It's been crappy in /tg/ the last few week or so.

Legit threads being deleted, or shitbombed by mod wannabees for not being 40k enough.

There was a giant nationalism/patriotism shitfest which ended up in a circumcision troll thread. It lasted almost 2 days and was never deleted, while lots of other stuff was removed in minutes.

>So, fa/tg/uys and ca/tg/irls who haven't come this way til now, why not?

Well, although this is a very nice place, it's a bit quiet.

>>11300
This site can get some extra posters from 4chan's /tg/ who get mad and decide to leave for good so the janitor is doing great for tgchan.

Today was business as usual for the janitor. He deleted sfw lamia writefaggotry, a paranoia thread, touhoufag delivering dnd content, and other useful contributions, while trollfests went unmoderated. This led to touhoufag trying to out-aspie the janitor by repeatedly posting the same thread, like this:
http://archive.easymodo.net/cgi-board.pl/tg/thread/S13171453
At the same time, the exact same (de-touhoufied) thread was under his close scrutiny with him desperately trying to keep it turning meta (SAN warning, archived thread is a clusterfuck):
http://archive.easymodo.net/cgi-board.pl/tg/thread/13170812
Allegedly the janitor then requested a mod to ban touhoufag, and much derp and drama ensued.

You should know by now that actual good games are not permitted on /tg/. It's D&D and 40K as far as the eye can see.

I don't really cry after Touhoufag. He was a minmaxing faggot but seriously...

Paranoia thread? WTF???!!!

Minmaxing faggotry is /tg/ related, and Touhoufag provides a wealth of solid information to his fellow minmaxing faggots. While my own game priorities don't even come close to aligning with his, I nonetheless highly respect him.

Updated.

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.

Give it up. If you don't like janitor, leave /tg/ as it is clearly not board for you.

>>11325
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.

>>11347
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?

Picture related, tinfoil hattery.

>>11349
I have a much better idea. Make this place awesome and mention it on /tg/ a lot. This way the good posters will eventually leave for here while crap posters will stay on /tg/.

/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/. He's also quite apparently entertained by causing butthurt in people who don't share his vision and all the mods like him because he has results in making /tg/ worksafe. So apparently /tg/ is going to become synonymous with extremely anal and heavyhanded moderation that makes big purle look like anarchist community. This will ensure that only serious people who discuss serious matters will come to /tg/ and anybody who wants to be even sligtly offtopic will be forced to leave.

We had a nice board, but now we have a board with vision.

But hey, to be honest, I don't think it's such a bad thing. With any luck, things might pick up a bit more over here. Catfights seem to have migrated over, and there's a few projects I've been wondering about starting up lately too.

It's a bit hard to get projects started though, in a sense, due to the pace of the board. Which really is almost, but not quite as fast-paced as the mating of tectonic plates.

>It is sad when Gaia Online has better administration and community than /tg/.
>(bullshit, just look at any RPG-related forum but he seems to belive that)

The reason for this is simple. Those boards attach EVERY POST to an account. So when somebody is being a giant faggot repeatedly
they get their asses banned.

It's gone now. Which makes sense, because this is about the time the Janitor normally gets on. The Janitor's not one to let a thread that people are enjoying stay on the board just because it's not /tg/ related.

Honestly? I don't really see what tgchan has to offer. You guys have a lot less traffic here. Shit, there are threads here that are nearly a year old. A fucking YEAR. You move very, very slowly.

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.

So hello, tgchan. I guess I'm going to be hanging out here for a while.

>>11438
Well this place is and has mostly been a spot for quests to run unhindered, but the other boards have become more and more used over time.

So welcome, I guess.

>>11438
Welcome.

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.

Ah, well, all in all, welcome to tgchan.

>>11438
>Shit, there are threads here that are nearly a year old. A fucking YEAR.

No, it wasn't deleted for anything, the poster took it down. The general rule is that only trolling, vehement arguing, and spambots get deleted. I guess if there was a flood of fapfics something would be done, but a single thread is fine.

At least the option exists here. I'm not going to say that lamia writefaggotry thread on /tg/ was the greatest ever, but fuck, it was worksafe and people were being entertained.
