You will never be an oldfag
lol no you fucking don't, the amount of years I spent on this shithole is absurd
>you will always be an oldfag who spent his golden years here
>been here since 2013
what a waste of fucking time
this place is a shithole
I stopped posting here pretty much entirely but this fucking lockdown ruined my mental health and now I am back here.
What was it like, was Yas Forums ever good? I need to know tell me!
Yas Forums was never good, just less worse
it was never good, it just gets less enjoyable over time.
pretty much what said
creativity is down when more people come and spew their poison here
So you're saying Yas Forums was never a cool secrit club for like minded bros having dumb fun?
it was
some aspects of this place of this place still are
doesn't make it good
>he doesn't remember boxxy
>he doesn't know what 7 did
>he doesn't know efg
I won't, but I will always remember newsgroups and a wealth of unique forums before Reddit and Twitter homogenised it all.
>efg is now considered oldfaggotry
It's a 12 year old meme
it's fun but it's progressively getting worse on both the moderation and user fronts
increased moderation always correlates with increased user base, so the more newfriends flood in the worse will the mods become. I miss the wild west years that lasted up until m**t had to introduce captcha to stop the spam
I remember when you got called cancer for using efg.
sage goes in all fields fag
different boards had different golden ages.
/fa/'s golden age was 09-11 when it was just 500 tripfags posting underaged nudes
Yas Forums's golden age was 09-14, back when you had to be patrician by filling your chart with random world music albums (sharethreads were top tier during this period) and a series of meme shitstorms occurred (my beautiful dark twisted fantasy got a 10/10 on pitchfork)
Yas Forums's golden age flourished from like 2012-2015 or thereabouts, where it was a medium-sized board with a real character to it
Yas Forums's golden age lasted until recently, where it was the only board reliably creating OC
other boards like /lit/ and /his/ haven't really gone through cataclysmic changes like other boards have, so they remain useful. Yas Forums on the other hand has been utterly unusuable for years now because it's just a discord for teenagers to discuss celebrity gossip now.
Yas Forums dipped in quality for a few years but is now a pretty ok board. nothing on Yas Forums ever was or ever will be "good" though.
>old Yas Forums sharethreads
>pre election Yas Forums
>code geass with Yas Forums
>old school Yas Forums and bodybuilding.com forums back when zyzz was alive
take me back user...
>Yas Forums dipped in quality for a few years but is now a pretty ok board. nothing on Yas Forums ever was or ever will be "good" though.
It's at its worst right now with no new OC and newfag soyjak spam
2016-2017 at least had amerimutts
Imagine being old
good analysis, also /sp/'s golden age during the early 2010s was amazing.
>other boards like /lit/ and /his/ haven't really gone through cataclysmic changes like other boards have
/lit/ uses to be leftypol central, even with marx general threads, then janny changes happened and the leftypol part splintered off towards other chans. /his/ is too young.
these, every single one of these.
>/sp/ will never be in 2012 again
sad!
whatever happened to wewlad?
i forgot to mention /sp/
/sp/ was the most bro-tier board and got along with everyone. i remember /sp/ being bro'd up with Yas Forums, it was bro'd up with Yas Forums, /sp/ and it's incessant spam was charming in the way only Yas Forums can be.
Yas Forums, in my opinion, took a hit at some point in the last few years. i'm only now returning here.
what pains me is Yas Forums, because it was MY board for years and years and years and it was gradually overrun by enough newfags that they started knowingly overturn board culture. the newfags on Yas Forums were worse than anywhere else. you'd have people saying "ok, i completed x genre and i didnt like it" and you'd ask "what the fuck do you mean you ""completed it""? and they'd respond, earnestly: "i listened to the top 5 albums and didnt like em."
when you would argue, like had always been done on Yas Forums, that you had to dive deep into genres and couldn't just listen to RYM's top 5 albums they'd be like "lmao no ok boomer xD xD xD who has the time to listen to music lol" and the board never recovered.
Yas Forums got worse and then it stabilized but you can see the board it always was. Yas Forums is utterly unrecognizable.
I've been here since 2005
yea, Yas Forums nosedived so fucking hard. Board is just trash now
Pssst, if any of you oldfugs are interested, check kc on endchan.
