Sup Forums rarely talks about the hardware, that's mostly Sup Forums.
GET WITH THE PROGRAM!

Actually, it is. I can focus on threads where meaningful discussion is taking place much more efficiently when I have filters. Thus contributing to good threads on Sup Forums, thus making the board better

I said we "Shouldn't" talk about those things.

And the PS4 is consumer hardware too.

Sup Forums talked about it a lot when it first came out. GPU discussion should be in Sup Forums

>what are filters
Kill yourself autistic fag.

The mods are the problem. Somehow the power structure got FUCKED here and I think it has to do with Asian moot making deals with hardware/software companies to allow shills (if they exist) or to mine data to get trending opinion on a product. I will probably be banned for this, I have been banned for saying a lot less.

>desktop
>worksafe gif
???

it's or

But GPU isn't video games. GPU is computer components

Fair enough. Maybe if more did it would make a difference

>Actually, it is. I can focus on threads where meaningful discussion is taking place much more efficiently when I have filters. Thus contributing to good threads on Sup Forums, thus making the board better

If *anyone* used their GPU for *anything* other than games here I moght agree with you.

>computer hardware threads aren't technology
when seen from the point of consumerism... it isn't. do you see people talking about GPU modding and other stuff? these threads are about BUYING GPUs, and comparing them for >muh gaymes

>OP made this image and thread
dumbass

THIS, people don't seem to understand that filtering is not a solution. most people here come to discuss consumer products, NOT technology, and filtering won't help.

just no Sup Forums

That's what happens when you spam weeb-shit porn on a blue board.

>But GPU isn't video games

Neither is a PS4. How is this not getting through your thick skull? An Xbox controller is not a video game. It is a piece of technology that you can hook up to a computer. Discussion of it belongs on Sup Forums though

I vote we boot homescreen threads too.
Auto sage Sup Forums chan daisuki
Auto sage maki threads
Delete any thread that starts with an anime image, or auto sage(anime reaction images are fine in the thread though)

Thoughts?

Look Sup Forums, just because your board is Sup Forums 2.0 or Sup Forums 2.0 doesn't mean Sup Forums is.

I'm not the one complaining about discussing a recently launch computer part.

>hurr durr it's just a computer part

Read these posts

So we can't talk about CPUs or SSDs or Motherboards either because gamers use those?
You sound insane.

Honestly simply ignoring a thread is better than saging with a truly pointless post like "fuck off with this shit go to Sup Forums" because even if you sage, someone will inevitably reply with a bump, and then your post only moved the thread two posts towards the bump limit, which most threads don't even come close to anyway (disregarding generals, which are going to get re-made).

My god you're a stupid fuck. Yes you can install Linux on it, so fucking what? It's made for games, and graphics cards aren't only for gaming, that's just one of their many purposes. The PS4 was designed with one thing in mind, and that's games.

OP is getting fucking slaughtered

I bet he had dreams of this being a huge thread with everybody agreeing with him

lol what the hell
this might as well be my first time back on this place since i was in highschool and even when we were mostly all open pedophiles we had tons of uh what gfx card buy etc etc threads, just gotta find your own special way to enjoy them :) :) :)
;)

He's delusional. Probably somewhere high on the spectrum too.

We can discuss those because they're MAIN PURPOSE is not for gaming

this is why I use filters

Graphics cards were also made for gaming

fuck off Sup Forums

Why isn't this user a mod yet? He'll make Sup Forums great

who is this semen demon

>graphics cards were also made for gaming
You're fucking retarded. Graphics cards back in the day were called GPGPU, an acronym for General Purpose Graphics Processing Unit. They're meant for any kind of graphical processing. Games aren't the only kind of graphical processing done when using a computer.

do you not understand the difference between a spammy thread made by fanboys/marketing people, and a thread discussing technology? it's quite clear, m8

OP here. wut? I've only made a few posts, and most people ITT agree that we need more control.

see >THIS, people don't seem to understand that filtering is not a solution. most people here come to discuss consumer products, NOT technology, and filtering won't help.
same argument applies. ignoring the problem won't solve it.
it's true that generating more discussion won't make it go away, but people WILL leave if there are told once and once again.

I think cryptocurrency and smartphone threads should be allowed under the condition that they're actually taking about the tech behind it and not just showing off what they bought or asking if they should buy bitcoin
"What should I buy"/general consumerism with no substance threads should either be confined to one thread or banned outright

Anime website

speaking of which i'm here in case anybody has any good tips on where to find the lolicon vr devs i want to work with them
thanks

See

Pretending to be a programmer isn't technology either, you weeb faggot.

How about getting a janitor? I knew Sup Forums doesn’t have any mod but now I’m suspecting even worse.

I applied to be a janitor twice. I'm pretty sure they tossed it because I said I cared about the quality of the board.

>tells me to see a post about the PS4 in reply to one about GPUs
Wow you really are retarded

>WAAAAHHH YOU'RE A MANCHILD THIS INFANTILE INFOGRAPHIC I SPENT HALF AN HOUR MAKING ESPECIALLY FOR MY CHINESE MECHATOY FORUM PROVES IT

what's your post history like

The post I pointed you to is illustrating a point.

Just because a piece of hardware can technically be used for more than games DOES NOT MEAN that it should be discussed on Sup Forums

I believe you because this board is progressively getting worse

mostly just helping people with programming in dpt and the occasional thread outside of that. Occasionally asking for help with linux in flt

Alright, so let's ban everything about computers and software. Everything in both those categories can be related to gaming, science, literature, math. Let's relegate all those topics to /sci/, Sup Forums and every other board on this site and leave Sup Forums empty. Is that your solution?

see MAIN PURPOSE!

CELLPHONEFAGS ARE WORST

>people WILL leave if there are told once and once again
Have you been on Sup Forums for more than a day?

The main purpose of GPUs is not gaming.

So an Intel gpu is mainly for gaming?
You can't use an AMD a8 7600 for general desktop use? People rely on r7 240 gpu for gaming where you're from?
You can't use AMD graphics for compute?
You can't use nvidia graphics for cuda?

Compare Gentoo compilation times between an i7 and a C2D. Seriously. See

See OP image. See any thread on Sup Forums about graphics cards. See any website that sells graphics cards, usually labeled as "Xtreme gamer edition" and bundled with CoD

You can install Ubuntu on a PS4. That doesn't mean we need to discuss the PS4 on Sup Forums.

Make a CUDA thread if you want. But this Sup Forums spam has got to go

See

We don't need to, but we can because it's still technology.

>chink shit
It's mostly technology. And dried mangoes.

>watching movies
>any amount of image/video editing
>general processing while using the computer
>in-browser hardware acceleration
All uses for GPUs. Not only gaming. Fuck off with your shit argument.

>we can because it's still technology.

That's where you're wrong. See, technically video games are technology. So are cars, bikes, and guns. But BECAUSE THESE THINGS ALREADY HAVE THEIR OWN BOARD, their discussion is not allowed here

and cheap lemons and pineapples, and horse carcasses

>watching movies
>any amount of image/video editing
>general processing while using the computer

nope, cpu

>in-browser hardware acceleration

for in-browser games?

ok but what board do i ask which LED fans i should swap into my gfx card

Trying to change something so deeply embedded in the mindset of this website is not a task that is going to be accomplished with a few people sageing.

Sup Forums is not the place to be for meaningful discussion of anything.

Yes but video games have their own board.
This is the board for consumer technology, which includes graphics cards and computers like the ps4 or alienware laptops.

Following your logic:

CPUs are used for

>physics simulations, /sci/
>game processing, Sup Forums
>video decoding/encoding, Sup Forums

Among many other uses. Thus, they don't belong on Sup Forums. Give it up faggot.

>This is the board for consumer technology, which includes graphics cards and computers like the ps4

He's not wrong though. You're just a shitty troll.

One goal at a time, Marcos ;-)

IMO, A /consumer/ board would solve many problems.
I keep repeating the same shit: Sup Forums should have a dedicated consumerism board. In fact, Sup Forums could even profit from it, by adding/modifying referral/affiliate links. That way, everyone would win.

The fuck are you on about

Bring back public sage.
