What rule did this thread break?
>>>/v/343652930
>>579558
Wasn't video games related, some mods allow buy fag threads on other boards but /v/ already has enough spam on it
If you buy somthing related to a game go on /vg/ and find that game to talk about the product you bought
If you're gonna try again try to make the thread look nicer, throw in a title, do some > formatting
>>579560
>video game merch
>not video game related
What?
>>579565
Last time i checked anon physical items are not a video game
unless you're a spyro fag

As with the POKEMON BOARD, this makes me wonder why you posted it on /v/ and NOT on /toy/.
Sp, you be sayin' "these are toys about video games."
Okay, here is a video game. There are toys. I can post the toys on /v/.
>>579558
What rule didn't that thread break, to make it easier?
>>579558
Rule of thumb
If you're topic requires a 'keep it -x- board related' warning, then it shouldn't be there
>>579568
It's easily a secondary thread nigga. Mods are fucktarded.
>>579606
horsefuckers always have to make things about them

Buyfag threads are not video game culture. It is off-topic garbage that the OP of the thread even had to warn the users to keep it strictly related. It's on the same level of relevance as your cancerous e-celeb discussions. You're better off posting that on /jp/, /vg/, /trash/ and /b/.
>>579558
was too lame and uncool
>>579706
Would you mind backing this statement up with anything other than your feelings?
>>579749
Mind backing your claim that buyfag threads are video game culture first? The burden of proof is on you.

Merchandise based on video game properties are part of video game culture. Cottage industries surrounding the video game market are the result of, and proponents of, video game culture. Purchasing toys based on intellectual property from a video game is something that a group within the subculture of "Video Game Culture" does.
"Video Game Culture" is similar to every other culture surrounding other artistic mediums, e.g. Otaku Culture.
The real question we should be asking is, "What, related to video games, ISN'T video game culture?"

>burden of proof
I'm sorry, is this a courtroom right now? You think anything like that matters? Watch me throw an Ad Hom at you and have nothing bad happen. You're a redditor and as such your opinion is invalid.
...
Do you hear that?
...
That's the sound of nothing happening.

>The real question we should be asking is, "What, related to video games, ISN'T video game culture?"
Given that your definition of video game culture is so broad I'll be sure to ask you those questions right now, so answer me on the following.
Are filename threads video game culture? Greentext stories video game culture? 'That guy' threads? What about confession threads?
Would you post cosplay threads on /v/ due it to being related to video games and the culture around it? Also let's not forget it's a fucking general.
>>579761
Stop posting forever.
>>579780
>Stop posting forever.
Thanks for the suggestion, Anon!
>>579558
Who would fucking buy that crap, anyway?
People who shouldn't be on /v/
>>579558
IT'S FUNKO SHIT YOU FAGGOT.
If you really wanted a legitimate buyfag thread you would have posted a quality figure but your intent is to bait. Buyfag threads are allowed, your shit isnt.
>>579568
SPYRO IS NOT TOYS! TAKE IT BACK!

>only *this* vidya merch can be discussed
>*other* vidya merch will be deleted
If that's the case, it should be explicitly stated in the rules.
>>579558
It's strange that this would get deleted but far worse things stick around on /v/.
>>580504
You know damn well no one likes funko, those threads start off complaining about how shit funko pop is and 100 posts in is where anons finally talk about buyfagging.
>>580569
And no one likes SWTOR or Battleborn or amiibos or fps games on console, but there's no rule on /v/ that only popular things can be discussed.
>>580569
Then add a "No Funk" rule to the rules page.
