/jp/ - Otaku Culture

You guys we can't win. 2008-2010 /jp/ isn't coming back and I think... we should just accept it and try our best to enjoy /jp/ as it is now. No matter how shitty it is.

Why can't the ones that were here change it back?

I mean, the ones complaining about it now are the ones that probably lurked it the most back then right?

[Anonymous No.]

I won't. Been here for years and I will never give up. I don't want to see this board getting into a point where the shitposting is considered board culture. Not as long as I am here.

I'll keep reporting and doing my best to make good threads.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9342091
You do know people were shitposting since day one on /jp/ right? Shitposting is and always have been board culture, 2010 was the glory days of shitposting.

You should have tried harder to make a good thread. A barely related gif and a vague question is not how you start a good thread.

Not anymore. The asshole is trying to delete it from existence. Make a thread with the word shitpost in it.

Let's face it, shitposting is dead. There's nothing left for /jp/.

They were fringe shit, not the sole thing the board revolves around like it is now.
And 2011 was the year of the shitpost by the way.

It's like FYAD now. I love FYAD, I love posting in it but it's still a former self of what it once was. You only post there because well it's the best the site has to offer.

[Anonymous No.]

The problem is the new janitors are probably under stress from the staff to stop shitposting and to "bring this board in order".

You can't do that. You can't force quality posts, content or discussions. By over moderation you are simply creating more shitposting from people.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9342085
It won't be the same because a lot of users have left.

Some people will tell you that nobody ever leaves, but they're wrong.

Maybe if we had Zunbar as a mod things would be better. He at least knows how to be balanced and fair when it comes to content but is strict when he needs to be.

>>9342085
There are too many people shitposting in relation to the people making quality (or at least non-shit) posts. The only way anything can be made better is to have a janitor and/or moderator monitor the board 24/7 and actually punish (warn or ban) the people who repeatedly. It sounds mean, but I think it would get this place turned in the right direction.

The shitposters of old still own this board. Even if all of the notable ones are gone. It's time you realize this and join us or simply just suffer day and day while we enjoy ourselves.

That's what I'm trying to do, OP.
It's not working very well...

[Anonymous No.]

I once told myself I'd finally leave once Helen stopped posting.
And yet, here I am. Every time I get fed up decide to leave, I notice a good thread and stick around. Said thread doesn't last, is never as good as old /jp/ threads, and is a drop in the bucket of all this godawful shitposting bullshit, and yet...

[Anonymous No.]

It's true. Fumo threads were the last hurrah.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9342477
This is what roleplaying shitspammers from Shrinemaiden actually believe.

[Anonymous No.]

I guess it's great that the janitor is finally requesting bans but it's not good enough. He needs to realize he can't force better content. Every moderator and janitor has that idea at some point and sooner or later it it's an impossible to reach.

>>9342477
What do you mean? Fumo threads didn't seem as nice (to me) as doll threads. They're both basically the same idea of posing something, taking a picture, and posting it in the thread. Of course in the doll I don't think anyone believes their doll is alive.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9342490
>scattering
Scattered.

There are no notable posters left. Not a single one.

>>9342488
Was she? Even if that's true, it doesn't really matter; Helen was far and away one of the best posters /jp/ ever had.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9342495
Fumo threads were /jp/ defined if you ask me, and you should.
They were/are quirky, weird, and a little creepy, at least to normalfags, but weren't disruptive and everyone there was having a good time. Then after, oh, a half-dozen threads, a hundred haters came out of nowhere and started screaming and spamming about how they were terrible and not /jp/ related and generally just acted like idiots.
/jp/ in a nutshell.

More or less.
See, on almost any other board or forum or whateverthehell, I'd use italics and bold text and that sort of thing. Here, I've just got spoiler tags...so that's what I'll use.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9342571
Like I said, why not look at your word selection and how the post was written?

Is this really the reason why people use spoilers like that? How ridiculous.

We should have a limit on Touhou threads a day. I was never bothered about it until now. I feel sickened that some dude can spam the board with 20 Sane is a slut threads a day and other shit.

As much as /jp/ is a catch for Touhou, it doesn't mean it should be 90% it. Not now and not anymore.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9342575
Well thought-out posts and word selections are important to good posting, but none of that ATTRACTS or delays attention, just makes your post more...enjoyable? Fulfilling? Something like that.

But hey, if you've got a problem with it, nothing I can do about that. It's twenty after four here and I should have been in bed an hour ago anyway.

Personally, I'm actually more fond of neo-/jp/ because while we get more ``shitposting'', it seems to be designed to be actively hostile to that kind of person. Have you ever noticed how they're all either hicks or hicks who moved to large cities so as to no longer be hicks?

[Anonymous No.]

>>9342626

I have, and as long as we're trading observations, have YOU noticed how they can't create anything? When they do, it's just vomitously unendurable, like "Gears of War" or that cartoonist they have (the one that's not a babyfur), or the guy who fancies himself a writer?

Either that or a parasitic appropriation of something that already exists, like the Trilby "Tallman" ripoff, or the pseudo-dada ironic 90s culture mashup videos, or even just lazy junk like "let's plays". Nothing new or good.

I'm done being angry at /jp/, I just play VNs, read LNs, read doujin, and so on without coming to /jp/.

Of course, our mods are themselves normals, which is part of the problem.

It would make us sick but it would make the bad posters sick too, and we'd heal when they left.

It really is probably the only solution.
