because I am addicted to the constant stream of content, the validation I get when people respond to my posts/trolls and the fact I can vent my utter discontent amongst likeminded losers

I despise this place. I feel physically drained spending so much time here. Yet I just cannot leave. I can't type fast enough, I can't refresh the Catalog enough times, I just can't stop

to be completely honest I feel like I hit a wall in going here

I met a lot of people and that all fell apart, the content has drastically changed to be more mainstream, I don't really like seeing porn and sex shit every day, and nobody really wants to talk about anything else except to shamelessly shill or promote the stuff they like without any real reasoning behind it.

And that's every board, not just r9k. This just feels like a big cess pit that is supposed to shock you or make you laugh if you're a normie and you're not used to it, but there's this feeling I have that the sex and psychotic shit people post here is not only repetitive but it's also just grimy and like unhealthy to see.

I think if you're 15 and you come here and talk to older alty people who spend their entire day on the internet, it could be good for you and you'll learn a few things. But you hit a certain point where you just grow past it and it feels like being a super senior. Totally out of place.

I visit here mostly out of old habit.
It's no so bad when avoiding the partaking in its negativity, rather allowing others' posts to serve as a reminder to persist with betterment so that I'd not return here again to lounge in pity.

I'm too autistic for normal online conversations and don't know what to talk about. I also feel like I'm bothering other people, so 4chan gives me a way to write something and being "social" without really bothering anyone. It is just so hard to have 1on1 conversations without the protection which comes through anonymity
>>
This is pretty much the only place where I enjoy interacting with people, and the only place that seems to share my sense of humour.

My friends are here. You are literally the only people I can relate to - the only people I have related to in the last 6 years. There is no other place for me to get the kind of conversation, pleasure, appreciation and happiness you guys give me on - almost - the daily.
I started thinking about what would happen to us (the real bad ones) if 4chan went down, and I honestly don't know what I'd do.

I have no idea

I'm the living essence of a "normie" maybe even a "chad".

I come here from time to time to kill time, when I'm in a queue, when I have nothing to do at work etc.

Maybe I come here beacuse I can interact with a segment of the population I would never have any contact with
>>
I need the sadness. I come here to feel sad, by seeing how bad others have failed. Otherwise I wouldn't feel anything, I've grown numb to my own failure.

Occasionally I get other feels. Sometimes there's interesting shit, or I help an anon, or an anon helps me.

The pinnacle of r9k are really the greentext threads, especially missed signals ones. Then I can imagine how it'd feel to have a signal to miss ;_;

I gusse so far its two Chad posts

even beside fact that this site is floated with normies nowadays, i dont know the other place which purpose would the same

also where the fuck else am i going to go? Leddit? All the ledditors are busy congratulating themselves pretending to be physicists understanding the pop physics gravitational wave. That's another thing i like about this place, it is the anti reddit.

>constant stream of content
Unfortunately it's essentially the same content constantly.. But otherwise, this

A lot of us are probably unable to form meaningful emotional relationships with people, and in that commonality we form a relationship to this place that's genuine to us. I wish I could meet and be friends with a lot of the people here but I'd be unable to feel the way I do about them now without the anonymity.

We're all losers and are able to project our personal problems onto the stream of anonymous losers who may or may not be like us, in order to create the semblance of a true community which none of us have ever had
