/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Why the hell would we need an otaku culture board?

He's mentioned this before.
Basically, because the silly /v/irgins want it. Rather than moderating better and getting people to condense their threads (and not make shit ones about being forever alone), he just gives /v/ faggots anything they want because it's his favorite board.

Look at how many stupid board jokes they've had over the past week or two alone. Like, TWO.

Because /v/ is a bunch of babbies, and moot can't be fucked to hire good mods over his normalfag friends. So instead of actually fixing the problem he's just giving into them.

Moot is the worst site owner ever.

Fuck yeah can't wait for Suju threads.

>>8561457
M-maybe /jp/ can have a joke board. In it we can discuss Touhou or something.

>>8561450
So that /v/ can go back to being about 100% not video games once the sc2, fightan gaem, lol/hon/dota2, etc. generals leave.

Besides /jp/ isn't necessary either, it's just /a/ hipsters who think /a/ is too mainstream. It's not like talking about VN's on /a/ is wrong.

>>8561468
>It's not like talking about VN's on /a/ is wrong.
They usually have shit taste, or latch on to anything /jp/ plays.

>>8561468
>It's not like talking about VN's on /a/ is wrong.
Were you even here?
/a/ is the anime and manga board. Trying to restore that was one of the few things moot did right.

>>8561477
Well no shit. It's not like there's a wide variety of newly translated titles.

>>8561486
Thanks for pointing out the obvious while calling me out on pointing out the obvious.

>>8561477
and /jp/ doesn't do the same? it's just the same ones copy pasted over and over, people whining about others not getting translated fast enough, or bitching about katawa shoujo. All of which can and already is done on /a/. So seeing as this irrelevant board already exists we might as well just try and make it a contest to see if we can get twice as many boards as 2ch

>>8561489
if it's obvious why did you complain in the first place

Jesus, can't they make a /kg/ for starcraft and korea general? The last time I saw a e-sports thread it was filled with k-pop and idolcrap.

>Korean board
nOOOOOOOooooooo


Can you imagine a board more autistic than /jp/?

>>8561490
No, it doesn't. Go read any VN general. People discuss a huge variety of titles, both translated and untranslated.
http://fuuka.warosu.org/jp/?task=search&ghost=&search_text=%22You+know+the+drill.%22

Yes there are the odd idiots and trolls like on any 4chan board, but stop being so ignorant. It's like you're assuming these problems exist to support your own argument.

So you're saying we can rid ourselves of idolfags and that kimchi kid? I see nothing wrong with that, the esports board seems a bit much though.

>>8561501

>korean board

oh god, I cannot even begin to fathom the QUALITY of the posts that would go on that board.

>>8561501
If we lose that title, I think we'd lose what little identity we have left as a board.

The Korean board had better be called /nida/.
Or perhaps /cor/. But I like the idea of 4chan's first 4-letter image board being dedicated to Coreans.

I don't use AIM. Can someone go there for me and tell him to shut down /jp/?

If Korea gets their own board, how about they make a Japan board too?
I mean, I feel 4chan should get one of those first.

>>8561524
We have both. In fact, we have both twice:
>>>/int/
>>>/trv/
Neither are so overflowing with Japan/Korea threads that they need their own boards.

moot needs to condense boards, not add more. Merge /int/ and /trv/. Maybe shuffle around /o/, /n/ and /trv/. Delete the superfluous boards like /sci/ (we already had a /sci/ when he added it). I don't know.

I hope he means Corean board.

>>8561524
If you ask moot if posting Japanese stuff on /jp/ is fine, he'll say "yes, they're just being dumb".

>>8561524
If we get a /corea/ you can expect a sticky here directing all worst corean stuff there, and probably rules allowing japan general stuff here again. Personally I hope /b/ keeps the corea board a forever best corea discussion place.

So many people from /a/ here, it hurts.

I recall this old idea, posting on /a/ gets you auto-banned from posting on /jp/ for a while (and vice versa). I'd like this implemented for a while, if only as a test.

Moot's referring to the same board when he says Corean and Esports. It will be called >>>/sc2/

And there is still no Apple board to keep faggots off /g/? Fuck you moot, fuck you with a fork you cunt.

>allowing japan general stuff here again
>again

But it's already allowed, you fucking autist.

INB4 South and North Korean troll wars on the new board.

>>8561538
I like it. Make it happen, moot.

>>8561538
Sounds like more effort to make work than Moot is probably willing to do.

meido what the fuck are you doing?

>>8561538
Get over it. The boards are extremely close to each other in content and have always shared a userbase.

I will ask Moot to make a Slav board so fellow /slavs/ can talk about anything there, including Touhou. It will be best board on the 4chan.

>>8561538
I've actually suggested this to moot, though I extended it to /b/ and /v/ too.

>>8561541
/g/ is pretty active, but Apple threads go there. I've seen people there suggest threads for /gnu/ and /mac/ and whatever, but why? Just make "general" type threads and see them as self-contained boards. /jp/ does this fairly well and you guys would do well to learn from us.
Also encourage the teenage /v/irgins to lurk more. Your already pretty shit board has gone to more shit because of 17-year-olds asking what "gayman rig" to buy or how to pirate Windows without using Google.

>>8561538
Typical neo/jp/sie a.k.a. new graduate from /a/

>>8561550
That would make my month if you got him to do it.

>>8561544
But not for mrvacbob-sama!
(who DOES the work)

>>8561555
Because Macs are both /fa/ and /g/ so he should create /fag/. But all joking aside anyone who posts Apple products on /g/ and they're looking to troll, when it's posted suddenly the whole thread is derailed and everything is screwed up. Winfags and GNU/Linuxfag can get along though.

>>8561545
Threads related to Japan don't seem to last very long.

I sense a war between the /nida/ board and /jp/
Brace yourself /jp/edos

>>8561562
>who DOES the work

>>8561568
The userbase doesn't give a shit about Japan, so naturally Japan threads don't really get much posters.

Officially, we're a Japan board. I probably have the screenshot of moot saying posting stuff about Japan here is fine somewhere on my computer.

I emailed him about the shitposter group, maybe he'll do something about them.

Worst case scenario, he'll just ignore the email, so why don't you guys email him too?

>>8561567
You're fucking retarded if you think Macs should get their own board, although a /fag/ board would be pretty cool so we can keep the pony retards out of our boards.

Mac vs PC threads should be considered as troll threads and nothing else. The OS/text editor/browser/video card wars is something that defines /g/ and shouldn't be taken as trolls, that's how we used to be.

Putting that theme aside, it's because of faggots helping /v/ with their gaming rigs that /g/ went to shit. Fuck I liked that board.

>>8561567
Then that's a problem with the userbase. I haven't been to /g/ properly in years, but I lurked there a few months ago and there was a guy called "Macfag" who made an "ask me anything" thread. It had over 200 replies from people who simply had to flame him and bash Apple or whatever. I'm not a fan of Apple or its products, but a few teenagers getting butthurt about people posting about something they dislike when it's board-related is NOT cause for a new board.

Tell people to lurk more and take it easy. If it helps, read through some old Usenet FAQs and try to regain a feel for what netiquette truly is. You're a technology board, you should be the best at this stuff.

>>8561582
They barely post anymore. Stop being insane.

>>8561547
>Have always shared a userbase

Only they didn't. From the spring/summer of '08 to the late '09 there was pretty much no interaction between the two boards, aside from occasional raids. And then neo/a/ found out about VNs and the flood started.

>>8561582
If by ``shitposter group'' you mean the steam group, I'm curious as to what you think moot can do (and you need to realize that only a few of them are actual shitposters, most people in that group think it's ironic).

>>8561582
I emailed him when it was still relevant.
Probably didn't read it.

>>8561580
No, kind of like how Pokemon was with /v/. /v/ started bitching so moot made /vp/. There were so many trolls that it actually attracted Poketards to the community. That is what is happening to /g/ with Macfags.

>>8561566
It's mida...

>>8561587
> From the spring/summer of '08 to the late '09
I'm sorry--did you just claim that in the earliest days when /jp/ was first created, there was "pretty much no interaction" between /jp/ and the board it was split from?

>>8561587
Yes, please tell me more about this make believe world of yours.

>>8561584
I used to lurk /g/ 10-12 hours a day, I'm pretty sure most people who do this know netiquette.

It's because of helpful retards that /v/ and /v/ (even /a/) comes to /g/ asking for tech support.

/g/ is not /g/ anymore, it's just a bunch of faggots asking retarded questions.

>>8561575
>Officially, we're a Japan board.

Did you somehow miss the name/description change? It happened, what, two years ago?

>>8561598
Macfags were trolls 95% of the time.

And mods can manage those cases. I haven't seen a religion thread on /sci/ for months because mods are doing their job.

Instead of creating a new board that will attract fucktards from macrumors, mods should do their shit.

>>8561592
He could get some of their tripfags range banned. If you check the archive you'll see most of them never left.

>>8561587
This, aside from the occasional "tear down this wall" shit we mostly ignored each other. That was an attitude /jp/ tried to keep too, simply ignoring /a/ aside from when it showed up here. This recent mixing is the only thing that changed that. Which is a shame, but that's the way things are.

/ostalgie

>>8561598
From what I've gathered, that was because there were a lot of Pokémon threads taking over the board.

Right now there are 160 threads on /g/. Only two mention Apple products, and only one is entirely dedicated to Apple (and it's a "reasons to not like Apple" thread at that). For one of the world's largest technology companies, I'd say you have it pretty good if you religiously boycott and hate Apple.

>>8561568
Most threads related to japan are "Hiroshima was revenge for pearl harbour" troll threads.

>>8561599
>>8561603
You weren't here by then, were you?

>>8561628
­>>8561599 here. I was, but I don't see what you're claiming. The /jp/ userbase didn't spring up from nowhere. We all came from /a/ (though I wasn't a heavy /a/ poster/lurker at the time). If you look through the archives right up until later in 2009, we shared a lot of tripfags and namefags. Sometimes /a/ threads were brought over to /jp/ and sometimes /jp/ threads were taken over to /a/. I'm not saying these are necessarily good things, but they did happen and I don't understand why you're claiming something so bizarre.

>>8561628
If you were here then you would realize the majority of the users were from /a/.

Korea - For E-sports, competitive gaming, and GEE GEE GEE BABY BABY

>>8561647
>We all came from /a/
Most, for sure, but not all. I came over from /tg/, for example.

I think moot should either re-merge /a/ and /jp/ or enforce the rules of both boards and actually try and make /a/ Anime and Manga and /jp/ Japan/General. The latter will never happen.

>>8561665
That's not something to brag about.

>>8561673
While meido is really doing a decent job, we're basically anime/random now, and fill a necessary role becuase of it.

Maybe we'll be moderated again, and get our board back, but that's unlikely.

>>8561665
yah, I came over from other websites that had literature stuff before 4chan existed cause I love reading and was interested in vn's (I love vn's cause as a heavy novel reader, I find them much better on average than novels, excluding nukige, etc. , you wouldn't believe the shit that gets published), however from here I got some interest in manga and thenn anime

>>8561660
i.e. Autism

>>8561684
You sure love exaggerating.

>>8561665
I was actually a fa/tg/uy too. As I said I visited /a/, but it was by no means my "main" board.

>>8561677
/tg/ was fantastic. It was one of the least /b/-with-a-theme boards and people made some cool stuff and had great discussions. It became pretty bad quite early on which is unfortunate, but it was a nice place for its first year or two. We even had Touhou threads which were pretty fun and civil.
I'm not sure what it's like now though. I hear they got a pretty bad mod.

>>8561673
/a/ is like on topic all the time unless someone is raiding, like /v/ was the other night,
/jp/'s topic inn general has never really been defined
basically we should just make one manga board, and one anime board to lower the speed, shit 404's there in like 5minutes
and then we can turn /a/ into a whole board about accelerator

PS I'm not accelspammer

>>8561684
The current situation is that both /a/ and /jp/ are pretty much Anime/Random, but with different userbases. It's like two different communities with the same theme, but in the same website.

>>8561702
/a/ has VN threads, Japanese threads, Imouto threads, fig threads, all kinds of unrelated shit.

>>8561647
>We all came from /a/

And never looked back. I was actually one of the people who tried to stay on /a/ for a while after the split, but all the Geass summer made me give up rather quickly. Others were the same, or at least claimed to be. /a/ was unbearable, we wanted nothing to do with it.

>Sometimes /a/ threads were brought over to /jp/

...and treated as the trolls they were.

>>8561702
I don't know when exactly it happened, but at some point it started being okay to blatantly wave around that you're still an offboarder. I don't even know why you're here, or what point you're hoping to make.

>>8561702
>basically we should just make one manga board, and one anime board
I've always thought this. There's overlap between the two--there's no denying that--but look at websites like 4-ch. Separating anime and manga works really well, and you can have parallel threads running that reference each other (may not work so well for a board that purges though).
Since /a/ has a lot of traffic, I suggest moot return to 4chan's routes a little by adding/splitting more Japanese media boards. Namely /a/ - Anime, /ma/ - Manga, /ln/ - Light Novels.

>>8561701
>with different userbases

It's not true anymore. Just look at this thread.

>>8561712
It does, fuck, the most I've ever run into is like 1 figure/buying thread like once every 5th visit, keep in mind I don't 4chan much, I've been coming to 4chan for like 5-6 years and hell I think I barely started posting like 3 or 4 ago

>>8561717
I think you should take that idea to moot, through either AIM or e-mail. Although I believe a /ln/ wouldn't have enough traffic and could stay in /jp/ along with doujin games, visual novels and Touhou, different boards for anime and manga would probably be very good.

a Korean board will only worsen 4chan.
Just imagine how much shitstorm would be created with /a/ and /jp/...

>>8561697
/tg/'s current mod has a harsher reputation than he deserves.
He's quite heavy-handed, and /tg/ moves slow enough that he rarely just "misses" threads, but he's far, far better than the one /tg/ had immediately after the "4chan show" cross-board fiasco who declared that all OC was an on-sight permaban.

>>8561723
Well, although I'm sure I'm probably an exception, I myself do browse night time /a/ (mostly as a lurker), even though I would say /jp/ is my main board. I don't go waving my dick as a /ajp/ or whatever, though.

>>8561730
> Although I believe a /ln/ wouldn't have enough traffic
I was thinking that, though I thought it might be better merged with the manga board. /mln/ - Manga & Light Novels or something.
Not having a lot of traffic isn't a bad thing though. In fact it suits a board dedicated to LNs since a lot of people will be reading through them and it fits long-term discussion better.

It's not esports, it's ESP Orts.

>>8561741
sounds like /ln/ would be well suited as a text-board.

Well, the smart people don't really use 4chan anymore since there are plenty of stable and active alternate IB's floating around these days.

I can honestly say that I will officially be done with 4chan if anything were to happen to /jp/ since it's the only damn reason to visit this festering shithole of a site these days.

I think it's bad enough that I associate this site more with horrible things like Reddit these days than anything else.

>>8561741
I am not saying that not having enough traffic is bad. In fact, "not enough traffic" by 4chan standards is actually lots of traffic, for most imageboards. What I wonder is, would moot bother to create such a niche board? I don't think he would. Merging Manga and Light Novels? I see your point, that would be roughly half of /a/, but I don't think these two are really related at all (but then, so are Touhou and VNs, and look where we are). It probably could work.

>>8561738

this

>>8561741
At best it would take me three hours to read an average ln, that's assuming I'm juggling at the time, writing my thesis, and too drunk to sit upright at the time.

Where exactly do you get the idea that reading LNs is a time consuming process?
Don't get me wrong, I think a board for them would be neat. But it'd also be dead.

Did anybody say /tg/ moderation? Pic related.

>>8561450
/v/ IS SO BIG THEY CAN SPAM MORE THAN ME
/l/ /l/ /l/ /l/ /l/ /l/ /l/

>>8561751

>Where exactly do you get the idea that reading LNs is a time consuming process?

He's probably talking about a long running LN series.

>>8561745
Damn it, you people need to stop reading my mind. I thought about this too, but think about it: LNs are a visual medium as well as a text one. They have pretty pictures just like manga does. It shouldn't be /lnimagedumps/ or anything, but people might want to post pictures of certain parts or characters.
Besides, the "it doesn't need images, it should be a text board" thing is kind of a non-point anyway. People always post pictures. And moot made >>>/lit/ when we already had >>>/book/ and >>>/sci/ when we already had.../sci/, so this isn't really inappropriate.

>>8561750
It's quite a popular topic though. Or at least it could be. Frankly I just like the idea of more Wapanese boards. The "new" direction 4chan has taken makes me sad.
Anyway, this is what trial boards are (supposedly) for.

I would love a manga & LN board, /a/ is full of disgusting 'anime only' freaks, they're some of the most retarded people on the internet. I fear that a nice slower paced manga board will never come to fruition.

>>8561747

And furthermore it doesn't make any sense. He should just condense the boards by adding sub-boards to the main boards.

I have been convinced for many years now that Moot could not make responsible choices and seeing him just throwing more random boards out not only just adds more shit for the staff to deal with but more importantly it's only benefiting one board.

Sub-boards should be made rather than full-blown new boards (esports and /vp/ under /v/ for example).

>>8561762
Alright, that would make sense.

But as someone else said, the long waits in between releases would leave the board better suited as a text board.

>>8561776

> /a/ is full of disgusting 'anime only' freaks

/jp/ is even more Nazi than /a/ in terms of what's board related or not.

>I fear that a nice slower paced manga board will never come to fruition

True. There's a perfectly good board for figs (>>>/toy/, >>>/fig/) but the ret/a/rds want their own buyfag board.

>>8561777

>Sub-boards should be made rather than full-blown new boards (esports and /vp/ under /v/ for example).

And what difference would that make?

>>8561787
I thought only figma were allowed on /toy/.

>>8561777
What if we had user-created sub-boards that could about any topic in a wider subject range?
We could call them threads.

Clearly you've never been to /v/

>>8561794

Really? There's a big wonfest thread on the 2nd page of /toy/

>>8561776
> I fear that a nice slower paced manga board will never come to fruition.
>>>/anime/
There you go. You're spoilt for choice already. Don't like it? Go to 4-ch or somewhere else.

in b4 a million sub-boards, 4chan is the new reddit, it was fun, guys

>>8561792

Well, the point is that he is considering making an entire new board that has video game-related content when there is already a full-blown video game board. I realize popularity can be a driving force in many decisions but it doesn't make any sense.

>>8561804

You have to admit that the textboards are pretty terrible. I haven't been there in a while, but let's see:

>1: ANIME IS FOR NIGGERS (20
>3: a 100 reasons why Naruto sucks thread (572)
>8: good anime 2 watch (11)
>14: Good anime shows to watch (3)
>15: Consequences of Vocaloid / Miku Hatsune? (44)
>16: Hatsune Miku (7)
>21: K-ON Season 2 (16)
>23: Why is Hentai Censored in Japan? (94)

I would much rather read shit on 2ch

>>8561468
>So that /v/ can go back to being about 100% not video games once the sc2, fightan gaem, lol/hon/dota2, etc. generals leave.

See, that could be easily solved if there was an inch of moderation in that board. Those threads go against one of /v/'s rules, which says long-term discussion should be moved to the text board.

>>8561808

I mean, would making an entire board dedicated to Gust games make an logical sense to you just because it has a small but strong following on /jp/?

The problem with him is that nobody on his staff has the balls to tell him that his ideas are absolutely stupid.

The problem is not the lack or excess of boards, the problem is the people who post in them.

>>8561506
Totally not being a hipster.

>>8561804

That's a textboard, smart guy, and by slow, I mean as slow as /jp/ or less, not western textboard slow.

eSports sounds pretty cool, but I hope Melty threads don't migrate.

>>8561468
SC2 generals hardly ever talk about SC2 unless there's a tourny
FGG is ok but rife with tripfag drama (also a pony fighting game is in the works and we want THAT nuke to drop somewhere other than /v/)
LoL threads are absolutely fucking terrible, tripfag general
Dota 2 and Hon, I dunno.

>>8561819
True enough. That can't really be solved though.

>>8561816
Its a shame that these boards have so much potential. Yet, the majority of users are too stupid to even know how to use them properly.

He made a board for Pokemon.

He made a fucking board just for Pokemon.

Before any of you even begin to defend just be reminded of this.

>>8561837
>Encompasses the game, anime, and manga
>Ended the source of two major cancers
k

we need better moderation not more boards

>>8561840

It's going to get worse if there are more boards. Moot is basically building more factories without any workers to work in them.

>>8561838
fuck off back to /a/v/b/. That's not how quoting works.

>>8561840
a mod who understands how /jp/ works would be wonderful.

>>8561832
It can be more or less controlled with moderation and self-moderation if the community is good enough.
With the userbase of nowadays 4chan, the later point is kinda hard to accomplish though.

>>8561844
/jp/ doesn't even understand how /jp/ works. You are not a bastion of righteousness.

>>8561844
Not possible as moot only takes on people who go out drinking with him for years as mods. Someone that normal could never understand the board, and someone who understands the board could never be that normal (in order to get on the moderation team).

Splitting /v/ into 4 boards including two effectively about the same thing in the course of about a year and doing nothing else.

Way to run that board moot.

>>8561844
sup Ryuu

>>8561842
Thats because moot thinks user moderation is best

Moderation on /jp/ works fine. People just get all rooting tootin when they see some off topic shit on the front page for a few minutes because the janitor went to take a piss.

I think self-moderation for the most part works pretty well on /jp/. I want to emphasis for the most part.

So, has anyone told moot about this thread?
In particular, I want to know what he thinks about the proposed /a/ split and the apparent lack of sense of some of the proposed new boards that he seems to be considering.

It was ridiculous enough that there exists a /vp/ if he keeps adding more shit for /v/ it going to have every flavor of the month topic as a new board

>>8561844
People still doing this? You never fail to make me laugh neo/jp/.

>a mod who understands how /jp/ works would be wonderful.

/jp/ is unwanted redheaded stepson of 4chan.

>>8561712
And you know whose fault is that?

/jp/'s

>>8561870

We should all just look into the /jp/ manor idea

>>8561881
/v/ made those Ainsley edits, I thought

>>8561878
Yes, I'm sure /jp/ users are the ones making KS threads, learning basic kanji once a week, telling people "go hug your imouto ecks dee", going "l oh l slippery sloop gaiz1!", et cetera.

/jp/ is always going to be the wildcard board of 4chan. In fact, talking about what belongs and /jp/ and why /jp/ is so shitty has always been part of /jp/ culture.

I used to hate flanfly and chubby.jpg. But it's been here for so long that nobody can deny that it's an integral part of /jp/. I can guarantee you that at least half of this board population missed the most exciting time of the day when 4chan was down.

Anyway, I suggest the following changes to this board. Renaming it to:

/jp/ - /jp/ Culture

and updating the rules:

1. All things /jp/ welcome!

Why don't we have an /JIDF/ yet?

>>8561837
>>8561837
you probly never visited /v/ back when HG/SS were coming out, the whole first page (and god forbid some idiot needs to go past the 1st page to finda thread) was 50% Pokemon and every page after that was 30%, and they felt it would get worse with each next pokemon, imo it felt likee it was kind of necessary at the time, but I mean once the hype wore down it was no big deal, it would have been like making a LoZ or Elder Scrolls board back around November/December

>>8561878
In a good way though. Sometimes /jp/ is kind of annoying, especially when everyone is being ironic or spammy, but overall I'd say we're elitist in a very good way that other boards need to learn from. People make VN threads in /a/ and /v/ because we suck and we're not friendly and whatever. If people can't be bothered to lurk and learn how /jp/ works, they don't deserve to post. It's as simple as that.

Hopefully none of this will come to fruit and someone on the staff will just up and open and say that this is a terrible idea and that if you want to create a new board you should consider why it's needed.

He thinks there is a clear demand for Esports? Alright then start a trial board. But a Korean board? No sense whatsoever.

As a resident /v/irgin who sometimes visits /jp/, I can safely say that moderation isn't going to do anything for the board.

Too many people go to /v/ for it to be practically modded, and if the shitposters get mad, they'll go up and arms about it. Very much pic related.

What /v/ needs is less traffic, which more INTERESTING boards can accomplish. Of course we wouldn't even need that if /b/ would stop flooding into /v/, since /b/ is going waaay to fast.

I see user moderation being brought up, and unfortunately, it's just not practical, there are at least 10 shitposters for every 1 person who wants to clean up /v/

Self moderation can work on smaller boards, like /jp/ because the community doesn't have such a diverse mindset, where /v/ has a diverse mindset, and even the ones who HAVE gathered opinions on how to clean up /v/ have incredibly varied thoughts on it.

So an E-sports board would be fine. It's hard to get any real video game discussion done when all you see are E-sports and shitposting.

As for /jp/....well I haven't been here in the last two months, so I can't comment on the state of it, unfortunately.

>>8561837

I don't think you have ever been to /v/ before /vp/ was up. When there's something new in the Pokemon world, half of the front page is filled with pokemon threads, and half of those threads are meta-responses about how pokemon belongs in /b/ or /a/, and other shit.

/v/ became slightly better with the creation of /vp/.

>>8561891
This would make it officially a closed circlejerk. How would we renew the community once we have moved to Gensokyo?

>a mod who understands how /jp/ works would be wonderful.
You're a fucking autist. /jp doesn't work. It's pointless. No one can even figure out what this fucking board is about. It started as VN's touhou and idols, and now its touhous and shitposting about touhous. /jp/ is the toilet of 4chan to keep all the touhou autists off the rest of the site. There's nothing TO understand.

And fuck off with your "properly" used sages on a board which doesn't have any thread movement in the first place. Saging a thread on the top of the front page is the definition of idiocy. Oh no, you might bump a fucking touhuu thread asking about how many dicks sanae might eat!

Moot fucking delete this place already and end my torment.

>>8561891
It's still shitposting if you're being ironic, Anon.

>>8561909
Why is renewal desirable?

We know who we want, and when we're gone, it's not our problem anymore.

>>8561910

>like /jp/ because the community doesn't have such a diverse mindset,

How wrong you are. GUST threads were going fine for a few months, and it took ONE shitposter complaining about GUST being /v/ material to derail the weekly thread.

I am more worried that the weaboos are demanding that this be turned into a full-blown "Everything Japanese!" board. If that's the case we will have to do our best to drive their asses out.

>>8561910
Here is a .gif describing what happens when a moderator tries to delete a shitposting thread and ban the OP

>>8561912

many come here for the touhou threads, and in case u dont know by now...

/jp/ = touhou

>>8561910
If /v/ veterans had some sense in their heads, they would act as unfriendly as possible to the facebook kiddies that comes every summer.

With each influx of new users, instead of shaping them in accord to the board culture, /v/ absorbs their faggotry and turns shittier and shittier.

>>8561908
The esports circle jerk is...you know it's not as spammy but it's significantly dumber so I think I actually hate it more. "Esports" as anything more than a dumb name for Starcraft was laughed at for years on /v/ then all of a sudden I look at /v/ after a few months and they're asking for their own damn board.

It's like if /a/ had a movement asking for an English dub board. What the fuck happened? Why did they let it happen?

esports should not happen its only because of starcraft 2 that there has been a recent increase of such things. like wise the same reason there should not be a korean board

>>8561934

I think it's too late now. /v/ is basically /reddit/ now and nothing is going to stop it from where it is at right now.

>>8561925
>weaboo
>>>/b/

We just need japan/general back.

Are people from /v/ coming here for sympathy now?

Has it really come to this? Are we so low now that we can't chase them off?

Have things gotten so bad that some people might consider them allies?

If moot keeps pandering to /v/ we will end up with a board of all kinds of flavor of the month shit that could have easily been taken care of

>>8561890
Yes.

>>8561925

We need a weeaboo board that isn't /jp/. Why?

- There is a significant "learn Japanese thread" community on 4chan, distributed throughout /jp/, /a/, and /lang/. This can be condensed.
- Japanese cuisine can never be discussed on /ck/ without massive weeaboo callouts.
- /lang/ is too slow for the small translation request threads.
- Likewise, /trv/ is too slow for "I'm in Japan help me" threads.
- Having a weeaboo board would contain all of the weeaboos into that board, like /soc/ did. I'm sure /jp/ would immediately see the benefit in that.

why do i love this board so much?

i've been lurking 4chan for a very long time . /jp/ is ...something special. i know my autism is showing but i speak the truth.

Just ban 2hu from /jp/ and give them their own board or put them back into /a/ or whatever.

Everyone is sick of 2hufags shitting up everything and 2hufags are upset and angry about /jp/ers shitposting in their threads.

I mean atleast /v/ got rid of their pokefags, why can't /jp/ get rid of the 2hufags?

And no, just because it was always this way doesn't mean it's the best solution for /jp/.

>>8561939
God why do we even have an anime board, it just became popular in the west because of Dragon Ball Z and Sailor Moon.

>>8561936
>many come here for the touhou threads, and in case u dont know by now...

>/jp/ = touhou

No fucking shit? You stupid fucking autist that's exactly what I said in my post. Go fucking kill yourself.

>>8561941
/v/ should just be deleted and moot should make 4chan.org/v redirect to /b/, or reddit.

>>8561961
No, that is dumb

>>8561964

>put them back into /a/ or whatever.

Confirmed for never having been on /a/ pre-split.

>>8561894
It used to work, but just doesn't anymore. People from /a/ come here anyway. Sure, a lot of the ones that get turned off are retards, but so are the ones that stay.

I say it's time to suck it up and accept reality. People who recently made from /a/ are the majority of posters on /jp/ nowadays. No point in scaring them away anymore. It would make more sense to try to get more of the nicer ones to stick around, really.

>>8561936
You have to be underage. Reported.

>>8561964
>ban 2hu from /jp/

what...what did u just say?

>>8561934
>If /v/ veterans had some sense in their heads, they would act as unfriendly as possible to the facebook kiddies that comes every summer.

That is difficult considering how there aren't many /v/eterans left. A lot of them stopped going to the board all together or, like me, simply show up for two or three threads during the day, and wait till the kiddies go to sleep to have some real discussions going.

If we had been able to start this trend a couple years ago, things might be different, but wow, we certainly did not see this coming.

>With each influx of new users, instead of shaping them in accord to the board culture, /v/ absorbs their faggotry and turns shittier and shittier.

The problem with this lies in the fact that /v/ culture is simply rage. The problem is that this can't be explained properly, as many users today take rage as a sign of "epic trolled xd."

If I had it my way, I'd reinstate the policy of telling people to lurk more instead of yelling newfag.

>>8561964

The touhou threads here are almost always image dumps, and not only that, it reeks of secondaries who are in it just for the faps.

Touhou games, along with other doujin games, should stay here, but the faggotry that pass as touhou threads should be purged

>>8561967
I don't give a fuck if /a/ shits on 2hu or loves it. I just want that shit out of this board.

>>8561988
This
/v/ is actually semi-decent at night

>>8561971
No, he should just make it so that only the people with the addons can actually post.

>>8561982
You are retarded. /jp/ is the result of people wanting touhou and vns out from /a/. They arent going to make another board to git rid of something that has already been taken care of

>>8561981
>>8561982

Taking Touhou out of /a/ was the best thing to happen to 4chan. But I agree, having a /2hu/ board would make sense for the above mentioned reasons.

>>8561997
Thats what /jp/ is for

>>8561982
>2hu
please, stop.

>>8561982
I want you out of this board

>>8561997
>/2hu/ board

It's called /jp/.

>>8561984
>>8561984
>what...what did u just say?

You're seriously the equivalent of a toddler. I wish /jp/ still told you fags to go back to shitsmear.

>>8561997
It doesn't even need another board, most of the material that get's posted would be right at home in /e/ /h/ /d/

>>8561992
You realize a large number of people visit /v/, right? And you realize that 'night' is a different time for all of these different people, right?

How could you say something so stupid?

>>8561984
>u
Stop that

>>8561988
>>With each influx of new users, instead of shaping them in accord to the board culture, /v/ absorbs their faggotry and turns shittier and shittier.
The problem moreover lies in the fact that video games are mainstream shit nowdays and being a "gamer" doesn't get so much shit on your shoulders than admitting to watching anime/reading manga/masturbating to 2D representations of little girls.

The industry just evolved and the destroyal of /v/ was pretty much inevitable.

>>8561998
No, let him be. There's no surer and faster way to recognize a shitposter.

>>8562012
It's generally accepted that night refers to between 10 PM 4chan time and 6 AM 4chan time
Eat shit

>>8562012
I am not him, but night time on /v/ is mostly described as the 4:00AM general that happens every day without fail.

>>8561988
I figured that /v/eterans would have left at this point. While /v/ never was the most exemplary board on 4chan, there is no way the old userbase could have fallen this low.

/jp/ needs to become /ca/ for classic anime XD
get dem /2hu/ fags they're own board

>>8561998
Sorry for not enjoying your shitty series.
>>8561999
Don't worry. We want you imagedumptards out of this board as well.

>>8562018
Yes, because you guys NEVER have daily threads that show up at night, RIGHT?

Touhou used to be only one aspect of /jp/.

It's all just touhou shitposting now to the point /jp/ is just a worthless board. I might as well go read gelbooru comments all day, that's what /jp/ is now. You're fucking gelbooru comments.

>suggest an /ar/ - /a/ ronery board
>get this as a response

(3:06:38 PM) MOOTCHAT: hahaha
(3:06:42 PM) MOOTCHAT: it's called /jp/
(3:06:46 PM) MOOTCHAT: check it out sometime

NTHX

What are people actually looking for from /jp/?

Anime? VNs? Touhou? NEET/Hikki generals? Shitposting?

>>8562017
you're right, I'm adding this to my filter

>>8562034
VNTLS thread
this is the best part of /jp/

>>8562032
There is also /r9k/ for that

Most if not all the complaints i this thread already have perfectly viable boards to post in and use already

>>8562034
A secret club for the content they like. The content they don't like shouldn't be posted.

>>8562040
Nothing wrong with multiple boards for the same subjects. They'd still be different due to different userbases.

/jp/ is Otaku Culture which means anything we have an Otaku for is welcome but we the user base have created invisible rules for /jp/. If we take Otaku by its meaning then as long as its obsessive and not relating to the other boards it's welcome here.

>>8562049
It's redundant and there is no need for a flavor of the month board

>>8561958
It doesn't matter anymore, anon.

Just let them do what they want.

If moot makes /kr/, will there be wars between /jp/ and /kr/?

Something like this?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmosA7LL-DM

>>8562040
That's generally the case overall. The problem is people refusing to post on the appropriate board because "no that board is shit" and stupid fuck moderation policy that ends up with anything vaguely sci-fi ending up tenuously on /m/ eventually.

>>8562032
I bet moot thought he was real clever.

>>8562049

You are kidding, right?

>>8562029
Actually, there's pretty much no Touhou on /jp/ right now. I just went to the catalogue and found maybe five active threads, plus one or two more that never took off. None of them on the front pages.

It's like our last bastion of defense is falling.

Why are there people discussing about /v/ in this thread? Take that back to /v/.

>2hu
You are a fucking eyesore.

>>8562032
Get out.

I don't know why, but I liked /jp/ better before the topic change.

>>8562064
I don't think you know how to count.

>>8562055
personally i am more interested in possible north korea fans fighting south korea fans

>>8562055 implying we won't be BFFs

>>8562064

Well because everyone is in here getting pissed about the admins latest stupid move.

i just masturbated while reading your posts. this thread is worse than any shitpost.

>touhou threads
Devolved into shit posts asking about how many dicks sanae sucks

>vn threads
Devolved into translation threads. If I see one more translation project I'm gonna throw up.

>Idol threads
Devolved into JAV threads.

Just delete this place already.

>>8562070
Best Corea and it's potential to take the legitimate purpose from the board itself keeps me very interested in how this all turns out.

And thanks to his big publicity stunt we will be seeing these threads all day and all night. Because interrupting discussions to bring to point site issues is what every good admin does.

Ukraine gay pop is already more superior than Korean gay pop. Is moot going to make a /ukraine/ board?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ko2IIvE34WY

I just want him to rename /jp/ to something else. /jc/ "Japanese crap" sounds good to me.

>>8562085
>touhou threads

More like devolved into "wch tohu wud u want to shit on ur face"

>>8562070
That wont happen. If anything only more problems and more shit will come from making a korean board. There will be spamming on /a/ about watching japanese anime there will be spam on /v/ for likewise reason adn of course there will be spamming on /jp/ as well to name a few examples

>>8562067
You just said so, it's because it was before and nostalgia is part of your poor attempt at gaining credibility for your internet persona

>>8562098
They will probably organize ebin /jp/ raids since /kr/ is going to be filled with /v/ aka /b/ users from last years.

>>8562095
These are made by obvious shit posters who do nothing but degrade the board and spam with touhou and make people think that touhou is associated with shitposting

i still like /jp/'s occasional fap general...

>>8562112
Fix your shift key, fucker.

>>8562088
it's only /jp/ spamming themselves with inane new board topics. it's because the user base is stupid children. there won't be a new visual novel board you fucking mongoloids.

the only other board moot needs to add is some kind of gay board where cock sucking threads can go. i emailed him about esports, deleting /jp/, and making a gay board.

>>8562114
suck my cock dude

We just need to find ourselves /jp/

>>8562112

I think he said that he would actually add a gay board if there was demand for it when he re-created /hc/.

>>8562114
try and make me you stupid little bitch.

Going by your logic moot should make a new /int/ since the old one has turned into /rus/.

>>8562105
Except a lot of shitty fuckers here take it seriously too.

>>8562134

What about /pol/!

Surely there needs to be a board for liberals and conservatives as well. Plenty of people are into that stuff and it's in demand.

>>8561938
/v/ got to shit over the years because they abbandoned the whole "sagebomb and insult OP" in favor of a "hide and ignore" approach. Shit was left to prosper.

Stop talking about /v/. It's about as worthless as mentioning /b/.

Op here just got back and 232 posts? Holy shit didn't even know /jp/ had enough people for that.

>>8562167

I think OP was more interested in getting /jp/ worked up over the possibility of there being a /nida/ board.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjt7I5tjXGw

Someone try to get moot ITT (or to make his own thread on /jp/--it's been a while).

>>8561457
I only read to here, but if you've been to /v/ lately there are sc2, fighting, lol, dota2 threads that fill up in 30-50 mins and are reposted immediately after. The first page also is filled with all of them+/v/s flavor of the month.

>>8562178
Fighting generals are at best like 1/3 about fighting games. The ratios seem similar for those other threads.

If they weren't full of complete fucking shit they wouldn't max out so fast.

>>8562184

He isn't capable of holding a discussion up to /jp/s levels.

>>8562155
>/v/ got to shit over the years because they abbandoned the whole "sagebomb and insult OP" in favor of a "hide and ignore" approach. Shit was left to prosper.

We prefer (sage) Report and Hide. The method you described only promotes shitposting.

There reason behind this is Tripfags, most of them simply want attention, so even responding with a sage will simply promote them to bump their own topic, the only thing for it is to Report it and Hide it, and never respond to it.

However it seems that 95% of /v/ isn't even aware of the report feature, and respond to shitposting, even worse, without a sage.

>>8562193
Yeah, this is a high quality thread right here.

>>8562195
This.
http://kottke.org/08/07/just-dont-look

Even if you make an autistic/well thought out/rational reply, trolls win. The only winning move is not to play.

>>8562184
I wish I could but faggot ins't responding to me on aim. Someone else has aim can send him the link.

He won't listen to your criticism anyway, his /b/ friends are sucking his dick thinking this is the best site ever, and because of them it looks like majority.

Why is /v/ here?

Now I've got to go through this all and report them all.
We don't give a shit that your board is shit, take it back there.

>>8562195
I disagree I think you should like things. One of the problem with /jp/ is you fags hate on everything.

>>8562206
It's only when EVERYONE is smart enough to not reply the thread would safely be averted. Even then the op of said thread can bump and persist its shit on page one

>>8562221
Which is why you ignore it. People get bored. If you were born after 1995 or have ADHD, download the extension that lets you click a button to hide the thread from yourself.

>>8562224
I TIHNK TAHT MOOT SHUD MAKE /v2/ WHICH IS 4 VIDEOGAMES SO TAHT PPL IN /v/ CAN POST ABOUT TEIR FOREVERALONE.JPG
+1 IF U AGREE

>>8562228
>People get bored
people get board but not shitposters

>>8562040
/r9k/ was shit before it was deleted and reinstated, but ever since that happened it has been a lot worse. It's /soc/2.0 now.

>>8562195
I forgot to mention, in my first post >>8562155 the report thing as well. See, you are giving them attention, yes, but it's the negative kind and, as much as they'd like you to believe they enjoy it anyway, they don't. It makes it even worse for them when the thread, full of bile and sage, ends up 404'ing thanks to a janitor/mod.

I know sage isn't an insult, but it's underlying effect hurts people's feelings. The kind of people 4chan shouldn't harbour.

WE NEED A PHILOSOPHY BOARD

I still laugh at how 4chan doesn't understand what sage means.

If only I knew moon so I wouldn't have to spend time on a board that imports foreign concepts and then DOES IT WRONG all the time.

Using sage as a way to "insult" someone's post or thread is just completely wrong and a retarded misuse of a good feature that is so popular in sites like 2ch and Futaba. Fuck, iichan and 4-ch do it right. It's just 4chan and 4chan's lame knockoffs that fail at using sage.

The true meaning of sage means that YOUR POST isn't worthy enough to bump the thread. It's ironic, because you think that you're insulting others while you're just, in fact, insulting yourself. Yes, sage can be used when posting a derogatory comment in a thread that you don't want to bump, but posting with just the word "sage" accomplishes nothing but contribute to spamming the board. The trend of replying with the name of a tripfag and sage is even worse, as it accomplishes nothing and only serves to increase the e-penis of whoever you're "attacking".

The sage feature was never meant to serve as an implied insult or general disagreement! Why people started using it that way is beyond me. There are plenty of reasons why one would choose not to bump a thread with his reply. For example, bumping threads with stupid one liner replies should be discouraged and those people should be coerced into using sage instead.

I want to use sage, yet I almost never do it on 4chan because people will jump on me thinking I'm insulting their post or something.

Why can't he simply add user IDs ? (User ID changes every thread)
It would reduce the shitposting

I'd be happy if moot just fixed his fucking site before adding to it. I see the front page (or a banned message) until the board/thread updates with a new post, and it's really fucking annoying.

thanks op, she is hot bitch in porn, i cum so hard while hurtling through space toward a decommissioned space station. slowly, i pull my knees to my chest and close my eyes as my bowels begin to expel hundreds upon hundreds of beautiful, symmetrical turds, brown as the day is long. i laugh like a young girl as my turds drift aimlessly behind me; they are as butterflies to a child frolicking in the fields of elysium.

i approach the station's docking port, flaccid cock in hand, and prepare to float gently into its inviting confines. i extend my cockless arm jubilantly, as to celebrate the majesty and depth of space, and thank jesus christ for this ultimate gift and blessing. but suddenly, my outstretched arm collides with the outer rim of the docking port, and the trajectory of my quaggy body is violently halted.

the fates afford me barely enough time to turn my head before the turds arrive. one thousand turds, each one seemingly larger than the last. i try in vain to cleanse my eyes of the shitsting, but succeed only in smearing my own fecal matter into a fine asspaste, which slowly seeps into my eyes and nasal cavity. i inhale three hundred and twenty four Space Turds; my lungs are permeated completely with my own shit. i hang lax, spirit broken, defeated by poop. i will never be the same. i am forever a shit faggot.

>>8562241
we do it's called /lit/, those fuckers don't even read novels or good books, all they care about is it being deep, even if it's shitty

>>8562248

Never going to happen. We all know that he would not allow it.

>>8562252
No one is there and it sucks.

I believe you shouldn't underestimate Aikido. Now I know you may be thinking, "Why take a weakling martial art like Aikido seriously when I am learning Kendo?" I can see why you would think that, how can a peaceful martial arts like Aikido beat a powerful one like Kendo?

Well, I have a story to share with you.

Years ago, I was a Kendoka, I thought I was the toughest kid in high school, I would pick fights, and kick ass. I was full of hate, until I picked a fight with the wrong dude. He was a Japanese exchange student, I still remember his name, Noboru Takeda.

I picked on him because of his hilarious and thick Japanese accent. I told him I was going to beat him so hard, he would go back to China(Yeah, I was a little racist prick.), he never said anything back, made me wanted to kick his ass even harder.

Well, here comes the fight. I threw men and do strikes, he dodged them like I was a mere white belt. I was tiring out and he knew, I saw the smirk on his face that made me raged hard. I put all my strength in one amazing tsuki, and he grabbed past it to my wrist and threw me over. My back smacked on the hard cement ground, and I was knocked out for who knows how long.

When I woke up I was in the school infirmary, I asked the nurse who brought me here, and you guessed it, Noboru Takeda. The next day, he wasn't at school, he was back in Japan, and I never got to thank him, for saving my life and showing me the light. I soon learned that he was an Aikidoka and have been practicing Aikido ever since to show my thanks to him.

>>8562236
Not him, but I genuinely do enjoy negative attention. If I'm bored or upset I'll make shit/troll threads and the replies I enjoy the most are the ones where people try to be all mature. In fact, here's a list from my most enjoyable to least enjoyable replies:
* Mature, lengthy posts describing what I did wrong or whatever. The more effort, the better.
* Ironic replies where people "pretend" to be mad or upset, but the extra irony just makes it more delicious.
* People genuinely getting upset.
* "Autistic" replies (as if they were written by an autistic person, not whatever /jp/ thinks "autistic" means).
* "sage", "reported", etc.
* No replies at all.

The fact is, the only way to win with trolls is to not give them any sort of attention. What's great is that everyone knows this, but you continue to feed us anyway.

Its lunch, I went to my favourite sandwich shop, got a delicious veal sandwich and was on my way back home. There was this thuggish "Nigga" style black dude, he was behind me, I stopped, because he was walking quite fast, and I didn't want to be in his way.
He comes up to me, and asked, “Do you have any money?”, I knew where he was going with this, so I said, “Yeah, but you’re not getting any of it.”, and I walked away. I suppose it’s in his blood, he was going to punch the back of my head but I quickly grabbed and threw him over my shoulder, he fell down and became unconscious. I checked if he had any drugs/money, found cocaine in his jacket and called the cops.
I guess it wasn’t really a fight since it lasted less than 10 seconds, it really shows how effective Aikido is in real life situations.
It feels good to help the police catch drug dealers/druggies.

>>8562256
so would a philosophy board, seriously, it would fill with the same people: high schoolers, philo majors, and english majors (literature majors actually like to discuss novels and stories and talk about what's good and fun to read, and then maybe a bit about philosophical messages, it guides us to use places other than /lit/, but face it, it would be exactly the same

>>8562248
I suggested this on AIM earlier.
In fact, this is built into Futa* so it's probably in Yotsuba too.

>>8562236
>See, you are giving them attention, yes, but it's the negative kind and, as much as they'd like you to believe they enjoy it anyway, they don't.

See, this is where you're actually wrong. Giving them attention of ANY KIND, is fun for them. They don't care what you think of them, they just want to make you waste your time, make you angry, or are just looking for attention in general.

As a current example, the Moe Brigade enjoys the shit that comes into their thread regardless of intent.

You guys are aware there's a whole World Wide Web outside of 4chan, right? I get that you like anonymous boards or whatever, but you don't have to cram everything into 4chan.

>>8562254
>he would not allow it.

But why?

Split /jp/ into , /id/, /th/, /aut/ and /vn/

I am starting to get a headache and I need to head back to work to pick some things up.

Bottom-line is that by adding this board just doesn't make any sense. I am running this idea in my head that he basically just craves into pressure from the community when there is high demand for something and never puts his foot down. I haven't looked at /v/ in years (and I don't plan on ever again) but I seriously doubt that the demand for an esports board is so high that it is effecting the flow of Reddit comics and other shit on the board.

I believe you shouldn't underestimate Aikido. Now I know you may be thinking, "Why take a weakling martial art like Aikido seriously when I am learning Kendo?" I can see why you would think that, how can a peaceful martial arts like Aikido beat a powerful one like Kendo?

Well, I have a story to share with you.

Years ago, I was a Kendoka, I thought I was the toughest kid in high school, I would pick fights, and kick ass. I was full of hate, until I picked a fight with the wrong dude. He was a Japanese exchange student, I still remember his name, Noboru Takeda.

I picked on him because of his hilarious and thick Japanese accent. I told him I was going to beat him so hard, he would go back to China(Yeah, I was a little racist prick.), he never said anything back, made me wanted to kick his ass even harder.

Well, here comes the fight. I threw men and do strikes, he dodged them like I was a mere white belt. I was tiring out and he knew, I saw the smirk on his face that made me raged hard. I put all my strength in one amazing tsuki, and he grabbed past it to my wrist and threw me over. My back smacked on the hard cement ground, and I was knocked out for who knows how long.

When I woke up I was in the school infirmary, I asked the nurse who brought me here, and you guessed it, Noboru Takeda. The next day, he wasn't at school, he was back in Japan, and I never got to thank him, for saving my life and showing me the light. I soon learned that he was an Aikidoka and have been practicing Aikido ever since to show my thanks to him.

Why would we need a korean board if there's an esports board? Or vice versa? Maybe I misread it as two when it's going to be korea/esports general?

Why you still care?
It's over, it's been over since he stopped updating news page (birthday illustration posts don't count)

Here, I don't know when was the last time you visited /b/ (probably long time ago) but, do it.

>>>/b/

Visit it now and think is it worth to waste your time typing suggestions to moot thinking he could make a change for better.
Just go play Touhou or some VN.

Fucking megaupload links and the website shutdown

I hope he doesn't make an esports board, I like my esports just fine on /v/, people condense their threads well.

>>8562388
I mean the fighting games people condense all their fighting games to one thread... You should be grateful, it could be SF4 General, Blazblue General, KOF, MBAACC, Skull Girls, etc. all cluttered up.

I don't see why people find the GENERAL threads offensive. As long as they are talking about a video game, it's fine, right?

The worse shit is everything else like the forever alone threads and meta discussion such as "why aren't you playing PS3 with your gf"

>>8562451
The problem is that they get maxed out in like an hour and they make a new one immediately after that.

And they don't max out because of video game discussion. Those are, at best, 1/3 of the threads. The rest is livejournal shit and circlejerking.

>>8562365
Hilariously enough ronery threads are still on /a/ and make /jp/ crowd assfrustrated as fuck.
We have depression and suicide threads though.
I think we are simply past the point of loneliness.

>>8562451
Also why the fuck does /v/ get so pissy when someone likes a game that they don't like?

I hate COD, but just try making a MW3 thread there. Instead of ignoring it, they'll turn it into an even shittier thread and then get pissed off at the mods (leading to shit like the OP image).

>>8562451
I hate general threads. When I have a topic I just want to be able to make a thread about it, not have it hidden away in some thread that is already discussing a different topic at the time.

Stop complaining about /v/ things in /jp/. We're not /v/ so we don't care. Take it to /img/ or something.

Have you seen LoL and SC threads? They are usually about unrelated drama, attention whoring avatarfags and K-pop. They are barely about video games anymore.
KS is the new addition to the list of fucking horrible.

There are of course good general threads, like Dark souls and Grand strategy, but they are fucking minority.

>>8562474
As opposed to the billions of NEET/Hikki blog threads on /jp?

Stay mad, autist.

>>8562480
That's because people hardly make them. I have to go out of my way to create threads for stuff like that or SMT. There's literally the same guy everyday waiting for me to make an SMT thread (PHG or something, forgot the exact name).

>>8562467
Well to be fair, we care deeply about video games, and /v/eterans will tell you that CoD is a poison to the industry.

The true essence of /v/ isn't "stop having fun" it's "Stop having fun at the expense of the industry."

Buying CoD for it's 60 USD price tag only promotes the effort that was put into it, slightly updated graphics, poor story, and a poor game in general, which in turn, tells the developers that consumers aren't looking for "quality" as much as they are whatever CoD brings to the table.

>>8562496
>buying

Why are people discussing /v/ in this thread? Take that shit to /v/.

>>8562496
Then fucking ignore those threads if they ever pop up. Hide them if you can.

And it's hardly just COD that /v/ shitposts on.

>>8562492
>That's because people hardly make them.
Grand strategy and Dark souls are literally there on a permanent basis. They last for 12 hours only to be up again the moment they die.

I find if funny that you still can hate /a/ when sometimes I have to check the browser title to know if I'm on /jp/ or /a/.

But anyway, we don't need more boards. Throughout its days, /jp/ has been about: Touhou (games and related), imagedumps, VNs (translated and untranslated), idols, doujin games, doujin music, Comikets, Light Novels, the occasional discussion about Japanese otakus and daily doses like Japanese bird.

We just need a mod who can keep it that way, while deleting unrelated shit like drama, blogging, anime and obvious offtopic shit like "I want to suck a cock".

Why does moot have a hard on for stop gap measures? Can't he think of anything more permanent?

Making a separate Touhou board is probably one of the least thought-out answers to fixing /jp/ I've seen in this thread. For starters, Touhou is very much /jp/ related, and there's nothing wrong with it being here. What is wrong is all the shitposting associated with Touhou (e.g. witch 2hu u ____, Sanae is a slut, image dumps). Here's the thing, though. Shitposters are going to shitpost regardless. If moderation suddenly decides that Touhou is bannable and it's not worth modem power cycling/finding a new proxy for shitposters then we'll just see more inane garbage like madoka a shit, suck my cock dude, and so on. Removing an actual board-related topic isn't going to solve a thing.
