>board about video games
>seems to hate discussion about games, inability to respect taste, and hates to be labeled a gamer, constantly contrarian
Just burn this board to the ground already it's useless.

>hates to be labeled a gamer
Look at the people who usually label themselves as a "gamer". I don't want to be associated with those people as well. So although I am technically a "gamer", I dislike most things "gamers" remind me of.

Next you'll tell me you shouldn't be considered a person because you hate people.

So GBA is 15 years old now, and I make a thread on /vr/ asking if it's Retro yet, hoping to start a discussion on when a system should be considered Retro, and the thread gets deleted and I receive a warning.
That's kinda dumb, and I don't think threads discussing the rules of a board should be deleted like that.
>>474416
That's why they keep this board around.

So people can bring up issues mods will never care about?

Should complaining about pepe be grounds for a ban? It's an equivalent to complaining about anime.
Ban all non-frogposters, imo.

I don't believe in the phrase "so bad it's good."
If you think it's good, you think it's good. Simple as that. Have more confidence about your opinions.
>>474271
I think the phrase was meant to describe 70s and 80s movie of a certain quality. In that context I think it's completely valid and accurate descriptor.
>>474284
Possibly, but those days are gone and gone with them are the people who had any right to use it.
>>474271
It describes a work that has all the hallmarks of being bad (for example: unexplainable anatomical mistakes, failure of perspective, inability to draw a smooth line, basically anything that you might consider derpy) and yet combines so many of these mistakes that it achieves a sort of unique attractive value.
In the interests of both transparency and lulz, would Hiro or mods be willing to share some of the DMCA takedown requests that 4chan has received from various lawyers over the years? Maybe they could post pics or links to .pdfs? Other longtime infamous sites even older than 4chan like rotten.com have done the same for years.
What do you think /qa/? What could possibly go wrong? Discuss.

shamelessly bumping for answers

>In the interests of both transparency
Neither Poole nor Hiroyuki have ever cared about transparency, in fact they have taken measures to obfuscate anything involving the sites they worked on. Why do you think anything would change now?
>>474405
I just thought it might be nice. Call it a token gesture on transparency on their part if you want. I honestly thought it would be more just amusing than anything else to see the kinds of things the lawyers were coming after.
Honest question: Can you think of a reason why we, the userbase, shouldn't know such things? I really can't, but I'm not claiming to be the sharpest knife in the drawer either.
