We all know /vp/ is a hell hole filled with shitposting, animefags, furries, waifus, amourfags, fetishes and whatnot that would drive any normal person away and never come back. But yet some of us do come back despite all the bullshit that goes on in this board. But why? What is it about /vp/ that keeps you coming back to it?
>>24888306
once you're in, you never leave.

It is because of those things you keep coming back. Pokemon is more than a game, it is a way of life.
Why, everything that you described is what keep me coming, and I'm not even a furry.
Compared to every other Pokemon community, this one is actually the overall least autistic and the most fun to be in.
Why?
Sure there's furfags and autists and shitposting everywhere but as a denizen of 4chans it's really not so bad. Since, in other places the furfaggotry, autism or whatever is done by everyone unironically, and goes without anyone batting an eye, it overflows and just makes the community uninhabitable by patricians such as myself. Over here such degenerates get rightly called out.
This of course leads to baiting and shitposts and whatnot, but somewhere in between all that is a bond that links everyone here to keep coming back. It's intangible, really.

Pokemon has something for everybody

I need to make sure nobody shittalks my bro and i also need to convince as many shitters to not like lucario
>>24889224
This sums it up pretty well. Most other places not only have way too many retards and colossal spergs running around, they also have rules that forbid you from even politely hinting that their posts are so autistic it's embarrassing to even acknowledge another human wrote them.
Over here, they get told to kill themselves the minute they post and immediately fuck off to some hugbox elsewhere, making the board a much more tolerable place.

>and immediately fuck off to some hugbox
Sometimes they stay and make it worse for themselves and us though.
>>24888306
Only place I can get some decent anime discussion and game hype
>>24888306

>What keeps you coming back
I like Pokemon
And frankly I have nothing better to do
It's the only place I can discuss the TCG. Reddit is awful, Pojo is obsessed with YGO and every other site is pay walled.
>>24892779
I WONDER WHO'S BEHIND THIS POST
>>24892804
>paywalls
Why is the TCG community so fucking retarded like that?
>>24892868
Because TCG players of every game are all elitists and autistic. The former stemming from Magic the Gathering players migrating around and always thinking they're superior to other card games they've never tried. There's a reason there's like 10 Magic generals on /tg/ and no other card games. The latter stemming from people thinking they'll have their super sekrit tech stolen before the tournament they compete in. Which never happens.
Because tumblr is full of stolen art and pretentious idiots who throw a tantrum if you don't agree with them and Deviantart is full of bad fetish art and bad gijinka RP groups.
>>24888306
No outside society will accept us
Because I like pokemon enough to buy every single game and cosplay it anddream about it
I had actually left /vp/ a little more than a year ago because I lost my copy of Pokemon X with all my mons and thus lost interest in Pokemon because of it. I found it stuck in my dryer today though and amazingly enough, despite the cartridge being partially melted, it still work. Came here today to see what was going on with /vp/ and it's shit as usual just the way it should be.
where else would we suffer together about >no leaks?
i like to discuss >tfw no poke bf with you tards
and also collect images
>>24888306
>animefags
>amourfags
Who gives a shit about them, they mostly stay in their containment thread anyway
>waifus
They usually make their own threads too and as long as they do that who cares?
Besides if you're that one jessiefag I heard about who shitposts by spamming images of Jessie and Ash being the best ship, you have no right to talk
>>24888306
Not sure if jessie, or her mom
