>>22486446He probably means that things were less circlejerking than what they're right now. But we would be cherrypicking too, we still had shit like Bui, Sparky, the RP fags before TR RP, gary bombing used to bomb almost every thread if one autist didn't like it, pokeparents ran to the ground, r u simgle master and other stuff.
And still, I'd say that threads were better during late /tr/ / early /vp/ era if you ignored Pokemon General's constant dick sucking. There were daily SFW and ecchi Pokegirl dumps, Wi-Fi general was separated into different threads for Battle, Breeding and Trading (which is way better than the current circlejerk Wi-Fi general is where something as simple as getting someone to trade you can be as rare as getting a shiny unless you're part of their fuckbuddy regulars), there were a lot of giveaways, cute threads and more.
