Video games are technology.

Maybe create a consumer trash board and move all shills/consumerism generals there
Also move tech support to /wsr/

Don't allow graphics cards threads & tell the /v/ kiddies here that Windows is objectively fucking trash

gaymers are some of the most tech impaired idiots I've met

Ban windows users.
If an IP reported a Windows useragent, it's banned forever.

>>59234626
Forget the /v/ problem. How do we solved the shitskin problem?
/g/ is the only board where you are guaranteed to find broken English and people taking obvious, subterranean IQ baits in every thread

Simple solution: mutually exclusive post timers.

Post on /v/? 1 week cooldown for posting on /g/
Post on /g/? 1 week cooldown for posting on /v/

Filter "7700k" into "Ryzen" and vice versa. Similarly with "Intel" and "AMD". Than switch it on and off randomly throughout the day.

it should all routed to a /consume/.

/pol/ is a problem too, just like /v/ both are full of underage retards

We have a thread about this image AT LEAST once every week. Yet it isn't even real

And the image that she actually posted on her instagram (A YEAR AGO NOW) is what you get when you google "programming humor" click the first result to go to /r/ProgrammingHumor, click top upvoted of all time, and then open the first result

We also keep seeing these same 3 stupid stock photos of people holding a soldering iron by the hot part.

I'm requesting someone make a counter-meme. It would have a collage of these /g/-core cancer memes and be labeled "neckbeard starter pack" with a strawman drawing of a stereotypical /v/ NEET who wants to "make gaymes" and posts on /g/

>>59234626

maybe we offload them to /biz/

/biz/ is pretty dead and they should circlejerk about their consumerist meme fantasies there ... it would be a nice addition to /biz/ ;)

they could also learn something about economics there and why X company doesnt go out of business because weebs buy a few cpus from company Y.

Not so long ago we had like 4 desktop threads every single fucking day with the same people complimenting their riced arch installations.
One day someone got pissed, started deleting them and the problem doesn't exist anymore.


Proper and enforced moderation. That's everything you fucking need.


I would be fine with benchmarks on every CPU/GPU release.
Just make a fucking sticky so the board isn't shat on by /v/edditor children arguing which corporation is the best.

And detele all those "le windoze sucks, how can lincucks complete" etc etc threads.

Or just make a new "Operating systems, cybersecurity, networking" board and merge /g/ with /v/.

>>59234626
/g/ - Technology
/cc/ - Computer customization (including battlestations, desktops, homescreens, everyday faggotry etc)
/ce/ - Consumer electronics

really ban, delete tech support garbage. Keep it in the sqt or fuck off to /wsr/. In an ideal world /sqt/ shouldn't even have to exist.

>>59234626
Get rid of all the /v/iggers

>>59234626
The real problem isn't /v/ but consumer whores.

>>59235326

mechanical keyboard threads and "chink shit general" need to be shoah'd

>>59235448
/csg/ keep to themselves in one, contained thread.
/v/iggers however maintain a constant collection of at least 10 shitposting threads.

>>59234898
You keep telling yourself that. Do you believe every greentext story you read on /r9k/ too?

>>59234626
i seriously hope all of you die painful deaths. bot even joking. i never knew this level of hate could be achieved.

my only consolation is to know every single one of you will die no matter what.

>>59235525
Why are you here?
Honestly curious.

Bring back desktop threads.

Anyone notice how many anti piracy fags are on /g/ now? /V/ needs to get out with their morality bullshit.

With all the constant shilling around I'd say we definitely needs IDs.

why are phone posters still allowed to post? you can evade bans effortlessly and they are bar none the biggest shitposters on all of 4chan.

>>59235855
Easy solution: require the client to send an expensive hash as proof of work.
This should drain the phoneposter's batteries fast.

>>59235855
at least you can filter their threads and most of their posts with literally 5 lines of filter regex

I see the four sides here

1) The programmers

>Tech isn't really important, just an old thinkpad running Linux is enough
>Anything else is /v/ tier gaming babby shit
>Actually know how shit works but have no passion towards anything but writing shit in a text editor
>Superiority complex and an ego the size of a small planet

2) Normies

>Every new meme must be bought because tech is their """passion"""
>Absolutely no clue about how things actually work
>Absolutely no interest in learning how things actually work
>$5000 furniture in /bst/ threads among three 4K screens
>Extremely opinionated, but on both sides of the board (Apple and Microshit), as long as it's expensive they will defend it
>Easily make up for the majority of mobile posters

3) /v/ tier babbys

>Play games all day but every now and then they get too tired, before mom has those tendies ready, they look up recent gaming benchmarks and shitpost on /g/
>Even more opininated than normies but have a slightly bigger interest in how everything works
>Would maybe be able to comprehend stuff but learning isn't gaming and you can't do two things at once
>Every time AMD is coming up with something new, they jump on the bandwagon and when the benchmarks show it's not as good as they hoped it to be, they jump back on the intel bandwagon
>Most are normies who got lured into the game by /v/irgins posting their expensive gayming gear in /bst/ threads and now have no life nor friends
>Highest post count on /g/

4) Degenerates and weirdos

>Can't stop posting their dildos to /g/
>Neets who think they are superior to /v/ tier babbys
>At best know a little of some useless language like python or lua
>Some times are pedophiles too but pretend it's not a problem
>Contribute absolutely nothing to /g/ but it's their only way to seek attention
>Not very different to /v/irgins except they're too busy posting on /g/ to be good at any game

I agree to the fullest, let the janitors press their thumb against stupid tech support questions and the parallel running shill threads and we'll be good to go, or at least better than now.

the most sensible solution seems to be creating new boards to contain the consumerist/shilling cancer and ban the /v/ scum.
MAKE /G/ GREAT AGAIN!

>>59236162
It already exists.

It's called /r/pcmasterrace

>>59234626
Create more threads that you like instead of whining like a numale cuck

>>59234816
/g/ yes
/v/ no

>>59235888
how could you filter via regex the *phone poster*. you mean the smartphone threads, right?

>>59236815
simple: I noticed that their apps use predictable filenames:

-only file extension like .jpg
-replaces real filename with 'image(s)' or 'download(s)'
-screenshots: "screenshot 2017" "screenshot from 2017" "screenshot_2017" (extensively used for twitter screencap+someone BTFO shitposting)
-not sure the source but I began to see a lot of IMG_2017 filenames

note: maybe some of these are not images posted from mobile, but accompany shitposts so much you have nothing to lose but a bit to gain when filtering them, from all board, recursively, OPs included, without stubs.

Don't believe me? Go to the archive and search for these filenames.

>>59235525
>my only consolation is to know every single one of you will die no matter what.

I chortled.

>>59234626
How about enforcing the board rules? 90% of permathreads on /g/ literally break the board rules yet are protected by the mods. The remaining 10% are always obvious shill threads, which also happen to obviously be protected by the mods (make a single spoof thread which says exactly the opposite of these shill threads? Insta-deleted, yet they're allowed to have 10 threads shilling their garbage product to the bump limit).
