So, I've been thinking about how the majority of /tg/ doesn't utilize tgchan / quest.lv here. Which is a shame, because alot of stuff that DOES relate to the board can be talked about and posted here, even if it breaks the 'worksafe' rules of standard /tg/. Also, various things could be done in a more organized and paced manner here, without the need for a bump every 4 hours.

So, fa/tg/uys and ca/tg/irls who haven't come this way til now, why not? Resident posters who have been here forever, anything you'd like to say to new folk coming in?

Where does everyone want to see things go for /tg/ and tgchan?

This is a problem? Hell, until this OP, I don't think I've seen a W40K reference in ages. It's quite refreshing to have threads that don't get bombed to hell with "HERESSSSYYYYYY".

Besides, tgchan is 99% original content, and /tg/ recently decided they hate that and had to expunge it all.

I'd guess that you're mistaking one sagefag for the entirety of /tg/, which is an obvious but common mistake. I don't actually know, though, because I've not seen any of that sentiment, so I can only guess at what you're talking about.

The suptg archive purge was a pretty big keystone in it, but drawthreads in particular have been increasingly getting mass-downvoted and flooded with hate and "lol i report u". (The "rules for drawthreads" troll also spawned a hell of a lot of threads raging about such.) Quests there have had that for ages, of course---Tau Quest in particular got really flooded. The only OC I can really remember mostly getting a pass was the Thri-kreen fapfic from the preying mantis avatarfag, because /tg/ are totally not furrier than a Sergal's backside.

I believe even the 1d4chan article for Ruby Quest has been cut back, but since that site won't load right now I can't check.

I may be a little out of date since, you know, I kind of gave up on the cesspit. A quick search via easymodo shows that Greenmarine still sticks around. Apparently they banned Liar.

The sup/tg/ purge was due to technical and financial issues.

The rest isn't something I noticed. Liar's ban is temporary, and was issued for avatarfagging, which is fair enough.

I agree that tgchan is full of the original content, and that is an amazing thing. In fact, it's something I feel /tg/ has been failing on greatly lately. Most of the original content /tg/ has been getting has been... well, fucked up shit. I think mainly I'd like tgchan to be a more widely used forum for /tg/'s good original content. Hopefully not bringing any of the real terrible shit over.

I utilize both /tg/ and Quest.lv, myself. Admittedly I am somewhat new (having learned of the site through /tg/MUD) but I see uses for both places. Quest is good for quests and associated fun, whilst /tg/ is good for /tg/ discussion even if admittedly riddled with trolls (though it's 4chan and that's really no surprise.)

For all the shit, there's still occasionally real gems of threads. Pic related.

Yeah. It's a bit of a toss up for me. While I agree with most of what it's saying, my brain automatically associates the image choice with the really immature posters who roll that out after tolling their hardest to derail a discussion that had been previously quite civil. It's disheartening to think that I might actually be more mature than the moderation, and I don't know how that's going to affect my willingness to post in the future.

I guess I'm just confused as to what brought this on. We had a janitor floating around to keep down the "elf slave girl wat do" threads, and things were actual doing pretty good. I thought to actually haul mod intervention into /tg/ someone on the level of jim profit's trolling would have to be going down, but there wasn't anything like that that I saw. The only thing I could think of would be that a few disgruntled posters got pissed that there was too much not-warhammer and whined until a mod was dispatched, which doesn't really inspire confidence in the system either.

I can't really describe it, but things FEEL different over there, and I'm not sure if it's in a good way yet. Quest threads, video game threads, draw/writefaging, and homebrewing are all MOD APPROVED, which is a good change, but I still have this worry that just won't seem to shut up. And that's worrying.
>>
No. 7787 ID: f35afd

Well, I feel largely the same way. It feels like someone is watching me when I post, instead of me just having fun with a bunch of random strangers and talking about nerd stuff. I think we should get a group to start using the /tg/ board here. It's not used for anything, it's moderated extremely passively, and it's not work safe, so a lot of the problems with /tg/ being a blue board wouldn't be an issue here.
>>
No. 7791 ID: f03d2b

>>7784
This is silly talk and quite frankly you should probably feel silly.

/tg/ didn't get cracked down on because people whined that there was too much non-40k. It happened because a significant portion of the threads getting posted were porn dumps, fetish discussions, spam, trolls, or mixtures of the above.

And compounding this, whenever the janitor/mod steps away, /tg/ goes full retard and everyone starts posting porn and breaking rules and altogether acting like first graders whose teacher has stepped out of the room.

>>7787
Splitting off from /tg/ is just going to suck for everyone. /tg/ proper loses contributors, and the splinter group winds up with only a sliver of /tg/'s userbase.

If you're willing to pick up shop and head over here for the primary reason that tgchan is NSFW, why not just take care of your NSFW needs here or elsewhere and keep your /tg/ discussions on /tg/?

It does suggest an easy course of action, though. Go to other boards and report anything that's arguably not related. Eventually our mod gets reassigned elsewhere.

>It happened because a significant portion of the threads getting posted were porn dumps, fetish discussions, spam, trolls, or mixtures of the above.
I wouldn't consider the proportion to be significant at all. There would be one thread with fetish and porn late at night sometimes. Spam was infrequent. Trolls were always interesting prompts to discussion rather than malicious, and I actually quite miss them. Excluding religion and edition war trolls, anyway.

>/tg/ didn't get cracked down on because people whined that there was too much non-40k.
Based on how the mod was telling people not to report /tg/ related stuff, I'd think that that was at least partially the reason.

>And compounding this, whenever the janitor/mod steps away, /tg/ goes full retard and everyone starts posting porn and breaking rules and altogether acting like first graders whose teacher has stepped out of the room.
Not really. Sometimes there's a little bit of this if people have been extremely displeased at the mod, but in general there's like, one thread, tops, and then everything's back to normal.

He was specifically referring to Quest and vidya threads. And I'd imagine that for every person that reported something for not being 40k, there's another person who reported or whined about there being too much 40k.

>Not really. Sometimes there's a little bit of this if people have been extremely displeased at the mod, but in general there's like, one thread, tops, and then everything's back to normal.
Admittedly, it's gotten better in the past couple weeks, but I'd chalk that up to the increasing moderation -- not any maturation on /tg/'s part.

But the point stands that for awhile this was happening, and it still is to a degree. /tg/ had its chance to prove that it could keep its collective boner in its pants without needing a mod to stick it back in, and they failed with flying colors.

I am so entirely with you on this. This has to be my number one peeve with /tg/ as it currently stands.

>It does suggest an easy course of action, though. Go to other boards and report anything that's arguably not related. Eventually our mod gets reassigned elsewhere.
I can see the point you're trying to make, but just because there's some disgruntled troll reporting things he doesn't like doesn't mean I should have to go and shit on someone else board with the exact same behavior to get my playground back to order. It's not even a permanent solution. If the reporters on /tg/ whine louder than I do, things go back to being exactly as they were, and I don't even want to think about the effort that such a shouting match would require.

>"I want to run DBZ RPG" is trolling
>I think a DBZ could be great.
>roll for HNNNNGGGGAAAAAHHHHHH
And now were getting into the realm of differing personal tastes. In short, some people like different things in their gaming and we should all just learn to accept that so we can get along better. Just because you find something juvenile doesn't mean someone else can't have fun with it or that they are out to troll you with it.

>Spam was infrequent.
>You have -got- to be trolling me.
Spam was constant but it was just something that went on in the background (except for the surge of elf girl threads before the janitor get assigned, or the hte roboassaults before captcha was implemented). Ditto for the porn. It's been there, but I rarely see any full on porn threads, not even the 'constant furry porn flood' and someone is always whining about. I haven't seen a dragonborn breasts thread in at least 8 months. Even the recent interest in Tyranids porn only produced maybe three serious threads, tops. There's porn and trolling, but it's a tiny percentage of the posting going on.

The reveal was done perfectly, too. He telegraphed it a bit by having an innkeeper sniff when he first interacted with the girl, and then I asked for a list of the girl's belongings. Next post, he gives a full inventory, full of mundane stuff, and an account of what she was wearing, and right under that, a entry that read: [1] Wad of shit, in underpants.

This is pretty much what happens for all strictly rule-oriented moderation. Moderators stop using their initiative and start following rules as if they were immaculate and set in stone, and the userbase likewise starts being pedantic about the letter of the law rather than the spirit and complaining about fun threads because technically they might not be allowed. It's some horrible kind of abstract authority-worshipping human reasoning flaw that I've seen crop up all over the place.

"What the mods feel like" might leave uncertaintly as to where you stand relative to the ill-defined line, but with mods working like actual fuzzy human beings you'll probably just get warned or deleted if you stumble over it. Tie that line down, and you get trolls gaming right up to it, and people mistakenly stepping over it getting banned forever because they should have known, the rules were clear derp!

Feedback is helpful to the health of any community. It helps to address power issues, brings widespread issues to the forefront, and lets the people up top know what the fuck they're doing right.

Without metathreads, /tg/ is in a state where almost any thread with have meta in it, decreasing the overall quality of the board. Certainly the Janitor is doing some good things, by removing spam and bad threads, but he's also targeting personal pet peeves.

Metathreads are needed for a healthy board.

It is sad when Gaia Online has better administration and community than /tg/.

I feel this is by far the most appropriate place to organize on this matter, so I suggest those most intimately involved in the matter do so. At this very moment there is a metathread on /co/ about this matter, which I think is a misstep. It gives us all a blackeye to act in such a way. So, if you see a metathread, try to mention this thread and we'll try to get everyone here. Then perhaps enough deleted threads can be organized to give Moot a proper report on events.

The problem I see is that threads do nothing. Unless there's something I'm missing, I propose that at the beginning of each player's turn, each player puts a post adjacent to a thread or an other post, and never mind the d20 thing.

In light of that proposed change, I propose this additional rule: If any contiguous body of posts and threads contains two or more threads, an Disagreement breaks out. The Janitor deletes all posts and threads in that cluster.

The problem is I can see no reason the snake would ever want more than one thread to be active in this case. Perhaps the number that each player must post should be equal to the number of threads? I dunno.

Anyone remember when touhou was funny, rather than FFFF SAGE REPORT NOT RELATED? Few do these days, it seems.

But to be honest, a lot of the current bitchfest has some qualities concerning it that make me suspect that the ban on lamias, touhou, and most any even mildly suggestive material is the result of a moderatorial decision, and that there is a set of rules concerning "board appropriate" material for the janitor, that due to some odd decision isn't showed to the public.

So basically, whatever gets deleted is against the rules, but we don't get told what the rules are either.

moot wants to (BIG SUPRISE) actually make money with 4chan. But if left unmoderated it would be too hard to swallow for 50+ roleplayers with too much free time (bullshit, just look at any RPG-related forum but he seems to belive that). So here's the heavy moderation that gets aplauded by the new audience.

/tg/ might actually be testgroup to see how it works. Eventually we'll see the same level of moderation in /co/ and even /int/.

That whole money thing made me seriously think about a tinfoil hat theory I saw on /tg/.

Moot's aching for money. That we all know. And we all know how butthurt people get over the subject of what's board related, what is allowed on "my /tg/", who is bad and who is good for the board, et cetera. So basically we have a lot of people with grudge lists tracking back to 2008 aching for the janitorial and mod positions too. And we all know how much disposable income fa/tg/uys seem to have. So, why not rent the janitor stool for a little windfall?

/tg/ has the advantage ofng on 4chan which means people spill to it from unmoded boards (/co/, /v/) which is what actually brings people to 4chan in the first place. But eventually this board might become much better than /tg/ which will atract people on their own

Janitor isn't going to leave /tg/. Never. He's the kind of asshole that didn't take the job because he loved /tg/ that much, he took it because he has a vision of /tg/.

So apparently /tg/ is going to become synonymous with extremely anal and heavyhanded moderation that makes big purle look like anarchist community.

Although I may start coming here from now on. The /tg/ janitor and his hatred of all things chitiny and scaly (balanced out by his love of people posting links to /b/ that have fuck all to do with /tg/) grows wearisome, and damn it, if I'm going to write thri-kreen fapfics or whatever I want to be able to post them without getting banned.

Look out for tiny deers runnning around, we don't like them being stepped on (although spraying fluids on them is awwright).

Make sure you check the quest wiki in case you are looking for something to read through if you have too much time.

Feel free to spread paranoia and conspiracy theories in the discussion threads. Depending on the related quests, staniol caps will be handed out at the entrance.

Apart from that, we have a nice theater with regular drama shows and some famous actors appear on stage every night. Drama queens and drag queens abound.

If that's not your thing, join the IRC and be ready to watch some draw-magicks unfold, at least whenever our good draw-fags happen to be in a good mood and feel like streaming/paint-chatting.
