It seems one of our janitors has gone rogue. Email moot@4chan.org the following links:

Explain to him that Ar Tonelico is a non-doujin JRPG and these threads are presumably the sort of thing he created /vg/ for. Also explain to him that our janitors do not cherry-pick responses like this in any other threads. Please quote the following in your email:

Apologies to any Ar Tonelico fans caught in the crossfire. I hope your discussions carry over to /vg/ as smoothly and painlessly as possible.

That's like saying, "Why should /v/ disallow circumcision friendzone greentext threads when you have such quality topics as 'hurr durr mario' or 'y does zelda suck v???'" (I don't really know what /v/ talks about).

Plus they attract the wrong sort. /jp/ is not "a more grown up /a/" and it's not a more grown up /v/. Plenty of people have flocked to AT threads from /v/, and this is a bad thing (yes, I am elitist blah blah blah).
Note also that even in "normal" AT threads, plenty of on-topic posters have their posts deleted. This suggests that a lot of the AT posters are the same people getting all their posts deleted for shitposting.

>> No.8682320

>>8682306
Even if a topic is technically allowed, doesn't mean the community will receive it well. KS used to belong here and in no other board after all, but that didn't stop us from rejecting it.

Besides, if you want to get down to it everything can be otaku related if there's an obsessive following around a japanese-based object/media. There's a hard time trying to say what belongs and what doesn't belong here. Rule of thumb since the night of the split is that if it doesn't have a board for it, then it goes in /jp/. But that thinking is flawed since there's quite a bit of overlap with other boards and a literal minded person can declare every cherished /jp/ topic belongs in other boards. Touhou are games, so /v/. Visual novels are /vg/, otaku music is /mu/, and so on.

It's been 4 years already, and the best I can get is "if /jp/ accepts it, then it belongs in /jp/".

This is why I think moot should have made /dg/. It would stop the old "BUT 2HU IS VIDYA GAMES!!!" argument.

Doujin games go /jp/.
Video games go in /v/.
Video game generals go in /vg/.
Of course doujin games can go in /v/ or /vg/ too, but the reverse isn't true; Final Fantasy, Sonic the Hedgehog, Ar Tonelico, etc. should not go in /jp/. The fact that "otakus like it" is a stupid criterion because otaku like all video games. Likewise "it has VN elements" should not apply unless it IS a VN (in which case it's probably also a doujin game to begin with).

Nobody's complained about them for ages, now, though. Everyone accepted them, the threads were running through all of 2011 with pretty much no spamming at all. It's just strange that everyone agreed it was fine here and not in the video games board, but now some guy thinks the other video games board which discusses the exact same things in a slightly different way is way more appropriate.
Well, I guess he probably just always hated them and thought this might be his chance to get them removed. He's certainly persistent about it.

I disagree since AT is more of a visual novel with gameplay elements than the other way around. Plus it's absurd to ask for the userbase to move away to a hostile environment when they are not doing any harm. A similar case stood for KS in /v/ and /a/. The threads didn't belong there, but to force them to move to /jp/ would have been a disaster to all.

This is exactly what I was referring to, it's difficult to reach a consensus on what belongs to the board, I have never seen everyone agreeing on something belonging here.

I like the idea of a /dg/ but I worry that it wouldn't get enough interest and the last thing that this stagnating board needs is another split. We're not big like /v/ or /a/, we can't afford to divide an already sickly userbase.

Attention! Ar Tonelico / Atelier / GUST threads are a /vg/ related habit. They doesn't belong on /jp/. So if you like these games and intend to talk about them, kindly leave.

/jp/ is for translators, artists and scholars of Japanese culture only. It is a place to create original content and engage in meaningful discussions. Not a place for man-children to salivate over terrible video games.

Now that this is settled, please continue.

If you're going to bitch about it at least provide an arguement as to why it doesn't belong here. I don't really know much about it, but from all accounts it seems like the ones claiming Ar Tonelico doesn't belong here aren't really supporting their arguement. Just because we have /vg/ now doesn't mean the contents of /jp/ suddenly have to diverge. The reason /vg/ was created is because the pace on /v/ is so much faster than ours, and a large amount of 'general threads' were being created. /vg/ can support the split, while /jp/ alienating one thing that may very well be related enough to the theme of the board isn't necessary considering the slow pace.

I agree with this. I do not play the series either, but I don't mind the threads being here, as they have been here a long time and their denizens keep them condensed. Same with idolfags, /kig/, and all of the other little /jp/ sub-subcultures.

Since I'm not a /v/ user, in my mind the only thing /vg/ really did was make a home for KS, which no other board wanted. Since KS threads were often spammed on /jp/ and widely disliked by the community here, I feel it's appropriate that they (or at least, most of them) go to /vg/. Ar Tonelico threads, on the other hand, have been here for ages and haven't been much of a problem.

These AT threads aren't going to affect your everyday shitposting and other /jp/ talk. It's just a single thread and if it really bothers you to the point that you simply cannot browse /jp/ without being happy then just hide the thread

It isn't a VN. It's a role-playing game. The creators describe it as a role-playing game. They do this because it is a role-playing game. Yes it contains elements inspired by visual novels. So do lots of other role-playing games, notably the Tales series and even Western games like Mass Effect.
However it is first and foremost a Japanese role-playing game. Role-playing games belong in /v/. Just because it has "waifus" does not mean it belongs in /jp/. Just because it is Japanese does not mean it belongs in /jp/. Just because it has elements borrowed from something /jp/-related does not mean it belongs in /jp/.
I would not post Avatar: The Last Airbender in /a/ because it is not an anime (Western sense of the word). The fact that it borrows from anime does not make it anime or mean it belongs on the anime board.

Mass Effect could be considered OELVN if you want to get into that point, and as such goes in /vg/.

Look, Ar Tonelico is in a gray area between RPG and VN, as evidenced by the constant bickering trying to categorize it. If it has an old, healthy base here, it's relevance to the board is arguable at worst and there's no reason to exile it off to /vg/, then why go through the effort?

This is not new, this is not something that must be stopped to avoid chaos later on. It didn't attract other videogame threads, it didn't devolve into tripfag circlejerks and to this day they discuss the games and produce content. To push them off the board would harm us, it would deprive us of yet another topic of discussion just because some can't handle the idea of some threads fitting in several boards at the same time. You don't see people trying to keep the /fig/ threads strictly about PVC and models because technically the articulated figures go in /toy/.

It's a silly discussion that is already over since we have mods saying that they'd rather delete the whining spam attacking content than exile them for no good reason. It's destroying a decent base and series of threads for no reason.

I've played ar tonelico thanks to /jp/, and I'm actually glad I did. About 2-3 years ago I came here for touhou, but also found out what kind of audience this board had. Yes, creepers and pedophiles, I'm looking at you. But this actually felt more complicated and interesting than standard boards routine of memes and trolls, not that we didn't have occasional invasions though.

Many of the games and VNs in general, even manga I took simply because they were recommended here. And I liked them far more than those I used to pick randomly. I'm pretty sure thats related to similar personality and interest we shared.

Although now I'm not even sure what kind of people we have here, especially with all that shitposting banning and flaming.

It does all the time. Or at least it did. /jp/ was a real pain because you'd have the same thread open in easymodo to see the 20% of posts that were deleted It was really fucking annoying and fuck whichever mod did this. Unless it was AoC using script hax.

You know as well as I that even if somebody here wanted to have a Final Fantasy thread, it would hardly affect /jp/ at all. Anyone trying to have a serious discussion about it would be a /jp/er in the first place. "/v/bros" are not likely to lurk /jp/ for FF threads.

In reality it'd be either taken as a troll or (unlikely) a one-shot, half-serious discussion thread. Personally I'd ignore it in either case.

Anyway, the point was that your argument is a slippery slope.

We've literally had people saying, "I'll admit I came here from /v/ for the AT threads..." before. Not that I mind those people, they're usually mature and well-spoken.
The point is if we turn /jp/ into "Video Games/Weeaboo" we'll pull in the worst parts of /v/. I like cooking but I'd sure as hell rather discuss cooking on /jp/ than /ck/ (not that /ck/ is particularly bad).

/jp/ isn't turning into a "Video Games/Weeaboo", it's on one hand being forcibly turned into a mockery of nijiura and on the other desperately clinging on to TOUHOU/VN ONLY. Frankly we have bigger issues than mature /v/irgins discussing Japanese RPGs here; given the current level of shit I'd almost welcome that. Those threads won't pull the worst parts of /v/ here either, because they would never come here to discuss RPGs in first place. I'm pretty certain they're still thinking we're uptight cunts and they have their own board in which to have those threads already.

>I like cooking but I'd sure as hell rather discuss cooking on /jp/ than /ck/ (not that /ck/ is particularly bad).

Not sure why this thread is still here since it's all meta talk.

Alright I am going to just lay it all on the line. So far the AT/Gust people have been pretty cool customers and are carrying out their discussions in a single thread. They aren't spamming /jp/, they aren't encouraging the dreaded shitposters from /v/ to shit up /jp/ and above all they have done nothing wrong to /jp/.

So far it seems the only people who are so bothered by it are the same ones shitposting, spamming threads and making threads like this. If you want your opinion heard and considered then maybe next time you should do so in a manner that doesn't make you look like an obnoxious shitposter.

I am enjoying discussing things in the Gust threads and I expect many more great discussions to come.

>You mean the things the board was created for?
Yes, I do, but I tried to make both sides look bad for fairness' sake. Although, Japan/General did include all things Japanese and it was the community that defined the acceptable content. Doujin content of all kinds was always included in this, as was a lot of other more or less Japan-related stuff - the reason for my "TOUHOU/VN ONLY" was to illustrate how we have now detached ourselves from those as well in an effort to keep the outsiders to a minimum. I don't know if it's the newcomers trying hard to fit in or what, but everything that isn't strictly a Touhou or VN thread seems to get people angry, like the recent tea thread. The self-defense mechanism has become a parody of itself, trying to reject everything while in the neighbouring thread shitposters post their shit.

The change to Otaku Culture changed exactly nothing by the way. I'm not exactly sure why you brought that link up.

I'm still saying that you're on a slippery slope about the /v/ content. Nobody's suggesting we should take in all video games, nor is it going to happen if there's one or two new RPG threads a week.

Why did you always care about that again? You're literally the only person who ever mentioned it.

That one dev team that creates stuff for obsessed 2D otaku? The exact kind of nerds that inhabit /jp/?

You're right that /jp/ isn't /v/, but in the same vein, /v/ is not /jp/ as well. For example, the common belief is that a greater percentage of /jp/ users care more about those goofy 2D anime art games compared to the users of /v/. So there's no need to be anal retentive about those things.

Shit-stirrers like Delusional-kun disregard audience and just want to get rid of subjects like Higurashi/Rika because it's potentially enjoyed by multiple boards. Even though he knows that it's a subject that can be enjoyed very well by the audience of /jp/.

As for video game generals: who cares when /jp/ regularly had those even before /vg/ existed (Youmu general! Untranslated eroge general!). That's a 4chan-wide culture thing anyways. As for Gigs!bar, I still can't figure out his purpose. At first he was doing something very subtle in his posts (like mocking my old posts and ones by certain other Anons that I butted heads with over the years). But he's definitely not posting those things you've mentioned for the reason you think he's posting them. I think someone here mentioned that they saw through him though.
