This site has nothing to offer anybody. There is no quality content here you cannot get more quickly and efficiently elsewhere. This is an addiction which reduces your productivity, attention span, and free time. You are becoming more bitter, narrow minded, haughty, and old. Leave now and block this site. There is nothing here but slow, lonely suicide.
People do not have arguments here. Posters do not engage one another on key points, they nitpick with greentext and mock each over. Nobody is instersted in the truth; people are battling for fleeting moments of superiority. Active commenters are loud jackasses who tumble into one internet fight after another, anxiously keeping ten tabs open to ensure they keep the last word in all of them. An insightful post is one in ten thousand, and no matter how hard you filter this place you are still searching for diamonds in a garbage dump.
This place is not making you happy. You are not having fun. You are not gathering stories to tell, learing, or growing as a person. Insted you chuckle every thirty minutes and are occasionally spurred to masturbation by libidinal posts or pictures. You are addicted to readily available information and pressure free social interacton. This place is slowly poisoning you with misogyny, narcissism, a false dichotomy surrounding normalfags, and insecurity.
I'm not telling you to b urself. I'm not telling to go outside. I'm not even telling you to make new friends. Just leave Yas Forums. Do anything else.
I only come here for like 15 minutes every few days

See you next week

i think i have a good relationship with it at this point. i'm not wiling away hours, it's usually more like a quick morning thing or something to do while waiting for something else
Liam Rodriguez
I only have multiple tabs open for shilling my crappy awesome music lol
Lincoln Jenkins
This, but first recommend me some music that will help me detox

i keep coming back. frankly all this coronavirus shit, state-mandated-isolation and potential death of my loved one's has got me relapsing into a depression i haven't felt since the years after i graduated high school.
cheers to your health though, brother.
Parker Johnson
True enough
Austin Flores
Pretty sure I saw this same exact post on Yas Forums years back. Zombie pasta?
William Bailey
it's the realization everybody who visits this place long enough comes to realize. if social media is an addiction, Yas Forums is probably the heroin. i won't deny that the periods of my life where i've frequented this site, it's made it increasingly difficult to relate to other people.
Bentley Brown
It's better than Reddit or Discord, and I'm real life interaction is for the birds.
I'm back after a 2 year hiatus. I used to be a regular poster on many boards for a couple hours or more a day back in 2013, but after a solid 5 year stream of legitimately pointless arguments, pictures of dicks and some of the unfuniest and poorly-aged jokes, I gradually got deathly sick and left. This will most likely be the only reply I leave for a while, as all I intend to use this site for is to save porn and check for clebrity deaths, which is what I wish I did from the start. I still dislike this site for the most part, the in-jokes are painfully unfunny and the layout sucks. There's still some novelty in Yas Forums but I'll most likely leave again after I find a space thats less toxic and boring.
This isn’t an airport. No need to announce your departure.
Asher Lewis
the funny thing about this place, is that if you wait long enough eventually the rotation of memes restarts and the jokes become funny/new again. i find myself coming and going every few months. i'd say i can't help it, but i'm actually just bored.
Noah Rivera
I was feeling this way when I started about a year ago. Honestly, I just have a problem I think with addiction to online communities. If not a Facebook group or a subreddit, then a series of Yas Forums boards.
That said, I've found honestly that I appreciate Yas Forums more for its anonymity and disassociation. Conversations can be a bit more real, you can call someone out if they're being a hive-minded faggot that's doing all the stuff you said. It's a bit more honest, but also easy to forget about and not take seriously.
It's not a bad idea to limit your time on here, though. Much more productive things you could be doing with your time.
Brandon Lewis
You're pretty right about this in concept. But most people now browse Yas Forums for brief moments and don't think about it later. The other percentage of retards here are stupid, racist and misogyonistic dumbasses that have no hope. I could argue that at least they only show their retardation on this site, but you're right that they only impulse on each other to be the worst scum on earth. We're pretty much fucked, you can't change most peoples points of view.
>People do not have arguments here. Posters do not engage one another on key points, they nitpick with greentext and mock each over.
There is some truth to this. Dumb arguments and trolling are inevitable in a place like Yas Forums. However, since discovering this site, I've had many great conversations. Although there will always be idiots here, there are also people who are passionate about music and truly insightful.
>This place is slowly poisoning you with misogyny, narcissism, a false dichotomy surrounding normalfags, and insecurity.
None of this is true. The individuals who post misogynistic material and act like narcissists are either trolling or incel losers in their mother's basement. Anybody who is "poisoned" by that was probably a moron to begin with.
For as ridiculous as this place can be, it truly is something special. If you choose to ignore the stupid stuff, there is actually a lot you can gain from here. If you feel as though this place is having a negative effect on you and you want to leave, I respect that. Still, disparaging the entire board is not necessary. Let people enjoy things.
Carson Collins
If you're to stupid to not pay attention to people just trying to feel superior thats your problem not mine. Personally i think this website is better than most, It does not feed on psychological patterns to make you addicted like facebook and twitter do. However I do agree it can make you bitter if you feed into it but so can any other website, its more about the type of person you are.
Camden Mitchell
based, i've made genuine friends on this site and have been put onto hundreds of great songs/bands/artists etc, wading through the dickheads isn't fun but it's worth it sometimes
Jack Kelly
ive seen this copypasta before you can't fool me nice try fbi
Michael Allen
At least you got dubs on your way out.
See you tomorrow as usual.
Aiden Martinez
You're right, but it's 1:03 in the morning, my few friends are all asleep, and I'm awake. Where else am I going to go?
Hudson Cooper
this thread needs some music and i have what it needs:
imagine coping this hard over a Kiribatian Chessboxing enthusiast board
Eli Thomas
Feeling the same. Remember that better times are ahead, friends. All the best.
Gabriel Thomas
Maybe if you exclusively browse boards that are off-topic or garbage (mu, b, r9k and shit like that). Even those have decent threads sometimes but the niche interest boards have good discussion daily. g, k, ck and all that genuinely help people improve at their hobbies. My friend whose into tech started browsing g recently and said he find a lot of interesting stuff. I've learned a lot about guns on k. mu is just constantly off topic and full of shills but even then I've discovered a lot of cool music here and participated in fun threads.
Cameron Baker
Can we all admit that Animals and Nature is the most based board?
Zachary Kelly
Thanks, CNN
Caleb Harris
Legitimately how do I leave? I could just leave and not want to come back but then I’m 6 hours there’s nothing stopping me from just coming back anyway. What do I do?
Isaac Morgan
If you're still reading this, I'm proud of you OP. Also get out what the fuck are you doing
Adam Lopez
go read a book go make some music go jerk off go do fucking anything ANYTHING but dont participate in this shit hole
Evan Rodriguez
gamergate and r/thedonald changed things drastically
we had a year of nonstop anita sarkeeeeesssshhhhhhian posting and now we have nonstop trump worship/tranny hate. in every thread on every board
i genuinely remember a time when topics wouldn't get derailed and when bait threads would get closed
Jason Ramirez
This pasta is at least 10 years old
Alexander Sanchez
dood i'm here because I can't go outside
Zachary Phillips
There's plenty of nonsense posted by the left on here too. Both are guilty of constantly inciting arguments.
Jaxon Campbell
you think we haven't been trying to leave all this time?
Michael James
this lmao
Ayden Foster
Speak for yourself. Yas Forums is a nice supplement to my busy life and I always have pleasant and reasonable interactions here. Plus the culture and anonymity make it cooler than any other internet cesspool.
>You are addicted to [...] pressure free social interacton Damn straight
Juan Ross
this reads like a pleA for help to yourself. maybe you’re struggling with these issues and you can’t navigate Yas Forums properly but please don’t project this into others in a lengthy blogpost. It reeks of the narcissism you claim to oppose
Tyler Rogers
le narcissim wah wah
Elijah Rogers
it almost feels bad keeping Yas Forums on and around. it's like a dog that you've had since you were a kid, and you know they're sick and old and miserable, but you just can't find it in you to do the right thing and put them down.
Completely right on all points; I concluded much the same years ago. There's no point trying to be an insightful or helpful poster either.
But sometimes I have a few minutes to kill while I'm waiting on something, and there's nothing else to do. I scroll through the catalog looking for something mildly interesting, give up and move on.
Joshua James
The sad part is I recognize this pasta I'm trying to leave but I fucking can'ttttttttt AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Daniel Lee
Yes
Grayson Reed
the only thing keeping people here is mental illness
