Yea Forums is being constantly flooded by marketers from clickbait sites pretending to find an article where someone is mad about a game and directly linking it every single time like this thread .
sites have admitted they're doing this on purpose for clicks. PLEASE ONLY ALLOW SCREEN SHOTS OR ARCHIVES. The board is being flooded by these marketers constantly!
This isn't a democracy. You have better chance contacting gook directly.
Leo Davis
Maybe instead of forcing other people to consider your feelings, you should develop more control over them.

Seriously, why would any marketer think Yea Forums is a great place to promote or shill their shit here when that money could be spent on an Instagram influencer and give more bang for the buck than wasting on this NEET riddled website.
Anthony Long
I'm literally gonna give them as many clicks as possible to spite you.
Jayden Lee
Because they have the money to do both, and then more ways you didn't even list, and then a couple more ways you didn't think of, and then two more than that.
Hudson Scott

It's been long proven as incredibly exploitable and anything that causes outrage will benefit from it here when it gives the Idea it will piss off sects of the board you don't like. Case in point:
Julian Allen

i agree with op
because you just make a thread and its instantly on the front page? are you fucking retarded? you just bump it and you have a link on the front page for your clickbait in front of thousands of people instantly.
Kayden Brown
Take them up on their offer
James Jenkins
Wow guys... Look at this awesome article about morrowinds quirky in game books. Its really worth a look!
Are there really people who still don't use adblockers?
Parker Hill
they still benefit from having unique visitors
Bentley Clark
>PLEASE ONLY ALLOW SCREEN SHOTS OR ARCHIVES Fuck that, just ban all "news" that isn't what game/when it comes out, cut the snake's head off so we can be free of rage farming even if it stays on Yea Forums. Ban twitter screen caps while were at it too.
Yes, there are actual retards out there not using Ublock Origin and Adnauseum. I ALWAYS have Ublock Origin enabled and any site that tries to fuck with Ublock I will disable Ublock and use Adnauseum with just to fuck over their analytics.
Daniel Torres
Using pastebin or something else should be bannable. You're not allowed to post magazine scans, you're not allowed to post illegal download links, you shouldn't be allowed to post "website scans" either.
Joshua Green
This will never take off because of how much Data it consumes inb4 >Having a data limit Like it or not most people have a data limit, and as long as this uses 1tb of data if you played 24 hours straight it will never work.
Dominic Nelson
>You're not allowed to post magazine scans, you're not allowed to post illegal download links Where are you getting this, you lunatic?
Andrew Baker
How do they make money? I thought basically everyone used adblock nowadays?
Christopher Morales
No need to ban if anons wise up. Which of course they won't. And you will get contrarian morons who will support clickbait because it's the new dumb culture of this site.
Luis Harris
Posting anything but a direct source to the website should be an instant ban. If you are using pastebin or something similar you are obviously just editing the article to try and create a narrative.
Henry White
Yea Forums, Yea Forums, Yea Forums and /pol/ are probably bottom tier boards in terms of intelligence. There's no sense in trying to change this. Just accept it. It's time to leave this shithole behind.
The only way you can get legit information about video games is from a youtuber
One who isn't being paid for. So find one who is a literal who that has decent taste and give them a listen before they inevitably get found and then their opinions are bought and paid for.

Logan King
Agreed but the faggot mods don't care about the board so expect nothing to be done. Plus we have retards/shitposters like so it's gonna be an uphill battle. Good thing those useless retards we call mods stopped all projared discussion, really cleaned the board up.

Direct links to any news sites should be filtered. The mods have the tools to not allow posts with specific text on them being posted, they just aren't doing anything about it
Connor Nelson
Global Rule #1 Rule #1 for /t/ gets more specific.
>this only applies to /t/ Copyright law applies to all boards as you can see in Global Rule #1. Yeah some stuff will let slide if it's not too noticeable and no one is reporting it. Try starting a game sharing or movie sharing thread and see what happens.
I'm not sure if these web pages are copywritten in the US or how that works. Not linking them (while using their content) is at least breaking Global Rule #1 in spirit.
Social media board when? You can easily have a board for just youtube and twitter.
Owen Martin
The whole model for all this bullshit seems like it's failing to make the money they want it to. Normally companies wouldn't be so shitty to the public, like I get they think they're being cute but it doesn't actually help them by doing that.
Landon White
Oh, so you're literally too stupid to understand how copyright works. Get the fuck out of here, you obvious teenaged summer tourist.
Not a good argument even for a mindless /pol/fagget.
Kayden Ramirez
Wanna know something user, in like 2010 The Escapist got something like 50 million hits a month, a few weeks ago Schrier was bragging that Kotaku got 15 million hits a month. Pewdiepie gets like 300 million hits a month. These dumbshit journofags are toast they've sold out their audience for easy money with clickbait but now their whole business model is destroyed. I'd be surprised if any of these losers are around in 5 years, there's a reason they keep closing down.
Ryder Harris

Nathaniel Ramirez
yea you dont know what the fuck youre talking about dip shit. screen shotting a page is fair use, youre reporting on it. literally every youtube video screenshots web pages to discuss it.
Yea Forums should have a point system where you can vote posts up or down. These votes tied to your IP, if you ever have a negetive ratio you are banned from posting for 1 month. Then it resets and you can try again.
>implying they dont pay for access to post here specifically for marketing purposes Awww
Carson Price

They're not retarded. They're just a board of eccentric geniuses that recognizes the futility of online discussion.
Julian Taylor
I accept your concession.
Joseph Myers
Yeah these people are top tier faggots, they know they're fucked too. Why do you think they got so ass blasted after being told repeatedly on Twitter to "learn to code"? They were arrogant enough to think no matter how shitty they treated the public that we would keep crawling back to them. Instead they have been reduced to a joke, even normalfags shit on them. Imagine dedicating your whole life to journalism, hoping to reach that gate keeper status, only to become a national joke and hated by all, soon to be broke.
Lincoln Perry

>Calling yourself based How much of a fucking tryhard faggot can you be?
Jacob Gutierrez
This isn't reddit you retard we don't do petitions or pleas. Contact admins and get ignored.
It used to be part of Yea Forums culture to always provide archive links but there's been a recent surge of newfags complaining about it. What the fuck happened to this place, because it's nothing like how I remember it.
Jace Watson
>Yea Forums should become /r/eddit no and fuck off
Sounds like someone would have a negative vote value, I can see why you are against it.

Yea Forums is too retarded to use archives
Tyler Brown
We tried to make the newfags do it, but we've been drowned out. This is the future they chose.

Ian Powell
This. >we flood you with low IQ redditors/teenagers >board quality goes down >haha, I guess Yea Forums was a low-quality board all along! It's all so tiresome.
This is because /pol/ is the only board retarded enough to unironically link to clickbait. Yea Forums only has b8ers link to clickbait to make fake shill threads. Except for genuine shills for one angry incel.
Not using archive is the clearest sign of a newfag or off-boarder. There's no excuse when it is as easy as it is
Josiah Rodriguez
You get mentally ill retards like that on Yea Forums your post proves absolutely nothing. One guy has been coming into every single persona thread for years saying 'I love Fuuka' every time without fail, barry-kun posts in every KH thread etc, some people are just so mentally ill they will post the same shit every day.
Jacob Garcia
im sorry but could you try posting this in english? im not sure reddit fags like you understand how to fit in yet.
Michael Flores
How can you call him stupid when you're clearly retarded, many people have shilled here just like that, they use the same images, same phrasing, same tone in the thread. No wonder this board is fucked when actual retards like you are here is such numbers. This is why you're told to lurk moar faggot.
Isaac Gomez
fuck archives fuck gaymergate fuck kotakuinaction
Isaiah Lewis
I will take a million Barrys and Fuukafags before I give into Reddit upvoting faggotry. You retards are willingly giving away your humanity, and you don't even realize why.
Just stop coming to Yea Forums and using the internet. This site's been dead since 2013 and nothing you do will bring it back. Go live your life and be happy with the memories you have and move on with your lives.
Anthony Reyes
fuck you
Isaac Peterson
Have you been here less than a week? People deliberately false flag like that, that's obvious bait, you're supposed to think it's marketing.
Nathaniel Evans
Don't need to ban, just word filter the name of the sites that do this.
Jason Mitchell
It doesn't cost anything to. Hiro will refuse to address this, though.
and most of those posts were popular enough to reach the post limit, its almost like those people wanted to talk about vidya games. wow shocking
Leo Wright
Don't forget crying about /pol/ any time anything even slightly political comes up. It's like they forget it's not their reddit hugbox. Then add in the discord trannys and we have current year Yea Forums.
Mason Martin
Check the dates. It was before Terraria was even released.
Henry Anderson
There once was a report option for advertising. It's gone now. That should tell you all you need to know.
>Guy plays a game and really wants to talk about it >2 of his threads fail >3rd one works Problem? Are you really implying that viral marketers are paid to go around posting the N word?
They also tend to link the sources dip-shit because they have a modicum of sense and responsibility. I don't expect the average mentally underage mouthbreather on Yea Forums to understand what that is, but I figured I'd call you out on it anyway because that's the kind of thing I find fun. Makes me feel superior.
I also never said that it was against the law to screen shot or whatever. I said it was against the spirit of it. Google reading comprehension.
I'd also like to let you know that I share the true source whenever I see some pathetic faggot OP using one of those sites that mirror it just out of spite for your ilk if anything. Have a good one.

So you're telling me if I really want to live inside your head rent free all I have to do is make the same thread a few times and you'll instantly believe it's viral marketing?
redditfugees outnumber Yea Forums posters by a huge margin
Sebastian Hall
>Are you really implying that viral marketers are paid to go around posting the N word? How do you so fundamentally misunderstand how viral marketing works? Of course people are paid to go around pretending to be part of online communities to sell shit.

>implying the people being called /pol/ aren't also redditors talking politics on Yea Forums is the #1 sign of reddit

Holy shit you're naive, the wording of each of those posts makes it very obvious that it is ironic shitposting, possibly even coordinated through trannycord
Leo Gonzalez
You'd be the sad fag for doing it, but sure. waste your time making dozens of threads. Lower yourself to the smashfag level.

Noah Harris
If you think wasting your time on the internet arguing with morons is worth your time, then go ahead and continue doing so. You strike me as the type of person that would try to live life to relive the past which is like a dog chasing his tail. Cherish the memories you have and go make new ones. That's what keeps the world going round.
Leo Robinson

I was there, you probably weren't. It's hilarious you think the old viral marketing memes were real
Eli Hill
>muh sense and responsibility decent fucking human being! lmaooo you are way too obvious defending having your clickbait shit taken from you journoshill
Levi Evans
Considering his job is to astroturf this shithole I’d say yes.

If you were there, you'd know it was real. It wasn't everything Yea Forums was screaming "viral marketing" at, but it exists. And it still does. Don't be so naive.
Charles Jones
>Imagine dedicating your whole life to journalism no one is doing that, modern bloggers aren't journalists
Isaac Foster
>he seriously doesn't remember when this started on Yea Forums with Borderlands having fake shill threads made to cause people to have a negative opinion on the game regardless of the gameplay
Andrew Gomez
Agree to a certain extent but sometimes they are related. Our games are being censored thanks to leftists and in general political correctness so that is appropriate to discuss here. I know it makes reddit and retardEra ass blasted but it's true. We didn't want politics in our games but it has been forced in so expect it to be discussed.
Camden Rivera
>2009 >Discord do you mean IRC or are you too young

Twitter screencaps need to be a bannable offense too. If you want to talk about twitter go to twitter. Go anywhere else really, this place isn't for you.

It was the easiest board for reddit to invade hence why it became so shit so quick. They are particularly loud retards.

Ethan Cruz
At the end of the day you have to ask yourself if it's worth it to trick retards into doing what you want so you can pretend you're not around retards.
Levi Russell
Nowadays? Yes, but Yea Forums wasn't always this bad. No matter how many times you say Yea Forums was always shit doesn't make it true. It's gotten tremendously shittier and reddit is absolutely to blame, now go back.
Tyler Baker
Can we ban Dark souls threads. There is a dark souls thread Literally EVERY single day. Fucking shills I swear m8

Its gotten shittier every since /pol/ got more popular and started migrating to other boards. In fact all of Yea Forums got shitter. Go back to your containment board.

>M-muh P-pol Every.single.time. They really do live rent free in your head. Plus /pol/ got worse when all the /r/thedonald retards went there so reddit is still to blame. I wasn't aware a seething tranny was in the thread, should have known.

I mean that was what OP wanted in the first place, so if thats your opinion the thread was over before the first post.

Joshua Allen
You're chasing a boogeyman, you fucking lunatic.
Isaiah Powell
You only have yourselves to blame. People not lurking and Ironic Shitposting have fucking ruined this website.
One of the big issues is that anons here more so than any other board except maybe /pol/ will try to cash in on a hate trend and be massive contrarians in order to fit in. So after a while you get anons to do your work for you as they try desperately to fit in with the rest of Yea Forums but the issue here is because they are trying hard to fit in they mock anyone who doesn't until they submit or join in on the trend. Case in point: wojak
Jacob Bailey
>Case in point: wojak Case in point: you commies spread the wojak and pepe memes unto infinity to make it extremely uncool. Look at the South Park episode about Chinpokomon. It's the same principle, straight from the kike's mouth.
Adrian Wright
>Case in point: /pol/ the wojak and pepe memes unto infinity to make it extremely uncool. Fixed. Imagine being so out of touch with reality
Lucas Robinson
Pathetic. You simply push the boogeyman elsewhere. You are truly a despicable 'human being'.
Ryder Nguyen
Imagine going to college for 4+ year to get a journalism degree thinking you will work for some major media company and end up at eurogamer writing clickbait
Isaiah Bennett
yeah pretty much, I mean that's what I am saying, people came here to Yea Forums and /pol/ and saw wojak, said "this is what Yea Forums is, this is Yea Forums culture" and then believed that if they didn't post one on every other post they made they would be called out on it, and called out others on it, actually making what they thought true. A self fulfilling prophecy if you will.
Josiah Walker
Now imagine that your entire life is a lie, and debt is closing in all around you. But, you have a single answer: the white man. You can finally flex your pathetic muscle against your own people!
Camden Hernandez
Yeah, and that's all the commies' fault. Where do you stand?
Adam Flores
Don't worry, they can always learn to code! God I love making fun of these pathetic failures on Twitter, you can tell it really gets to them
