Jesus, now I'm thankful I'm not a /v/ mod instead

What the fuck happened?

b32caf No.5097

it's over now. it's not that big of a deal, /v/ users just like drama. it's part of our nature.

I haven't kept up with the latest /v/ drama, can you fill me up on what happened? Why does blue thinks a board migration is necessary?

Mark is constantly being a fucking retard, trying to act like moot used to with a cult of personality that he will NEVER actually have, tripfagging everywhere, attentionwhoring, being retarded and banning people for anything that rustles his jimmies.

The "drama" is just the rest of the mods, (save faggot "I will ban all self moderation and sage posts" pink who wants to turn this place into a no hurt feelings redditor zone) deciding they've had enough of Mark's shit.

Basically, Blue (owner of this board and former mod of /v/) got upset that Mark would occasionally use his trip in threads and that Mark was thinking about implementing some quality control on the board to deal with users who had nothing but shitposting in their posting history. Blue then stepped down as mod and created his own board, >>>/vidyagaems/ (which is now shitposting central).

Mark made a few bleeding heart posts about how he knows he isn't perfect and that he has no hard feelings against Blue for leaving (Mark even put /vidyagaems/ on the recommended board header), all the while Blue and a few lackeys were spamming links to /vidyagaems/ in tons of /v/ threads while calling Mark an oppressive faggot.

I swear to god there's something about video games that turns people into autists.

you realize everyone outside of /pol/ thinks it's the worst modded board right?

it's the biggest fucking hugbox on this site

>upset that Mark would occasionally use his trip in threads
That's downplaying the entire thing by a fucking order of magnitude.

Mark
>Makes meetups for himself
>Goes to parties as God of /v/
>Uses his admin of /v/ status to improve his social life
>Made a patreon "ironically"
>Uses his trip in the community to win arguments, make people look dumb, and generally create cult of personality for himself just like Moot did
>Has a skype group chat so he can circlejerk with his buddies
Faggot of the highest order

09b5bb No.5135

>>5134
>Makes meetups for himself
Pretty sure they were just regular 8chan or /v/ meetups.
>Goes to parties as God of /v/
What does that even mean?
>Uses his admin of /v/ status to improve his social life
I'm gonna need some proof on that.
>Made a patreon "ironically"
Never heard of it, can I get a link to it?
>Uses his trip in the community to win arguments, make people look dumb, and generally create cult of personality for himself just like Moot did
Nobody really cares, he still gets shit on even when he uses his trip. Just because Moot did things doesn't mean anyone who does something similar is trying to copy him.
>Has a skype group chat so he can circlejerk with his buddies
Like everyone else on the internet? How petty can you get?

I'm not a Mark apologist as he can be a pretty big faggot sometimes but holy shit you're like Jim Jones levels of indoctrinated into your own bullshit.

>Pretty sure they were just regular 8chan or /v/ meetups.
Yeah, meetups he makes as stickies on /v/ so he can go to a party and feel popular because everyone there is going to be brown-nosing retard.
>What does that even mean?
It means he goes to a party wearing Vivian t-shirts, takes photos of himself, and is full of his faggot self because everyone there gives him credit for being admin.
>I'm gonna need some proof on that.
You've seen the photos, you've seen the stickies he makes, that's self evident right there.
>Never heard of it, can I get a link to it?
It's up on his Twitter. (A fucking twitter, what 8chan admin needs a fucking twitter unless he just wants to feel popular on social media)
>Nobody really cares, he still gets shit on even when he uses his trip. Just because Moot did things doesn't mean anyone who does something similar is trying to copy him.
Really? Because I see faggots sucking his cock every time.
>Like everyone else on the internet? How petty can you get?
Everyone else gets by on merit of friendship, mark just has to say he's admin of /v/ and he'll get plenty of faggots willing to suck his cock over skype all day.

So the problem here is that some mods got angry that another mod was interacting with the board and trying to do his job?

/leftypol/'s memes are so dank! XDDD

I don't mind the skypegroup and parties, board owners are people too and if they want to meet with like-minded people to have fun, why not? Hotwheels does the same thing (see: 8chan party).

That said, I've seen a /v/ mod post a thread, said thread fell down the catalog because it was uninteresting and then he proceeded to repost it, with his cap on in order to get attention. When anons called him a shitter here on meta he posted something about how we "had no idea what he did for this board", acted cocky as fuck and generally couldn't understand why that was a problem. He eventually deleted the thread and I didn't think much of it, but looking back, that was a redflag.

>Uses his admin of /v/ status to improve his social life

Managing an obscure internet community about video-games is not the kind of thing that skyrockets your social life. I administrate one and I don't tell anyone about it, believe it or not "I spend my free time moderating what people say in a weird autism filled place on the internet for free" is not a good pickup line.

wrong
mark, the /int/ guy lowcard and tech owner are some of the few owners that are now being paid by hotwheels

they have salaries

What? Bullshit, link that source nigger.
I know we have a bountysource page, but that if the users want to pay a yhird-party to finish some features, all the money donated to infinity goes to the site, HWs and the excess to non-profit as FSF.

To Mark's credit, he keeps both >>>/svidya/ and >>>/vidyagaems/ on his Recommended Vidya boards list.
