It's become very clear to me that /vp/ has become one of the most cancerous, underage boards on this website.
How can we fix it?
I propose we ban all talk of "poketubers" and "e-celebs", as they tend to attract youtube kiddies around the age of 10.
Secondly, I propose something is done to limit the number of fake leaks people try to post every day. Maybe just delete "leak" posts that contain no real evidence of insider information. If anything has a solution to this, that would be great.

Having mods would be a good start.

This board is coming dangerously close to Infinitechan Migration Level. It's already happened to /b/ and /v/. The same reasons people migrated from those boards are the same thing that are happening to this one. Porn, underage Redditors crawling out of every nook and cranny, and mods that can't even deal with one shitposter.
Granted, /vp/ is a lot smaller than /b/, /v/, /pol/, etc, but I think it's still going to happen.
contain leak bullshit to one stickied thread.
We don't need 20 threads on the catalogue of people posting yu-gi-oh and spanish novella memes a week before we can even expect anything from coro
I wish pokemon are real threads were legal...
>>26984373
This. I might sign up to be a janitor one day. These last few months since the start of roothoot have been getting worse and worse
>>26984357
make a sticky thread/announcement with the Title "You are a Betatester? Get a Trip show pics or BTFO"
Oh and Furfags need to leave.
>>26984357
Ban pokefilia
Discourage generic threads like "find a flaw"
>>26984357
I think the word Verisify need to be filtered and/or banned
>>26984612
i wouldnt mind this
how about changing it to "hot cummies"
>>26984357
>I propose we ban all talk of "poketubers" and "e-celebs", as they tend to attract youtube kiddies around the age of 10
I was going to say how stupid this thread was, but actually I completely agree with this. It's less about the people who they attract and more that the majority of them are either advertising, or something really close to it. This board would be a much better place if we could get rid of those somehow.
make it a red board to filter out underage
>>26984658
that would most definitely be counter-productive
>>26984555
In the past they've usually been allowed if they're not too RP-circlejerky. Casual threads seem fine, once the names/trips start moving in is when they seem to get deleted.
>>26984658
red board status would just pull in kiddies who hear that they can find May porn here
You know what? I'm done. You want to talk? Make a thread. If you can't deal with everyone being against you, then you never deserved to speak to begin with. If you can't stand firm against them, then you never really believed in what you claim to believe.
>>26984555
Why are they banned? What are they about?
>>26984715
People hate RP, for unexplained reasons.
>Ban Pokegirl threads
>Ban furfaggotry
>Ban e-celeb shit
>Be actually moderated
There, board is almost fixed.
>>26984357
/vp/ is full of pokemon fans. You can't really fix it because it's supposed to be shit.
>>26984373
This would not be a bad start however, so for example, we could have an anime general that'actually works.
>>26984730
>Ban Pokegirl threads
>Ok with anime threads
This is partially why /vp/ is so shit, people here can't even figure out what's wrong with it.
>>26984715
They're just stupid "act as if Pokemon are real" threads where people ask questions about Pokemon as if they were real animals or stuff like that, for example "there's a Beedrill hive outside my house, what should I do."
The problem is they always devolve into roleplay threads (which aren't allowed) with people playing characters, going on journeys, shit like that.
>>26984771
Don't ask, you'll never get an answer.
Stop the /sp/ tier meme culture and get some competent mods.
>>26984777
I already know, but most people not doing so wont make it change.
>>26984771
I didn't list all the problems though (honestly there's barely anything redeeming on /vp/ nowadays). We have a general for Ashnime. A better moderation would hopefully enforce it.
>>26984785
I don't follow. You expect an answer from people who either can't or refuse to give an answer?
>>26984799
Too many anime threads are the least of the board's problems. The anime is a major part of the franchise, I don't think it should be shoved into one thread any more than the games should be.
And for the record, I haven't watched the anime in years and don't post in those threads. I just don't have any problem with them.
>>26984373
I love this <3
>>26984805
I expect an answer from people who claim to know it.
>>26984799
>We have a general for Ashnime. A better moderation would hopefully enforce it.
And not only ideally it shouldnt exist but it should at least be useful. Which is a way bigger problem than males feeling sexually attracted to females.
>>26984825
>The anime is a major part of the franchise
Yeah, it's its major problem.
> I don't think it should be shoved into one thread any more than the games should be.
Then don't have an anime general period.
>>26984773
That sounds really cute. They should allow that.
>>26984921
You're not going to get one answer.
>>26984933
>Yeah, it's its major problem.
Well, that's a matter of opinion, I think. It's not my thing, but some people enjoy it, and that's fine. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean that people shouldn't be allowed to discuss it. As long as they're not derailing non-anime threads to discuss it, I don't see any problem with having one or multiple threads about it.
We need actual mods.
>>26984994
In the past it generally has been allowed, until it goes from a casual one-off thread to a persistent roleplay. That seemed to be the trigger for deletion.
>>26984994
It isn't. It's nothing but headcanon, and involves porn and people pretending to BE pokemon.
>>26985054
no, they were pretty nice threads in the beginning
only sometimes do they devolve into that
>>26986601
No, they're not. They're an awful mess. It's just like the rest of the board, fighting over what they think the pokeworld is.
>ctrl + F "gardevoir"
>0 results
Not saying it would solve all the boards problems but getting rid of them or at the very least keeping them in check would improve this boards quality tenfold.
>>26984757
the ashnime general is probably the most heavily moderated thing on the whole board, and it was clear that at least one jannie was an amourfag.
You're just whiny.
>>26984994
>>26986684
Someone post the dirty diaper roleplay posts
>>26984757
>>26984933
You reeeeally don't like the anime. I mean, cool, but maybe start tackling actual problems. First.
Anime shit is nothing compared to the board being flooded with /v/, /pol/, tumblr, 8gag, YouTube and Reddit.
YouTube being the biggest problem
>>26986705
>the ashnime general is probably the most heavily moderated thing on the whole board
Every time the anime general gets hit by
shitposting or something the general doesn't like some faggot goes off and cries on /qa/ that someone else has a different opinion.
Thats why.
>>26986735
/qa/ doesn't know what this site should be either
>>>/qa/581501
This is the current /vp/ thread, by the way.
>>>/qa/580462
>>26984357
>I propose we ban all talk of "poketubers" and "e-celebs", as they tend to attract youtube kiddies around the age of 10.
Yes.
>just delete "leak" posts that contain no real evidence of insider information
Yes.
Having mods in general would be the first step, though, the lack of moderation on /vp/ is appalling, Tailsposter can spam for hours and nothing will be done about it until someone goes to /qa/ to complain.
>>26984555
Literally kill yourself.
>>26986711
I gotchu senpai
>>26984357
Nah, delete all genwars, they are against the board rule and we already know it's a single person doing then all the last year, not even an influx problem.
>>26984715
It's a rule from another board it seems, the single corrupt mod /vp/ got is from there so he's using their rules while autistically shitposting here too. See: >>>/qa/581175
>>26986786
>tfw multiple of your posts have made it into that /qa/ complaint thread
>>26987292
OKAY, I'LL LEAVE, HAPPY NOW, YOU GIANT DOUCHE!!!!!!!!!
>ITT: deleting RP garbage is bad
It'll never end, OP.
>>26987292
You should be happy: being a retarded little bitch on the internet is the highest point on your life.
>>26986886
Troid is raping another board he knows nothing about. He also samefagged a thread that triggered him too much: >>>/qa/581501
Make Impeccable Taste Guy a janitor
>>26987325
>You should be happy: being a retarded little bitch on the internet is the highest point on your life.
My mom is very proud of my life achievments. :^)
While its obvious /vp/ has a lot of underage it's still a good board. Hype for SM makes for a lot of discussion and theres a lot of creativity and OC coming out of the board, /heg/, and the people posting their game betas here.
The Masuda spam isn't good and eceleb shit needs to be tamed before it hits /v/ levels of cancer.
>>26984357
Is this your first pre-release/leaks season on /vp/? It's always pretty much like this, although admittelly it has been getting worse since XY's leak season.
