No, but pretending that you have some sort of superior taste because you watched FLCL is the typical /v/ermin thing to do.

Now, there's nothing wrong with liking serious anime, but even then there's no point in decrying fanservice or whatnot. Everyone likes some braindead stuff to go with their more serious interests, I'll watch Milky Holmes some days and Takarajima on another. Hell, some fantastic fucking series have been made under the guise of "inane" fanservice.

Only 15-year old kids think they have "superior taste" because they just watch "serious" anime. Truly good taste is accepting that you need some silliness to go with the seriousness, and that true depth is in variety, NOT Ergo Proxy.

The days were people lurked and every body shitted on the guy that was clearly a newfag. It was also where other boards were not infested with a shit load of newfags that would come to /a/ when a new hipster anime gory anime would air.
>>
Lurk moar has effectively disappeared and a lot of newfags thinking posting on /a/ like on some other boards is okay.

I also blame it on smartphones. I'm less inclined to believe well thought out posts comes from posters on smartphones. And no, I'm not blaming all smartphones users and there's also nothing wrong with smartphones. However when posts are beginning to read like shitty text bites, it starts to be a problem with proper discussion.

>>115775914
Look, if you've never played a VN, and have no interest in trying one, that's fine. No self-respecting anime fan hates on them unilaterally, only casuals do. Once you've seen enough anime, of course you'll find something you like that happens to be connected to a VN.

There's nothing in the world that's entirely, unilaterally bad, and your post shows that you really don't understand it. Are you willing to listen to listen to an argument against your point, or do you just want to shitpost against VNs?

Also, I don't think newfags from Naruto are that bad. They have a pretty decent count of either fucking off, or learning how to into /a/. Thankfully Naruto is ending, but I think SnK is probably worse, since it managed to sneak in, and will have a general for a long time.(Snkfags are new Narutofags)

I wonder where all the good posters in /a/ went. Infinitychan is too fresh with /v/ and I'm certain that's not where the good posters went.

People used to post in accordance to Global Rule 6. Do newfags nowadays even read the rules?

Also is it just me or the number of tripfags are increasing?

>>115774641
Anime is becoming mainstream for the first time really since 4chan was founded (blame Crunchyroll), starting with SAO and SnK bringing over faggots from /v/. It got worse with Space Dandy and the influx of /co/ which was already overrun by faggotry. /b/ recently brought a lot of attention to the site bringing even more normalfags.

With the influx of cancer, /a/ started spoonfeeding making the cycle worse. This was the last bastion of "LURK MORE" but even that seems to have stop being used.
>>
>>115776121
>The medium is objectively bad
If you honestly believe that, there's no debating with you. There's nothing in the world that's completely one way or the other, and if you think so that just means you're a fanatic with no room for dissenting opinions. There's no point in debating with someone who has their mind make up.

Do you acknowledge the possibility that you may be wrong, and the medium MIGHT not be objectively bad?

>n-no true animefanman
I'm just saying, your stance is one generally connected to people without much experience in anime. If you've really seen 1k anime, and still are this hard-line against VNs, then praise be to you.
>>
/a/ gets worse every time a big series popular with norma airs. Ever since 2010 there have been A LOT of them airing which has caused /a/'s quality to decline extremely quickly.
>>
>>115776351
Yes, because a daily Saber thread, and several other fate threads are so much different(P.S it averages at about 3-5 depending on the day). Naruto is ending, they'll stop posting threads after the movie.
>>
>>115776364
Only /v/fags and hipsterfags went to infinitychan. Newfags dont read the rules anymore because nobody tells them too. All of the shit poster on /a'/ come from other shitty boards where they lost their way a long time ago.

That actually kinda makes sense. Bad grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Then there's improperly quoting a post too. Smartphone ironically shitpost instead of quoting the real text since it's faster. All the shitposters tend to share the common signs of texts.

It's totally fine to do it on /b/ though, you shouldn't take shitposts (nor this shit site) seriously.

That doesn't mean everyone acts similar to that guy, of course.

Is it perhaps time to leave and let /a/ degrade even further with the loss of such obvious quality poster as you are? /a/ and imageboards in general are too turbulent, the model itself makes it extremely hard to keep it good once it has gained enough renoun so i doubt it can be salvaged.

And it occured to me, what does it even mean, good or bad?
What should /a/ be like for you to consider it good?

Just go to wizardchan or something where I can guarantee you will get less normalfaggotry and about 1000 times the autism.

The amount of normalfaggotry, rec threads, cancerous shit all around. I've seen at least 10 posts in the last DAY talking about how they just finished fucking Evangelion for the first time. I hope things eventually die down, because while this place has always been shit, it's been REALLY fucking bad in the last month or two, and the last week has been hell.

See, what do posts like these actually say? They disagree with me, but they're not defending /a/'s current quality, nor are they point out how it might still be good. They're just shitposting and throwing a bunch of personal insults around, as well as cancerous normalshit.

As I see it, there are crossboarders or /v/ residents or whatnot who want to come to /a/, but don't quite feel at home with the lurk moar mentality or the elitism. They don't like to think of themselves as shitposting, or don't think of it as a big deal. No one thinks of themselves as the bad guys, after all.

For them, imagining that /a/ has always been shit, and making it more shit is a good thing. They feel more at home, and don't feel guilty for being outcast or being the ONLY shitposter.

There's a reason the shitposters are ALL talking about how crap /a/ has always been, or how it doesn't matter. In the end flinging shit just makes them more comfortable.

>>115776606
That's exaggerating. It was bad in 2007 too. Unless you've forgotten the DESU spam and other annoying crap.

Man, I was looking through 2008-09 images of bans, and it made me sad. You used to be banned for being a shitposter, not encouraged to stay. A rec thread would get you a 3 day, and then you'd read the fucking rules and lurk. It's embarrassing that we don't have any mods anymore.

>>115777010
meta threads only happen when /a/ is becoming shit. When quality is low or when a huge amount of faggots come to /a/. Newfags need to read this thread and know what not to do.

Some may blame the mods, but you're right. The amount of self-moderation has diminshed to a halt.

There is nothing wrong with that.

Behaving like you are on /b/, complaining about threads you don't like or even worse, not even being able to use the fucking catalog is the actual problem, for all I care "you could get a life" just don't blog about that shit in here, it's not relevant.

Oh no 4chan is truly dead now for the billionth fucking time since its inception. Things were so mucj better back in [the year when I firstj oined this site]!
Every fucking meta thread since forever.
4chan didnt get worse, you simply grew disillusioned with the board/sites supposed quality and can finally see that it sucks.

Shouen threads use to be hated and people would tell them to fuck off and to only make them when the manga come out. Now they have a thread everyday and even fucking fairy tale has 400+ posts from time to time. I went to an snk thread the other day and it was full of tumblrfags.
>>
>>115777163
There's more to it than that
/a/'s hobbies aren't exactly normal or accepted by normals. You can be normal, and post, but in when in Rome, speak Latin, and don't be a moralfag or anything.

Plus normals tend to be more casual, and that's annoying.

>>115777244

You brought this upon yourselves. Don't go into an autism fit now. I know your kind is prone to bottling up hatred like Elliot rodgers

I'm not leaving either lol I find the rare 2-3 good series each season and just funpost in the other active series just like /jp/ does. You know them right?
>>
>>115777141
No, meta threads ARE the cancer. You want /a/ to be better? Then stop whining like a little bitch you are and start actually good anime-related conversation, or at least go report some rule-breaking faggets.
>>
>>115777069
Just two years ago you would get ban for saying you browse other boards. That is how we know you are a crossboarding newfag.
>>
I'll lurk on infinitechan for a week but I doubt I can actually move. And considering how new it is it's probably full of the same people that /a/ has to deal with
>>
>>115777351
Nice bait
>>
Just look at the 3x3 threads and you can see what people are on /a/ nowadays.
Pretty much ANN like taste, with huge anti moe sentiment and dark/gray thematic anime where having cute girls are considered a negative trait.
This is your future /a/, you did this yourself.

>>115777086
>Fate isn't cancer, fate has always been /a/. I don't even like it, but it certainly has a home here.
Like almost every single franchise, a thread's quality is better when there are less fans. Sure, Fate has been on /a/ for some time, but when many strangers latch on to the show and its threads, then it's understandable why some people are very annoyed.
>>
>>115777406
It's a hugbox about hating this shit site.
>>
>>115777406
This. I tried, but it's just too shitty. I'll never leave /a/, and I'll wait it out hoping it'll get better once all the newshits get bored and go somewhere else.
>>
>>115777406
It's worse, it is just /v/ pretending to be /a/.
>>
>>115777267
You are so obviously new it hurts. The problem isn't anime going mainstream, it's shitty posts like yours. You don't even try to form a normal sentence. This is what >>115775910 is talking about.

>>115777486

Kind of what I expected. It's too bad since their ideas in terms of moderation are actually pretty good.
>>
>>115777393
Are you retarded? Mods wont do shit to those fags anymore and you can only start good anime related conversations when a show airs. Talking about board quality is important. Mods would even read these and make a sticky about how to fix board quality. Now they dont do shit.

>>115777360
I know. Though I consider One Piece to be among my favorites, I can't endure the amount of shitposting in the threads. The problem is people feel the need to constantly have at least one thread up around the clock. Constant threads and generals leads nothing else than shipping, waifu and shitposting.
>>
>>115777548
I report almost every rule-breaking newshit post I see, and NOTHING happens. The mods fucking banned me a few weeks ago for posting an onahole box, but they don't ban someone saying they're still in high school. It's fucking sick.

Newfags need to learn that ironic shitposting is still shitposting and how to form proper sentences.

Culture is defined not by the archaic irrelevant past but the present

/pol/ has usurped anime as the 4chan zeitgeist for instance

You type like you're 14 years old. I didn't post an actual picture, it was a censored box from a website selling it.

>>115777510
Im pretty sure its just a crossboarders meta shitposting.
But then again it amuses me that someone would get so butthurt and respond to those posts. I dont blame them and you could've just ignored it.
>>
>>115777640
Not when retards overkill shit. 4chan cant do fun stuff like that anymore because it will only attract the worst kind of people. I rather have an elite board then a /v/ tier one.

Yeah, /tv/ is supposed to be Baneposting instead of doing actual discussion.

I don't even like the bait pictures. It either makes a legitimate thread worse or makes a funpost thread last longer.

That just shows the shits who post in 3x3 threads, not /a/ as a whole. I doubt I'm the only one who filters those threads.

I only do this with really popular stuff everybody should recognize on sight.

Yeah but we decided to exclude it from /a/ a while ago. Do you not remember? There was even a thread about it one time.

That's actually kind of sad. Posters make terrible posts thinking that it's okay and others misunderstand thinking it's a stupid troll. Then the terrible posts begin to outnumber quality ones.

Any community that gets its laughs by being idiots will eventually be flooded by people who pretend to be idiots who mistakenly believe that they're in good company.
>>
>>115778133
>>115777711
I wonder what it's like coming to an imageboard not to have fun, but to take everything seriously and form some sort of identity that you think you and everyone else has to conform to.

And these seriousness-mongers always seem to be new and trying desperately to fit in. They see a few elitist posts and assume that everyone is that anal.

I check the bans page pretty frequently and I honestly think there's only one mod focusing on reports from /a/. Bans are always few and far between and usually for NSFW stuff, but around 4-5 AM there's a mass banning of /a/ posts, most of which were posted hours ago, and then nothing else. It sucks because the moderation here used to be at least somewhat consistent through the day.
>>
>>115778410
>And these seriousness-mongers always seem to be new and trying desperately to fit in.
This. Everyone actually trying to push this agenda this hard are just people who have been here a few months to a year who are desperately trying to fit in.

The second anon I replied to obviously doesn't have fun, worrying about making sure his images never have filenames. And yes, elitism as in ignoring casual shit is obviously okay because it makes more fun by only acknowledging series that are actually worth a good discussion.
