Read this right here, caconiggers: http://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/44875784/#q44875784

You're both fucking casuals, probably crossboarders from /co/ or /a/. Lurk the fuck moar, and stop talking shit like you know anything about this board.
>>
>>45310020
I have to admit that I participated in the first few threads that created the Zarthas whatever the fuck shit and the few good screen caps that came from it.

What I will point out for anyone still posting those threads, it was only popular because we derailed the entire thing and made a mockery of the fact that one poster posted the same thread every day. They are as cancerous as the frodo fly the eagle to mordor threads and will never live up to those moments because those that made them fun moved on.
>>
>>45310233
You're really just as bad, because what you thought was EPIC DERAILING was really just stroking OP's ego by adding to his post count.

That, and the derailing was never actually any good. It's the sort of thing where anytime a group does something purely out of spite, they tend to congratulate themselves considerably more than they should.

The "if you see a troll thread, you should derail it" idea is a relic of the days when the post cap was set at 100 and the catalog system didn't exist. Now, reporting and ignoring them is really the only proper modus operandi.

Magefag detected. Cry harder. Your threads are the words kind of cringelord circlejerk. The only thing that could make them worse would be katana-teleport tier bullshit that infests most freeforms, but then the only reason you don't have that is because that wouldn't be "quirky" enough for your redditor-tier sensibilities. Die, die, and die.

I agree with you in general but how the fuck is magefag a buzzword.

Or to a lesser extent cry harder.

I meant the -fag suffix mostly. Cry harder might not technically be a buzzword, but it definitely falls under the umbrella of meme vocabulary.

Sorry chum, but no. And if you can't get past it, then you are the autists. Signifier-signified. That's all you need. Being picky about tone just means you don't have an argument.

Using memes instead of your brain is only allowed on /b/, /r9k/, and /s4s/. Everywhere else, global rule #6 is in effect.

If you don't want to be treated like a troll, you might want to tone it down. There's literally no reason to act like you are fresh from /b/ outside of /b/.

If you want to act like you are, just stay in /b/.
>>
>>45311537
>Guys, why I can't I play a Good necromancer?
Haven't seen one of those in a while, thank god.
>>
>>45309403
I hate these the most because it inevitably turns into a dick-measuring contest as both sides defend their precious precious IP and try to convince the other side that no our thing is stronger than your thing. The only fun thing to do with them anymore is to post One Punch Man to bring out the kneejerk anti-weebs and watch the 40kids squirm to counter someone with such vaguely-defined abilities.

>>45310816
I'm not fond of stat me threads either, but that's because OP rarely if ever offers any suggestions for system or a starting point. Just a picture and stat me. It's so lazy.

>>45309151
Speaking of fucking lazy, this. Filename threads are fine once in a while when people have had time to come up with actual clever names and trawl other boards or sites for good pictures. I wish there was a mandatory two week cooldown on any thread with filename in the subject or title.

CYOA. I honestly don't understand the point of CYOA threads.

I also don't know what point JumpChain has, but I'll admit I've spent no time trying to figure it out. The very mild lurking I've done (occasionally seeing it on page 0) tells me it's in the same vein as CYOA.
Quests. Don't really need to say more than that. At least the crapfest that was Magical Butler Quest or whatever it was called is long dead. Mahou Shonen? Something like that, I take the fact that I can't remember to be a positive thing.

Seriously, there is no reason this needs to stay on /tg/. They already have their own IRC, it's time to move to their own forum.

This annoys me. I write a lot for /tg/, and while I'm fine with and even a little honored to have so many of my stories get screencapped and reposted here, it's very different to see people take them and share them on Reddit for Upvotes.

I'm just glad that they don't pretend to be the writers themselves, because that would be a declaration of war.

I think /tg/ would be a lot better with some weekly threads instead of eternal. It would actually be really cool like if the mods could sticky a discussion of a certain game for the day, like world of darkness, shadowrun, etc...

Board game general, painting, funny images, complaints, stories, etc. Lots of things could be wrapped up into their weekly stickied megathread.

None because repeated thread are either troll thread or became one after some time.

>>45307214
Since almost everything I'd say has already been mentioned, I just want to say that I'm so glad the stupid "ALL X PARTY" threads have finally died, and I desperately hope the rest of the pseudo-quests follow them.
>>
>>45314035
I'm going to piggyback with similar sentiments.
That Disney Villains setting thing was finally put down, right? Or have they been popping up while I'm not looking? I hope they managed to put a stop to that, it was getting to Harem Knights levels.
Speaking of which, I'm glad they finally killed that, too. What a miserable thing.

The thinly veiled fetish threads.

They've always been there, but they've been showing up WAY more recently. Every fucking day, there's a goddamn "hey teejee let's talk about my fetish" and they don't even try to hide it. Christ.

Wait, to sidetrack here, I totally get what you're saying about setting threads that get driven into the ground, and my personal list is pretty much: >>45314500

But, I don't really get what the problem is with story-threads of any stripe, flavor of the month or otherwise (I honestly didn't find any of them except the All Sisters Party painful to read). I mean, if you start throwing those out, then what is actually left? Mechanics, MTG, What system to X (it's always GURPS), Generals, and nostalgia... That's /lit/ levels of content drought...

Waifufags are then bane of every thread's existence. They have killed everything from the Star Krakens to DVV to CATastrophe.
