To stop the derailment of the VN thread, let's continue here.

>It does. When you reply you aggravate the derailment of the thread.
>It does.
Do tell. By ignoring, what is the resolution that you were hoping to reach, and how it is better than having the faggot leave?

Maybe ignoring won't make him leave, but it won't make him stay, whereas people like him thrive on replies, be it "Reported", "RAAAAAAGE", or a well-thought argument. All he wants is attention, and by replying you're giving him exactly that.

Not that guy, but the guy most likely will not leave.

Do you know why /jp/ gets a ton of shitty posters and trolls? It's because they know that they can get a reaction out of you.

"REPORTED FUCK OFF" is just troll fuel.

Boards like /tg/ are practically devoid of this because they don't reply to offtopic threads, or they reply without sounding like an angry buttmonkey.

I've heard that /jp/ has strict mods, so just report it and ignore it. If you reply, avoid replying again.

Sure.

Well, over the time I've noticed that people of that kind just come to "pick a fight". They just spill some anger, then of course expect some angry answers just to be able to let everyone know that they hate the board.

If you keep replying they'll keep going on because that's what they want. You won't make him leave that way. He'll only leave if you just ignore him and make it apparent that you don't give a shit about what he thinks. He'll eventually give up, and the thread won't get derailed. Best outcome.

Don't waste your time trying to explain the culture, rules or make him understand. They won't. It's like trying to explain a kid with down's syndrome that he's retarded and that he shouldn't act as one.

This. I really don't know who's newer, the shitposters or the one who reply angrily to them.

Woah, not having the post numbers at the right side had me thrown off guard for a bit.

Anyways

This is not something that you know for sure, though.
>All he wants is attention, and by replying you're giving him exactly that.
This is, again, under an assumption that he won't learn at all. I mean, I never took a psychology course or anything, and I don't often make contact with other people, so it might be just my naivety, but I believe that presenting some "well-thought argument" would do well to train many of these savages.

>Boards like /tg/ [...]
I was under the impression (as a non-regular of /tg/), that the board just has a very defined scope of acceptable posts, and has a  relatively strict mod.
>I've heard that /jp/ has strict mods, so just report it and ignore it. If you reply, avoid replying again.
Heh

This particular poster that caused the issue, though, seemed like he was looking for "a chill ass conversation", that is, discussion, of VNs.
>Don't waste your time trying to explain the culture, rules or make him understand. They won't.
I understand the point that your bunch is trying to make, but really, what makes you so sure that even people like the poster in question won't learn? Sure, he did say that he's not "conforming to [our] petty clubhouse rules", but had he really wanted to join in on the conversation, it is to my belief that he would have adopted a better form of posting.


Phew, I wish there were others who replied to the poster, to present their argument on here, since my personal opinion can only take this discussion so far.

Now, a(n) (un)scientific experiment comparing the rate of "jprules" adaption would be very interesting, but quite hard to perform due to the anonymous nature of our board.

Thanks for presenting your side of the arguments. I will give more thought before replying to (or consciously ignore) such posters in future.

PS: Sure is nice not having captcha.

Textboards are awesome bro, you should come over at /prog/ or /lounge/ some times.

what makes you so sure that even people like the poster in question won't learn?
I know what you mean, I thought the same things before. "There can't be people this retarded right? I mean, maybe if I explain to him politely he'll understand."

Hell I was wrong. I know because I've seen this shit many many MANY times. The people who barge into a stranger's house and tell everyone how things should be done are the kind of people who don't learn. That's it. They want everything to be done their way and nobody will change their mind.

In contrast, the people who are able to understand that there's a different culture, rules, and way of doing things in a stranger's house, won't complain about it in the first place, and they'll lurk and try to adapt by themselves in the first place because that's how they are. And if they make a mistake, they usually reply with "Sorry" or "I'll change that" instead of a "fuck you you're a bitter loser fuck the police xD".

I can't deny that there are people who will think things over if you explain them things, but they're the minority so it's not worth anyone's time anymore.

/prog/ or /lounge/
I've visited /prog/ a few times before, but not /lounge/. It seems  interesting.

[u]Do not go to /lounge/, please! We already have enough imageboarders!

But if you must, don't be an obnoxious idiot, please. If you're from /jp/, then you know how people that don't bother to lurk can be annoying.
