I been here 3 years and I've noticed a significant change. I'm not claiming oldfaggotry, but it seems as though the summerfags and reddit dickheads have hijacked b

Oldfag here. I like Sup Forums as it is. You people need to lighten up and just learn to accept Sup Forums as it is.

Cya newfag

>2 years
>newfag

Its sad, but you're right. I've been debating leaving for a while, but where do we go from here?

WoW forums.

Its always like this until October

Sup Forums has changed

Would you take the risk to forgo all this slander and insults for any completely unimportant things?
Forgo all the obnoxious dicks, fat girls and all the perversions, my old faggot? That will be stupid, your days will become bored, you will die a/b/out, bro. Better to kill yourself.

I think it's being spammed by a handful of dedicated fuckwits posting the exact same shit constantly. I just skim over those threads and try to ignore them, but yeah it's tiresome seeing the same moronic shit on repeat here

byebye silly :3

ZOMG ITZ CATURDAY!! LONGCAT IS LONG.

Why don't you pick a good board and post there? I only use Sup Forums for porn and occasionally scan for raid type shit. There's more to Sup Forums than this shit lad

Thank you for being realistic user, and not some fucking edgelord faggot. It's too easy to tell newfags from oldfags nowadays. It's depressing in a way.

LONGCAT IS GONE

no

The hostility and maltreatment towards newfags is why this place is, and will remain shit. The original oldfags and genuine Anonymous etc are gone. Holding onto the old ways will ensure that newfags badly imitate or try to bait oldfags who get butthurt at the slightest sign of Sup Forums nonconformity.

but y tho?

longcat will live forever

You're too new to have noticed.


That kind or retarded complacency is why we cater to such worthless little shits now.

Here's what happened: exposure to cancer. Each "exposure" of Sup Forums has resulted in a noticable wave of newfags as well as a fundamental shift in the average user's behavior.

It all started in 2006 with Project Chanology. That brought the "V for Vendetta" wannabe Anonymous people here. These were fully unindoctrinated people using Sup Forums as a "base" for planning anti-Scientology attacks. Their wave wasn't that bad.

About two years later we had GaiaWars and other flame battles with cheesy online games. Lots of underage b& annoying GaiaOnline users started using Sup Forums as a place to blog back and forth for free. We chose to fight back by scaring them off with gore. This had the VERY unfortunate result of an immediate second wave of VERY messed up newfags from the userbases of Ogrish and Rotten.com coming here.

From there it was mostly IRL raids and social media "dox" attacks that resulted in media exposure--the infamous "hackers on steroids" shit as well as Jessie Slaughter and a decent handful of other "victims". Each one resulted in a wider and wider base of social media retards--This was notably when "dubs checkem" became a thing.

There were waves in between, but the most recent and most devastating wave of newfags was awful. They're the Reddit wave. Social media whores obsessed with memes (which, when they happen artificially, they don't even count as memes by definition, so it's double retarded) but here's the kicker: this wave is spoiled by things like Facebook, 9gag, leReddshit and other social media that allow you to "upvote" content and customize your feed, effectively making the site display what YOU want to see. They were used to that shit and they expected it of Sup Forums when they came here, all excited to see what the originator of their favorite memes was like.

(Cont)

After that, the floodgates were open

the problem is that you actually think anyone in the world would care if you actually did leave

I uh... i didn't read that.

All i know is that i enjoy Sup Forums. I've enjoyed it for 11 years. And if you don't enjoy Sup Forums. You're doing it wrong.

Yeah. It is depressing in that there's a lot more relentless stupidity to wade through these days for a few good threads. Maybe one day there won't even be those few good threads

...

(continuing)

They wanted the ability to provide THEIR all-important input on the content that was provided and they really didn't like learning that they weren't special.

These entitled little twats complained and proliferated the existence of Sup Forums on their other sites and, most noteably, they complained to admins and blew up mod mailboxes bitching about "This and that" not belonging on "their" Sup Forums (among other boards).

Well, unfortunately, the mods, taking the path of least resistance, began to acquiesce to the newfag scum and push out certain forms of content, police the site much more forcefully and even hired additional staff to the janitors for this purpose. (this is what happened to, among other sources, the MLPfags).

This fundamentally destroyed the essence of what was great about this site--noncensorship. The thing that made Sup Forums and other boards beautiful was the free, lightning-speed sharing of ideas with zero content policing, which made a 100% pure creative environment for users shareing like-minded ideas is a discussion environment. That's the "collective" the userbase of this site always had up to that point. It's still there but it's fundamentally damaged and getting worse with the inclusion of untimely IRL movements such as the backlash of white supremacist retards who exploded when Obama was elected (Stormfaggots and "nigger hate threads") as well as the college left "social justice" movement pollute this site significantly, and it's exacerbated by the fact that we STILL have the fullscale exposure to social media going on because we're one of the primary proliferation sites for memes and "Internet lingo" content.

So, in a single term "Social Media userbase" is responsible for the lion's share of the destruction of Sup Forums.


>inb4 tld;dr, lol

I don't give a shit, Cancerfag.

this should help

kek

dude stop no one cares

It's literally the subject of this thread.

This, good post.

did op be sayin that we right a book newfag?

Get a fucking life

I didn't read most of that, but the snippits i did read either didn't occur ever, or they occurred in radically different times in the history of Sup Forums.

That was very informative. Too bad they cant make it a sticky.

RIP in peaces

Contrary to popular belief, it is possible to lead a successful life with a career and still be a user of this website.

I've enjoyed quite a few good, in-depth conversations, lots of art, etc. and learned A LOT from my years of being a Sup Forumstard. I started back before I was in college (anime/manga fan, which was one of the original purposes of this site--Sup Forums was actually "anime - random" in those day) and I'm still coming back regularly now, a decade later.

Thanks

>right a book

Drugs are for fools; Stay in school!

Well you wouldn't want to wrong a book, would you?

for all of you out there

this

2 years is a newfag, dumb ass

...

Wrong, newfags came from newgrounds. You would know that if you weren't a newfag.

Oldfag (2006).

I think at this point it should be

03-04 Originalfag
05-07 Ancientfag
08-10 Oldfag
11-13 Newfag
14-16 Cancer (leReddshit/9fag tier)

...

in that case i'm an ancientfag

>alpha

Alpha is a personality type trait, it has nothing to do with fitness or hygiene.

This should be supplemented with "Become educated" and give links to good sources of basic college-level information that everyone who wants to succeed in life should know. The Great Courses and YouTube (technical/ informational) are excellent for this.

>Hirofags

LOL, I kind of like it. He's not really hands-on though; he's not a significant influence on the site state or anything.

I'd call them something along the lines of "meme junkies" or something.

According to this anyone under 25 on here is a newfag

boopnet.org
No activity now, but if enough people migrate it have a possibilty of reminding of the old Sup Forums

It's a userbase built on a culture (or maybe vice versa). Of course the majority of users from each "era" will have a modal age they're closest to. That's how it works, particularly since this site used to be a "word of mouth" thing for certain content enthusiasts who share like interests.
