I've been coming to this shithole for about 8 years, on and off, at times addictively, then after a while I loathe it and don't click the speed dial link for 6 months. this is probably the habit pattern of most old Sup Forums adepts
and last break I had from here started about when Moot left and I've just come back and browsed for the last couple of days while I shit or wait for things, and I gotta say, Sup Forums is really different now.
it appears substantially dumbed down, which seems like a shift that would be impossible to recognise given that it's always been full of dumb, dumb shit. but it really does seem different... cheaper, or less wizened, or something. the dumb posts seem dumber, like proper, ingrained dumb. it has the feel now of other chans.. you know how you'd go to other chans occasionally and they were like Sup Forums but a bit less savvy? they had a bit less cool about them, and you'd think, that's why Sup Forums is different, it's more on the ball, sharper. well now it feels like those other chans here.
I've watched the place evolve a bit here and there over the years, as new generations of retards found it and played out their style of shit talk. but this shift seems really stark, it almost feels manufactured. like that feel of a shill in the thread, or the creepy emptiness of samefag spam threads... the conversations here now stink in the same way.
I wonder what happened. Moot's spirit really meant something I guess, perhaps the original inspiration of the place went with him.
not that I give a fuck
reasonably curious tho
