So, 8/v/ is actually just vg cancer and here is real /v/ with porn, yet is fucking dead somehow How comes?

A good chunk of our subhumans are on sharty and 8kun.
>/v/ is people talking about videogames >/vb/ is just cuckchan /v/ but only with the porn addicts and not the advertisers since IPs from Israel and India are blocked Really makes you think
>>16475 >sharty Why would you go to a groomer site with a malware script?
I'd rather have slower, higher quality lewd thread than ones that get banned in 10 posts, and if they do make it past 10 they get filled with complaining and shitflinging.

>>16475 8kun is deader than dead And Sharty seems to struggle to got past 100 pph on a good day, which is better than here but it still slow, and a good chunk of the posts are just their brand of inane catalog spam
>>16461 Half the fun was playing russian roulette. You never knew whether you'd eat a ban for posting furry girls. I guess counter productively it's nice here and I don't want to spam and shit things up.
>>16479 cause viggers are retarded. next question?
>>16475 This place is still better though
Turns out people really did want to talk about video games
>>16461 Mods are retarded and the user-created boards only split the userbase. Not only that but the site is buggy and lacks a lot of feedback for when you're replying to threads and such.

>>16574 video game discussion gives me the ick
>>16461 >8/v/ = actually video games >8/vb/ = 4/v/ but dead >how come? China, Russia, and Israel IPs are banned from 8chan. That's why. All the bot and shill traffic is gone, and the few real human shitposters you are looking for went to sharty or some dicksword somewhere. Turns out the ragebait Twitter and Reddit threads weren't actually organic after all.
>>16574 *Turns out people really did want to talk about furry ladies
>>16475 Everybody keeps saying this but Sharty is just as dead as here
it is pretty funny that all the coombait whiners found out they actually fit in better on vg just cause they took the scary g out
I get that many 4/v/ threads were just repetitive bait, but something I liked about it was that I could glance over the catalog and pick out some stuff to look into based on the OP. When everything's just a 200+ post general where I have no idea what exactly is being discussed or if the recent dozen posts are just some fag spamming his waifu then I can't be bothered to click on anything.
>>16871 Generals have always been impenetrable to anyone who isn't part of the circlejerk. They're cancer.
Because no one ever wanted an actual alternative to 4chan.
>>16871 >post general where I have no idea what exactly is being discussed The whole point of a general is to talk about general topics under the main topic. You don't need to know what is being talked about at that very moment, you can post about what you want to talk about and others will reply. The only reason you got some fag spamming was because moderation made sure people couldn't self moderate.

>>16879 Imagine getting filtered by generals.
>>16475 >>16635 Dont go to the sharty they run malicious JavaScript on your computer. That's why they keep advertising it here. Also every single post is approved on the site. It's a grooming site ran by glowniggers
>>16461 neck yourself, fucktard
>>16635 I think it's something like: 8chan/kun scares off a lot of people because of the association it has to bad shit, no phoneposting, the need to use a VPN, being ungoogleable and getting sent to a wiki page that explains the bad shit again. Zoo is illegal in a lot of western countries. 2D loli is illegal in a lot of western countries. Most people just aren't willing to risk legal trouble for the sake of posting on a chan, and also just in general don't want to associate with a site that. Yes, it's unlikely anything will ever happen if they do, but if the average user isn't tech savvy they aren't gonna know that shit. Then you have sharty which is just pure fucking cancer, both to browse, the culture, the insane amount of spam, the anti-fun thread killing, the moralfag double-standard puriteens, retarded boards and no porn, and >soyjaks So you end up with most people trying to go on 8chan, getting filtered, going to soyjak, getting filtered, then giving up and going to twitter or some shit while waiting for 4chan to come back. Not to say that I like phoneposters, I don't, but they do make up a large amount of the internet nowadays. Also there are of course bots, but I think most anons are overhyping the number of them.
>>16891 NTA but kind of agree with that Anon in that generals are usualy a clique were its users have been engaging with each other for years, so that even if it is anonymous they already know each other, or worse yet, they are on discord or some other gay shit. The issue here is that if it is a particualry autistic general, and generals tend towards this sort of behavior, the general either have that disgusting clique-ish feel, or on the worst cases they are flat out hostile to anyone who is new or threatens their clique ritual circlejerk. And lthen we have to talk about when they become a cove of mentaly ill people who will eventualy leak and bring their crap to outside of their general. Now, of course that, not every general is like this, nor they start like, and there are good generals out there. But it only really takes one to create the kind of enviorement need to create virulent shitposters and schizos that can really ruin things for everyone, which for me, it is casus belli enough to have near zero tolerance towards general. And the tendency for generals to become spam and cluter the board is a whole other can of worns.
So is this the board where I post video game girls shitting?
>>16900 Surely there's proof to your claim?
>>16961 Surely you can check one of the many threads on /b/?
>>16475 So many normalfaggots are going to have CSAM going through their datamined ports without the strongarm consent. It explains to one to figure out why loli board was scuttled on old 4chan. Bad actors plus hatchlings will consume small fishes. It'll be nice to have national range ban...
This has all been hilarious to observe, it turns out that all the shitposters and faggots on 4chan were bolstered by bots and shills from shithole countries and most anons actually did genuinely just want to talk about video games.

This isn't real /v/ and will never be. Time to take a vacation until the real 4chan comes back because no altchan board will replace the true /v/ video games. In the case it doesn't come back it's just better to not bother with any altchans. They won't replace what made 4CHAD good: Having high quantities of very diverse posters to talk about basically anything you can imagine, especially true in /v/. Quantity is sometimes indeed a quality. Because that's the fucking point of going to 4chan in the first place. You can post whatever the fuck you want and instantly get replies also if you break or not break rules moderators usually go easy, letting you get away with some shitpost here and there unless it's some FOTM slop some mod were biased towards at the time in which case you get an instant 3 day for hurting his feelings. But so what? Just evade. As long as you are not fucking vidya butts poster itself they won't bother dealing with you further. The only people negatively affected by this are recognizable vg schizos whose posting patterns are so predicable 4chan can sniff their fingerprint and ban them again. But anyway, no one who is interested in truth or fun cares about vg celebrities. They don't do anything other than jerking off each other all day which they really should just do in some pisscord server instead like mods do. FACT = unofficial /v/ generals were always better than vg generals FACT = 4chan is the only chan FACT = People will forget about altchans regardless. But the moment 4chan comes back online it will continue being the main hub of true /v/ros. The one and only. Populated with all kinds of good and bad. Alive. Based.
>>16980 As an oldfag who has been on 4chan for almost 20 years, I always wondered how /v/ ever turned into the salesposting shitposting chartspamming Twitter Reddit shit that it ended up being, where on the entire catalogue there were maybe only 5 threads actually about video games without being some sort of ragebait Turns out it was all bots, and the people who are yearning for 4/v/ are actually yearning to interact with literal bots and literal shills and unironic third world shitposters. Crazy
>>16921 That only happens in generals about a single games that get no new content or online games and it's easy to stop if you have mods that listen to user reports and users that are willing to report them Out of all the generals I've every used only one or two were like that with cliques and those were ones for MMOs.
>>16981 but is he wrong
>>16986 Yea, a lot of modern 4chan seems to be genuine shitposting faggots who just want to shitpost with bots for all time and hate the people who come to imageboards because they actually want to discuss shit.
>>16981 >unofficial /v/ generals were always better than vg generals Because vg generals were shit up on purpose by mods allowing it to happen because they hated the board
>>16995 >a lot of modern 4chan seems to be genuine shitposting faggots Well, hold on there. From the increased traffic to the altchans, it seems like only ~10% of 4channers made it to *any* form of altchan. That means ~90% of 4chan posts were either bot traffic, shill traffic, third world phoneposting shitposters who can't even play video games, and then the rest are tourists who'd rather go back to Twitter or Reddit or Dicksword than go to an altchan. There have only been a small handful of real human people here on 8chan that have expressed a desire to shitpost with the bots on a "chan" rather than just going to the sharty.
>>16981 This. People kept saying the same shit during Gamergate. Eventually, they all went back to 4chan. 8kun's /v/ is fucking dead and markchan's /v/ is fucking shit.
>>16461 Kill yourself furnigger
>>17010 Don't worry, when 4chan's back up you can go back to shitposting with bots and retards from twatter.

>>16912 the 4chan analytics shows mobile users are like 20-30% of /v/ traffic
>>16461 It seems like the pph on /v/ is slowly increasing. I think eventually /vb/ will become a large board.
>>17006 >From the increased traffic to the altchans, it seems like only ~10% of 4channers made it to *any* form of altchan Massive underestimate. Just the sharty and 8moe combined have 1/5th of 4chans ppd. 4chan had a fairly consistent ppd of 700000 and both sharty and 8moe ~70000, 8moe a bit more but I round down to make the math easier. This doesn't even include the smaller altchans who maybe have another ~1/10th between them. So my estimate is that 1/3rd of 4chans userbase moved to to other chans. Not 1/10th.
>>16981 BASED
>BOTS BOTS BOTS! THEY'RE ALL BOTS! or maybe people just don't like this dogshit version of /v/ with gooners everywhere and general slop.
/vb/ is dead because threads last too long and there aren't as many users. Simple as.
>>17933 trvthnuke
>>16461 Because whoever marketed >if you want 4chan's /v/, go to /vb/ is stupid.
>>16475 I posted "ALL I WANT IS BITCHES! BIG BOOTY BITCHES!" on sharty as a joke and got instantly permabanned. Gay tranny faggot SJW cuck website to be quite honest. I like it more here.

Partner Swap is my favorite tag :D
>>17933 Nah, when 90% of the posts completely disappear off the face of the internet, it's absolutely bots, paid posters, and third world phoneposting shitposters. If you don't like /vb/ here, you could make Twitter screencap threads and Steam chart threads yourself, but no one is doing that... because the bots and paid posters are gone. If you miss 4chan/v/, you unironically miss bots and paid posters.

>>18378 how much do people get paid to shitpost on 4chan?
>>18494 No idea. The Israeli military requires Jews to serve in it for 1 year or something, so those people do it for free, or for room and board, or for whatever meager salary someone enrolled in mandatory military service is paid. There are also discords that pay jeets in $5-10 google play cards (for gacha) for them to shit up threads.
>>16461 The fact that /v/ and vg both exist but generals are allowed and encouraged on /v/ makes no sense imo
>>18515 Because you're thinking this is cuckchan where there are retarded niggers running a 'website' Here you make your board, and the guy who made the videogames board allows videogame discussion, ABIB isn't here to delete it
>>18378 A day or two after the site died I told people this. The reason things are so “slow” is because there were really were very fee genuine or halfhearted posters left. The shitposters moved to shitter or reddit or discord, places they originated from anyways. The other anons were bots making generic prompts like “what did she mean by this” and its a captioned image with a twitter screencap from a literal who.
>>16461 Looks to me like /vb/ post rate is slowly increasing, nearly hit 100 pph today whereas it was in the singly digits the day after 4chan died.
>>16461 >yet is fucking dead somehow >How comes? Too much porn can be a bad thing
Anal
because the retarded porntards kill the vibe of the board and make it an image dump board instead of encouraging discussion, where's my fucking sage option
>>16461 >Cuckchan spammer >calling anything cancer HAHAHA
God I love furry ass
>>16981 The “true” /v/ died a decade ago. It’s always funny when low-attention span teenagers who weren’t even born when /v/ was in its prime act like they’re the truth /v/. Cuckchan’s /v/ has been reddit since 2014. Actually, no. It was reddit, now it’s twitter. Pathetic.
>>19222 Yeah, this. It started dying in 2011, back when calling people out for reddit spacing was actually relevant, accurate, and topical. I don't know when it actually died, but it started turning into /v/eddit around 2011. Around the time the Costanza meme came into being.
>>16574 Indian shills and israeli polbaiters, get down!
>>16871 Both v and vg were general boards, vg was generals but with discord culture and v was generals but with b culture.
>>16912 >no phoneposting, the need to use a VPN Huh?
>>19227 >Costanza meme came into being. It came from /a/ before that
>>20030 I looked it up, and apparently it actually came from /sp/, which makes sense since George is playing baseball. Still 2011, regardless. It's impossible to forget it's from 2011 because part of the meme is ">2011"

>>16461 Most people moved back to 4chan because they're too used to the quicker pace of the threads and the ability to shitpost with abandon, even with all the restrictions and limitations of the site that 8moe more or less gets rid of. It's hard to drag people away from what they're comfortable with without forcibly relocating them first and foremost. And you'd have to actively advertise the site to people to make them aware of the option in the first place (which 4chan jannies ban because your're here forever lol lmao), something that you see those shartfags or those recent anthrofoo weirdos do with hidden image links and whatnot.

>>26436 Posting has been decreasing for years on halfchan and according to >>25982, the hack made it reach numbers it would have taken till at least 2030 to fall too.
