Why do you post here, on 4chan?Why do you lurk?What keeps you coming back?
>>85255933I only use this and YouTube everywhere online else online sucks I don't want to be mind controlled
>>85255938That's a decent FPBP you got there anon, well done.
>>85255933I've been posting on 4chan since sophomore year of high school which is like 2007. It's just habit now. I open a fucking web browser and i instantly type in 4chan and end up wasting time on here. I've quit a bunch of times but always end up back. It's funny, all my friends who posted on here and got me into 4chan back in the day despise it now which i get because it's pretty shit these days. I just come back because it's like an addiction, not even really enjoyable.
>>85255933my obsession with am r9k fembot who played a video game with me once then ghosted me
been coming back and leaving for years now. i miss when the internet wasn't run by normies and the time before algorithms. this is one of the only refuges for someone like me.
>>85255988Checked and sorry anon! Femanons are brutal.
>>85255933Been posting here since 2009, don't know why I started or why I'm still doing it.I didn't go here at all during 2024 and 2025 but just came back earlier this year for some reason.
>>85255933I don't have to login anywhere to postand I can call people out for being faggots without the basedpolice having a melty
>>85256017>I don't have to login anywhere to postthis
>>85256068I remember when it was easy as fuck to make g**gle accounts for signing up for thingsnow it's all like>WAAAAH AWAAH PLEASE PUT YOUR PHONE NUMBER1-800-NIG-GERS>WAAAAAAA PLEASE ALSO PUT A BACKUP EMAILNIGGER@NIGMAIL.NIG>ALSO PLEASE VERIFY YOUR IDENTIYNIGGER!>AND NOW PLEASE SUBMIT A SEMEN SAMPLEDOUBLE NIGGER!!>SORRY WE COULD NOT CONFIRM YOUR IDENTITYTRIPLE NIGGER!!!
>>85256017>>85256068>>85256092Yeah I came back after not being able to get on due to range bans... Weird because I travel and get them on my phone, but never on my PC... but I've been range banned for 2 months. Got bored and decided to finally give them my email which I just didn't want to do..Oh well... gotta shitpost and now they know my shitpost email account.
>>85255933>old habits are hard to break>I can be mean to idiots without getting "downvoted">I just like to post stupid fucked up pictures sometimes
>>85256228Yeah the freedom is what's nice.
>>85255933> be me> go to reddit, r/NoStupidQuestions> ask stupid question> get downvoted into oblivion> leave and never come back
Passing time at work. Also lurking for tits and girls posting.
>>85256647i'm so sorry anon they're not real girls don't exist
>>85255933Normie internet is just a tad bit more annoying and fake than even this larpy ass place. At least people don't constantly pretend to be "good" around here, they happen to be more open and authentic about what hides within their rotten selfes. I am permabanned on most social media anyway. Not because I am overly edgy, just because I curse like a fucking sailor. I never let them police my speech and adopt their pussified behavior patterns.That has been a problem on any site aside from this one here.
>>85255933>Why do you post here, on 4chan?I like the anonymity. I also like the generally lower censorship. The culture is shit but manages to be better than most other places.>Why do you lurk?Get bored at work, mostly.>What keeps you coming back?Iuhno. I just kinda do. You're here forever
>>85255933I altered reality with a meme and I got addicted
>>85255933Because I want to socialize 24/7 but there are periods of silence in my life that I have to fill occasionally
other communities do not understand me so i come here to attentionwhore and fill my eternal need for love from everyone on the internet. other sites are filled with normies who just act superior to me because they're not autistic and the bitches aren't histrionic and i'm tired of this bullshit. 4chan gets me though desu
>>85255933I like posting about my interests with other anons. There's always a fun thread about some niche director on /tv/ or I can just make my own one. I also love posting in Final Fantasy discussion threads on /v/ and then there's a bunch more but the point I am making is that I can talk to literally ANYONE about literally ANY niche interests and it doesn't have to be "nerdy" per se. My main thing is music but I never post on /mu/ because there's too much attentionwhoring women on there imo and the board culture is complete garbage. Also if a mod is reading this why are the French e variants like e with a / or e with a \ not allowed? It seems so unnecessary.
>>85256780You sound like a cool guy. I've had similar problems with having normal opinions and what have you, but the way I might phrase something or express myself might tick off a lot of people. Anon you should always do you and not what is expected of you!!! It's so fucking weird too how EVERYONE talks the same and uses the same sterile zoomer lingo now. So gay and lame tbhdesu
>>85257129>normies who just act superior to me because they're not autisticEw ur actually autistic
>Why do you post here, on 4chan?Why do you lurk?Habit mostly, lots of time to kill at work. I find something interesting from time to time and sometimes I connect with like minded people, which is something I hardly ever do irl.>What keeps you coming back?Again, habit, and the fact that I spend a lot of time in front of the computer.I do browse a lot less than 20 years ago and I think that most boards I liked are shit now, including this one.
honestly? i hate this place. i don't even relate to most anons, i find them repulsive and annoying. but i am very lonely and too afraid to talk to real people, so this is my outlet. mostly i'm just addicted, and i also feel like i've gotta scroll the catalog twice a day to see anything my ex has posted.
>>85255933im just looking at what people say about me
I've been kicked out from all IRL communities (school, work, university, church, family). This is the only place I've got to talk to people. I do not enjoy it here. But I've got no other choice.
>>852559334chan still has a certain charm to it. It is still a honey pot fed glowie operation and people post their bullshit here but it still has a charm to it. Relatively anonymous and habit. You can shitpost and seldom will it actually mean anything. I started coming here when I was underage and I never stopped
>>85255933the illusion that this might be the place where i might find some kindred spiritsin reality it's full of LARPers and foids. Idk why i stay here
>>85257876Because you are a larper as well. You are a dumb fuck just like half the board.
>>85257943I may be stupid, but I'm no larper
Bored as shit and I don't get much interaction using regular socials because I don't post myself
Anonymous shitposting is the one remaining pressure valve in this niggerhell society
>>85257953There goes the larping. Yeah, I know what you are. You aint fooling me, twink.
>>85258013please explain to me how am i larping
>>85258115Larping like you're not equally as rarded as the average 4channer. I have you in my sights, in my crosshairs, I have you pinned down and spotted. Fag. I bet you kiss girls on the lips
>>85257961>>85258012These make me feel feels... it's weird how there are no ongoing chats/forums to really socialize with anymore.. it's just normies being glued together by advertisements.
>>85258229>I bet you kiss girls on the lipsnot a single foid has kissed me. They hate mei'm a truecel through and through
>>85255933>random shit usually, but sometimes consistent enough to be 'recognized'>it's free content>I'm a loner in real life
>>85258312Also trvcel here, a girl did love me and I broke her heart.
>>85258276Speaking of chats/forums. Anyone tried that 4megle thing I've seen advertised here? Is it decent
>>85255933Is /r9k/ where all the oldfags end up? The 2016-2021fags either went back to where they came from or they are on twitter.
>>85258369lots of people went to twitter
>>85258369There's a lot of older people on the normie blue boards for "normal" interests. So no cosplay/pokemon etc...
>>85255933old habits die hard, plus it's my only outlet for socializing with no actual digital footprint outside of desuarchive (to my knowledge).
>>85258369>>85258378xitter is so fucking cucked you can't even see a uncovered nipple without sending a picture of your butthole to elon,why the fuck would they go there i don't get it.
>>85258399You can easily get a lot of free porn on Twitter. It's where I go, in fact.
I haven't browsed here in 10 years since yesterday. I thought I'd escaped but i guess you can never really leave this place
>>85258643You're here forever, fren. Forever and ever and ever... Mr Bones Wild Ride Never Ends.
>>85258347>girl did love me and I broke her heart.fuck off larper
I don't know. Half the shit posted here I cannot relate to anymore. Only reason I come here now is for the NEET threads, and they're few and far between.
>>85258842Love the neet stuff. Hate all the incel stuff
>>85258842Honestly I would just start posting on hobby boards if I were you. Doesn't matter if it's /v/ or /ck/ or /sp/ or whatever, the threads always derail in to casual conversation and there's much less attentionwhoring and incel whining desu yo ne
>>85255933I haven't posted here on Arcanine in years but i'm banned from my usual haunt right now(have you noticed the jannies and one mod active have weird priorities and ban you for the silliest shit?)What keeps me coming back?I'm autistic. A creature of habit.
>>85255933It's a place online to waste time that is also suited to my current needs since it's anonymous and also a medium that makes it difficult to deliver strong semantic-semiotic stimuli
Finding a black nona and thats it tbdesu... i rarely touch hobby boards anymore
>>85258900Checked, you could stick around for a while and help clean up the place, make good effort posts, share fun memes, etc etc..It's good to be back somewhere... You miss us more than you realize.
>>85258900Heh lucky you anon. When I get banned it's always a 3 day site wide ban. I haven't been banned in months now because I avoid the boards that have a lot of womanon moderators. Stupid women, always banning you for no reason even if you didn't actually break any rules. God I hate women so much! Also does anyone know why I have to enter a captcha for every post now? Is it an r/9k/ thing? On other boards if I get enough replies I stop getting captchas after a while.
>>85255933because this is still the ffunniest place on the internet. the laughs are less common now but you will occasionally see a thread or a post here that just makes you laugh with your gut
>>85258917>... i rarely touch hobby boards anymoreThey are too slow and they need to learn to just chill the fuck out and make positive, helpful, fun posts about their hobbies like 4chan used to be. This place used to be a nexus hub for hobbies of all kinds, very inviting too. Now it's dead and there is so much gatekeeping, fighting, trolling, etc instead of fun and helpful posts.
>>85258947It is, a little. I don't notice as many sexhavers as there were.
>>85258871Agreed. If I recall, when /r9k/ was made it tried to be a gentleman's version of /b/. Somewhere along the line, the way was lost and now it's all muh dick, muh incels, muh inability to get laid. When you've been NEET for as long as I have, there's far bigger things to worry about than that.>>85258894Very much true. I really do need to take up a hobby. Sitting on the corner of a couch all day isn't good for the health, and I'm at the age where I really do need to start taking care of my health.
>>85258953Too many tribefags, jannies and moderation in general has deteriorated, too many crabs in bucket and not enough oc which is what made this site good. Dunno they're just not as fun to use anymore. When trolls happen people let it happen and their threads die, no fighting back. Makes me sad but it is what it is. I want to leave too but i dunno a part of me still thinks this site could do good if it really wanted to
>>85258957> I don't notice as many sexhavers as there were.And that's a good thing! Too many LARPers and trolls.
>>85258966I'm an older internal NEET too and I don't even do my creative hobbies anymore. I just post here all the time, it's an addiction I hope I can break out of soon enough. My time would be better spent playing fucking video games ALL day at this point.
>>85258975>but i dunno a part of me still thinks this site could do good if it really wanted toYeah this site and has changed the world and probably saved and ruined millions of lives in direct and indirect way.This is a hidden and chained power and we're just like rotting away on it and the mods sort of sabotage it.
>>85255933this is where i will eventually meet the pure virgin woman who i will spend the rest of my life with, i must keep posting until that happens.
>>85258995I'm hoping to get a decent graphics tablet so I can at least get back into drawing, but yeah I get what you mean. It's as if we've hit the wall, and even doing menial tasks feels like a massive effort. And yet, somehow despite not being able to engage in hobbies or interests we still shitpost here.
>>85258966try doing cardio while listening to a podcast or something. that's what I do, I'll just put something on and do like jumping jacks and run in place for 45 minutes. Really makes a difference.
>>85259069Good advice, thanks. I was doing around 20-30 pull ups a day at one point, dunno if I can still do it or not but muscle memory exists. I just really need to get the hell off my ass and start doing things I like, my life's already rat shit as a NEET anyway but it doesn't mean I can't do things I enjoy.
>>85259115nta but it depends on how long it's been but the good news is once you've built muscle you can rebuild it in half the time
>>85259115Bruh I've been NEETing since high school and in my 30's now. I'm still in pretty much perfect shape because I don't have a car so I have to walk/skate most places and I try to keep active. Cardio seems kind of lame and it won't make you muscular but I can tell you, dudes my age that drive everywhere and sit on their ass all day doing white collar jobs are getting things like rheumatism and back pain. And so far I'm still spared and I think it's mostly minding my diet and staying active.
>>85255933i'm about ready to quit the normal webpage is all fucked for me right now
>>85259920Having issues with captcha or anything like that?
>>85255933I still think it's better than anywhere else. I don't like normie social media, i relate to anons here, I like the anonymous nature and shitposts and the rare insighful posts. There's always something to see here.Idk where else to go, I guess I'm kinda addicted but I don't want to quit, you're here forever after all.
>>85259940I feel you, Substack is the only other place that feels like people, real people, write good content and connect. A lot of anons on there.
>>85255933Believe it or not people outside of here are orders of magnitude more disgusting on the inside. The average 4channer is gross on the outside, but the average normalfag is an animal at best.
>>85260210How do you know that if it's on the inside
>>85260210Yeah and normies are disgusting in their habits, like fast food bags everywhere, not cleaning up cat turds, not cleaning their booze bottles and cigarette butts up..Filthy ningen normies.
>>85255933>Why do you post here, on 4chan?>Why do you lurk?>What keeps you coming back?other sites are ass in comparison
