Why are Vivian threads, Gamergate, and 8ch still banned topics on /v/?

The last one I can understand, but the former two are defintely /v/ related. Vivian was born on /v/ for starters, and gaming-related news, pertaining to drama, corruption, and so forth ARE /v/ related. I understand moot wanted to stifle these topics during their heat, but it's definitely died down now, and I see no reason why 4chan should continue hold any sort of allegiance to one side over another?

So why are GG/Vivian related discussions still banned on /v/? To cater to our tumblr userbase who gets asshurt at the mere mention of GG? Plenty of our userbase crossposts from 8ch as well ever since 4chan stopped being about free speech due to the increased speed here, but any relevant or interesting topics are instantly shut down by mods.

Doesn't exactly seem fair, does it? And all it's doing is its creating this idea that some topics are too taboo for 4chan, something this site has never stood for at its conception. The entire POINT of anonymity was freedom of speech.

I think that disallowing healthy discussion over controversial topics ultimately hurts this site severely, and makes it seem like only ONE opinion is the correct one (and it's the PC one), when that is never the case.

If anything, I'd like 4chan to go back to how it used to be, where people felt a lot more comfortable to discuss whatever topic they wanted as opposed to feeling like I'm a monkey in a cage and I'm only allowed to shitpost over trivial shit because interesting topics are instantly deleted by mods.

Why are these two topics banned on /v/?

Why can /v/ have Samus threads, console-tan Tuesdays, but not Vivian threads?

Moot's gone now though, that's my point. Plus, 4channer have doxxed plenty of people in the past, and it's never been an issue before.
>>
Gamergate raped 4chan's corpse. No, really, it only brought more unwanted people to here. Redditors, underages, feminists. Not to mention that it was an epic fail, since feminazis are still messing up with games.

It destroyed 4chan even more, it made moot left (along with the Fappening and /pol/), and you still complain about it being banned?
>>
>>501896
Stiffling discussion that opposes redditors and femenists only makes this place more comfortable for those people.

Have you SEEN neo/v/? Tumblr ideology is unironically rampant these days.

Even if it's what attracted them in the first place, disallowing discussion tgat disagrees with them is what's causing them to stay. Do you realize how dumb that is? Do you realize that that's EXACTLY how they operate over on those hugboxes? Why should we shut up too and welcome them? Why are we censoring any discussion that offends these people when 4chan usex to self-moderate and scare away retards BY OFFENDING PEOPLE?
>>

>>501888
You want a serious answer? Fine, here's a serious answer.
You weren't here back in August. You just plain weren't if you think it'd be even remotely okay to start allowing that shit again. Nobody on /v/ has even a fraction of the maturity required to discuss a subject like that without acting like fucking monkeys about it- making dozens of threads, calling anyone who disagrees with them a tumblr reddit SJW, screaming and whining over meaningless Twitter posts, etc..
This utopia you speak of where everyone is having healthy discussion over controversial topics on 4chan has never and will never happen. A terrible man once said "Anonymity + Audience = Total fuckwad," and though he was a terrible man, he had a point.

>>501899

I wouldn't care about it if 4chan was still somehow secret and if you niGGers blamed other site, but no, you have to tell them that 4chan did it. Go fuck yourself, go back to 8gag.

God it's like if the moderators would do their job it wouldn't be a big deal or something. Also fuck off with that ' you don't REALLY know' bullshit. It wasn't perfect or even tame, but it wasn't that terrible.

I feel like everyone who thought that was the end of days had never been around for any kind of meme explosion.

The thing is, I don't overly care about GG or their ideology, but some of the topics are interesting to discuss, and ARE vidya related.

Moreover, Vivian image dumps should be more than allowed. It's fucking dumb that mods have the power to shut down perfectly rule-abiding threads in order to shut down any discussion.

Pic related is an example from literally minutes ago. You immediately see people go on the defensive, some people bring rational discussion, and the thread gets shut down.

>>501902
I was her back when it happened, in fact, I've been coming here since 2006, and it was nothing out of the norn. 4chan has been through much MUCH worse. In fact, I strongly remember GG threads being contained to ine general thread, two at most, until they migrated to /vg/. Then they were shut down, and it blew up in defiance, and then they fucked off to 8ch.

4chan doing activism is NOT new. Anonymous and /b/ were both involved in the Occupy movements. I was there for it, I remember. And even before then, raids were a common thing on this forum. And trust me, that's not even close to the worst of shitstorms this forum has experienced, like not even. But if one thing is certain, 4chan has always stood for anonymity and freedom of speech, and GG is not even the worst it's had, at least not to justify utter censorship and PC-friendly board culture. There is absolutely nothing wrong with allowing GG-related topics on /v/, especially since the movement died down, and their homebase is on 8ch. And while there will always be opposition, the entire POINT of discourse is to allow conflicting views to butt heads with each other, not create a hugbox where everyone agrees.

If anything, /v/ desperately needs new mods, because shit like pic related is NOT ok. In fact, I guarantee I got a ban for that for posting "off-topic garbage."

>>
>>501925
>>501923
Also, I wanna add that this does not only pertain to GG related topics (stuff like Rapp being a hooker, Gawker getting btfo, etc...), but also anything doesn't adhere to /v/'s new PC-friendly board culture.

I distinctly remember DoA threads getting shut down for posting images if Marie Rose, or mods and janitors actively deleting any images of Marie, lewd or not, on the grounds that she "looked underage." On 4chan of all places.

I can cite dozens of other examples, but this is just a new trend on /v/, and many other boards in fact, and while it's obvious we've had an influx of tumblrtards, having that, on top of having to make this place a friebdly hugbox for them genuinely makes me upset.

I would leave at this point, but after 10 years of using this site, I'd at least like to try and make an effort to see if things can change for the better.

You don't have to be a tumblr SJW or even a leftist to hate gamergate cancer. 4chan was never how you describe, certain topics have always been bannable offenses. Go discuss your moral outrage over SJWs in the gaming industry on twitter, faggot, and stop asking to discuss activist faggotry here.

Nope. That's bullshit. The people it brought here are the MRAs and redpill idiots. Previous to that 4chan was pretty liberal and full of teens. Now it's a bunch of mid 20s /pol/tards who shitpost the same boring crap all over every body and become triggered at the slightest thing.

>>
>>501923
Yeah, you should've gotten a ban for posting off-topic garbage, because it IS off-topic garbage. What the hell does a meta thread have to do with video games? Gamergate has never, ever, ever been about video games. Even if you argue "but it's vidya culture!!" it's still FAR more about the people involved than it is about the video games. It's fucking politics, through and through.

I also find it hilariously ironic that you're mentioning hugboxes while also claiming that everyone should agree with you that Gamergate "discussion" should be allowed. Gamergate threads ARE hugboxes, through and through. It's just like the "tumblr ideology" you claim to hate, just on the opposite extreme.

>tl;dr
You deserved that ban, meta threads are not video games, and Gamergate is like 90/10 politics to video games.

That reward still belongs to 2013 /v/. The single lowest year for any 4chan board I can remember.

I don't think that means GG should come back, but you can't even start to conflate GG to the worst /v/ ever become. 2013 was the year that all the moderation just gave up and the entire board was consumed with irrelevant banter that would have been considered stale and tired if it was on /b/.
>>

Finding out that Rapp was a hooker was less politics and more outright hilarious. Also, it a SJWs who.keep trying to shove politics into vidya, us making threads to complain about it, or threads to laugh at dumb shit the do, like the PR FOR NINTENDO MOONLINGHTING AS A PROSTITUTE, definitely constitutes a /v/-related topic. Especially if dank Reggie memes, and Iwata memorials have been allowed. It falls into the same category.

Why are tumblrinas still afraid of the big bad GamerGate? Do you check under your bed at night for them?

Also there is no reason at all why GG should be banned on /v/ now. moot IS gone, but its the SJW mods he left in place that want to keep it banned. Hiro doesn't know shit about GG at all, mostly because no one bothered to tell him about it. If he knew about this and how it was video game culture, he'd allow it again

Furries aren't banned from 4chan because people quake in their boots at the thought of being molested at night, but because furries are generally awful people.

What do furries have to do with GamerGate to begin with? What possible comparison are you trying to make? You can't just go around and say "All of GamerGate is bad because of what a few faggots did".
>>
>>502205
/pol/ has been allowed to do whatever it wants for many years now. Incidentally,

>"People who try to do bad things use YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and 4chan also," Nishimura told us. "As long as such people live in the world, it happens. Right now, I don’t know how to stop them and I really want to know. If there is a way to stop it, we definitely follow the way."


>>502206
>What do furries have to do with GamerGate to begin with?
It was an analogy. I assure you that nobody genuinely checks under the bed for SJWs, either.

>You can't just go around and say "All of GamerGate is bad because of what a few faggots did".
Most of the Gamergaters who made their way into the boards I usually visit were insufferable faggots. As far as I can tell /v/ was generally a welcoming host to this community, which generally had a mentality of fighting the culture war on whatever front it could be found. They are all faggots.

The only reason GG got banned from /v/ was because moot was not only dating a girl interning at Gawker, but he was also pretty friendly with Anita Sarkeesian as well, and he made that known in the leaked IRC logs. It was both his GF and Anita who convinced him to ban GG from /v/.

And then when /pol/ found out moot's GF was cucking him with some Chad, he threw a bitchfit and deleted /pol/ for a day or so. moot caused that mass exodus to 8Gag, and then only a few months after he did that he decided he was done with 4chan for good.

tl;dr moot was, and still is a massive cuck
>>
>>502213
So /v/ threw its lot in with a community that revels in pointless drama shit and was expelled from 4chan, and lives on 8ch to this day?

Sounds like the best of all worlds.
>>
>>502215
Except GamerGate actually exposed a lot of corrupt journalism. Yes GamerGate fucked up on multiple occasions, but the ideas that GamerGate started, such as anti-censorship and the SJW menace still live. That's why anytime you try and talk about censorship and get accused of being a GamerGater, that person is clearly a butthurt SJW

>Yes GamerGate fucked up on multiple occasions, but the ideas that GamerGate started, such as anti-censorship and the SJW menace still live.
People had been talking about censorship and progressive overreach before Gamergate came along and turned the whole movement into a laughingstock.

GamerGate really helped spread the anti-censorship movement. You look before GamerGate and you'll notice there weren't even near that many complaints about censorship. Now because of it more and more people are pointing out how games such as FE: Fates and Xenoblade X were deliberately censored

Way to just take some anonymous idiot's post at face value. No, what she did was nude modeling which she posted on her Twitter.

Except she WAS a hooker, and it was exposed. This would be more obvious to people if any and all discussion about this incident wasn't stifled by mods each time it's brought up.

>but it's not vidya
Then neither was Iwata's death and Todd-posting. It's vidya related news, and should be allowed. Just because it doesn't fit your political agenda, doesn't meant its discussion should be stifled.

Also, feel free to look up the rest of the images proving her moonlighting as an escort yourself

>GG harasses women, they got Rapp fired
No, Rapp was fired because she worked as a prostitute while being PR for family-friendly Nintendo. GG had nothing to do with it. They were merely laughing at the mess cause it was too rich.
>>

Because a few people actually DO go there, because it's one of the most popular forums on the planet and for that not to the case would be a statistical impossibility. And they bring shit back usually to make people like you mad.

It also happens to be one of the highest-traffic boards on the site. Also, your point is that "4chan is so PC now," and you have no actual evidence to back that up, only false dilemmas, like assuming that I'm PC for pointing out that /pol/ will spit in your face for having an opinion they don't like.

But it's still an outlier, as all the other boards combined still have way more traffic. It only barely surpasses /v/ or /b/, and /v/ is very PC friendly. Case in point, make a GG thread on /v/, and the mods delete it, that is, aside from the asspain evoked from the tumblr landwhales.

Vidya news, and GG are videogame culture and abide with the first rule.

GG threads aren't deleted because they break rules, GG threads are deleted because mods don't like them. Despite the fact that any GG-related thread is bound to hit bump limit, because people like discussing scandals and drama pertaining to vidya culture.

No they don't, GG is activist faggotry.

GG threads get deleted because you faggots should have never left twitter, not because they are "PC" what ever the fuck that means to you.

>>
>>502623
>GG is activist faggotry
Agreed, but I still wanna talk about why it's funny that Rapp was a hooker, or why it's lame DoAX3 didn't come to the west etc...

I don't see why it's ok to censor these threads, when they both fall under "vidya culture."

>GG threads get deleted because you faggots should have never left twitter, not because they are "PC" what ever the fuck that means to you

That's a very keen way of saying, "they get deleted cause I don't like it." Like it or not, they're vidya related and abide by tge rules. Don't like them? Hide the threads. The fact that threads can be deleted BECAUSE idiots like you are offended by them is precisely what makes neo/v/ PC. That's exactly the sort of tactics SJWs use to stifle dissenters.

There is literally no reason why GG threads should be deleted when they pertain to vidya culture. If you're gonna write it into the rules that only SOME topics pertaining to vidya culture should be allowed, then you're gonna need to clarify fampai.
>>
>>502626
>The fact that threads can be deleted BECAUSE idiots like you are offended
You don't get it. The threads aren't offensive because of their content, they are offensive because they are thinly veiled excuses to post a bunch of twitter hashtags for you faggots to form your little anti-SJW brigade and go harass SJWs with names like SchlomoGoldbergstein. Meanwhile, half the faggots doing this are proud to tell everyone they are from 4chan.

>>
>>502629
And raids have always happened on 4chan before GG ever even showed up. I'm not even saying GG activism should be allowed, I'm saying topics pertaining to vidya news ABIDE by the rules and SHOULD be allowed.

Mods and Janitors can happily delete twitter hashtag posts, that's fine, but disallowing discourse is the problem I have. Why should only the voice of GG supporters be the only one to be silenced? But if I wanna make a thread talking about Nintendo's PR rep being a hooker, I should be allowed. Especially since on that incident, GG is also not involved. They're just spectating, and watching as the idiots over at Kiwifarms are starting up a shitstorm. It's dumb that GG has become the boogieman for everything neo/v/ doesn't like, when /v/ has been aligned with GGs values well before it was even conceived. And again, a lot of 4chan oldfags have migrated to 8ch because of how "friendly" these board became.

Yeah because mentioning the subreddit you came from is somehow "knowing the inner workings of reddit".

You idiots have been caught time and time again trying to recruit for your stupid justice crusade here. When are you going to get it through your dense heads that very few people here give a shit about gaming clickbait sites and the shit they write? It has nothing to do with being 'PC' and everything to do with you faggots being activist cancer.

I don't give a fuck about GG's activism, but I do wanna talk about the bullshit that goes on in the industry. GG is my umbrella term because anything that doesn't agree with the SJW narrative is instantly labeled as made by Goobergaters.

Look, movements corrupt and dissolve and so forth, but MAYBE, maybe I wanna talk about the happenings of a videogane movement in a VIDEOGAME forum.

These sorts if topics were commonplace on /v/ for the longest time, they've only now become taboo. Honestly, if anyone needs to go back to whatever shithole they came from, it's you. 4chan is MY shithole, I was here first, and I've been tolerating retards like you shitting my forum since 2014.

This is hilarious. It's like how you chase off anything that's not PC-approved outside of /pol/, then people go to /pol/ to say those things, then once those things are contained to /pol/ because of this, you say they're from "/pol/" even though the only reason they went to that board in the first place is because you contained those things to that board.

That's why you are here defending GG's activism like a butthurt summerfag. There is no part of GG that isn't activism. It's a bunch of outraged faggots like you kneejerking over how horrible the SJWs who wrote such-and-such article are. Even worse are when the threads become nothing but hashtags. None of that has anything to do with vidya whether you accept that fact or not, which is one of the good reasons why it's banned here.

Second link is an anti-GG faggot with a Reddit filename being happy that something that triggers him was deleted from /v/, so it has nothing to do with your boogeyman.

You SJWs are fucking retarded at this point. Keep using buzzwords like "activism" "/pol/" "moralfaggotry" "GG" "KiA" while claiming it's totally not about you wanting to control the content on 4chan to be more in line with your SJW sensibilities.

That's cute. Was that intentional?

Can't really see any proof since all the images on desutorage seem broken, but at worst it means some people take their images from there. Not really any "raid" or "blackup for their personal GG army".

Look, I've just checked those /qa/ threads and they're full of retards who obviously don't browse /v/ or most other boards. Some guy claiming that people who don't want censorship in games are "/pol/tards" and "/r/kotakuinaction fags" even though the majority of /v/ has been complaining about this shit way before GG even existed.

All those threads prove is that /qa/ is full of whiny Redditors who will go so far as to make threads on /qa/ to get content that triggers them removed from the boards they monitor, which is sadder than anything "GG" does. When it's something you don't like, it's "GG" "activism" "moralfaggotry" "kotakuinaction" "raids" "/pol/ and thus bannable, but when you faggots are shitting up our boards, it's "free speech" or "bait", and if it's literal raids from your Reddit boards like GamerGhazi, it can be ignored.

GamerGate and the like is far more on topic then half the marketing and flamewar bullshit on /v/ these days. Fuck I'd say /v/ is worse now then it's ever been in the past 5-6 years thanks to the influx of Tumblrfucks and Neogaf posters that have flooded the board and are likely to thank for most of the forced goldface memes. If anything should be banned it should be those posters, they contribute nothing to discussion and worsen the board for everyone. At least GamerGate stuck to one thread.
