What happened to you, /jp/? You used to be so cool. We used to have hours of discussion on the newest vn translation drama. We'd sit around together waiting for the Umineko TL to drop. And then it all went away. What happened?

moogy can go fuck himself, ever since he got me banned from his shitty irc crap

I imagine most of the people you've discussed TL drama with are now fluent in japanese and are having lots of fun in the VN general thread.

because cross channel is a pretty good read, but it's really hard to tl, so they want to look good.

Who the fuck is Gamepatch, Pacula, Aninga, and Masat?

Don't know about the first three, but Masat was that guy from the #ammy irc who, when Ixrec made the first poll of what he should translate next, came out near the end of the poll and said that he would translate Baldr Sky. This resulted in Baldr Sky not winning the poll. He then proceeded to make it really look like he was translating the game, but he wasn't. He was a huge troll. I think he's in the Navy now.

Bullshit. Masat01 wasn't even around back then, and Baldr Sky lost because it just lost. Inganock won a surprise victory in that poll. Ixrec loved the game and Sheeta was heavily campaigning for it, and on /jp/ there wasn't all that much support for it, hence Ixrec being denoted 'election fraud expert' due to people calling bullshit on the poll. (The poll itself seemed to be legitimate, just people being obnoxious.)

Masat01. Random troll from #tlwiki that 'picked up translation projects' that nobody took seriously. Comparable to the 'I'm working on it, will be finished by next week' posts in the VNTS threads.

Because the posters there spend most of their time reading VNs.

If you dedicate more time to /jp/ than you do your /jp/-related hobbies, then you are a filthy /jp/ secondary and probably a shitposter.

Dat. /jp/ is now /touhou/. /vn/ is where you want to go to be cool.

moot just needs to delete /jp/ and make /th/ and /vn/.

It's bullshit confining such wide-ranging media into clusterfuck general threads with overlapping discussion. This is exactly the sort of situation where general threads don't work, at all.

Nice well thought out opinion you have there, shame it's completely stupid. I guess some people wont be satisfied until everything has its very own autistic category so that it all makes sense for the mentally challenged. For everybody else it's quite clear that /jp/ isn't a hobby specific board and that Touhou and VN discussions have only ever made up a small portion of what gets posted.

Strange, I do recall a time where Touhou and VNs made up at least half of the threads on this board.

>> No.11224134

>>11224083
Your personal perception with a bias to see what interests you isn't a good measure for anything.

My feeling is that /jp/ had less 2D otaku stuff at the start and a more broad range of topics. Then around 2009/2010 a new generation of losers dropped out of highschool and decided if it ain't Touhou it ain't NEET which you now had to be to be allowed to post here. So /jp/ was changed to Otaku Culture to appease the hipster weekend hikikomori Touhou fanbase.

After /q/ and the moderation overhaul the majority of threads just became the same old rehashed shit and entry level discussions. But even now you can't say the entire board is just Touhou and Visual Novels.

Funny how everybody has a different take on the same subject, huh?
