>>332153116
Sometime during 2011 and "ishydiggy" people were basically memed up. The split between people discussing video games and shitposting deepened, and hostility since then has been increasing exponentially. People are fed up with the only place to discuss certain niche games/genres/what have you being overrun with underagefags and now unfortunately both sides are just flinging shit.

It's inevitable divide caused by normalfags invading and feeling the need to reject old 4chan. Look how many unironically use the word weeb. Or people playing CoD and the like. This site holds too many people. And mods need to cut some people off.

People will say "Oh it's not that bad, you're just overreacting.", but this really is the worst /v/ has ever been.

There is 0 discussion of video games anymore. Sure there are threads that are about video games, but they all devolve into shitposting and arguing about the most trivial of shit.

And when I go on the front page and literally half of the fucking threads are porn dumps, it only furthers my suspicion that /v/ is completely filled with horny adolescents that jerk off and before the cum has even left their dicks will shitpost in every single thread from their iPhone.

I didn't think that it would get any worse back in 2012, but even then you could find a decent number of threads about video games. Now you're lucky if you can find even one, and that probably won't last very long when it hits the front page.

/v/ is fucking dying, and this place is in need of of some big brother type moderation if we're going to have any semblance of vidya discussion.

I see a lot of posts with terrible spelling and grammar that would have been torn apart a couple of years ago, now people just barely seem to care anymore.

This isn't necessarily a big deal but I think it's because /v/ is getting filled with normies and underage who don't bat an eye at this sort of thing, same reason I'm seeing Drake posted more and more everyday.

>>332161425

you know im not saying your wrong but the porn dumps have been going on since the fucking beginning and saying that shit isn't part of /v/ is just showing how ignorant you are.

also >2012

that was one of the worst years for /v/ I don't know why your thinking that year was decent.
>>
>>332162504
Porn dumps have always been apart of /v/ of course but they've been getting completely out of control lately. I don't mind 1 or 2 porn threads but when half the front page consists of porn dumps it just gets tiring.

2012 was terrible but I honestly think that 2016 /v/ is shaping up to be 10x worse.

porn dumps have not been going on since the beginning, faggot.

there was the RARE thread but never was the front page filled with constant otaku bait faggotry. It's getting to the point where it's as bad as the feels and rage nonsense. what makes it even more annoying is that it's fucking retarded when 4chan has multiple porn boards but instead dumb faggots have to constantly spam the shit on the blue board.

the worst part is how many fucking edgy 20-something faggots there are now. I've pretty much given up on /v/ ever getting better moderation or being cut down to multiple boards to deal with the traffic issues.

there used to be text boards on 4chan but no one ever used them, so they got removed.

that said, chinese moot / mods turn /v/ into a textboard. fucking do it. That change alone would fix most of the problems plus be hilarious. The only other option is to break up /v/ into smaller boards similar to /vr/ to help offload the moderation workload.

>>332163508
Chink moot added a new text board that only the OP has pictures for which could work for /v/.
Another thing he could do is make an image filter so all drake images get changed to dsfargeg or some shit.
>>
>>332163176
>that actually makes me remember all the >tfw no gf shit

The inconsistency in moderation on /v/ is completely baffling, it's almost like they want things to be like they were in the period immediately after /r9k/ got nuked. Games-related threads will 404 due to a couple faggots out of a few dozen posts getting into arguments or unsuccessfully attempting to derail threads with furshit or whatever, but blogshit threads from socially inadequate aspies that exist only for them to whine about how bad off they supposedly are get left alone and go to 500+ posts in the same period.

Also, what's with the resurgence of CP posting the last month or so, anyway? Is it just one autist in particular that's upset about something?
>>
>>332163696
text board where only the OP has pictures could work. You'd have to restrict how many threads you can post in a certain amount of time though otherwise people would just spam threads on the front page.

>>332163754
/v/ is a hard board to moderate when it gets so much traffic but yes lately moderation has been incredibly inconsistent. More than usual, anyways.

Probably one faggot doing it, since Uboachan has been hit by something similar lately too.

that reminds me of the time the site got hacked and replaced by a default BBCode forum, the people were talking about forcing anon to change, or they would use a campaign of hate, actively destroying the community from the inside with endless puerile shitposting.

that was fucking years ago though, you'd have to be a complete stark raving bonkers cult to keep that up...

It's just downright bizarre that they seem to want autistic "I'm so badly done by, why don't girls like me?" feelshit to come back in full force; but in the last 18 months, O/T shit that was always considered staples on /v/, like threads devoted to freaks like Chris-Chan and Dobson, or LOL threads (Though I've noticed mods deleting and issuing bans over LOL threads that were actually on-topic and hadn't been derailed by the redhead tranny comic or Ito or whatever else) have been cracked right down on. Also platform war shit has gotten particularly awful in the last 18 months, but they're barely making any attempt to curb what is just outright shitposting.

>>332166036
Pre-/vg/? Not nearly as much. Partly because there wasn't this youtube/twitter culture which makes it easy to be outraged about the smallest shit (and this goes for both sides).

The worst /v/ had was Donkey Kong and Manly Tears. Although the rise of Mogulus and stream culture caused some shitfits.

Moot did that because he was chucking a big sad at /pol/ for hurting his feelings though. E3 is already so insane here that nobody would notice an invasion. Actually, people would welcome it during E3 because it means you'd be able to post more than once a minute about whatever they're showing.
