How has your time on 4chan affected you?
It has ensured that I will never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever get a gf. My chances were reasonably low before but they are at absolute zero now.
>>24886947
It's ruined any chances I've had of finding a girlfriend or just relating to people in general. The worst part is once you go down this path there is no turning back.
It has ruined me. Completely ruined anything I could have become.
>>24886947
it's good for me because I can write stuff anonymously and people won't suck up to me for who I am
relieves a lot of stress tbqh
It's makes me forget my life is shit for just a little while. I don't have any friends, so this is my only social interaction. The bad part is I'm becoming dependent on it because it reinforces the idea that I'm not good enough to make friends or have a normal life.
>>24886947
It has changed me for the worst
It ruined my life.
>>24886947
Fuck off degenerate kike shill
>>24887071
How did it ruin your life?
i hate myself and everyone on here
I've became weirder and more depressed. also more informed and better at understanding people
my humour changed a lot too. normal people can't make me laugh anymore.
it makes me feel a little less alone
I went from being a mere loser to being a racist pedophile weeaboo with an interest in anal masturbation.
It's not as if I wasn't those things to begin with, but 4chan made it a lot easier to wallow in my shit and shame.
I now have no soul nor shareable opinions of my own, but at least I've become more self and globally aware. I feel worse now but I don't regret taking this path.
>>24886947
This place always makes me feel better about myself.
A lot of you have the same problems I do, so it's nice to come here and see that I'm not alone. That's great, but the best thing is that no matter how pathetic I think I am, there's always at least one post that shows me how much worse it could be if I were actually retarded.
>>24886947
On one hand it filled the void in my life and is my one constant source of human interaction.
On the other hand, the hymans that I interact with are just as fucked up as me if not worse, no offense, so it doesn't exactly help my situation.
I think though above all it provides me an outlet to be myself and say thing the things I want to say and talk about the things I want to talk about without being unfriended or downvoted or labelled as a whatever-ist or being shunned in real life.
Even if/when I go back to society and even if I start making friends with normies and get a girlfriend and have a fulfilling well-paying career and then get married and have kids and everything - this is the one place where I can truely be myself and don't have to hold back or mince my words or put on a mask.
It ruined my chances at being anything resembling a normal human being.
>>24887185
Anon, if you're a pedo now then you were a pedo always. It's just that you finally accepted it.
It has turned me into a hardened dick who is unable to make friends much less getting a gfI MISS THE COMFORT IN BEING SAAAAAAAAAAD
ITT: losers using a website as a scapegoat
>>24887311
That's what I said though.
Probably reinforced my introverted tendencies since I can easily talk with people here and not have to go through mental gymnastics of keeping up appearances.
I wonder if sometimes 4chan's r9k and another chan board I go on which have a pretty negative view of the world corrupted me.
I don't think about 4chan when I'm not on 4chan or here though.
I was a sperglord faggot before I came here.
>>24887383
W-well here's a loli.
It made me bitter as fuck.
I found normie humour before boring, but I didn't really care. If I hear normies talking now with their shitty humour I get fucking pissed. I seriously can't stand it now. But that's just one aspect.
4chan made my life literally worse. Before 4chan I actually got to study and get shit done what needed to be done. Now I can't close this shitty image board to get to study and shit.
Plus I 'learned the truth' about life in general. I see everything negative now. I even remember when I was more positive thinking and happier back then. Now I just can't be happy because redpill and shit.
Also it just made me more socially retarded.
I don't know familia. 4chan is pretty shit. If you actually want to achieve something in life, don't come here. Especially /r9k/. This board is pure poison. Of course you say to yourself you will never associate with these pathetic robots on here, but the longer you stay, the more you realize how shitty your life actually is. And it goes into more shit from then on. It's more like a subconscious thing. May sound retarded, but I'm speaking from experience.
>>24887509
>Of course you say to yourself you will never associate with these pathetic robots on here, but the longer you stay, the more you realize how shitty your life actually is
this
For years I was deep into waifuism. Not a bad thing though as I was never going to have a life anyways. I was already so pathetic that 4chan probably helped.
>>24887485
and 1 4 u 2
Made me redpilled and more aware on life.
I could be so naive and swallowing that blue pill if it wasn't for 4chan.
I love dicks now
I feel like an alien going through life. I'm pretty normie but everything feels performative. Sometimes I wonder if 4chan is even real.
>>24887867
>I feel like an alien going through life
This. I'm pretty sure sex and relationships are just memes made up by normies to troll us, I just can't see how they happen in reality
It fucked me up. My life is a meme. My humor is different to the one of the people surrounding me. I got this "nihilistic" worldview now and everyone thinks I'm a fucked up retard because of that. The only thing keeping me stable atm is a girl I like and things are looking pretty good with her. She's basically the only peeson that motivates me to do shit and to keep going. I'm going really autistic about things with her tho since I didn't really have feelinhs for a girl for 5 years or so.
I wanted to leave many times. I wasn't able to.
>>24888291
Sorry for typos. I'm on my phone.
I avoided normalfaggotry because of it. Before this place I posted on traditional forums and I definitely would have moved on to Reddit. Thanks moot, you fucking faggot.
>>24886947
I'm half Jew and half Spaniard so I literally can't stop thinking about some really big muscle fat neckbeards who read the Turner Diaries will lynch me before I get laid.
>>24887867
Nothing feels real anymore. A lot of people have lives but I don't. When I was a kid and had friends... that doesn't seem real anymore either. Like I dreamed it up.
makes me feel like I actually have friends
It's made me x10 more self-conscious as well as making me really jaded towards life.
>>24886947
Didn't really do much for me although i used to quite like it in the early years.Especially /x/
>>24887009
Alright. HOW?
>>24887017
And you are female or rich?
>>24887311
Nice meme thinking there. So-called normal people says those types of things to excuse behavior. Once this always this.
>>24888652
Any methods of fixing this?
Perhaps I was too young. I started visiting 4chan when I was 14. I always liked dry and dark humour, but up until I was 13 I pitied lifeless stuff such pencils, if they got broken or anything. Slowly I became a gamer and started becoming a literal troll (before it got mainstream ayo, so people didn't actually detect trolling as easy). I became detached slowly from basically anything. I never really learned to fully attach myself to reality.
On the other hand I could discuss to a lot of people without masks. On the chan more actual discussions about life are held than in a whole country. It made me more secure in who I was and how other people are or pretend to be.
It also made me realise that I was still young, and that every single old person wants to become either young or successful. Nostalgia is abundant. Therefore, aside from a life high on weed and drugs, I started studying and I'm working towards a career, though leadership positions etc. The knowledge about human helped a lot.
Still it added to detaching - I can switch from personality and opinion within seconds. Still I'm the same person and actually defend two mutually exclusive opinions. Perhaps I've mastered doublethink.
21 now. It affected me and perhaps made me more myself. Atleast I don't feel normie and that feels good.
It created two sides to me. Nicest guy you'll ever meet and twisted fucking psychopath
I feel safe here, if this place dies I wont know what to do with myself, I don't like any other chans. I would like wizchan if people actually posted.
>>24888973
They're all here going ree ree.
>>24886994
Ill be your girlfriend anon.
4chan changed my life, i got a boyfriend from here
>>24886947
Had people there to listen to my problems when no one else would. Someone sent me 20 pounds once too when I couldn't afford diesel to get to work.
>>24888871
I'm a pedo myself though.
I keep it 2D of course, but I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't want 3D if it was legal.
>>24886947
I can only last about an hour before my shields drop in my power level is revealed. Then I go full assertive aggressive guy that no one likes to talk to.
Alot of things are fucked now. But shitposting is just so gosh darn fantastic.
At least 4chan distracted from the pain. I guess it's like a drug that way.
>>24886947
Ive been through some goofs, some gaffs, but mostly a whole lotta laffs
It gives me a chance to communicate with people without normies being a big fat doodoo head
I have spent nearly every day of the last 5 years on this website for a majority of my time. To this day, unless I post a troll, no one ever acknowledges my existence.
i feel distrustfull of young white men
>>24886947
>pretty hostile online against anyone since it made me realizie if im anonymous im literally invincible
>redpilled on reality
>more lonely
>made me redpilled on women and how much of them are whores and that i will probably die alone
what can you do
It's made me hate close communities more and apparently I've got subconscious misogynistic thoughts. My girlfriend gets really pissed about them but I'm trying to work on reversing them. Thanks, fuckers.
>>24890994
here's a (You) for you
>>24890994
I do it for you. You too.
>>24886947
I've definitely become more cynical. Over time it's taught me how easily and absolutely influenced my opinions about things are, and the fact that I'm so gullible in what I believe scares the fuck out of me.
>>24887347
basically this
>>24886947
I'm more social online and offline both. Nicer, more empathetic, and more accepting. I'm also much better at identifying logical fallacies in arguments, and I've also grown accustomed to checking facts (and going to primary sources, too). I think my writing has improved, too.
Absolutely serious.
>it's all in how you see it here, I guess
>>24886947
It makes me feel a little better. Since I'm surrounded by people who have it worse. Thank you guys for leading such miserable lifes.
>>24892638
It's nice to be appreciated. You're welcome anon.
Definitely become a million times more racist and at least a hundred times more edgy
It's ruined my sense of humor.
I can only laugh at stupid memes and shitposting. I also get genuinely upset when tumblr/reddit steals and bastardizes our memes for the normie world.
Aside from that, it's actually made me a pretty well-rounded person, surprisingly enough. I'm not as beholden to my beliefs as I used to be and I have more patience when I get into arguments or debates IRL.
>>24886947
Made me realize I have a fucking internet addiction.
When I'm NEET, I do nothing but post here all day. This is pretty much my hobby.
So I've wasted alot of time here for these past 8 years.. But I feel like it has also expended my thoughts to a broader view. You get so many different views here on things.It has opened my mind to new ideas and points of views.
There's been good and there's been bad.
>>24887017
That's the beauty of 4chan, isn't?
You can say whatever here, and no matter who you are, your post *will* get viewed. All posts are treated equally, no matter who's writing it.
Something that Reddit, Twitter and all those other sites can't do.
4chan is true freedom of speech.
Started coming here at 10
>tfw my outlook on life changed a whole lot
>learned about how shitty people can be
>can't trust women
A positive change.
>before 4chan
Edgy socialist atheist who liked to smoke weed and was an unaware ultraautist. Even though it suffered from depression and loneliness, it was unaware of its ability to repel others with its peculiar nature. It's future was hardset in IT work with a bunch of cyborg Reddit cuccs. It's rare intellectual ability was the sole source of its inspiration.
>after 4 Chan
Self aware autist who understands its place in society. All direction in life has been destroyed, it no longer thinks of women has humans but parasites who crave sex and power. It blindly wanders towards a future where depression, drug abuse, loneliness and suicide are the only certainties. No longer delusioned by the left, it is now a fascist who's life suffers from inexhaustible anger which burns a seering hole into its very soul. its intellectual ability now of no use, as it has no desire to better the state of humanity.
>>24887509
>I even remember when I was more positive thinking and happier back then. Now I just can't be happy because redpill and shit.
Looks like you got a case of Red Pill Depression. That fucked me up too. It alienated me further from what little friends I had left.
>>24893586
>10
Shit nigga I forget how young some people are on here
>before 4chan
Tried to do whatever on the internet but never had anything to do.
>after 4chan
Now have something to do on the internet but want to die
Ive subtly influenced the demeanor of you fuckers, all the while making sure none of you change me
>>24886947
I've become less degenerate and cringy after browsing 4chan the past few years.
Negatively.
During college it sucked away a lot valuable time but fortunately I came to realize what needed to be done. Now I browse about 4-5 hours per week.
i never feel alone on here because people always reply to my posts. it's more like an alternative facebook to me
>>24893586
>10
Leave now. You are the reason 4chan is bad. Just leave you maggot I don't care how old you are now just leave.
>>24895028
I would say the opposite I found a community that talks shit to me and how bad I am doing. So I try to better myself then when I compare myself to my peers I am actually doing better.
It has made me hate women.
>>24886947
It gave me something to do with myself besides vidya during the climax of the hell that was freshmen year of highschool, once that ended and my parents put me into online classes for the remainder of highschool I just kept on using it.
Gave me a massive mlp fetish, I have a fuckload of pone porn on my pc.
Also really gave me that extra push to become a pc gamer.
Also turned me into a full on hitler was right national socialist.
Other than that its just entertained me.
>>24886947
>>24895635
Oh and I guess its also made me much more cynical in person, and be much more numbed to shit like violence and other things that normies seem to be adverse to.
Also obliterated any possibility of me ever getting into cancerous normie shit like hashtags and what not, I never bought into that shit but being a channer pushed me to the absolute other end of the spectrum.
