Me and the other posters.
>>46095920
The best: Wip threads, Armour threads, nerding out about lore and trivia.
The worst: Spergs who start threads with rhetorical arguments and loaded statements, the absolutely cringeworthy "worst girl" threads and quests.
I throw up a little in my mouth every time someone starts a thread with "Have you noticed/Why is it that..." about something super, super specific that only they experienced, but act like it's something universal.

>Worst
Tie between smut bullshit and all the paranoia about social justice warriors.
>the best
Gets shit done. Can reasonably discuss and talk about nearly anything, making it feel like a /b/ done right (yes I know that's hard to imagine)
>the worst
threads derailed and people get too generally butthurt over a single troll post in thread. Yeah that's the point but I honestly feel like the board is mature enough to not bite, so I get extra disappointed when it does and an otherwise good thread goes to shit.
Also people who complain about quests constantly, probably because they navigate by pages instead of the catalog (but that's just an assumption, I catalog and never had issue with quests).
>the warhammer
Should probably be its own board at this point. It's cool but when you have 3 generals at any given time PLUS dozens of random threads, it's time to move up. Even in catalog it sometimes just feels spammy
>the best
I like the homebrews that come out of here. Sure, sometimes they're a bit lacking and require some on-the-fly fixing, but they're charming and unique, which I really like.
>and worst
I don't like that page 0 browsing isn't really a thing on /tg/ anymore if you don't like quests, the various generals, and CYOA. It's actually rather sad always having to go straight to the catalog.
Oh, and /tg/ seriously can't into Magic despite being under the delusion it can. I miss AASK, he could into Magic.
Another thing about using the catalog to find threads, it's always awkward finding a thread you want to post in and then writing out a whole post only to realize that nothing has happened in that thread for an hour or two.
Best: PDF share thread.
Worst: Everything else. Especially any discussion involving women in any way.

> The Best
/tg/ can be a very imaginative and clever place, not to mention productive when it finds a common purpose in creating a system, a setting, or a story.
> The Worst
For every brilliant mind and willing participant, /tg/ attracts just as many hateful bigots, trolls, and just plane defective human beings willing to ruin anything they come across. The ones who throw around "muh autism", derail quest threads, ruin promising settings, and generally just behave like antagonizing shits, contributing the worst of web culture and themselves to our community.
By far and wide.
The shitty "non-related picture+shit line of greentext"/"TELL ME ABOUT UR Y WHEN X" which are basically /b/ tier discussions.
And the constant influx of horny kids that cannot keep it in their pants. It's nice to discuss something without you whipping out your 4'' and jerking off about "muh epic waifuuuuu xdddd" and "i le waifu le dragoooonnnn le bard saixxxsss XDDD"

Meta-threads.
>>46097568
The worst way to start a thread is
>What is the most X Y and why is it Z?
They don't want your opinion on which Y is X, they don't care about Y at all, they want you to talk about Z. But you don't care about Z. You were all ready to discuss N half-way through the sentence when you reached the loaded part. Now you just want to burn the entire board down to the ground. But it's on the internet so instead you just go look at character art and try to forget how autistic this is all making you.It doesn't work.It never works.

>>46095920
/tg/ was literally the first board I came to, sometimes around 2008, when i was going through a 40k phase in my teens. I've been browsing it intermittently since, and I've definitely noticed a few things.
It was too nice, for one, and let a lot of retards in. Oddly, most of them seemed to have ebbed away onto other boards these days, but there's still a lot of (bad) autism.
Secondly, the board is fucking inundated with quests and other worthless generals. I'm perfectly fine with the CYOA general, but what the fuck is up with the jumpchain and princess shit? They aren't even particularly good, I seriously can't even fathom why people would discuss them for this fucking long.
tl;dr we need a fucking quest and (image)board games board. The tumors on their board are mostly benign now, even if they have taken up half the space, but that's the only way to get rid of them.

It's just a fucking website dude. I know reddit is shit but I can't imagine getting so upset about reddittors coming here that you had track down posts, save them, and then dump them on a Babylonian pictogram board.
>>46100860
This is a lie perpetuated by 40k players to feel special and to justify spamming retarded threads.
There's no proof of this claim. None.
/tg/ was made for far more than 40k, which is why it's not called /40k/. To even try and argue otherwise would demand some measure of proof, and there isn't any to back the claim that Moot was even aware of Warhammer Wednesdays. Hell, he likely would have made a furry containment board long before he even realized that there were a few people who made a couple of threads that would get swallowed up within /b/.
So, please, if you plan on perpetuating the lie of "/tg/ was created for warhammer", provide some proof. Any proof.
Since you can't, shut up.
>>46111653
This. So incredibly this.
>>46111990
Tracking them was actually pretty easy, I just had to search "tg" on the subreddit and I got those posts.

The times that /tg/ get into detail on the merits and flaws of any given game. It feels like it's more uncommon now than a few years ago that we have really good discussions about this, bt it does still happen.
>the worst
All the lewdness and quest threads. As much as I love talking about games on /tg/, these two things are what makes me seriously consider stop visiting /tg/ all together. It simply isn't relevant and constributes nothing to the board. Yeah, it sucked when we had that one Risk or dubs get thread that actually turned out to be great and it got deleted due to breaking the rules, but you know, when we have them all the fucking time they don't come close to being as good and what little value they might hold on their own also gets dillutet quicky.

When will you faggots understand that /pol/ is (intended to be) the board for political discussion? Just because it's full of stormfags doesn't change it's original purpose.
>>46112616
You are so wrong it's amazing.
Your blind hatred has warped your mind so much, that you are literally trying to blame anime for everything you hate.
There is no hope for you, and the only hope left for anyone is that you never fail to express just how much you hate anime, so everyone can see just how ridiculous you and people like you are.
>>46112717
not him but anime is pretty bad dude
they've been making that shit since like 1958 and there's like 4 good animes total
>>46112706
It's not just full of Stormfags, but filled with SJW's, moderates, trolls, and the rare person genuinely interested in making fun of politics.
SJWs tend to react to /pol/ as if it were a Nazi board because they need to create some sort of enemy, and they don't realize that /pol/ is just a place where anyone is allowed to say anything, rather than being forced to be a liberal hugbox like reddit, tumblr, and facebook. From their perspective, the wide spectrum of opinion only looks like nazism.

Their rabid fanbase is complete cancer, as you have nicely demonstrated by sperging out how my "impossible" hatred for animes makes me a shit person.
>>46112717
It's not anime in itself that is bad. There are quite a few I do like. The problem is the people who like it too much. The people who use Japanese terms to refer to others and to characters in media. The people who want to do weeb shit in their games or who bring it up in any discussion no matter how irrelevant it is. Granted, this is not new on /tg/. It's been there the whole time. Does not make it any less stupid though.
>>46112790

Call it what you want, but /pol/ is a hugbox with or without downvotes.
>>46112813
Once again, you are simply wrong and stupid.
Yes, you are a shit person, because you are trying to draw a connection between "bad people I don't like" and anime.
There's no correlation, outside of "bad" people might like "bad" anime. Those "bad" people also probably have poor taste in everything else, from books to movies to games to whatever. What you are trying to do, without even realizing it thanks to your hatred, is to condemn a fanbase based on its worst part, while ignoring all the other fanbases that contribute their own share of terrible people.
Your bizarre hatred has left you with a skewed perception that makes you spew out lies and conjecture while thinking you are performing some meritorious service. There are bad fans in every fandom, and trying to claim that it's anime fans who are exclusively responsible for all the faults of this board isn't simply hyperbole, it's downright moronic.
>>46112877
I can agree with you on that. But its current state still doesn't change the fact that it was and is not meant to be a containment board.
>>46112829
You know, anime is the onky medium that garners this response. If someone would say that they hate Hollywood films and that there's only four or so of them that they like no one would argue that there's more good Hollywood films than that. Everyone would understand what the person meant and they were likely using hyperbole as rethorical tool.
>>46112877
Please, actually visit /pol/ and see what it's like.
People argue on every side of every discussion.
>>46112921
You've got an extremely warped perception if you actually believe that, but once again you're probably just hoping to excuse your stupidity with hyperbole.
>>46112991
No, I'm not even that person. I don't particularly like Holywood films or anime though, and when I state the former the response isn't even close to the one that I get when I state the latter.

Yes, I can. I shouldn't have to, because this is a weeb site and everyone is expected to be a weeb, but to make you realize how stupid you are, I'm going to help separate your desperate myth from reality.
>most tripfags love posting weeb shit
Hardly true, and even moreso it has nothing to do with being a weeb
>smutfaggotry, magical realm and fetish stuff have a shitload of manga and hentai stuff posted
And a lot of western stuff too.
>Taufags is an obvious one
As a joke, maybe, but hardly as an actual argument.
Look, you're trying hard, but the problem isn't with anime or weebs, the problems is with idiots, idiots much like yourself. Trying to say "I'm better than THOSE idiots because I don't watch anime" is just you trying to create an artificial distinction that fails to look at the root of the issue, and that issue certainly isn't anime.

I wouldn't call it a hugbox, more of the opposite actually. It's a shoutbox where any dissenting opinion is immediately crushed not with well-reasoned argument but accusations of leftism, liberalism, being a woman, being homosexual, being another race or any manner of excuse. Intelligent discourse is astoundingly rare, it's just fags calling other fags stupid and whatever group can amass the largest number of screaming pissbabies wins and proclaims themselves to be in the right.

That was my first response in the entire thread, you dingdong. You're clearly a bit too sensitive to handle an anonymous board where people can think what they like and say it.
>>46113227
That's actually not the case. That's really only something someone who's never actually taken a look inside of /pol/ would try and come up with.
Yes, there's shouting and rampant stupidity, but no one is ever proclaimed "right." There are idiots on both sides of every argument, and the argument is eternal. You might be upset about how it doesn't cater exclusively to a liberal point of view, but it's hardly conservative dominant and certainly not fascist except when balanced by liberal extremism. It's a melting pot of opinions, and possibly one of the few places left on the internet where people can really say just about anything they want, for better and worse.

First of all, it's not 2006 anymore and 4chan is not some secret anime club anymore. It hasn't been for a long time.
Tripfags do tend to post anime related shit. I don't mean like weeb reaction pictures (except if they derail the thread into arguing about the specific anime) and that makes you a weeb.
Go open some smutfaggotry threads, at least 80% of pictures or fantasies will be weeb stuff. For fucks sake, once the smutfaggotry threads were banned here they all moved to /d/. It doesn't get more weeb than that.
I'm not even gonna argue about Tau in this thread.
>Look, you're trying hard etc.
Why are you so butthurt that I don't like anime? You are even deluded that it's only me arguing with you, even though it's obvious that more than 3 people participated in this argument.
Again, I don't give a fuck about anime, but weebs piss me off. You piss me off because you have to sperg at me because I don't like the same shit as you. Go discuss anime on /a/ or keep the discussion to eastern /tg/ stuff and I won't go there to tell you I'm better than you, because I don't think that of people who watch anime and act normally about it.
And for fucks sake, you aren't even attacking my legit complaints about the cancer I hate on /tg/, but my hyperbole how it's all the fault of weebs.

You're free to dislike anime, even though it kind of makes you the kind of moron who would say something along the lines of "I don't like music" or "I don't like movies."
What you're not free to do is to go about trying to hatemonger unchallenged, especially when you do so by trying to paint the world through your warped perspective.
4chan is an anime site. Even on /co/ they end up discussing anime, because believe it or not, it really isn't 1941 anymore and people actually have access to anime and there's a lot of great anime series. To try and cry about weaboos on 4chan is basically admitting that you don't belong here, and that you are still stuck in the trap of hating something you don't understand and hoping to convince other people that they should only bother understanding it on the level that you do.
Your "legit" complaints are hardly that, and overall are just you bitching and hoping that you can somehow tie in anime with what other people might not like about this board.
It's not that you don't like the same shit as I do. It's that you are making illogical leaps, incorrectly identifying the source of your woes, and reinforcing your warped perspective. You either need to open your eyes and realize that you're deluding yourself into thinking that "weebs" are even an issue on this site, or you need to simply go elsewhere to someplace where people are still stupid enough to try and find a fault with anime as a whole.

that's fair, I dunno, I visit the blood bowl general myself, and look at the historical wargames general - they seem pretty useful IMO. other than that I prettymuch just lurk. It's nice to just see discussions happening, especially when you bump into something that's actually awesome.
The thing I hate most about /tg/ though, right now at least, is the /pol/ vs. SJW and obvious bait threads. EG "can all-female RPG groups ACTUALLY work?". Fuck that shit, I want to talk about games, not whether or not chicks can do stuff together.

calm down jesus
anime isn't a medium the same way music or movies are. it's more akin to saying "i don't like swedish music" or "i don't like french movies". although french movies are different, there's still a whole lot of cultural features that permeate the whole medium.
same with anime. a very large portion of anime suffers from the same exact issues (lack of subtlety, pandering to autists, overexplanation, flashbacks, pandering to dumb people at the expense of storytelling, slow pace, characters constantly gasping at nothing, pandering to people who like anime boobs) so i feel that it's perfectly okay to say that you don't like anime as a whole, even if a singular anime can be good

Welcome to Sturgeon's Law.
Also, the issues that you described are rather obtuse, generic, or even downright inapplicable or contradictory, and are hardly symptoms of anime and more of just symptoms of bad storytelling.
Please, don't try to draw conclusions based on the evidently limited experience you have. Maybe you should actually hustle as hard as you hate, and watch some good series and learn to appreciate that you were blinded by your hatred and tried to narrowly define a rather broad medium.
Anime does have certain trends of issues, including the rampant problems within the Type-B distinction, but they're hardly the vague, "I'm just trying to hate without knowing what I'm talking about" issues that you conjured up.

Hardly. There's certainly more than two anime studios, and when you look at all the different styles and intended audiences, it's really saying something along the lines of "Western animation" or even simply "animation", once you realize just how much western and eastern animation ends up cross-blending. Hell, most of the more popular recent "Western" animations were actually made in collaboration with Eastern studios.
You're trying to argue with blinders on. You'd be surprised about how broad something might be once you allow your vision to expand outside your narrow preconceptions.
>4chan has countless threads which are completely unrelated to animes and that's why I visit it.
It doesn't have a single board that's unrelated to anime though. Not one.
>Derailing those threads with weeb shit is what pisses me off.
Which is funny, because you seem to think that anime isn't the natural state of this and every board. You can't derail into weeb stuff, since it's all weeb stuff to begin with. You can't talk about Batman without "fear" of someone bringing up the Batmanga, you can't talk about D&D without "fear" of a passing reference to Record of Lodoss War, and you can't even discuss how much you hate anime without the "fear" of someone telling you that you are an utter moron.

The difference? Stormfags tend to have that limited amount of sense required to keep their political opinions in /pol/.

Disliking anime is the same as disliking the stuff on Cartoon Network and Disney Channel.

>It doesn't have a single board that's unrelated to anime though. Not one.
It's only related because you fucks have to inject it into all of them by way of forced association. By the same way every board is /v/ or /pol/ related because you can do enough mental gymnastics to stuff them into any given thread. You are also implying that just because something in weebshit is vaguely related to a thread, that makes the thread somehow anime related. Which is not true.

Hardly. You might as well be saying that all Western animation is Cartoon Network and Disney Channel, and that makes you an idiot. Even then, you're really failing to see how there's less of a stigma against Adult-oriented animation in the East that makes it considerably broader than what can be found in the West.
I'm sorry, but the more you talk, the more it's clear that you really just don't know a lick about the thing you hate, and are hating it out of ignorance and lack of exposure.

Not at all. They're related because, wait for it, anime isn't just big tits and screaming while your hair glows.
>And also, you also can't make a thread without the "fear" of shitposting, baiting and uninformed opinions, but that doesn't make it ok.
It's funny, because you are still trying to blame anime for shitposting in general. You're right that some people shitpost about anime, and no one's stupid enough to try and argue against that. But people shitpost about everything, and it's hardly that anime is the predominant shitposting topic.
You've got two seperate problems. You don't like shitposting, and I can agree with that. But, you also hate anime, and you want to try and blame shitposting on anime.

Not him, but I get pretty sick of both. I'm not into wargames to begin with, and when half of the board is just 40k meme threads and/or quest threads it gets pretty aggravating. Not to mention the artstyle for both is atrocious.
Best: Just about everything really. Every discussion can be interesting, every discussion can be nice, every discussion has it's merits. It's really fun watching any thread pop up (Even if it's feitshy, trolly, off topic) and watching people discuss it seriously and getting good, realistic responses from it.
Worst: Anti-X. "This doesn't belong here", "X go home", "Use a different board fag", etc. I don't particularly care if they even have a point, your opinions are opinions. Report and move on, that's all you should be doing if you are of the opinion things should be gone. This sort of behavior doesn't help /tg/, discussions or anything about the environment. Finger pointing, " policing" and spreading falsehoods is the worst thing.

But once again, with

Oh, so men, women, boys and girls between the ages of 3-70? Very narrow. There's kodomo, shonen, shoujou, jousei, seinen, and those five basically hit all the major demographics.
I understand that you're retarded, but really, you can't try to fit anime into a tiny little box without the majority spilling out of it. For every childish anime, there's a Jin-roh. For every action packed adult film, there's a Only Yesterday. For every pastoral drama, there's a Panty and Stocking. For every lewd comedy, there's a Gankutsuo. For every reimagining of a french novel, there's a Gyagyu Manga Biyori.
>all you do is ignore half of my arguments, ]
Yes, because you are retarded, and you are trying to say weebs are anywhere near a problem as little bitches like yourself. Idiots are the issue, whether they like anime or not, and you are an idiot.
>because obviously nobody dislikes anime.
The only people who do are the people who think along your lines of welcoming ignorance and dismissing any chance for exploration. You barely know anything about Anime, to the point where you said something as stupid as saying it caters to a narrow and really specific type of demographic.
There are, without any doubt, at least a hundred anime series or movies that you would undoubtedly love, and they're not even that hard to find. All you have to do is stop being a little whiny bitch, abandon your irrational hatred built up around ignorance and self-delusion, and stop pretending you know so much about a topic that you are barely even a novice in.
The reason why I'm calling you a moron and an idiot is because there' s no other way to describe someone like you who relishes their ignorance as much as you do.

Please, tell me more about how much it has affected videogames.
Exactly what has changed? The fact that the Divinity:OS art now doesn't have an exposed midriff? Meanwhile we got shit like Quiet running around and no fucks are given by the people who actually play games.
The effect SJWs have is VERY limited and in reality, nobody gives a fuck. The only ones that do are the ones that care only about their "gamer cred" and act like they are hardcore and niche for liking Zelda.
Also, one of the more SJW game websites is about to go under now that the Hulk fucked Gawker.

You are willing to understand that not all discussion is good, but you've made the mental misstep of trying to redefine a set of discussion you dislike as anti-discussion, rather than accepting that not all discussion is great.
It's similar to how anti-racism/reverse-racism really is just racism.
The best step now is to reconsider your bizarre idea that people should be putting effort into trying to derail shitty threads into good ones (while good threads are ignored) with a laughably bad success record, rather than putting effort into actually discussing the topics that the board is dedicated to. All you really end up doing is feeding trolls by giving them attention with your "EPIC DERAIL XD" attempts, and that makes you almost as bad as the trolls and spammers themselves.

>How often do you see a "Let's talk about how normal transgenders are" thread on /tg/?
Um. Never?
The fuck are you talking about?
>>46114421
I'm on here a lot, because I work in IT and get a lot of my day to myself with an unmonitored internet connection.
I've never seen a thread about how normal transwhatevers are. I did see a lot of the shit when trans stuff was mentioned in D&D 5e (I think) and it gets brought up when tangentially relevant sometimes in other threads. Also lots of lewdposts are from futa fans who think everyone should be covered in dickvaginas and vaginadicks.
In short: no.

Not that guy, but we had a /lgbt/ thread just the other day. They certainly get spammed here more often than any conservative topic threads, like fiscal responsibility.

Don't hold your god damn breath about the radio play, but I am a voice actor and I damn well intend to do it.
I just won't have the time free until like fucking halfway through the year, my mic didn't survive moving house so I need to get insurance claim on it and buy a new one, than I have to set my room up into a sound recording studio and get it cleared with shoggy (because I don't want to tread on any toes or piss him off) and I intend to have the whole damn thing finished in audiobook format by the end of the year.

The shilling is real to a certain extent. I've personally met and gamed with a mid-level GW employee who came here to defend the company and attack anyone who disagrees.
On the other hand, calling them out on it is counter-productive and spawned a lot of lazy counter-shitposting that makes a lot of threads devolve into idiocy. It set a precedent for calling people out and feeding them rather than ignoring them.
>>46113021
I'm with you, but I think super hero shit is equal to anime in the response you'd get for expressing a general dislike of it. I dislike all of it, but I am willing to admit that there are diamonds in the rough. Super and animu fans, however, will take any negative opinion as a challenge to convert you to their adoration.
>>46112033
>With my research I have concluded that these two massively popular websites do indeed have at least a few people that cross over
Well done detective!
>>46115476
Super hero comics would be like the equivalent of Shonen Jump comics, a very small demographic within a much broader medium.
Try going into a comic shop, and rather than saying you don't like Marvel or DC, instead simply shout "I HATE COMICS." Tell me what kind of reaction you'd expect.
Likely, after checking to see if you were sane, they would recommend some titles to show you that your preconceived notions about comics as a whole were moronic. And, they would be right, and you would be an idiot for your presumptions.
The issue isn't that it's about a matter of taste, it's about you making the mistake of hating something because of incorrect ideas that you keep self-perpetuating, and then spewing out as if you genuinely believed them to be facts.

>massively popular
>4chin
4chan is influential but not a lot of people browse this site directly. In his last days of owning the website Moot admitted that he was running the site at a net minus in cash, too.
>>46114421
I've seen Around Blacks Never Relax threads all the time. Never seen the latter once in the 5 years I've used /tg/.
>>46115759
I actually have favourite anime directors and comic artists. Just because you love something in general doesn't mean I can't hate something in general. I like specific instances. I also like sports, but I don't go around trying to convert neckbeards who hate it by suggesting they haven't found the right one and need to educate themselves in order to forge a path to liking what I like.
>>46115778
You know, no one is gonna tell you exactly how much they earn of anything. No business is gonna tell you that it's going great for them. Doing so only invites mooshers.
Now, I'm not saying Moot ran a profit off of running 4chan, but his word isn't the most reliable one when it comes to how profitable the site was.
>>46115778

It's fucking giant. /v/ alone is one of the biggest video game forums.

>/v/
It's mostly agreed that /v/ is a redditor board. For smaller boards like /tg/ that statement is contestable.
My point: Big boards might not be secret clubs, but smaller ones are.
>>46115852
What kind of weird lie is this.
You know there's an automatic archive, right? Holds all them posts from the last few years, and a quick search is all it takes to prove you wrong, right?
Are you from tumblr? Is that why you tried such a bold-faced lie? Because you don't know how this site works?
>>46116046
>Not having personally seen any examples of the latter = lies
It's anecdotal you sperg. Believe it or not for all I care, but I've not once seen a thread about the normality of transgender. Unless you're being some sort of faggot that is interpreting 'A Wizard has turned you into a lol - what do?' as some secret agenda to normalize transgenders.
>>46116021
>Redditors only post on /v/
You're so in denial. Niche interests are even more likely to have cross over due to their specific nature and /tg/ is way more active than its reddit equivalent. Why does it bother you? Does it genuinely upset you to know you're not a special snowflake part of a super sekrit underground club?
>>46115954
>Just because you love something in general doesn't mean I can't hate something in general.
When you hate something too broad, and for all the wrong reasons, it makes you look ridiculous.
Hate Twilight because it's poorly written? Okay.
Hate all vampire novels because you don't like vampires because you read Twilight? A little less understandable because there's a few decent vampire novels, but fine, that's your taste, and there's a lot of bad vampire novels.
Hate all fantasy novels because you don't like vampires because you read Twlight? Now, you're just being silly.
You can hate anime, but to try and do so because of misconceptions built around limited exposure is wrong, especially if that hate manifests itself as trying to proselytize people to a religion of ignorance.
It's the same kind of thing that generated the negative stigma around Science Fiction that made Sturgeon conceive his law. If people only base their opinions on the worst examples of something and hate it to the point of denying the best examples, they're doing themselves a disservice, and are committing a general sin to anyone they offer that opinion to.
