All I really hear you doing is bitching, and moaning about culture being ruined. I thought you were the guy that society in general was pants-on-head-retarded, and that, as an individualist, one must do something about it.
Instead of moaning about it like SJW's are, do something: Look for the threads that you want to post to or view because, as far as I know, threads are organised in descending order from most recent post: They aren't the result of society spiting you, it's just that these people are "[l]ook[ing] for the threads that [they] want to post to or view".
It's not hard, the boards often overlap from my observations. (/u/ and /v/ over anime games, /a/ and /u/ because they are based on sister mediums, /pol/ with everything because they have to fact check for everyone.) If one doesn't have it, go to a relative, refresh the page, go to the next page; all of this vivian/quinnspiracy ♥♥♥♥ is locked to one thread per board. /pol/ isn't dominated by it, and /v/ are still talking about other video game related things in spite of the ♥♥♥♥ storm of what's been happening.
Sothe, stop being a no-fun elitist hypocrite bemoaning the ruination of your halcyon 4chin days. People've learned to cope with violating their childhoods with r34 porn, so can you at least move on like the rest of them?

Re: The Lounge
I may be whining a bit. These social issues threads take up the front page most of the time, but I am trying to post in video game related threads. /v/ has never been great; there's just a lot of negative traffic right now. It's not elitist to want on-point discussion. Also, as an individualist, one must do something about it for themselves. You can't dye the ocean purple with a mere bottle of dye. Just venting tho. Business will carry on as usual. Perhaps I should stop using DRL as my blog.

Re: The Lounge
I'm actually serious though. I know that there are this bunches of /letter/ things, I just have no idea of what they are or where they come from. I see people talking about them a lot (not only here), but I have never bothered about googling it because I either forget it or I'm not interested enough to do it. This seemed like a "good" opportunity to ask, saving me the boring part of google.
Well whatever.

Re: The Lounge
It has to do with the navigation of 4chan. Each board is abbreviated to a /letter/ on the header of the site to easily identify and switch between boards. /v/ is for video games. /pol/ is for politics. /a/ is for anime and manga. /u/ is for yuri.

Re: The Lounge
I don't think I've ever been to 4chan. Well, I thought it was quite different. So they actually have serious conversations about stuffs? Seems interesting, a bunch of random people talking about things. I thought it was a bunch of random guys that were into very twisted japanese porn and spent all their time sharing videos and making plans about hacking important places.

Re: The Lounge
It depends on the board. The traditional games board is probably one of the most well managed boards, as well as fashion board, mecha board, and artwork critique board. High traffic ones can vary in how serious it is. Legitimate and deep discussions can occur in the TV/movie, music, video games, and anime boards, but most of the time, its discussion of recent events or memes. There are many slow boards that are more used as utilities or situational places like animals, outdoors, toys, papercraft, and all that. I'd avoid /b/, however; and I'm maligned against the politics board. Those two places, along with a few subreddits like /r/Anonymous organize "da raids"
The adult boards are also well managed

Re: The Lounge
oh no the free content on the internet isn't exactly what I want
I know, I'll complain on some random other forum that /v/ is catering the the interests of the majority and not me, that should accomplish anything.
wait doesn't 4chan let you hide threads

You're missing the point. It's not about catering, it's about the board having a high volume of off topic content. And maybe you should read my posts to clear up any confusion.
