Is it just me or do boards focused on active hobbies like /tg/, /o/, /k/, /fit/, /out/, /diy/, /fa/, /trv/ or /ck/ have higher quality of posts than boards focused on passive ones like /a/, /v/, /tv/, /co/, /mu/ and /lit/?
Yes. Boards focused on a topic that require a level of autism to get into tend to have a small community of autistic posters. Boards about a topic that every fucking normie from Facebook/Reddit/etc. think they know a lot about instantly gets flooded with them.
Where /sp/ and /asp/ fit in? Anyone can play sports in amateur level and some even in profissional level but there is also no need to leave your couch to watch some mandrama, handegg or whatever.
It's just you. Most of those boards are filled with poor quality posts and discourse, similar to the rest of the site. The really low traffic, niche hobby boards such as /diy/ do have a different type of user, I'll give you that.

>quality
It's 90% underage noguns Euros and Californians who can't seem to understand even the basic terminology of ballistics giving terrible advice to eachother.
The threads about everything but guns are the best ones there, which tend to be more conjecture and discussion like the "passive" boards.

Boards with less normalfags have higher quality posts than boards with a high number of normalfags, e.g. /v/, /tv/, or the way it is going, /a/.

>autistic people have better conversations than normal people
Causes me to ponder.

My nigger. The gun threads used to be fun but now all full of circlejerking and shit.

/sp/ is full of normalfags and it's one of the best boards

Enjoy people thinking you're weird because you dont watch dubs in 10 years

Dubs aren't inherently bad. It's really a show-by-show basis. JoJo, Code Geass, REDLINE, and Cromartie are all shows with good dubs.
If you watch dubs like SGT Frog, Prison School, My Hero Academia, or most things Funimation, you should just fuck off, though.

I have literally no idea what you're talking about and it feels great.

originally /tg/ had good quality, but nowadays not anymore.
