I second this. We get at least three of the same damn threads every day about how mods should delete more stuff.

This is what shitposting does to the board.

While we're on the topic of self-moderation.

Here's a rule: Use the board rules as a guide to self-moderate and not your own personal standards of what belongs on /v/ or not.

This is not *your* /v/.

You're completely wrong, you stupid faggot. Shitposting in a thread that is cancer does not make it spread and affect other threads / the rest of the board. Dubsposting to ruin cancerous faggots' threads pisses them off, and hopefully makes them leave or at least lurk more.

IGNORING cancer lets it fester. You are literally retarded, you don't know anything about anything, you're a newfag that hasn't been around long enough to understand shit about fuck, go ahead and go back to halfchan if you want a /v/ with repeating post numbers removed.

You are seriously challenged if you honestly believe this. Either that, or just plain delusional.

Dumbfucks taking it upon themselves to drive whatever they thought was cancerous off the board through ironic shitposting and dubspamming was a primary reason why old /v/ turned to /b/ 2.0, where no discussions took place, and most threads were just people accusing each other of being from reddit/tumblr/NeoGAF or samefagging. If you honestly think this is how /v/ should be, go chug down some bleach.

This "ignoring makes it worse" shit is inaccurate and wrong. We preach to ignore tripfags to starve them of attention, yet we encourage cancerous ironic shitposting to things we don't like because we think that's going to stop the behavior? Bullshit!

Shitposting begets more shitposting. Not replying to threads and ignoring them starves threads of any attention. It's literally the same concept as "don't feed the trolls."

Anyone who thinks otherwise either didn't pay attention to what happened to 4chan /v/ between 2010 and today, or was part of the problem.

Don't bother, he's the reddit poster who is trying desperately to fit into oldfag board culture.

You can tell by his reddit tier use of sage and his inability to give constructive criticism.

That ensures shill/shit threads stay on top even if they're offtopic. It's a bad policy.

a6103a No.3350

>>3344
Offtopic threads are against the rules, you report them.

If it's a shill thread, if everyone hides it, no one sees it. One dumbass can't talk to himself forever. Just make another vidya thread to push it off.

c0c12f No.3352

>>3350
>you report them.
And then observe as literally nothing happens to these threads because mark is too busy posting in them.

>One dumbass can't talk to himself forever.
If paid, he sure can. Especially when that drops good vidya threads off the board entirely.

a6103a No.3353

>>3352
>Then observe as literally nothing happens
That's the mod's fault. You did your job, no need to drag the thread's life out by baiting the OP and keeping it alive when it could be dying of post deprivation.

>If paid, he sure can. Especially when that drops good vidya threads off the board entirely.
Good threads will stayed bump because people will have interest and talk about them. If the "shill" is just spouting random facts about the game and is literally the only person in the thread talking about it you can report him for spam.

c0c12f No.3355

>>3353
>That's the mod's fault.
Exactly. And since the mods are simply never doing their job, there are 2 possible choices: moderate by yourself (result: sagebombing of the thread, which results in its expiration, which helps real vidya threads live) OR do nothing and watch as the entire board turns into shill central, because these are the only threads that ever survive.

>now that we've established that reporting does nothing, why do you do something instead of reporting the shills????
LOL.

a6103a No.3359

>>3355
>do nothing and watch as shit threads die and good threads consistently get bumped because of conversation.
FTFY

Mods aren't doing their jobs, you complain to the mods. If a thread is shit, don't reply and the thread will die.

Seriously, it's like you're totally ignorant of the hide button. This is what it's supposed to be used for.

You have brain problems and need to go back to cuckchan right the fuck now. You are EVERYTHING that is wrong with neo-/v/.

>>3362
>>when the OP can just continually bump because it requires 0 thought to post
That's when you report him for spam, anon.

If a thread is 50 posts in and only 2 unique IDs, someone is spamming.

>which means they are slower
but people regularly post in them. Meaning if they're active they'll never get too far down the post chain.

>neo-/v/.
Oh boy, Here we go.

Are you even following the conversation? Just shut up and get back to reddit.

>>3280
There is no need to give constructive criticism to a newfag when there are ten other threads made by angry faggots about how dubs frighten their anus.

>Implying sage isn't used when you don't want to bump a shit thread, and hasn't been used that way for long before reddit existed

Nah, fuck off redditor.

>>3279
Every time the same tired bullshit. You ignore solo tripfags. When cancerous faggots start making threads, they draw in more cancerous faggots into the threads to circlejerk and establish precedent and community. To make sure those faggots know they are not welcome, you destroy their threads so they do not stay.

Worked on /a/ for years for rec threads, naruto threads, etc. /v/ got raided by /b/ regularly pre-2010, and mods interfered with shit. Pretty sure moot was already preparing to crack down on post numbers in 2010.

>Are you even following the conversation?
I'm following it perfectly. You however, I'm not sure. You sure do love to say "go back to reddit" for someone who wants a system similar to reddit's to gauge content.

If mods aren't doing anything, complain until they start taking on new ones. Or make your own video games board, holy shit. You're either really fucking hick headed or just dumb, or both.

No, the faggots come here on their own, and bring their kind with them if left alone to do so.

You are literally retarded, try to follow the conversation here. At least try, you sad little idiot, if you aren't just being intellectually dishonest and spewing bullshit out of your impotent rage.
