How to tell if a thread is a shill thread

Please, fucking god, yes. Crossposters should be banned on sight.

At first I was going to call OP a retarded sperg, but has the right idea. That would reduce board spam and improve quality, in theory.

...

But wouldn't that work if the post was first made on halfchan?

...

it's half term, kiddies are out of school

I realize but it's a necessary evil

that's fine isn't it? why should we care about trashing 4chan when they regularly trash us

What a shame.

Whoa nigger, watch your mouth.

Go back to reddit, fuckboi

like clockwork

Why do you even come here?

oh I'm sorry I shoud l have asked before rape assuming you like that, what are your pronouns? mine are go/fuck/yourself

This.

Okay.

the real question is why hasn't this been done forever ago

There would need to be consequences for failure first. Given that a Christmas sticky on /sudo/ was only recently unstickied after someone posted a thread on Holla Forums telling Codemonkey to unsticky it, that seems unlikely. Consequences for failure is antithetical to leftism. Therefore, incompetent moderation will probably not be replaced.

Out-of-school posting is horseshit. Kids can just go to the site on their phones during class.

That's precisely what I'm saying

you should've known that mine are I/play/videogames
Regardless, at least you and I want to get rid of this problem.

Force of habit, a lack of anywhere better to go, the porn boards, and the games that the totally non-existent Holla Forums hivemind does approve of gets some decent discussion.

I hate the direction Holla Forums has gone the past couple of years, nothing but a katamari ball made up entirely in stock phrases and a lack of actual discussion, but it's still better than the gentrified 4chan Holla Forums, or any other site that's active and discusses gaming in general.

He didn't write MG1, 2 and 3 right?

You want to know why MGS1 is the most coherent Metal Gear title? It's because he had a team around him that anchored him and his bullshit to the ground. They were his filter to keep his good ideas in tact while downplaying all his autistic auteur tendencies.

how is 3 not coherent?

I would agree with you if one could quantify successful moderation individually without paying someone to be a manger

sure but I'd say that a number of them don't

I don't think the problem will ever be fully removed, currently ==-TRIGGER WARNING-==we can only just lessen it as much as possible

I never said MGS3 wasn't coherent, I just stated that MGS1 was the most coherent Metal Gear.

These are template threads OP.

They're already covered under rule 7, I CAN use fireden to compare other threads. However I'd rather not go back to 4chan since it sickens me to see what it has become.

Just to point something out about moderation on Holla Forums

Few months ago during the anti-pirate craze for some game i made a bait thread out of boredom saying shit like "ITT we laugh at poorfags who couldnt pirate " with some funny reaction image , literally 10 minutes after i made the thread it got deleted by mod. Meanwhile the obvious shill threads remained up and were even recreated to this day like Overwatch and similar garbage games from big companies.

Also the "mods cannot moderate when they arent online" excuse is a shitty one, just hire more volunteers to moderate shit instead of allowing shit like Overwatch threads to be freely recreated every god damn day.

Have you ever considered that there's anons who don't work for blizzard who like to play, or at least fap to porn of, Overwatch, and aren't just shills?

I know, I know, shut up jew/shill/Blizztard/whatever

sounds like we're doing a good job famalam

Sounds like a real lazy garbage thread, they should have banned you in addition to deleting it.

Turn off your modem.

No you stupid faggot, you're avoiding the simplest explanation, which is that he never had any intention of making sequels. MGS1 is "coherent" as in, it's the game with the fewest loose ends that Kojima felt the need to tie later on due to fan feedback. You're just regurgitating the same tired "this successful creator was surrounded by yesmen, so everything went to shit" story, despite you not knowing fuck all of what actually happened.

those anons would post within their threads and discuss random things not just create the thread and then leave it like shills do.

I have no objection on removing bait threads made out of boredom my issue is allowing OBVIOUS shill threads to remain untouched

Well, the current Overwatch threads OP has made 40 posts in it, out of 300, so by your own shitty logic it's not a shill thread.

Not good enough, it sounds.

It seems i triggered a shill ?

Overwatch haters are just people with shit taste right?

How long has Overwatch been out ? When i first started seeing Overwatch threads here they were Shill 101 threads, someone makes OP with typical "Lolz guys what do you think about this game XD" and then leaves, next few days same thread with same fucking image pops up

Also current Overwatch thread has 317 replies 106 UIDs but if you start reading posts you will notice most of them are extremely similar in both writting pattern and manner which implies its basicly same group of people making 3 posts then changing IP and writting same shit again pretending they are some new guy who just happened to find the thread. This behaviour was quite common on 4chans Holla Forums

the people who legitimately want to talk about a game aren't the problem though, it's shills who do more then just making a thread, that try their best to subvert the site on the whole inorder to push whatever it is they're trying to market to you and squish any discontent

...

But can Overwatch Threads melt steel beams?

This sums up my opinion regarding this issue.

Your butthurt and childish reply can only imply one thing, you are part of that Overwatch shilling circlejerk.

Here is a suggestion for you "genuine" Overwatch fans, why not make your own board dedicated to Overwatch so nobody could bother you there ?

I'm calling Overwatch a shit game and people who plays it have shit taste user.
Now, again, turn off your modem.

Actually by your logic Overwatch haters are shills since they're the group that most accurately matches up with your theory of shills making 3 posts and then changing IP to write the same shit again. Those threads are generally 5-10 people comprising half the posts in the thread out of ~100 IDs and all the rest are 1-3 post IDs saying shit like ">overcuck" and ">blizzshit" over and over again.

...

yeah and sadly decent posters have to get shit on inorder to safe guard against this kinda thing from happening

Oh no, someone made fun of my dumb conspiracy bullshit.

Better call him a shill.

Like. Fucking. Clockwork.

You are King Generic, sitting on a throne of broken records, ruling a kingdom of parrots and hacks. Long your reign be long and unoriginal.

dont backpedal now and it seems you are the one who needs reading comprehension, random fans of game wouldnt constantly recreate Overwatch thread here after getting so much hate from core Holla Forums userbase, they would get the hint and they would move to a place that shares their opinion of the game, hell there are so many pages and groups on Facebook for Overwatch game they could just discuss their shit taste there without negative backlash at all.

Do you even know what word shill means or are you just shitposting randomly now? What are Overwatch haters shilling exactly in your opinion ?

until something is done to combat the obvious shill threads situation wont change for the better for normal/decent posters.

Are you implying changing IDs is some impossible conspiracy theory, are you really that dumb? Hell looking at your first posts you think sage is a downvote and your "reddit spacing" (term i rarely use) are just hilarious signs that are you are an actual shill raging out at people who are asking for direct actions against shill threads.

I think Sage doesn't bump this shitty thread, is what I think.

It's good that you use it rarely, because it's fucking retarded.

I don't think nothing is being done though but more does need to happen and that sadly is the hot pockets will need to cross board they may even have to visit reddit and neogaf too inorder to do more

No you are not faggot, we still have L O L, 4am and waifu threads

those threads don't subvert the site in any way so they're not as harmful as you think they are

Why not both?
Also both are reasons for deletion.

Talk louder, nigger, I can't hear you over how fucking stupid you actually are. Have you fucking played MGSV? The guy's name is fucking plastered every goddamn where.

And yes, MGS1 is the most coherent because he had people that took liberties with the game in America and effectively made it better. There's a good reason why Snake isn't some babbling faggot in the only game he isn't, and that's because Jeremy Blaustein didn't go for an exact translation of Kojima's script. It was only after MGS1 that Kojima was hands on about everything. He's not shit because of yes men, he's shit because he's more shit than he is good.

Or am I wrong? You tell me, faggot, since you obviously know the true story about Kojima without any real context.

It's hilarious you think that proves anything. He wanted to treat the mission structure of MGSV as if it was a TV show, that's why the credits roll at the end and beginning of each "episode". So what? It has nothing to do with him being an egomaniac and only wanting to things his own way or whatever you're suggesting.
Yeah, news flash: credits don't mean shit.

Kojima has always followed advice from his team right up to MGSV. He even wanted to take out the iconic exclamation marks, only to to be convinced otherwise by his staff. (archive.is/HinOt) That alone blows your theory out of the water, and there's more stuff like this if you care enough to follow his interviews and actually pay attention to what he has to say.

That doesn't even make any fucking sense, and the main premise of your argument was that he's "hands on about everything", which I disproved.

>especially the 'gameplay 'which was massively improved in the second game
It's like you're not even trying.
