did most oldfags just killed themselves?
>>24305100Nah, you faggots just ignored rule number 1 and 2, which ruined bantNot to mention that none of the newfags know how to make content and only know how to act like tranny faggots
this website is absolutely tiring with how much politics, twitter or whatever seasonal current event is forced here by its modern userbase. not to mention the automaton interactions that are cycled in ever instance of a thread. the aforementioned userbase is so nauseating and dull to interact with in any given instance. i was lurking /v/ after having abandoned the bored for so long and it is abysmal. it feels like ever single thread on there is the regardless of topic. same way the users interact, same way how each try to force off-topic or dead end "i win, you lose" arguments. i mean, it is amazing how forced "arguments" are generated in a random shitpost. /tv/? it feels about the same except there hasnt been a new meme to spam in a very long time. same rehashed stuff, i guess there is always a baskin boberts thread. those are funny./vr/ feels like an anachronistic /v/ in that it is basically /v/ now but with topics that cannot be made past a certain established year./ck/ feels like facebook with its interaction farming threads cyclically made by a bot. although /ck/ has historically had the worst moderation of all the boards i have used. /co/....urgh....bbbbb*barf* dont wanna talk about that one/a/ is trashlurking is so tiresome. then there are curated circle like twitter and whatever big social media there is which siphons new blood to explore the internet. fact of the matter is, this place sucks. tl;dr>this place friggin sucks desuyo!>>24305168
>>24305100no a lot of them probably succeeded in life & moved onprobably some moved to china like faggotsothers run businesses or families or whatever, idkas for how many did that vs how many killed themselves, idk....
>little girl cartoons grow the fuck up
>>24305275i'm sad about /a/>is forced here by its modern userbase.you think the userbase enjoys it?do you think it's organic?truly?
>>24305285that's a doll though.
>>24305286What are you sad about? Chin up, son. You will wake up the next, and start the day all over again. Perhaps it won`t be the same as yesterday, but the little nuances add up to a new day. Go on, enjoy the undying generals and necrotic "read along" threads. Why not fire up that mobile data and make a sneed thread. Live a little.
>>24305275i hate how centralized the internet is these days.truly miss when sites felt different from each other, now everywhere is the same and it's very lame. there's no originality nor individuality, everything that is annoying is pushed everywhere, i'm really tired.i wish xitter never existed.politics also ruined everything, it specially affected this place since we got full of people who think this /pol/ resumed the entire site.
This is the only board I can handle unless I"m really buzzed. (Reddit spacing)This is also the only board I can handle when I'm really buzzed.
>>24305100>did most oldfags just killed themselves?I'm still alive bitch.
>>24305464Zoomers didn't start using the internet until it had already become awful
>>24305480NOT FOR LONG!!!!!!
>>24305522grim. they never stood a chance.
I guess every generation is the first to do something, and the last to do something else.
>>24305100Some of them are still around.
>>24305349hmmm>>24305376i feel you, but i bet there's still a similar underground internet
>>24305462xd>>24305522the adversary will not be forgiven
>>24305100yes, most fags die b4 getting olg, and most of them diy
>>24306111some of them are still around on /bant
>>24305376I hate politics so much
I'm still here and turn 38 in September.
>>24306538Is it you?
>>24307286
>>24307321Bantoids can't even be oldfags if this is their home board. Bant was made during the great reddit migration of 2016 or something.
>>24305275>/vr/ feels like an anachronistic /v/ in that it is basically /v/ now but with topics that cannot be made past a certain established year.trueI think extending the allowed generation of release did a number on it>>24307329but /bant/ was the last bastion of oldfag soul + with a new somewhat discord-esque culture of recognizable posters (but it was before discord got big, people began migrating to discord during the /bant/ years and it was part of what killed it)also some were actual 4chan oldfags who made it their new home because it was appealing to them
years ago I considered making an imageboard that would ban any mention of current events, but I thought that might feel too repressive and against chan culture and no one would use it
>>24307467/bant/ looked kinna decent in its early era. i kinna regret not given it a chance then, but at the same time, there were other better places i enjoyed that are no longer around now or are worse in this current generation. /bant/ today seems really miserable and empty. we need a hero....we need yonkers...
>>24307507what other places did you use if I might ask
>>24307467I was told it was similar 2 old /b/ from some old banters. I never clicked on bant until a couple of years after its "golden age" though so I just have to go off of what people tell me.
Most of us have grown beyond the bucket of crabs that is 4chan. This mentality of "lol they must've killed themselves" is indicative of your misery that you want to share with others. You're not content suffering in silence no you need others to join you and validate your misery. If you can't succeed then nobody should.At a certain point we mature and realize everything that's said by the denizens of 4chan is detrimental for your happiness. Once you stop engaging and live your life you'll find that everyone here is not only awful but has no desire to make their life better. Some people are just fucked yeah but most of you aren't you're just giving up because you're weak.
>>24307580I heard that comparison often on here but I wasn't around for old /b/ so I don't really know. I'm a ~2016 eternal 4chan newfag, but I'm a /bant/ oldfag of late 2017, which was when it began to have more named posters and homosexuality, and it did still have a lot of OC but I think the peak of OC creation must've been mid-2017 /bant/ during its genesis when all the different characters (/bant/-tan, cirno, duke nukem, simon) were being established. Based on what I know about old /b/ at least I would say /bant/ had less edginess, less cp, more country banter, more comfiness, and more known posters. The similarities would've been the OC, the randomness (especially compared to what /b/ had become which is just porn dumps), and the recurring memes and inside jokes unique to the board. The recurring posts were probably even more repetitive than any other board though (sakuya giving cirno the fishe, alzheimers guy). You would also see random interesting things happening like a guy documenting himself breaking into a construction site and climbing a crane.I enjoyed it a lot but I guess I was an excitable 14-15 year old at the time
>>24307690I meant to say but forgot, I think the recurring memes were more s4s-like than /b/-like. So /bant/ was like a hodgepodge of old /b/, /int/ (probably some krautchan /int/ influence as well), [s4s], and I suppose Discord, but many more interesting things happened here in one year than in the entirety of Discord's existence.
>>24305100depends what u mean. most of the actual oldfags are gone but didn't kill themselves just moved onto other shit.ppl who were newfags in the late 2000s are still around
>>24305100>the trannies killed themselves?
>>24305100I am still here, everyone just ignores the culture and rules so I don't engage much anymore>>24305168this
>>24307507omg ur just like me, i thought it was a trash board and now i barely visit the other boardsyou seem to be doing well in the other thread, gave me some good laughs>>24307580i agree with them, even if im not an old banter :)
>>24307990I used to be on /bant/ when it was new but just like the other anon there were other better places I ended up going to more but now I am basically just here and on /r9k/ sadly
>>24305168i found bant, no one told me about it and some of the threads here still have themes and a bit (not a lot) content reminiscent of fun /b/>>24308027omg they're so mad/angry and whiney on r9k, i can only take so much but sometimes they have threads i likei've been wondering why anons dont really use images on that board though
>>24308075>but sometimes they have threads i likeThat's about the same for me, just scrolling until you find an interesting thread then be comfy there for a bit or just lurk at whiny people. Sometimes if you wanna vent into the void it can be good because unless you are a female then you can get a lot of attention but usually just people simping and being mean to you kek
Be the oldfag you wish was still around.
>>24308232i try
>>24308232baiting tards all day! ....okay its just one thread
>>24308282Keep trying>>24308311What did he mean by this
>>24307507>>24307990AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
▲▲▲
>>24308452>>24308462
>>24308441shut up
>>24308463I am embarrased
>>24308474I don't think it works on bant at all anymore if that makes you feel better
>>24308487does it work on any board?
>>24308441You want attention? So you scream like a baby? Interacting with you will only encourage your poor comportment.....>>24308441>>24308441>>24308441>>24308441
>>24308487It does, I had forgotten that desu thanks anon
>>24308093half the time i make threads on that board they think im a female for some reasonlast time some seething chud decided to make a pretty funny vocaroo about ithttps://voca.ro/1eIC5C63d3Vd>>24308432nonsensical gibberish is my primary form of communication and im 'pretending' to be retarded in the pi thread with germanon>>24308474they patched it :(
>>24308508>https://voca.ro/1eIC5C63d3VdKekked, also what's wrong with his voice?
>>24308493It should still work on /b/ I think. I had a copy and pasteable one that worked a couple of years ago. >>24308499Happy 2 help
>>24308546>It should still work on /b/ I think.I should try
>>24308559Does >>>/b/949052018Count?
>>24308546>>24308559
>>24308546so mods specifically made /b/ display text differently? didn't know that
>>24308564huh, it didn't work the old way weird.
>>24308520not sure lol but it really added to the chuddiness hehe>>24308564i would say yah, wonder why they broke it for bant >__> lamewas that your post>>24308571what
>>24308577I tried it the old way and it did not work for me, you might have to do it some now way then.
A bunch of rings to rule them all.>>24308508It probably has some convoluted hidden meaning, I'm not gonna try to decipher it though.
>>24308577you definitely type like a woman
>>24308597I do see it too
>>24308572I really have no idea why its like this desu. I'll do the same thing here and it won't work. ▲ ▲ ▲>>24308576My way still seems to work >>>/b/949052150>>24308577Maybe they don't want people playing those kinds of games here since its a /b/ thing or something. It was my post
as we are here post some old screencaps you like or so
>>24308603>My way still seems to workWhich way is that?
>>24308603I guess they wanted triforces and similar posts to be allowed on /b/ but not on boards with topics to prevent spam. They just forgot to enable it in /bant/ too because they forgot /bant/ exists.
>>24308631They always forget about /bant/ it's been a trial board since 2017
>>24308621The ones I posted are copy and pastable if you want to steal them >>24308631Did they ever work on bant?
>>24308646Idk, I don't remember them ever working, but I would think they should since it's a random board like /b/ and is full of spam anyway
>>24308646>The ones I posted are copy and pastable if you want to steal themI guess I have to, but I would like to be able to do it myself desu
>>24308597>>24308601n-n-no i dont......>>24308603strange, they make the oddest decisions about boardsdont think i'll ever not be mad about /gif/ >>24308631>literally just a checkboxi believe this
>>24308671>n-n-no i dont......you definitely do
>>24308671>dont think i'll ever not be mad about /gif/what happened to /gif/?
>>24308699It's just porn now also they changed it from 10 pages to 5, not sure if that is the things they are mad about
>>24308685im actually melonade?>>24308704>>24308699yeah the change from 10 to 5 pages i had been maintaining elaborate filters to get rid of the porn but now its 95% porn and the non porn threads sage too quickly now
>>24308659I can't see why it would be a problem. Its not like people really be spamming triforces all over the place. Hardly anyone even does it on /b/ anymore. Might as well be some kind of lost art form. >>24308668Can't help with that unfortunately >>24308671Engagement is more important to (((them))) than whatever perceived quality we care about.
>>24308704>>24308720weird changeI always just used /wsg/
>>24308720>yeah the change from 10 to 5 pagesyeah that change killed the last few good threads on there, I guess /wsg/ is still there atleast
>>24308731>>24308734any threads on /wsg/ you like?
>>24308738Depends what you are going for, I had a comfy time in a "nostalgia" youtube thread which was mainly stuff from early to mid 2010s
>>24308720>im actually melonade?I am sorry I have no idea who melonade is
>>24308726i will write a strongly worded VERY MASCULINE post addressing the issue>>24308731>>24308734/wsg/ has mostly been known as a zoomer board and you cant post retards blowing off their hands with fireworks/gif/ posters were pretty funny too with a twisted sense of humor that i really enjoyed>>24308738/gvy/ is probably my favorite thread, not a huge fan of vtubers in general but the clips can be pretty entertainingthe 2wheels/4wheels guy moved from gif to wsg but idk what happened to himand 'webms for other boards' can also be interesting>>24308743probably a good thing
>>24308771>you cant post retards blowing off their hands with fireworksTrue it can't be as wild as /gif/ sadly but it's better than just porn at this point>>24308771>probably a good thinghow so? now I am interested in knowing who it is. I searched for it and just some melon drink came up
>>24308787ohh nvm it's some k-pop youtuber? Yeah probably for the best I don't know who it is then
>>24308771Make sure you buy pass and your post is on >>>/vip/
>>24308787i was just being silly, she's just a tripfag on the board that some love and some hateher and I get along for the most parthttps://archive.palanq.win/bant/search/username/melonade/>>24308814who says i dont already?? [spoiler] ok i dont... [/spoiler]but have been considering it.... after that last ban though hmm
>>24308793bruh
>>24308821>she's just a tripfag on the board that some love and some hateI should probably pay attention to the tripfag names more then I usually pay it no attention so I don't notice it a lot of the time. I guess it comes from not liking attentionfagging on this site
>>24308823sorry anon I am retarded
>>24308869nah it's a good sign that you don't know /bant/ celebs, it was just funny
>>24305100
