What do you think about the current state of /vp/? Should this

>>32598120
Reduce the catalog to 7 pages or leas outside of hype season, get competent janitors who will enforce the rules more and delete useless/substanceless threads, set higher standards for what's required to justify making a new thread (e.g, no threads where you ask one random obscure question), I'm sure there's other shit I'm not thinking of atm

Yes, /vp/ would become less active, but at least the content posted here would be of actual quality. I'm getting fucking tired of scrolling through pages and pages of the above threads. It's sickening.

I miss the time we had weekly lore generals...

>>32598183

I am so tired of reading "barafag BTFO" and stupid starter wars. They are the worst part of the entire board, it's not even fun shitposting, it's just boring reading the same shit day in day out.

Its fucking shit.

Tumblr is responsible for most of the userbase here. Just look at the drawthread. Once dominated by cismales is now full of transtrending snowflakes advertising their shitty art.

And there is literally a pokemon go general, and shiny hunt weekend is back and more cancerous than ever. Man I miss the old days..

/vp/ should be deleted altogether. All game discussions go to /vg/, showderp ceases to exist, anime discussion goes to an /a/ general and waifu threads can go to /c/ and /trash/.

Nothing of value would be lost. This board is overrun with faggoty aneurotypicals who don't even play gaymes.

>>32598160

What exactly is this supposed to mean? Do you mean threads that complain about reddit or do you just define "reddit threads" as anything you don't like?

This this this. I'm so fucking sick of all the Verlisfagging, the Candeeveefagging, the starterfagging, the "Haha amourfags here have a piece of Serenapoop" fagging, also all those blank threads with Masuda or that one ashnime writer as OP pic

>>32598436
Also, if /vp/ gets removed, the shitposters will disappear, having no place for their shitposts to get noticed and understood. Only people who want an actual Pokemon discussion will remain.
To be honest the entire board, with its entire filth filtered could easily take up one general in /vg/, maybe two.

>>32598244
>ban two categories of threads that are on topic and don't break any rules
That's not how this works.

>>32598458
You might need one general for main games, one for Mystery dungeon, one for Go, and so on. /vg/ will get pissed about having five Pokemon threads going at the same time.

As a survivor of 2010 /vp/, I honestly think the board as a whole is fine.

Our main problem is spammers. We just need more janitors, not more rules.

>>32598468
No. It all will go in one thread whether they like it or not. GO players can fuck off.

>>32598468
Main games and Spinoffs general. Two generals aren't much, especially when threads on /vg/ fit more posts before it stops being bumped

>>32598468
GO is a dead game anyway and doesn't need any generals, it will not be missed.

Just delete it. Pokemon is dying faster and faster after every gen, the hype season is the only active time. This is especially true in gen 7.

No one plays or discusses the game here anymore, it's just shitposting and autistic tripfagging. It's fine on /v/ and /vg/, and /a/ content can go on that.

Most of that shit has been going on for so long even the slowest mod has realized these are just "stealth" shitpost threads.

>>32598706
>Aside from it being a retarded idea?
Muh franchise wars? That's what mods are for.

Remove frogposters

Get rid of our current incompetent and salty janitors and mods and get some new ones.

Have them stop autosaging/deleting threads that they don't like and have them start deleting threads that actually break the rules (like the soft porn threads that dominate the catalog, and not threads like the "What's your favorite Pokémon who can learn the TM of the post number above you?" thread from the other day, deleted without reason or cause.)

Also they autosaged the meta thread that it caused because they were salty

God, I hate the mods here. They suck balls.

This board is fucking awful during the dry seasons and serves as nothing but a containment board. There's a handful of legitimate generals here like the showdown threads, anime threads, Pokemon go threads, and that's about it.

Most of the board isn't really about Pokemon it's either shit posting, softcore hentai, or people arguing about nothing. I still say change the board to something that allows all monster games like Digimon, Monster Rancher, etc. That would actually give the board something to talk about besides having four threads on whether Lillie is gay and three threads about what chicken Chan's feet smell like. (Not that I mind the hentai but /h/ and /aco/ make it a waste of time since this is a blue board)

Beyond salvation. There was a point when it was at least tolerable to hang around in these boards.

All we have left is post-boredom syndrome, with barely anything worth a damn to discuss, with way too many shitposters abound. Granted, we always had this, but the proclaimed threads everyone whines about only doubled even further, which stagnates this board more than it should.

Permit Digimon, SMT, YKW, etc discussions; as long as you're not hijacking Pokemon threads or asking for the board to get a complete fucking name change

Ban waifu/fapbait threads
Ban crying about smogon
Ban e-celeb/poketuber threads
Ban crying about the reddit/tumblr/other board boogeyman
Mark "edgy" as spam or autoreplace it with some wapanese meme-word
Autosage "what went wrong/now that the dust has settled" threads

Also ban people who think banning shitposts will turn /vp/ into a safe space/hugbox. Those guys are the biggest piles of cancer.

Pokemon isn't weebtrash because it doesn't rely solely on sex appeal to sell (or at least it didn't until gen 5)
>>32600218
"Shitposter". So anyone you don't like. Well guess what, shitting up the board with offtopic trash threads (which is what people did with a cancerous Kirby thread I tried to get deleted a week ago) is the most annoying fucking thing on the site and worse than any of the shit you want to ban people for (which is on-topic threads related to Pokemon).

>>32600254
>my weebtrash isn't weebtrash because of some arbitrary reason I just pulled out of my ass

>>32600279
Pokemon isn't an anime, doesn't rely on sex appeal, focuses on the "monster" aspect, and hasn't devolved to using the "kawaii" moe trash art style yet.

Yeah, okay anon.

SMT is a monster catching game. You could compare & contrast the differences in monster catching mechanics between Pokemon and SMT. You can't do that with a Kirby thread.

Also if you think SMT relies on sex appeal to sell units, then you have no idea what you're talking about. Or you're such a prude that anything that isn't targeted to children implies sex appeal to you.

Never happens

The reason SMT isn't on-topic here is because it isn't Pokemon related, which is a requirement for threads to be considered fully on-topic here.
SMT revolves aroudn romance plots. Even on /v/ people fail to discuss the game itself.

>>32598120

Just because it has a pokemon in the OP doesn't make it on-topic. Fapbait and flamewars don't do anything for the board. And e-celebs and poketubers are barely pokemon related.
