>>1062567 He said he would be happy to merge the original thread, if another one was made, that wasn't "rage bait", and since a new thread exists, he should keep his word.

>>1062572 Make it so.

I found on this on the #GG thread, any chance we could at it as part of the banner?

>>1062547 >positivity I hear it's called "unregretted user seconds" now.

>>>1062508 >It's nice to see you again again you tubby bastard, I have this for you just in case. Had to re-post it because the original still had a bit of audio I failed to edit out.

>>1062714 What did you mean by this?

>>1062728 Big tech no longer wants retention in the form of addiction, so they renamed it to that so "minimalists" dont jack out of their site.

>>1062712 Which is better?

>>1062732 What brought this on?

>>1062714 >>1062728 >>1062732 Are we still talking about King Kong Delivery here?

>>1062733 (check) Number one, and number three are the best I believe, number two is far too stretched and distorted looking. So I would go with either one or three

>>1062728 It's a reference to when Elon Musk coined the term "unregretted user seconds" when he had to alter the algorithm after very publicly losing an argument. >>1062732 I guess you could see it like that. Many users saw it as "stay positive or the algorithm will punish you". They were making jokes using "kind" language to talk about no-no topics. Because how would you quantify "regretted" seconds other than tagging & suppressing terms you personally believe others would "regret" reading? It's just weasel words. >>1062728 Anyway, my reference to that while quoting the word "positivity" is because "unregretted user seconds" was viewed as a demand for positivity. To address the broader topic, I post OC with a few cool anons still around who actually make things, but I don't shy away from negativity. I think getting frustrated with things that are shitty is natural & necessary. People need to vent. They can't all just go beat their wife to let off steam. Consider that they may not have a wife or maybe they're a fag with AIDS so they're too weak to beat anyone. Regardless, rage is /v/ culture. I can see what has driven the suppression of "negative" posts & I don't agree that person should be given a win by limiting others. You can debate the legitimacy of the leaks, but if the thread is bumplocked the assumption is that debate is not allowed. >>1062733 >>1062754 #1 has the most readable dialogue, but "they do it for free" text is still practically illegible. I'd still pick #1 though. Here. I put logos on it in two different ways.

>>1062781 >first pic Make this one the banner, 8chan logo in the shades is just too good.

>>1062733 (Checked) 3 & 1 just like >>1062754 suggested. >>1062781 First option here could work as well.

>>1062781 >>1062803 >>1062856 I actually preferred the second image, but I have no hard feelings about it one way or another.

>made in spite of places like this Literally your own headcanon.

>>1062737 It's mostly self preservation so people don't later vote to force websites to only work for 4 hours a day or something. Zoomers want to feel like their time is being used more efficiently, so algos serve the top content right away and get you slowly bored until you get off.

Mark why are you deleting posts again?

>>1063539 What posts where?

>>1063540 Before 39b37d's 5:48 post, today Mark only deleted willy from our GamerGate thread. Mark deleting Willy is good, Willy and his alter-ego Luciano just troll.

>>1063540 It's a mixup over the Vidya Cheesecake thread. >>1063541 (1063490) >What was deleted? >>1063543 (1063490) >Anon deleted his own post to correct spelling errors but his copy past failed so I reposted his text and then after he remade his post I deleted the superfluous post I had made.

Why was this thread anchored: >>1063672

>>1063791 Someone keeps bringing up the topic every few weeks and it gets tiring hearing "modern game bad" all the time even if it's more true than not, would be my guess.

>>1063804 Well said.

>>1063804 >it gets tiring hearing "modern game bad" all the time Except that's not what the thread is about at all.

>>1063791 It was pointed out in one of those threads, a different one, that there were already five other cultwar-adjacent "le nu-games r bad >>:((" threads on the catalog. They're all kind of written with the same prose and say the same thing, so I assume they're being posted by the same person. The OPs tend to be (1) & Done, and there's rarely any genuine value to come from them.

About dog's permanent bans, don't these totally fuck over anyone using a VPN, because if someone used the same VPN's server, they'd be shit out of luck?

>>1063819 Then how about you merge the threads?

>>1063826 Dog is a monumentally shitty mod, but not really. Most VPN's have hundreds of IP's to choose from.

>>1063857 That doesn't make it reasonable or good mod policy though. I feel like Mark should make him stop this practice. A week or two is long enough to stop the spam, and it doesn't fuck that IP address forever.

>removing discussion about potential platform censorship concerning Nintendo from the Switch 2 thread Gay move, cake kike. I wouldn't call it derailing, its a legitimate concern for the future of the Switch 2.

>>1064371 it deserves its own thread

>>1064371 We should make a dedicated thread documenting all of the homosexual moves of calekike and his jewcy bagel on /vb/

>>1064376 No.

>>1064371 >>1064374 FIRST we are not allowed to make threads dedicated to "bad topics" without them being anchored (If not delete) because it's "Ragebait" so we have to make a general for those types of discussions, as is the case with KCD2. NOW, we cannot have those "bad discussions" in the dedicated general thread for that discussions because it's "derailment" as is now happening with the Switch 2 thread. Mark, make up your mind.
