When did /v/ stop being about having fun and start being about ruining other peoples fun?
>>
>>331071876
Around the time when people started spouting PC master race
>>
When the stupid ass janitors made it so that theres nothing else to do for fun.
>>
2006
>>
>>331072143
This.

Arguably, when a large group of faggots convinced everyone that rules 1 and 2 of /b/ only applied to raids.

Not sure if any of you remember 2010-2012 but those were fucking terrible times to be on /v/.

2010-2012 was fine to me.

We grew up.

Why doesn't Hiro care about /v/?
>>
>>331071876
Because most of /v/ believes that ruining other people's fun is fun and that if they hate everything, they look smarter.

Literally impossible to fix this shithole board. /v/ is every other board's dumping ground as well.
>>
>>331072606
Because /v/ is unsalvageable shit.

Deleting this shithole would be nice, but console warriors would spread to other boards like roaches.
>>
>>331072758
Its not impossible. Hiro made special rule exceptions for /a/, he could do it for /v/.
>>
>>331072606
Too busy selling our info so he can make money.

That means in 8 years everyone else will catch up saying kek instead of lol and sperging cuckold memes?

It's a sad world when people are concerned about how intelligent they appear on an anonymous imageboard.

Was he a fanboy? Everything he said came true.
The PS3 pulled on top of the Xbox in the end. And the PS4 dominates the Xbox now.
>>
>>331080519

The issue isn't whether or not he was correct, it's the tone. "Karma is a bitch." That's hardly a neutral statement.

I think, for the last few lines, his tone is fairly indicative of someone who has a bias.
>>
>>331080938
I see. But perhaps he's not a "fanboy" but rather, just a "fan", who has had to endure the no games meme interrupting every discussion? That's really the key issue he's having, I think. Is /v/'s deterioration in post quality.
>>
>>331072503
That's because it's when you discovered 4chan.

Nope, he was wrong about comic books.

Nah, I came here in 2007.
>>
>>331081185

Right, but he could've stopped a mere three sentences earlier. He decries the deterioration of post quality and then immediately makes three statements against members of "the opposing camps." It's hard to believe that he's particularly better than the people he argues against.

>>331081232

2007-2016 seemed fine to me.
>>
>>331081353
Making reasonable predictions, that just happen to be negative, isn't the same as being a fanboy for a particular camp. It's just "here are your crimes, and here is the future you chose".
>>
>>331081568

I think you're missing the combination of my two points; the acerbic tone combined with the tribalism is what drags him down to the level of shitposter. The correctness or lack thereof would not matter.

Sorry, I'm off for the night, so I'm ending the discussion here.
>>
>>331081753
I think you're missing my point. That you're inferring the wrong tone. Because his predictions are negative toward certain parties, you automatically assumed he means to attack them maliciously.

You are doing exactly what he described. Fitting him in a camp. You think you're making a rational judgement. But you're not.

>>331081319
Well then you're just wrong, /v/ was alright up until 2011 into 2012 when muh reddit boogeyman/feud got popular and hilariously brought retards in from all corners that wanted to be with the cool kids

Ruining other people's fun is a type of fun
