/tg/ stands for /touhou games/.

As long as you're posting something to do with touhou it's all good, but we do also like pornographic fiction and discussing the merits and drawbacks of D&D 3.5 and the 4th edition.

It's about sitting around a table with your friends and telling a story together.

>>12042234
>discussing the merits and drawbacks of D&D 3.5 and the 4th edition
Translation: We love edition wars.

/tg/ stands for /transgender/. It's the 4chan board dedicated to traps, MtF and crossdressing.

OP here.

I am still confused. I read a number of threads and didn't understand whether /tg/ is about old video games, roleplaying or new video games. Some threads appear as if the posters are pretending to be playing a video game that doesn't exist.

I think my cure will be to lurk more.

>>12042257

Don't mind the roleplaying threads, that's a small but vocal minority intent on shitting up our glorious porn-dump board.

>>12042257

lurkmore is always the answer.

every question. forever.

>>12042257
Well now, looks like I get to play my favourite game. Basically I get to make a bunch of random threads just to confuse the shit out of you.

>>12042281

Godspeed, man.

>>12042257

/tg/ is intended for table-top (though these games can be played online now-a-days) games. Typically this means Warhammer (40K and Fantasy), other War Games (where you get a bunch of mans and roll dice to shoot your opponent's mans dead) or roleplaying games like D&D.

/tg/ also likes to adopt older video games (and new ones relevants to their interest), typically these are RPGs and some of the RPGs (such as BG, NWN, etc.) actually use bastardized versions of D&D for mechanics.

Also sometimes people just roleplay randomly. Whether it's 40K, D&D or someone else entirely.

Sometimes, we just kinda post shit here. Pic related.

>>12042257
Good sir Anon, you have summed up the entirety of /tg/ in those few short sentences.

Keep this up, and you could find a place here.

>>12042257
It is essentially a little bit of everything. There is a reason why we keep saying that we don't need other boards anymore.

Faggot shit.

Ya'all just a bunch of queer fruitcake crackas keepin' me and my brothers down.

Faggots.

I'll just play DoW2 online, so I don't have to see your fucking whiteyass cracka neckbears asses.

>>12042335

Plus the crowd here tends to be a *little* bit saner than the rest of the board.

>>12042257

/tg/ is supposedly about tabletop games. Stuff with dice, cards, little soldiers, etc.

In practise, it's about whatever /tg/ feels like.

>>12042368
"Saner" is definitely the wrong word. Try "civilized".

>>12042381
Yeah, I have to agree with this. Considering the shit we come up with, we are just as batshit insane as the rest of 4chan.

>>12042257
We're a funny bunch.
Imagine those guys sitting at the back of the Cafe talking about goblins, or rolling crits and how you could make an immortal being in *insert system here* who's only real power is spontanious cheese creation and how you could totally abuse that and smother the BBEG with cheese while having a laugh.
Those guys are living /tg/
We're also those guys who play games hard and fast out the back of a moving truck at 90 MPH going down the highway because fuck, there's always time for gaming.
We're the guys who look at WoW and snort derisivly because we all know WoW isn't roleplay and it sucks.
We're those guys whos conversations start as 'So, how would you go about beating a Dragon using nothing but X, Y and Z' and end up talking pedantics about the Arc trajectory you would have to fire a half brick at to send it out the atmosphere. How the conversation changed and derailed though could only be found with forensic science.
We're the beardy bunch.

>>12042257
You mean Space Station 13 or Dwarf Fortress? Those are real games... I think.

/tg/ is the nerdcore of 4chan. We discuss roleplaying, tabletop games...

... and we can have better, more productive discussions about comics than /co/, about anime than /a/, about videogames than /v/ (but of course, you could do that anywhere, really), etc...

Since /tg/ has no mods it is /b/-lite. It is supposed to be about tabletop games.

>>12042404
Dwarf Fortress is not a game, it is a portal into the mind of an asspie.

Welcome to the best board on 4chan where troll topics turn into constructive discussions and you can actually find help concerning the topic of this board.

Imaginations always welcomed~

>>12042426
I thought it was a portal into the mind of someone really obsessed with lava-based death mechanisms.

>>12042426
asspies are not OCD asstards

>>12042426

YOU mumble mumble YOUR WHORE MOUTH mumble muble.

>>12042451
You don't know much about Aspergers do you bro?

>>12042381

Y'know, I knew it was the wrong word, but my internal thesaurus wasn't finding anything better to use. Civilized is much better!

"Higher Class of Poster" isn't quite right, but it's not wrong either. We discuss GOOD games, unlike /v/, and have VARIED porn, and writefaggotry, unlike /h/ and /d/.

/tg/ is probably one of the boards that has less shit:real content on 4chan.

>>I am new here and I don't think I understand what /tg/ is all about. Can someone please show me around?

>>12042579

It's more that we're simultaneously some of the nerdiest folks around here, and that most of our hobbies are inherently social. Therefore, we're the turbonerds that play nice with others. Sure, just like every board has its misanthropes, we have our That Guys, aspies, and tourneyfags. But comparative to, say, /v/, they're a smaller percentage of our overall population. We also have Books of Holy Writ (game books) with which we can beat down the most fucktarded.

This is probably true.

And this is definitely true, at least for our drawfags.

/tg/ is a nice board.

/tg/ stands for /touhou games/ /trans gender/ / traditional games/

/tg/ is also /d/ lite, /b/ lite, /v/ with a select games, /a/ without the faggotry also sometiems even /r/.

>>12042229
Looking over that. The rules for /v/ amused me greatly.

>>12043380
Did your trip change again flee?

/tg/ is capable of producing more civil, intellectual, and educational discussion of politics than either /new/ or /int/, the boards supposedly dedicated to it.

/tg/ is awesome.

>>12043399
I second that,

>>12043397

Had to, few weeks ago all the secure tripcodes had the letter arrangements changed for some reason.

>>12043399
No place on the Internet is a good place for civil, intellectual, and educational discussions of politics. It just doesn't happen.

>>12043412
thought it looked different.

/tg/ is where the asspie retards who think they're too good for /b/ have their /b/.

>>tg/ is capable of producing more civil, intellectual, and educational discussion of politics than either /new/ or /int/, the boards supposedly dedicated to it.

Actually no /tg/ is full of raging racist fags.

/tg/ showed me Franken Fran and I both HATE and LOVE /tg/ for that

it's a bit late for that, buddy

I think all you really need to know is that... some of us are really trying. We try to hide and ignore the troll threads, we try to get talk going in the good /tg/ related ones, and we try to not start pointless fights. Doesn't always work out, but there is an underlying effort from a fair portion of posters. We love going 'off topic' for a bit of fun, as long as it's not really hurting anyone, but spamming the same idea over and over will just piss people off. Just, try to make it the board you WANT it to be, and as long as you strive for something better, you'll be pleasantly surprised from time to time.

>>12043810

lol no, the point of the Confederacy was state's rights, specifically regarding succession. Slavery was just one of the wedges pushing the southern states away.

So the reason they seceded was to prove that they had the right to secede? Bullshit.

>>12043807
AHJAHAHAHAHHAHAhahah


Oh lordy. You are one dumb mother fucker. If the South was to rise again in as the confederacy it would have the worlds 4th largest Economy. All of Americas industry is now in the South. Texas alone could support the South.


But if there was another Revolution against Federal Tyranny it would be the L states

Southeastern Unitedstates and the Middle/biblebelt/cornworld whatever


Enjoy 80% of your agriculture and industrial strength not being yours

>>12043795
You heard it here folks. Fighting for your rights is stupid.

Frankly I wish the South would Rise again. I hate the north. Its really two different people, and let me assure you. I hate your people.

>>12043861
Another Pennsylvanian here, leave your mother's basement a little more often. Those hicks have been moving to suburban areas for a long time now. They aren't tolerated outside their trailer parks, so they disperse to avoid overpopulation.

Oh you crazy americans.

So....all of the state then?

I am, thank you very much. Cubans make the greatest restaurants and cuisine of any ethnicity.

>for witenl

>>12043868
Dude, you don't seceded over the lack of right to secede. While the Civil War was about state's rights, it was predominately about their "right" to have slaves. The Union might have been wrong in so far that political self-determination is one the the country's founding principles, but the South lost any claim to that ideal when they restricted some of their citizens' self-determination.

>>12043903
>New York

civil war is an oxymoron. The northern States forced south to have representation no different than a puppet theatre that makes an image of someone and expects the real-life people to adapt to the puppet just like a Voodoo Doll signifies evil controlling the ambition and will of it's Hex resemblance.

Do you consider rock/paper/scissors to be a war if not a competition?

it all started over how the southern counts were lawfully selling their property/cotton harvest for profit to all other countries that weren't affiliated to the the north States. Stincin' Lincoln ran his campaign and WON by his platform slogan that the United States confederation will raise export tax to 70% to force the southern States to sell to northern franchises.

There wouldn't be a war if the States just stopped exporting, make their own clothes, and the North get self-sufficient by growing cotton too. But nooooooooo. "Give us your cotton at what we will pay, says the north."

The southern States walked out of Congress of the United States of America to without another day to appear (sine die), and this was their right to secede. It's no different how England tries to rape Scotland.

Oh hah --slavery.

The south was "manumit" the slaves as any indentured servant would. Explain why A. Lincoln transferred title of ownership to the United States, known as "emancipate." A. Lincoln only acknowledged the slaves as a war prize, that's why he "emancipated" the slaves.

>>12043868
The Confederacy wasn't about states' rights, it was about preserving the economy through slavery. The Civil War was about states' rights.

The North is not just New England.

“Let the South go?! Where then shall we get our revenues!” – Abraham Lincoln

“If I thought the war was about slavery, I would have fought for the other side.” – General Ulysses S. Grant

“I worked night and day for twelve years to prevent the war, but I could not. The North was mad and blind, would not let us govern ourselves, and so the war came.” – Jefferson Davis

“All the South has ever desired was that the Union , as established by our forefathers, should be preserved, and that the government, as originally organized, should be administered in purity and truth.” – General Robert E. Lee

“I grieve for posterity, for American Principles and American liberty.” – General Robert E. Lee

“If I had foreseen the use those people designed to make of their victory, there would have been no surrender at Appomattox Courthouse; no sir, not by me. Had I foreseen these results of subjugation, I would have preferred to die at Appomattox with my brave men, my sword in my right hand.” – General Robert E. Lee

There was no proper representation of the South when Amendments 13 and 14 were supposedly "p-assed" into lawwww. Keep using that southern Voodoo puppet in the chairs of U.S. Kahhnnnngress doesn't make it legitimate.

Reconstruction Acts were all inherent fraud, no different how U.S. Army tries to change Iraq by claiming it's about Iraqi Freedom(tm). It's all thievery.

>>12043892
>Oh lordy. You are one dumb mother fucker. If the South was to rise again in as the confederacy it would have the worlds 4th largest Economy. All of Americas industry is now in the South. Texas alone could support the South.

Then why does it have to live off our federal tax dollars like one giant welfare mom with >9000 kids?

A Short History Lesson Just as the War for American Independence of 1776, the War for Southern Independence of 1861 was fought over

"taxation without representation." The North was constantly trying to raise taxes on Southerners through high tariffs on imported goods

in order to protect the inefficient big businesses in the North. These big businesses could not compete with manufactured goods from England and

France with whom the South traded cotton. The South did not have factories and had to import most finished products. The Industrial Revolution allowed

England and France to produce and ship across the Atlantic products that were cheaper than the products of Northern manufacturers. When Lincoln was

elected President, he and the U.S. Congress immediately passed the Morrill Tariff (the highest import tax in U.S. history), more than doubling the

import tax rate from 20% to 47%. This tax served to bankrupt many Southerners. Though the Southern states represented only about 30% of the U.S. population,

they paid 80% of the tariffs collected. Oppressive taxes, denial of the states' rights to govern their states, and an unrepresentative federal government

pushed the Southern states to legally withdraw from the Union. Since the Southerners had escaped the tax by withdrawing from the Union, the only way the

North could collect this oppressive tax was to invade the Confederate States and force them at gunpoint back into the Union. It was to collect this import

tax to satisfy his Northern industrialist supporters that Abraham Lincoln invaded our South. Slavery was not the issue. Lincoln's war cost the lives of

600,000 Americans. The truth about the Confederate Flag is that it has nothing to do with racism or hate. The Civil War was not fought over slavery or

racism. It was fought over taxation without representation. Sound familiar?

>>12043938
sheeple? thats cute

The Civil War was about FUCKING MANLY men with FUCKING MANLY songs doing FUCKING MANLY things, greybacks charging at fortified GATLING GUNS while shouting their rebel yells with nothing but rusty sabers in their hands, bluebellies STANDING THE LINE at a flimsy wooden picket fence while hillbillies who've been trained marksmen who've shot everything they've eaten since they were eight blow away everyone around them, Johnny Reb trudging through Pennsylvania barefoot because he's never owned a pair of shoes singing about hearth and home in Dixie, Billy Yank trudging across the Potomac to the same

place every other Yankee force has been slaughtered because he can't dishonor his home and family name singing an Irish tune he picked up from the

immigrant battalion about a mother who learns her son's legs have both been blown off.

That's what it's about. One of the manliest chapters in human history, and one of the most honorably fought wars ever.

Yes there were atrocities, but just compare it to, say, any war that has ever involved the British. Politicians, liars and lawyers and rhetoricians all

started it, but once it got started do you think any recruiter ever asked a volunteer his stance on slavery or economics? Fuck no, they talked about mettle,

honor, courage and duty, and sweet merciful fuck did those volunteers (and later on, draftees) show those qualities in abundance.
