What was oldfag /k/ culture like?

No one like Flan back then and they still dont.

Just about as gay as the current one, but a bit more funny and original

Extremely pro-ruskie.

That period pretty much ended a decade ago once all the cheap surplus finally dried out. Gone are the days where for the price of a few blowjobs you could get a nugget and a few cans of nugget food.

So it's not enough that you literal child molesting troons worked with the mods to push everyone else out, now you have to gloat over it too.

It was fun. I really enjoyed /wfg/ and the drawfag threads. I wrote a little bit for /wfg/ and had a small following there. A lot of bad actors ruined NF and the meet culture. I wonder what Dave /k/ radio is doing these days.

Are there still /k/ meetups?

After Big Dick got arrested, a lot of people are leery of meetups. Most states have their own Discords now, and people are more or less vetted to make sure they're not complete speds. You basically have to know someone to get into one.

It was still shitty, but we were all poorfags just trying to have fun and call each other niggerfaggots.
I'm not even an oldfag, but I shot with squid(made him shoot a tapco sks). He shot on my buddies property. I also personally knew outlaw if anyone here still remembers the '10s.

Conversations discussing ongoing conflicts were much more nuanced. It was also fun back when you had vets coming back home from Afghanistan back when the war was still popping off and sharing their experiences, both funny and horrific stories. Board wide it was just a different, more fun kind of vibe.

>It was also fun back when you had vets coming back home from Afghanistan
All their stories were just about boredom, MRE-shits, and watching IR surveillance feeds of the local Afghans fucking livestock.

Yeah, my group of /k/tards made a Discord a decade ago and we meet regularly a couple times a year, alternating between our homes. The filtering means nothing shitty happens, and nu/k/ is a fucking hellhole with nothing to offer and we're not keen to add any more from it.

We took our shooting more serious, but ourselves we took less seriously.
We had an unspoken rule that all martial cultures were cool, and generally hated all contemporary politicians.
And generally, we had a 3:15:2 ratio of narcissist namefags, well intentioned retards, and actual subject experts.

We've seen things you newfags wouldn't believe.
Bathtub simulated gas attacks in suburban apartments.
I've seen literal rimshit on the front page.
Dragonbreath used as varmint rounds.

All these memories will be lost in time. Like piss in the sea.......

There was actually a solid chance the other person you were talking to had guns. I'd wager the rate of gun ownership here has never been lower than it is now.

How old are we talking about ? Like 2018 old or pre party van old.

Because if your try to determine if /k or 4chan as a whole was better back then the answer is simple, it wasn't because 4chan or and part of it has never been good.

I remember him, never really cared though. Argued with him a few times, but at some point decided it was pointless to engage and then sorta zoned his threads out. It was only really after the war kicked off that I realized how utterly shitter-shattered people were and still are about him. I guess some people invested significant time trying to convince him he was wrong, which was obviously never going to work, and they never got over it.

Ngl I would take the tripfag epidemic over this unending bullshit we have now with tourists and shitskins from /polint/ fagging everything up. At least the trips were from /k/.

These arent changes I can make desu. The problems I see are thus: That the board is treated too seriously, I can post lightheartedly but it wouldn't effect the rest of the board from being bitter and highly strung. That mil humor is stifled and shat on, all old /k/ humor was basically just repackaged mil humor, which meant a huge helping of gay chicken; and any time you post gay shit people seethe and call you a Russian; and secondarily any time you joke about some aspect of the military some faggot will whine about how you're a foreign asset trying to demoralize him or divide up NATO or some bullshit. And finally that nobody really knows anything, generally I try to be helpful with topics Im familiar with and questions that appear earnest, but Im largely of the view that its pissing into the wind when the attitude of modern /k/ is crabs in a bucket. Example being Oppenheimer, I dont recall exactly what happened at the end but I know there were several attempts to dox him out of spite; but even just people doing their own shit like the dude who scratch-built a Wa2000 got shat on for not being a helpless loser.

I got my first gun two years ago and began to lurk here at that time for scraps of knowledge and advice. Sometimes it occurs to me that I squat amidst the jeet- and bot-infested ruins of something that was once far greater. Feels like I missed the boat on a lot of things. Cheap surps, for one, but also things like meetups. Anyone worth hanging out with has presumably long since gone off to a closed-off discord. It's a lonely time.

I would have no problem logistically hosting a meetup but i'm not sure how i'd vet people, some of the people i've seen here since the war started are sketchy af. Also at least one or two of you would probably try to shoot me.

believe it or not /k/ still has one of the highest ratios of oldfags to newcancer on the website, maybe up there with /tg/. I routinely see ancient reaction images and memes here. now if you think that's unbelievable, just go look on /v/ or /tv/ and see how bad things can really get.

if you didn't find a kommando group to emigrate with by like 2019 you were pretty much hosed. sure, there's still some worthwhile comradery to be had here but it's far, far outweighed by the literal state shills, shrieking shitskins and unhinged political losers that have made this place pretty much unusable over the last half decade

What >>65338901 said. 2019 was kinda the year to find people and groups, and if you didn't catch the last chopper out of 'Nam you were basically screwed. Surprisingly I still find people on FB that point me in the right direction, but these days it's all walled gardens.

To be blunt, you just fucking don't here anymore. It's not worth the risk. /k/ isn't a place for weird weapon autismos go anymore, it's basically yet another gathering ground of third-worlders with smartphones, political operatives, bots and incredibly angry failures that take themselves completely seriously. You do not want to invite that mess into your actual real life.

Because meta organization is an officially banned topic.
The heart and soul of 4chan was community direction and that got killed when the site staff got cold feet post '16 and went scorched earth on things that made '16 possible.

Even threads like this would get the ban hammer within a few hours up until a few years ago.
They don't bother anymore because that culture of self organization is dead and gone.
