>> No.8564825

This board was made purely for touhou and visual novels in the first place. J-pop and other weird japan stuff threads happened once in a blue moon before.

If anything /a/ and /jp/ should just be merged back together

delete the board, make it 2d random, or delete it. the website doesn't even want to discuss visual novels here because the kind of people that filled up /jp/.

the user base just spends all their time trying to disassociate themselves with 4chan so much they don't even talk about relevant topics anymore. it's even worse than ever.

>> No.8564833

Why would you cut out half the possible board topics on an already dying board? Is this some kind of strategy to kill /jp/ once and for all? Keep this shit on /jp/, but don't expect us to bend over backwards when morons from /v/ come over to discuss their "feels" while playing KS.

This. VN/Japanese games are being posted on /a/ and /v/, and the only reason people hated Touhou was because of the hijacks (which I don't think you can do anymore with captcha). It's better than creating a new board for VNs because there's so little you can talk about on this board anyway.

>> No.8564841

I've never had a problem with them

>> No.8564842

It's fine. People don't know what they want here and something broad like "otaku culture" makes everyone come up with their own rules.

>> No.8564843

VN & LN are basically all this board has. If anything needs splitting it's a touhou board. Not that I really want that.

/jp/ suffers from a lack of acceptable content, not too much of it. It would be nice if you could actually write a little more in the rules than ``all things otaku culture welcome", because people get the impression that anime discussion is welcome here and shouldn't be put in /a/. I'm all for taking it easy, but rules would be nice.

First, we get a hiragana captcha. Quality of /jp/ improves drastically ...for a few weeks, when we notice that a lot of the shitposters enjoy shitting up /jp/ enough to learn hiragana. So we try a katakana captcha instead, and same thing happens, works at first, but doesn't take long before everyone can bypass it. So we decide that the kana are a little too easy to learn, and decide to move on to kanji, using grade 1 jouyou kanji, which most veterans should know by now, but should be enough to scare away anyone unwanted. Things look brighter, but with time, it's undeniable that /jp/ is starting to return to how it was. Let's move up to grade 2, that should be harder! Same thing happens. Grade 3, same thing. Grade 4, 5 and 6, same thing. High school jouyou! A golden age of a few months, and then the same. Well, fuck kanji, let's do some vocabulary. Same thing. Advanced vocabulary! Advanced grammar! 2ch slang! Osakaben! Yakuza slang! The way samurai addressed their daimyo in the Sengoku era!

And about 2 years after the hiragana captcha was introduced, most /jp/ers know more Japanese than Japanese people themselves.

this except for the whole issue of light novels, as long as light novel threads stick to one or two threads I suppose it would be fine... to me though light novels still seem like something that would better fit elsewhere, there are too many genres of light novels to just say they all belong here, don't forget, this is otaku culture, not all light novels can fit into that.

They're fine here, because 1) visual and light novels are rarely translated to English and 2) people barely even PLAY or READ the ones that actually do get translated.

moot: what you should do is make a board for touhou and then a board for other weeaboo shit. get rid of /a/ and /jp/ and just make one board for touhou and one board for other weeaboo shit. This will solve everything, as the majority of content on /jp/ is touhou and people post VNs on /v/ and /a/ anyway. Trust me bro, this will work.

if you do please make it clear shitposting does not belong here either.

The only problem with making this the center of VNs (and LNs) is that 80% of the posts will be "how do I DL" or "why does it not install" or "why isn't it translated". If that issue could be addressed somehow I'd be all for that.

Moves that can potentially save /jp/:
-Change the name of the board to /jp/-Touhou/VN
-Hire a couple of dedicated mods/janitors who aren't normalfags, and are willing to delete any shitposting on site.
-Limit VN discussions to /jp/. Enforce this rule on /v/ and /a/ so that /jp/ gets a bit more activity.
This is all I can think of. Some people on /a/ are suggesting that /jp/ should be deleted, but this board still has some potential left.

Welcome, new user to /jp/ - Japan/General! Hah, just kidding, this isn't Japan/General. This is Touhou/Visual Novels/Doujin Games.

If you want to discuss the different places you can visit in Japan, I suggest you go to /trv/ (though they also seem to hate Japan there, so don't annoy them too much). If you want to discuss the Japanese language, go to /lang/ (yes, 4chan has text boards!). If you want to discuss anime and manga, go to /a/ (some series that are based on light novels/VNs/games like Marimite and Higurashi can also be discussed in /jp/, it really depends, so lurk a bit to see what's acceptable). Finally, if you want to talk about Japanese history and culture, go somewhere else, nobody here knows or cares for that stuff.

/jp/ was created as a board to get rid of Touhou and visual novels from /a/, it was never intended to be a board about Japanese culture. Most of the users here don't care about Japan, we only care about lolis and doujin games.

Ok, you already learned the true meaning of /jp/, but you aren't ready to post yet!

There are some rules you have to respect in /jp/ if you really want to be accepted!

for the love of god moot don't force /a/ and /v/ to come to /jp/ for visual novels, and especially for light novels. i'm saying this because it'll only ruin the community for /a/ and /v/. /jp/ spends most of their time talking about how they're better than /a/ and /v/. every time i click on this board the top threads are meta discussion where people spend all their time trying to disassociate with 4chan. it's like a race to the bottom of the barrel where if you found /jp/ 2 years ago on reddit you're proud.

If you take VN away from jp then all that is left is idol, figure, doll, doujiin music, and touhou threads. Touhou making up the majority of these.

If VN is to include the occasional 3dcg, school mate, love death, rune factory, ar tonelico, and other "not quite /v/" games, I foresee /jp/ being a very repetitious, slow moving board.

This being the case, if the rules for /jp/ on topic threads were relaxed to allow anime, doujinshi, etc, I feel it might work. Only because these interests usually are intertwined and often the people that frequent this board have different tastes in anime than /a/, for the most part

The previous Anonymous called for a ban for anyone who used this name.

I take issue with this, since this identity is a beacon of light in a board of darkness. When the terrible janitor deletes /jp/ threads because an angry shitposting autist reports the thread, the janitor becomes a pawn in an elaborate game of shitposting, orchestrated by a few /v/ posters in a Steam shitpstr group.

It would also be nice to have more rules enforced, such as informative and quality comments, and adherence to the NSFW standard. Is NSFW allowed here? It seems arbitrarily enforced.

What happened to dozens of janitors, by the way?

Basically, if /a/ is discussing anime, VNs and occasionally Touhou - why does /jp/ even exist?

If you believe /jp/ actually likes that shit then you're more deluded than Glen Beck supporters. That isn't /jp/'s culture at all, that's just you being a complete fucking retard. If you're at all proud of that then I suggest you go have a ball posting random things on /b/.

Asking what is /jp/ is like asking what is /m/. The users want to talk about what they like even if it's barely related to the board theme.
Kinda like pre-split /a/ had various threads about VN, touhou, mahjong, and other shit. So as the legend said, moot took its sword and cut it in half. So we had /jp/ for visual novels and shit, and /a/ for animu, mango and forced meme taken from loliporn.
What happens now? /a/ (and /v/) are back to discuss about visual novel because "/jp/ is shit" (we know). So we're back to square one, and people even want a new board (so a new split).

Moral of the story: 4chan is shit. People never learns. Thanks for trying, moot!

The people spamming the board now will eventually go, a few people will stay. Unfortunately, it'll probably snowball and /jp/ will become a total clusterfuck.

If he made a board for visual novels, but we still spoke about them on /jp/ would have probably been the best solution. Although it is hard to say.

>> No.8565168,3 [INTERNAL] 

>>8565168,2
The sane solution would simply be to have non-shit moderators who made sweeps for both off-topic shit and 4chan culture violations. By that, I refer to overly "noobish" posts. I'm sure you know the type I'm referring to- I know I was one at one point in time.

>> No.8565168,4 [INTERNAL] 

The sane solution would be not to implement any change regarding KS and VNs. /a/ and /v/ can discuss whatever shit they like, be it KS or applevsorange random /b/ topics. It has worked for years, I don't know why moot caved in.

Oh moot.

There's a sort of irony to all this, considering how in four days it'll be the four-year anniversary of /jp/'s creation--a board that was made (among other reasons) to remove visual novel discussion from /a/.

>> No.8565168,14 [INTERNAL] 

I for one think this was entirely the right decision. Having people who are actively interested in Visual Novels come to /jp/ can only be a plus because, let's face it, boards live from the influx of new posters who bring new ideas. At any rate it is better than dying ever so slowly by more and more shitposters who came in the hopes of finding a place full of otaku and weaboos.

I'm pretty sure in a few days the whole situation will have calmed down and we'll be left with only those posters who have an invested interest in VNs and don't care about the other aspects of /jp/ and those who didn't bother checking out /jp/ until now and come to find a liking in it, such that they integrate into the board culture.
