Do you still remember how you found 4chan?Share the story if you feel like it.I personally came across threads on Newgrounds forums mentioning 4chan. However, my black friend Tyrone is the one who showed me 4chan during late 2004 along with showing me his ballooning girl fetish on DeviantArt. I didn't come here everyday back then but I did hang out here on /b/, /a/, and /f/. I stayed pretty active with anime threads and checking out flash content up until around 2007 which is when I finally started getting on /b/ and expanding to other boards including visiting 4chan A LOT more frequently. You are here forever is the truest quote this place has come up with. I literally can't leave longer than maybe a few weeks at most.Honestly, just making a thread to "shoot the shit" with some anons.
> Sages around Raptor Jesus the topic for general forum submissions.I recently learned about the sneeze fart cunundrum.>When you sneeze; you also have to pop a light squat.. Who's next ?
>>952411892How about the image of Raptor Jesus with Cockmongler face, do you remember that? Or the 2ch animations with the SAGE character?
This place has become hell on earth but honestly I miss when Moot was fighting off random DDOS’s and Caturday was a thing and /pol/ WASNT a thingI also miss when sluts weren’t covered in shitty tats too but what can you do.Niggas can’t triforce, etc.
This place took down Scientology once. RON PAUL /b/. The porn was way better too. It’s all gone to hell, the internet is conquered.
>>952412009> Niggas Can't Triforce...> Bounce Didn't Bounce.> Shit Check'em.
>>952411786hmm. first found 4chan in 2005-ish maybe? but i didn't use it for more than a day. sporadically used it up to 2021, then the gooning stuff got a bit out of control and i used it a few times a week. left in 2024ish i think. then december 2025 i used it and there was very little traffic so i was able to extract identity info much more easily and just followed that thread. not sure what brought me to it in december, was just kinda looking for humans i guess
>>952412184Well you came to the right thread; OP is still a faggot, You seem like a simp, and i'm just an overall good looking handsome man.
>>952412009It's been a cesspool of shit. I also miss those times as well. After things got bad during 2016 and afterwards. However, the decline really started to take more shape I'd say around 2011/2012.I mostly stayed hanging out around /g/, /vr/, and a few other boards here and there. Also was hanging out a bit on /qa/ and /trash/.I miss that everyday. I'll never understand why people want to brand themselves and have identifiers all over their body to perfectly get themselves arrested should they try to commit a crime. RETARDS!>>952412009>>952412135>>952412243▲▲▲No, newfaggotry here.
>>952411892huh, i recently analyzed the poincaré conjecture and i think it's true (i tend to assume false)
>>952412132The internet has been dead since everyone and their grandmas started getting online with their gay smurtfones.
quake in-game chat I think ▲▲ ▲
>>952412184Where did you hang out online throughout the rest of the 2000s and 2010s?
>>952412266Occupy Wall Street was the first salvo in the crumbling of the Internet
>>952412266NEWFAG!
>>952412341You were still playing Quake in 2003-2004? Or when the fuck was this?
>>9524123542000-2003 not on internet2003-2014 irc/cydia/objc2014-2025 objc/js/rust/vim/discord
>>952412356My buddy "Teh" Cockadoodle Doo Rooster Micfri was all out in the grind for the protests during that time. Hehe, I'm doin' your mom! Reminds me of how much of a tool Ray William Johnson is for stealing Micfri's shit.
>>952412243okie
>>952412266Also a cestpool of shit on my side; seen everything a man could probably see. Met every type of man online and offline, seen damn near all of it from ylyl all the way up to /g/'s humbling threads. Always was a /b/ro though at heart.Met more friends than I can count; had only a handful of enemies. Gotta think twice when looking at me now. Backlore is dark; still. Keep your chin up. Remember to laugh sometimes.
>>952411786>Do you still remember how you found 4chan?No. I came here even before I knew English. Makes no fucking sense
>>952411786I google searched an uncensored place where you could speak freely about politics and such
>>952412442I still get on IRC but not as often as I'd like. But I was fairly active on Freenode and started getting into Rizon around the time I started getting on 4chan.
>>952412480https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owK5tHjL0aE&list=RDowK5tHjL0aE&start_radio=1Should start an AMA thread, faggot.
>>952412509yea before 2014 i was still in school (before university)
>>952412472/b/ros 4 life.
>>952412407I played until 2007 or so, gradually losing interest. everyone else either moved on or was rage quitting all the time, making online gaming pointless. miss those times.
>>952412540>2014 in schoolIt's still crazy to me how much time has passed. I had already been out of school for 8 years in 2014.
>>952412472gigagigabased>>952412561anyone should always be honored to be your /b/ro
>>952412598Bro I know what you mean; I'm just over here laughing my ass off in total silence. Too much laughable memories. Thank you /B/ros. I'll be back in a bit.
>>952412598yes
>>952412581Yeah, I played a bit of Quake and Quake II online in the late 90s but I don't think I remember playing it anymore by around 2001. I started getting obsessed with fucking RuneScape and even more when I got around to playing the beta as well as full release for RuneScape 2. I fucked around a lot with stuff like Quake, Doom, and Duke Nukem 3D though for a period as a kid.
>>952412641I have a lot of laughable memories as well. Randomly not quite as old but me and a friend helped force Good Guy Greg into a meme and then I'm happy that I got to parttake in calls to Shirley Phelps' crazy stupid retarded ass and tell that bitch off during the Westboro Baptist Church raid. Fred was already dead by this time.
Fuck you Todd. Love you like a brother.
>>952412664same but went the lineage 2 route. had so much fun in that MMORPG.
>>952412744We Todd did?
Well.. Doesn't look like we're apart of the main thread anymore.> If you send someone a photo of mushrooms through text, therefore sending someone mushrooms... Is this legal or illegal you ask ?
Fuck you too. And likewise.
>>952412848try not to reason so far into delusions. suffering is inevitable, trying to minify suffering by shaping behavior _can_ be beneficial, but breaks down in edge/corner cases
>>952412827I never played that but I randomly remembered being into GunZ: The Duel for a little while. Anyone else here ever play it?
Wrong upload, Enjoy anon. Sorry for the half cut talk.>>952412905Loved that game. Fgunz.net is still up I believe ?In Ijji I was bored as hell.
>>952411786I was an underage b& in high school in 2008. I went to a vocational school. A classmate was sprewing memes on the daily and I had no clue what he was talking about because internet speak doesn't translate well into real life. Nobody else was talking about memes IRL. Eventually I looked up some memes he was talking about. He may have even broken Rules 1 and 2. (I also found out about The Rules of the Internet before I had seen Fight Club.) I associated /b/ with /b/ored and so when I didn't have anything to do, I would come here. I would mainly go into roll threads and game threads. Absolutely would call you all niggers and faggots just because I could. I was here for the copy/paste triforce and for me Puddi was the first stupid forced meme.I eventually would read the greentext incest threads on /b/ because it was just fasinating stuff, even if "The stories and information posted here are artistic works of fiction and falsehood..." etc. Those niggers would post full length novels in there.These days I like /b/ for the random discussions and how you can just be unfiltered honest. It's actually refreshing.Eventually, I started going onto other boards. Mainly for porn. But these days I mainly go to /vp/ when I'm bored and I actually try to help out on /adv/. I also used to regular /h/ in the Fap Hero thread and actually sauce some info for people and host older files when they couldn't find them. I go there less now. I had a brief stint when AI chatbots were getting big by going to /g/ for info, and then realized that they're just a bunch of retards and threads were so fast that only a couple posts per thread were useful. I also sometimes go to /sp/ to find a stream of a major sporting event. Hung out there during the Olympics this year.I used to come here daily, but sometimes I can go a few months. Not having to sign in and the ability to be anonymous is huge. Even though I can make an alt account anywhere. Right now I am about 2-3 times a week.
Heard about the trap thread on another site
>>952412980I have no idea if it's still up or not. I haven't messed around with the game in probably like 18 years or so.
>>952412905Did somebody just mention Gunz?Why are we talking about Gunz. Also I found the place back in 04 or something through a forum.
>>952412986haven't read rules of the internet>I associated /b/ with /b/ored and so when I didn't have anything to do, I would come here. I would mainly go into roll threads and game threads. Absolutely would call you all niggers and faggots just because I couldyea, me-ish type shitonly use b and biz, though haven't used biz in years
>>952412986Yeah, nobody understood shit that I was saying when referrencing "memes", internet culture, and all sorts of dumb shit IRL during the 2000s and even the early parts of the 2010s before I became a damn ghost.>Who broke rules 1 & 2 on Rick Astley?>NEWFAGGG!That video lives in my head.>PuddiI was here for that day. CRAZY how many years it's been now.>These days I like /b/ for the random discussions and how you can just be unfiltered honest. It's actually refreshing.Probably the real reason I still come to this shit hole even though I'm pushing 40 and can't relate as well with younger generations who get on here now. I don't fit in or relate with my peers either. Fucking shit for brain normie retards who make me want to scream just trying to have a conversation with.Most convos with people my age go like this>Me: What's up?>Them: nm, just workin>Me: Umm, that sounds boring as shit. Don't you do anything else?>Them: not reallyYou get the idea. Trying to talk to people my own age is like bashing my skull against a cinderblock with my dick being biten by 100 ticks. It's not for me unless they actually can keep up with me in a conversation and I don't totally find them repulsive.>Fap HeroI remember those threads. I never really got into it. I watched a few of the videos but it was more of a distraction and wasn't my style. Interesting idea and probably fun for those who were into it. But it just wasn't for me.>2-3 times a weekI'm here typically 5-6 times a week. Some days I'm here longer than others.
>>952413121What website?
>>952413283YES, I did!The anon I was replying to was talking about gaming online with me. It was something that I randomly played for a while when it first came out.
>>952413292Isn't /biz/ just nothing but shit posting and LARPing anons who think they're actually making money?
>>952413429>Isn't /biz/ just nothing but shit posting and LARPing anonsPretty fucking much.
>>952413403I remember teaching friends how to k-style. That was the funnest thing at the time next to all the mmorpgs we had access to.The mmorpgs are what I really miss from that era.
>>952412274 Mr. Grigory Perelman agrees with you, along with his friend the geometrization conjecture
>>952411786I'm a supernewfag (decided to check it out for the first time a few months ago, got hooked)
>>952413448Still surprised we haven't met yet.
>>952413429see also nature of software engineering. intersects with math to form consensus devices. get voting and money systems out of it but it's like max difficulty programming and math combined (crossdomain research). so once it is abstracted (libraries built) many other humans can build with it. but all sorts of theoretical problems i'm sure you'll see. can give more annoying info if you want
>>952413594those are words! expressing programs as gauge matrices i think they're called. vectors of finite field elements
Learned something somewhere here with Mr Grigory Perelman. > definitely not a hotdog..
>>952413523Ooooh yeah, I remember players being OBSESSED with perfecting and mastering k-style with certain glitches going on in earlier builds.>>952413624You're extremely late to the party, actually the party has been closed for 11 years now and we're all in a nursing home waiting to fucking die now.>>952413641Maybe we have and we just don't know it. I'd say the likelyhood of me replying with some of the anons in this thread is probably pretty damn high given my time and frequency posting on here. I have no fucking life.
>>952413733oh yea i bet, checkd, it forms really interested research on the shape of programs in super high dimension spaces (think 1000000^2 dimensions). analyzing the topology is pretty interesting. looks like picrel. a program is 3 matrices, A, B, C related with a witness vector w such that (A*w)*(B*w)=C*w then just compile programs to quadratic relations
>>952413821I was born too late, unfortunately. About half a generation too late
the biz people are really good at disseminating information. they're just now bogged down maintaining the systems they operate and lack bandwidth to properly analyze/oversee emerging research, which is totally fine. can use the same tactics, run conferences/gatherings for researching the consensus and money devices with scalar lattice cryptography and interactive oracle arguments with lazy recursive hiding
>>952413961May be the cause of ww3 ?
>>952414011>That's where I stoppedyea that's fair, i'm specifically referring to the ethereum foundation people, not biz
>>952413946The only source of pride that I hold regarding being born when I was born is that I wasn't born a millennial or an iPad kid, and that is enough to get me by. Obviously, I could have been born in even better times (born to fight in WWII and emerge with America's last glory, or, even better, as a late boomer), but I'll take what I received
>>952414036lol. ww3 is guaranteed as of now. the only thing guaranteed to cause ww3 is doing nothing
>>952414097>but I'll take what I receivedtype shit
>>952414109Or walking left / right in the mandella effect. Straight forward nukes ? Yeah no fuck that.
OP here. My power went out and I started breaking shit in my room. It's almost like there's been rolling black outs in my area now. EVERYDAY FOR TWO FUCKING WEEKS THE GOD DAMN POWER KEEPS GOING OUT!!!!!!
