No. There is not enough traffic to justify the split. As it is now is fine.
If it is not broken, don't fix it.

I addressed both of those points in post 2.
Traffick would improve if it were re-made, or stay the same at worst.
And in many ways, it is broken. It's been broken for years, but since it was low traffick nobody cared enough to fix it.
And despite what it looks like, our traffick is actually pretty high for an altchan. We could definitely pull this off.

Also considered that. It's not nearly as as difficult to add a board to this site as you may think. Anyone with admin privileges can do it, and it can be done in a short amount of time.
I made this thread now so that we could discuss it and devs would have time to implement it, although I guess it should have been made years ago.

Yeah, so do I, which is why I waited so long to propose it even though I really had the idea for basically exactly this three years ago.
Still, after considering what seems like every potential implication, i think the idea is worth doing.

This has been proposed many times already, I suspect by the same fag.

I do too. And the prospect is negative. No change is needed.

Elaborate.

I strongly disagree. /mlpol/ can do much better than this.

I'm really interested in this. Is there anything wrong with this that I didn't consider in the #2 post?

I've thought long and hard, and I haven't found any detrimental consequences for this move. If you found a potential bad consequence that I didn't address in the post above, please speak up about your concerns.

I'd also like to point out that archiving /vx/ could make the move completely reversible if we don't like how it plays out.

I've thought long and hard, and I haven't found any benefit for that move. Add to that the potential disruptions that will cause and disgruntled poners.
/mlpol/ is fine as it is. Just saying.

I just laid out all of the benefits. I actually had a few more, but I ran out of room, so I'll post more about that later.
>Add to that the potential disruptions that will cause and disgruntled poners.
I considered this in the post above. It would be a simple step for posters to continue their postings on the new boards with virtually no disruption, especially if the change were implemented with due warning and anticipation with the old board archived so that Anons could reference it whenever. Nobody should be excessively inconvenienced by the move.
>/mlpol/ is fine as it is.
/mlpol/ is great. The elements behind /vx/ could be greater.

I'm glad somebody agrees.
Not just for ttrpgs and games, but also just casual roleplay and roleplay threads. I think it's an untapped niche that we as a site could capitalize, especially since roleplay is banned on /mlp/.

Well, that's kind of the point. The current state of /vx/ doesn't encourage content creation or discussion on any of the 4-6 topics it covers, and those topics don't really mix together or complement well either.

That argument would be a lot more compelling if those topics actually got sufficient traffic on /vx/. I know that it's not from lack of interest.

The point is for the topics on /vx/ to actually get traffic and generate content.
Also I think /kx/ would be a good addition to the board.

I want a /k/ board too. I know for certain it would immediately be filled-up with content.
I like /kx/, because the idea of weaponizing schizos has so much meme potential.

I also support the creation of a /k/ board, fellow domestic terrorists horsefuckers.
In fact, it would be so based if we had a thread where we could post pictures of our guns and the insides of our domiciles to pwn the libs. Bonus points if we combine it with an /o/ board. We could call it /ok/ and post pictures of our vehicles and weapons outside of our domiciles as well as discuss public meetups. That would be so based and marepilled, fellow Nazi horsefuckers. What could possibly go wrong?

I'm in more of the camp of making a /kx/, because combining gunposters and schizos makes for a dangerously based combo. It would also be a good way to cultivate a doomsday prepper community. I think /x/ would go better with /k/ them being smushed with fiction and fantasy games as it currently is with /vx/.
There's another thread about a potential /k/ board.

Public meetups are retarded, posting vehicles is retarded. Posting gun and gun info is better.

Consider moving this discussion to Lotus's thread about the /k/ board. This thread is about the proposal to split up /vx/.
