Why does everyone say /r9k/ has gone to shit?
I think that's said about pretty much everything.
Because shitposting and fembois
There are more normies here (women, people with girlfriends, kids in college) trolling/mocking us than there are actual robots.

That's the best part desu
Because you are here.
There wasn't a difference between /r9k/ and /b/ until 2 months ago (besides spoilers, and initial user base). Now we have the robot, which is a good thing because it stops short, effortless responses
don't expect to gain anything from browsing /r9k/ though
Rose tinted goggles, they don't realize it was always shit.
Because the board is loaded with normies.
>I just broke up with my gf :(
>I miss my ex so much!
>What are you doing on NYE, robits? I'm going partying with my friends XD
>I luv the frog meme so much...what's the kool next one you'll be doing in 2016?
Because when r9k created the people who came there had left /b/ because they were tired of uninspired shitposts, trolling and recycled content.
The result was you had a board full of people who actually cared to police their own quality content i.e. not bumping obvious /b/-tier content.
r9k 2008-2009 was legitimately good, after that blogposting and eventually feelposting took over the board and its slipping more into livejournal-esque content ever since. Also the /r/4chan influx when 'rare pepes' and 'normies' got popular polluted the user base even more with undesirables.
MORE POSTERS = WORSE BOARD

I take it you haven't been here for very long.
>>25288549
Bullshit, /b/ has mostly just been a board for weird porn since at least 2010
>>25287188
too many normies, I used to browse it everyday before the shooting, but since then I come here only once a month because too many of /b/fags have moved here and also more and more redditors and 9gag user base has made this board its home

Your dubs don't lie, go to 4+4.
Where did the oldfags flee then. Most other chans are either shit or too lifeless, /r9k/ is my meme prison :DDDD
>>25287188
fembot here threads and posters
>>25289034
It's more cancerous than /b/
