This is the state of all popular boards, it isn't exclusive to just one. It's part of this site's culture/userbase and it's here to stay whether you like it or not. I'm not advocating for it btw.

Contain /rock/ and /hiphop/ into one general each to allow more variety to flourish in other genres

>>74638760
Have Hiro contact the reddit admins and create a database of all the IP addresses of reddit users
Ban them on this site
Problem solved

>>74638760
BAN ALL THE NORMIES REEEEEE

>>74639245
okay

It is literally all a result of allowing hip hop threads. Ban them and the board will ne 100 percent normal again. Or don't. Not here to argue but if your precious black music is so important enjoy the shitposting.

>>74638760
I just know you're the same autist spamming this shit thread on all popular boards.

If you dont like 4chan just leave.

Half the mobile IPs have month long bans from the kpop general. The other half have month long bans from /vg/. At this rate, phoneposting will be a thing of the past before Halloween.

>>74638760
The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that the Beatles did anything worthy of being saved.

It was abysmally bad a week ago for about two weeks before then, but now it appears to be as shitty as ever (slightly worse, without the best posters around, but whatever). Even then, this doesn't mean something shouldn't be done about it.

admitting to being a redditor needs to become a bannable offense. any time someone admits to being a redditor, coincidentally they are also making awful posts.

These lil peep threads make me want to suicide because people keep taking them seriously even though they're shitposts, and all the attention it gets makes people keep thinking that they're not shitposts

>>74639876
DUDE YOU FUCKING BULLIED SOMEONE, SHUT UP

Ironic shitposting and meming makes newfags think that the shitty content is normal and they will proceed to sustain its presence, then oldfags will either move on or start complaining. Then more faggots shitpost and the cycle continues. I hate you people.

>People who use the terms "pretentious" and "pseudo-intellectual"
>People who think "plebeian" and "patrician" are actual descriptors that hold meaning

>The board is pro shit posting but anti fun.

In the sense that the same bait threads get posted all time over and over. But Hunger Games threads or Desktop threads get deleted. It's annoying becuase I feel like the grimes bait threads are 10x worst than just fun and games.

I also got banned for using twitter memes, this board is too serious about the wrong stuff and too lax when it comes to other things.

>anti fun
This is honestly one of the boards that takes itself the least seriously.

>>74641191
It's all fun and games. Just guessing what other people listen to based on their desktop. They have them on both /tv/ and /v/ it's just a nice social thing to do and I think it's good for board health.

Music player threads are too obvious there's no fun in that becuase that's obviously showing what you listen to, and then people just pointing out and rating what they see it's boring and lame.

>>74641189

This board is slowly dying

>>74641273
Doesn't help that there's been so few albums being added to /mu/core as of late. Instead, people just try to take Hospice off of the list

>>74641273
Good there's no discussion it's just the same things circle jerked.

>>74641330
>being added to /mu/core as of late.
Is as of late the last 7-years?

Apart from Death Grips, it's kind of been the same few albums for forever.

>>74641333
Fewer users would be a large reason for the recent lack of variety.

>>74641364
Pretty much. We can't even decide on which Grips album(s)

>>74641273
>This board is slowly dying
Just like good music :^)

Honestly I think /mu/ has fallen into the irredeemably shit category for boards on this site. The only reason I come here anymore is for share threads and to discuss the occasional hyped new release. Unfortunately /mu/ just isn't a good board. The shitposting isn't funny or creative, the actual "discussion" is vapid as fuck and everything revolves around the same handful of albums every time. I think most posters here are teenagers so when you start getting on in your twenties, you really start to notice how stupid and annoying everyone is.

/mu/ should just be deleted.

>>74641469
Good music never dies, anon.

>>74641473
/mu/ was never good. The imageboard format is almost completely incompatible with good music discussion.

The only thing this board ever had going for it was that it's the only place on the internet with active discussion on non-popular music.

>>74641115
witchy is way older than 24

>>74640527

>>74641506
>/mu/ was never good.

Yeah but it certainly used to be better. I'm not going to pretend it was ever a high quality board but nowadays it's just pure garbage. Though I feel the same about most other boards I used to like as well, so perhaps I should just stop coming here altogether.

>>74641273
slower traffic is a good thing you nonce

>>74640065
fuck off reddit cunt

>>74641555
Fewer users mean less diverse music knowledge and staler discussion.

I'm the only good thing about /mu/ >protip you can't

>>74641586
I feel a great disturbance in the force :S

>>74641533
isn't he like 40? pathetic

>>74641586
It also means obscure stuff gets achieved way more easily

>>74641586
anyone who has "diverse" taste either already knows about /mu/ and chooses not to come here, or is already here. trying to attract more people just invites in more idiots from reddit with their p4kcore garbage taste.

/mu/ went mainstream some time in 2015 or 2016, i see /mu/ memes and people talking about /mu/core on fucking facebook now. the board has been absolutely flooded with redditors and apart from some of the less friendly generals the board has been watered down by an influx of 14 year olds who have little to no musical knowledge. remember 5 or so years ago when on other boards people would say /mu/ is too pretentious and hate the board because they got made fun of for coming in here and posting about skrillex or deadmau5? now all this 14 year old trap rap shit gets 300 post threads.

>>74641645
Yea I'm okay with ne or two trap threads but it's a bit much now

How much of this do we blame on poptimism and waifufags?

>>74641645
/mu/ is a lot slower than it used to be

>>74641645
Your assertion is that the current state of things can be based on your own facebook activity and observing whatever 3rd party content scalping websites that none of us actually use. Its an opinion discarded from me bub

>>74641211
It genuinely did used to be a little better. Around 2014 this board began to really go down the shitter. I can go on the catalog at anytime of the day and there will be NOTHING worthwhile, at all. It's literally the same shitposts repeated, ad nauseaum, every single day. Just look at the RYM threads or any Grimes thread. They all follow the same progression. It's really bizarre .

It feels like the traffic to the board has fallen off greatly too.

>>74641763
I'm glad I'm not the only one who's noticed this
In 2011-12 the place was a lot faster
Most threads barely even reach 80 posts anymore

>>74641892
Anon at his best

The only reason this board was faster in 2010-12 was because the mods stopped coming here and Cooltop, Niggaman420, NigFish and ThePope shitposted like there was no tomorrow

I can deal with most of the shit on here but these are the most annoying IMO. Self promotion and all social threads like charts and especially daily should be banned in my humble opinion.
