Define "shitpost".
You're welcome to articulate how OP is a fag however you please, but trying to shit up a discussion with lazy spam that only promotes others to do the same is just a recipe for board sliding.
When you decide that you have the insight to discern whether or not a thread deserves to be shat up, it empowers other people to do the same. Perhaps you personally are wise enough to do it responsibly, but the inevitable result from that is that other crybabies who aren't so wise end up using the same tactics to kill discussions whenever they have to deal with opinions they can't handle.
No.18577
>>18576
When I say "shitpost", I mean just sage while telling OP to fuck off or rolling for dubs.
It wouldn't really be much of a "slipery slope" since all it would be for is if OP and other anons cannot react to critcism and starts to damage control and ruin his own thread.
Basically, if someone makes a CoD thread, gets told why CoD is shit, and then starts shouting "FUCKING GAMERGATE WEABOOS", then some red flags need to go off.

">>18448
Yeah you need to make a new sticky. This one is awful and conveys an extremely autistic control freak vibe that would make any sane person do a 180 and leave.

Eliminating all fun is going to bleed the population, not save it. There would be plenty of chances to get people here with Mark sperging out so much lately, but that sticky will scare a lot of people away.
I just want a /v/ without the sperglord kike owner, the template threads, and the "I don't like this game so I'm going to spend half an hour spamming it instead of just filtering this thread" which doesn't do anything but generate shitposting from what otherwise would have been a thread that got bumped off the board with zero replies or an actual video game discussion. Calling OP a faggot is fine and all, but when you've got people with a dozen or more posts saying the anon doesn't like this game with 4 smug anime girl images attached to each one, something needs to be done.
The post you linked to looks good enough to just straight up copy paste into our own sticky.

My guiltiest pleasure is Take On Mars. For me, it was a great way to relax, to figure out how to get from site to site efficiently with as many science stops as possible, to feel the challenges of navigating a rover on Mars, and to fiddle around with the semi-programmable command system with the rovers to see just how shit of a real NASA technician I could be.
In reality it's a fucking snoozefest for most people and the learning curve, especially with the very tight early-game economy, is near-insurmountable. It's really obtuse sometimes and it's tedious at best with no real goals other than "go explore shit on Mars and maybe draw dicks"
>WHAT GAME DO YOU THINK HAS THE BEST TYPE OF COMBAT SYSTEM, OR WAYS TO INTERACT WITH THE ENEMY IF IT'S NOT VIOLENT?
Combat system? In terms of action games, definitely a toss-up between the combat system in Majora's Mask or Windwaker.
In terms of strategy games of any type? Hearts of Iron 3, especially since it's pretty moddable. I love having a tooltip detailing a particular unit's combat bonuses in understandable and clear-to-read sense, instead of War in the East's absolutely autistic system.

You shouldn't turn away new people as a matter of principle. What you should be doing is trying to mold new users into the kind of posters you actually want to interact with. If they refuse to comply, then you tell them to fuck off. The phrase "lurk more" has always been apt.

Maybe he meant newfags as in 12yo mememasters, for that we already have ourselves and the mods to ban the excess of it
Newfags as in since 2012 posters then it would be tough, everyone was a newfag once, but we had education, the mandatory one year browsing /b/ (after going or seeing old forums) and then going to another board
Completely agree with molding new users in the ways but they should not be so new, this i mean with lads derailing threads because someone posted goatse or forgetting to stay on topic

>let people find their own way
Just like 9 months ago? i dont like the concept itself but it needs to be done, obviously not in a large scale but we need at least 10 new users, we are maybe 8 to 15 here, we are going to be running in an endless labyrinth talking to each other to the point we will recognize each other

This place is kinda clean compared to the old days but still we are very liberal in the use of slangs and derogatory words, along with strong ideologies for the mainstream and lewd/gore images, like a sailor pub.
That's the thing i meant to mandatory runs in harsh and erratic places, newfags generally can't stand it or they end up crazy
What's your opinion on that transition? where you already initiated on that or you just don gave a fuck? i ask this because it can shape the way we can attract people in a hypothetical, far out improvable but still possible idea to grab outsiders

You can mail HW and explain your reasons for the coup, then he would judge the move
Markike is an old buddy from Jew York in the crisis days so him removing the BO status is very improvable, he would slap his shit and grab his balls but kick him is not gonna happen soon
This place i don't remember how it switched BO but i think the old one just settled down and let another take in, i might be wrong thou

It's been that for a LONG time now from what I've seen, sadly. A lot of times someone would note a quality drop on /v/, I'd see people around saying stuff like the people here at /svidya/ were the ones causing it to try to get more people to come here. And from what I'd seen, there didn't seem to be any coordinated effort to do anything like that here.
>>18674
I wouldn't say I abandoned it (I usually checked back once or twice a day to see if any threads I'd been interested in had gotten any replies), but once too many people leave, people aren't going to take the time to post as much since they may or may not get a response (or hell, the person they were replying too might not even be around to read it anymore). Nice to see there be such an influx of posts here today though.
>>18750
Personally, I'd prefer to have a board grow on its own since being proactive about getting new people from other boards seems to just cause people to head there to start shit. Not sure if that's much of an option here though. Still, maybe see if some of the other vidya related boards might be willing to toss a link into their headers or whatever? /vr/ might be open to it, especially since they're already in the board header.

It's a little of both, don't want to sound like an oldfag or an elitist but back in the days things were a little more xtreme and lawless with berserk mods who somewhat shared our ideals and tried to stay on the ground so we wouldnt call them out

The thing with /sv/ (or at least what this place was supposed to be) is that we are the more strict, hardline place with no fear of mods blasting their hammer. Also casual /pol/ crossposters
That makes it restrictive and not really an equal to /v/, we are just a cousin or something, but that was the idea months ago, i dont know now.
So does increasing our numbers depend solely ONLY on the /v/ user pool?

/pol/'s growing numbers wise, but the quality's dropped like a rock and the moderation there's awful. I'm not expecting /32/ quality from the place, but the idea of a smaller, higher-quality board is attractive, and I think /politics/ and /svidya/ can fill the niche.
I do agree with the BO that moderating for quality doesn't work. The user base has to buy in. /v/'s doesn't. However, bad moderation can send the users the wrong message. A lot of /pol/ buys into what imkampfy does, but those are the same posters who do nothing but meme and search for happenings that aren't coming. It's better to let the community dictate where the board goes and clean up obvious problems as they arise.

Absolutely spot on, if the user base doesn't want quality discussion/posting, then there's nothing moderation can do. Poor moderation however can accelerate the degradation of any given site.

Overall apart from being a spaghetti dispenser when people gave the bantz he was quite nice and did have some decent opinions
Also he said americans were shit and etc (who DIDN'T say that on /sp/ at one moment?) and that australians were better, minutes later strayas ruined his thread asking him about what he fished on the river or what oracle did he use to know the result of a football game
Strayas have to be the most piss-taking (sometimes literally) social group i have seen on any board, those guys were another thing, no wonder m00t hated them

That's what he did in September/October
There was a point in late November that if he banned all the shitposting (that was somewhat considerable), there would've been little backlash
It was until December that newfags outnumbered the old ones, newfags as in people who came late and didn't know how stuff worked before, so they just realized the board was well-managed (it wasn't) and stayed there, then lot of people later came and didnt know anything better so they just settled
Mods helped in the early days, but honestly it was the users who actually TRIED to up their post quality, didnt shitpost AT ALL and made on-spot threads, we were good like the oldfag legends said about 2004-2005 /v/
Also 60 to 100 PPH helped mods a lot, 150 in weekends

and that it what pisses me off more than anything about being banned.
mark has made it very clear in what he wants for the board, and i dont want any part of it. everyone whos still there at this point that has seen whats going on will defend his retardation to the fucking death, or just shitpost any complaints you have to death and get the thread bumplocked to keep it all hush hush. not that i care, im going to be in every meta post that i catch until i get an explanation out of the jew and then i can put that entire shithole out of my mind.

Dumb or naive, maybe he didnt saw or didnt realize how fast the place grew up, because it did
But things like letting Reddit come in and take a seat, only to get slapped by HW and forced him to change his talk to kick them at Voat makes me believe he's just a jew
Malicious and egocentric, in different proportions but there's always 2 of those.
Moot was a piece of shit jew but i have to give him that in the first years i saw his actions (before him being a trip-queen) he actually let people shit all over him and he just told users to throw shit AND make points for him to read and think them later, and some of those he actually managed to pull (minority points he coud manage, he wasn't a good webmaster after all)
I insulted him a lot of times, made banter and even shitposted with shoops, and many people did, not a single time he or any mod banned me nor did i know of someone who was slapped by him without obvious offenses, in those days of course, he later got something inside his head and went berserk and/or didnt care at the end. Mark behaves in one year like moot did after 8 years
>ebin '04 oldfag
I'm not one either but i read countless times how oldfags would talk and explain what made /v/ good once upon a time, and we were very close to be that
You explain your behavior when you came, but you were a minority, in fact not going to Burchan for years made you more aware of your situation as a person who wanted to lurk moar, that's something most people didn't realize, you had to check, see what's going on and then participate (projecting here i might be wrong in your case)
Those days and those exodus (Novemberfags, December Holiday Kids, February Redditors, April-Spring Break dudebros and Summer kids) just brought people who checked threads and shitposted without looking for things, and we for some time did things differently
People disliked non-vidya in webm threads, right now it's a meme but mods did ban or warn people who were posting non-vidya, gachimuchi was allowed because examples posted were almost always vidya themes
Terciary/Nosense threads or what the BO calls it "sneakier attempts at off-topic discussion" were banned in public or shut down immediatly
Seen that banner that says HE (was banned for this post)? first or second time a thread was banned in the early days when HE was an epidemic, later on they just did in hidden
Right now it happens all the time and mods dont give a fuck because they were told to do so justifying /v/'s "culture", we were another culture at some point, he regressed us.
Honestly, you could check 8c/v/, then for memory movements or an outdated bookmark you would return to 4c/v/ for some reason, you would know you were in the wrong place due to the posts, this way before you noted that there was a captcha fill and the image thumbnails were different (like how November cucks made a thread for Mark to change the thumbnail sizes emulating Burchan)

shortly after they were banned and brought back, people were reposting the same webms so fast, they were hitting the bumplimit within a few hours and starting another thread the minute it hit 400 posts.
so mark said ( but never put it in the rules for whatever reason) "that the OP must be vidya related, and state that no other webm thread can be created until this one falls off or hits the bumplimit. even with that rule in place, we were having like 4 webm threads a day with the same fucking webms over and over.
they only got good again after bui raided the board and no one had te patience to try and post their shitty webms ~5 times. one thread could last a week, and it was mostly either Oc or webms that wernt posted as much, because everyone stopped posting in them, thinking it was still a pain to do so.

He promotes his own tastes yet shuts down anyone elses, this includes the constant MGS stickies and allowing of clang despite breaking his own set rules.
He also admitted to be having mental problems, which isnt inherently wrong, however he should keep that away from his job, /v/, rather than shitting up the board just because he forgot his meds.

do whatever you want, im not forum moderation professional, but replacing him isnt going to make the board any better. itll fix the moderation to some degree, sure, but it isnt going to fix the retarded userbase. its pretty much stuck as r/gaming lite at this point. i dont see anything wrong with posting here, slow as it is, and letting the assburgers namedrop the board on /v/ to show how cool they are every once in awhile, potentially drawing a few more users that way. that and advertisements maybe.
but like i said this isnt my area of expertise, so do whatever you gotta do.

I fucking hate Mark as a BO, he does nothing to fix the quality of the board, he flat out ban shit he doesn't like (anti-Nintendo, anti-anime), and he ends up causing more trouble than he needs to (mass banning people for no fucking reason what so ever, i.e 4 AM), and the fact that he has a giant crowd of people who defend his every step is absurd. In fact, I want to know what the FUCK Mark was thinking when he decided to spout some shit about threads IN HIS OWN FUCKING STICKY, and then ban people for replying. That is the most 4chan tier sketchyness I've heard of since I fucking came here.
But you fucking retards went with this in the worst god damn way possible. If you wanted to convince people that Mark was shit, all you had to do was STAY on your board, don't spam ours, and bring it up some more on the meta thread and not sperg out for >(70) posts. You decided to take an actual problem with Marks cuckchan tier moderation, and inflate it to the point no one is going to take you seriously. You are all acting like /ints/ rejects trying to cause more shit, especially with all those posts on /svidya/ "wanting to spread the truth about Mark". Really, all you had to do was just not focus on anything, and just focus on getting Mark to realize his mistakes and apologize.

It doesn't matter what you show him or what you say to him. People have already tried reasoning with him with screenshots and posting histories, it doesn't fucking work. He's a fucking retard that believes it when some random anon tells him his mumble is full of goons but disbelieves and ignores any evidence someone may have that disproves it.

there isnt any reasoning with him, he always has an excuse for his fuckups, as if that makes up for whatever it is he did. i will enjoy seeing what weasely ass explanation he gives for deleting board logs. my guess is " i only deleted the board logs because /svidya/ would try and use them against me. there up now though you guys, so that makes it all okay, right?"

Hello /svidya./
Thanks for allowing this thread. Every cap is absolutely vital to a case being built by some anons over on /operate/ to hand to Jim about a group of vols who are the worst abusers of their positions on 8chan. Frankly, there's no reason Mark deserves the /v/ board name, as it's expected be a globally reserved name and anons expect to be treated right on /v/. Perhaps /svidya/ should have the /v/ name rather than Mark, who's proven he can't handle the responsibility.
With the help of all you from /v/ and /svidya/ who have suffered censorship and other forms of vol abuse from Mark, we can lay out a case to have his board removed from him, and stop bring attention to other vol abuse on 8chan.
Please be sure to post your experiences dealing with Mark on /operate/. The /operate/ BO won't do anything as he's been found to be covering up vol abuse on /b/, but it's still important to get the message out to the 8chan community.
Don't let Mark cuck you quietly. Be loud about it.

I mean i don't get why shitpost in the same place as you discuss games, that's what other boards are for
Thing is most people dont want to crosspost and they are blind about mods executing the rules, so they are in an anarchic state of unhappiness and madness

as for the rest of what you just said, im not going back to /v/ because i already told mark that i wasnt. besides, i have no interst in what the other users frequently post about, ie battlefront/star wars 5, fallout 4/toddposting, games journalism whatsoever, the fotm tumblr punching bag ( not that there is anything wrong with that, im just not interested in participating in it ), fucking life is strange, telltale shit, etc.

FYI this is the response for a recent 100% confirmed ban streak by a globally accountable vol:
"but the simple reason notlily isn't being held accountable. Is because you are clearly a minority when it comes to this issue. " –Nunu: re hotpocket perma bans
Evidence of the vol permabanning users for personal amusement, and users who disagreed with him was presented. THAT was the answer by the /operate/ BO. He also keeps getting caught in lies as he scrambles to make sure nobody in the vol clique ever gets held accountable.

HW wasn't ok with the bans, but Nunu presented the issue heavily redacted (you can see him lying in that thread, then contradicting himself) and then did nothing in response to HW's answer.
It's admitted that the bans were wrong, plenty of evidence the vol was just targeting anyone who disagreed, but Nunu just doesn't want anything done about it. /b/ is a globally accountable board and it's never been "no rules for vols".

Sorry but that's bullshit. There isn't some imminent threat to 8chan that needs corrupt vols to prevent. No amount of good excuses abusing a vol position, since that's by far the worst faggotry that can exist on a site and by far the biggest threat to a community.
Ever since HW left for IRC various vols have grown bold with their faggotry. They've lost sight of what 8chan is supposed to be and are turning into little dictators because HW was literally the only thing keeping vols in line here.

It's an excuse, especially on global boards where vol corruption and censorship isn't supposed to be a thing. Telling users who are getting cucked worse than 4chan to be quiet and go sit alone on a tiny board where nobody can see their posts isn't an answer.

I reached to the global who feeds me info and he gave me the inside scoop, and it's pretty dramatic. So this is what he told me:
HW started an IRC network. He gave 8chan to Nunu who now owns /operate/, the top position of 8chan which "operates" all other boards. Nunu's /operate/ is funded by a mysterious man with only one name, they call him "Jim" but that might be some kind of code name. The story goes that he's a shady underworld business mogul who fought some kind of duel with a Japanese guy years ago, and that somehow it was a draw and both lived to tell the tale but went into hiding, until now when the Japanese man (who might be a samurai or something the global says there are rumors) showed up at Moot's apartment and took control of 4chan, and then Jim showed up in his private jet on the roof of Hotwheel's highrise in Thailand and made a "deal with the devil" to fund 8chan. When Hotwheels realized who he made the deal with, he made some kind of blood oath with Nunu which passed the debt on, so now Nunu is Jim's servant and has to spend all day every day at /operate/ until Jim frees him. So that's when Hotwheels ran away and built a deep web thing called an IRC network to hide in, I guess because it keeps him safe from Jim or something.
That's all the global told me so far but I'm trying to get more out of him. He says he needs to be careful about saying too much.

You say that like there's a choice on the matter.

That conversation amounts to little more than arguing over semantics. If you're that same anon from months ago, you should really hop in the current meta thread and respond to this point this time, directed at the board owner.

That sounds like a pretty reasonable stance actually. It's pretty disingenuous of you to try and equate it with /b/ or /vvv/. This board still has clear rules against posting /b/ shit or random "/v/ culture" garbage.

Gee whiz, it's like there's a group of people that love division and co-opting alt boards to smear them. If you don't know their plan by now, to attack small boards while shit talking big boards to create division without allowing for a real alternative to take hold, then you're willfully stupid.

Hi Reddit
>and the current BO was VERY clear that he does not give a single shit about quality control and considers boards like /b/ a gold standard for "live" because in his mind, the lack of quality control makes it work
It's because the community is what makes quality, and if you can't work around that, then you have to be proactive in maintaining it rather than reactive like Mark has been. The quality on this board right now is higher than /v/'s had in a year.
>>19691
>Wherein it was made very clear that the priority is post count > quality of post count. Good job on /vvv/2.0.
Except that's always the case on boards like this. It's why /v2/ never took off, why /justvideogames/ remains dead, and why /v/ is full of cancer ass generals when they can make their own board, and why /vg/ and numerous other niche vidya boards apart from /senran/ sit there, barely used. Anons are the kind that want McDonald's over a fine steakhouse because it's served fast. This is nothing new.
Also, /vvv/ fell apart because it was unapologetically /ints/. /ints/ has since changed its tactics to harassing and nuking smaller boards through claims abuse and false flagging as posters on alternates. I ended up claiming /ks/ after they completely trashed it, and /confederate/'s ruined by them. Rumor has it they just took over /polpol/ too and plan on using it to try to siphon people tired of /pol/ there, rather than /politics/, which they're currently spamming with their memes to drive people away.

>why /justvideogames/ remains dead
/justvideogames/ owner here. To be fair that might also be partly because I'd done absolute fuck all to advertise the board. I kind of wanted to see what might happen with it through word of mouth but it was really just an excuse for being lazy. I made the board as a response to some bullshit that pissed me off in one of Mark's meta threads, and those anons from that thread did follow me over there briefly. But I haven't mentioned it anywhere myself since then. I guess I feel kind of guilty shilling my own board.

Not really. /vvv/ is the same as /am/. It got posted on by /intl/, when they were still attempting to bump up board alternatives before they decided to go full retard, but the "/intl/ shills" faggotry was all /v/'s work.
/vvv/ died because the BO gave up and wouldn't even clear the board after it got wiped or even set a thread limit after it started getting posters and got wiped multiple days in a row.
No.19713

Well, just don't be a faggot about it like the BO of /politics/ is if you do decide to start shilling. I have it up on /dir/, but I don't think many people really use my directory anymore, other than as a way to pimp their board.
>>19708
Is that why they had Spurdo and stuff in the banners? Don't get me wrong, maybe it didn't start off that way, but he certainly embraced the /intl/ crowd. I know I stayed away from it for that reason, and I doubt I was alone in that regard.
No.19718

I stayed away from /vvv/ because they made it clear they had no problem with off-topic /b/ garbage on a video game discussion board. It was just another /bwithvideogames/ like /v/.
No.19720
Anons will always expect /v/ to be a global board. It's why anons go there. As 8chan grows smaller user boards can grow, and having a global /v/ is useful for that.

I really don't like this idea. Feel like it undermines the entire point of 8ch. What are you going to do if Mark somehow got this "promotion" and then continues to moderate /v/ just as poorly as before, because it turns out Fredrick holds similar views? Then Fredrick's function with the site will be tainted for no real gain. No, Fredrick's responsibilities are best just relegated to making sure the site works and dealing with CP and DMCA shit.

It does. Globalizing a board should be a punishment and not a reward. When your board's popular and run by total retards like /pol/ used to be, then globalize it.

Threads like Japan Vs West region wars which are blatant shitposting and is allowed. All because the BO has a bias for Japan.

I know they are hashed, but even depending on how it was applied, salt, etc, you can find it back.
Since you know the format of it, you can then bruteforce and eventually the hashing function/salt. And since the code is open there you partially know how it was applied.
That said, it's from how I understood how it's supposed to work from what I was told. I didn't bother checking the code.
But the basic hash reversal can be done with some time, and since the search space is "limited", it won't take "that" much time.
