Does anyone else remember the good old days when only Westerners where on the Internet? Just 10 years ago you rarely saw an Indian or Polish dude on the Internet. Just us Westerners. The quality has gone down with everyone, even girls getting on the Internet.

Another terrible tragedy for a first worlder...
No wonder why you guys are total queers

I remember going on message boards around 2002-2005 and it felt like I was talking to people who could have been my neighbours. and by that I mean upper middle class white people. This could be nostalgia but I remember it being a lot more polite and civil compared to today.

4chan was never this normie scum, go back to somethingawful.

>>58062541

Yes, everyone was just like you. Then all the trash flooded in.

Lol, there were fuckloads of Poles on the web 10 years ago. What the fuck you're on about?

I remember playing WoW and on some servers it was only polish bitching in the chat.

4chan when it started out was almost entirely white american/canadian/euro college aged males. It stayed that way for a good few years until it started becoming popular with ebin kids and latin americans.

I used to frequent some niche modding forums in the early 2000s pre-4chan and it was full if slavs from day 1

10 years ago most of 4chan users were not yet born..

I don't deny the white, I deny the upper middle class.
This place was for the poorer people.

And old 4chan had even less.

>t 10 years ago
Yeah I remember, I was also here, it wasn't that great. I remember the mid to late 90s internet too,that was pretty good,mainly bc most kids weren't into internet yet.
Also int is mainly generals,unless some meme thread gets opened where everyone banters. I haven't seen a good book/movie thread in months and no I'm not going to open one either,don't give half a shit.

I suspect this has more to do with the fact that 10 years ago Sweden was seen as paradise and now you can't post without being called a cuck,everyone bringing up rape statistics or the fact that somalis kidnap and rape 14 year olds and get community service etc etc.

Where have you been 10 years ago? I got my first PC in 2003, but didn't post on Anglo sites since my English wasn't good.

The average North-American 4chaner was a basement dwelling juvenile looser with notable exception,like /g/ which was ok b4 all the kids started flooding it because applevspc lololoo endless shitstorm x vs y "wars".
For kicks I asked a simple question about the compatibility of the then newly announced Skylake mount with existing cpu coolers(a fairly simple questions) and got only memes,literally lol he doesn't know was one of the replies. Well turns out the thinner substrate causes some coolers to crack the cpu, as was revealed months later.
In tech area reddit>4chan now.

Ironically,the poorer/more obscure the cunt,the more likely that the average user from that cunt is from the 1% that are very wealthy,or more likely kids of the ruling class. You can see this in Brazil posters,were half live in commieblocks and half in giant villas in gated communities. The main exception might be Eastern Europe,were technically savvy people knew about 4chan a long time ago,I remember an ethnic sas-german kid in my first year of high-school raving about 4
