Truly the worse of what /vn/ has to offer
Xavier Howard
What did you expect from an EOP?
Jace Gray
That's high level memery, you pleb.
Josiah Perez

Chase Bennett
Amen
Justin Mitchell
Anyone finger their asshole when they fap? I was thinking of trying it.
Kayden Peterson
Doesn't really work for me, tried it out of curiosity but got nothing from it. Why not try?
Carter Sanders
That's only any good if you can reach your prostate and massage it properly. Can be difficult to do with your finger alone, though.
Christopher Gomez
>fingering feels nice >escalates to pegging >eventually, catch the gay >now a homo who can only get aroused from having a dude fuck you in the ass No thanks, I'll pass
Adrian Hall
Maybe that's the issue for me, too short fingers. Felt utterly pointless.
It's just a survey like the one Mangagamer did. I'm too lazy to fill it out though.
Christian Lee
god damn you are paranoid
Ethan Jenkins
I tried linking just the survey but Veeky Forums bans surveymonkey I guess
Luis Butler
>yahoo
Lincoln Sanchez
What category does /vn/ fit into?
Luke Russell

Gavin Miller
General interest.
Luke Foster
General interest I believe?
Ryder Foster
1) /jp/ and /vn/ 2) vndb 3) Micchi's blog 4) Twitter
Zachary Torres
Poorly designed survey, making me pick a ranking for everything when I block all ads and literally never listen to radio/podcasts. Also who gives a shit about ranking excitement for any of the 6 or so other games they licensed except grisaia, hoshimeme, leyline, and maitetsu?
Jordan White
Yeah, they ask you if you have ever used their customer support, then in one of the last questions make you rate it even if you haven't used it.
Landon Lewis
and the part about VNs on consoles
David Howard
Right, does it ask you that one even if you say you don't have any consoles? I own two, but it was still annoying having to rank them since who the fuck plays VNs on console.
Are there actually podcasts about VNs? Outside of generalist garbage saying "oh, and there's a new steins;gate coming up for you animay fans, but watch out, it's another of those weird porn game-book thingies"

What's this you've said to me, my good friend? Ill have you know I graduated top of my class in conflict resolution, and Ive been involved in numerous friendly discussions, and I have over 300 confirmed friends. I am trained in polite discussions and I'm the top mediator in the entire neighborhood. You are worth more to me than just another target. I hope we will come to have a friendship never before seen on this Earth. Don't you think you might be hurting someone's feelings saying that over the internet? Think about it, my friend. As we speak I am contacting my good friends across the USA and your P.O. box is being traced right now so you better prepare for the greeting cards, friend. The greeting cards that help you with your hate. You should look forward to it, friend. I can be anywhere, anytime for you, and I can calm you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my chess set. Not only am I extensively trained in conflict resolution, but I have access to the entire group of my friends and I will use them to their full extent to start our new friendship. If only you could have known what kindness and love your little comment was about to bring you, maybe you would have reached out sooner. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now we get to start a new friendship, you unique person. I will give you gifts and you might have a hard time keeping up. You're finally living, friend.

Reddit has one but it's focused on learning Japanese and reading untranslated VNs as a gaijin learner so I'm not fond of it. Just talk about the VNs! Don't bring language learning into it! God, I dream of a world where VN discussion isn't hounded by language learners.
Landon Gutierrez
I'm not bothered by language discussions, but >reddit Thanks for the suggestion but no thanks.
Jackson Smith
No
Alexander Taylor
No need to be pretentious, fags over there are just like fags over here.
/vn/ is for funposting while Reddit is for actual discussion newfriend.
Thomas Long
>Reddit is for actual discussion
Xavier Green
>actual discussion More like post after post of "Yeah I just finished X my xth untranslated VN, the language was kinda hard/easy to understand, now let me talk more about the Japanese language and how I'm studying it, not about the VN"
Easton Martinez
This, everyone in this thread actually has Reddit accounts and posts in both places.
Levi Sanchez
Excellent funposts. This is exactly what I was talking about.
David Carter
I'm not being pretentious, just prejudiced. I see reddit as a consensual hugbox with little room for actual debate or funposting, so it's not exactly a selling point for me. Though if it's not how it is, I can give it a shot.
>reddit is srs bsnss >treating others as newfags
Luis Scott
Those were my original instructions, but that's chrome specific.
Jackson Morales
>I see reddit as a consensual hugbox with little room for actual debate or funposting In terms of /r/visualnovel, the mods certainly enforce a degree of decorum (I was warned for using the term "EOP"). Honestly, as long as you've actually having a discussion and not just flamebaiting / trolling you won't have a problem but I can definitely see someone from your perspective viewing it as a hugbox that censors opinions.
In summary: Debate is fine and happens a lot, but flamebaiting and trolling isn't allowed.
However, this is kind of irrelevant, since the podcast is just 3-4 redditors talking about the subject, so how discussion occurs on Reddit itself doesn't have much to do with it. What really matters is how much you like the individuals speaking. I was not fond of them because they talked too much about learning Japanese.
Depends on the subreddit and the mods, the place is too big to say it is or isn't a hugbox, you'll find all sorts of communities. There's a lot more variety than here and I'm sure some places are similar to this one.
Chase Watson
Thx hun
James Brown
Literally /r/eddit.
Jose James
VN discussion on Veeky Forums is dying. In the near future it will die out completely and everyone will move to Reddit.
Carson Richardson
>VN discussion on Veeky Forums is dying I heard this same line 3 years ago.
Ayden Robinson
And? Did it happen?
Zachary Davis
No. This place is more or less the same as I left it 3 years ago. The memes are just different.
And Ti9 finally fucked off.
Blake Rivera
Fuck you, Ti9 was the best of us and this place never recovered after his death. We wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for him.
