It's largely about MY threads, specifically, A). because deleting "a user's topics" is simply "depart from me; I don't know you" sorts of behavior; B). (and because) they're both on-topic and some of the most important in the industry, science being fundamental to public availability of documentation on quality.
4chan administration, it is *not* your responsibility "taking up for" disgustingly abusing privileges. (Neither are similar comments, ITT, welcomed / valid "unless the situations are 'heard out'".)
>[Any relevant suggestions, critiques, etc., of the subforum's cultural aspects].
---- /qa/ memo: It's obviously plausible me reposting these; and it's "obviously relevant". PS: "Complaining about.." is *not* "against the rules".
Can we talk about /vp/'s Pokemon Anime Discussion threads? Over the past 2 years, a couple of users have been ruining the threads and making them practically unusable.
>Exhibit A: Conspiracyposter >A user who migrated here within the past few years. This poster is mass-reporting non-rule-breaking posts and peddling conspiracies .
>Simply posting SFW screenshots of female characters he dislikes, such as Serena, Giselle, or Largo, will lead him to call the poster a "pedo" and report the post even if there's no rule-breaking content or sexual comments about the characters.
>He dislikes posters posting female characters because he believes anyone who posts them or finds the characters attractive are a group coordinating an effort to disrupt the thread because they're part of a cabal that holds Adamant, a fansubber in the community, to high regard, and he and these users coordinate attacks on the /vp/ threads via /a/'s Aikatsu threads (Aikatsu, a female-centric anime, once aired in the timeslot before Pokemon and users would occasionally discuss it while waiting for Pokemon to air live, which infuriated conspiracyposter).
>I've since learned that this user came on /qa/ to spin this conspiracy about Adamant, Aikatsu, and female characters with a number of very long posts but IDK if the took it seriously.
>IDK what the ban process looks like for mods, but I think there's a trigger-happy mod who simply approves a lot of reports by this user on /vp/ without looking at the threads because at this point people are getting banned for posting screenshots of relevant characters.
>I've been banned once for this reason for posting one image of a character he disliked for "spamming." I was unbanned after talking to a mod and showing him the thread + posts. Mod said he'd talk w/ the others about it.
>User bypasses bans frequently because I've seen lots of his posts get completely nuked but his trademark aggressive posting style presents itself again within minutes
First, I'd like to begin by issuing a request to all board members. Please do not post pictures of girls as attention grabbing images for a thread. Lots of us on this board get very uncomfortable when we see a picture of a girl, and sometimes we get very sad. So please, be empathetic and consider this...
