Why does discord have quests where you can earn "orbs" that you can use in the store?
Why does it have any of that crap?
Wasn't it supposed to be a discussion platform where I write messages to my friends?
It's not a video game.

hello, real oldfag.

2000s anime internet "^__^~" shit was pretty cringy, but in my old age (30s) i'm glad the less-cynical teenagers had fun with it all.

but as a gimmick for profit, it's all just picrel. it bothers me because Discord as a chat platform has replaced IRC. how in the flying fuck did the open-source nerds let that happen?
>>
>>83268228
it's that the internet is big now, and phone fags were never open source fags. One of my favorite game dev studios that died has 1 employee locking down the irc 24/7 still.

>none of the orbs even earn you enough to buy anything on the store
It's a smart marketing tactic. I know a lot of people with nitro that fell for it. When I found out my bf had nitro I got grossed out and told him to fucking cancel it and he did

Why doesn't it work on my brain? My whole life I've watched my friends get addicted to World of Warcraft and other grinding games, gatchas etc.
I just dont get it
I can instantly tell when some accomplishment is fake / simulated and when it's something real

>YOU STUPID FUCK, NOBODY IS USING UR SHITTTY DISCORD CLONE AND THATS WHY I DONT GIVE A SHIT

Why is a database entry on another website worth money but worthless on another?
Because people use it?
I dont get it man. I don't like people and I especially dont want to be among normiecattle.
Small communities are better than some weird hivemind. I dunno why people always wanna go where everyone else is too.
