Friday night threads create multiple conversations when they work right, not necessarily about video games but it does have posters communicating with each other in a means other than just trying to sniff out who is a jew or a shill. There is the argument of it being old-culture as well. Speaking of old-culture theres the 4am threads but they're honestly a complete fucking mess and I'll admit to visiting them once in awhile because i yearn for the 4am threads i remember back on 4chan, but these ones are also an avatarfag circlejerk run but an autismo NEET apologist

Shit like that has always been the case. When you ban some stupid faggot or faggots who just can't help but spread their virtual feces everywhere, they ban evade and then do it more.
The trick is to point them out and call them out. Public bans and even stickying shamefur disprays could help. Having a more consistent culture against faggotry is usually good. Even still, you'll always have those stubborn cunts, but eventually they go away (see: quentin, pretty sure he killed himself).
Also, I've always felt like the term "lurk moar" needs to be used again, or some variant of it. That shit matters - just coming to a board and posting right away is always cancer, and ousts you as an outsider niggerfagot.

The constant shitting up of various threads is more pervasive than one might realize. Especially the webm threads, where it's about ~10% vidya, the rest is reposted normalfag shit that isn't even remotely 8chan related. Pretty sure there are dedicated shitposters who flood those threads intentionally in order to drive people away from them (since webm threads are somewhat of a staple of 8chan culture).
Also, while tripfaggotry might be gone from here, you still have dedicated groups of shitposters who organize elsewhere. Maybe take some more steps toward fixing that shit.

I think a problem that /v/ has, and by extension 8chan has, is a low population. A low population means the less tolerated have more of a voice than they otherwise would, which is not necessarily a bad thing. It doesn't help that politics have become injected into vidya left and right, and now buying or even talking about certain vidya is a political statement. It's not really a symptom of the people posting because the western world itself seems to have been set alight with political grandstanding (I blame leftists/jews, but whatever) so it becomes hard to not only enjoy our hobby, but even talk about it. It's really just a dark time for vidya. Our hobby is taken over by normalfags, most companies engage in politically correct horseshit that is unavoidable and aimed directly at the main userbase of places like this. There are other problems, of course, but that's a big one for me.

My opinion, if anyone gives a shit:
>Cyclical webm thread
You know people are just going to make a new one the moment the old one is considered obsolete. Might as well sticky that shit and keep it going indefinitely.
<why
Cause it would save people the trouble of searching for the thread, for one. Also it would probably make it easier for vols to keep an eye on.
>Cyclical "current happenings" thread
This is where people would post any new "tangentially related" industry development. See, you tend to see a lot of threads like, "look at this shit review by Polygon!" or "hey check out what these faggot corporations are doing to make vidya worse!" or "hey look at what this dumb ass e-celeb said about this!". These threads aren't strictly about video games, they're tangentially related and often politically charged. If you have a cyclical "Current Happenings Thread" (or whatever you want to call it) and make it a rule so that any additional threads of this nature are banned on sight, then the catalog will be much cleaner. It will force this type of discussion to be relegated to a containment thread. Keeps the board clean, gives people a place to discuss this shit. You know, isn't this what GG threads were originally for?
What else? Honestly I don't know what you can do about the shitflinging, off-topic threads, or the general board climate. I think it's something that the average board user must actively fight to change. When you see worthless posts, don't engage, don't pay them any mind. You instead have to try and come up with worthwhile topics and actively avoid the bullshit. Shitty board = shitty users.

Agreed but that's a simple and obvious decision. So would a thread about Wolf 3D getting derailed about whether and to what degree Hitler was or wasn't right.
The problem comes in when the game being discussed clearly political themes that are meant to cause emotional reaction or discussion or if a company starts virtue signaling with retarded political shit. The line gets fuzzier there and I don't know what the right point to start moderating would be.
I will say a big part of the problem is that the actual political discussion boards on this site have all gone to shit and are impossible to actually discuss anything on with getting shouted down or banned. The overflow ends up gumming up every other board.

Hello, I purpose you make it so the IDs who only post non-videogame threads get banned temporarly, and then linked to /b/ where there non-videogame, facebook tier content belongs.
Webm threads on /v/ should be about videogames instead of hundreds of non-videogame posts.
If you would skim over the thread you can see that when you call out these non-videogame spammers they will just do a low effort, content-less shitpost reply. Pic related is an example of many in that very thread.

It will fail because the site is designed in such a way that popular/iconic imageboard names can be claimed first-come, first-serve. It's why /newb/ and /bbbb/ failed and also why a /v/ alternative would fail all the same because you got here first and staked a claim on it.

The issue with webm threads is the stale OC production and repetitiveness, not to mention the not even board related content that's piling up over time.
It's not rare for a webm thread to have one anon with 50+ posts basically dumping something, just something whether it's old, new, vidya, not vidya.
We really need some form of way to encourage /v/ related OC to benefit the board rather than offer a place to anons who want to just dump some shit.
It reminds me of the state the draw threads were in when they were flooded with freeby thirsty waifufags until they were removed and the threads did not appear every single day anymore but instead in moderation.

reporting needs to be done in a better way honestly. there are dedicated report spammers who will blast the queue with one-word reports, and i'm not even exaggerating when i say that sometimes one of us will wake up to a queue that's 100 deep where an autist has reported literally every single post he sees as "leftypol", "reddit", "spam" etc. reports that have no detail attached or are even blank are virtually worthless unless you want the vol to dig and dig, and sometimes that's just not an option when things are moving quickly

>what do to about webm threads
1. first 75 webms (or some other arbitrary number) must be of video game footage. reposts or not, but users should be encouraged to post new content
2. everything after that can be off-topic/non-vidya providing that video game webms are still being posted. i.e. you could get really autistic and say, "your off topic shit needs to be half the upload size, so that you will have room for at least one more accompanying webm that is of video game footage"
3. we have archives; if users are just posting the same shit over and over in order to meet the arbitrary number of webms before they can post non-vidya shit, crack down on that.
<downsides
1. will require a lot of attention from the moderation, which may not be feasible
2. will likely be met with resistance from shitters who want webm threads to be a dumping ground for shit memes and whatever else
just a thought.

Yes it does. If he cannot categorize shit correctly is undermines his credibility and makes it seem like a newfag whining about shit he doesn't know about.

He categorized it by what he thought was and wasn't vidya. You just don't agree with it and for a lot of them so do I. He probably wants to see more pure gameplay webms. I can't really blame him since we don't get much.
>He repeatedly put 2hu into anime
Was it the 2hu anime? If so that's not vidya it's anime. It's vidya by technicality but if all I see are amv's of that shit I see no reason it needs to be posted often.
>while putting things that are explicitly vidya into non-vidya
I'll say this once again. And please listen this time. EVEN if you took away every example you didn't agree with it's still a lop sided thread with less than 25% vidya. 229 non vidys and 45 vidya. Even if you cut it to 200 that's still a ratio of 75/200 or 3/8'ths. You need to move on from this part of the argument because you're missing the point.
>>14556375
>I can tell you shitters always start shitposting hard in webm threads around this time and it usually dies down during the summer.
People being pissed about webm thread content is year round. And the chances of anything shitpost related ending in the summer are nill and only shows how new you are. You have a few threads where complaints aren't brought up, but you always have people reminding you faggots that the thread has turned into a facebook dumping ground and all you can do is call them autistic with no arguments. It's amazing this didn't happen sooner when you think about it.
>I wouldn't be surprised if you are part of the shitposters that pull this same shit every year trying to fuck with the board.

>the problem is shitposters shitting threads up with nothing of value or starting shit that derails threads.
>derailing
>a webm thread
I ask this every time and you fags never give me an appropriate answer. What the fuck do you want out of a webm thread? Because you don't want vidya (because you never post any) and you don't want offtopic discussion (which gets banned for rule 8). So what the fuck do you want? A retarded little circlejerk where you post videos to each other wordlessly like a fucking archive? You can't even establish what you're trying to achieve out of posting the webms endlessly and yet you want people to go along with it? This is /v/idya. The focus is vidya. If you don't like it move to /b/ and actually make the board not half the shithole it already is by contributing to it. Or do what Mark wants to do and recommend he makes that alternative /b/ so you don't h ave to deal with it and you can post webms of any nature to your hearts desire. Either way the Webm threads here have been reaching a boiling point for years now. And assuming Mark doesn't change his mind I'm in full support of it and will report users who can't post even things loosely based on vidya.

>he said whining to the mods
the fags in that thread came in, didn't post a single webm, whined about about reposts then said making OC was too hard, and complained that only a few posts ever get replies.
One posted two posts only asking a volunteer who had posted in the thread earlier to reply to their post.
Webm threads should not be policed because there is no good place to draw the line between what is and is not vidya. Gameplay is, but what about something like this >>14551091 (second webm), which is a joke about Oblivion? Then what about something like >>14550648, which is a (pretty funny imo) joke about titty beach volleyball games from an episode of scooby-doo?
>>14550701 has what appear to be two songs from games (I'm not familiar with either so I can't say for certain). All of these webms were called "not vidya". Then there are posts that I'd say can be fairly called "not vidya" but are still valuable in a vidya thread, like >>14549940, which for a Rollercoster Tycoon 3 fan like myself is super evocative of the game's coaster cam function, and made me imagine what a new RCT game could look like in 10 years.

No because they were complaining that the webms weren't vidya. And even IF some of us started making OC it still wouldn't change the fact that there are anons who make over 50 posts of nothing but offtopic content.
>Webm threads should not be policed because there is no good place to draw the line between what is and is not vidya
It's not hard actually. Snuff videos and 3D shit isn't vidya. If you remove those you remove about 50% of the posts in the webm thread. Even if you JUST removed those quality would raise by a good sum.
>which is a joke about Oblivion?
You don't seem to understand me here. You can try and deflect critasism all you want but you know just as well as I do that the majority of the webms in webm threads are NOT vidya. I'm not going to just fucking ignore that becuase you're trying and failing to add a grey area that doesn't matter.
>which for a Rollercoster Tycoon 3 fan like myself is super evocative of the game's coaster cam function

>Not just /webm/ threads that have /pol/ or /christian/ or b8 posts that just turn into 50 webmless replies to whatever b8 webm the shitposter posted.
It's like the anon says in the webm thread. I would rather a webm thread with 20 webms and the remaining posts discussing the webms than a thread full of nothing but webms and no discussion. The fact is that discussion in the webm threads aren't allowed because they always turn into non-vidya shit. Some of the people there flipped a gasket because of a pit bull debate. But so far I've seen no reason as to why it should have been banned if threads aren't vidya related. There needs to be a decision made here. Either webm threads are not vidya and non-vidya discussion is allowed or you clean it up and keep it vidya. It's not hard.
>As a whole shitposting to derail threads on this board has been getting worse and worse as the years go on.
This is true and I think it's due to unrest more than anything. People are getting tired of the repetitious threads that say what we already know or have already discussed. The best thing we can do is try and spice things up and keep them interesting. Which is why a big issue right now is if we should remove low effort or (1) and done OP's.

>The fact is that discussion in the webm threads aren't allowed because they always turn into non-vidya shit.
check /vg/'s webm thread, virtually all webms are vidya, virtually all gameplay (iirc) and the whole thread is mainyl just a boring slog through FPS footage with virtually no discussion of the webms because more often than not watching unedited gameplay is BORING. If I wanted to watch people just play video games I'd be on youtube or twitch or something, not here. I'm the sort of person who would rather play a game that watch someone else play it.

Answer my question I asked the other anon. What do you fags want? Offtopic webms and discussion being allowed, or vidya only webms? Because as it stands all you post is offtopic webms, and then bitch that the discussion aboud said webms are offtopic. Talk about shooting yourself in your own foot. If you want higher uality threads then don't sabotage them before they even start.
>>14556622
>Can you point to one from the last thread?
Was just an example of a non vidya post. You and I know that there's a bunch of videos political offtopic or warzone deaths being posted there.
>but there's an undeniably subjective element to deciding what is and isn't vidya
Thinking that a video of a rollercoaster is vidya related isn't subjective. It's objectively not vidya. And it's why this board doesn't allow a thread based on this premise.
>If a post reminds you of a video game, then why WOULDN'T it be related to vidya?
Because it's not vidya. How hard is this to accept? By your logic ANYTHING can remind you of a vidya game. All you're doing at this point is trying to prove that you post non vidya so you can remember vidya instead of just posting vidya. In which case why don't you just fucking post vidya? Or better yet if it reminds you of vidya then why don't you post the webm with a lengthy post discussing Tycoon? You have no argument here, I'm not even trying to meme, I can't find your point.
>check /vg/'s webm thread
>just go elsewhere if you don't like it
No. I come here for vidya because I want to discuss games.
>virtually all webms are vidya
How would you know if a video of a roller coaster is vidya in your books?
>because more often than not watching unedited gameplay is BORING
.t redditer. Sorry you find video games boring. But it's not like you're making anything to counter it are you? Plus it's still on topic and it's also OC. Which makes it better overall content despite no discussion because at least you don't get banned for trying to have any.
>I'm the sort of person who would rather play a game that watch someone else play it.
Then don't browse the webm threads. And besides that not all vidya webms are just raw, uncut playing.
>I'd much rather see nonvidya used to make vidya jokes and the like
Mark disagree's. And frankly you can do this on /b/ or elsewhere just as easily. Or (again) you could just make the joke as you posted the webm or do what the filename threads do and put the punchline in the filename. There's many things you can do and you're pleased with nothing other than what we have now, which only exists to serve the ego of a small group of autists.

>check /vg/'s webm thread
onward I am talking about that thread, it's a terrible thread but exactly the kind of thread you want. Almost every post is undeniably vidya but nothing changes. There's no discussion due to the very nature of watching things, the same reason porn boards tend to lack discussion. The reaction is virtually the same: "that's erotic" in porn threads vs. "that's neat" or "that's funny" in webm threads. You might like or dislike the post, but there's almost never any reason to say so. The thing that generally generates discussion in those threads, is controversy, be it pitbulls or faggots trying to censor them.
>because I want to discuss games.
If you want to have a discussion about something go into almost any other thread on this board and you will find one, but webm threads will not get you one because they're more focused on content than discussion.
>How would you know if a video of a roller coaster is vidya in your books?
As I said, it looks like something right out of RCT3, but IRL. Compare the embed with the coaster webm and you'll see what I mean.
However that's not the issue when talking about the /vg/ thread, as I said most webms in that thread are explicitly game-related.
>Mark disagree's
a.) citation needed
b.) many of the board's banners do the same thing these kind of webms (which I believe are the best) do, make jokes/commentary about vidya using "nonvidya" sources
>put the punchline in the filename
Some webms I have mentioned did this like "oblivion gameplay" but we shouldn't need to tag every post we make with "this is absolutely definitely vidya and relates to X game", that's just retarded, if you've played the game/s it's applicable to you'll probably get the joke, if you haven't you probably won't.
That's why I say it's subjective, because there are so many games and no one's played them all there are going to be webms that for some people are instantly evocative of a video game while for others it might seem completely unrelated to any game they've played. I didn't post the coaster webm, but I think I know what the anon who posted it meant when they did.

To you contribution is flooding a thread with offtopic webms. So by the same measure so is discussion about them and so is pit bulls. Either answer my question on hat you consider an ideal webm thread to be or quit wasting my time.

>Compare the embed with the coaster webm and you'll see what I mean.
I see it. The other webm still not vidya. You're not going to change my mind by providing context since I played the game myself and didn't think of the game when I saw the webm. Admit it, you're either stretching this shit so far just to make a point or you're incredibly autistic to the point where everything you see reminds you of a video game. Either way this isn't vidya.
>citation needed
Read the thread.
>many of the board's banners do the same thing these kind of webms (which I believe are the best) do, make jokes/commentary about vidya using "nonvidya" sources
Those are banners. And again their still vidya related unlike a fucking video of a roller coaster that's been reposted on the webm thread over 3 times in a row now. And if you're going to bring up banners then I'll (again) bring up threads and how if you tried to do this shit on an OP you would get banned on the spot.
>but we shouldn't need to tag every post we make with "this is absolutely definitely vidya and relates to X game

>if you've played the game/s it's applicable to you'll probably get the joke, if you haven't you probably won't.

Almost seems ripe to actually fucking post them so people can learn more about them and discuss them.
>there are going to be webms that for some people are instantly evocative of a video game
And I'm saying that's not a strong enough reason to post 50 fucking webms that have nothing to do with video games. Your entire argument is that people can post whatever they want because they're loosely related to video games in some way shape or form. This may be the most retarded argument I've heard in a long time.
>Don't twist my words, swine. I find watching games boring,
So instead of discussing them you want to post webms that have nothing to do with games on a video game board? Actually listen to yourself here because I can't fathom how retarded this shit is.

Not that it's bad. I'm talking about actual vidya webms between just retitling webms.

Well let's see threads to setup /v/ coming together and sing were all maintained by one guy (a complete faggot btw) he's gone and he ain't coming back and this board has never had a /v/ sing along ever since, /pol/acks who 're crossboarding between both have all but left entirely (but to be fair that's because of /pol/ drama) but they were the regulars for Doom threads and those took a huge hit in activity and now it's gotten to the point where it's a generic retro FPS thread, TF2 guys and the Anons who are here only for game night packed up and moved to /vg/ and they comprise a third of the activity on this whole board. I could go on, my point is the people you want gone are the only ones who will keep those threads alive. They will not obey the rules, get banned, get pissed, leave holdovers will desperately try and keep things alive then give up and either lurk here bitterly or simply join back with 4chan. There is no large unity going on here just a series of divided cliques.
And all because you care too much about something none of those guys cared about since the first couple months of the board's life under Mark..

Not webm threads. You're missing the fact that webm threads aren't required to function in the way game night and activity threads do.

What makes you think it will get slower because the majority should be vidya related? What are you even basing this off of? If it pisses off people enough to leave then they'll likely migrate to /b/ or another board and nobody will be worse off. And the only reason the webm threads move at the pace they do is because there's 2 or 3 autists who do nothing but dump the same shit for several dozens of posts.

Ellipsis and exclamation points are commonly used by outsiders who don't belong here.
exclamation points usually are old faggots who are trying to spread some stupid idea of there's or rambling about philosophy. the only I people who I see use them are over the age of 30.
ellipsis are commonly used by redditors and tumblrs, they use it for sarcasm or as a sign of weakness (example: "whatever you say…" or "ok…").
it's a thing they do unconsciously like with meme spacing, and stands them out as people who do not belong.

Board death is what you get when you combine elitism (same shit that killed 7chan, I warned you faggots about this years ago) with a newfaggot board owner who, almost exactly like moot, wants his own personal /b/ with video games while simultaneously banning for opinions he doesn't agree with. Congratulations, Mark/v/, you earned it.

No they're fucking shit. Mark needs to delete the gacha shit and the rest of the aforementioned because it's peddled by offsite crossposters and people with zero fucking taste, and when they start becoming regulars you get a massive drop in quality.

Lolno. We're not competition, we're an alternative with our own standards, and your kind isn't welcome here. Posters like you are the kind that are killing this site. You'll sit here whining that we need more users until it happens, wonder why the site is even shittier than it was a half a year ago, and then leave and do it again somewhere else.

part of the problem is back in the "good" days of 4chan if someone made a retarded post it would get met with like 2 people calling them retarded and then just straight up ignored even if the retard replied to those posts because don't feed the trolls. now everyone has to give their fucking 2 cents and somehow think if you reply to someone trolling enough it will bring up the quality of the board. related to that is nobody reads threads. you will get the exact same post 100 times in a thread sometime because fucking idiots don't know how to control+f or reverse image search or even type 2 words into a search engine

At this point in time /v/ is pretty linked to quite a few other boards which is why you see some of their content bleed over into /v/ and also visa versa. As such its not just strictly vidya which is why you get /tech/, /pol/ and /a/ bleedover among other things.

There's definitely to much cross board posting I feel. Which I wouldn't mind if it didn't create this fucking vortex of mind games where every post you make creates a brick wall of suspicion.

/pol/ needs to die because it is infested with roaches. It's not just the mods, people on /pol/ constantly link to freaking turkish websites. On top of that you get shady articles. It wouldn't surprise me if that board is only around to destabilise certain countries.

>cross board posting
Last I checked 8ch's /a/ is pretty much the endgame of this whole content regulation debate where all of their threads are directly related to their board's topic and there is zero tolerance for shitposting or fartposting but at the cost of all native content creation, discussion of indirectly related material, as well as harsh enforcement of tangent rules including skewed interpretations of grammar and language. Without leniency there is no room for growth or inspiration, but with too much leniency the userbase would devolve into an unfocused proto culture. I'm trying not be the "oh both extremes are awful therefore I'm the best because I fencesit" asshole but in this case there should exist a happy medium.

>I'm trying not be the "oh both extremes are awful therefore I'm the best because I fencesit
I think that's the problem. There's no alternative solutions allowed to even be considered and we have a go to jargon with no facts to deconstruct any opinion that hasn't even been explored that well. And when we consider going for something we've explored there's no connectivity and people bitch, and the mods fold. It happened with the 4am threads, it took several months of constant proof that the undertale threads were nothing but yiffing, and it may never take the LOL threads no matter how many times people might bitch about them. Add this to the fact that the moderation rules have clear exceptions for its constantly enforced rules with certain generals and you'll never get rid of people who aren't happy with the way things are.

To be fair, when most of the suggestions in these threads are things like, "restrict/stop/ban X" rather than "add/implement Y," there's going to be obvious pushback. It's much easier to see if something you added isn't working rather than removing something and trying to determine the effect of its absence. Bringing up the topic of board activity, I know there's people saying "well we just need to foster a better community to get more OC/better threads" but in all the meta threads I've seen it's been just me and a couple other anons actually bringing up suggestions to make that community happen, and even only a fraction of those suggestions aren't "gamenight but in a different form."

There's pretty obvious ones that should tbh. Like "banning" people who post from 4chan on the spot. There's just to much shit people can assume that would make you from there to actually be able to prove it without them posting some blatant shit. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's had an opinion that was a bit outside the norm and was accused of not being around here despite being here much before the GG migration exodus. I don't mind some paranoia here as it keeps us on our toes but this needs to die down a bit obiosuly.
>It's much easier to see if something you added isn't working rather than removing something and trying to determine the effect of its absence
Well sometimes it's both. Like dis-allowing certain threads to post outside of certain time frames or not restricting just how much offtopic content should/shouldn't be allowed in a board (a big contentious issue that we'll probably never get over).
>but in all the meta threads I've seen it's been just me and a couple other anons actually bringing up suggestions to make that community happen, and even only a fraction of those suggestions aren't "gamenight but in a different form."
You're not wrong at all about this. You can't fix a problem by hosting a game night. And I've texted mark a few times for a movie night or something to his living tumor he feeds off of, that he calls a disagreement, and never gotten replies back. the disagreement shit is the worst part honestly, at least to me. The fact that he sits in a room with people only he gets to remove because he doesn't like them essentially tells you everything you need to know about how his posting habits are and how they don't correlate with ours at all. Add that to the fact that everything he's said there has been likely sold as info to investors is the cherry on top
