There's a clear difference between complain about /v/'s moderations (not even specifically about /v/'s moderation) and openly criticizing /v/'s moderation. That's one unnecessary ban, and if that's how you're rolling, you're no different from half chan's moderation.

I feel like the faggots who keep crying that fullchan is gonna become le reddit or halfchan are likely just the dregs of this fucking board. The most autistic, angry, lonely faggots that this board has to offer, they've been banned from everywhere else on the Internet and this is their last haven, and they hate 8chan taking steps to cull their shitposting habits.

Basically, fuck off forever, faggot.

Based on my considerably smaller experience with /v/ (second exodus fag here), he doesn't come to even /v/ all that often. Not as often as he should, at any rate.

Reported for shilling, not sure about the request of a ban, however.

To be fair, at least one was acting remarkably shill-like. I arrived in the thread after conversation was well under way. Forgive me, but I just don't have the free time to read threads already a hundred replies in before responding. The thread might be auto-saging before I'd get a word in edge-wise.

>>3481

OP, why didn't you post the ban time as well? You sat and spammed reports for everyone who disagreed with you. Your entire post history is literally 'Fuck off, shill' or "Shills are in this thread". If all you want to do is talk about how everyone is a shill, I think giving you a 30 minute ban to redirect you to /metav/ so that you can pinpoint the shill volunteer conspiracy that's facing /v/ was a fair thing to do.

Now you've got your conversation started and people are able to chime in. Do we have marketing shills on /v/? Yes, but only 1 out of 1000 threads is a legitimate "shill" marketer. Those threads are dealt with. There's a difference between a fan and a marketer and you know what, people are allowed to have different opinions on the games that they play or don't play.

Spamming the report queue everyday with 50 reports just saying "shill", doesn't mean those people are actually shills.

You got a 30 minute timeout so that you could come here and talk about this shit with me and the other users who frequent the board. Calm the fuck down.

You're saying that me cying "shill" is a stormfag tactic, and I should not use it ever because its a stormfag tactic, and I would be associated with them.

So. You don't want me to ever consider shills being on any 8chan board because it would make me look bad.

It's almost like I never brought "shills" before someone reminded me of shills. That's.. strange, huh.

Regarding Mark, There's a reason I'm Board Owner here. Blue_, Pink, and I are the push/pull force here on Mark. We're trying to keep him in line and the three of us check /metav/ pretty much every hour.

We WANT to have these discussions with you people, because we know everyone has the capacity of being a major faggot, users and volunteers alike.

And I'm saying that even if he was saying that, your little shitfit is pathetic and overblown.

Get rid of /metav/ and make a containment thread on main /v/. /metav/ is a fucking joke. You and your volunteers would be taken to task by full /v/ for your posts here if anyone actually bothered to look.

That's what I think as well, but it seems to me that people nowadays, including the mods, haven't browsed chans for too long and they really don't know what chans are even about, so they try to run it like a forum or something, "keep it civil and on topic" and all. I find it rather boring, but what can we do? Most of the userbase likes the way things are.
I mean, we could make our own board in which we could take it easy and talk about shit only tangentially related to videogames, but we'd have to shill it real hard for it not to die.

/metav/ has been apart of the rules and plastered on the front page of /v/ since September. A majority of the userbase asked for a place where they could get in touch and have discussions with the volunteers. They wanted a place to appeal bans and find reasons for other people's bans. They needed a place to post smugpepe and call us faggots. This thread has 22 users in it, which is probably a record as far as /metav/ threads go (except in the case of the SFT discussion a few months ago).

Most of /v/ didn't want the meta discussion on the board. We had stickies and discussions regarding this with the entire user base with the September exodus. This was the solution the majority wanted. People pop in here when they have an issue, you are always welcome to direct more people here and we'd like to see it as well. But we already tried the containment thread on /v/ and it was shit because it was just users bitching at users.

He called someone a dense fuck, it doesn't exactly qualify as "sperging out." Stop trying to shine the spotlight on him as a person rather than the topic at hand.

So this majority decision occurred around the second exodus, correct?

If so, you're right; 8chan had a plenty big enough userbase by then for majority decisions. I can't ague that.

I think this sort of discussion should go in battlestation threads, yes. Desks and chairs aren't particularly vidya-related.

Of course, if I had my druthers, all peripheral devices would go in the same thread, too. Mice, keyboards, headsets, gamepads, monitors, all that shit. In-depth discussion warranting a dedicated thread probably belongs more on /tech/.

>Foolz spam is an issue and we're working on how to best address it, but adding it to the rules seems like a decent place to start.

My personal suggestion is, be transparent about it. There's no reason we should know the reason for the ban. I don't really know how you should make and apply these new rules besides prohibiting spam, but you need to be clear about everything you do or don't. That's part of what led the first exodus, and a major problem of a lot of communities I took part of.

>>3607

People opinions change. Maybe you should apply the gamergate rule and allow only one thread per board, and if mods are really doing their jobs well, there wouldn't be a reason to make a sticky, as that thread would not pop that often.

>/metav/ has been apart of the rules and plastered on the front page of /v/ since September.
And it's been a bad idea since september.

>A majority of the userbase asked for a place where they could get in touch and have discussions with the volunteers.

huh, like /v/? you know, the place all the volunteers moderate?

>This thread has 22 users in it, which is probably a record as far as /metav/ threads go (except in the case of the SFT discussion a few months ago).

Only because you've banned and deleted probably four OPs this morning for bullshit reasons, and won't allow discussion on the main board.

>Most of /v/ didn't want the meta discussion on the board.

Great evidence you have there. Did you determine it with strawpoll? Maybe a show of hands? No doubt it was infallible.

>we already tried the containment thread on /v/ and it was shit because it was just users bitching at users.

I've seen the one thread thing done on others boards besides /v/ and it's never nearly as neat as you would think it would be, trust me. It's difficult to follow for the mods, causes unnecessary friction with the users and shit never gets done.

I'm absolutely NOT talking about a "bitching general", just a "A MOD IS BEING A FAGGOT RIGHT NOW ABOUT THIS" thread. prolonged discussions should go to /metav/

Another possible option would be to open a thread here, inform the /v/ thread about the /vmeta/ thread and only them locking the thread.

>>3636
what? no. Why would that be necessary? Its not like there's enough bitching about /v/ to even justify 2 boards. /vmeta/ IS important, but it should NOT be the only way to

I think a meta thread would be alright every once in a while, but not as a constant thing. Maybe as a weekly or monthly leave-it-up-for-a-day thing.Because I think a major drawback of meta boards is that while they're better for single bans, it's harder to suggest changes to the whole board because the majority don't come here.

exactly. when I thought of a single thread, I was taking more about having multiple threads calling mods fags for the same reason.

Having a monthly meta thread while reminding anons about /metav/ would be nice.
Even if the thread gets shitposted, at least it will be contained.

d44086 No.3650

>>3649
Why contain it?
Seriously, if the front page was filled with people complaining about the mods, that's probably what people want to talk about. You can't go around forcing discussion topics on people and "containing" them.

I was more implying the monthly meta thread could improve relations between /v/irgins and mods.

Cuckchan mods were completely disconnected with the userbase and many even began to hate them, lets make sure /v/ doesn't go down that road.

if you remember the three times a day 500 posts per thread "why is cuckchan so shit" threads period (late september to mid october), you'd know why meta shit isn't allowed on /v/.

Not to mention the "why is /v/ so shitty" meta threads that do nothing but float on the front page like a bloated corpse like a self fufilling prophecy.

That's a valid assumption, but it doesn't have much of a basis in reality. People post a lot more frequently when they're angry about something, so it wouldn't be an accurate representation.

But if nobody cared about the complaints then those threads would quickly fall off the board. There's even a catalog to find other threads that might have been obscured by the complaints.

We could try locking the ability to create threads on /metav/ for like 3 days to a week and see if the idea would actually work. Personally I see it would cause lots of complaints from the regular users of /v/ but I dont think it would hurt to try. But you have to be clear that its just a test and only tenporary otherwise it might cause a shitstorm.

theres been a ton of threads being deleted lately that arent breaking any rules.
you could argue that "some" of these deleted threads are duplicates but each and every time its the older thread that gets deleted. and plenty of continuation threads arent deleted anyways.
i like to see discretion being used and not following the rules to the t, duplicate threads have never been out of hand and theres plenty of room for every topic that people are interested in discussing.
there seems to be some heavy bias at play

the only time duplicate threads even come close to being out of hand is when theres some supposed happening that people want to talk about like the law n order episode or supposed smash bros rayman leak
4ish threads tops. some topics near the bottom of the catalog get bumped off that nobody was dicussing. never bothered me

for the most part the mods are doing great but let people have their fun
