What were the recent /sp/ stickies about? I can accept that the music in /b/ is nothing unordinary, but for /sp/ I thought it was a bit rich considering that I assume moderators want to discourage shitposting.
You must be fairly new to /sp/, that kind of thing is fairly normal there. The America vs Yurop rivalry there is strong, especially with the whole football vs football deal.
/sp/ is GOAT.Deal with it.
At least you didn't have to listen to Tay Zonday or whatever his name is for a week on /fit/.That being said, jokes by moderators like that are nice. They let you know that mods actually exist and are paying attention.Now Call Me Maybe is stuck in my head, thanks.
>>4804this/threadOP you must lurk at least 1 year before posting
>>4853Yeah, I have been browsing /fit/ for the longest of any boards, I know the pain. I then get laughed at by /g/ users for not knowing how to turn it off, and being called a newfag.
/sp/ is known for having a few off-topic threads during the seasons of sport. It has come to be known as /sp/ culture and is generally accepted as normal in /sp/.However during major sporting events such as Superbowls, World Cups and the Olympics, there is an influx of posters from other boards. especially /b/, who are known for their immature behaviour. During these Olympics there have been lots and lots of on-topic threads, but generally as the Olympics progressed these newcomers got a little bored. Instead of going back to their respective usual boards they stayed around a little bit and there was a huge surge in "shitposting". These surges in "shitposting" and off-topic discussion have made /sp/ come to be known as /b/3.0 in a similar fashion to /v/ becoming known as /b/2.0.Recently a group researching Mars and life outside of Earth, landed a Rover on Mars called Curiosity. As, a previous poster has stated, The rivalry between USA and Europe is extremely fierce, with lots of threads being posted on /sp/ about this rivalry with countries trying to get one up over other countries by stating accomplishments that their respective countries have achieved./Sp/'s mod decided it would be a great idea to post two stickies on /sp/ about USA landing on Mars, although it has been done before, and about Britain not having landed anything on mars succesfully, claiming that Britain were somehow inferior because of this feat. The mod also had "Space Jam" playing on the board throughout./sp/-Sports had two off-topic threads stickied that had absolutley nothing to do with Sports. Thus confirming that mods don't want to discourage shitposting, but in fact, they think its a good thing, which is absolutely unacceptable.
>>5027I don't think anything will be done because I think it was moot himself.
>>5115Yeah, I was going to mention something about Moot rumoured to be behind them, but I didn't have enough room in my post so just missed it out.
>>5027The stickies kept other threads shitposter free for days. And other shitpost threads died quickly. Having two permanent shitpost threads with 4000 responses on the front page is better than having a constant stream of shitposting seeping into other threads.
The only thing /sp/ needs are spoiler tags/images.That's it.
