Don't forget the BvS spam.

It sucks that 4chan became so mainstream at around the same time shilling is hitting it's peak.

I'm starting to think more and more that we should've supported Gamergate more. That was the main movement against fraudulent "reviews" being sold and posted online. Just like OWS, it got taken down by a few implications of racism and misogyny until half the internet was crying that they were a victim of the evil disgusting Gamergators and nobody wanted to take part any more.

Now we get this. I'd love to see an unapologetic harrassment campaign against these shills, just slamming them for selling their public opinions like whores. They know that what they're doing is unjustifiable and unethical, they should have their faces rubbed in their shit like a dog that shat on the kitchen floor.

they made me realize that sometimes critics and rotten tomatoes make unfair ratings, they also taught me the joys of watching films on the big screen so they are not that bad

What's your problem with Gamergate?
>>
>>70889332
Retards overblowing irrelevant non-issue
>>
>>70890912
Video gaming is a bigger industry than film. A widely publicised review of a game can influence the movement of tens of millions of dollars. It can make or break entire video games companies, thousands of people's careers can hang in the balance when a popular online gaming site reviews a game.

Blatant and unapologetic corruption in this field is not a non-issue for people who's livelihoods are at stake, or for gamers who want unbiased advice on which $60 game to buy. Or for people who see a wider issue here and are concerned that this corruption, if tolerated, might lead to widespread covert advertisement in forums like 4chan's /tv/ board.

But those complaining about it have to shut up because a female games reviewer got some nasty tweets, right? Who cares about impartiality in reviews that affect the $91 billion video games industry when a woman's feelings have been hurt?

You're either a scumbag liar trying to deflect criticism of your shilling, or a complete moron who believes whatever bullshit is shoved down your throat.

Has anyone else noticed the mountain of pedo and black dick shills on this board? They fucking flood topics and claim that those shitty, bottom of the barrel fetishes are good
>>
Gamergate had a good premise - people with an agenda and/or personal gain, potentially from pushing said agenda - are shitting up people's interests. The response went in the wrong direction in a lot of ways - honestly if as much effort went into organising alternatives to the existing monolith then maybe it would have succeeded.
Unfortunately right wing nutters got involved and caused the movement to blow up from within. Thanks /pol/ for fucking up another force for change.
>>
>>70892351
The pedo stuff has been here forever. The rest of us always just ignored it because it acted as a barrier to the board becoming popular and shite. People take one look and run, which in the past meant we could chill in relative peace.

Then Gamergate and The Fappening happened, and that brought hordes of newfags in and also got the attention of SJWs who feel the need to police the internet. When they discovered they couldn't censor or tone-police the site they got frustrated and resorted to shitposting and whining, at least on /pol/.

The black dick stuff is either black guys triggered by the racist banter they've seen on here (and the occasional unironic /pol/ crossposter), or SJWs trying to ruin the fun of those nasty shitlords who won't comply with PC regulations.

I'd say the former, since all the black guys I've seen trying to defend themselves against racism on here immediately go to a variation of the "MUH DICK" argument, whereas most SJWs probably wouldn't have the stomach for spamming porn.
>>
>>70892523
I'd argue that 90% of the black dick posting is from people who either A. are into interracial porn or B. don't care or maybe don't like it at all - but both A and B are amused by shitposting and the response they get. It's an easy trigger.
>>
>>70892523
I sometimes spam blacked threads and I do it to get more moderation.
>>
>>70892390
There's always the possibility that the movement was deliberately sabotaged by that kind of posting. There are examples of people being caught false-flagging Gamergate as misogynists.

One way to make your opposition lose sympathy is to infiltrate it (not hard on 4chan), and then start blaming the Jews for everything with a straight face. You can then point to your own shit and claim it represents the entire movement you want to discredit. Every single criticism can now be met with "but you're an anti-semite/misogynist!" It's a tactic as old as time.

I'm not saying legit racists and misogynists didn't get involved too, but it wasn't the core principle of the movement by any stretch of the imagination.

You're absolutely right about an alternative being a better way to go. When Gamergate discussion was censored on 4chan (rightly or wrongly), 4*4chan was established for Gamergate discussion. It's now a pretty huge board.

If someone had made a Gamergate-inspired site for games reviews with a focus on impartiality, it probably could've made some serious traffic, and threatened the bullshit artists at the same time.
>>
>>70892689
If this is true then you're probably the stupidest person on /tv/.

That would be like smashing windows to get the attention of a glazier.
>>
>>70888821
Its not shilling if its DC. Didnt you know that?
>>
There are no shills
These are full blown real plebs that you accept because you need a flavor of the month meme to take back to your facebook page
>>
>>70892768
It worked with the waifu spam in 2013
>>
>>70892852
I don't even know what DC is. I guess from the context you don't mean direct current.

Regardless, if you're paid to promote something while posing as an impartial user of a forum, you're a shill, and the most worthless scum on the internet.

If you make threads despite relevant, appropriate threads already existing then you're a threadshitter, contributing to the ruin of the forum. Better than a shill but still a cunt.
>>
>>70892908
"Blacked" threads are already against the rules you fucking moron. Spamming them won't make them more banned than they already are.

Mods were ignoring waifu threads before they became spam and had to be universally banned. Mods aren't ignoring shit that's already against the rules, as though a few interracial porn threads on /tv/ is okay but spamming them will leave them no choice but to delete them.

Holy shit. I hope you're trolling right now.

if i liked those movies for what they are , one a vidya fantasi movie and the other is a comicbook movie, and they both for kids
that means im a shill?

I never said there weren't floods like that. It happens. Things usually return to normal once the mods wake up.

>newfriend
I remember Glaufags and Davey showing up in Zooey threads and all that shit. I remember green oval threads and all the tripfags in those. All those threads would hit 200+ replies.

Some autist flooded the board? Is that why there's a zero tolerance policy on that shit now? I'm not new but I spent some time away. Seems like the problem is the cunt thinking he can hold the board to ransom rather than the occasional Zooey thread.

But my point stands, spamming Blacked shit isn't going to make the mods start banning Blacked shit. It's already as banned as it will ever be, there already is a zero tolerance policy on that shit, as with all porn.

This is how it went
>he started doing that
>actress threads no matter what kind started getting deleted
>spam would stop
>mod started going easy and letting people have actress threads

It went on for about 2 months like this until they decided to just not let actress at all

It's not just blacked shit, what I want is more moderation to drive away the /v/, /sp/, /int/, /pol/ memebabies

Has anyone else noticed the mountain of Marvel shills on this board? They fucking flood topics and claim that those shitty, bottom of the barrel movies were good, even though about a year ago you'd be considered literally retarded for liking those movies

I think it's cause the average anons on /tv/ are actually migrants from the other boards. People who go on /v/, /pol/, and /b/ are fucking plebs who are excited about video game movies and capeshit

Paid marketers aren't anything new. Like every time one of those shitty horror movies with paid reviews is near release, suddenly there's like the same threads being spammed here over and over even though barely anyone posts in them.

That said, for capeshit and vidya trash, you have enough /v/ermin and the what not to fill up the board with it since they don't watch anything else anyways.

/tv/ is like the most accessible of memes since everybody indulges in the stuff. That's why you have people quoting movie and TV shit since forever. How do you not get that? That's why weird video game memers don't take off because usually only the queers that partake in such hobbies will ever want to touch that shit.
