I'm a lifelong gamer who grew up with NES and SNES but sure as shit got PS2, Gamecube, and eventually XBOX. Hell, I have a JP PS2, US PS2 Slim, a PS2 TEST, JP Gamecube, US Gamecube, a fucking Gamecube NR Reader, and XBOX, and an XBOX Debug all in my main gaming setup, so I'm far from a 6th gen hater... But they don't belong on this board. There were so many games for those systems that are simply incongruous with games for the consoles of the 70s-90s that they will totally change the feel of this board.

I've been saying 6th gen should be allowed for years and I'm okay wit the change and I'm laughing at the mentally ill autists too, however I do understand what the actual somewhat well adjusted people are saying, /vr/ did have a nice feel and though I left shortly after the board was created due to it degenerating quickly, I had started to visit again lately and started to get used to it. It is nice that obscure game threads could survive and I like that the userbase was mostly older. There also seem to be a lot of Nip speakers on /vr/, which is nice. So yeah, I understand the inclusion of 6th gen and won't ever care enough to argue about it, but since the mods are making a bunch of boards no one asked for, I don't see a reason against making /v2k/ since they clearly want to gut /v/ and make it a containment board anyway.

Nope.

The majority of people prefer an objective board. A board about arts and crafts shouldn't be split into other boards "cause board culture". That just means that board culture is cancerous and should be kicked out. An arts and crafts board should be arts and crafts. A retro game board should be retro games, which has included sixth gen for some time but the mods have finally caught up.

I don't see how it's any different than before, where you could post those on /v/, /vr/, or /vg/. It's just one new board you can post them on, and since it's even more specialized you'll reach the audience you want far easier there. Plus, where would modern strategy games go before the changes?

What audience was /vr/ going for? It seemed to be going for people who liked playing and talking about old video games, and that hasn't changed. A lot of people who like 5th gen and below also like 6th gen. I grew up with 5th and 6th gen, have played my share of 4th gen, so I like talking about them too. I just don't see it as different as a lot of people do. It's just a board about talking about older video games and as time moves on, more and more games and systems will eventually reach that classification.

whether they split or not i don't really care, as long as the community or respective communities don't turn into the garbage pile that is /v/
>>6781760
it had to be done. look at it from the mods/admins' perspective. /v/'s users are immature youtubekids who post twitter screencaps and borderline porn all day, and they know a significant part of the board wanted an alternative. the fragmentation of /v/ is finally allowing actual vidya discussion. if you go to any of the new boards there are tons of comfy threads with no twittter screencap/eceleb bullshit and anons are genrally happy. They also learned from /pol/ that creating an /eceleb/ containment board wouldn't fix anything, they would just raid all the other boards like /pol/ does. Fragmentation actually works, and it's easier to ban off topic shit because there's no longer as much of a grey area. this is what it's about, easier moderation. this decision has been the only really divisive one and i don't really get why, it's not like older retro threads will just disappear just because you see a GBA one.

Everyone in the thread is talking as if the mods and admin aim to please the users and I just don't think that adds up.
Like what is this website? I cannot make money since obviously nobody ever clicks on the below-spam-even tier ads, and so you have to wonder how the server bill gets paid. I do not have a theory but I think presuming 4 chan is a business and we're the customers, or even a community and we're the members, is like .. maybe wrong? I mean splitting the /v/ board into 9 boards or some shit seems like an obvious troll on them which suggests maybe the site admit wanting the site to destroy itself.

Agreed. Jannyies here have always felt like massive faggots ive been banned here more then anywhere else on the site, and this entire thing feels so astroturfed.

It's been happening at least for a few months, now. "The" GBAautist kept making the bullshit, kept making Mega Man threads featuring a reference to Command Mission or Network Transmission, and always responded to "not retro" with "why are you a wannabe janny, psycho?" An anon tipped me off to the strong possibility that it's not just one autist with a VPN, but rather some gay ops coordination from elsewhere.
