Part 3 of of the ongoing discussion of making a video game industry and a video game culture board in order to wean out the shitposters and save as much of /v/ as we can.
The suggestions have been a /vi/ board that will be for discussions such as Gamergate, SJW's, Video Game Journalism((opinionated)), censorship, and talks about stock holder meetings and threads about a video game company as a whole, finance or otherwise.
/vc/ would be for culture. A sort of lite /v/. This will be dedicated to e-celebs, Speedruns, LOL Comics, Waifu threads, Steam ID threads, Deep Sea threads, and Santa Hat threads. Adventure Games are also allowed.
Another suggestion was to make these boards into one place called /metav/, which would be talking about video games outside of the box. So a combination of both /vc/ and /vi/.
The point is, /v/ must be saved. It cannot continue the way it currently is because shitposting has destroyed the board thanks to invaders from Reddit, Facebook and Tumblr. Topics are often derailed, off topic threads stay up for hours, unnecessary bans are handed out for no reason, and moderation is inconsistent at best. And for those arguing for Nazi moderation, look no further than /d/. If that's the future you want to see, than Nazi moderation is for you

And yet you continue to browse it. Why not show Hiro and the mods with a loss of traffic to the board, rather than shitting up /qa/ with /q/ posting.
>>396528
Only to see how bad it is. I can't even post on it because of how bad it is. And the problem is, its the most used board on 4chan, and thus it attracts so many shitposters. If you were to filter out all of the shitposting /v/ would significantly slow down.
But alas you're shitposting so what do you know?
>>396529
Eh? Presenting legitimate posts is shitposting now? We've gone too far down this rusehole. So, if only shitposters live there, the best way to fix the board would be nuke it. I don't browse /v/, so I wouldn't know. I'm taking an objective standpoint here.
You're correct in your assumption that I don't know, but not in the reasoning behind it.
>>396535
The reasoning makes sense though. Nuking /v/ won't solve anything. You get rid of /v/ you're gonna lose a large chunk of your audience. I mean yeah it would be nice just to have /vg/, but nuking /v/ would never happen, because Hiro probably won't let it happen and neither will the mods.

>/v/ must be saved
I thought it was. Why are you using the malware site's /v/?
>>396545
8ch /v/ is dying like the rest of the site, that's why we want to make a new boards here.
>>396558
*make new boards
>strawpolls
>>396558
8ch isn't going to die. The software migration is happening very soon.
>>396563
But all the shit that it's happening with the BO and GG says the contrary.
>>396566
Why not make another board on 8ch?
>>396573
That doesn't work anymore. Some group of shills always kill the alternatives.
>>396524
Too soon man, the other thread was still up. Also you kept the GG and SJW thing, which means this thread will be much like the last one in therms of shitposting.
>>396585
Not to mention he kept the raidpolls, confirming once again that everybody who seems to have and support this idea is retarded but me
>>396586
Maybe this is a troll thread. Eh, just to be sure I'll make the other thread anyway.
