/jp/ - Otaku Culture

It's this elitist bullshit where it makes them better than weeaboos from /a/ that they don't

:3
XD

etc.

Pretty much guarantees they've got poor sense of self-worth if this is the kind of thing they're willing to fight over.

nyo~ron

Thanks for the answer.
And this is for you "elite" people.. :D:D:D:D

Being autistic, /jp/ lacks the ability to emote properly and becomes jelly of those who can.

>nao
This is worse than emotes.

>>7616294
/a/ doesn't like emotes either. Not even /cgl/ likes emotes and that place is full of retarded women. It's just a part of chan culture.

As far as I remember it was something like /jp/ being an imageboard, post reaction images instead of retarded emoticons.
And something like we don't care what your face looks like when you say something.

People use them in place of actual words. It's a hate of people who can't be bothered to type properly and think everything is an IM or text message.

>:-(

>Smilies aren't accepted in /jp/, please refrain from using them. We are all heartless bastards who don't want to see what kind of faces you make IRL while posting (This also applies to reaction images, if you want to post them so badly go to /a/ or /v/) Exceptions: ;_; (Life-like texture ;_;), 2ch smilies

I don't really care but I hate people who shit on emotes and then turn around and use a reaction image.

The same reason we don't like text speak. This isn't your mobile phone, using either just shows a lack of intelligence and ability to express yourself with words.

Some are acceptable e.g.:

;~;
^.^
-_-"
:3

It's all about context.

what about kaomoji

>>7616346
None of those are acceptable.

I tend to kill emote users in video games. If I can't kill them, I'll put them in dangerous situations.
I never get in trouble because I play as a female.

>>7616346
Fuck that. It's ;_; or nothing.

>>7616338
Do you think Michelangelo lacked intelligence just because he expressed himself through means other than words?

Of course he wasn't, you fucking retard. There are various forms of communication, don't blame other people just because you're too autistic to understand them.

Reported.
Bring your emotes shit back to >>>/a/.

>>7616356
That's right. ;_; is the only acceptable emote.

>>7616360
On one hand, you have a small point, but on the other, fuck you. Don't chalk up to artistry something that is a clear case of laziness.

;_; is the only emote I approve of. Hehe :D

I hate ;_; because people overuse it.

2ch smilies and ransmirk.jpg are okay.

>>7616360
If you want to communicate in pictures you drew, feel free to do so, this is an image board. If you want to use well made ascii art, that's fine too.

(^-^) is not art. It is a crude pictograph.

>>7616391
Is that a wizard?

The only real answer is that /jp/ is collectively retarded.

This board has absolutely nothing against Japanese emoticons, and even ;_; is not met with disdain. The hypocrisy is amusing.

キタ━━━(゜∀゜)━━━!!!!!

>>7616400
I thought it was a knife.

>>7616360
What kind of a retarded analogy is that? Emotes/smileys are still made up of text, like regular words are. Scupltures and paintings are not text. Their messages are conveyed differently. Smileys are meant to substitute text, art is not.

Besides, he's right. People who use emotes are usually 13 year old girls on AIM and Facebook. People that are too lazy or stupid to think of an appropriate word to fit the emotions they are trying to display.

It's a boat. Sideways. :)

in all seriousness.
all complete seriousness, as in: no more memes or witty comebacks.
all of that shit aside, completely serious right now.
if I had a gun with one bullet, and you were standing in front of me.
but next to you, was Hitler, alive again and ready to kill another 7 million or so Jews.
Honestly, I would shoot you. I really would. Why you're even on /b/ is something I really would like to know. I want to know how you managed to stumble into this place, and who told you about this secret place of the internet.

Honestly, you're the sole reason /b/ is full of fail nowadays. It would give me great pleasure to know that before I left, I could at least convince one idiot to leave this place for those with a positive IQ.

So please, in all seriousness, just leave this place and never return

>>7616394
Fuck off to /bun/, Jones

>>7616438
Agreed. But you have one bullet, how are you supposed to shoot them all?

I don't hate it ;-)
