For years people tried to maintain this board's status as a retro board, but the only thing people discuss now is Gundam and dumb generals that are barely mecha related. Nothing gets any replies unless it's b8.
To tell you the truth, I've lost interest in mecha and I only browse due to habit, but it seems that no one thinks of /m/ as a community or tries to do anything interesting anymore. That's sad.
Honestly there hasn't been a whole lot of Mecha recently. I'd attribute all the Gundam talk to the recent releases.

that's a lie
>>14879023
Most of the Mecha lately has been complete unwatchable shit or boring/disinteresting*
Fixed it for him

Go start a thread for another show then
Or a shows that aren't gundam thread
>>14878974
Do you wanna talk about Eva? I don't understand. What's wrong with probably the largest most popular mech franchise being the focus of the mecha board.
Also I've found /m/ to be pretty approachable to a newcomer to mecha in general. So maybe that's a plus?
>>14878974
I've been here for a few years, plenty of other /m/ series show up. Even spaceship threads every now and then.
Could this thread be just another bait thread?
ignore this thread, it's just pedro again

evangelion is the naruto of mecha should better off stick to /a/

And those people are goddamn retards. /m/ was never the retro board, it just so happens that most mecha is pretty old.

You have SRWEternity getting the bi-yearly thread, a group of six some people making a translation hack for SRWGC, VF-kun running three translation patch opportunities by /m/ and making a group watch thread on Saturday afternoons
if anything, /m/ has MORE community cohesion than other boards
>>14882269
Don't forget the guys who put our a mechamon play test
>>14882269
there's well over two people dropping by my mog-3 channel for the weekly Dougram/Dagwon/Voltes stuff too

They didn't sit down and have good times with friends while working collectively towards something, they just kept posting a dumb scene from a movie until the containment boards started to use it
That isn't community, it's just a meme
>>14882310
pretty sure otaking also draw the plane scene
that meme is just magical
hell they even make porn out of it
>>14882308
You're wrong
