/vr/ might be the only place on the site where there can be decent vidya discussion.
Lol. Lmao even.

Anybody know what's up with the marble table anon on /vr/-the guy posting pics of game boxes, with little post-it notes saying "hello vr"?
Half the board hates him and i dont know why, hes just a blogposting gooner to me, so ig theres some edrama im missing.
He's an attention whore who adds nothing to discussions other than showing off his collection of mostly bootlegged games, and mods do fuckall about him since banning him would drive down traffic on their already dying board.

Also, he samefags:

I'm posting here once more due to the migratory patterns of 4chan users. Apparently, moderators on the /jp/ board have changed the board to a 14 day autosage. The common theory is that this is to combat a necroposter that was bumping threads to quickly get a Hololive general off the board any time it was at bump limit. This has instead lead to the (probably) same guy spamming Hololive threads to bump threads off the board. It has become so bad that talks of leaving have begun and /jp/-centric altchans are now advertising on /jp/ specifically.
The thread where the war between men who love fake women is here.

Didn't you already have a civil war over vtumors and that's how /vt/ was made?
How are vtumor threads, and even fucking generals apparently, still allowed on that board.

Last I looked there were still generals on /v/. This has happened every time they've tried making a containment board, a contingent of stubborn autists decide "but I want to post this HERE" and refuse to move over. It's one of many reasons why containment boards don't work.

There are threads not big enough to survive the posting frequency of generals like the cripple girl fucker general #3456094. So they're in this awkward spot of wanting to bundle something like puzzle games, but also not having to go to /vg/ in which the thread just dies. The solution would be to clean up the useless threads on /v/ so a puzzle game thread would last on its own, but jannies want to goon so the DOA thread isnt going to die.

A thread on /v/ without a bump lasts for 25~50 MINUTES before falling off page 10, the variable minutes being based off of the timezone (less time during peak NA times, more time during general-to-peak EU times).
A thread on /vg/ without a bump lasts for 4~5 HOURS all around before falling off page 10, outside of horrible events such as multiple gacha games getting big updates at the same time, at which point it might fall to 3 hours at worst.

People on /v/ just generally don't want to leave for /vg/ for three reasons:
A) It's more chaotic, has board culture rather than thread culture and is less streamlined/contained, chaos can be fun.
B) Homeboard, similar to how /vg/ has an issue where people squat down in a general and start discussing their life and interests instead of the game, but for an entire board.
C) Being afraid of a board because of something you read and blindly believed without confirming it yourself, and are now avoiding it for such a reason.
 
/vr/ might be the only place on the site where there can be decent vidya discussion.
10 years ago maybe. Gen 6 inclusion probably didn't help and should've warranted a /vr2/ board just for it. Also a lot of eccentric schizos, some of which will babble on about how CRT's not being mainstream was a government conspiracy.
It's funny due to the fact that moot created /vr/ with how utterly detested he was with /v/ back in 2013 and now /vr/ is even far worse then the state of /v/ was in 2013.

Give /vrpg/ a chance if you're into rpgs, it's slow but surprisingly decent for 4chon standards.
Slow is good. The speed of boards like that and /vm/ are far better, actually more resembling of movement of /v/ in mid 2000's. Still, you can find your general muck throwing schizo that has no issue of completely destroying threads through derailment in them, but its not as frequent as other boards. There was a discussion of Everquest on /vm/ that was frequent for past few years that got utterly destroyed by one dude since late 2024 who became incredibly obsessed with a specific server who had a tranny owner until everyone was chased away because it became his soapbox believing anyone who told him to shut up to be said tranny. Same goes for /vrpg/ like the FFVIII "R = U" schizo. He's like Beetlejuice. You name him or said theory three times and you'll summon him to a FF thread no matter what board.

Reminder I was 100000% right
nah, everything became shittier for the regular poster so you weren't right at all.
nothing changed for the jannie pets shitting up the place though, but if you a regular user expect a ban until you conform to the redditeur etiquette now but you are allowed to say nigger and faggot, that's it, but don't say it against the janny or their pets or you vill be banned, untermensch.
