They are? now I feel old

I mean, this is a pretty extreme case, but the general notion remains. Use of "anon" for addressing everyone is a particularly idiotic thing to do on a message board where people have usernames.

And yeah, me too man.
Wait until you see a WhatsApp group where the admin calls himself a "janitor"

Also the other tag was given to me by Infinitron for saying rtwp is better than TB so it doesn't actually mean anything either. Another example of a mod abusing their power as tag give to further their own agenda.

for saying rtwp is better than TB
Except that's not exactly what happened, is it?

I wouldn't call "spamming the same Larian-hating post hundreds of times" just "saying rtwp is better than TB".

EDIT: Jesus Christ, I'm a bootlicker now... what have I become?

I'm sure Infinitron will treat you extra special for standing up for him

This is the kind of person that comes from 4chan. They're not sending their best people.

Wife Scholar's shtick is unique even for the chans, though I agree it's better suited for an image board with disposable threads since it's just a bunch of off-topic spam on a proper forum.

I think it is just some alt account somebody made to tease Pink Eye.

He could easily have adapted his idiosyncratic style for the forums, most of his gags are very old. Reminds me a bit of eccentrics like Gromnir. HA! Good fun! It's just the APP (anon-per-paragraph) that doesn't work at all here.

Aren't Zoomers supposed to be incline, as opposed to Millenials?
They're still children. Who the hell knows what they're going to be? Given the world they are growing up in I'd say they'll be even more damaged and deranged than millenials but we'll see.

Something about being anonymous makes people just say edgy boring jokes for the sake of it instead of actually contributing. Also everyone will contradict themselves and play a character whenever they want to because they can't be held accountable to their horrible opinions. 4chan is horrible. I'll stick around here.
Not to mention nobody on 4chan, especially /v/, can form a coherent sentence. Their lingo consists entirely of ready-made catchphrases like "oh no no no no", "now that the dust has settled", "the absolute state of x", and listing off shit with the greentext function. 4chan likes to think it's better than Reddit because you can say "nigger", but they're really both the same hotbed of brain-dead NPCs.

Zoomers will be the most fragmented generation. We have access to the biggest variety of information yet, meaning some of us will wise up to the (((problem))) and seek out the Solution, some of us will become complete degenerates, and some of us will be stuck somewhere inbetween. 4channers belong in the third category, i.e. they talk about being "trad" and "redpilled", but still watch child porn and play vidya 8 hours a day

Huh? I use it to contact my family and real life friends.
They don't really use WhatsApp in the USA. They rely on actual sms on their iPhones or some shit. The only people I met who even knew what it was were those who knew someone outside the States, like a Mexican fuckboy or an European relative. If you pay attention to recent TV series, American people never use WhatsApp, while in European ones it's normal to use its interface and standard colors while showing a written conversation.

Also, they don't love and respect Zuccky as we do. Gather all my data, Zuck, do wathever you want with it! Love you! :greatjob:

I don't know, if it's about privacy, it's not like I keep it secret that my mom had laptop problems yesterday or that my high school friends are having another reunion. You're basically forced to give money to any of the big tech if you want to have any semblance of social life anyway. Everyone here use it and it's not like the app is slow or anything. I don't see why anyone would make a big deal of using WhatsApp, making it look like as if I support reddit's banning policy or that I use onlyfans to sell my nudes to thirsty fat landwhales.

/vrpg/ exists solely so that the next time /v/ermin demand a containment forum for the endless, diaper-shitting furry smash/nintendo direct threads, the tranny jannies can point at it and say "but we just made a new board!"

As for the overall quality of each respective community on an average day, /vrpg/ has threads like this:

whereas GRPGD has threads like this:

I see /vrpg/ has the same issues defining an RPG as we do.

Curiosity got the better of me so I decided to check it out. It's either gimmick threads to have an excuse to waifupost, or bait threads to incite shit flinging. Pretty much any of the threads where actual discussion takes place are about JRPGs.
In other words, it's literally just /v/ except people are only allowed to talk about one genre.

They don't own me. I am already a slave to The Wage.
