Proposal: Split-Up /vx/
Anonymous
No.6590
6594 6596 6606 6607 7099 7358 9768
/vx/ has been one of more freuently used boards for along time now. The board throws a wide net, attmpting to formally encompass the topics of /v/ and /x/, and informally encompass the concepts and topics of /tg/, /qst/, and arguably /vint/. While the board has seen lots of use in its days, its wide range of topics might also be to its detriment.
For starters, the concept of /vx/ began a continuation of the theme of the April 2017 prank of combined boards being ironically better than their respective parent boards. /vx/ was proposed in response to demand for players who wanted a place to discuss video games and other players who wanted a place to talk about supernatual things, as a means of giving a space for both. The thing is, while ll of the other boards were based on wordplays or jokes on behalf of the 4cuck staff, /vx/ was just kind of based on wanting to fill two niches with just one board. That was fine, as the /v/ and the /x/ posters didn't really get in eachothers way or argue, but they also didn't really interact in any notable way even f they did overlap. Many of th posters appear to stick to their handful of generals. There haven't been any memes that have emerged based on th concept of the usion of /v/ and /x/, or even /tg/ and /x/, as it appears that the concept of mixing fantasy game magic with actual magic isn't as adhesive as originally intended.

Shortly after it was created, /vx/ was coneptually expanded to include all gaming discussion, including /tg/ discussion and /qst/ style pbp roleplay threads. Those are certainly topics that this site benefits from, as all pony altchans have roleplay boards, and roleplay is banned on /mlp/ while ponies are banned everywhere else on 4chan. The roleplay threads take up the overwhelming majority of the boards posts per day, with discarded threads taking the lion's share of the board's catalog. You could even say traditional games and roleplay is the unofficial main topic of /vx/, despite it not being represented in the board's name. /vx/ certainly has a great volume rp posts, but general roleplay discussion has suffered, in part due to being suffocated by the board's other topics: it doesn't help ease of casual rp discussion when you have to first specify that you're talking about fantasy magic over actual magic, and roleplaying games instead of video games. The threads on the board that are aimed towards /tg/-style discussion don't get very many replies. The flags and IDs don't really contribute to those aspects either.
That aside, roleplay definitely has the potential to be a big thing on this site, and I'm certain that we could do better. All the other pony altchans have prolific roleplay boards, and I'm certain /pol/acks have their on unique roleplay ideas too.
Meta-wise, /vx/ is formally-blue (now red) board where posts have both flags and image IDs, similar to /mlpol/. That coflicts with the concept though, because neither /v/ nor /x/ had those components, neither are they necessary for discussion on either board.
Obviously, the inclusion of flags is a nod to /vint/, our sister board. /vint/ was one of the other April 1st 2017 board that everyone liked, being another board that several Anons demanded to have reinstated on 4chins to no avail. "She" was featured in the /mlpol/-tan comic that many of us bonded over in the /qa/ wars as they spilled into [s4s], having met /mlpol/-tan in the darkness of the deleted zone where they encountered the ravenous /z/. The flags were added to sate Anons who wanted to bring /vint/ back, although the board hasn't really satisfied the feel or appearance of the old /vint/, especially since neither /vint/ nor any of the boards it was effectively combined with featured image IDs.

Now, don't get me wrong, /vx/ is my secon favorite board after /mlpol/. I just really think this site could do
>"So what do you propose, faggot?"
I propose that /vx/, with due anticipation and announcement, should be archived in place of other board(s) that better accomodate its many topics. The boards would be separate and based on ideas that mesh together or have cultural sigificance, such as:
>/vint/ ("international vidya"): our sister board which was in high demand for ressurrecion. It already has its wn memes, and even a cute board-tan. Bringing /vint/ back would satisfy the needfor a place to discuss video games (and random pajeeting), while reaffirming this site's committment to 2017 nostalgia. The board should feature flags, but not poster IDs, in spirit of our sister board.
>/kx/ (maybe "weaponized autism"): A dangerously-based idea that was proposed as an alternative to /vx/ as early as 2017. /kx/ would be a radical and mystic hive of schizoposting, and an original hybrid board that 4chins jannies weren't brave enough to create. It would satisfy the want for /x/-tier supernatural discussion and conspiracy theories, while also providing space for this board's currently-untapped potential for gunposting and prepping. The /x/ side of /vx/ wouldn't really suffer at all from being divorced from the /tg/ and /v/ elements, and the big-schizo energy from the /k/ element of the board could serve as a huge bullet-shaped viagra to supercharge the board's discussion and create its own culture. /kx/ would have neither post IDs nor flags, as anonyity is important to it.

>/hp/ (maybe "Horseplay"?): A roleplay board that the bathhouse threads could migrate to and make their own without smothering video games discussion. A roleplay board serves to benefit a community such as ours as it facilitates creation if OCs and other content, which is why other pony altchans give them their own boards. It could also be the place for /tg/ disussion, or CYOAs. /hp/ would have neither flags nor post IDs, as none of its elements (/mlp/, /tg/, or /qst/) have them.

These are ideas I've considered for a while. I wouldn't expect them to be implemented immeditely, but perhaps you guys might take some time to warm up to the idea for the future?

It's explained pretty well by Brit anon in >>10573

Stop intentionally trying to make the experience of other users bad because you're trying to leverage something you want.

That's what you were doing in disrupting the thread. That's actually what you've been doing with the ban evading. Just being an ass in hopes it motivates people to do things you want. That is against the rule, specifically Rule 2. See >>10591

Rule 2: Post in good faith, do not derail threads, and do not be massively disruptive of the experience of others.

This can be summed up as "Don't be a cunt."

You were and are being a cunt, specifically by repeatedly posting in a specific thread in the hopes of annoying several people until they did things you want. You were intentionally disrupting the experience of others in the hopes it would extort them into doing things you want. You're actually still doing that with your ban evading, hoping you can strong arm staff into ending the ban.

Stop. Stop being a cunt.

So you're a social security parasite. Degenerates like you are the reason why that scam even still exists.
Do the country a favor and neck yourself.
>>10566
>And I thought you were serious
He was never serious. He only started the week after I blocked him and told him I never wanted to speak with him again, and by his own admission he only did it to solicit unwanted contact again. This was of course right after he was harassing and belittling me for months and said I was "dead to him" for daring to participate in a board game without his permission.
And then he acted all buttblasted and spammed the thread for months because I wasn't immediately 120% friendly with him and constantly begging for his approval like I had been for years. What a degenerate.

>Because he (admin) has broken all these rules, as have a number of others.
So just because Jews eat children, it's okay for you to eat children too?
Just because someone else did something in the past doesn't make it okay for you to do it too.
>You're just an idiot
Funny, the degenerate who can't hold a job is calling other people idiots.
>far worse
Your spamming, harassment, derailing and threats have affected everyone on the site. You are the worst creature here by leaps and bounds since Zald, and he wasn't nearly as petty. Even the boomer is better than you.
>egregious shit, it's the worst thing ever and I should be ashamed
Yes. You should be. Everyone is sick of your sewage.
>Do you base all your decisions on what will bring you benefit?
Employed people care about spending their time wisely. Of course a degenerate parasite like you wouldn't know.
>And I thought YOU were! You think I knew or cared what restaurant you were at? Put your fucking phone down, you idiot!
What a shameless freak.
>which is why we find ourselves here today
No, you are spamming the board because you are a degenerate loser with nothing better to do. Nobody else would make such a fool of themselves over a board game.
>expecting to be catered to on the internet
That's you. That's what you are doing.
>tolerate a bit of counter-play
They've been banning spammers like you since the beginning. The /jp/sies, the donkey show, Zald, Nigel, all of the spammers were banned.
>I could have kept at it
So you are able to work, but you leech off of taxpayers instead. Parasite, through and through. A gangrenous limb.

Wait, when did you block him, and when did he contact you?

I think he contacted me and a few others around September of 2024. I only invited him to the game something like 6 weeks later I think. At the end of October, I believe.

I blocked him like a couple weeks before he joined the game. This was after weeks of cryptic, threatening posts and him shaming me for playing. It was either some time after mid September, or early October. I remember it, but not exactly, because he had taken it up on himself to harass me while I was recovering from a Cat 5 hurricane hitting my home and the power was out.
That's all I want to mention here though.

>I'm talking about the /sp/ thread with the cute pink scene-pony.
Oh, okay. See, this wouldn't have even occurred to me, because that thread hasn't been posted in for over a month, and I completely forgot it even existed. The last thing I remember you talking about in regards to /sp/ was that game thread you were asking for. This is why it helps to actually be specific when referencing things. You know, as opposed to speaking in vague riddles all of the time and just assuming that everyone can read your mind. If you're referring to a specific thread, just link to the thread; it's easy to do. Just to show you how it works, here is a link to the exact thread you're talking about: >>>/sp/25515 →

It's the same as when you said "the hidden place" instead of just saying /Test/ if that's what you meant. You keep tap-dancing around the edges of every conversation, speaking in hazy insinuations, and expecting everyone to just somehow parse the truth from your inarticulate ranting. Old Testament prophecies are less vague than the gobbledygook you post.

>I can explain what this means in detail, but you lot have displayed a lack of appreciation for lengthy descriptions that make you look bad, so I'll decline.
Actually, what I have a lack of appreciation for is the way you keep writing reams upon reams of text, yet always dance around the edges of subjects instead of just saying what is actually on your mind. Stop speaking in riddles and just state, clearly, whatever the hell it is you're trying to say and maybe you'll be taken more seriously, or at least listened to.

>Oh, is this a court of law where I'm forced to respond in a certain timeframe? I thought you wanted me to leave. Sorry that I took your advice for a day or so.
What the hell are you even talking about? Here is what I actually wrote in the post you quoted:
>We actually have had a lot of fun over the years.
This was in response to another post, made by a completely different anon, that was not even part of the main conversation. It wasn't addressed to you, and there's nothing in there about forcing you to respond to anything, inside or outside of any particular timeframe. I'm at a loss as to how you even got any of this from what I wrote. Maybe you meant to quote a different post?

>I do miss the days when we all got along, and would like it if we got back to those days, but in order for that to happen certain attitudes about what is permissible to post will need to change. That, or the rules need to.
This goes back to what I was saying earlier: that your biggest problem is an unwillingness to accept any kind of limits being placed on you, or any consequences for your ridiculous behavior. Everyone has to accept your terms and play by your insane rules. Sorry, chief; I'm afraid that's not how things work around here.

I have a proposal for you:

How about, instead of just tap-dancing around making all of these mysterious insinuations, you just clarify whatever the fuck it is you're so angry about in plain, readable English so we can all move on. You keep insinuating, both here and in private chat, that you're carrying some sort of Samson option in your back pocket that would completely obliterate Lotus, Pupper, myself, the /mlpol/ moderation team in general, and whoever and whatever the fuck else has had your taint in a tornado for nigh these many years.

So, out with it. Let's hear it. Everything you've got, let's just get it all out in the open. No holds barred. Go as far back in time as you want, get as personal as you want, post links and/or screencaps where appropriate. All I ask is that you please be detailed and specific. Take as much time and as many posts as you need. As long as your posts are coherent, clear, specific, and detailed, and could be read and interpreted by anyone even if they are unfamiliar with the specifics of events you're describing, they won't be deleted.

However, this means no innuendos, no insinuations, no vague allusions, no speaking in riddles. Answer the following questions plainly and clearly: Who has your rectum so ruffled? What did they do that got your booty so bothered? Where and When did this anal agitation occur? How did these events get your hindquarters so harried, and Why is your derriere so distressed as a result of this incident and/or incidents? Again, please be specific.

Who's behaving shamefully? You asked for your day in court, I'm giving it to you. Instead of speaking your piece, you're deflecting and continuing to accuse others of somehow not playing straight with you. All you're proving here is that you're the "little bitch" that you've been accusing everyone else of being. You don't have any valid grievances, nor is anyone attempting to silence or censor you; you're just a malignant asshole and you can't handle being actually called out on it.
