What is /b/ and /tg/ ?

No opinion of 4chan, just have heard (unflatering) things about it and never visited.
/b/ is the aptly named "random" board of 4chan.
It is the single most random place on the internets, and there are a great number of memes that are spawned (and killed) there.
It is also the most public of the many boards of 4chan since there have been IRL trolls spawned from there.

Can't recall what /tg/ is.

My fav board is the wallpaper board (/w/ ?) where many a delicious wallpaper are born by people with much more free time (and artistic talent) than I, create win-papers.

/b/ is the random board of 4chan, and what most people assume the rest of the site is like. Apart from the rule of "No child pornography", there's no rules on that section.

/tg/ is the traditional games section of the site, where you can discuss role-playing games, certain video games like Dwarf Fortress and roguelikes, board games, and so on. Pretty cool place if you're into that sort of thing, it's where I spend most of my time. The posters there are usually called either fa/tg/uys or ca/tg/irls. Occasionally Eloquen/tg/entlemen.

My favourite board is definitely /a/.
I've gotten so many awesome anime suggestions from there.
And where to find them too!

There is the occasional troll (on ANY board of 4chan, there is at least 5% of the people there, trolling) that links something irrelevant, but its still a very good place to get anime suggestions.

All in all, I like 4chan because it is pretty much:
Google + random + lols

There have been accounts of Child Pornography on there soiling it's reputation.
In recent years, the janitors and mods of 4chan have been heavily clamping down on that. You're more likely to see goatse or 2girls1cup than you are child porn.
That stuff doesn't wash off. Once you have that reputation mark, it's on you forever, even if you have been cleared.

Calumon: Chocolate doesn't wash out. It was on Jack's old clothes! ^^

Most people are quick to jump to conclusions. Yes, 4chan has its fair share of flaws, but what site doesn't? Heck, I've been frequenting 4chan for almost 3 years now.

In general, I'd say 4chan is the single best site to go to if you want to be desensitized and/or want to argue against people that cannot be argued against.
