I've been using 4chan since I was 14. I am 23 now. How old are you guys?
>>82669452I'm 20, i've been using this site since i was 15 in 2020I don't think I'm even the same person anymore as I was before then. I regret ever coming here
I was 19 when I first visited this site. I am 36 now, almost 37.
I turned 18 in August and started using it at 17.How did you use it if it is a site for adults?
>>82669452too youngtoo old
This place is a literal trap.
>>82669452I'm 21 and I've been using it since I was 15.
>>82669452started sixteennow eighteeni have no doubt i will still be here well into my 30s and 40s
youll never know my true age feds c:<data miners btfo1!!!
>>82669452Probably since I was 14 or 15. Im 28 now.
>>82669452I've been here since I was 15 or 16 and I'm 34 now.
>>82669452i started 12 years ago
>>82669452Started 14. Now 24. Surprisingly I am more successful financially and sexually than 99% of posters here. I hit the 4chan lottery
>>82669452I've been using le ebin 4chains since the early 2000s. I'm 33 now. Spent most of my time on somethingawful and newgrounds and found my way here through those. You newfags don't know shit about shit. like 90% of the people that post now are from the 2016 election era.
>>8266945212, im 30 now and this shit probably damaged my brain development
>>82669452I'm almost 27 and came here first in late 2013.
>>82669596As a fellow 33 year old anyone with half a brain grew out of this a decade ago
>>82669452Ive been on this site since I was 11 and now I'm 18. It has irreversibly damaged my brain.>>82669472A good 10% of this site is underage.
>>82669452I hate bans but these underage retard posts need to go
>>82669566I hit number 11 this weekend. You?
>>82669601Twelve year olds post here .....
>>82669660he was 12 and what is this?
I was 17 when I went to /b/ for the first time and now I'm 37.
>>82669452I am in the exact same situation as you.
>>82669452I started at 16 although my old friend showed me this place at 15, I thought it was dumb and degenerate back then. I'm 18 now, and unironically it might have been better for me, although it did make socially retarded and chuddy>>82669496>>82669636>>82669472Hello bros, 2007chads reporting
>>82669648shut it faggot the site has always been for edgy teenagers - moot literally was one
>>82669452since 2008, I was 13
>>82669452>15 in 2009 >31 nowI never stood a chance kek
>>82669779>Hello bros, 2007chads reportingi feel like i have one foot in the grave right now. youth is wasted on the young
>>82669848>youth is wasted on the youngyup. spent two years neeting and scrolling this shithole all day
>>82669779>>82669856it's not too late to leave this place forever
>>82669816>edgy teenagersBeing a full blown retard is not edgy
Was about 21 when Lowtax banned the whorehouse and Moot made 4chan.43 now, the ride doesn't end.
>>82669863why would i want to do that? its my home.
>>82669879nah please leave im begging youeven fucking discord is better than rotting on here, i've been here for 5 years and its killed my soul
>>82669870Im So glad they have their hats on backwards so it doesn't get in the way of deep throating each other
>>82669870AI slop fuck off clanker
>>82669906I'm >>82669779 and I've already rotted my soul. I have no place else, no one else, and discord is full of evil people. Maybe this place reminds me of my old friend. I'm not sure why I like this place so much more than anything else. Then again, the only other thing I have is Tiktok which is severely brain rotted.
It's fucking over for us, isn't it?
>>82669452I've been using 4chan since I was 14 years old, too. I'm 29 years old now.
>>82669906>even fucking discord is better than rotting on here, i've been here for 5 years and its killed my soulNo shot, Discord is the most soul sucking place ever, that and video games too for me atleast. I stick to 4chan, I should probably get a fucking life though.
>>82669452I learned English recently, so I became an active 4chan user at age 16 (I'm 19 now). But I've been accessing anonymous boards since I was 12.
>>82669992bro i don't get the discord hate. i loved my discord phase from 2017-2020 i was actually somewhat happy back thenmaybe it got worse? i wouldnt' really know these days. video games do suck but there's like a bajillion other fun hobbies you can do
>>82670011>bro i don't get the discord hate. i loved my discord phase from 2017-2020 i was actually somewhat happy back thenFor me hell noooo, I look back on those days, roughly the same period. I hate it, wish I was never on there.>video games do suck but there's like a bajillion other fun hobbies you can doFor me one of those hobbies is 4chan, which is less a hobby and more a circle of hell. I don't think I'll ever live a normal life, infact I despise normal people, so I think I'll always be an abnormal person but fuck it.
>>82670023>I don't think I'll ever live a normal life(not quoted) if you integrated well with 4chan's culture, it means you were never normal in the first place.
>>82669452I am also 23 but I started using 4chan only a year ago.I think I'd be much worse off if I were in your shoes.
if there are any femanons in this thread around my age, drop your discord
26 and I've been here since I was 10
>>82670061oh fuck, i forgot to include 18+. or just add me here dsc: grphxz. honestly, anons can add me too lol, why not. shoot the shit
>>82670061picking up women on this board is dangerousheed my warning....
>>82670081>>82670079yeah, i should probably fuck off to /soc/ i forgot...
>>82670044>(not quoted) if you integrated well with 4chan's culture, it means you were never normal in the first place.I've always known I was not as normal as other children since I was very small, I wonder if it was like this for anyone else, not autistic though
>>82670102i admire the hustle but i've added women here before and they're very scary so it's just a warning
>>82669452I'm 28 and I've used 4chan since I was 13, albeit not much lately because it's unusable and zoomer and /pol/tard infested. Really I stopped "regularly" browsing in about 2022 or so. /r9k/ went from the robot board to Failed Normalfag Central.
>>82670118>and they're very scary so it's just a warningwhat if i'm scary too?
Started using with 16 and I'm 18 years old. More one for the '07 "chads". I believe I'm well integrated with /a/, that's enough for me.
I was 12 or 13 when I found 4chan. I'm 34 now
>>82670133there's nothing scarier than a bpdemon...!!!or being ghosted, that hurts too
>>82670148>or being ghosted, that hurts tooi'm a veteran on that front. not enough talk with bpdemons tho
>>82670157>not enough talk with bpdemons thoDon't, they force you to talk to them for hours while they're crying and telling you they'll kill themself.
>>8266945226, 27 in a few months. I'm almost positive I first discovered 4chan around 11 or so when I was looking for porn pics on my PSP's internet browser. So, 2010? Smartphones were a thing, but they weren't yet ubiquitous with tweens and teens as they are nowadays. The PSP was one of the first discreet pocketable multi-media devices. Before I ever had a smartphone or computer, I had my PSP for porn pics and the Nintendo Wii for porn videos. I've been a coomer since I was a child and discovered masturbation at a very early age. Anyways, I started posted on /r9k/ itself roughly around 2015 when I was 16 and started getting brutally "blackpilled". I've been stuck on this shithole for a decade. To no surprise, my life has only gotten worse.
>>82670164>they're crying and telling you they'll kill themself.there really exists 20 yo bpdemons? um, jobs? most femanons have just ghosted me
>>82670157i have sympathy for those who have it but it's really hard to handle if they're not in treatment for itand we're on r9k, not exactly known for mental stability or healing here
all these anons that discovered and use 4chan as underage users really makes you think...
>>82670190how many times did i get baited by zoomers.. god i need to leave this place
>>82670169Makes you wonder if 4chan is a psyop designed to entrap people for sadistic purposes.
>>82670023>For me hell noooo, I look back on those days, roughly the same period. I hate it, wish I was never on there.I mean i still had no life but back then i actually talked to real people and i had a pretty good time besides doomscrolling social mediaI liked 2017-19 discord because people were still not completely brainrotted by politics back then and were less hostile, it was really easy to make friends. Even 2020 was goated, i had a whole circle of friends i was the leader of, it's all gone now though.>I don't think I'll ever live a normal life, infact I despise normal people, so I think I'll always be an abnormal person but fuck it.You're just reinforcing the idea you won't be normal in your mind. You don't need to be "normal" but you can socialize with people, get real hobbies and not become a dopamine zombie. If 4chan is your only hobby that's really worrying but you can reverse that
>>82670201All those fucking 'jaks. Those were kids fucking with us. Ugh.
>>82669452I've been just using for porn, but 30 now, been using it since 23
Started browsing this godforsaken shithole back in 2008, when I was 16. I am 33 now. Don't think I'll ever be able to leave this cursed place. Kinda depressing to see so many young newfags. Feels like my generation has deeply dwindled on this website. You fuckers will never be true channers.
>>82669452I've been here since 2018 or so, maybe a bit earlier. Currently 27
>>82670241>I mean i still had no life but back then i actually talked to real people and i had a pretty good time besides doomscrolling social mediaYea but that's just through a screen, I can't get past that fact no matter what.>I liked 2017-19 discord because people were still not completely brainrotted by politics back then and were less hostile, it was really easy to make friends. Even 2020 was goated, i had a whole circle of friends i was the leader of, it's all gone now though.Yea I was a high ranking person (cringe) in multiple large discord servers, I guess it was fun but eugh, I'd rather have no online friends because they all go away eventually>You're just reinforcing the idea you won't be normal in your mind.

I started regularly browsing when I was 12-13, and am 21 now. I think this site has allowed me to greatly develop my critical thinking skills. I was a self described incel for a bit but then realised it's mostly bullshit. I'm a failed normalfag at the worst mentalcel at best. But it's led me to meet some really interesting people and expand my worldview a lot.
>>82669452Since I was 16 but I only really became active when I was 20. Before I just occasionally went onto boards like pol or b out of curiosity.
who cares the memes are funny people are very creative here. Sometimes i wonder how much time and energy goes into creating those extremely funny shitpost
>>826699064chan is my rotting bed, and i will stay in it
>>8266945234, been using the site since about 2006.
>>82669452I started using 4chan when I was 12, I'm 21 now, I was somehow never groomed
>>82669452>14 to 23Imagine spending the formative years of your short life in this god forsaken website. Bravo.

>>82669452Copying from another thread.I'm 36 It's been 17.5 years for me.I've somehow become a normie. Getting married next year. I'll always remember the fact I made a /hr/ thread that lasted +6 months (Audrey Hepburn related), used to look at a lot of dead women photos, played KS/got serious into that culture/meme group, was in almost every GSL/Korea time thread. Remember Tomboy & Rabbit Chan and was here for hackers on steroids.
I started using this site last year. I'm 35.
>>82670852Feels like I'm wasting my damn life. But it's hardly worse than Facebook or any of that shite so whatever.I also have a collection of 20,000 memes that I am equally ashamed and proud of
I was 14 I am now 18 so it hasn't been that long but its been a nice time.
>>82669452Same as you, must've been 13-14 when I started also
13, 25. I don't regret it, being a low-functioning autistic was a bigger factor in making my life as miserable as it is.
>>82669452Started browsing in 2005 because I learned about this site from ytmnd and I'm turning 36 in a couple of weeks. This site sucks but the rest of the internet is so much worse so I'm stuck here. I'm either browsing this place or watching youtube videos.
I was in the wrong place at the wrong time, /s4s/ 2013 saw this topkek GET and I was like hey that's perfect to finally get rid of lel, way too much le posting in those days driving me nuts, lel triggered me it had to go, so I start taking the lead and post kek here and there this board that board, until everyone started doing it, one of the first times tho I was on K and I was hallucinating all these frogs mostly Pepe I didn't know why a voice telling me people in the future will wonder how it all started, everything was going to change and that point in time was the catalyst to it all something cultural revolution, evil voices were there also trying to stop me from posting saying it would start the apocalypse, I was like yeah man that's too much ketamine for a day haha, that shit isn't real bro haha h-ha h-h-he....oh GodAnd THAT is how I got addicted to 4chan ladies and gentlemen and also scared as shit of the world, stayed here to see the consequences of that thing play out in front of me

>>82671163>Thinking of joining the military in my 30sGot an idea of branch/MOS?
>>82669481it's true. watch the antisocial network on netflix. bunch of feds here and the old mods got v&
on some sites in the us, namely porn sites, they require an ID to visit. I'm wondering if that's going to happen here or they'll just turn everything into blue boards for the underage people here if they can't reach new age verification standards that are coming.
>>82670913its been 8 years since i last spoke to hersee u next anniversary

>>82669452I think I started browsing when I was 12-13 but I didn't find r9k until I was about 14 I'm 27 now but I basically never come here anymore
>>82669452I am a 2012 newfag.

>>82669452I was 18 when I first started browsing 4chan, I am 33 now.Despite being a daily browser since 2010 I turned out normal enough, I am married with children, own a house and have a job and some semblance of a social life.
>>82669452I've used /r9k/ for many years and I'm almost 30. You never leave this place.
>>82669452I started browsing when I was super young to talk about sonic the hedgehog with people without having to create an account. I assume this is why most kids would've started browsing here. I'm 24.
>>82669452im 21. i've been using it since i was 13-14
>>82669452i've been a newfag since like, 2014 or sostarted lurking at 17 but my birthday is later in the year so...

>>82673619damn I done posted this in teh wrong thread, oh well
>>82669452>How old are you guys?40somethingvirgin incel aspie*sigh*
Started lurking and quickly enough posting at 12, while knowing of its existence probably since I was 11. I was already an ironic asshole before my visiting here so naturally it attracted me. To which extent any philosophical views, i.e. the popular nihilism typical here, my political views formed mostly independently, found here had influenced my humor and personality as opposed to simply my finding company in these things I dont know, though its granted they obviously did. Pic is a photoshopped meme from 12 year old me not long before I became an observer of this website.
>>8266945218 now but been on here since like 14 too
>>82669452Im now 18 i dont know if I will stay for a long time or end up being 30 and still on here??
>>82669452since 14-15, now 25. i still can't believe i've been older than most anons here for a while now.
Why are there specifically so many 18-year-olds here? Some weird collective post high school graduation existential crisis?
>>82669452I was here since I was 12. I'm 27 now
>>82673925In my recollection this place has always been for people lost in life right after high school or college and often people that drop out of there way far back to when I first got here. So to answer your question yes
>>82673925A bias as younger users will either not report their age or report as 18, and this thread generally caters to those who visited here from a young age and who are therefore younger in general, often still underage even as of now.
>>82669452On and off since like 14, ramped up past year or so, I'm 18.>>82673961No I'm actually 18.
>>82673925Growing up is scary. I dont know what to do. I dont know how Im supposed to do anything right and overnight everybody just expected me to know. After high school its hard to stay in touch with friends. Hard to have a social life while also figuring out what the hell you wanna do, what to say, what to think, how to act. Its actually the worst. And this place is stupid memes and people who dont know what the hell theyre doing either. Makes you feel better about having no plan whatsoever and feeling unable to picture any life for yourself in the future.
>>8267396818 is still most likely younger than the mean age, so my statement about a bias towards younger users still applies
>>82673619Deeeeeewddd XD

i started in 2007it is now 2025 and i am 30
>all these kiddies posting for yearsAnd here I thought I was just talking to retards. Seeing now how many underage babies went here it makes sense. I was talking to middle school retards.

>>82673992I get you. Nothing feels the same and Im just supposed like nothing is different or happening when everything is happening all at once and ai cant catch up. And the worst part? Everybody else seems to just be figuring it out like its easy. Feels like I missed a memo everyone else got or something. Might be cooked
>>82673975>>82673992>>82674028it's like looking into a mirroryou are all me
>>8266945231. Been here on and off since 18. I'm sorry C-19/Web 3.0 happened before your generation was old enough to experince so many things which are now fucked. On the brightside you're 23 so if you start doing something productive now it will compound and pay off when you're my age
>>82674028>Nothing feels the same and Im just supposed like nothing is different or happening when everything is happening all at once and ai cant catch up.I know, it's so drastically different from my entire life I've lived so far, it went by so fast, now I'm an adult.>Everybody else seems to just be figuring it out like its easy. Feels like I missed a memo everyone else got or something. Might be cookedYea it might be over for me desu, guess I should've started preparing the moment I started puberty or something.
I believe in retroactive bans for people who admit to using the site while underage, thereby making it shit.
>>82673997Even if the true number were to be very conservative, which I dont even think would be the case, you would inevitably still encounter many in the middle school if not elementary school range. Obviously these posters will be more memorable on average regarding their lack of assimilation on an apparently adult website.
>>82674076Shouldve started saving for a mortgage when I was in my dads balls. Shoulda started building credit as an infant. Aint no other way Im ever moving out at this rate. Everything is fucked.
>>82673925Something like that. I've been on 4chan for years, but only recently did I start feeling sad/angry about the fact that I'm a loser incel with no friends. Hence why I came here.
>>82674079>people who admit to using the site while underageWhy would the mods ban their favorite discord targets? There's a reason why underagb& threads take so long to be deleted
>>82674107>have big deposit>have stable reasonable income>impeccable credit score>apply for mortgage>computer says noREEEEEEEEEE
Started at 12, im 24. Can't stop, wont stop, dont wanna stop. Although I did fix my shit growing up and I have had sexo and friends and employment, no friends now but still gf and employment.
>>82669452>Never say your age in 4chan, Anon.<Why>Ban>I am using 6.5/7 Months already.
>>82674107>Shouldve started saving for a mortgage when I was in my dads balls. Shoulda started building credit as an infant. Aint no other way Im ever moving out at this rate. Everything is fucked.Yea it doesn't help that modern society is very unwelcoming and grim.>>82674167Is your gf cute
>>82674177she is, not fat, very pretty face, as tall as me despite me being a manlet (5'9), bit autistic and was slightly more mental in the past but is a lot less so now, works well.
>>82673925underages will say they are 18everyone under 18 turns into "im 18" to avoid bans
>>82674290I was born May of 2007 though
>>82674015My wife and I got to know each other long before we dated, we were mutually interested in each other. We got along really well at work, though we never crossed the line between work-friend and friend. The job, which I took when I was 20, forced me into social interaction with both coworkers and customers, I'm not great socially with people I don't know, but I'm good at faking it until I do get to know someone. Once I know someone I am capable of forming a stong bond with them, this goes for both friends and partners. I think that having that job was one of the best things that has ever happened in my life, it set me up almost completely to where I am today.I'm a genuine person, outside of customer service (which I don't do anymore) I'm almost incapable of being fake, I just feel very dishonest being fake to people. I think this helped me out because it attracted someone who really loves me for who I am.In today's socially isolated world I would have a much harder time finding someone.
I found this place back in 2007 when I was 16. Now I'm 33 lol
>>82669452This has to be rage-bait. Nigga im 32 --Am i the last millennial on this sight??! I always though I was the newfag bro..........ZAMN!!!!!!! been on here since 2014
>>82674840I typed this post out in a few stages and I realize now that I contradicted myself a bit and my advice basically boils down to "get a shitty job and just be yourself bro!".Truely sage wisdom.
>>82674931You sound gravely depressed.

>>82669459Came here in 2019.Even if I showed up when things were going down hill, this place was still pretty good compared to now.Also got annoyed that underagedniggers tried to take /r9k/ in particular, coming in waves.Who ever posted our shit on tiktok needs to die.

>>8267118317C/35T/25B iirc for the Army.I'll look into the Airforce more.I am also very interested in the Coast Guard but like the airforce it's harder to get in. iirc.I mean once I get my last cert(Sec+) hopefully I can get a better job but if not then that's what I've been looking into as my last/best option.

>>8266945222 just started using 4chan. Nothing changed though..
>>8266945231, using since 15. I used to be a chud, now I am a B B C spammer.
>>82679044Ahem, based.
>>82669452Since I was 19.I'm 39 now.Yes, I am an oldfag
I started using it when I was 13, I'm 32 now.Pic related is probably the oldest image on my computer that I believe was from 4chan (October 2006).
>>82679044ive always liked the bbc stuff but not for the race thing. i just have a thing for bigger and stronger men dominating more feminine men and taking their girl too for the heck of it. maybe because im bisexual and six foot three. i like any race to be the bigger guy but bbc stuff just happens comprise most of this genre. always found the race stuff to be retarded.
>>82679115Same for me man. 2005 holding it down for two decades now. I have kids who will be old enough to hear about this shithole soon. I'll tell turn to stay away
>>82674931Solid meal there, anon.
