can /vp/ have some mods?
shit like this is a common occurence
>>391847
No offence to anyone that posts on /vp/, but the delay between games being released just causes any discussion to dry up. You can only say so much about what the best pokemon is before it all gets a bit boring.
Also, /vp/'s filled with underage shits; not much you can do about that though.
>>391859
That is a massive issue with the board, I wouldn't mind if the board was opened up to other 'monster hunting/collecting' games as well. It would give the board some legs if other franchises were incorporated and the board was renamed /mon/
>>391847
Today the Pokemon anime discussion thread got totally overrun by frogposter spam, Pokegirl charts, longhairfaggotry, Corphish spam, "pika pika ne ne ne" reposts, YouTube link spam, ebin image macros, that one Amour number faggot derailing anime threads, and someone else who made a bunch of duplicate anime threads to flood the catalog. Janitors showed up like six hours later, deleted a few frogposts, then peaced out and left all the other shitposting up. And that's just one thread of many others on /vp/ that get shitposted to death.
/vp/ has no mods, it's such a fucking joke. When there's no mods, the whole board goes to absolute shit and shitposters proliferate, drowning out good posters. It's a vicious cycle that reinforces itself until the board itself is nothing but shitposters.
How about just deleting this useless board along with /mlp/ already? Allow MLP back on /co/ and Pokemonfags can go to /v/, /vg/ and /a/.
>>391913
/v/ is shit enough without flooding it with more autism
>>391913
Because then /v/, /vg/ and /a/ would bitch that Pokemonfags are hogging their catalogs. That's why /vp/ has existed.
>>391881
A major drawback is that you'd have almost constant flamewars between fans of the various "mon" franchises. Unless you provide a hypothetical /mon/ board with a lot of moderators, it'll be a disaster.
>>391847
It happened again just now. See pic related. Just look at this shit.
>>392360
Had some other anons help this time.
>>391904
>>392360
Shitposters made some porn and furry threads, Garyposters drowned them.
>>391847
Dumb /q/poster
>>392409
The fact that Garyspamming was needed in order to get rid of all the other shit just proves the fact that the lack of moderation is a major issue with the board.
>>391847
Starting off, /vp/ shouldn't be a board at all.
>>391915
>A major drawback is that you'd have almost constant flamewars between fans of the various "mon" franchises
Its a risk but it would be better than the dead husk that it is. The board needs something to sustain it during times like this
Hell you could add Monster Hunter, I can't really see many flamewars between the two series
>>391847
dancing banana is best pokeymans xDddd
peanut butter jelly time!
merry christmas /qa/
>>392620
There's Yokai Watch VS Pokemon flamewars even now.
Opening it up to other series like that would never work.
>>391847
Pokegirls threads are allowed you piece of shit.
They're pokemon related after all
>>393760
fuck you, you ruined my combo

Yes Pokegirl threads are allowed
Spamming 30 of them isn't, thats just being an obnoxious twat
>>393785
ahem what fag
this is not /mods general/, neither its your suggestion box, stop shitting this board with your shitty complains on your containment board
>>393796
Shut the fuck up, plebshit. Go back to tumblr then

Someone's trying to flood an anime thread with sprites of all 151 Gen I Pokemon right now, we could use some help from the mods
I've always wondered what triggers /vp/ so much about the anime. Is it because it's been getting attention lately much moreso than the "new game"? You'd think these people would know teasers for new stuff tend to happen in the anime first.
It's really hypocritical and ironic when you think about it, especially when these people consume Pokemon.
>>394619
The mere fact that the anime still exists is reason enough for them, I'd say.
>>394620
They're really dumb then, since they forget it is a marketing tool that works.
Not even Sonic fans are this brain-dead.
>>394615
>i am going to delete this thread
oooh i'm so scared
>>394622
The fact that one of those very people you refer to is in this /qa/ thread right now flooding it pretty much says it all.
>>394621
Just like the franchise itself then, how quaint.
So essentially what is happening is a bunch of Pokemon nerds trying to prove how "mature" they are as a fanbase by shitting out on the anime, in order for the other people to view how their fandom is "legit".
It's so pathetic. No amount of shitting will people change the viewpoint that you are a Pokemonfag.
>>394630
threads still not deleted I can't help but notice
So judging by this thread it's one guy who is triggered with the anime discussion that he's shitposting it.
Heh, I'm kinda reminded on Digimon Xros Wars back in /m/. Someone was so anally devastated that he kept posting literal shit, trannies, and such when he was online on the XW thread.
Ahh memories.
>shitposter gets triggered by /qa/ threads so starts shitposting them
>>394639
It's weird too, I'm not sure what the purpose of shitposting a /qa/ thread other than proving what he is doing.
He's not even trying to "scare off" folks, shit he posts might be cringeworthy but it's not like people magically click them or something, and there's worse in the net.
>>394639
At least he provides decent evidence that /vp/ needs some moderator attention.
>>394640
Nah its funny
well it keeps the thread bumped, ergo mods are more likely to see it, ergo actually fucking do their jobs and moderate more than just /a/ and /pol/
>>394649
Well I'm not :D
>>394649
>image post
>sage
now this triggers me
>>394647
The anime thread is easily the worst-victimized of any of the recurring threads on /vp/. I've never seen a general with so many devoted career shitposters who seek to derail it almost continuously.
What's happening right now here in the /qa/ thread and in the anime discussion thread (bombardment of Pokedex sprites, pizza and Tails scat comic) proves it so much better than any post I could have written by myself.
>>394655
that's not how it works anon, it will just keep it being in first post or something
but eh
>>394655
As if hitting the bump limit will achieve anything when another one can just be made
maybe we should flood /qa/ like the shitposters do to /vp/ :DDD
GRRR I'm so MAD >___<
Pokemon anime threads should just be on /a/
Pokemon vidya threads should be on /v/ and /vg/
tcg threads should be on /tg/ or some shit
literally why does /vp/ exist
>>394675
Yeah this is a much better idea. They can just have a daily /vg/ thread if they must need a general.
>>394675
To contain Pokemon threads
>>394675
Because >>391915
/vp/ is a containment board for a franchise that's too large to share a board with other video game franchises, but too ianctive at the moment to have a really thriving, active board of its own. For now, there's really not much of a choice but to keep /vp/ as its own board. Once the next game gets announced, the board will be brimming with activity.
>>394683
It's not a containment board, it's just a dedicated board. Both /v/ and /a/ regularly have Pokemon threads, there's no rule saying Pokemon MUST be posted on /vp/.
>>394675
Do you remember the time before /vp/?
When the Pokemon series posts were constantly shitposted due to general hatred of the series?
/a/ said they belong in /v/
/v/ said they belong in /a/
Pokemon is a massive media franchise that has both Anime and Video Games. But both boards were intolerant of the series saying it belonged on the other board.
/vp/ is a blessing, at least when it's not getting constantly shitposted.
>>394692
>when it's not getting constantly shitposted
In other words...it's not a blessing. Because it's virtually always under assault from shitposters.
>>394692
those people were retarded
they should stick their guns and say "this is an anime discussion", etc.
how the fuck is this thread allowed to stay up?
>>>/vp/24894020
>>394700
How do you stick to your guns when your threads are being drowned out in shitposting 24/7
Just sayin m8
>>394814
I can understand /v/ but /a/ has active mods
>>394819
Even a board with active mods can't clamp down on all of it. Plus mods have to be trained to tell when something is a shitpost based on the context it appears. I don't know how good /a/ mods are about that, though worth noting that /vp/'s mods are not good at it
>>394827
/a/'s mods are really swift and efficient
>>394768
It's about sexy humans.
Pokegirl threads are allowed to get away with a lot of shit that shouldn't be acceptable on a blue board.
>>394827
/vp/ needs someone who has been on the board for a long time to be the mod. Someone who can recognize the underage ban like buttscab, someone who knows what is discussion and what is shitposting. Someone who is active enough on /vp/ that they can help keep it clean. Hell, I'd do it for free on /vp/.
>>395278
I'd do it for free too. Hell, I even applied once but I didn't hear anything after that. I think a few people have mentioned they applied but didn't hear back.
>>395295
I'm sick of seeing /vp/ being mired in garbage. It kills enthusiasm. Fuck, this should be enjoyable time for /vp/, MS Paint thread is at 718 pokemon, they've been going forever and they should have a celebration soon. We just had the annual Christmas card and we're too busy dealing with shitposting because of leaksfags
>>395278
Mods don't want newbies in their private clubhouse. All the mods on here are friends of moot. Fucking Hiro needs to start opening mod applications
>>395411
I think he means becoming a janitor, anon. You don't need to be a friend of moot's to become a janny.
I hate to bring this up but there's already 8 Pepe Threads in the catalog and there's probably going to be more before they get deleted.
