/wsg/ 2016-2018.Were you here? How are you doing now anon? I haven't been on this board much since 2019. Life got better. Busier. But a lot of great content was created (before GenAI) 10 years ago. Found a folder full of vibes. I remember when bonbibonkers took off and how big of a shift that was. Tiktokifcation. Brain rot. 1-2 second mashed together clips. Hyper-emotional.But dont listen to me, Im just an old man thrusting his stick up into the clouds.Enjoy

>>6005387I would still go back. The only part I would truly miss is google maps on my phone and Wikipedia. Fucking loved me some neopets and meta bots.
>>6005463ah yes the eternal epic Daigo parry>>6007286only last month did I start exploring usenet can you fucking believe that

Great thread, op. Thank you
>>6005467real classic, I still remember when wsg was interesting thread after interesting thread.
>>6007311I was thinking of this webm the other day. Not sure if I want save it :(
>>6007324> Salute.mpeg>>6007419One moar
Some anon made this and posted it on /wsg/ a long time ago.
today, OP wasn't a faggot
>>6004177I first visited /wsg/ when fligu and tiktokification started to hit this site. I've been lurking mostly since and saving vids.
>>6008973THEN REPOST
>>6004643we all miss him
>>6004341the dud
>>6004301Sauce on song
>>6004177Does this count (around 2005, I think)?
>>6005384would've been cool to experience classic 4chan. feels like 4chan kinda stopped having a culture after around the mid-late 2010ssuch a different time
>>6005384like if you said half the shit these guys said at a modern anime con youd be harassed by fat women because otaku culture is now mainstream normie slop and they cant understand a little fun n games
>>6010756i dont think this is 2005, this is like a mid-late 2010s video
>>6011484> On my way to Brooklyn> start fidgeting with the buckles on my bass clarinet case> sense everyone stop moving around me> chance a peek> stealth.iso> asian woman is looking at me from the corner of her eye> prospect park mom is grasping her child> two white dudes are ready to pounce> look up and calmly explain"Once you go black, you cant go back"
>>6004179why did you save that and store that for almost 10 years?

Been here since /wsg/ was first added, not necessarily as a regular but I'd peek my head in every few months or so.Sad to say but like most boards the glory days are behind us. You used to be able to come here and find videos that were funny or interesting or get good music recommendations.Now you really need to dig through a mountain of shit to find those diamonds. Looking at the current catalog it's just political shit, coomer shit that shouldn't be on a nsfw board if the mods gave a fuck, threads where it's just OP dumping webms until the threads archived after which they'll do the exact same thing, threads that could be cool but get ruined by people posting garbage probably deliberately and finally a small handful of genuinely good threads which will die with under 50 posts.Another example of the decline would be ylyl threads. I haven't visited one for a long time because at some point someone decided they would ruin every ylyl thread by filling the thread with unfunny quasi-brainrot videos. When I say every thread I mean EVERY thread and this went on for years. I'd say it was a bot because they were so relentless but it could have just as easily been some outside group conducting the longest raid I've ever seen. If it was only one dedicated autist then I'm not even mad because his life must have literally been waking up, obsessing over those threads all day then sleeping for four hours before repeating the cycle for 5+ years. It might even be going on to this day but I'm not wading in that pool of piss just to find out.Anyway enough about how things were better back in the day, here's a good song introduced to me by /wsg/.I can't be bothered downloading and converting to webm so I'll just link the video. https://youtu.be/js7JVXBH_tQwall of text I know sry, sometimes you just gotta release the inner sperg
>>6012643No you're really right here to be honest, I've seen the decline as well but I think that's just the internet in general. Not as free and wild as it used to be, which is really saddening. Feels like everything has lost its soul and everything is being made purely for profit
>>6012666It's because hook noses bought up the internet.They forced a tik tok sale so they could censor the Gaza genocide, just like they censor their genocide of the west
>>6012643You're half right, but also you just got older anon, and this site's audience didn't age with you. They moved on. Only reason Im here is for a bit of nostalgia. I think the simple image/vid + text format of 4chan is amazing and I wish more sites adopted it. It's a great way to share pretty anything you want on the internet.
>>6012630i made the Kira one last week from jewtoob>>6012643>at some point someone decided they would ruin every ylyl thread by filling the thread with unfunny quasi-brainrot videos. When I say every thread I mean EVERY thread and this went on for yearsyeah i noticed that systematic cringe spam in ylyl threads toothe JIDF website had an explicit policy of shitting up all spaces that were judged "problematic" which i guess includes this one too>If it was only one dedicated autistnope, entire teams are dedicated to shit up this place and they make up a sizeable part of jannies
bump!
Any one got the gif or webm with the ghost cat and the text that says you are dead/have died, continue/try again? (continue, yes, no) It might of had music by capsule or might have been 8 bitFor the life of me can't find it and had a look through the archives :(
>>6004177Yes. I was there. 2013 for me and I'm still a newfag. I thought I came in at the end. How wrong I was.
There was a music vid featuring a monk setting themselves on fire can't find it anyone has it?
>>6010783Nailed it. Mid 2010s.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKR4FAg1imc
>>6006206this was probably meant for >>6005514
>>6015098both commanders knew each other because they had previously served together (in georgia i think?)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Grozny_(1994%E2%80%931995)#Central_Railway_StationAlik was an executioner i don't know how he could've refused the orders without being tried for desertionit seems the higher-ups sent many soldiers as cannon fodder as when they sprang the various ambushes waiting for them none of their calls for help or reinforcements were answeredthat battle was a dark fucking bloodbath
>>6015135I'm aware of the story behind this conversation (I was looking into it just now), but I was referring to his tone, not his words. Of course he couldn't refuse the order.But as a native speaker he struck me as an overconfident fool rather than someone who wanted to avoid conflict.
>>6004177>Tiktokifcation. Brain rot. 1-2 second mashed together clips. Hyper-emotional.>But dont listen to me, Im just an old man thrusting his stick up into the clouds.I started browsing during Tiktokfication and I hated those threads. The SFW pron threads have gotten worse since then.But the absolute worst part of current /wsg/ is the fact that our Halloween thread is so inactive. The most important day of October is a day away and the sp00ky thread has only 100 posts.
>>6004177
>>6015372:(
>>6013421
>>6006364That's how I live usually. I started taking care of myself though because I realized I'm great and most people are just mean spirited and thrive on grouping up to bully people that aren't like them.
>>6015229tsmt>>6012643yeahi've scraped several music threads, but there's barely anything worthwhile left herefeels like a normie waiting room of some kind, mixed with psyop garbagegood to hear from people who feel the same atleast, and i appreciate your post anonhappy halloween eve, everyone
>>6012643It's a shift I saw leak all over. It started on Myspace with the profile wipes. There was sooooo much evidence of criminal activity on there it's not even funny, and they just removed it all. Then instagram switched to whatever it is supposed to be now. Advertising app? I dunno. Facebook was always faggoty. Meme sites were the ones I saw start going after. Mods would just outright censor you for stating facts. Hit you with bans etc. That's when I realized what was happening. The sites started selling shit through 3rd parties like shirts etc. Personal info grab. Creating weird "communities" where mods would post real life pictures encouraging others to without warning them about exif info. Dox origins. They did a bunch of test runs on the most linked websites on their platform before eliminating them in favor of reddit where opinion can be controlled. This website is now being roped in under the same roof. Worksafe Generals is a shit board. Seen 20 unique reply threads deleted after 5 minutes of no reply and threads with no reply in 4+ hours stay up. It's time to take your beliefs outside.
>>6004186Bonbiposting isn't THAT old, right?? Right....
>>6015755It probably depends on your music taste. I listen to obscure electronic music and there is still some good stuff here every now and then.
>>6004235Damn, this one's a classic.
this thread reminds me of how bad /wsg/ has gotten
>>6015946that is fair>>6016110could always be worsei think the most fallen board by far is /b/, but idk
>>6004308N-no one remembers :(
>>6015507Neat, thanks for posting the full one
>>6012554We're genuinely hitting the point of people taking youtube compilations of "4chan webm collection" and converting them back into webms
>>6005444The webm? Open the video editor, throw png into video track, throw two songs into two audio tracks, have them both switch channels at the same cadence, nothing to it.
>>6005381sauce?
>>6018028
>>6014591This one anon?
>>6015405Ancient coub rip before they plastered watermarks on everything, classic.
>>6018080Whelp, that's scary. I found this gif of stars in our galaxy orbiting the Milky Way's black hole. It's like they're just play things...
>>6018228have fun my friend https://fusro.ga/9838
>>6012643>>6013348if you'll indulge in my necroposting, i agree with the latter anon. same thing happened in /gif/, sure there was always gore and degenerate porn spam, but interspersed were good ygyl, ylyl, gondola, and non-gore rekt threads among some other wierd/intresting niche stuff. ill also add that the people there were more human-presenting, too, autism notwithstanding. people would find or post an interesting webm and mention an anecdote or story or exspurgation they thought relevant, and among the (You)s you'd find a genuine question, a similar remark, a shitpost, ragebait, and inevitably a back and forth interaction. contrast this with the 3 spontaneous ragebait and hyper-aggressive comments that serve basically as downvotes when someone tries to engage now. this coupled with the leaks and discord jannies proves to me that this site is GIGAcompromised, or at least held hostage by people who hate it, and nostalgia cages those who remain. that said, I'm not doomposting, there's still good stuff here if you know where to look, but with how scarce that stuff's getting, looking for worthwhile shit can get you in a gambling loop. try to keep your heads frens, i hope you all had a good halloween.
>>6018228>>6018553Thank you brothers <3
>>6018379heh, this looks like it was recorded with a microscope
>>6018579>there's still good stuff here if you know where to looki'm mostly on altchans now desu
>>6018696Wots that?Only 3 more gif slots. Make them count, or dont post em to keep the thread alive longer
>>6018553)_) suspicious looking link{0}_{0} is actually not suspiciousNeat sight (it's just a bunch of Ruffle -> old flash vids)
>>6013411>jerkkek
Anybody have the music video for that song Freestyler by Bomfunk Mc's? I lost it a long time ago and never see anybody post it anymore

>>6007673i like this one nonetheless, but i despise news editing like you wouldn't believe.
>>6004177Nostalgic times, in some ways better. Time is moving way too fast.Ah, image limit - was going to be an old 2018 webm of a girl eating berries to moonlight sonata.
>>6004308>>6016684grandpa, go to bed
>>6007419oh yeah when we reposted the same 275 .webm's every thread right
>>6012643>all this shit>didn't include a webmfake and gay
The thread's now sinking boys. Just want to say I miss the old times, but there's no turning back. Time only moves forward. One day (in 3-4 generations), all of us will disappear from history. Our long, drawn out lives will be forgotten and forever lost. Make peace with the present and find some people to enjoy it with, that's all there is. The present is the only thing you can give someone else, regardless of how its packaged.
>>6005374They weren't ahead of the time. All that stuff was going on in 1993.
>>60187342012>>6018748no u-hnnnnnggg>>6018754If you were in a Dodger Leah thread, probably>>6018772How old are you?
>>6018553>>6018711https://z0r.de/ was the one i was familiar with, cool thanks anon.
>>6018710not him, but altchans are just other 4chan-like sites. Note that most of them are either dead or much slower than 4chan.

>>6004177the feels are fuckin insane, thank you
I've been looking for a webm that starts with like an 8bit but high quality animation of a cd going into a cd player, and includes some furry/realistic anime masks. It felt like all the hyper schizo shit before it was cool. Wondering if anyone held on to it.
>>6013428I forgot how amazing these "super deluxe" debate videos were. That fucking air horn.
>>6005390What's this from? Source?
this is a great thread and it hit image limit before i could contribute my webms, so here's a new one >>6019802>>6019802>>6019802
>>6004186>R.I.P old Bonbi
>>6019345:thumbs_up:>>6019580Anyno?
Does somebody happen to have a music video webm about russo-ukraine war with femail vocalist.I only remember small part of the lyrics "if i have a spark".In the video was a crying babuska and war material
>>6021827image bump limit reached, but your comment kinda reminds of a similar webm i saw a while ago. it was about some slavic bullshit war and had a grunge (?) female singer mentioning something about crows? kino yet i never saved it for some reason, catbox pls

>>6012643>Another example of the decline would be ylyl threads. I haven't visited one for a long time because at some point someone decided they would ruin every ylyl thread by filling the thread with unfunny quasi-brainrot videos.ylyl use to belong on /gif/ until a janny decided /ylyl/ was for /wsg/ and started banning people who contributed on /gif/. this was revealed during the 4chin hack/leak. so basically, the jannies are the reason wsg is shit.\another issue is that, much like the linux open source community, theres no real reason to release content for free anymore. if you are a funny person, talented, and know wha t you are doing its much better to just cultivate a smaller community on a different platform and get paid for it. Otherwise some thirdie is just going to steal your content and repost it as their own on their own channels.theres so many successful fuckks that made their start just stealing content from sites like 4chan. sometimes i just make stuff up to see if certain content grifters are reading and sure enough, they will repeat my nonnsense as if it was their own original thought.
>>6004186Man, I miss this sort of song.
>>6026458>jannies are the reason wsg is shitjannies are the reason this site feels like a metropolitan shithole, particularly the metropolitan part (you saw the leaks so there's no surprise there). it's insane how they'll bbc spam the gif catalogue if a single interesting thread appears for one second to this very day. /gif/ is only good for raiding now>there's no real reason to release content for free anymore... some thirdie is just going to steal your contentim gonna snorkel with a diving bell and snip those fucking cables mang. shoulda kept it for westerners only
