Why is /v/ so rabid?
>>475051
Because it's a video game forum.

>anyone else from a video game forum
There's not enough mods to moderate that place
Full of newfags that think being a rabid shit-stain is the 4chan norm.
That and it's full of faggots that pretend to be retarded to get replies as well as legitimate retards.
To get a better idea of who is on /v/, go look at any other gaming community, then add anonymity and a heavy dose of what this guy said >>475058. It's a bunch of kids acting retarded, with another two layers of stupidity on top of that.

So the same as current /a/ or /b/ before /b/ became a porn dump?
>>475055
>Because it's a video meme forum.
FTFY
>>475051
it replaced /b/
/b/ was a sea of shit.
now /b/ is the tutorial board

I think I've just found my next favorite fetish. Thanks, OP.

Easy. Video games cause violence.
When I was a kid, me and my friend used to have arguments over whos toy was better. This would sometimes go on and on, eventually evolving to a shouting match and occasionally physical altercations, until parents intervened.
This is /v/ in a nutshell except there is no physicality involved and no parents to put people in time out, so it's just one eternal shouting match about who has the better toy involving thousands of people.

Because it's full of 13 year olds from Reddit who think that 4chan is a place where you must act like a complete jackass.
>>475051
Because it's a mob of anonymous, angsty teenagers on the internet arguing about toys.
Every single person who plays video games on a regular basis is a mentally stunted invalid with emotional issues

>So the same as current /a/
The difference is that /a/'s vitriol is largely segregated on certain shows, and is pretty much nonexistent for a good chunk of shows and topics.
The only place on 4chan which has the same vitriol as /v/, without being hate based on IRL bullshit, is /g/.
/a/ is like the happy retard who stares outside the window and barely tries to hide the hand in his pants. /v/ is the angry retard who realizes he is different but interprets that as a sign of distinction and superiority, and therefore flaunts it.
