This isn't strictly meta but, I want to ask you anons, on which other boards do you actively converse? I lurk several ones but it's usually just obnoxious meme'ing where nobody even bothers to read your posts. The reason I post on /lit/ is that it's a bit different that way, not strictly out of enthusiasm for literature.

So the topic doesn't even matter so much. But I'd like another one where people read, think, and reply.

/v/
/d/
/tv/
/sp/

I only come here when I'm banned from the others because sometimes I can get a good wank thread going here.

this board is mostly pretentious underage garbage and /pol/ roleplaying though. nowhere near as good as /tv/

/mu/ is pretty chill. everyone shits around but nobody takes themselves seriously. the mega threads are always helpful. usually thats when they do act serious and become pretty friendly.

i lurk /tv/ for the terrible threads. there really isnt much tv going on there though and it is retarded. but you get some funny threads every now and then.

/lit/ seems pretty full of themselves. you pose a question and it becomes a debate rather than a discussion. can get pretty annoying to talk about things here. still, ive gotten some good recommendations from here.

i used to go on /a/ for one page threads but everybody there is like a tween working at walmart, unhelpful and smug.

I lurk/post on /v/, /lit/, /mu/, /tv/, /g/ and a guilty pleasure: /r9k/.
You can get a decent discussion going on /lit/, /mu/ and /v/ if you tried hard enough. Sadly, this is no longer possible on /tv/, the memes have won there.

Thanks. Last time I checked every /tv/ thread immediately descends into insults if you don't join the circle jerk considering blacks and females. /sp/ is good on football match days but I'm tired of £200m dabbers running about

don't watch anime or play any games so those are a bit moot

/tv/ is the Dionysian id of internet boards. it is on levels of irony that haven't been discovered anywhere else yet.

it is the platonic ideal the rest of the boards are slowly moving towards.

/x/ can be quite good.
/fa/ has some good threads sometimes, mostly milspo, but is terrible most of the time.
[s4s] is pretty good these days, much nicer than a year ago.
/his/ is also pretty good.
/mu/ and /tv/ are abominations to be avoided at all cost.
/an/ is simply too slow.

The most intelligent board is probably /pol/. /His/ is ok. If you can find a good general on /vg/ it can be nice.

why do newfags feel it's acceptable to make posts like this?

Do they find themselves so bewildered by the lack of a downvote button that they must nationalistically announce their dissatisfaction to the world as a last ditch effort to assert the identity? if this is true what does it say about them?

/fit/ is too much humor and sometimes dabbles into /r9k/ territory, but below the surface it's one of the best natured boards with a good heart

It has to be by default, and I say that as someone who's been there just a few times. White men who dedicate their time to diagnosing and trying to fix the political, social, and economic problems of their age are going to be the most intelligent cohort in a compartmentalized community like 4chan.

Not really, there are some smart people there but the amount of idiocy is much worse than on most boards. White men who dedicate their time to diagnosing and trying to fix the political, social, and economic problems of their age have a tendency to devolve into stagnant groupthink and regorgitate whatever clever thing one of the smarter Anons says until it devolves into idiotic platitude.

I agree with you anon. I think we also need to recognise the sheer number of posters in /pol/ + quick cooldowns mean that quality discourse is going to be outweighed by shitposting. That being said, places like /SIG/ & /SG/ are genuinely valuable, and /qanda/ is hilarious

Well, like I said, I don't go there and hear it's a cesspool of shills now anyway. But generally white men who have the discipline to learn about the nuances of the JQ and its effect on society are going to be more intelligent than people who care about cartoons, post about TV, or even have their heads buried in fiction books.

This. /his/ was pretty cool up until /pol/ started seeping in. You could actually learn cool shit and discuss history without it immediately devolving into why blacks and women are inferior. Now basically every thread there just starts out that way. It's pretty sad desu.
