When did you come to 4chan?2014 for me.
>>772476472010, my friend introduced me to it. He just wanted to show me funny things, that's all
>>77247647first went on the site in 2019, started browsing it often in 2022
2006, learned about it from the newgrounds forums, came here and never went back.
2013. Was teenager very lonely fat fembot. I remember when /r9k/ had those selfie threads and guys told me to lose weight and that my body looked like a dudes.This site is good for helping people self esteem.
>>77247647I just discovered 4chan last week
2011 Used to go on FunnyJunk and /b/ to get my laughs
tiktok in 2020 :3I love 4chan discord servrs hehe
>>772476472011/2012 when the wall street protests flooded main stream media. i was in 8th grade and started with browsing /b/.
>>77247647January of 2009, I've been on 4chan for most my life. You can say 4chan gave birth to me even
>>77247842m00t pushed you out his pp hole
Either around 2005 or 2006. Learned of it through Gaia online.
>>77247784Holy shit I forgot about "occupy wallstreet" I was too young to follow/care at the time, I wonder why it never happened again.
>>77247647Oldfag here. I joined last year and can't wait for accounts to be introduced. I find blocking people and karma to be handy utilities.
>>77247882>2012 occupy>2016 meme war>2020 george floyd riots>2024 anti israel protestsit happens every 4 years, like something else.
>>772476472006 or 2007, can't remember. Friend asked if I was a /b/tard and eventually he sent me a link.
2005 or 6 since I was 5 or 6 years oldGoing to /b/ used to be all I would do after school and before school and I've been here ever since
>>77247890Fellow oldfag here. Absolutely agreed. It's so helpful to be able to go through one's posting history. That way we'll never have newfags.
>>77247919>since I was 5 or 6 years oldYou've been using this website since you were 5 years old? I do not believe this
>>772476472008, /b/ was getting popular in high school with the WoW players. as of last year i have spent most my life here.
>>77247647About 2012/2013. First heard about it through horse show fandom and that the fandom basically originated from here. It got me curious so I started browsing /mlh/ and /co/. Eventually, I made my way to /r9k/. My life has gone downhill since. One of the many reasons why I hate that fandom now.
>>77247749you had me for a second there
autumn 2008also im 31yo
>>772476472014, too. Or there about. I think I visited it briefly in 2010 or so, but I wasn't very interested until later.
>>772476472008. At the time I felt I finally found home.
2010? I don't remember. I'm in time beyond time. Should have killed myself back then.
>>772476472016 epic troller here been here everyday since just lurkin n fappin
2004, I was 15. I was there for Habbo Hotel, Battletoads and Hal Turner. I was splitting my time between Something Awful, YTMND and here before I realized pretty much all the best stuff was just being reposted elsewhere from 4chan.
>>77247919Are you just completely deranged by now? Holy fuck /b/ at 6 years old.I knew about 4chan after Lowtax banned anime from the SA forums but I wasn't thrilled by it initially. Ignored it while I played WoW.Then in 2005 or 2006 /f/ got really good. People would upload HentaiKey animations for free. Lots of memes.I started browsing other boards like /v/ and been around ever since.
>>77247647poked around from 2018. started spending a lot of time here and on altchans in 2023. but i lurked tranny communities that seemed to have a lot of 4chan oldfags in them as a confused kid, so i came in with much of the culture already absorbed.
>>772476472001 after 9/11. Fuck that guy Heaven.
>>77247647Whatever happened to moot? I know wt snacks is a DJ now
>>77250800He's a princess imprisoned at the top of a tower in Google HQ.
occasional visits starting from 2007, and only really started coming often in 2011 when i was a degenerate kid and my first bf showed me /b/.
>>77247647An online friend of showed me Dolan when I was an early teenager, then introduced me to 4chan
>>772476472015-17 sometime around there was when I first visited but started coming reguarly in 2018
>>77247647moot and snacks my beloved>>77250800he's a DJ?
>>77250800canv.as fizzled out, worked at google, worked on google maps (google+ ?) in Japan for a while until he was divested then disappeared. He obviously wants to be far away from here. I mean be didn't have much of a personal life here, they were even doxxing his mom.Apparently he ran an internal imageboard at google for shitposting.
>>77247647twenty twenty-one
>>772476472006 for the first time but I didn't start using it regularly until a bit afterwards
>>77247647Late 2012 I started on /b/ through edgy Facebook comedy pages like Cell. Then on the back of the brony craze (ironically at first) I started using /mlp/ 'till I became I fully fledged horsefucker and that was my first proper home board.
2006 or 7. Came here from the Prowrestling boards of GameFAQS.
>>772476472020 oldfag herethe ride really never ends does it lads
>>772476472007been away from here awhile because its all so tiresome
>>772479062007 as well. someone asked me on some forum if i was a /b/tard as well
>>772476472010. around the time of jessi slaughter
>>772476472022. Complete newfag here. Eternal summer or something like that
2012 for me through /b/ and /h/ then eventually /int/
>>772476472014 just before the Reddit invasion
Definitely before 2013 but my earliest 4chan memory is seeing a boston bombing victim's leg cut off on /b/
I don't really remember, it was a very long time ago and I was never the type to care about how much of an oldfag I am.I was young and I found it via Madness Combat forums and ED.
>>772476472005One of my online friends kept linking pics from /b/ to react to my commentsSo I lurked there for a few months until I found /v/
>>77247647I think I came in 2009 after the peak of Chanology, I lurked for months before making my first post, I was a newfag, and to some extent I still feel like one.
>>77247647>Be honest2018. I was thirteen.
>>77247940>Don't believe itMy kindergarten assigned us "buddys" from 8th grade or something to socialize us I guessFrom what I remember either my buddy or his best friend gave me a paper with 4chan.org/b written on it and told me to come hereI still wonder sometimes if he still browses 4chan or not>>77250660>Are you just completely deranged by now?Yeah I guess soI am a hikkineet and my life is basically ruined I wouldn't say it's ruined because of 4chan though if anything 4chan is why I haven't ropedI'll never forget one of the first threads I ever saw maybe the top thread when I first looked was gore and I panicked and left for months before coming back permanently It's neat to see another /f/ browserI still use /f/ to this day not only do you still see recently made or atleast recently updated things once in a while but the reposts are fairly high quality still
summer 2008, friend's older brother showed us /b/
>>772476472006. Doomers hadn't taken over yet, memes were just funny pictures, and irony was actually pretty rare at the time.
>>77253083underage b& gtfo-
>>77247647around 2016, but i mostly lurked until about 2018.i didn't come because of the election, for the record.
>>77255518you can't count
>>77247647I don't remember. But I think people were talking a lot about Boxxy in those days.
Im since 2016 and i dont survive the Tranny propaganda well, and yes i will kill me dont worry, im on it
>>77247748Post tits plz Whatever year the trayvon martin trial was for me
>>772476472015, unironically this place saved my life. I was way too fucking lonely before. Now I can just insult retards here all day every day.
I am genuinely concerned about this site dying. They removed the IP counter and now /b/ is slow as fuck. It used to be so much faster in 2015 if this place dies I dunno what I'm gonna do.
My first girlfriend showed me this place in 2005. I didnt really like anime at the time so I didnt get fully /b/tarded right away, but pretty quickly I found myself coming here instead of myspace to hang out and the rest is history.
>>77247903>2008 scientology crusadeholy shit youre right
2009. It feels like the average IQ of the website in general is far FAR lower than it used to be. Or maybe I was just a dumb kid and didn't realize how stupid everyone here always was
>>77247871wtf. I thought we bullied all the gaiafags off this site circa 2008
I came here in '08, and I still consider myself a newfagHandy guide:Newfag = '07 onwardsOldfag = '05, '06Originalfag = '04Primevalfag = never got their $10 back
I discovered the site in 08 or 09, through some friends in gmod. but I didn't really start browsing until a few years after that
2016 am newfag and will always be a newfag
I knew about 4chan since its inception, but only started regularly browsing and posting in 2009.
>>772476472020 because i wasnt chronically online back then until lockdown became a thing
2007. I was a junior in high school. Became friends with a guy over a shared interest in anime/manga and he introduced me to the site
>>77247647like 2017 because i either heard it from some groomer or youtubemy first board was /b/ i was 12
>>77247647>When did you come to 4chan?2010
>>77247647First visit was 2012
>>772476472007. Coming up on 20 years. Jesus... I hadn't really thought about it until now.
>>77247890You senile old shart (SOS) oldfag means you joined early in the lifespan of 4chan, not that youre actually old.>I find blocking people and karma to be handy utilities Obligatory you should go back
>>77247647Like just this week
>>772476472011, I was a freshman in high school. Turns out the only reddit posts I liked turned out to be 4chan reposts. I was an autistic loser without any prospects for friends, I 100% thank 4chan for helping me get friends by retelling jokes I found on here to make people laugh.
>>772577482016 eternal newfag here too. Friend showed me the site one day and /r9k/ caught my attention. Went home and looked it up myself and found a lot of posts that resonated with me at the time. My fate was sealed
i saw a femboy yt vid
>>77259616it says when dumbass
>>77247647For me, it came from a string of viral videos from Dillon the Hacker circa 2013-2014, which was how I was introduced to /b/. He was a genuinely entertaining guy, it's a shame what happened to him
