META: How to fix Cred Forums

desu, I think it's fucking retarded to discuss these matters in a different board, for obvious reasons (they aren't at all the same people that actually visit the board etc.).

Mor elike no one cares to argue here and would rather win via ad hom and group attack.

Make me stop m8

>Removal of tripfags

Pepe emojis

shitposters are shitposters; they don't mean shit
having an imposed character minimum detracts from the spirit of this website
plus I can make my point in less than 250 characters should the need ever arise
but that's just my opinion

>- Removal, blocking, filtering and/or bans of """bad""" words such as Cred Forums, reddit, SJW, shill, alt-right, etc.

I wonder who is behind this post.

>How do we fix Cred Forums?

Everyone leave because literally all of you are retarded nu male cucks with shit opinions and worse taste in games and memes.

I will happily stop when its made to be against the rules, until then, hush child

Shit like this should be bannable.

I think...

The character limit is dumb. 150 minimum for OP, and 50 per reply would help if we need to.
Thread IDs are great.
Removing trips would kill the drawthread, so I'm against it. More strict bans of Mariel should be necessary, so per-trip bans and banning hardware related to trips.
Restricting "bad words" is a dumbass thing to do. We pride ourselves on freedom of speech, it should only be handled in cases where people overuse it, which should still be up to a moderator's discretion.
Banning is too vague. I agree phone user-agents should be restricted from posting, though. Going too banhappy would cause problems.
Dubs are good for when people post relevant image roulette games, and those I think should be allowed until a thread turns entirely to it and gets derailed. Sometimes, it's necessary to bring in a bit of homemade fun to keep a topic lively.
I think e-celeb shit is cancer and there is very clear and blatant cases of people trying to sell their channel. Dunkey is probably the biggest offender, and I still don't even know how to get to his channel because I know him by name and don't want to go look at it.

Remove Twitter screen caps

Is it so hard to find some mods that would just delete non-gaming shitposting threads and spam of the same shit (ie no one needed 25 "lol numalesky" threads, few was enough)

>250 character minimal post length, 500 on OP (this is my own one, so it gets to go on top).

I'd lower it to 100 in both cases.

>Thread IDs

Necessary.

>Removal of trip fags

Great

>- Removal, blocking, filtering and/or bans of """bad""" words such as Cred Forums, reddit, SJW, shill, alt-right, etc.

No. Just ban people who misuse them. Are we reddit now? Let people use whatever words they want, just ban for being fucking retarded or underage. Ban for shitposting, not for using certain words.

>bring back dubs

Ehh okay I guess.

More stuff to include:

Public bans. People need to see that faggots who post dumb shit get banned. Maybe, just maybe, if underage kids will see that shitposting gets them a ban they'll calm the fuck down or leave forever.

Bans for "your mother dies in her sleep tonight" and everyone who replies to that shit.

Don't ban for talking about stuff, ban for shitposting about it. I love when threads about space vidya devolve into discussions about weird space shit and people mention games that do that right. And then the thread gets deleted. Same about anime, as long as it's connected to vidya.

Delete threads not related to Video games. Thats about it.

All these ideas are terrible, you should try reddit. Its more suited to you by the sounds of things.

PIC RELATED is the problem with the whole website

As nice as some of that sounds on the surface it will just turn this into an unbearable echo chamber. We barely keep it from turning into one as is.

>- 250 character minimal post length, 500 on OP (this is my own one, so it gets to go on top).

Not only is this Idea shit, you are trying to force your own ideas in on the discussion because you are a narcissistic little shit

Go away and stop making this fucking thread

>- Thread IDs (by far most popular)

If you get baited by someone samefagging you had it coming and prooly should have been lurking longer. I bet your dumb ass just got here not but a year or 2 ago. You are not supported to post for 3 YEARS! That way you don't get fucking TROLLED!

>- Removal of trip fags

No one like a trip fag, but they don't cause shit for issues, so shut the fuck up with this one.

>- Removal, blocking, filtering and/or bans of """bad""" words such as Cred Forums, reddit, SJW, shill, alt-right, etc.

This is how I know you just got here, people will just find worse words to use in there place of the filter. You are a fucking retard and everyone who jumped on board with this stupid idea is a huge newfag

>- Just a lot of deleting and banning in general (ban phoneposters, ban >20 year olds)
So shit that can't even be really determined until someone personally looks over the post to see if they said im not 20/posts an image

>- bring back dubs
NO, YOU FUCKING FAGGOT

THIS IS Cred Forums SHIT

YOU ARE THE CANCER OP

GO AWAY NOWWWWW

RREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

There is literally nothing wrong with phoneposters and being over 20.

Here's how to fix Cred Forums:

Ban people who are obvious shills that are viraling games. You can tell who they are because they always make the same posts with the same pictures.

Ban waifuposters, lolicons, I wanna fuck X posters, furfags, etc. They don't talk about games, they just talk about their fetishes. Perhaps make a /ve/ board (Video Games - Erotic) for them to fap and circlejerk in.

Ban e-celeb, SJW, and twitter drama threads. No one cares. Linking videos and streams are acceptable if they're in the context of a thread's discussion however. If there's an epic maymay video (see pannenkoek) going around, make a sticky for it so it doesn't flood other threads.

Make a fucking sticky when happenings happen ala Tortantic, No Man's Sky launch, PS4Pro reveal, etc. We don't need 20 threads that all talk about the same thing.

Ban people that constantly post goldfaces, NEVER EVER, APOLOGIZE, CAN PC MATCH THESE GRAPHICS, etc. Granted that 9/10 it's a Sonyshitter posting these threads, it's just annoying as fuck and always baits retards to comment within. Console wars have always been a part of video game discussion, and everyone loves a little banter, but that's all they fucking do all of the time. It's old.

>Wants to get rid of low quality posting
>Wants to bring back dubs

What the fuck?

Frankly I don't understand why we don't have thread IDs already. It would get rid of much of the samefagging/shilling as well as people who spend their time accusing others of those things.

Unique thread ids. Can be confusing as fuck who is replying to who sometimes, and it would make it harder for one butthurt autist to shitpost 100+ times in a thread.

Why didn't this stick around? I vaguely remember them trying something like this once. Maybe that was /b, it's been awhile.

People who are sick of politics shit? I mean virtually the ONLY people who show resistance to moderating politics shit here are newfags and Cred Forumstards. Generally the same thing.

>We pride ourselves on freedom of speech
Cred Forums is one of the last places I think of when I think of freedom of speech

>dubs
>lowering the quality
How so?
Every other board has dubs

It's a feature on Cred Forums even now and Cred Forums would need it much for the same reasons so I don't understand why administration simply won't enable it here when working code for it already exists.

...

those are singles, not dubs, retard

you got your attention, whore

I guess you forgot why they had to be taken out in the first place. Dubs could derail every thread, even good ones. Trips would derail without fail. There would like 10 threads up for the sole purpose of trying to get dubs that mods spent all their time deleting.

I remember someone actually posting how dubs threads were his favorite thing ever on Cred Forums.

dubs where a way of censoring what you don't like, just like 100% of op suggestions

Op needs to go back

why

you

redditor?

>implying double spacing wasn't a Cred Forums thing first

Newfaggot

>filter 'bad words'
>bring back dubs

what the fuck is wrong with you? calling out shills keeps this place mostly clean of shameless advertising. if you want fucking dub and trips threads gb2/b/ faggot. what the fuck is 'alt-right' anyway? shit doesn't get used here.

getting non-shit mods that stay consistent and actually follow the board rules would be a great start.

on top of that, anything vaguely disguised as vidya needs to go. this includes but is not limited to: eceleb shit, twitter screencaps, borderline NSFW pictures/cropped porn. I could go on but who cares

we need this now more than ever

tin foiled

stop posting

>want to have more vidya discussion
>let's bring back dubs
you know how retarded this sounds right?

>censoring bad words
>on one of the few place on the internet with true freedom of speech
"no"

allow anime games discussion but ban waifuposting

Cred Forums saved

you can't just "fix" Cred Forums. this is just another case of redditors imposing their bullshit rules and memes on us. if you don't like it, leave. there are countless video game websites.

>ban >20 year olds
gen 6 babbies want to get rid of people with actual perspective of the industry so they can continue their Kingdom Hearts devart circlejerk in peace

>I don't get irony

Its fucking spacing, no one cares

You would think ultimate shitpost-kun would be hint that maybe it could be a joke?

Maybe?

:^)

>Removal of trip fags
This please

What exactly are the problems with Cred Forums?

I'd also like to see the quality of the board improve, but I'm curious if everyone is even capable of agreeing on what needs "fixed".

For example, I think relentless hyperbole kills most decent discussion about video games. I also think greentexting is overused. It's dull and almost depressing to see so many people try and condense their feelings and experiences down to a series of bullet points.

>banning phoneposters

For what fucking reason? All the shit phoneposters do can easily be done on a computer as well. Might as well ban people who post from a computer too.

Just fuck off already

You redditors don't have the slightest clue about how to fix this board, stop making these dumb threads

I'm 25.

Having perspective on the industry has not made Kingdom Hearts circlejerking any less pleasurable.

>- 250 character minimal post length, 500 on OP (this is my own one, so it gets to go on top).
That's a good idea but 250 and 500 seem excessive.
>- Thread IDs (by far most popular)
It's been proven that the majority of shitposters can easily get around them so no.
>- Removal of trip fags
They're not as big of a problem as they used to be a few years ago.
>- Removal, blocking, filtering and/or bans of """bad""" words such as Cred Forums, reddit, SJW, shill, alt-right, etc.
Besides people can just get around filters by calling reddit leddit for example so that wouldn't help, or they'll just keep using them even if they get filtered into something else, like baka desu and senpai. Shit like "reply to this or your mother will die in her sleep" that does nothing other than waste replies needs to be dealt with though.
>- Just a lot of deleting and banning in general (ban phoneposters, ban >20 year olds)
Not every phoneposters/underage is a shitposter but we do need tighter moderation of off-topic posts and threads in general.
>- bring back dubs
What's the point? Gets are the exact same thing anyway.

>It's been proven that the majority of shitposters can easily get around them so no.

Unless you have some stats to throw around I'm not convinced they are worthless. People are lazy shits and I feel like all but the most dedicated shitposters would not want to shitpost so bad that they'd keep changing their proxy or something.

So yeah it won't get rid of someone dedicated to his autism/shilling but it should get rid of your everyday garden variety samefagging.

Don't have it on me but there's a screencap of someone posting with six or so different IDs in a row.
>it should get rid of your everyday garden variety samefagging
Usually that's not enough of a problem to require IDs and even when it is it's easy to tell.

Autism is a hell of a drug, aint it?

This guy gets it

More then 80% of the reason why shit gets out of hand is because people get baited by ANYTHING and when someone with a tip is just talking about games someone is still going to throw a fucking fit over ignoring them.

There is almost never a case where something "big" lanced jack/manly tears could been noting if people never went in the thread in the first place. The only thing outside of people having common fucking sense is to ban all the people who do post in those dumb fucking threads.

really if permabaning could be a thing I would like that.

I'd rather be able to filter them easily than have to read around their garbage.

And just because a few people will, most aren't that dedicated. A girl I work withs husband shitposts for fun for example, and he is in no way computer savy enough to deal with proxies.

But is there any downside to having the IDs? I can't really think of one so why not just turn them on and see if it does anything.

Permabanning would actually be lovely.

Fuck, I remember being afraid to post on Cred Forums because I worried that I'd be banned for having poor grammar. That's what this site use to be like.

It's more nostalgia than autism at this point.

Individual poster ID, barneyfag is filtered, anybody who uses it gets a warning

Character limits are shit for a place like this. You'd basically kill every content thread, because noone is going to write a fucking dissertation just to post a webm.

Filters are likewise shit. You're not my fucking mother.. Let me say whatever the hell I want, and mods can decide if it's within normal rules or not.

>wants to put post length, but bring back dubs

Get fucked. We have enough trouble on Cred Forums without them.

All we need is A) mods enforcing normal and general rules fairly and often, and B) mods being modded, and getting rid of the infiltrators and shit ones who delete for SJW reasons or personal taste.

I don't think it's so much people getting baited as it's people knowing it's bait but replying anyway because they want to discuss the topic anyway.

It's not so rare for OP to be some WHAT WENT WRONG? shit with an image of what is generally considered a good game and it to be actually a pretty decent thread about the game because most posters in it aren't faggots.

Nothing is ever going to come from this, so stop making these threads.

Fuck off faggot

Remove this faggot forever
Worst tripfag on this board

When mods actually enforce rules the crying is endless though.

>Boohoo mods hate fun, Cred Forums culture is what makes this place, I don't want to just discuss videogames ;_;

Like console wars for example are against the rules. If they started banning everyone who shits on a platform with no actual critique the board would fucking implode with all the screeching kids going mad over it.

That would just encourage copy paste shitposting to hit quota

>child

>250 character minimal post length, 500 on OP (this is my own one, so it gets to go on top).
Holy shit this idea is fucking awful

I wouldn't even be able to tell you this without writing a dissertation if this rule was in effect right now.

Trolling and responding to trolls are both against the rules, but they are never enforced. Please enforce them.
Also ban "this is b8" posts.

>all these bad suggestions
>no removal of e-celeb shit and console wars faggotry
You'll niggas must be getting that shill money from e-celebs and companies. You can even find people defending ubishit around here now.

Remove these threads

90% of problems on here would be solved with proper moderation. Nu-moot will never fix this issue though and is using these dugguestion threads as a way to contain us complainers

Let it implode then, who gives a shit? It'll settle down in a week tops.

This hugboxy "noooo we can't make changes that'll rock the boat!" bullshit has to fuck off. Anything that'll actually help this board will piss people off in the short term, that's unavoidable fact.

>Thread IDs (by far most popular)

Funny how that worked out when it was the least popular in the first meta threads, i guess /qa/ always finds a way to get what they want.

Even in the poll you guys made, Thread IDs weren't even in the top 5.

People who want to police what kind of on topic content is allowed are the fucking worst people in these threads.

>None of these words like shill because they trigger me personally!!
>No talking about video game related Youtube shows like Dunkey because I don't like them but Game Center CX is okay because I like it!
>No weeb games!

etc.

They did that with GG and now its barely existant on here.
Nothing happens instantly, but shit would improve

Honestly at that point they just should have a normal thread if they do want to talk about the over using the same reused line that seems to be the "thing".

That's very bitter of me to say but that how I really feel about it
Then let them bitch.

Permanently ban the Generation Z hardware like Blizzard bans cheaters.
This is non-negotiable.

>blocking ""bad"" words
>bring back dubs
you are fucking retarded

I would agree if they had a team of like 100+ mods constantly doing their job. At most what we can get is sudden enforcing of rules and massive outcries and then when mods don't have the manpower to keep it up things return to standard shitposting.

Half the people you have normal convos probally use these items too retard. This fixes nothing and would be too complicated to impliment.

That's implying there are good ones.

This picture is DDT to my brain.

>Thread IDs (by far most popular)
christ these threads are fucking autistic. what a stupid fucking idea. i swear to god if this happens i will fuck you in your faggot ass OP.

There are definitely less autistic ones

Nice arguement
Oh wait

>defending the gen z
Sit down Zed, your days here are numbered.

>every gen but mine is baaad
Ok bud, I'll leave you to believe that

That's retarded, you'd just encourage people to fill their post with nonsense to meet the minimal character limit. Only Cred Forums would come up with something that stupid.

oh wait? oh wait, as in, you realize what a fucking faggot you are and you're going to shove a dragon dildo up your ass?

The culture/quality of the board isn't going to change through stricter or more lenient moderation.

Well, maybe if they take a far, FAR stricter stance with penalties, like heavier ban sentences. But even those can be worked around by dedicated ban-evading shitposters.

Significant change has to come from self-regulation by the community. Ignoring threads that are obvious bait, rewarding decent OC with praise and attention, making OC for the fuck of it, chastising posters that are clearly unfamiliar with norms of the board without allowing it to derail entire threads (lurk moar), etc.

I feel one of the major problems with Cred Forums (and probably Cred Forums as a whole) is that shitposting has become an acceptable staple of the board culture. The board is in decline because posters don't expect anything better from themselves or other posters. In a sad way, it's become part of the selling point. Want to have completely vapid memes vaguely related to video games? Check out Cred Forums!

Thread ID's won't do shit to stop shitposters because they are shitposters.

Look how mad you are user. Just chill alright. It'll be ok

Tell threads that get a new one with "Last thread >>>" in the OP as soon as the previous reaches bump limit to go to /vg/ and delete them

Delete more shit in general

Make more public bans

Post more as mods telling people why they should fuck off. I mean a lot of kids posting here are not even aware of rules.

>None of these words like shill because they trigger me personally!!
This is more of a case who get baited with dumb shit and should get banned anyway if they get mad at a word.
>No talking about video game related Youtube shows like Dunkey because I don't like them but Game Center CX is okay because I like it!

My thing with this is that both (and almost always) turn into I WANT TO SMELL X HAIR type of threads or YOUTRUBEGUY446 DID X OR SAY SOMETHING ABOUT YOUTUBEGUY778 drama shit its like how people grab shit from twitter and bitch about it.

By itself I don't really care if people talk about gamecenter CX or lets plays or whatever but they can easily turn into shit.

Name 1

>ban >20 year olds

No, roll threads are retarded.

>- Removal of trip fags

99% of all shit posting is done Anonymously.

>bring back dubs
Fuck off OP-faggot.

>- 250 character minimal post length
OP you are a fucking moron.

OP is just shit posting.

Anyway...

1. Filter all of the worst meme/buzzwords. Cuck, Cuckold, senpai, senpai, etc... and somehow filter all feels and frogpost images.

2. Somehow prevent Barneyfag from posting at all. Or at least make an adjustment to the rules that will shut him up.(he will find another reason to do his thing regardless, though)

3. Something must be done about the plague of "what is a video game that let's me not video games on Cred Forums?" and "what is a game that has not video games on Cred Forums?" threads.

4. Something should be done about the mods. This board needs mods who actually properly moderate. It seems that each mod has their own set of rules they abide by, and you can be banned for posting something that a mod simply doesn't like, or for posting a perfectly safe for work image that the mod somehow thinks is "not safe for work". Remember those two Tifa Lockhart pics you can't post any more just because you can see the bumps of her nipples through her top? I don't feel safe posting on Cred Forums any more because I can be banned at any moment despite having done nothing wrong.

Containment boards have been modestly successful at best.

They've helped to regulate the topics of discussion, but they haven't done anything to improve the average quality of posts.

no

yes

Dont get me wrong, theyre all fucking retarded. But reliable ecchi fuckface is by far the worst

I just want more consistent moderation. Sometimes everyone gets banned for going slightly off topic, sometimes loli threads stay up and get ignored.

A more solid foundation of what is and isn't allowed would do more imo.

Shitposting is always going to happen, and people will still find ways around it, as they did back before 2010 when most people didn't have cellphones with decent webbrowsers. I just think consistent moderation would do more to drive the community culture than prevent the inevitable.

Most of those are great, but
>character limit
I don't know what it is now, but it better not be less. Sometimes I write a whole lot in one post.
>Dubs back
Literally fuck right off. You have no idea how bad this board was when dubs were a thing. You think the shitposters and console warfags are bad? Try getting every single thread slid because someone gets dubs, or trips. At least on Cred Forums all dubs are relegated to KEK, but I don't want that here.

Seriously, DONT FUCKING ADD DUBS BACK.

Also what I would like to see is better moderation on how many of certain of the same kind of threads are made. Like Persona 5 stuff, sometimes you get like 3-5 of the same threads, or FFXV, and all of them are saying the same thing. Mods would hopefully delete extra ones, or something. It really clogs up the board.

Also for the love of god, get a e-celeb board or something. I'm sick of having vaguely vidya related idiots being shilled for no good reason. ITS NOT VIDEO GAMES, it is a personality.

I've been on this board for 7 years, and I would say it's gotten better. This place was ridiculous back when dubs, no captcha, and trip/namefags run amok. Now I only have to ignore obvious baiters.

>Well, maybe if they take a far, FAR stricter stance with penalties, like heavier ban sentences. But even those can be worked around by dedicated ban-evading shitposters.

Don't forget that the current mods will invariably distribute unfair bans to people who didn't deserve them. Probably while cancerous not video games threads will be left untouched.

as you can tell from your post familia is already wordfiltered to senpai

I thought cuck was wordfiltered to kek a while back. They should reintroduce it.

Also agreed that 250 minimal limit is fucking stupid and people would just add shit like asdfasdfasdfasdfasdf to the end of each post.

You're playing right into a tripfag's hands by even bothering to remember them. Why even look at the name field. If you can't stop looking for some fucking reason run a script that makes everyone user.

You're not wrong. But I'm comfortable with those losses.

Agreed, but now I'm curious to know who's the least.

I have a few I've not filtered because I see them post on topic.

Until it happens to you...

people made the same argument about the robot on r9k, and it's true some people just add "blox" to prevent getting chat banned but for the most part it's a lot less spammy though the discussion can leave much to be desired at times

I didn't know Cred Forums was broken.

There is nothing wrong with Cred Forums, you're all shitty morons and it's why I come on this board. I love you all so much, don't go changin'

Cred Forums is beyond saving. Its nothing but shitposting and Cred Forums lite.

Make it so that peoplr who don't play at least an hour of video games each day can't post. Maybe even two hours.

He said minimal length, not character limit.

And it's an even worse idea considering it would stop people from being able to make prompt replies. Everything would have to be a fucking litany of words with lots of filler for no reason.

>99% of all shit posting is done Anonymously.
Yea and about 40% of that is due to tripfags shittimg up threads
You don't tell the monkey off for throwing shit. You tell the guy holding the banana, teasing the monkey, to fuck off

Hiro you better be reading this shit you son of a bitch

>filtering bad words
Reddit pls

>implying An Hiroshima can even read English

Trips have been used exclusively by attention whores to distract from threads since the beginning. Who are you kidding?

I think it could work for OP posts. It would at least get red of shitty meme threads like "What went wrong?".

It's time to get rid of the 20 year old kids that feel safe and secure about shitposting here, since it didn't work out for them at reddit and tumblr over the years, this has been their new sanctuary.

Yes, but e-celeb threads are shitting up many boards other than Cred Forums, such as Cred Forums, Cred Forums, and even Cred Forums

People would just fille the rest of the post with spam/pasta/randomly generated shit.

>minimal post length

I dunno. I think I'd rather have a trigger-happy mod end my time with Cred Forums than watch the site continue its steady decline.

Get rid of Cred Forumstards or delete the board. There's no in between

What's wrong with having a tripcode?

I hope this is high quality bait. Oh no, now I have taken it.

>ban people older than 20
Is this a joke?

>- Removal, blocking, filtering and/or bans of """bad""" words such as Cred Forums, reddit, SJW, shill, alt-right, etc.

I actually think this is a good idea since both sides need to shut the fuck up

Oh, right.

>delete the board
Remember what happened after /r9k/ was deleted?

What constitutes a Cred Forumstard? Because from what I've seen, even saying nigger or faggot gets redditors triggered and having them spurt their meme sentence

nothing, I was saying NO to removal of tripfags
>wow he has different opinions than me must be bait

Bring back moot and force him to fix his mess.

To some extent I think we need to come into terms with the fact that an anonymous message board is always going to have some degree of shit.

It used to be the standard expectation, now there appears to be some illusion that somehow this board will actually have video game discussion more than 50% of the time.

I won't say that nothing here will ever work to make this place a little better, but some of this shit sounds like wishful thinking.

Well if the opinion is as worthless as "Bad posts that shit up the board are okay because they're board culture and culture cannot be changed!" then I have trouble believing it's a genuine opinion and not an attempt to whore attention by appearing to be retarded.

nobody here even plays video games, half the people here watch e-celebs play them. it's either e-celeb bullshit, indie dev kickstarter bullshit or smash fags trying to convince people their party game is a fighting game rofl.
Can't make this shit up

Let moot have his peace.

He found a way out. We can only hope to be so lucky.

Ban the Neptunia general.

Yes it's a general in all but name.

Why should we keep tripfags?

>implying he doesn't post on Cred Forumsmblr

Oh, ok. I was seriously thinking about making one for this board.

Here's an easy fix; wordfilter "cuck" to "duck"

Globally.

Well for Cred Forums plays a vidya thread, having a OP with a trip is nice. But the tripfag culture ruined it. Now it's mainly special snowflakes who need attention.

No one said delete Cred Forums, retard. Also Cred Forums doesn;t contain shit. Your meme is they'll all come here if we get rid of them but the issue is they already flood everywhere, so your idea of Cred Forums containing shit is a laughable joke.

But seeing people like Boco and telling them to fuck off is fun.
Do you hate fun?

Honestly this. Anonymous board has both upsides and downsides that come with the other. Some ideas here could be worth trying but standard measures to reduce bad posts like more/stronger moderation, filters and IDs would just make this place closer to every other forum/board online.

I don't think it's worth it to limit the freedom & anonymity just to bring the shitposting down a little.

As an oldfag with foggy, rose-tinted spectacles, I'm still firmly convinced that things took a sharp dive around 2013. Arguably sooner.

It's true that no online community will ever be perfect. People will always have shit to complain about. But this place could do a lot better for itself.

Most of the problem with Trips are caused by faggots who reply to them with ironic shitposting reminding them they are tripfags.

They're ultimately a non-issue since you can easily filter or force user with X or appchan.

But what constitutes a Cred Forumstard? Because as I've said here It's just shit you don't like so you spurt your hurr durr back to Cred Forums meme

Whining about black people, whining about liberals, whining about "progressives" whining about American politics, making posts clearly politically charged etc. It's quite easy to tell who is a Cred Forumstard

And no one got mad at you for saying nigger. People got mad at you for going "Fuck niggers need to be executed I am sick of niggers in our games"

Protip: Cred Forums was always quite tongue in cheek with the racism and not actually stormfront like you clearly believe it ever was

>Now
Attention whores have been a big part of tripcodes since forever ago. Originally it was posters who came from other places like Gaia or Gamefaqs and felt the need make a username because they were accustomed to it.

>No one said delete Cred Forums, retard.
>Get rid of Cred Forumstards or delete the board.
I never said Cred Forums contained anything but if it was deleted they'd just spread to other boards even more than they already do.

Now you're changing goal posts. Kill yourself. Go back to fucking/pol/ to wqhine about hiow black people in BF1 ruins games for you and we need Trump to fix it

Sticky all iceberg threads. They're the only threads where people actually discuss vidya.

This so hard. What's his nuts posted twice, some other guys have posted 10x that amount bitching.

Out of curiosity, how do thread IDs work? I've never seen those.

Does said tripfag reply off topic? Because shitposting a tripfag, imo, is worse than being one. You're giving them attention and they're not going to care about you announcing their trip status or that you've filtered them.

BF1 is a legit complaint as the only reason they did that was to pander to minorities. And not all of us are leftists. Is it really that triggering to you that some people don't share your sentiment with the gaming world and the shit that goes on in it?

Based on what? They are not contained. Deleting it would change nothing as nothing keep[s them there in the first place.

Just accept people really hate you SJWs

>Protip: Cred Forums was always quite tongue in cheek with the racism and not actually stormfront like you clearly believe it ever was

Ah yes, hello fellow 4channer. Are you also an oldfag?

>Yea and about 40% of that is due to tripfags shittimg up threads
False. I rarely see many tripfags these days. Stop using a boogeyman as a crutch.

Again with the boogeyman.

>Some newfag doesn't like the place so he tries changing it by force

Yeah and FUCK YOU TOO, PAL.

>250 characters minimal post length
No, what the fuck.

>Thread IDs
Sure.

>Remove trip fags
Very bad, leaks happen weekly here. Start banning the usual trip fags and we have a deal.

>Filtering words
No

>Bring back dubs
Sure.

>thinking hiro is going to do anything

How am I doing that? And the term is moving the goal posts.

>IDs
I'd just post on reddit if I wanted those.

Tripfags haven't been a serious problem since-

Well, honestly, I don't think they've ever been a genuinely serious problem. Sure, they'd completely derail threads occationally. But I always got the impression that Cred Forums's best-kept secret was how much fun most people had with self-absorbed tripfags.

Does he? In what threads?

epic contribution

I second this

How about Cred Forums does a serious fucking overhaul on the moderation team and the moderation system.
When blatantly rule breaking threads are left up for hours after a report is made, what the fuck is my incentive to report anything?

Because it will fix nothing. If they were removed, you'd no longer have anyone to blame but yourself for all the problems Anonymous posters cause, and this time, you wouldn't even be able to filter them.

Hating tripfags for being tripfags is a meme, a shit-posting meme, you do it because it's cruise control to troll and shit post because they're obvious targets.
>"lol tripfags are so easy to bait!"

You can pretend all you want, but here you are, shit posting about tripfags despite them not even being in the thread.

Rangeban Canadians to get rid of Barneyfag once and for all.

Hiro is going to do anything
That fucking chink comes here every few months, asks how to fix Cred Forums in broken english, then fucks off for another few months leaving the mods to clean up the mess he made.

I no longer have the image, but the first couple of years were full of tripfags. Once "user is legion" started taking off and idiots started to raid in the name of Cred Forums had they became hated.

if thread IDs are implemented I'm fucking out of here.

What if trips could only used for one or two threads then made unsuable for a month? They could still be used for what they are ment to be for and it could make the attention whores fuck off or at least make them not as bad.

This is why we need to get rid of them. All they cause is derailment in a thread. They don't need their trip to disscus. Easier to remove the problem from the source

This, how many times has he done this already?

I didn't say you were necessarily wrong, but saying "he won't do shit" doesn't help anyone making points in this thread. Everyone posting here believes that something will probably be done; you saying it won't is unnecessary and pointless.

Moot just seems to me to be the typical Cred Forums poster. And you should go check out the Cred Forums generals and why trips leave a bad taste in my mouth. Got so bad I don't even lurk that board anymore even though I'm an avid sports fan.

>Based on what?
At least some people who shitpost on other boards post on their home boards as well. If that board got deleted they'd shitpost even harder everywhere else.
>Just accept people really hate you SJWs
What?

Proper moderation rules, not the mods or janitors doing whatever they want

Delete or Ban E-celebs threads, srsly this only incites an insane ammount of shitposting

I feel like it was more around 2011-2012

Arguably the first big wave of newfags was as early as 2007 but that was nowhere near as bad as what things have become, at most we just had people who were ignorant to how users around here conducted themselves and the original userbase was still large enough that most new people either fell in line or left after being told off.

Now that the majority of people don't care about post quality it's hard to try to force any kinds of standards via shaming/elitism. When one person is telling an idiot to lurk more 20 others are enabling him.

>changes goal posts
>posts stay in same place, just now look different?

Interesting tactic. What would this actually do to change the terms of the play?

Have the posts been changed to look like dicks?

>250 character minimum
Stupidest shit I've ever heard, please stop posting

There is not as many, but they are still round doing nothing much fucking up thread disscusion. Everytime one pops up , there is a guarentee of derailment innthat thread. Why not just remove them?

see

Make it mandatory to lurk either Cred Forums or Cred Forums for a few months for each new poster like most of us have done. Then open up the other boards.

make an e-celeb board and bring /vr/ back

Last time I remember he made a sticky thread on Cred Forums asking how to fix it, but then immediately fucked off but didn't close that fucking thread.
So now you have this 8000+ post that becomes impossible to open because of this sites shitty netcode.
And nothing came of that time

>Minimal characters

Great fucking idea OP, you dumb idiot. This is a IMAGEBOARD. Discussion is secundary.

>Thread IDs

Anybody pushing or thinking this will solve or improve anything are fucking stupid. It's just another layer of tripfaggotry that will encourage stupid self policing and circlejerking.

We don't need thread IDs, we need mods doing their fucking job, that's it.

>broken english

>This is why we need to get rid of them. All they cause is derailment in a thread. They don't need their trip to disscus. Easier to remove the problem from the source

I very rarely see tripfags as a problem. I've filtered a few, but the few that remain always post on the topic at hand and there's always one or so shitposters that have to reply to them.

I'm possibly in the minority here, maybe the only one willing to admit it, but there are a couple of tripfags I enjoy conversing with.

>Thread IDs
>minimal post length

>I want this board to be a place of intelligent, civilized discussion. We will build a community and it will be respected.

Ban phone posters? What if we prove we're posting from the shitter?

You're either tone-deaf to irony or genuinely weren't around for the early years of Cred Forums.

I'm not saying the site completely lacked sincere racism/sexism in its early days, but the alt-right political swing is very much a product of the last 3 or 4 years.

Early racist memes were rooted more in absurdism and shock comedy as opposed to political/social ideologies.

1. They have been inmthese threads quite a bit
2.if they were to become anonymous again, they wouldn't be able to act like attention whores when they are in a thread. Problem solved
3. You can blame anonymous all you want, but innreality that is utterly stupid to do so. How many people fall into tat group? Fucking thousands.

Also i don't even "shitpost" to tripfags. This is a thread about fixing shit and this is what I want fixed. Sorry if you see an arguement as shitposting

>Posting from the shitter

Can't you be without Cred Forums for 2 fucking minutes?

>bring back dubs
>remove word filters
Yeah, nah, that's like the opposite of "fixing" Cred Forums, unless /s4s/ is your idea of a good board. If anything add MORae word filters for nothing buzzwords.

>Console wars should be a banable offence.

They are, mods just don't enforce that rule because they would have to delete so many posts per minute it would be impossible.

Is he even still around?

During my work week I only browse /v from the shitter.

Ban Blizzard games.

Yes
He's especially found of /qa/ for some reason

MAKE IT STOP

EVERY DAY, AT LEAST 5 TIMES A DAY, FOR THE LAST YEAR.

THIS IS NOT VIDEOGAMES

PLEASE MAKE IT STOP.

BAN ALL YOUTUBE GAMING THREADS. ALL THEY DO IS ADVERTISE THEIR CHANNELS!

RULE 11

Then we're in agreement for thread ids?

If you think one fangroup is the sole provider of shitposting then you just need to sit down and have a breather

Ban all console wars threads. KOS.

Ban all NPD and sales topics threads.

Word filter NeoGAF and ban all links to that site. There is no site that ruins the fun of gaming for everyone more than NeoGAF

Ban all links to N4G click bait shit posting sites.

Ban all file name threads. That's Cred Forums tier level shit.

Ban all waifu and husband threads

At this point I just report rule violations as Illegal Content
I don't think it makes a difference
It doesn't matter
None of this matters

>I want this board to be a place of intelligent, civilized discussion
We have any other website for that. this is a place to dump our problems into.

Correct, not hard to see who you are talking to wothout labels

Definitely.

>- Thread IDs (by far most popular)
>- Removal of trip fags

These are the two best ideas.

Thread IDs are vital. Also, this is an image chan, not an old fashioned message board. Trip fags need to go.

i reported a youtube gaming thread as illegal content and i got a warning for misusing the report system.

the thread was banned, but still.

BUT WAIT I GOT AN IDEA

>WHEN WE HIT RULE BREAKING ON THE REPORT FUNCTION, LET US CHOOSE WHAT RULE THEY ARE BREAKING

WHY HASNT THIS BEEN DONE YET!?

True, but they make up the vast majority of shitposters.

>Word filter NeoGAF and ban all links to that site.
Do people even talk about NeoGAF much except to shit on them?

A good fucking question

New posters in individual threads are given a ID (5 charactesr iirc) in the name field that is unique to that thread only (going to a different thread gives the poster a different ID).

>Moot just seems to me to be the typical Cred Forums poster

In what sense? I wasn't under the impression that he cared much about comics or cartoons. Hell, Cred Forums always seemed like one of his more overlooked boards, despite how moderately popular it is.

>Tripfags have ruined Cred Forums

As someone who has never poked his head inside Cred Forums, I'll have to take your word for it. They've never been much of a problem around Cred Forums, Cred Forums, Cred Forums, or /x/.

>I feel like it was more around 2011-2012

I can see that. I'd say there was an even steeper decline after the GG bullshit, though. It's similar to how Cred Forums never recovered from Chanology.

Trips are okay, it's just fags like firstposter that fag it up.

Minimum post length is shit, people will just pad it with pasta or something.

>banning words
mcfucking kill yourself

>delete and ban more people
FUCK OFF

>bring back dubs
ok

All in all, only the last of your suggestions isn't shit.

If you think the rest are okay or good, fuck off back to /r/gaming

The second that site is mentioned a thread will always go to shit.

Any topic that starts with a link to neofags will automatically be shit.

Neofags also come here to shit post because their own board is so heavily censored and controlled. The entire site is a disease.

yeah, those threads are great...

Mootwo should make this a thing.

Oh, so basically poster IDs in Cred Forums?

Also go away tripfag

>ban phoneposters
Jesus, how fucking elitist can you get. This is why there's so many console wars threads, everyone has to exclude. Fuck off asshole

Thia. Thread IDs. A board for e-celebs wouldnt hurt either.

Triggered shit poster

Same here. Work, personal shit, vidya, Cred Forums on lunch and on the shitter. Couldn't pull it off without my phone. Yes, I miss the hell out of my old job where I got paid to fuck off here on the computer unsupervised, but we went out of business, and now I have a stupid real job.

>- 250 character minimal post length, 500 on OP (this is my own one, so it gets to go on top).
Yeah, great fucking idea. Can't wait for everyone to end their posts with "niggersniggersniggers" or "faggotsfaggotsfaggots" until they hit the quota.

>inb4 just ban these people!
It doesn't work like that.

Ban AAA game threads.

>e-celebs

Topics about these people should be banned site-wide.

>250 character minimal post length, 500 on OP (this is my own one, so it gets to go on top).
make this exclusive to Cred Forums pass. 100 characters max for non Cred Forums pass users. This helps curb shitposting
>Thread IDs
yes
>Removal of trip fags
does it matter? Its not like you can link email in the trip now
>Removal, blocking, filtering and/or bans of """bad""" words such as Cred Forums, reddit, SJW, shill,
alt-right, etc.
more senpai desu cuck filters? No thanks. SJW was also already filtered to "spooky scary skeleton" during halloween last year but rarely anyone used it anyways so the filter was removed. Most stuff is just buzzwords FotM stuff that wears out eventually anyways. Its meme culture.
>Just a lot of deleting and banning in general (ban phoneposters, ban >20 year olds)
traffic keeps this site up and running.
>bring back dubs
I don't know why they removed them to begin with.. unless people got too cancerous with dub threads

No you fuck off, phoneposters are worse than underageB&s

SHOULD BE A SITE WIDE THING!

I have not seen a thread derailment involving tripfags in ages. I see several tripfags regularly and either nothing happens or one user tries to derail the thread over their presence and then goes ignored.

The only ones I remember seeing recently are Boco, Reliable Ecchi and Evil Emperor. They tend to contribute to whatever thread they're in.

For frame of reference, barneyfag is an user. How do you respond to that?

Are you saying that because Anons are many, they are allowed to shit post? Fuck off cunt, you are the problem.
>It's ok when user does it!"

I might give you a few more (You)'s after this just so you can fairly respond to my questions, but the anti-tripfag crowd are obviously just shit posters who think the cure to cancer is to cover the whole board in shit and piss and vomit.

Pic related, unfortunately, this is you.

>I don't know why they removed them to begin with.. unless people got too cancerous with dub threads
That's exactly why they removed them. Same with desu senpai although dubs were way worse.

This is the best idea so far. Often I wonder if the mods will get why I am reporting something because the options are so limited.

Wouldn't it make sense to post YouTube threads on /vg/?

How to fix Cred Forums: Permaban the OP of this thread, because this is the worst post I think I've ever read in my entire life.

This. I want to be able to report for spam or some other shit. When I report for "rule breaking" that could fucking mean anything, including nothing at all, especially since the mods make up their own rules and choose what rules they want to enforce.

>image chan

How new are you? Serious question.

Still need better mods and public executions. When someone is banned auto-filter all replies to it, if OP was banned then thread is put into autosage. Posters still get their "Mods = Gods" out of their system while not appearing openly.

Agreed, that would make a lot of sense. As it is now, illegal content is extremely high priority and then because of the number of rules, general rule breaking is much, much lower. would be nice to specify what rule is being broken.

this

If Hiro does anything he needs to bring back the text boards.

I believe he's referring to 2ch and it's text board.

We shouldn't stop with Cred Forums. Every site should ban phoneys.

You tunnel-eyed fucks are fagging up site design across the whole internet.

Ban phoneposting but not phone browsing and holy christ get some mods who do their fucking jobs jesus.

BRING BACK SNACKS

Do we really need to limit characters like twitter? We don't need faggots posting shorthand so they can type a whole paragraph

but i cant help it, i'm a small dicked jap boy.

Also I love my mommy :

Bareney fag is a mod issue. If they did their job and kept on top of it then it wouldnt be an issue.

>It's ok when user does it!"
Not what i was saying, I am saying that it is easier to control the few rather than the mass

Also, name calling is a sign of immaturity

Ban all Cred Forumstards who try and derail threads

Thread ids

More janitors to clean up shitposts

Force people to move to /vg/ for specific threads

Barneyfag is why phoneposting needs to go. He's been range-banned before and it's done nothing. moot shut lanced jack the fuck down after he dodged a range-ban back in the day, but the current mods don't do anything about him now.

Go back to gamefaqs kid.

Sorry reddit. But you can go back there if you want to be coddled. Grow the fuck up and ignore it you child.

Ban e-celeb threads
Ban phoneposters

Ironic shitposting is still shitposting
/s4s/ pls go

I find it funny how much tripfags upset some anons but really if you actually think about it there's no reason other than attention whoring to be a tripfag except contributing something and contributors on this fucking site are all but dead.

>Ban phoneposting

Absolutely, positively, mother fucking THIS

Bans are meaningless now that we have mobile phone shit posters.

combine Cred Forums and /vg/ and double the number of threads allowed on mega Cred Forums

I can't imagine a future in which Snacks would even entertain the notion of returning to Cred Forums.

And if he ever did, I'm sure he would just start trolling the shit out of everyone with a permaban spree.

are you fucking stupid

/YouTube/ board. Youtube is huge now and the amount of posting that goes on here could be mitigated by a Youtube board.

They won't do it though, too many people use Cred Forums from a phone. Mostly teens and kiddies but still. They'd lose like 42% of traffic to the site.

>public executions
More than enough to make me happy.

Your post started out really well until it devolved into blatant tripfag bait.

Am I missing something here? You seriously want to ban everyone who posts from work / on the shitter / in the waiting room just to nick out the few who use it to get around their ban? Fuck that.

He still fucks around on his weird radio show. Someone willing to be a public image and showing what real power abuse could be and then just tooling that back into normal, stricter mods might be enough to curb cries of "no fun allowed" while also getting rid of people that it offends. The completely relaxed attitude towards what is/isn't banned, what's just deleted, etc isn't creating the problem, but it's allowing the problem to worsen.

Just red through half the thread...
It's time to leave....

u cant trigger us normie

No, phoneposters are underage and normies. Ban them all for that reason not because they ban evade.

Cred Forums losing traffic isn't a bad thing, you idiots. Christ, half the problems this site has are because of the huge influx of people. If being able to view but not post from a phone is what's actually the tipping point for you, then you're probably a faggot anyway.

You didn't answer my question. People who use terms like image chan, the chan or 4channer are the ones generally from gamefaqs/reddit/etc.

Just letting you know it's an image board and always has been.

You don't belong here. Leave.

No

I've exclusively posted from my phone since I had the option to back in 2010. Even when it was still just the original layout. You still consider me a normie?

it would also migrate all of Cred Forums complaining about youtube there instead of everywhere

You think normies are browsing Cred Forums outside of their home? I'm a fucking husk and even I don't do that.

>autosage

Ree!

Go back to gamefags newfag.

>I've exclusively posted from my phone
Why though? That sounds horrible.

this is the most obvious fucking bait i have seen on Cred Forums in a long fucking time. congrats

>immediate decline of traffic with hope of coming back up
>slow decline with no hope of going back
Yeah, I suppose Mootwo would go with option 2

And? You act like traffic is somehow a good thing by itself on a site that isn't trying to make money but is just a place to discuss shit.

Cause my computer used to be absolute dogshit then it melted on me and I've grown accustomed to it.

There is currently no way to tell what any real problems are beyond the moderation and the userbase.
Purge the lazy/biased/whatever-the-fuck mods and janitors, replace them with people that are actually actively involved with the community in a way that isn't cancer, get rid of phone posting, see what happens.

Bringing back dubs after such changes might not be a terrible idea if only because they are an effective method of killing a shit thread, but Cred Forums would have to prove it's ability to self-police first.

> ban phoneposters

What is this meme?

Character length is stupid, sometimes all you need is a few words, or no words and an image. Quality discussion doesn't come from length, it comes from not shitposting. Plus people wouldn't actually change how they typed, they'd just add gibberish in spoiler tags at the bottom of the post. Same as the robot on /R9K/.

Banning phoneposters would curb the problems by a lot, but the loss of userbase might be too much. Instead they should ban mobile data IP addresses, phoneposting from wifi is convient but from data it allows you to be ban free and do all sorts of terrible things. Australian mobile IP's are already banned from making threads, just extend that to everyone and see what happens.

thanks

>laptops and tablets don't exist, right?

Sometimes I wonder why I spend time replying to literal children who ignore all post content and just throw criticisms back at people thinking they are insults even when it is making no sense in any way.

There's never a reason to phonepost.
If you're on the toilet, take the 5 minutes to finish your dump. And if you post on Cred Forums in public you should seriously consider to kys.

I don't give a fuck what shitty hardware you're using to post, I care that it has made ban evading even MORE trivial than it normally is. It needs to go.

>character limit
fine but 250 seems like a bit too much.

>removal of trip fags
fuck you. trip fags have been on this site longer than you have. i hate them but they're as much a part of Cred Forums now as dubs and furfags

fuck you.

wtf did they do yo you?

> ban dubs
And that i agree with

Fix the report queue. There was a foot fetish thread yesterday and yet despite all my reports for the offtopic posts it took like 5 hours to get deleted.

Yeah but where you're aiming to knock out a chunk of the population has nothing to do with who those people are. In fact, it's a hell of a lot easier to post from your phone at work and on the shitter than it is to post from your phone at school so I'd say it's aimed entirely in the wrong direction. Underage kids are always either at home where they could use their PC, in school, or mackin on buck toothed horse bitches.

ban everything I don't like

>ban >20 year olds

dude are you fucking stupid you want this site to be full of cancerous teenagers? the best threads that actually contain discussion are the older games. who the fuck do you think is discussing them pisshead. The 15 year olds?

Then ban posting from a mobile IP. If you're on a WiFi connection then it's fine.

This desu

IPs, how do they work?
>no silver bullets

The only time I've ever seen the mods actually enforce and ban people for the "No generals outside of /vg/" rule was for Undertale. That's it.

THIS, minus the filtering.

It shouldn't be considered at all, it won't make any difference. You simply change a character and you can still use those words, f a m

Started out really well but devolved into bait? I criticized both people who get mad over tripfags when they didn't even say anything to get mad over as well as using trips for no reason. If you think one is good and other is bait then you seem pretty biased.

Kind of like those people who watch a show that harshly critiques games and laugh it up but then when their favorite game is critiqued they make a comment like "I used to love your show but now you have done it! How dare you!"

I could get behind this as a phone poster. Since I never leave my house anyways.

I don't usually post on Cred Forums from home because that's when I jack off and play video games.

kYs homeposter.

People who space like that are probably on mobile, not a habit left over from Reddit. On mobile it looks good because it's so much narrower, thus each "paragraph" has a nice square asthetic. But it looks like utter shit on PC. Rule of thumb is to make each paragraph twice as long as your initial instinct to press enter.

Have a Reddit sign in and people who actually do it get permabanned

>live in year 2016
>bumfuck nowhere is the only place left without wifi
>that, and stralia

The way that mobile data works is that it shuffles you through IPs constantly whereas your house has either a dedicated one or a dynamic one that gets changed as needed/on certain commands. It's always been "just unplug your modem lol" easy to dodge a ban, but at least it was something mildly inconvenient and rangebans meant something. Now, you just toggle airplane mode on and off and you're ready to shitpost again. It needs to be fixed somehow.

What if there was wildly inconsistent moderation. I don't want 24/7 nazi mod mode, but just enough of that so it strikes the fear of god into shit posters.

This place was literally founded on shitposting. Fuck off.

Wow this thread sure went to shit and it didn't even start out strong.

>This place was literally founded on shitposting

Nice to know you've only been here for the last few months. Hope that high school is going well!

>There's never a reason to phonepost.

The rules that say no NSFW and no garbage outside of Cred Forums are really ill defined and can happen at any time. Phone posting is useful when you're worried a mod might be in a pissy mood and ban you for something stupid.

That's why they need some proper moderations rules, and not something that's up to the mood of the mod

Range bans

>Not remembering Cred Forums from before Cred Forums exile

It's going great, queer! Thanks for asking!

>ban phone posters
Why would you want to do this?
Some of us have actual jobs that require us to be away from our computers for a good part of the day.

Uneducated question. Would phone nanning ne possible? Donthey have seperate ip structure or somthing?

- 250 character minimal post length, 500 on OP (this is my own one, so it gets to go on top).

this is a fucking terrible idea

They are not ill defined, they are just ill enforced. Just because you can get away with breaking those rules most of the time doesn't mean it's weird or the rules are confusing when a mod happens to catch you.

There's nothing confusing about don't fucking post non-vidya or don't fucking post porn and shit.

>Only shits for five minutes
>Calls for bans

Cred Forums has been literal shit for years. None of this can be blamed on Cred Forums.

Then your epic shitpost can wait until you get home, faggot. You don't NEED to post on Cred Forums every waking minute especially when you're at work.

You shouldn't be on Cred Forums at work anyway, you fucking idiot.

I'm hardly Cred Forums, but carriers do have certain groups of IPs dedicated to them, so it's possible in theory. The problem is that I don't know if there would be an easy enough way to implement it that Hiro would consider. If it's too much work, he'd probably just say fuck it and ignore the whole idea.

I know this is extremely specific but for some reason the ISP I use for my PC is blacklisted from posting, so phoneposting is the only way I have to post. Yes I've sent feedback, they never answer.
I know how to conceal my phoneposting though, you'd never notice.

The first step to fixing Cred Forums is banning pic related. Source needs to be banned from Cred Forums and all its derivatives. Name one good thing that Source has brought us. You can't.

Word filtering is fantastic. I almost couldn't bring myself to browse Cred Forums when cuck was in full swing. Tbh, and senpai saved the board. If idiots want to find other words to say at least it promotes a cycle or evolving of culture. Sitting around jerking each other off with the same stupid childish insults is fucking mind breaking.

Does anybody have a link to or screenshots of all the posts where Hiro says all these threads are allowed?

I wanna make a thread on /hr/ but I want proof it's okay to make so it doesn't get deleted.

Ok, but obvious Cred Forums bait threads are not helping either. That made it worse

How are they NOT ill defined. One of the rules just says no furry. What the fuck does that mean? Taken at face value that means no anthro characters at all. But bans for that are rare. So where the hell is the line? Am I not allowed to say anything remotely sexual about a furry character even if it's a video game character? Because it just seems like its just based on the mods mood.

- If there is a board that covers most or part of subject matter than it needs to go there. Nintendo toys need to be on /toy/ as an example.
- Obvious attempts to skirt around board rules need to be banned. "What is the hillary clinton of video games"
-Clarify what is and isn't allowed on this board. Are we allowed to talk about game journalists or game review sites? Are video game e-celebs an okay topic? It's fine if not but grey areas create confusion.

The rules need to be well defined and enforced. Treat Cred Forums users like the bunch of sock eating toddlers we are. We have plenty to argue over within video game culture. We don't need to be arguing about what is or isn't shitposting. What is or isn't allowed.

Cred Forums has been shit ever since it became the dumping ground for new people. The average internet cunt doesn't bother with Cred Forums because it's such a clusterfuck, but Cred Forums has lightly defined rules and most people dabble in video games nowadays. Everytime there's a renewed interest in Cred Forums, those people end up on Cred Forums. 2 years ago, it was GG. Now, it's Cred Forums bringing people in. So Cred Forums is the current face of the problem, yeah.

I think it's about time weeaboo/weeb were filtered. That word has been used forever now since the original filters and because people love being misinformed it has become a very general insult too. Cuck, autist and weeaboo are the worst offenders of "Can't these people think of fucking anything new?".

I think you need to read what I said again

>Things to consider:
>>blocking or filtering users with Reddit cookies

Mods that aren't retarded would be a good start.

>be in networking
>remember text is low-context communication
>mental facepalm
>doesn't actually need networking explained
Again, hardened shit-posters - where there's a will there's a way. Sure you might take out people posting without wifi, but wifi with fixed border routers are all over the godamn place. enter just about any building in a first world country any you're going to have some sort of issue. and what of college students, or anyone that's typically on a MAN/CAM is going to be shooting out a single IP. it's gonna be hard to pin down people using smartphones to post

This is tertiary at best and /e-celebs/ at worst. Some fucko getting robbed while playing a video game isn't Cred Forums anymore than him getting robbed while reading a book would be /lit/.

Ive talked with the mods on the IRC enough to know that's not happening.

That thread wasn't vidya related.

Are you implying they should have deleted that earlier, or never? Sorry dude you never know these days.

>gets deleted fucking 500 posts in

>this thread is still up -

jesus fucking christ

>You now can only post under certain conditions which are convenient for people who are not you
>This is so we can attempt and fail at enforcing the bans place on the few people who actually get banned

It should've been deleted much earlier.

What the fuck is the point of deleting a thread 500 posts in?

Why even bother having rules?

>I don't know how shitposting works
Good intention though

It should be a rule that the OP picture to a thread must be related to video games.

Would solve 70% of Cred Forums's problems.

>- 250 character minimal post length, 500 on OP (this is my own one, so it gets to go on top).
>- Removal, blocking, filtering and/or bans of """bad""" words such as Cred Forums, reddit, SJW, shill, alt-right, etc.
>- Just a lot of deleting and banning in general (ban phoneposters, ban >20 year olds)

Can you please just fuck off back to whatever shithole you came from?

Simple, ban PC users.

PC as a platform was snowballing toward a serious level of shit before greenlight, it happened when the focus of PC gaming began shifting away from actual PC games and onto graphics cards and AAA multiplats. That's when the true death of PC gaming slowly began, greenlight was mere nails in the coffin by then even if it used to be a pretty good program in it's early days, perhaps valve was smart in to capitalize on it, they probably knew the inevitable was coming so why not make money off it.

Now a days PC gaming is a empty husk of what it once was, I wish it stayed true to it's roots but people don't understand why the separation between console and PC gaming is important and seemingly want to turn PC's into modded consoles. In an ideal world the separation would have allowed PC games to actually grow and thrive even despite piracy, and consoles would be the powerhouse for AAA third and first party exclusives and would've greatly benefited from single spec targeting optimization.

However instead of having the very best of both platforms and having two thriving and vastly different and unique libraries that are designed for and rightfully belong on their respective platforms, we have a PC platform that is now dead because it has been completely raped and damaged beyond repair by idiots who've tried to turn it into a console and we have a console industry with a vastly reduced game output due to the fragmented userbase of PC users who want to play console games on PC while leaving it's own exclusives have to fucking rot and die.

Instead of understanding the purpose and economics of both platforms and uniting to push each platform forward to it's very best we ended up with this shit. Modern PC users are objectively and truly the literal cancer of gaming and it pisses me off beyond words. They killed PC gaming and now they're also trying to kill consoles too, I just don't understand why PC users do what they do.

Don't change it. Hide threads you don't like you assblasted faggots. Let people have fun, is that too hard of a fucking concept? Who cares if it isn't strictly vidya related sometimes? Get the stick out of your ass

...

look on /qa/. There are multiple threads, some are archived.

Everyone knows that 90% of all shitposting comes from phone posters.

Furry refers to either anthro porn or people who jerk it to anthro porn, not characters that are anthro in general. It's one of those things that has gotten unclear because people would overuse the word so it got a more general meaning.

You are right in that maybe the rule should be updated for newfriends.

You can't plan around hardened shitposters because they're pretty rare. What plagues the board more than anything are casual shitposters. People who are bored or just found a new meme and want to show it off. Any idiot being able to dodge a ban just by posting on his phone just enables this kind of cancer and could fairly easily be stopped.

FIX Cred Forums???????????

AHAHHAHAH THIS IS HOW YOU FIX FUCKING Cred Forums I HAVE IT ALL DOWN PAT

vocaroo.com/i/s0a03aIYtRd9

>ban the majority of Cred Forums users

go back to gamefaqs newfag. you don't belong here.

That is literally clickbait tier shit in thread form.

>Mods that aren't retarded would be a good start.
You have to be a special kind of retard to 'work' as a mod here.
I feel like the mods need some sort of tard wrangler to check over their moderation every so often. Ensure they're actually doing something and it's consistent.

Filter the word 'reddit'

People throw that shit around far too freely now, anything they don't like is reddit

We need an e-celeb containment board. NOW!

PROTIP: good bait can be outrageous, but should have internally consistant logic without self-contradiction.

You're getting there though. Keep at it.

This post is the type of Cred Forums cancer that needs to be moderated.

Fuck off. That is the most elitist shit I have ever read, banning people from posting from a certain platform is literally retarded.
This thread is full of SEKRIT NERDY KLUB fags and it really upsets me. can't we just have a fucking fun board? I know this board doesn't like to have fun, but maybe step outside of your fucking comfort zone every once in a while

The OP of that thread didn't even bother to put "gaming channel" in his post and mods won't delete it even though he's not even pretending that it's vidya. For fuck's sake.

They did two years ago newfag, people just used words similar like ribbit. Its almost like wordfilters are retarded.

If my memory serves me right, cuck and nu-male are very recent things, didn't see them too much in 2015. It has just exploded everywhere.

>guy standing reacts like it was a gut shot
>everyone else gets blown away
>no textures to indicate damage to the interior except the potted plant explodes
>two of the chairs don't budge even though they had people in them while the rest of them explode
>also the hostage gets up and is fine even though everyone else is dead
Jesus this looks like fucking trash. I know the game isn't out yet but isn't it coming out soon?

Your fun board is here:

Oh ok. Yeah it's fucking bullshit, there's no way they noticed that late, so there must have been at least one mod intentionally keeping it alive.
>Replying to pasta
Also that's stupid, I don't think phone posts amount to more than 5% of the total posts, and there're many more shitposts than that.

Found the Reddittor.

Elect Trump, Build Wall

It should not be taking this long for to get deleted. It's been an hour.

>- bring back dubs
Fuck you and your fucking meme board culture. Also, stop using those shitty ass lazy meme fishes, just use an anime face or a lol cat.

Cuck was around plenty in 2015
Nu-male is a more recent creation, but it's still shitty and overused

It comes from phone posters because of how much easier it is for them avoid a ban.

agreed, go ahead an do it. I still have my doubts that it's actually going to curb it. most of the fuckards are going to be using a highshool wifi, or the likes. Any two-bit hipster at a starbucks is going to be able to shit post with impunity not even knowing how they're doing it

>>- 250 character minimal post length, 500 on OP (this is my own one, so it gets to go on top).

This is fucking stupid as hell. This isn't a fucking book report. Say what you want to say and take however long you need to say it. This would just make people make the same fucking posts but padded out with loads of useless bullshit to hit the limit.

>- Thread IDs (by far most popular)

This would probably be a good thing.

>- Removal of trip fags

Also probably a good idea. Thread IDs remove the actual purpose of tripcodes so if Thread IDs were implemented it would be nothing but attention whores.

>- Removal, blocking, filtering and/or bans of """bad""" words such as Cred Forums, reddit, SJW, shill, alt-right, etc.

This is also fucking stupid as hell. This is always a bad idea and just encourages people to find ways to get around it. This problem is already in decline and pulling something like this would just make it worse again.

>- Just a lot of deleting and banning in general (ban phoneposters, ban >20 year olds)

Excessive deleting and banning just pisses people off. Best case scenario you get an awful lot of threads and posts trying to dodge around the rule, worst case scenario you actually manage to kill the board by driving away huge swathes of people.

>- bring back dubs

Not sure about this one, I do kind of miss them but there's also a reason why they're gone.

I feel like it was already prominent in 2015 but it has just become more and more popular.

...

ban off topic shit like this

>a lol cat
mate

How to fix Cred Forums: Remove all mods, users are responsible for ignoring or hiding shit they don't like. Simple.

The solution to everything is more moderation, right? Grow a fucking spine you pussy. The whole premise of Cred Forums involves that discussion isn't strictly moderated. Just because someone isn't being turboautist and dedicating themselves to having no fun (as you insinuated in your post) doesn't mean they don't have a place here. Fuck off of my board you newfag fucking idiot bastard communist

u mad bro?

I prefer this over having bias mods. Lesser of the two evils.

umm you can't hate on this game or you're a racist

This is an example of why we need clear rules and mods who sticky temporary changes to rules.

We're allow one thread on Cred Forums to discuss changes to Cred Forums. No need to get your mario undies in a twist.

>Just because someone isn't being turboautist
You're being a turbo autist righ tnow actually.
You're just irrationally and repetitively owning yourself to a pointless defense just because it's your personal one. Not that its positive for you or anyone else.

The premise of Cred Forums is being able to speak anonymously about what you want, not lack of moderation. There are rules and different boards for a fucking reason. If you want to shitpost or post a dank mem, fuck off to Cred Forums or /s4s/ since that's what those boards where created to do.

Why can't we have gets? Of course they can explode, but they're funny and memorable. Why are we dedicating ourselves to making this board as fucking boring as possible?

Anyone with a router can flip mac clone on and change one digit to get a new IP.

It's not hard for anybody.

may i direct you to Voat

you

why not keep v the sweltering shithome it is and instead mage /gv/ or good vidya and put all the good changes there. we certainly don't have enough vidya boards as is.

ban off topic shit like this.

slightly irritated

>That is the most elitist shit I have ever read
>This thread is full of SEKRIT NERDY KLUB fags and it really upsets me.

The only reason Cred Forums survived for so long was because they didn't put up with the bullshit Cred Forums lets in.
Anything that makes Cred Forums more elitist is welcome. If you don't like it you should get out.

Cred Forums's backwash is still more tolerable than Meta General: Newfag Edition threads like this one.

No, you literally just contradicted. Get discussion can ONLY take place under loos moderation. News flash, if you can't handle retarded shit or memes, you probably don't belong here. Maybe learn how to filter shit you don't like while you're busy being this autistic.

There is nothing wrong with Cred Forums
If you see shitty threads, don't participate in them.
Cred Forums is actually pretty healthy these days, we have vidya discussion every day now. Sure, there is drama bullshit too, but again, you can make a choice to not fucking participate in those

what the fuck is this shit this is just a reddit clone

Only because we know nothing is actually going to change from these threads.

It's the 8ch to Reddit's Cred Forums.

I've been here for a while, just because you want some SEKRIT KLUB where nothing changes or develops doesn't mean others do. Cred Forums stayed relatively low profile because watching anime is a hell of a lot less mainstream than vidya, and you fucking know it.

Reminding you faggots that, according to most of you, this thread you are ACTIVELY POSTING IN is off topic.

Tripfags are cancer and tripcodes are useful only for the OP mostly, so why don't we add an optional "OP label" like "OP-thread-352352269"?

If you want the optional label just tick a checkbox when making a thread.

I don't even care for tripfags or nameidiots since I filter them with 4chanX anyway but their fucking fans are insufferable "niggarrell this XD" "loltears that!!!"

Retarded logic of most posters here. It boils down to beingnoldfags most of the time

Cred Forums is notorious for having very self-moderating users. They're a bunch of weeb fucks, but their board quality is miles better than ours. Cred Forums gets less traffic than Cred Forums, but it's twice the shithole. Popularity is a component, but not the answer.

It's fine if it's productive, no need to lump everything offtopic together into one "should get deleted" basket.

> 250 character minimal post length, 500 on OP (this is my own one, so it gets to go on top).

you fucked it up already, someone start a new thread

Literally allowed currently according to Hiro, fuck off.

Not everyones a neet loser like yourself

Unpluging ypur modem is as easy as airplane mode. Literally takes the same time. Unless your fat and can't walk properly

This is why Hiro's post should always be in the OP.

Not everyone has access to their own modem, or a dynamic IP, or can afford to cut it off every few minutes just for shitposting.

>he thinks banning/filtering words has any effect
>he doesn't know what a euphemism treadmill is

Do you even know how the word weeaboo became the standard word for wannabe Japanese?

We need emojis

It worked with desu desu.

Not him but i normally browse on my breaks. Is that such a bad thing? Phoneposting is just literally the lastest 'newfag, redditor, tumblr Cred Forums falseflag

>>he thinks banning/filtering words has any effect
baka desu senpai

>Youtube thread is still up

Mods are clearly being cunts. That's what happens when you recruit shitposters as mods.

>- 250 character minimal post length, 500 on OP (this is my own one, so it gets to go on top).

No, this is the dumbest idea

>- Thread IDs (by far most popular)

This is the best Idea

>- Removal of trip fags

This would be good along with the above idea, remove name field as well

>- Removal, blocking, filtering and/or bans of """bad""" words such as Cred Forums, reddit, SJW, shill, alt-right, etc.

People can filter themself if they so desire

>- Just a lot of deleting and banning in general (ban phoneposters, ban >20 year olds)

Sorry, this is the stupidest idea, this just enforces "muh secret club" mentality

>- bring back dubs

No, infact, get posting should be banned altogether.

You're so addicted to Cred Forums that browsing but not posting is somehow not enough?

You need to kill yourself.

>ban phoneposters
I guess you want no one to use Cred Forums

No it doesnt. Shitposting was around before phones. Explain that

But dedicated shitposters are. How do you not understand that. You remove phoneposting, the fuckers will find a new way. You are literally chasing a shitposting dragon

I could say the same to you? You must be addicted pretty hard to go home AND post!

So we're supposed to ignore the problem since they'll find another way?

You don't need to use toilet paper and toilet paper can be used in arson crimes so no more toilet paper for you. What are you addicted to not having shit on your hand or what?

What's this about phone posters? As in posting from your phone? So you nerds actually sit at your PC and browse Cred Forums? I play video games when I'm at my PC I browse Cred Forums when I'm taking a shit or at work.

Well done user. You figured it out. Now if everyone else could, we wouldn't have a problem

You can still post on a computer or if your mobile device is on a dedicated source of WiFi. Why in god's name do you HAVE to be able to post while on the bus?

You need to kys.

Because people actually go outside you neet shit. You should be playing games when you are at home

Posting from your phone on Wi-Fi =/= Phone Posting

Posting from your phone on Mobile Data = Phone Posting

>devote your life at home to Cred Forums!
You first

Ban everything I don't like.

Ban all waifu threads

If the government wanted to ban toilet paper to stop arson crimes, would you be ok with it?

make Cred Forums nsfw
literally no reason for any board to be blue desu

is it really that hard to play and post at the same time?

Stick to making bad food analogies.

>he unironically posts on Cred Forums outside of his house

I bet you're one of those spcial kids who spouts memes to his equally retarded friends.

Now thats addiction. Check yourself

this
underage shouldn't be browsing
and fuck anyone that browses in public/at work
they deserve to be fired

>baseless assumption
Im embbarrassed for both of us

Not that guy, but you're missing the point so hard I don't even know anymore. You can post from any place you fucking want as long as you don't shitpost.

>ban >20 year olds

You mean Ban everyone older than 20?

Hiro don't give a shit. Cred Forums is a toy to him. A collector item.

You need are janitors/mods who do their fucking jobs. This place doesn't have a lot of rules. It doesn't need them if you enforce the ones that are there. The main problem is Cred Forums is just a battleground for crossboard shitpost wars.

Crack the fuck down on off topic. That alone would be sufficient.

i wasn't the guy he was initially talking to, i was just confused that he was making the argument that you should spend 100% of your time at home playing video games and doing nothing else.

Too bad you'll never understand the irony of your post.

Adding nsfw to Cred Forums would just be the death of the board. 15 pages of video game porn. I want to actually talk about video games.

>Cred Forums - videogames
holy fuck how new are you?

>There are people who genuinely think dubs wouldn't have killed gamergate and other shit storms cold

Be 100% because I am I really don't think any shit storm of the past 3 years could have survived dubs being around.

We can't have thread IDs if people can simply post on their cellphone or unplug their router. It's useless. It's supposed to prevent samefagging, but it's as easy as avoiding a ban, which is pretty darn easy especially with cellphones. Ban cellphone posting first if you want to do that.

Make a board for sonyggers. Everyone hates them and they think they're so high and mighty.

There is no fixing. The majority of the board doesn't want to fix the primary problem

Politics tards. I'm not going to say Cred Forums. I'm gonna say ANYONE bringing up anything remotely political needs to go.

This shit makes so many games almost impossible to discuss

>BF1
>MAFIA 3
>Watchdogs 2
>Civ 6
>Subnautica

This is why some just spend their time shitposters now. Cant talk about most games

>Ban people older than 20
Fucking wha

ban anyone that uses anime images, they are usually used by shitposters

Can't discuss games like Fallout 4 without oldfarts shitting things up because they never adapted to anything newer than point & click garbage.

Wasn't watchdogs just shitty in general though?

or
>ban anyone that DOESN'T use anime images, they are usually shitposters

>Thread ID
>Live chat with mods
>Youtube threads to be legal
>Ban Cred Forums & Cred Forums edge lords and bring back old Cred Forums people like Donkey Kong
>Ban for Trip hating; They literally do nothing wrong and are often part of the best moments in Cred Forums
>Ban of literally whos posting
>Twitter banned unless it related to vidyas (example: Company tweeting about game should be ok; Some let's streamer saying he hates x shouldn't be)

Protip: You're not supposed to browse Cred Forums at all if you're underage, not just red boards. Porn isn't videogames, you can post videogame porn elsewhere.

this is what i'm saying
why the fuck do blue boards even exist?

Ban cellphone posting
Rangeban e-celeb and frogposters. That'll get rid of a shit ton of underage people.

Because porn is all-consuming, any and all non-porn discussion will be bumped off the board by porn.

Not everyone wants to see Bloodborne waifu futa horse cock thread #14521 when talking about vidyas user.
If you want porn just go to /aco/ or /h/

Do you seriously believe that's a major issue that needs to be addressed?

you can talk about vidya and have lewd stuff
we have lots of threads that work just fine with lewds
they are usually the best threads

Why would anyone here talk about Watchdogs 2 for anything other than Cred Forums shitposting?

Because they are few and far between, if anything, nsfw Cred Forums would ruin the chance to have such miracles.

thread ID so we can finally have one good ffxv thread since 2013

literally happen every day every hour
you just miss them, because the janny deletes them

While I'll take your word on it, those threads are often in moderation, containing few lewd pictures. The problem comes in when the whole board becomes nsfw.
If that were to happen, there wouldn't be any reason NOT to have multiple threads from users asking for peach rule 34 pics or whatever.

How would we know when the game is not out? The issue is the vast majority of shit n those threads are directly politics related

>Whining about SJWs
>Whining about the characters race
>Whining that the villains trigger you because politics

Can't even have a Dead or Alive thread. They're nothing but soft-core porn basically. Almost no gameplay discussion. They're also just generals. "Lewd" discussion is nothing but picture dumps. And while I don't mind fapping, there are boards made just for porn. This is a board for discussion.

(Serious question)

How do I get more (You)s? I try to make really controversial posts but somehow people always seem to see through my ruse. What are some posts I can make that will get me lots of (You)s?

In that case you're talking about the usual porn shitposting derails, get fucked.

>containing few lewd pictures
you have never been in a lewd thread have you?
they are the best
have tons of lewd AND discussion

Because there are people who frequent Cred Forums that want to discuss it?

post "do thing or mother will die" images

Actually, thanks for bringing this up. This should become a bannable offense ASAP.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone say that they were looking forward to it.

Copy posts which got lots of (You)s.

>music threads
>people post osts with no lyrics
literally should be perma bannable

...

But the posts that get lots of (You)s are usually one-off posts that are only popular within the context of that particular thread.

I don't want to post the 'your mother may die in her sleep' stuff, I consider that cheap shitposting. I want something that seems original and genuine.

Then you are a pretty silly person trying to justify his shitposting

>all posts must now have a pic/webm attached
>gifs are now banned
i'm getting really sick of seeing whole threads without any pictures
this is a fucking imageboard
also fuck gifs they make my eyes bleed now

Then go somewhere that allows discussion and porn? Shall I begin making the trash /NTR/ general here because "I wanna discuss it with my Cred Forumsros

What exactly is wrong with cellphone posting? I do it on breaks from work, when not home or lying down in bed before sleep. I bring actual discussion and shitpost rarely. Why stop my ability to do that simply for using a phone?

/trash/ is dead compared to Cred Forums though

But what if I don't have an image related to the topic. You don't want me posting off topic things now do you?

I think the point is to ban cellphone networks, which greatly facilitate ban evasion.
Phones posting from WiFi will not be affected.

make some content
go find a pic that is related
like fuck i'm sick of seeing threads with only a op picture

>greatly facilitate ban evasion.
you know you can just reset your ip and cache and that takes like 1 minute right?

As much as we hate to admit it, a proportion of this site is underage and a little stupid. Turning airplane mode on and off is far more obvious and easy than resetting your IP and clearing the ban cookie every time you're bopped with the hammer.

Sadly, a cure for autism just doesn't exist yet

>make ALL boards yellow
>have a option as op to mark threads as l e w d
>users can hide lewd threads in settings or from the catalog
i've just fixed 99% of the problem for every board
