V/
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
/v/ is most commonly known as the video game board on 4chan. It has counterparts in 7chan's /vg/, 420chan's /vg/, and 12chan's /v/, but as they are parts of the inferior chans nobody really cares about them. It is filled with 13yo virgins who don't know a good game when they see one.
/v/ is 4chan's second most populous board, second only to /b/, and is quite possibly one of the worst places on the internet. Due to its size, when overwhelming faggotry began to destroy /b/, many 'oldfag' /b/tards fled to /v/. Subsequently, /v/ became known as '/b/ with video games'. It also began to create lulz and quality meme content much faster than any other 4chan board at the time, even /b/, presumably due to this influx of users. Despite this, /v/ is well known for its constant and never ending trolling and flaming due to the complete ineptitude of its mods who only rarely ban users who post things inflammatory to the mods' personal interests, or just for the lulz. It is also well known that everybody on /v/ hates all games, game consoles, companies, software, fanboys, and themselves. This is different from /b/, though it may not appear to be on the surface. In reality, /v/ is made up of groups of people who present semi-rational arguments on a retarded topic, whereas /b/ simply swims in its own shit. /v/ also has an uneasy relationship with both /co/ and /a/, who attempt to find common ground and annoy the shit out of resident /v/irgins respectively.
To spot someone who is new to /v/, simply look out for threads where people are actually discussing the Vidya, rather than bickering about console wars or jacking off to Big Boss.
Recently, due to moot's chemotherapy on /b/, /v/ has become home for many retarded faggots fleeing a /b/ that has grown tired of their fail. Many people seem to think that /v/ needs a similar chemo, and hope it will come soon to save them from the endless number of tripfags and godawful roleplaying threads. Yet, no matter how shit-tastic /v/ becomes in the future, it will always live on in infamy as the board that launched the Rickroll on an unsuspecting internet, and is thus responsible for much of the real world's awareness of Anonymous. The beginning of the end started here, folks.
Denizens of /v/ are called /v/irgins, due to the unlikely possibility of them ever having sex with anything, and /v/ is often filled with these lonely individuals recounting their tragic love lives or lack thereof. Recently, however, /v/irgins have been known to be partial to do the Piccolo dick.
