It was never about the age of this or that console.
It was about the flood of shit that would result if 6th gen was allowed and how threads about older games would get pushed off the board.
We've been immediately proven right.
I and others also felt that the Dreamcast represented the end of an era, and the games that came afterwards could never belong to that era no matter how old they got, but I admit that's more subjective. Keeping out the flood of 6th gen threads was reason enough.

[Anonymous No.6800627]

>>6800575
Remember all of that autistic headcanon about how the term "retro" actually referred to a time period (like "medieval") which was based on literally nothing, all while the board sticky itself more-or-less implied that the rest of the sixth generation would become retro when the ninth came out?

The benefit of having a slower board is that if someone starts a NES thread and no one is interested in discussing it right at that moment, the thread will still stay up for a while and won't be gone in an hour. That will give more people time to check out the thread and maybe end up trying some games they hadn't heard of before.
With 6th gen allowed, the board will get significantly faster and there will be less space on the catalog for more obscure games, so there are fewer chances for serendipitous accidents like that.

[Anonymous No.6800853]

Before the latest change, the speed of the board suited my schedule. I could come back from work and talk about a subset of games with, at least it seemed, other like-minded adults with similar schedules. I've gotten some good recommendations from threads that would otherwise be pushed to page 10 now. I don't care about the definition of "retro," I just care about the culture of the board. Especially when the mods are willing to make boards for a single genre, but I guess it's too much for whole generations of vidya history.

This probably happened because there were no mods left who were old enough to care about the subject of the board and therefor moderate it. Towards the end there it was nothing but stolarposting and jarpig this and "what's your favorite beltscrolling scotformer?". I feel like this was probably hastened by people shitting the place up.

The mods stickied a thread about how they were thinking of pushing the dates out for the release of xbone 2 and ps5. People immediately started posting back and forth about why this was a good or bad idea. They chose 2007 but only for games; this was to stop convo about ps2 games from 2008 onward.

Well predictably, even though they said it wasn't official yet and they were just throwing it out there, so many shitheads started posting 2001 to 2007 game threads that they erased the whole board, and so mods just said fuck it and made it permanent right then and there. Friday night and it hasn't been the same since.

People are still actively looking for a place to go to that can support old /vr/. Mods have demonstrated through the support IRC that they don't give a flying fuck about the state of the board. If you want to see the thread, look in archives for a 2000+ post sticky featuring wind waker link as the OP image.

What is it with this idea that if you just make threads, that things will go back to normal? 4chan is a river; the more posters you have, the faster overall the river flows, and you have to keep that pace or greater to remain an open thread. The problem with this for /vr/ is that it's one of those boards that has more old users. It's not a bunch of teens with time to kill (though they are here). It's defined by dudes with jobs and lives beyond shitposting 20 hours a day. You're never going to get the old threads of the before times because the people that made them and posted in them are drowning in the increased speed of the new board as it's flooded with not only modern topics, but also heavy shitposting. How long are we expected to wait before that dies down? How long does anyone expect old /vr/ to stick around for that? The reality is that every day passing means that more people leave. It's like the only answer is to just find a new website since the folks running this one just don't care.

So far, this whole thing is a disaster for everybody except the 6th gen shitposters. Even people who wanted to post in earnest about gba, Xbox, etc. are now getting hit by angry old /vr/, or just pushed away by the same flood of shitposting. The entire spirit of the board has been wiped out in a single day.

I'm tired of explaining how mods were retards to block a 1999 console from being retro in the first place, and furthermore how instead of just admitting they were wrong, using 8th gen as an excuse for it to "now" be allowed, which created the door through which we now receive ceaseless shitposts.

1. Mods should never have not allowed dreamcast by the exact definition of the board rules of "hardware released in 1999 or earlier"
2. They never should have justified it by saying that the 8th gen came out so "now" dreamcast is retro. They should have just said "we fucked up and suck cocks, post dreamcast". Apparently they were too afraid of being shown as incompetent so they doubled down on an excuse. Now we are seeing the result of that.
