but it was used on Sup Forums around then

I remember because I thought it was pronounced me-me

There was actually more shitposting in 2007-8. It's just that it's hard to remember shitposting.

>me-me
>not may-may

Fag

So what I'm getting from this thread is that Sup Forums was fun back then.

Being an eternal newfag is suffering.

Do you have any pics of Project ENIS? I've been through like 10 hard drive crashes and I've never ever backed up my images

...

>[rs]
;_;

Yeah just a few

...

...

This is all that survived

I can tell you this.

Most people from back then are not here anymore.

And most people here were not there back then.

I'm curious about the average age of Sup Forums and see if it has slowly increased as time goes on like the EVE Online community. I know Sup Forums has probably stayed the same or gotten younger, but we're more insular.

Excluding generals of course because those are filled with underaged redditor newfags.

...

I was here and I don't even remember. Get lost dweeb

People forgot how to take it easy.

There was no Keit-Ai, no spamming and no Sup Forums either. Just anime threads as far as the eye could see.

>moot
who?

The lamest pervert on Sup Forums back in the day

...

>no spamming

Sure newfriend, whatever you say desu~

>JIBUN WO
>Gurren lagann vs Lucky Star
>Haruhi
>Lot's of /vn/'s
>Spambots
>Naruto was bannable

No one miss the pasta spamming.

Sup Forums is filled with underage little girls.

Cancerous tripfags is one thing that have disappeared. When was it again that everyone on Sup Forums was Lanced Jack or Taiga?

2009 or so

god I forgot completely about them. thanks a lot user

Come to think of it I haven't read Lelouch in ages.
Quite pleasant.

Isn't that because you filtered him?

>tfw filtered someone years ago and the thing still works

I dont even know what happened, I'm just getting some random hidden user now.

Most people are attracted to other people their own age. Considering Sup Forums's loli aficionado community, a lot of people here may be underage.

Nah we're just degenerates.

I actually doubt most lolifags are underage, since teens are usually attracted to bigger tits.

You're in luck then, I still see him and his shit taste almost every day but I can't bring myself to filter him, I mean it's been so long.

What was the first time he demonstrated his shit taste?

How am I supposed to remember that, really.

Well, the most memorable then.

Is there anything Ed can't do?

I don't know, can't really think of any good example right now, I'm not really trying to memorize every single one of his shitposts, so maybe when he called Chisato worst girl? That was beyond my comprehension.

I came here around 2008, so I missed.

are you expecting me to reply with "bring back his mother"?

If you weren't here in 2007, you should just leave.

>Pretending to be an oldfag
You aren't fooling anyone son.

2007 Sup Forums was a lot better. You'll find that, without fail, people in meta and nostalgia threads are quick to say "Sup Forums was always shit" but it was a more palatable type of shit before. They'll even link you the archive from a decade ago and tell you much hasn't changed but the type of content is completely different, as well as the attitudes towards posting. The internet and Sup Forums grew up and tried to be too mature for their own good, shit talking things they did before and saying how it was cancerous. I'm sure people will look back on the current state of Sup Forums and say how cancerous it was comparatively as well, but in the moment, people were definitely enjoying themselves on Sup Forums and it was significantly more evident too. People simply had fun and while shitposting was rampant, it wasn't to the degree now where mods are constantly necessary to even make the board usable. Spam and all that shit wasn't filled with vitriol like it is now. The worst part about Sup Forums trying to act more mature (and likely the users growing up and actually being more mature) is that users that thought of Sup Forums as their sekrit club became even more butthurt when they realized Sup Forums was a meme factory and their memes went from being created here to hundreds of other aggregator sites. This, along with a general lack of care for the board as time went on, is the cause for the disappearance of OC. Sup Forums still has OC specific to individual series in their general threads but nothing on the same level as what we had before.

There would be like 3 people here. I found Sup Forums in '07 and Sup Forums in '09 and I still can't seem to find people who remember '09

Anyways, another thing that's changed is the number of tripfags. They were all over before and while most people hated them, they brought some life into the board and gave us someone to hate. People like Gendo or Bromont or whoever else were fun to read about and made decent threads but now we have Lelouch or whatever other faggot posting their shit opinions and making abhorrent posts all over the site with no value. Not 2007 specific but even the shitposting tripfags, the ones that actively attempted to lower the quality of the board have grown bored of it. You can see this in Taiga's group of friends, Kronie and Siztra, you name it. This site as a whole has deteriorated to the point where it's not as fun and straightforward discussion is the norm

I really don't agree that much. I took a break from Sup Forums in '11 until this month. I was pleasantly surprised with how not-horrible it was. I was expecting it to be much worse. I don't think a ton has change. Sounds like you were new in '07 and you were oblivious to what you didn't like about it back then

because 2009 was a blur, everything after 2007 was a fucking blur, the only thing i can recall about 2007 was it was 10 years ago

fuck this shit

No, I was here.

See, I would be willing to put some consideration to your post if you didn't say you left at 2011 and came back and it was not-horrible. 2011 and maybe 2012 were the last bearable years before the posting became as stagnant as possible, moderators became overactive and generals became more commonplace.

Honestly, if one thing is surprising with Sup Forums, it's how little it changes.
I started browsing /tg/ in 2008. Stopped for a goof five years at least because I stopped playing tabletop games. Came back just recently. It's pretty much the exact same old board.
Only board I can think of that has significantly changed is Sup Forums, and even then it's pretty much just a shift in focus more than anything.

The moderators are overzealous now that's true. And you were also right about the tripfags being better back then. That's most of the truth in your post.

I don't know what you mean about posting being stagnant. But I expected coming back to find nothing but greentext threads and rampant normal faggotry. I was pleasantly surprised to see that wasn't the case. This board could be better, but the "glory days" weren't that much better than they are today imo

mean to quote Also look at 's post. It agrees with mine that shit just hasn't changed that much.

You guys sound like you came back expecting this place to be a literal warzone of normalfags and are just happy that it's not the case. Sup Forums and Sup Forums has definitely changed. The content on Sup Forums alone was more varied instead of being "x thread for x show" and the recycled threads.
