What the fuck is the point of this board? This is my first time here, and it looks like you guys just pick up /a/, /e/, and /v/'s leftovers.

>> No.2076306

/jp/ is /a/+/v/

>> No.2076307

No point.

>> No.2076310

>pick up /a/, /e/, and /v/'s leftovers.

This. /jp/ is overflow parking for the other boards.

>> No.2076315

Visual novels, Touhou, lolis and general Japanese stuff.

Yet somehow we're better than /a/ and /v/ combined, fascinating.

>> No.2076322

And we're randomly assaulted by /b/, though /x/ gets that more than we usually do.

>>2076310
/jp/ accepts the awesome parts of other boards.

>> No.2076323

>>2076301
you're correct. that was the primary reason /jp/ was created, to be /a/'s garbage dump, but not limited only to that.

>> No.2076324

Lurk a bit more before you post then you'll have your answer, newfriend!

Here is the official reason. If you want to know more, lurk moar, and check the archive.

/jp is a meta-board.

Meta-threads are our blood.

>> No.2076352

you know, many people claim to visit our board for the first time. what's the deal with that? i highly doubt other boards have the same frequency of new pals making threads like these (of course, part of that has to be blamed on the ambiguous board name).

>> No.2076356

/jp/ should ONLY be about General Japan. Not this bullshit toho garbage. You fags need to go back to /cm/ or something.

They think "/jp/ - Japan/General" and think this is a board to post/ask about Japan. It's not their fault that we "lack direction".

>> No.2076442

>>2076399
Newfags shouldn't be making threads until they lurk to begin with.

>> No.2076460

>>2076399
I've been thinking about this, and this board is supposed to be Japan/General. The /jp/ sticky does make that point clear. In the beginning there was a good balance of everything and few people were fighting amongst each other. Even though I came here in the beginning from /a/ for the fringe-/a/ stuff, I think it's the 2D side's fault /jp/ declined in quality. After a while people tried to force "normalfaggotry" out of /jp/, which led to the bickering and decline of our board.

>> No.2076478

>>2076442

No one knows what lurking means anymore. I don't bother.

I don't mind seeing threads asking about japan threads or language, but so much meta discussion is bothersome.

>> No.2076496

Funny.

That's exactly the same question I asked the
first time I arrived in /jp/.

>> No.2076498

>>2076442
This is true of every board but /b/. There really is no excuse. Thus, all apparent mistakes of this kind are trolls. This is a meta troll.

Child idol threads were banned and only faggots remained to sustain the 3D side.

Blame faggots like ZUN!bar for trolling legitimate Japan/General topics out of NEET rage.

So... since anime and manga are both, by definition, Japanese, isn't this board basically just /a/ with a bit of /c/, /m/, /s/, /u/, /v/, /w/, /cm/, /y/, /cgl/, /ck/, /fa/, /mu/, /toy/, /trv/, and /tv/ mixed in?

>> No.2076533

>>2076460

The 'normalfags' didn't leave because of that. They left because they have no one to discuss their shit with here. What makes a board are the users, not the rules.

>> No.2076541

>>2076514
Well, there's also the many learning Japanese threads. I know there were a ton when the board started out, but some time later suddenly "everyone" turned against them and they were no longer welcome. I don't really care since I didn't participate in them, but who is to blame for that.

>> No.2076592

>>2076541

How many times can you stand answering the same fucking questions? It's always HAY GUYS HOW DO I LEARNED JAPANESE IS MY HIRAGANA GOOD WHAT BOOKS SHOULD I GET (see also: the HAY GUYS I JUST LEARNED WHAT A VN IS SUGGEST ME MORE crowd)

Maybe if we had a sticky to answer those faqs things would be less trollan around here.

Besides the fact that we have a perfectly good textboard for language threads, shit got old fast, we hate repeating the same advice over and over again. HEISIG GENKI TAEKIM SRS
