Are we allowed to have the board discussion metathread that Hiro approved yet?

Are there any things about the board that you would like to see changed?

Revert /tg/ to how it used to be pre nazimod.
It's just gotten worse ever since.
>>
>>50838708
Like what for example?
>>
>>50838727
That's impossible because the people who made it that way have been driven off or reduced to a minority by newcomers and the people who supported the change.

You'd need to make a new board and be mod for it yourself for that.
>>
I'm happy about the boardstate right now. A relatively good distribution of topics, shitposting isn't too bad and all in all you can get good discussions here. We need to be vigilant to not slide down into worse shitposting. More content creation would be nice, but that's on us, not Hiro. Other than that I'd leave it as is. Maybe add more wordfilters for hilarity.
>>
>>50838665
Like it or not, it's one of the biggest issues on the board.
It may have been a mistake to cater to whiners, as that is asking for more whining.
>>
>>50838562
How long before quest threads are allowed back on /tg/

They're definitely more fun here than on /qst/ because the people on /tg/ know what they're doing

This.

Nazimod was a mistake. It's all been downhill since then.
>>
>>50838742
>More content creation would be nice, but that's on us, not Hiro.
Lolno. Content creators were driven away by the moderation. Before Hiro, yes, but still, not our fault. Except those who backed the purges.
>>
>>50838763
7 years and 6 months.
>>
>>50838742
I don't think we will have much content creation for a while. This board sent several very loud messages that it hates artists and creators, regardless of their product.

We'll have to slowly grow them back, like post nazimod. I don't know if that will work this time, though, as there is no moot to save us.
>>
>>50838562
>Are there any things about the board that you would like to see changed?
Fewer metathreads, yours included.

Now get out.

ok now you're just trolling.
>>
>>50838742
>More content creation would be nice, but that's on us, not Hiro.

Not really dude.

We've allowed the worst segments of our userbase to drive away many of our creative types. They've systematically gone after each avenue for creativity on /tg/ and removed them one by one.

That doesn't make much sense.

>>50838816
Yeah, but that is hiro's fault. Under moot, he knew to ignore the whiners.

Though I do agree with the shitposters really driving away content creation.
>>
>>50838816
What does it feel like to be such a fucking SJW? Purging the whiny entitled namefags and tripfags is the first duty of any Chan.

/tg/ is a fantastic place, and as always, has been a crowning achievement of 4chan that Moot himself gave his blessing. Any other idea is just nonsense by rabblerousing malcontents who want to achieve height by standing on the ruins of others.
>>
>>50838824
Off hand discussions in general are no longer a thing because of depends on the setting fags. Writefaggotry outside of the general is shitposted repeatedly by not muh board fags. Artfags have left entirely outside of designated draw threads. We have had multiple nazimods, eaxh casting out as many creatives as possible.

It gives this place a poor ability to make and retain artists.

muh quests

I am still sad about qst. I accepted we are not really going to get quests back, long ago, but it just makes me sad. Especially because most of my favorite quests didn't make the jump.
>>
>>50838862
But anon, modern /tg/ is specifically against moot's policies and wishes.
>>
So, why does /tg/ have dice? You only need those if you are playing some part of a game like battles or character creation or something, and /tg/ isn't for game playing.

I suggest we remove dice, as they are an unneeded legacy feature.
>>
>>50838879
Can you show a single iota of proof, or are you just whining to try and collect my (You) with your counter-/tg/ garbage?

>>50838868
And yet, he ignored /tg/ whiners for almost a decade.

>>50838562
>Are there any things about the board that you would like to see changed?
I'd like you and your constant whining threads permabanned.

Happy? You got real feedback.
>>
>>50838894
Remember how he sent all quests to /tg/?
Or how he didn't like splitting boards until they were super fucking fast like /v/?

>>50838910
Permabans don't stop whiners. We learned that the hard way for the last eight years.
>>
>>50838866
>Writefaggotry outside of the general is shitposted repeatedly by not muh board fags. Artfags have left entirely outside of designated draw threads.
Yeah this is what happens when the newcomers like >>50838862 are allowed to take over.

>>50838893
>So, why does /tg/ have dice? You only need those if you are playing some part of a game like battles or character creation or something, and /tg/ isn't for game playing.

It is pretty funny how the board that was given dice specifically to play games on /tg/ now has an outdated sticky telling people how to use the dice AND a sticky telling people not to play games on /tg/.

>>50838816
>avenue for creativity

Ha.
Ha ha.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA.

Good one. I bet you're the guy who thinks the smut threads produced something other than pure cringe.

/tg/ has plenty of avenues for creativity, it's just that /tg/ needs to recover from having to deal with people like your kind, the ones who make every drawthread a endless series of "Draw this character that's going to might only last a single game that only I care about."

We used to be a community, because back in the day the board was "/tg/ and the trolls", where it was obvious which side you were on. Now? The trolls have been forced to not be quite so obvious, working together to not only act like dumb cunts, but to act like being a dumb cunt is what /tg/'s about.

Getting rid of the smut threads was one of those steps of recovery, when we of /tg/ finally said "look at these dumbfuck /d/ trolls trying to carve a niche on /tg/, and look at the pretenses they've erected to pretend they belong here. Fuck em."

And, here you are, once again, trying to pretend you belong on /tg/, wearing your masks, and not realizing that a board is not a persona, but a topic of discussion. If you like discussing /d/, go to /d/, and stop trying to make /tg/ your personal board.
>>
>>50838893
Sad but true.
>>
>>50838562
The "kick everything I don't like" attitude around here is really damaging to all types of thread other than generals.

This. More and more it seems like the "don't even need the other boards" or the spirit of inclusiveness that was a favorite aspect of /tg/ seems to be fading.

I never thought I'd long for when /tg/ wasn't a blue board, but that'd shut a lot of these fucks up pretty fast.

>>50838935
You are literally the worst thing to happen to this board.

You are the face of trolls tring to disguise themselves.

/tg/ needs to be a redboard. The newfags need to be cast out.
>>
>>50839001
Also Captcha should be removed and the waiting time between posts should be shortened.
>>
>>50838977
Yeah, newfags have taken over from oldfags really thoroughly.

It is a shame too, I have so much artfaggotry from the old days that is impossible nowadays because of the easily offended newfags.
>>
>>50838893
Fuck, yeah, I guess so.

That's really sad actually. Literally no reason to have 'em anymore.

>>50839010
At this point it can never be reversed without a whole new board run by mods with the old attitude to /tg/, the don't even need other boards attitude.
>>
>>50839012
Well, no legal reason at least.
We stll manage to secretly play games sometimes.
>>
>>50838970
No, you dumbfuck. I've been here since /tg/ began, and I remember how we had to deal with you. You were the idiots who spammed porn here when you were bored, so much so that you were directly responsible for the birth and reign of Nazimod.

It is you who we have to thank for that dark time.

And, after Nazimod, I was one of the many who was upset about how de-lewded /tg/ had become. I enjoyed the funny lewd joke, the occasional lewd post, and was upset about the excessive control from the moderators.

BUT FUCK YOU.
You guys don't understand basic common decency. This isn't a puritan exaggeration, this an observation on how you guys don't understand how to make a lewd joke without running it into the ground, how you don't understand how to suggest a lewd idea without soaking it in cringe and then burying it up your own asses.

You guys don't understand moderation, and it's why you've ruined things for the rest of us. We can't even have lewd jokes anymore, because you guys have killed any humor by always taking those ideas seriously.

You don't belong here, because you never tried to understand what /tg/ was. You just wanted to have /d/ disccussions on another board because the way we view you guys is the way you guys view the rest of /d/, thanks to you being so blindly self-unaware.

>>50839067
I am a drawfag/writefag, and I was vocal against nazimod. I've drawn and written lewd things in the past, and still do so on other boards.

So please, don't be dumb. I recognize when people don't belong on a board, because apparently unlike you, I actually have the sense to use more than one board.

>>50838862
I think you're doing your best to ignore how bad it's gotten here, friend-o.

Moot mentioned tg as being one of the better boards a while back, but that was when he would drop by on rare occasion and be greeted with "hey how goes" and tg's unique brand of discussion and debate. Last time I ever saw him on tg, he got an immediate "Fuck you, how date you exist" followed by the worst shitposting I've seen on tg to this day.

Tg had changed for the worse. It's a lot harder to have a debate anymore, and God help you if you go off topic. It's not the SJW's behind a rubber mask to be revealed like a fucking Scooby-Doo villain, it's having a shitty community based on hatred and tearing things down.
>>
>>50839173
It's no surprise, not muh board fags are widely known fow lying and samefagging.
>>
>>50839151
This is a /tg/ bitching thread, not a drawthread. I don't even understand how stupid you need to be to try and say that because I'm bitching about you bitchers that that's all I do on this board.

>>50839154
I outlined why you and your ilk are responsible. I'm at least doing my part to contribute in other threads, while you're probably just spamming dumb shit in your vain hopes of restoring what's best left on the other boards.

Where next? You guys were moved to /soc/, /b/, and /d/. What other board are you going to be pushed into before you realize that you don't belong here?

>Not muh board fag desperately pretending he isn't responsible for everything wrong with the board

Yeah, it sucks your ilk killed the creative attitude. It also sucks that you guys declare anything you don't like not board related.

It is a shame newfags like you took over after the oldfags were mostly removed.

This. Nazimod spawned when /tg/ was unable to moderate itself. Seing how well community moderates itself now, we could expect bright times in near future.

>>50839235
If you weren't paying attention, I very likely was posting on this board before you were, since I was posting here on the very first day of /tg/.

Misfortune never come alone. Newfags and all usual stuff they bring (shitposting, whinning, etc) are easily attracted by smut and porn spam some of you people are so fond of. I can see how one lead to another and both lead to Nazimod.

>>50839242
Nah, it's just shitty people who like to attack anything and everything. Even a topic that has in the past been pretty universally liked gets shouted down as being awful these days.

Even if that was the case, "quality control" like that doesn't work. 90% of any medium is shit and if you shrink the medium, thinking you will only get good stuff, you'll find that 90% of the stuff remaining is still shit, there's just less stuff, so there's less room for the good stuff.

Nazimod was fucking years ago. So is the great Purge. And yes, that were two separate events. We are long past this now.

We have regular drawthreads, game development and sculpting/painting threads now and way less shitty memeposting than two years ago. People need to stop crying for a mythical past age they never even fucking witnessed. Quests and Smut Threads delivered shitty content for literal circlejerks that nobody outside gave a shit about and they are dead and buried now. Smut because it doesn't belong on a blue board and quests because there were too many of them.
If you want content, stop crying for fucking Hiro to do something and start producing it yourself.

You're talking to more than one person.
I'm personally pro-moot, if there is such a thing.

moot, for the most part, had the right ideas, and his ideas about what 4chan meant and what it's supposed to be about are kind of why I still come here.

In his final Q&A, moot said he regretted how each board had developed an isolationist culture, with people sticking to one board and treating everyone else like outsiders.

While the Smutfags would argue that means that /d/ should belong on /tg/, that's hardly the case. It means that they shouldn't be so afraid to visit boards outside of their comfort zone, and to stop trying to make /tg/ their personal "This is my everything" board.

I would gladly welcome some temporary /d/ collaborations, if they were acknowledged and understood as such, and rather than people trying to carve out little spaces for their off-topic interests on /tg/. Same with any of the other boards. /m/ and /tg/ collaborating on a mech game, /a/ and /tg/ developing a cliche-ridden slice-of-life game, and so on and so forth.

>>50839548
I will, instead, blame /pol/ for having no morals and evading bans.

I remember, way before all of this gamergate, SJW idiots v. Other idiots nonsense happened, when everyone would say that the best part of the gaming community was how accepting they were. How they originated from the fringe of society and were ridiculed for being different, so they didn't judge you on being different. All that mattered is that you play the game and don't be a dick about things.

Hiro and I have discussed the matter, and as a result the mod responsible for this warning has been fired. 4chan has a templated system of bans in order to ensure that the rules are enforced in a standardized way across all boards, and this mod decided to circumvent those templates in order to deliver a political message. Doing so was highly inappropriate as it demonstrated that the mod's motivation was not to enforce the rules, but to enforce his personal beliefs. This is outside the mandate of a 4chan moderator, and grounds for termination.

>Like it or not, it's one of the biggest issues on the board.
It's only an issue because questfags keep making this "Are we allowed to have one metathread" thread to whine about how they're not allowed to shit up /tg/ with Waifuquest69 Thread #1005 anymore.
>>
>>50839583
The biggest problem with this is that, where should such a discussion take place?

You can't discuss /tg/ games on /d/, because /d/ is all about lewd picture posting. Conversely, you can't talk about /d/ things on /tg/, because muh blue board and because muh smutfags.

That's the most extreme example, but the point remains that there is no place to discuss or deal with cross-board works. /tg/ and /m/ would love to come together, but which board should the discussion take place on? Should the thread be banned on /tg/ because talking hard /m/ is supposed to be on another board, or is talking games on /m/ wrong because there's a board made for that?

This kind of damned if you do, damned if you don't problem means that the boards are just going to become more and more isolationist as time goes on and mods try to be more stringent.

Get rid of the blatant off topic shit.

Be sure as much as the ones who don't like quests say, quests usually picked up people because of causal browsing from people that were interested in the world.

>>50838562

Removing quests was the best thing that happened to /tg/ in a long time. The defiant questers who rejected and campaigned against a board made specifically for them and now mope here on /tg/ complaining about how "quests were tg-related" and "/qst/ doesn't work" after going out of their way to hurt /qst/ in its infancy, you reap what you sow!

Naruto Quest 9281249 and friends was never /tg/ material. But not just that, no quest was /tg/ material. This board is for discussion of traditional games, not playing them. That's why there are no "Let's Play DND" threads (in addition to the fact that it would be shitposted mercilessly).

I am so glad the catalogue isn't 25% quest. I'm so glad the front page isn't a slog past a dozen quests, often atrocious popular anime ones to boot.

Thank you Mods for finally enforcing /qst/ in September. Thank you thank you thank you.

Hello, I helped rape Subeta into a quivering, incomprehensible shell of what it used to be.
Which wasn't really much of anything, honestly.

The days of Nazimod were terrible, but the content creators who were so puss that they never returned are too puss for 4chan. Good riddance.
Everyone that contributes to threads for the sole purpose of triggering or being triggered needs to be permabanned. Everyone from the people pretending to be retarded to the people who take the threads seriously and right on up to the DEUS VULT PURGE ALL DEGENERATES twats. Under normal circumstances, I'd say that the discourse is necessary for the growth of 4chan, but it's become evident that this whole conflict is no longer a normal circumstance.
Quests were newfag magnets and I'm not sad to see them go.
Anyone who thinks some general thing should be removed from /tg/ for being autistic has no business saying what is and isn't /tg/.
Anyone who thinks some general thing should be removed from /tg/ for being cringe has no business saying what is and isn't /tg/, even though I would certainly not miss such terrible things.

I was working on a sizeable post about how the ephemeral nature of 4chan runs counter to /tg/'s need to build and continually work on things, but it was getting to the point that it needed at least two posts and I have to go to work. Sorry. Just going to throw that out there as a point and let the rest of you figure out what I mean.

I disagree with this, and I support /qst/ being its own board.

/tg/ should be open to playing and discussing games. In fact, I had no real problem with quests while they were here, even though I never participated in them.

But, now that there is /qst/, it makes sense for quests to go there, but that shouldn't limit the potential for people to try and make games on /tg/.

Also, your weird hatred for D&D and Anime makes me wonder why you're on 4chan's /tg/ at all.

Look at people like Foron or ND who can shit the place by themselves. You need only a handful of dedicated people to keep something simple like quests afloat.
>>
>>50839772
Oh good, thanks for that verification.

In all seriousness though, the point is that it is something that it's impossible to prove but easy to say. It doesn't bring weight to the conversation, it's just pointless dick waving.

In addition to this, there's the fact that even if someone was in fact here on the first day of tg, that doesn't grant special post bonuses and that doesn't grant you mystical wisdom. Someone can be on tg on the first day and still be an idiot. More charitably, someone can be on tg on the first day and miss information, or due to life circumstances, miss very important parts of tg history.

TLDR; first dayness doesn't mean anything, it just distracts from the actual issues.

The problem with /tg/ is the same problem as /v/, /co/, /fit/, and /k/

A significant portion, maybe even the majority, of the board's users don't actually engage in the board's purpose. Nobody on /v/ actually plays videogames, half of /fit/ is faggots posting chubby selfies asking for a routine and getting mad when told to read the sticky, half of /k/ are fudds or europoor noguns, and /tg/ posters don't actually play traditional games, they just talk about them and whine a lot.

This isn't a problem that can be fixed, but it's worth bringing up because it puts the others into perspective.

The other problem is again one shared by other boards, and that's the fact that every other thread is a poorly concealed fetish/fap bait in disguise because the primary users of this site are lonely and sexually frustrated young men.

If you took away every redeemed succubus, dark eldar/slaanesh fap bait, "elves are lewd", and general fetish thread there's almost nothing left of the fucking board. You've got CYOA nonsense which are just quests now that quests are gone (thank god, quests were even more poorly disguised porn), you've got generals which most posters don't play the game talked about, you've got magical realm fap bait, and you've got shitposting.

That's it. That's the board.

If people had to fap before coming to /tg/ there'd maybe be actual content instead of horny nerds jerking off over dragon tits and contrivances that make paladins fall
>>
What games did the posters of old used to play on here? Anything actually fun?
>>
>>50840033
But anon, it was shown the majority of those were almost entirely /tg/ exclusive posters after the board switch.
>>
>>50839698
Because, despite what the fifteen whiners that got quests moved claimed, there were only ever around 12-14 quests on /tg/ during the highest traffic days at most, and generally a third of those would be winding down and getting ready to fall off the board at any given time.

Quests were popular, but they weren't monolithic. There are hundreds of questfags, but they don't all follow every quests. A lot of them only followed one or two. Meaning they only brought their activity for two specific quests. And this is the crux of the problem with /qst/ - few people are just into quests. Every quest is different, after all, it's not a standardized system. People would see quests relating to [thing they like] and click them out of curiosity. Nobody clicks on /qst/. I guarantee you than 99% of 4chan's usebase has no idea what quests are and will never ever enter that board.

So, since most questfags just follow one or two quests and often never bother with others, that means no new players ever enter. When the last few popular QMs left finish their quests /qst/ will probably end up with activity levels lower than /po/, because at least that's something people recognize, whereas the average person just browsing the board titles has no idea what 'quests' means.

There's also the issue that the board itself is just terribly designed. User IDs encourage grudges and arguments between players and the slow pace combined with the thread per poster limit means that just running a quest on there is awkward as fuck.

The only problems I notice with /tg/ are mad-lib shitposting threads. Shit like:

>how does X fetish affect your setting?
>when did you realize X system was garbage?
>all X in your setting is now Y

Not all of them are bad, but it seems nine times out of ten threads that start with this are used either for OP to masturbate about his fetish being forced on other people, or to start a shitpost fight for no good reason.
>>
>>50840069
Basically all questers were like this.

There were very few dedicated quest people that just quested. Most quests were filled with random fa/tg/uys that saw a quest relating to something they found interesting and decided to check it out.

Which is why quests should really just be dispersed among whichever boards relate to their subject matter.
>>
>>50840039
You. You're alright with me.

/tg/ is one of a few boards where you can actually play what you are talking about on the same website. The only thing stopping people from playing is the organization and this rule.

>Self inserting about how your committee designed OC got the girl and saved the day while you masturbate furiously to the thought of actually being good at something still counts

Wew, I guess we should just get rid of all roleplaying on /tg/. I mean, fuck, who would've thought that the PCs in a game might save the fucking day, right? Or interact meaningfully with the plot? Gee, how silly of us. Let us immediately remove D&D, WoD, Exalted, Riddle of Steel, Eclipse Phase, CoC, and basically everything where you make a character and fight a threat.

Moron.

>Not every quest was straight up porn, but that doesn't mean they weren't all one big lonely circlejerk.

Mate, not even half were porn, or close to being porn.

Nobody uses /qst/, it doesn't work.

Some of those CYOAs have actual systems of play and communities. They're not Quests.

Other than "I don't like them on my board", do you have any reasoning for wanting them 'banished'?
>>
>>50840164
You're not guilty.

That's just how questing works on the whole.

So why does /tg/ still have a dice now? It's not going to be used for anything.

They're just quests trying to subvert the quest ban by rebranding themselves slightly desu.

>>50840207
>Some of those CYOAs have actual systems of play and communities. They're not Quests.

You realize that quests had those things too, right?

Some of them had bafflingly complex rulesets, and quests like Shadow Quest, HMQ, Bloodborn, etc, had playerbases in the hundreds.

I mean, you shouldn't be banned, but that's not the best defense.

And to expand, I have visited /qst/ exactly twice, once when it was announced and once today because of this thread. Both times I looked at the front page and left.

I was following a thread off/on before the move when I saw it in the catalog and now I don't even know if it still runs.
>>
>>50840207
Most Quests used die rolls and systems ripped straight from RPGs. Others invented their own systems. They all had communities that'd cruse on down to the board every time the threads popped back up.

The only difference is that CYOA fags are more focused on the systems than the adventure itself, and that's only most of the time ; Just look at the circlejerk that's Jumpchan and it's just a bunch of questers fucking about like an incestuous group of rabbits.
>>
>>50840207
Same reason for quests that had systems of play and communities that followed them.
>>
>>50840207
They are single person quests. If quests had instead been called "adventures" back when they first started out this wouln't even be a discussion.
>>
>>50840195
In the old days it was fine.
Nowadays all games are banned so antiquestfags have an excuse for removing quests. Not even the mechs remain.
>>
>>50839791
>Anyone else?
I've been banned once for something unrelated to quests that I don't even remember anymore, and didn't evade. I've always hated quests and the fags belonging thereto. The Day of >>>/qst/ was a great day.

We do this every week.

>>50838562

>>50840243
>They're just quests trying to subvert the quest ban by rebranding themselves slightly
You can say the exact same thing about setting discussion. There's, what, 3-4 CYOA threads up at a time? At maximum? Of what, 150+ threads?

Checking RIGHT NOW, there are exactly 152 threads up, including 3 CYOA-based threads. You are complaining about literally 1% of the board.

Seems pretty small peanuts to me. At least there were about a dozen or two quest threads at any given time on /tg/ before /qst/, so you could justify banishing them to their own board.

That 1% of the board could be taken up by shit that's actually /tg/ related, though, while the CYOA's could occupy a more approriate board.

Yes. And it solves nothing. You know why? Because /tg/ is full of fat repulsive toads who would rather bitch about their issues to each other and hope that mommy-mod solves their problem while they sit around like an overgrown infant with a diaper full of shit.

You want quests back? Make a reason for it. Run better Quests on /qst/. Create a generals thread to advertise them on here, and push that instead of a thread for fuckbois to whine to other faggots about how their bum is sore. Find a way to make it something substantial.

Tired of shitposting? Don't respond to bait, and spend your time in other threads discussing more worthwhile topics. Better yet, post better threads. Be the fucking change you want to see on this board.

>>50840359
If we have a board for something, then it should go on that board. Do you go and post cocks on /u/? No. What's the point of a containment board if we don't use it, or allow exceptions just because a Quest dosen't have "quest" in the title.

You are the one full of shit.

People actually math'd out the average amount of quests on the board at once. An outrageous day was 17. If you had 27 threads hidden, you were generally hiding a whole bunch of other non-quest threads.

And yes, there were quests still on /tg/. Because nobody moved back them, because /qst/ is legitimately broken.

So why don't those guys browse /qst/ to find a quest now and then?

Probably because they didn't use all the proper terms. There were plenty of quests that didn't have quest in the title, and had to be filtered in other ways.

>Half of the population of quests in the first place were random faggots looking for their favorite threads that saw a semi-interesting quest thread and clicked it. Without the exposure to /tg/'s userbase there's only a fraction of the population from before.

>>50840612
I'm still not seeing a substantial argument to "CYOAs are just Quests with a different name" that doesn't also condemn half the board or just boil down to "I don't like THING so ban it".
>>
>>50840050
>And this is the crux of the problem with /qst/ - few people are just into quests. Every quest is different, after all, it's not a standardized system. People would see quests relating to [thing they like] and click them out of curiosity. Nobody clicks on /qst/. I guarantee you than 99% of 4chan's usebase has no idea what quests are and will never ever enter that board.
This doesn't answer my question. If few people followed quests to begin with why won't said few players move to other board to engage in the same activities?

You make it sound like dropping quests was a fine idea.

>>50840671
Because everything that uses it is considered a Quest by stupid fuckers in this very thread.

Hell, even CYOAs don't really use it. AMG CYOA sometimes uses it for character generation, but they've got their own off-site communities as well. Their threads are mostly for exposure these days because they kept getting shitposted to hell and back.

>>50840618
Spacebattles, a forum for fanfiction, quests and other such faggotry.
>>
>>50840577
Because the quests they liked are gone now and they're not interested in any others?

Questfags were attracted by two things: subject matter and writers. Certain writers could just snap people up because they were so good people would try their quests regardless of subject matter, but generally you need a convergence of subject matter someone likes and writing they can at least tolerate. These two things may not meet all the time.

For example, Todd plays Homeless Mutant Quest. He's pretty invested in it after a while, and eventually it ends or dies or whatever, I dunno what happened to the actual HMQ. Todd just goes on with his life. Maybe one day he might check /qst/ if he remembers it exists, but there's no guarantee that there'll be a thread about that subject matter, and there's even less of a guarantee that there'll be a thread about that subject matter with writing Todd enjoys.

This is why 95% of /qst/ is dead threads shuffling off the board. There's only ever going to be a handful of successful quests at once, and out of that, there'll only ever be so many active ones at once.
>>
>>50840697
My question was about questfriends on /tg/ though
>>
>>50840690
Wow, that is an impressively poor level of reading comprehension and delusion you have, anon.
>>
>>50840690
I don't disagree, but the quest formula is very...I'm looking for a phrase that isn't "clickbait", but in a way, that's exactly what it is. It's clickbait to play a game you might enjoy.

I find it somewhat moronic that people playing tabletop-styled games on the board for playing tabletop games got so much hate, but shunting them to their own board where they'll die off slowly and painfully is arguably a worse punishment than just saying "No Quests or we'll ban you", and I can't imagine most questfags see it as anything but a slap to the face.
>>

I can guarantee that if I make a thread on /tg/ now to play some traditional RPG with dice it will die not by mod's hand but from lack of interest from posters such as you.

/qst/ is so poorly handled and moderated, I'm pretty sure it's the result of one of the seven or eight dedicated ban-evaders getting a mod position and just enacting their spite on a grand scale.

>>
>>50840750
To be honest, I think the mods will probably delete it.

If they don't, anti-questfags will whine about it, and questfags may actually jump in given the chance to play a game that isn't hamstrung by /qst/'s retarded design choices.
>>
>>50840750
Hopefully you can, it will be nice to see quests back on /tg/.
>>

I think the twist will be controlling multiple characters from a 3rd person POV to be "not a quest" even though the 2nd person single character formula of quests just works.
>>
>>50840937
>He can't read
The point is for him to make a thread that's just playing regular tabletop games, not a quest.

The argument/theory is that mods won't delete it because it's not a quest, but it'll die because nobody wants to play it.
>>
>>50840982
>>50840973
But there are numerous quests where you control multiple people and run by tabletop rules.

So yeah, Id like to see quests come back, even under a different name.
>>
>>50840982
I think they'll argue that it's basically a quest.

Quests have systems after all. A WoD quest and a game of WoD where everyone's contributing to one character are the same thing pretty much.
>>
>>50841036
Quests aren't even strictly one character, that is just most popular.
>>
>>50841017
Why not just go to quest?
>>
>>50841050
To prove a point.
>>
>>50841050
Because /qst/ is, ironically, very badly designed for playing roleplaying games.
>>
>>50841050
Quests aren't 24/7.

>>50841117
User IDs encourage poor behavior and player grudges while not actually working to discourage samefagging.

Thread per QM limit + the slow movement of the board means you simply can't run your game on a regular basis, sometimes you'll end up waiting for a full week or more before you can make another thread, no matter how ready and willing you or your playerbase is.

Obscure nature of the board itself means low player circulation and extremely low chances of your game actually picking up, which leads to those few players you do attract getting bored because ultimately questing is about discussing shit with a load of other people.
>>
>>50841207
The thread limit is just a ploy to hide how farcical /qst/ is.

If it didn't exist, the entire board would just be old threads for the same ten or so active quests slowly being nudged down the catalog.
>>
>>50841207
The first two are real design flaws.
>>
>>50841256
Yeah, the last is just a basic conceptual flaw that was always going to kill the board eventually.

>>50840537
Not my fault I got rejected...I think, since you don't get an email saying you're not taken.

I actually spent time on that application, motivated and all.

>>50838727
But that would require bringing back quest :^)
>>
>>50841519
There were no quests before nazi mod.
>>
>>50841256
And the last is why the concept of the board is self-defeating as a place to play quests
>>
>>50841722
Historically, there were numerous. Ruby and dwarf quest both occurred pre nazimod.
>>
Jesus these threads fill up quick.
>>
>>50841903
The last point just confirms that quests would die regardless of what board they stay once novelty and fresh blood runs out.
>>
>>50842103
Except they didn't. Because there IS fresh blood on other boards. /qst/ is just too obscure to attract many people.

Also, it's not a matter of popular threads always dying. I know some of the olden days popular threads managed to finish on /qst/. It's a matter of the board itself just not getting new people after those quests are over.
>>
>>50842103
Bah, they seemed able to sustain themselves indefinitely wherever they are home grown. Went strong for over eight years here.

They just don't transplant into a vaccuum well, due to critical mass math.

Funnily enough, this applies to all /tg/ content. Any topic here when seperated from its board is slow as fuck. Just look at d&d forums.

D&D would probably do worst than /qst/. It'd be /po/ levels of activity.

40K and MtG are the only things that could maybe sustain a board by themselves. And even then, there'd only ever be like fifteen active threads at most.

>less dumb smut like redeemed succubus threads and 'elf slave wat do'.

We still have both of those though.

Pretty often, actually.

And we have even more "Only good elf is dead elf" or "excuse me commissar" threads.

We have less of that crap and it's often reported and deleted very quickly
>>
>>50842308
Man the mods are so slow on /tg/ you have to contact them on irc of you want a deletion time of less than 24 hours.

Nazimod proved that is the preferred situation
>>
>>50842465
While no moderation was preferable to nazimod, that has nothing to do with the conversation on whether the mods are quick.

Causative factors aren't what is being discussed.

Dawn of war threads should be banned, they are not talking about any system and only a /tg/ setting is what separates them from going to /v/ where they belong, same with threads about Tolkien and G.R.R Martin (literature board), stat me's (that dead space one was fucking stupid) and meta threads like this one

I'd rather have more immediate moderation.

/pol/ shit and shitposting festers where a mod can cut it out easily.
