/jp/ - Otaku Culture

That alternative costume looks familiar.

Maybe it's a YOU problem

How was /jp/ like back in the day?

It'll pick up when Touhou 14 comes out. Or 13.x, which ever comes first.

/jp/ is actually one of the fastest boards on the site but NSJ deletes 98% of all posts within 5 seconds of them being made

>>8969149
It was still shit, but it was much better shit.

I think it has a lot to do with the community.

>>8969160

Dirty lie.

I don't see how that is a problem.
Fun things are fun, and it's easier to take it easy when you can take it slow.

>>8969160
I think because people have to make new threads every 10 minutes because their old ones get deleted.
>>8969167
Explain more. Details motherfucker

>>8969141
>Ever notice how slow /jp/ feels these days?
No, if anything it's faster than ever with more shitposting is the cause.

>There's nothing to post about anymore.

Wrong also

>>8968607

It eventually becomes a problem when a board out-discusses all the fresh topics at more than tenfold rate. It only takes so long for the "consumption" to catch up with the ideas for topics.
i.e. Everything has been and will be discussed to death.

which 2hu wud u fuq?

It gets slow, so people leave, making it slower, making more people leave...

It won't last much longer.

I miss the Type Moon powerlevel discussions. /vg/ and /a/ took everything except Touhou.

the NSJ deletes all of the good threads, so all we have left are the boring ones nobody cares about.

>>8969267
False. Some people will never leave. At least not until only the spambots remain, anyway.

Ever since Moot made a bunch of changes to the boards, /jp/'s just kinda been super shitty. I mean, it was shitty before, but it's not the same anymore...

>>8969274
/jp/ has been complete shit since 2011.

>>8969267
Leave?
Where? Gensokyo?

>>8969274
What chenges did he make

>>8969279
I suppose so.

>>8969278
If there was another suitable place for someone like me, I would leave this instant.

But there is none. This is really like the asshole of the Internet, the final stop.

>>8969274
I am of the opinion that /jp/ is in dire need of an user ID implementation, much like the one its Japanese equivalents have. That would reduce the amount of situations in which damage control measures taken by the staff would be needed, methinks.

Okay let's look at the front page:
>spoonfeed me plz
>meta troll thread
>touhou
>dumb japanese bullshit w/ no replies as OP pic
>shitposting general
>meta troll thread
>spoonfeed me translations
>Kigurumi
>NEET
>touhou

oh wow look at all of that not shitposting

>There's nothing to post about anymore
/jp/ since day 1

>>8969325

You should do something to fix it then.

This board was pretty much made for Touhou and its hijacks.
VNs and other forms of otaku culture (or Japan/general related) were merely included to keep it a bit more lively.

Let's face it, this is a trash bin board like /mlp/.

>>8969352
But I like this trash bin.
I mean, it might be trash, but it's our trash.
And it's much better than pretty much all other boards in this website right now.

The good posters all left for /a/, so now all the left are trolls and the dregs of old /jp/. /m/ has the same problem.

>>8969378

I came because I heard the place was dead and thought I'd poke it with a stick a few times before the flys started showing up.

>>8969385
go back to your roleplay friends on /b/ thanks

>>8969388

I haven't posted in one of thous in a long ass time. They have no need for an old man like me anyway.

It's just another die off phase. There's an intermittent cycle of oldfriends fading away quietly and an influx of new and the most egregious shit posters, eg Homura spammers, from other boards and repeating the oldfriends history. There are outliers living well beyond their expected lifespan but they're rare.

>>8969294

This would be a great idea, actually.

>>8969294
I support this

/jp/ is dead as a board these days. Most active discussions that are still within the sphere of the "community" are the dozens of IRC channels on Rizon, while the board remains a place for less serious stuff.

Those who aren't into the IRC thing have moved on, either to /a/, /bun/ or /tc/.

It's not so much that it's shitposting causing the board to feel slower, but that shitposting is all we have left because we've discussed everything already. Unless a new game of the month comes out or the Fumo threads and similar get full, the only other posting is shit.

don't worry, i've been here since forever and will never leave
;_;

>>8971933
Get a load of this IRCfag crossboarder scum on his high horse.
Yeah I'm sure your epic level secret tripfag discussion is sooooo much better than our shitposts. Why don't you leave this board then, faggot?

>>8971975
And this is why everyone's leaving.

Are you really going to let them win, /jp/?

>>8971975

Look at this tryhard.

Bet he got banned from IRC for being so obviously autismal.

shit, this board has become too much like BunBunmaru

better rename it to /jp/- Touhou


wheres the "good" type moon threads, japanese bird, autism etc

>>8971986
You're not a true /jp/sie unless you make serious posts, contribute as much as you can, be helpful, report rule violations, and then proceed to shitpost everywhere with uncontrollable diarrhea like you're 8 years old. Preferably in the same thread.

what eles is there 2 discuss lol

>>8972077
Everyone knows specifically avoiding memes and catchphrases (on 4chan) makes you fit in more, newfound aglet.

>>8969325
Why don't you make a non-shitpost thread then, faggot? Let's see what you got

>>8972077
A high class elegant little girl such as myself will not stand for crude language such as newfag.
And the other often use word newfriend make me want to vomit.

It's kind of annoying when /a/ refugees complain about their being more /a/ refugees around.

Face it, this place has been fucking chuck e cheese for years now.
