Seriously what the fuck happened, I got in pretty late in 2017, left for a while, came back when that schizo Cecil was shitting up the board by the literal fuckin hour, left again and now it’s basically, bald thread, schizo thread, starving schizos thread, what is shoe thread, how dress like dis thread, plus fragrance/watch thread. Now These are fine as long as actual discussions happen in parallel but seems the former overtook the latter. And scrolling the waywt thread is like browsing r/mfa on a slow weekday, painful. So…what the fuck happened?Was the downfall a succession of disconnected events or was there a big exodus of cool users who got fed up and left? Did actual fa people subscribe to l’étiquette and finally learned how to dress well and over time forgot this cursed board? Where did everyone go? Where are the jannies? And is this place truly doomed?
>>18153918trannies destroyed waywt with off topic cross dressing fetish bullshit and some skulls got smashed loleverything else seems slow but fine idk
>>18153918huh so you didn't realize we all moved to the new site>nobody tell this fag where everyone migrated to
>>18153958please gib
>>18153918Because you can only talk about fashion so much un til your just repeating yourself.
>>18153918a guy named pigfuck drove away a lot of tripfags and decent posters in the mid 2010s
>>18153918Like many other small boards, /fa/ has no dedicated jannies. Upwards of 60% of threads are either obvious baits or trolling and should be deleted, but with no in-house jannies nothing ever gets removed so quality of the board continuously declines.
moot just needs to delete every generalthe schizophrenic that spams bald content used to be a lot worse d esu
>>18153918>Where did everyone go?instagram, discordalso 4chan isn't bored college students anymore.everyone here is old and has jobs now, and new blood coming in are actual eldery people who got banned from reddit.>Where are the jannies?busy serving subpoena requests on the right wing terrorist pipeline boards
>>18154003At the very least he owned early Raf Simons stuff that archivebeasts now cream themselves over. I never thought he was a good poster but at least he put his money where his mouth is.https://www.grailed.com/riotriotriot/feedback>$300 for DBSS high tops
>>18154778>instagram, discordDont forget tiktok.
>>18153958I'll tell him. It's Tumblr.
>>18153958What a way to illustrate my point, this place really became one gigantic toxic sewer
>>18154003I wasn’t there, any crunchy drama from those days?
>>18154910It's mostly just tiktok. All the "cool" /fa/gs are scrolling through their Chinese spyware and subversion app's feed mindlessly like a bunch of NPC at this very moment. The tiktok addiction has gotten so bad that even youtube had to come up with its own version of an ADHD friendly video clips scrolling app to keep its users from mass migrating to tiktok.
Lookism.Do you know what a "vulnerable narcissist" is? Look up some youtube videos about it and watch the least retarded ones.They are anti-content. They do not post content of their own and actively discourage others from doing so.Where "content" could include ideas, pictures, opinions, even proper critiques.
>>18155022not really anything that interesting, just this one dude who would spam mean threads about all the other tripfags until one by one they all just stopped posting
>>18153918>i got in pretty late in 2017you missed prime /fa/, i dont think there was even designer general threads or discussion of fashion week threads reaching bump limit fast af
>>18155827>>18155022>>18154003people love scaring away decent or good posters. Recently the model looking guy with the e girl gf and Arachni. They doxxed Arachni and harrassed his irl friends and family and the other had his personal stuff leaked along with his penis.
>>18155883Based on writing style I'm convinced it's the work of two bitter anons who just harass anyone who posts often enough to be recognizable. The bulk of their ire goes to the trannies which is weird because the troons live for any attention, even negative because it lets them feel like powerful victims. But if you look at anyone who posts more than once per thread, there's always inane comments about their clothes that don't even make sense, and the comments are in the same tone/style as the tranny bait comments.I could accept the vitriol if they ever posted any sort of fit to put their money where their mouth is but it never comes. A couple threads back one of them posted "his" fit and it ended up being a pic from Reddit in 2018 that he stole. Pathetic.
>>181539182008 : I said he this is a new board cool Tom, play, unpop, jackal, franz, Miranda posted 2009: fat girl named spoony posted her tits everyday while unemployed, casemods stealing from Ross and posting online, everyone wish h&m came to America 2010: blah decided to send nudes and cybersex everyone on fa. H&M overplayed 2011: Uniqlo obsession asap rocky ishygddt posting 2012: already kinda shitty, I think indre and her druggie ass buddies started posting this was all passé and the generation of trips that were lame 2013: more down fall 2014: mostly dead 2015: trump shit started politics on /fa/ 2016: fa blows up again during trump years mostly stuff like soiboyz chicks etc2017: mostly wojak and frog posting2018: consumerism sneaker head bullshit 2019: more sneaker head 2020: ducking around pandemic
>>18155827Pigfuck was one of the only tripfags other than Cecil that I agreed with the majority of their opinions with All other trips had this closeted homosexual repression vibe to them
>>18155914how the fuck are you still herelike ive been on 4chan since 2008 probably but i don't know any other trips who have consistently hung around, and you're on multiple boards toothat being said yeah pigfuck was a schizo but also not totally wrong about a lot of stuff
i wonder what pigfuck would make of 2024 /fa/who was the tripfag that was bald and posted photos of him wearing rick owens stuff? wore baggy sweats with extremely low rise i can't remember much else
>>18155920Oh, I got no life and I’m an asshole so I got no friends So most people that have met their wives and husbands and started a real life and made friends… never happened for me I tend to annoy or piss People off instantly lol It’s got it’s benefits though, people avoid me at work and when I piss people off just by being present, it tilts them whe I play tournaments or get into confrontations like I get a lot of free shit from customer service to get me to go away
>>18155922Trunks … I wouldn’t be surprised if he was a trans He started off with Rick owens then further and further started like copping women’s pieces until he was mostly cross dressing and people were like goading him on He’s probably tucking his dick and on her for sure now
>>18153918Most people don’t post fit and most people can’t handle criticism Millennials in general really are a sensitive bunch In the end a lot of guys post stupid shit but never back it up If you talk big post fit and if you post fit be ready to get burned who cares if some guys don’t like your fit or how you look and sometimes they have a point and you can improve your looks You want a bubble echo chamber go to Reddit. I’m really baffled how in a fashion forum there are so few people who want to show off their styles and clothes
>>18156016now that is fucking cringe. Nice awkward hindu face, mutt.
>>18153918The whole site is dead, thanks to the great work of jannies over the years.I'm currently banned from /pol/ for making a thread about technology (related to politics), permabanned from /tv/ for making a thread about youtube. I guess Hiroshimoot is ok with trannies having killed his site, treating users like shit.Hence why the userbase is total shit now, they are either thrid world newfags who will go to reddit once they learn proper english or the saddest/blandest people who survived the bans and are ok being treated like dirt.
>>18156095Thanks for proving my point bro. Ironically that’s a 10/10 exchange for the theme of this thread
>>18156134No :3
>>18156149too much product perdeep. crusty looking hair from product is fucking gross. but that's the shitskin mudblood mentality. Gaudy
>>18156154Yea the product thing I get we latins love to overdo it lmao last time another anon also said it looks to groomeddon’t get why you are so angry though Drop some fit bro
>>18155914What happened to Cecil? Did he like fucking die or something? His posts always made me laugh, he was completely unhinged.
Amazing, I make a thread asking why fa died and inevitably an anon insults another poster. Priceless lmao.
>>18153958stop being so selfish. We all moved to reddit OP
>>18156190You know, the sad thing is, I don’t even think you’re trolling. 4chan really became what it hated most.
>>18156191Reddit's userbase is way less shitty. It's not full of broke ass faggots from Eastern Yurop, India or Idaho who work at McDonalds at best.The only good thing about this site was freedom of speech, back in 2007 or so, but it's been worse year after year. It's long gone.
>>181559012012-2015 was sufu faggotry and endless rick and julius posting coming from 2011 effay which was cringe rolled denim and john varvatos boots it felt like the futuremost 50iq frogshit is posted by the mod team to keep the board moving, this goes for every board.
>>18156212Yeah desu I sometimes pop in here because before covid hit there were interesting pics posted from time to time, but now it’s a barren land. It’s hilarious and sad that fucking r/mfa is genuinely a better place to hang out than this piece of shit board now.
>>18156180Yea he really drove my point home lmao
Trannies killed it
>>18153918I think its a matter of effort and attention. It's easier for users make low effort clickbait threads (ie: why am i balding?, why do women dress like sluts?, why do women not dress like sluts?, why do people have tattoos?) which get instant attention, and gratification for the OPs of said threads. In contrast, threads which require different users to put some effort into their contributions, or require expertise in the topic at hand die off quickly. It also doesn't help that 4chan users tend to be autistic shut ins, and autists like routine, leading to the same shitty threads gaining all the attention.
>>18156358Yeah the moral of the story is: we should all get the fuck out of here. I’m OP and I’m likely never coming back. Got some good pics for my visual library but seems like the people posting those tapped out ages ago.
>>18156374Only three threads have ever inspired me on /fa/https://warosu.org/fa/thread/14750608https://warosu.org/fa/thread/15643765https://warosu.org/fa/thread/14534315Probably not what you're looking for. I have no idea what to call this style or where these pictures all came from, but I thought it was an interesting collection of shit that wasn't really easily definable if you know what I mean
>>18156166Im angry because I don't like brown people. Pretty straightforward. It doesn't look too groomed, it looks sticky and just nasty. I used to use too much product until a GF at the time made me aware of it. No one likes to touch greasy, crusty, crap in someones hair. Fingers get stuck/now hands have fucking residue on it. not to mention it causes build up on the scalp. Stop doing it, a dime size is all you need. You fucking spic.
>>18156180how about you fuck off, yeah?
>>18156479Hmm so you think it’s too groomed noted bro thx for the heads up
>>18156484Relax Chico why are you so angry
>>18156507you're a greasy disgusting spic underneath the facade. >>18156509kill yourself
>>18156149hot
>>18156384Yeah these three threads are genuinely good, thanks
>>18156384Lmao based Cecil insulting everyone. I really miss that guy, did he die or something?
>>18155149>>18153918>>18155020i think this image pretty much sums up the reason nobody cool wants to be on /fa/ at this point
>>18156190>>18156212>>18156252never forget
>>18156510Relax Chico it’s not that deep :3You are welcome to show us how it’s done >>18156513Grazie my man
Millennials aged out of caring about clothes (or really anything, they all settled down) and 4chan is primarily a millenial site.
>>18156979Well that does explain the irrational zoomer bashing in every post
>>18156653He’s still around he just posted like last week
>>18156728Thread, pretty much. This place is a lifeboat for retards
Meta threads are for fags. Take it to /lgbt/
Never underestimate the damage that even just couple of dedicated schizos can inflict on regular topics or the board as whole. Even if you personally know to ignore them, they will take focus away from stuff that actually matters and eventually kill discussion.
>>18157477So again, Jannie being fucking useless. 4chan is proof moderation is needed
>>18157496go fuck yourself you self policing fucking redditnigger. Get the fuck out of here.
while things are bad, yes, theres always things that can be done to improve morale.I remember a while back i tried making a "Fitpics By Other Anons" thread which helped things be a little more positive, with people sharing outfits they thought were good and showing that this place still has the occasional good OC and moments of appreciationWe could also do some more /fa/ humour threads too, and the occasional (good-spirited) shitpost thread, the kind where everyone sort of immediately gets the joke and plays into it, not the kind where it just exists to put others down or get people mad
>>18157477lol so true
>>18156128the hair's really what ruins this and makes it all look cheap, because if your hair doesn't look natural and healthy, everything else you have on also looks cheap and most likely bootleg
>>18158235Hmm the hair seems to really be a thang. I allready thought about going back to a buzzcut though. Bootleg isn’t my style. In this outfit everything except the loafers is Zara the loafers are prada I don’t like fake stuff but I also don’t buy brands for the branding I get it if the quality is on par Thx for the feedback been thinking about changing up hairstyles either way
>>18158274If you're really serious about getting feedback it's the one thing you'll get the most pushback on, and honestly what's doing the most damage to your overall look. Anything more in the "I woke up like this and my hairs naturally healthy and beautiful" will work wonders and really make everything else pop. Also, please start pressing your trousers, it looks like you pulled them out of a bag under your bed.
>>18158274>>18158381hair is the most important thing there's this asshole who refuses to cut his idiotic hair and he is absolutely clueless the punishing damage it is doing to his quote unquote fithonestly if you have bad hair people stop there and move on
>>18158383men are le not allowed to have long hair
>>18158482not when it looks like a shitty joke and makes us ALL look bad
>>18158383>I hate seeing thing X in one thread>No, I won't leave the thread>Yes, I will continue to look at the thing I hate>Yes, I will save the image and take it to unrelated threads to talk about how much I totally dislike it>Yes I do this 18 hrs a dayJust go pay for a tranny escort at this point. If it's terrible (which it will be) it will be out of your system, you won't obsess about it and spend all day talking about how much you hate them, etc. If you like it, congrats you're a fucking faggot, hope you accept it and shut up as well.I don't have a plan for where to find you a bald hooker but give me time and I'll sort that too.
>>18158381>>18158383All fair points Good advice thanks man
>>18153918Stfu no one gives a shit
>>18158520Lmao the schizo spammer is Mexican my fucking sides
>>18159029The one that mogged you ?
>>18159046uh no, the one that has never posted fit
>>18159056That description fits unfortunately a lot of people on this board lmao
>>18158383you genuinely need to be locked up why do you have pictures of her saved?
>>18153918how do i dress?
>>18156128That fit makes you look like a spanish immigrant recently arriving at a south american developing nation in the Early 20th century to become a farmer, Which is to say, Great fit, Very classy, I'm not a fan of smooth surface clothing myself.
